- I have been wanting to explore Slick Rock trail for a long time and finally my good friend Marco, Ali and I headed to Northern California to explore a few local trails with some good friends. We ventured off onto Sour Grass, Slick Rock and Deer Valley. We found some amazing camp sites, wheels our Jeeps hard, ate some great camp food and had a couple challenges along the way. #jeep #offroad #camping

I enjoy the support you give Marco. You obviously don’t take his cooking and friendship for granted.
Gringos unite
sorry to be offtopic but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Raiden Mateo instablaster =)
@Ali Arturo i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Ali Arturo It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
Awesome video as always bud. We put lots of money into my wife’s JLU to make it off-road worthy, and she cried the first time we scraped the frame 😂 your old videos inspired me to pick up one of my own, last week I grabbed an XJ! I’ve already got it lifted 4.5”, going on 32s soon so I can hit the trails without her crying 😂
camaroboi13 if your going off road, prepare for some damage. Either wheels, sliders or something is bound to get a scratch
@@Oh_that_1_dude oh trust me I'm more than prepared for it...she's not though lol. That's why I bought the XJ, so I can beat it up a little and not feel bad because I didn't spend 40 grand on it 😆
Every time I get done watching a video that has Marco in I’m hungry.
Awesome, people, great food, friendship, scenery and the Jeeps that make it all possible. Wonderful.
Marco is always the star of the show. He’s awesome. I bought his cook book; love it
Me too, can’t wait for it to show up in a few days. Brad thanks for sharing Marco with us, and Marco, thanks for sharing your book with us too!
flynbenny cook book?
Alfonso Casillas yes, here you go: www.blurb.com/b/9645834-the-overland-cook
Where can I get his cookbook? Dude is a straight up chef!
Here you go. www.blurb.com/b/9645834-the-overland-cook
I need a marco!!! He seems like a really awesome guy, especially him being a vegetarian and cooking all that meat for everyone else and having as much passion for it as he does, even tho he doesn't eat the meat.
you dont need a marco, you need to be the marco
Beautiful place to wheel thanks Brad I enjoy you videos
it really was an amazing place to wheel! thank you!
TrailRecon you no that as much I love wheeling I’ve never been to beautiful places like that, where I live in Texas there’s not much to do but to wheel at south Padre island , which just sand, but I’ll be planning soon to go to somewhere in Colorado
Thanks Brad and say hello to Marco : )
Marco is a must on all your videos! great Guy.
Marco is the man. Brad, you’re alright too. 😆
HAHA! He is the man!
@@TrailRecon
That's allright, you can be the "best" man, for when Marco marries this channel. 😁
That was a great bunch of guys to wheel with. I just loved the respect they showed on the trails. No hot doging it that could mess up the trail. KUDOS to these guys. And that burrito looked fabulous. What lovely scenery, thanks for sharing ... Vic
Vic Miller thanks 🙏🏽
#treadlightly
I love every shot when you get out the Jeep and show the Jeeps plowing through and how you capture the scenery too. Some shots be so incredibly beautiful.
U know it. Loved it myself.
It was a great trip! So glad to have gotten a chance to wheel with you, Marco, and Ali. Such an unforgettable trip cemented with great documentation.
You and Marco are my HEROS! What a great video. Awesome footage, editing and commentary! I so wish I was on that trail run with such a great group of people. Love the off road trailer, love taking the harder lines, love the advice on getting through some of the obstacles, love the group helping those who need help on the trail. Subscriber for life....Brad, Marco...you are both the "A Team" of sharing what Jeeping is all about. I'm 59....but....Someday I hope to grow up to be like you.
Where is the TrailRecon Cable Channel???
Thank you so much!
We were camped at Mosquito lake when we saw you guys drive by on highway 4. Love this area.
Marco needs his own cooking show and you could call it, trail rated foods or trail rated meals.
@@kg2995 TrailGrub! ?
@@kg2995 Good one!
I hope the people that are eating are helping pay for the food
@@Bama1963 they probably are or are making it up with bringing other stuff in the budget like firewood or something
"Meals on offroad wheels" lol
Your channel is the BEST! My husband and I love watching all you post. It's like "date night" every time you upload a new video! Thanks, Brad!
I would have never imagined they would be date night worthy... thank you so much!
Great experience , thanks for sharing.
Your videos are very well edited.
Thank you!
Like always awesome video. Ordering Marcos cookbook. You guys are always eating 5 star meals on the trails.
