I have been out to the Ice trail. When you go more to the east and the damn creek cuts the trail off then have to find where the trail picks up then you run across a fence that you don't know whether or not that it where the trail continues beaceue it disappers. That was the only part of the Maah Daah Hey I tried and no more. Biking to me isn't having to get off your bike to find the trail because it got lost it the overgrow and cow shit. Once and done. Trails back home were much better.

Did you prefer new Mexico or arizona

The statue is the Virgin Mary and is actually a recent addition. I believe from the 1980's it was hauled up with big helicopters.

Is the trail one directional? Or can you go out the back on the same trail?

The reason the Nez Pierce crossed the rugged mountans instead of a lower easier rout along the salmon river is because the Blackfoot were set up along the Salmon . Very violent tribe. There is alot of cool indian hostory that shows in the mountains. You see alot of the tree notches in the trees the Nez Pierce used to mark their trails as well as directio.. You gota look up a ways now to see them but they can be easily seen.

You can actually ride from Ft Bayard to Pinos Altos. Or you can split off towards Bear Canyon and come back in behind the Forest Service base camp. You were riding in an actual game reserve area behind Ft Bayard, so not surprised you'd see a lot of wildlife. In the fall you will see and hear elk bugling in that area, a lot.

Question about your vehicle: hey Mr. Darren. Enjoying your video and doing a bit of planning myself. Right now, one of my biggest challenges is figuring out how shuttle. Thinking about ridding north to south (your thoughts on this choice is appreciated). But, aside from using the shuttle out of Medora, how does one get back to the vehicle? I see you had yours and would like to know how you’d arranged or planned for that. I appreciate you posting your trip/adventure.

I’ve never heard of anyone calling it the Yosemite of Arizona tbh😅 The spires remind me of Bryce Canyon but the Chiricahuas are pretty unique on their own.

hey! We dont talk funny, YOU talk funny!

Just discovered your videos and really enjoyed them. I noticed you haven't done any in a bit. That injury still holding you back?

I'm sorry you caught it on a smokey year, the trip is incredible when its clear.

Hey did use your bike on the trip, and is there any singletrack? I'm considering bringing mine on this trip in a few weeks... Similar high end bike on rack like yours...

39:18 i read that they called them ice caves because they sometimes preserve snow from the winter into the summer months

9:52 Idon't understand why bikes are banned at Teddy Roosevelt either, I understand the policy of the Park service being I used to work for the USFS, but if Badlands national Park can have an open hike policy then TDR can have bikes in the ND badlands, not much difference in landscape except the ND badlands has more vegetation. Honestly South Dakota badlands look more fragile

Great video! Any flats punctures on your trip?

Awesome video. Heading there in March 2 nights camping. Can’t wait

Looks like you barely missed “the rollercoaster” . You hit just the begining of it.. So much fun

I’ll be there next week right around the same spot. Watching these because I’m too excited to doo much else

Behind you there is the Peloncillos. There are jaguars. The Punch and Judy show has roots in the 16th-century Italian commedia dell'arte and is an ongoing tradition practiced in our motherland, England.

Nice adventure and ride. I hope you tweak your camera light placement skills.

Nice i will be moving to the area soon.

Great video dude.

Thank you so much for taking the time to film and post even though you're injured! Really appreciate t!!!

Thanks for your video Darren! The squirrel races you had to endure cracked me up. :-) I and a buddy, and maybe my brother plan to ride the Magruder Corridor on ATV's next year. I'm looking forward to it!

Also we have one more good riding area east of town called Marshall mountain, it's built on a now non operational ski hill. Pretty much a pedal yourself up bike park. Your Hightower is the perfect bike for riding there. I have a 130mm front and rear travel izzo that seems to be close to the perfect bike for missoula. If you ever make it back here I'd love to show you some of the hidden gems for trails

The blue mountain trails have names, just not on the maps up there

ruclips.net/video/LAynI5CRJIM/видео.html thank you so much for the inspiration:) we went out with some friends from Las Cruces and had a great day riding :) thank you

What do you recommend for tire pressure out there?

Awesome! Thank you for sharing your journey!

Evel Knievel was born there

Lived here many years by Turkey Creek. I was very disappointed you did not mention the Apache Indians lived here and migrated to the Occidentals Mts. in Mexico. (Ocho Naca Chiricauhua Apachu)

Its CON-CORD, NOT "Conkerd"

How much for tent camping bicycle tourists ?

You’re not in the dessert, Silver City Is over 5000 feet elevation

Thank you for this. I had planned a MDH trail ride as far back as '05, but family obligations prevented it. Now, sadly, I'm too crippled up to DO it! So I'm living vicariously through your trip video.

Thank you sir! This helps warm a cold winter day in upstate NY.

I love your Big Bend series. Watched it several times. And now I'm going down there at the end of March! I want to do what you did and swim across the river. Were you worried about getting caught by Border Patrol? I heard it could be a fine up to $5,000.00 if you cross illegally. Or was it so remote that it wasn't a worry?

that is a very fun place to ride. there are so many Hohokam Indian stuff all around Tucson, I have many videos of these places on my main channel.

My wife and I just returned from the Big Bend region. We cycled the Contrabando system in the State Park and also the Lajitas airport trail system, also a few 4 wheel drive trails in our Chevy Colorado ZR2. We viewed your series on the area before we headed down and really enjoyed your documentation of the area, as well as your videos in other regions of the U.S..( Haven't seen them all yet) It looks like the trip of a lifetime. Just wondering after all is said and done, which of all of your destinations was the most satisfying for riding your bike / and or just for overall experience? Nice work and thanks for sharing with the Y.T. community!

Thank You - Nicely done.

Another great video! I love the Big Bend area, thanks for sharing, it takes me away from my icy tomb in Michigan.

Headed there in Feb! Cockpit is so nice and clean, love it!

There’s no way that white horse was real 🤣

Hey quick question, staying here in a few weeks, how far is The Chutes from the campsite? I have an 8 year old daughter and I want to take her on a loop but am not sure how long the loop is in relation to the campsite. Checked trailforks and such, they show the loop but not the campsite, which for all I know is right next to it lol! Thanks for the vid, was good watching it a second time

Man it is so cool seeing others making videos up in the dragon fly trail area,I can no tell you how mane times I have trained for racing(and little walnut),also Aiden is a personal friend of mine and training buddy

I really love the way you give so much context including geography specifics & your passion for the Chiricahuas! I've hiked in them a few times & plan to be back there soon. Solace, serenity, wonder & inspiration. Thanks for your fine video!

The lion does not lay down with the lamb like Disney would like you to believe. In cougar country you are the lamb, your prey. Pack bear spray or arm yourself.

What a sweet place to be in the dead of winter!! Thanks again for your efforts Darrin and can really appreciate the lifestyle 😎

What tent is that!?

You took a large crash, to injure the shoulder? Did you tear the upper bicep tendon?
