Return to the Lost Coast - An Overland Journey
Просмотров 18 тыс.Месяц назад
Join OTG and our friends, as we return to our spiritual home, northern California's Lost Coast. During the 1930s, this stretch of coastline was deemed to rugged, so highway engineers diverted Highway 1 inland. The decision led to the depopulation of local communities, leading to its name, the Lost Coast. During our adventure, we'll drive 300 miles deep into the Redwood Curtain exploring the Los...

awesome !
epic...thanks for sharing
We were in the area same time as you but didn't go for the Lost Coast, wish we had. Noyo Fish Company was awesome. Got the fish and chips. So much food! It was definitely cool along the coast and hot inland. Tricky to fine a nice medium. But we did! Really loved this video and damn, now I gotta go back!
I highly recommend reading Wild Trees--how Hyperion was discovered.
Really enjoyed your video however, your music is louder than your narration. Struggled to hear what you were saying.
Awesome video! I was wondering if there are routes I can go on with a third gen Tacoma Trd sport.
Not That Great we have had 1 replaced within 6 Months Now the other one has broken internally in the legs and the welds are stating to brake Front. Runner have supplied a Repair kit. that requires Drilling out Rivets and the need to re fit Rivets not that easy when your not a Metal worker They did not respond in reference to the welds braking Very Expensive to Fail so Quickly
I hope you didn't give your dog a burger with garlic in it!
I love these videos, and I get it, but all they seem to do is make all these places packed with more people, defeats the whole purpose of "getting away"
You don't show anything very "technical" would this be doable with an AWD 2022 Highlander without sustaining any damage?
Great video Ben - I like the new mapping visual aids you implemented. Videos keep getting better and better. We hope to go through some of this area next August... With a lot warmer temperatures I'm sure!
That river was telling you to tenkara fly fish.
When did you take this trip? We are riding this in about 5 weeks and it looks like the road conditions are good after last seasons rain?
@@99SSC July. You can expect all of the Usal bumps along Usal Road.
Thank you this is exactly what I needed, I have a bone stock Lexus GX 470. I like the idea of a 1 day trip at first and then go from there,
Be sure to check out our site. Tons of great info over there, and we've got more and more free events on our calendar as well ;)
Hoping to make it west with my FJ soon from the East Coast. Mojave is on my list. Is this or Mojave road more worth it?
I'd recommend joining our community forums on our website. Great place to ask a lot more questions. If I was driving from the East Coast with limited time, I'm not sure Mojave Road or the EMHT would be at the top of my list, also depends when you're traveling.
@@OverlandTrailGuides will do! Not much on the East Coast right now that i cam afford at least! Expensive guided trips
fyi onx offroad only lets you upload gpx up to 4mb... you PCT ca route is 11(6mb track only)... cant upload to onx
please file a support ticket on our website. There are workarounds for OnX's 4mb cap.
Hello. May I ask what website or from where did you purchase the land. What are your thoughts on Zillow or landwatcher? Thank you!
I've got a dog named Shasta (and Sierra) and she is my second dog named that in 20 years.
That's the country's most beautiful river..and it's in my neck of the woods.
I have that compressor. How’s your heat with it running that long. I melt hoses with it regularly. I’d imagine if I tried to do 4 at one time it would melt the hose every time.
such good content!! love the videos!
Is that first dirt road pictured off of Hwy 20 the top of Little Lake Road? Just moved here from the Bay Area!
you got it! Lots of mountain biking trails in Jackson Demo as well. Congrats on making the move- wish we were out that way but not til the kiddo is off to college!
Great video. I have a couple of questions; - Would it make much of a difference in using a 3/8 hose instead? - I looked on amazon and there are many different styles of locking air chucks, how does a person choose? - when determining air hose length, my truck is a GM crew cab with a 6ft 10 box (similar to yours?), would I be safe in buying a 50 ft hose Thanks in advance.
Very clean. Seeing this makes me double take buying the pre-made kit from some of the Van upfitters -- where they're charging almost $500. Granted, they're running steel-braided lines and everything is cut perfectly for a Sprinter but I feel I could easily DIY this myself after seeing this.
Yikes, $500?! I thought the $250 setup I was looking at was expensive. I guess they figure if someone is going to spend $150-$200k + on a new van, then $500 is nothing. People need to be just a tiny bit frugal with some of these purchases. $500 is just bonkers!
@@OverlandTrailGuides Agree. Thats why I built my van myself - allowed me to really save money and make it my own. I hope to make it on a trip with you all soon. Sadly, I can't make the Lost Coast trip coming up but hope to see you all soon. Really dig the videos and adventures you all promote.
Great detailed video & thank you for including the links for all the parts.