Wish we could have heard some of that brainstorming that was taking place after that break. I know you explained the fix but it is nice to hear experience and reasoning. Great video, as always. You have been getting up north, near my area (still south of me but within a days drive!!) and have been showing me spots that I MUST get to. Thanks for your content!
Good to see the wrangler back in action
Going out again soon!
You know what would be awesome, is if you could show a pic of the clinometer indicating the angle of those steep climbs the jeeps are making. So hard to get a real perspective of just how steep they are.
Ray Walkerdine yessss
I wish every group had a Marco. That guy is very skilled at what he does.
I'm agree with another subscriber. Marco needs a cooking channel. Great video Brad as usual and thanks for sharing.
The Wrangler has returned, Silver. I missed seeing the Wrangler, she's beautiful
Big sexy
I always enjoy your videos. Keep it coming.
HOLY SMOKES! That field repair! Man, Wish I had some bros to ride with like that!
Powertank Steve came in clutch!
MarioLoco03 glad I have these dudes as my friends who helped me fix it!
This trail went on my nomadic life itinerary. We're building a 40 foot pusher skoolie to live in and travel, and plan to tow an overlanding Jeep for general needs and short duration side adventures. This video was quite inspiring. My kind of place with the water features and forest.
Just did a 3 trail trip a few weeks ago! South to north. Slick rock>deer valley>strawberry. Just a fun 3 day trip.
Awesome! I can't wait to go back.
Watch for Marco. Every. Single. Time.
Jason Edwards Thank you!
You are my Netflix period...Thank you sooo much for the amazing videos. Watching you guys all the way from Brazil.
So great to hear you are enjoying the videos, thank you!
For me, this it it. My soul lives somewhere just like this. Really enjoyed this episode.
Slick Rock is such an awesome trail. Glad you finally got to run it!
I’ve been a fan for a while awesome videos I did notice that you served as a Corpsman Semper Fi
Great video the comments you make Brad about the area are fully justified just beautiful, the driving skills were great to watch. One again you found an awesome group to share your experiences with. ATB
Great video guys. Awesome trails and great cooking from Marco👍😎🇳🇿
You are in my old stomping grounds! I love wheeling on the trails around Bear Valley. If you like the Slick Rock Trail there are a network of fire road that started around Camp Connell and end near Silver Lake on HW88. Or you can take them all the way to Stawberry which is off of US50 (just south of Tahoe).
Tank you my frind god bless you alls ways👍🤝🥇💪🇺🇸
You were in my back yard, glad you had a good time. Slick Rock is my favorite trail up there! I LOVE that trail. It has a little of everything, water crossing, water fall, rocks, dirt, a river, camping sites, and amazing views! Funny thing is about 5 years ago, some buddy's and I were on the trail and a JK broke his track bar bracket in exactly the same spot as your guy. Lucky for my buddy he had just installed an on-board welder and was able to weld the bracket back on. It held up for a long time until he finally got a good proper fix for the bracket. Must be something at the top of that climb up the granite that takes out JK track bar brackets! lol
And Deer Valley is my second favorite trail up there!
I’m thinking that some kind of welder is nice to have. Thanks!!
It's refreshing seeing so many Jeeps in your group without RTTs. Your camping spots looked amazing! As much as I love Utah and Colorado I may have to venture out to northern California next summer.
Explain rtt's please
@@douglassmith8494 RTT (Roof Top Tent)
Good'ol ground tents can still get the job done. Although rtt's can provide better sleeping accommodations with mattresses and insulation.
First video i've seen where someone is driving with the windshield down... love it!
I love having the windshield down for multiple reasons. I love the fresh air in the open feeling of it. It also provides better visibility for seeing obstacles on the trail. If you'd like to see more about #jkuwindshielddown check out my Instagram page @_rubikhan_
I see a few Jeeps with no spare, did that make any of you nervous on the trail?
Kenneth Morales Knock In wood.... I never run a spare anymore. I carried one for over a year and never used it. So I decided to ditch the spare. Haven’t had a issue yet. But if I was to go on long trips, I would bring it, because you never know
@@Oh_that_1_dude that's true, the chances of getting a flat that you can't plug like a sidewall gash would be pretty low if you were super experienced like these dudes with your tire placement. But I would rather be safe than sorry lol.
You can’t see it in my Jeep (the red one) I carry a spare inside with me, so I’m covered!
