Vernal, Utah - The world champions of professional rockcrawling have converged here in Eastern Utah ready for the battle on the Rocks of Vernal in search of the UROC Pro-National Championship.

Beneath the high clouds of gorgeous sky country, UROC's technical inspection and contingency went off among the Vernal locals in the parking lot of Dave's Jubilee, as the tractor trailers of BFGoodrich, Maxxis and UROC lined the perimeter of UROC's contingency area. The top teams all arrived this afternoon with the most advanced professional rock crawling rigs in rockcrawling motorsports and went through technical inspection without incident.