Wow, this is awesome, I love being able to just make things yourself and being self reliant. Thank you for making these awesome tutorial and how to videos, have learned so much.
It's a fun project and pretty satisfying knowing you built something that works just as well as the "pro" version but spent way less money. I took it step further and did my own onboard air system like the Rago Fabrication "Wifey" system. More work, but just as fun and satisfying. Faster to deploy and a lot less to pack and store than the 4-tire system.
Built a similar setup. So easy and affordable if you're in the market. I think I calculated mine at about $105 in parts. I bought the 100' hose ($37) because I was going to make one for a friend. I opted for a slide valve ($13 for 2) instead of the ball valve and a 2.5" glycerin filled gauge ($14). The advantage of the slide valve is it allows you to check pressure while you're airing up without having to shut off your compressor. Works great for portable compressors or OBA without a pressure switch. I also attached the chucks directly to the "T" to eliminate the extra hose. You can get reusable hose end fittings like the ones that came on the hose for about $3 each from JB Tools. Search "LEGACY RP900250 END HOSE FITTING 1/4." Gives it a cleaner look, if that matters to you.
Any reason why you aired down for Usal beach? I went out there in a Camry a couple months ago without issue.
@@ProclaimedHERETIC have you been past Usal Beach? The road is extremely rough from Usal to 4 Corners. It simply makes sense to air done as soon as we hit dirt for improved rode and less abuse in these vehicles suspension and drivetrains.
Nice! Very nice video! Hey Ben, Rod the new owner of that Lexus wants to say "Hi" to you😃. That's a very capable rig with it's centralized locker. See you on our Shasta - Lost Coast event 👍😃.
fyi onx offroad only lets you upload gpx up to 4mb... you PCT ca route is 11(6mb track only)... cant upload to onx
Add Avenza Maps to your arsenal. It allows you to download (most for free) geo-referenced PDFs Motor Vehicle Use Maps published by the National Park Service which show the latest official park roads, vehicles allowed, and dispersed camping information. Yes, GAIA has these shown, but, the MVUMs show vehicle types and dates open MUCH better.
Pretty much our backyard. We did it on Honda 70's last year for a change of pace and were lucky enough to score the barn at Needle Rock .

So damn beautiful I had too subscribe Thanks for sharing 🙏🔥💪
Those trees are incredible breath taking 🔥💪
I drove my prius to whiskey ridge viewpoint a few summers ago. Such a beautiful drive. Stock prius got there no problem...
@@matty.3696 if you swing around from the whiskey peak side, it’s not the wide dirt roads you likely took ;)
@@OverlandTrailGuides yeah I came from Applegate lake I believe to the north
looks like a fantastic trip! loved the vid❣
Moving to Napa end of August and recently became a paid subscriber and really love the routes AND the videos!! I think it would be really cool if you fdid a short video telling us more about yourself and how you decided to launch this business and channel! Thanks again for this wonderful resource!!
it was a hobby that turned into a business, and the channel came later. We certainly use RUclips for marketing, but I don't consider myself a content creator, at least that's not my sole gig!
@@OverlandTrailGuides Thanks! Keep em coming!!!
Hello, does the trail only go One direction? Or is there traffic going south and north?
Love it. I'm sure it will come with a bigger solar/inverter option. It needs a storage box in the void behind the fridge.
Whats the minimum clearance required to do this trail?
Do you have a link for the water tank? Thx!
It was a DIY project. Followed these instructions ruclips.net/video/Rk4EDT-ZRzA/видео.htmlsi=Y1GBPErNBGbIrTS7
Watching this video I was a bit concerned my van would not fare well with all the overhanging limbs on Usual Road that appear to be quite low. I've got a lifted Econoline with a pop-top & skybox. I'm at 10'-6" tall. I think I'm a bit taller than a high roof Sprinter, but am not sure... Any thoughts from those that have done this road recently in a tall'ish vehicle? THX
@@glenstanley2208 we’ve done the entire stretch with a high roof sprinter in the group. You will undoubtedly pick up a few pinstripes and hit some low hanging branches along the way ;)
Yeahhhhh buddy! Livin the dream.
Hello 👋🤗❤❤
Nice. You added a little bit to it. I did your route last summer and it was amazing. Thanks again.
Great video, just watched your more recent trip! Was curious how the sprinter van handled this trip compared to the landcruiser or your new cummins?
Can a sprinter van take usul rd down to the beach also ?
4x4 or AWD recommended, and you should be able to do the entire route. Just don't drive on the beach/sand as not permitted by CA State Parks ;)
Quality video production! Very nice work.
I love the fish and chips at Noyo Harbor! The lost coast is a fantastic place to be. Great video, thanks for sharing!