I absolutely love your videos. The smile on your face and the camaraderie with everyone is amazing. Thank You for sharing!!
Thank you!
Looking like a fantastic trip Brad and as ever Marco in fine form ! Breakages are a pain but great seeing everyone pulling together and shows the value of travelling together and not alone !!
Steve Fisher wouldn’t have gotten through that without the help of everyone. And Steve’s onboard welder saved me!
@@christianfavela2810 good stuff, glad it was fixable !
Your adventure are so fun on the BIG screen and I wish the TV had a smell button Marco has out done himself. Wow great video.
You guys have the most beautiful scenery to go driving in. You guys have blessed beyond belief. Oh, before i forget, Marco Rocks.
It's great seeing yall doing some of my favorite local trails! Slick Rock and Deer Valley are among the most beautiful ive ever ran and make for a fun challenge especially when you run both in the same day
Both trails are now on my list of favorites... can't wait to go back!
TrailRecon Would be awesome to run into you out there someday. Just let me know if you ever need a local to run it with you!
@@justinhoman1593 are you in any local clubs? I'm part of railtown offroad out of tracy.
Suburban Overland im not part of any clubs, most of my wheeling is on weekdays since i cant seem to get weekends off work
Thank you Brad for another amazing adventure. It is so cool to see Marco with the manual trans getting it done on some very challenging trails, Impressive.
We had four MTs with us, the most I've ever seen in a group of Jeeps!
Brad this is like my new favorite episode. But I say that about almost every episode. Thanks for always inspiring me and my friend.
This is the type of adventure I want in my life.. Good time good place good people good food.. 👍🏻Good luck God bless you all🙏
My dad and I did slick rock and deer valley trials about 15 years ago in a 86 Toyota on 33’s with open difs and a 91 Toyota lifted on 35’s with rear locker. It was a blast. Would love to back and do it again with our new 4Runner.
Marco is a legend! keep it up, Marco!
Another great video! Thanks!
Thank you!
Wow !!! superbe !
EPIC!!! BROTHER Thank you for your amazing production!
Thank you!
It really was great production. This episode seemed a cut above. Loved it.
I wish I would have known you guys were here as you were in my back yard!!!
Raul Sandoval let me know. I’m always on that trail.
Always looks like a hoot of a good time Brad! I always get a laugh out when its time to eat, and you ask Marco, What are we eating Marco? I know it’s amazing food he cooks by the looks of it, and your reaction is always a laugh!
Rubber side down! Shiny side up...
Magical forest up there.
Awesome video and awesome friends. I think the coolest thing was the welding part. Lol
I didn't expect that. He's so awesome for doing that.
Holy Crap that is a Beautifull trail.
Awesome video as always. I’m glad to have you and the crew come up and experience the beautiful trails we have. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for showing us a new and spectacular place!
Slick Rock is an awesome trail. I'm driving a 3rd gen 4runner with a mild lift so I can't do it but I walked the trail and was amazed by the views and the campsites by the water.
My wife and I are brand new to this world, but I can tell you now that I hope we end up in a group like this, especially a group that has a Marco!
I never knew what Overlanding was until I stumbled up on your channel. I stumbled upon it while looking at Gladiator videos... anyway. This is now a new hobby interest of mine! Your channel has really opened my eyes to a new type of adventure. As a city guy from Orlando, we don’t do trail riding...
But now that I live in Tennessee, I really want to get a good Jeep and build it up and try this... I’ve watched almost all of your videos over the past week while at work and just day dreaming of being outdoors lol. Thank you for sharing brother!
That's great to hear, I hope you have many amazing adventures! Safe travels!
That orange tent looks like it has tons of interior space!
It's our Gazelle. Fantastic tent. Sets up and folds down in literally a minute. Fit three men with plenty of room. Can't recommend it enough.
From now On, I will call Marco.....SUPER MARCO for his food.
Cheers from France America
Awesome video as always. I've got to hurry up and hit the lottery so that I can get out and explore these places.
And Marco!!! Holding out on us with that recipe. I can't wait for the second edition of his cookbook. Perhaps a series of trail cookbooks?
Thanks for sharing.
You show Marco cooking a lot. Is it possible to show the clean up process? When camping on the trail with limited water be nice to see how to clean with limited supplies for the clean up.
TrailRecon videos with Marco cooking his amazing meals... Makes for a good time on a rainy gloomy day.. Thanks Brad again for the videos and food.
Marco is a true gentleman and an amazing chef! Great video. Thanks 🙏
Great place,people and food.
Marco............ that's just crazy........ crazy good!!!
So glad to see our Slick Rock trail in your videos, what an amazing that is. Nice video! I hope one day I can try Marcos delicious food.
Hi from Canada, always amaze me to see a jeep flex like that, man & machine juste wow, and respect to the little trailer jeep loll
Love Marco. Looks like such a cool dude 👊
Waldo Marco is Legit Cool.
Josh Patton plus he is rocking an awesome beard 👌
Marco is an amazing person so kind hearted and amazing cooking talent....really respect🙏👍🏻
Nice work as usual!
Amazing video from amazing people, where do i start?? You and your channel, Marco, everyone in that video... the trailer was just perfect, the whole team got together and help the broken JK.... PLEASE KEEP IT UP you make Jeeping an AMAZING CULTURE A WAY OF LIFE.
Thank you so much!
These kinds of terrains are why I watch TR. I also enjoy for destination and difficulty is “the story till now” on you tube
great video...Marco is a great man...great trails
Brad. I’m not a Jeep guy. I’m a Tacoma guy but I love your videos. Lots of things that apply across all platforms. I was wanting to meet you at expo west this past May but when I saw you it looked like you were in a huge rush to go film something. Maybe next year.
Hopefully we can connect next year! Thank you!
Marco needs to make his own Cooking Channel or show us his equipment
I've been telling him that!
I want to bee the group cook in my gang thanks to Marco and shano from Australian 4wd
I would sub instantly
Alfonso Casillas yessss! Marco the cooking and wheeling guy.
Chris Valentine I’m not a cook and a guy that likes to eat my friend that I Offroad with is the cook and I wanna keep it that way
Gorgeous Jeeps Fellows!!! California forest & rocks look amazing! Thank you Brad for another great video.
CJ the sheriff looked super happy to be there and on camera.
Awesome vid!
More info on the JK with folded down windshield. Rubikhan. Please!!
Check Erick out on IG! @_rubikhan_
Absolutely beautiful. Great video.
Im glad people are finally coming through my hometown! saw your group go by hope you guys had a blast. many new features on slick rock this year glad you had a great experience
Haze Gray and Underway! Keep on rockin’, HMCM!
Life is easy when you have good buddies.
What beautiful scenery! Can you do a walk around video of some of the other jeeps that were wheeling with you? Great videos 👍👍👍
Thanks! Hopefully we can coordinate that down the road
@@TrailRecon Please move on to 4k, you doing such nice job recording with no shakes, nice suspension shots and scenery, it could so use better detail
California dreamin of wheelin. You have the most beautiful open spaces, and your vids make it real for us on the other side of the country. Luv your production style Master Chief!
Thank you!
great vid. I've been waiting to see one of these now for a while. If this kind of video doesn't inspire one to get out and explore, eat, camp and chat around the fire, i don`t know what will.. cant wait for the next one
Thank you!
What an amazing place to wheel and another killer video Brad. Definitely and awesome crew to wheel with!!🤜🏻💥🤛🏻
I love that area around Arnold and Bear Valley. So much beautiful nature. I’ve camped at Utica and paddled my kayak there, but have never done any wheeling in the area.
Marco is such a Great guy !!
Nice to see this Brad. Its been a long time since you joined us at Anza Borrego years ago. With Mark Lang. I still drive the old wrangler X But I'm adventuring out as much as I can. We'll be doing Wheeler Ridge and Laurel Lakes in July. Mammoth lakes
So nobody is going to talk about the trailer? That thing was awesome.
I loved watching that trailer in action!
TheLegend27 Steve maneuvered that trailer like a pro. Very fun to watch it get through the trail.
TheLegend27 I tow my trailer through almost every trail I go on!! If set up properly, it is the ultimate addition to wheeling, so long as the trail isn’t too insane. Mine has been through the Rubicon, Slick Rock, parts of Fordyce, and countless other trails. Thumbs up to anyone who can tow a trailer through these trails!!
I'd like to know what type of trailer hitch he has?
This video needs to be renamed. I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched. The trailer is a mic drop moment.
Going camping up near Flagstaff this weekend, and bringing along Marco's cookbook I got a month ago
Finally gonna put one of his recipes to the test! 🤤
Great video man. Safe driving and happy times to you on the trip!
It seems to always be when something bad happens to someone's Jeep you guys find a good campsite nearby.
#luck
Love seeing Marco with his cook
