This is how you narrate a video. Clear directions, points of interest and no overbearing music. Nice drone video as well. Thanks. New subscriber.
Thank you
Was a lot of fun to be part of this project. If you haven't been on this trail yet, you just gotta go for the scenery.
Couldn't have done it without you buddy!
Did this a week ago and it was amazing. My first time off roading. Drove from Indianapolis to Zion. Well worth it.
very cool, make sure you post up some photos on our website. We would love to see them.
only 35 seconds in but I am already in awe of the production quality. Great work guys!!
Thank you for the kind words.
I lived in Moab from 1990 through 1998. Sure miss all the four wheeling in my Jeep and the beautiful scenery.
Where are you at now?
@@Trailsoffroad St. George
I wish I could give more than just one thumbs up!
Thanks! We appreciate that!
This is by FAR the best video yet from Trails Offroad! The drone footage was excellent. The commentary was so so much better than the other videos! Thank you for not saying, "so stay tuned, let's continue on!" 😉 We'll be in Moab at the end of April so subscribed to TO and doing the research now. Great job guys! This is the best offroad video from a cinematography stand point!!
Thank you for watching! Enjoy your trip to Moab, it is such an amazing place.
Agreed
I second that, best movie I have seen so far
i dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any tricks you can give me
@Iker Salvador Instablaster :)
Amazing Trail and A Wonderful Guide. THANKS!!!
Thank you for watching. We tried our hardest to capture the beauty of this trail.
amazing
Thank you
GO
What a great trail that we love! We hope you enjoy this video :)
damn you guys really stepped up with the production value
Thanks for noticing, and thanks for watching!
We are heading to moab this fall. THIS place looks like a must see trail. Thx for showing it
Thank you for watching. Check out our website for more details.
this is one of the better videos of Trails off road due to the detailed nature of it. Alot of the videos are short and miss laot of the details but I still love Trails off road but this one in particular is well done
We appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching!
My wife and I did Chicken Corners in October. We had lunch at the flat area before the actual Corners. Across from there, you can see Potash Rd and if you go to Dead Horse Point, you can see the Corners from there. Super nice area.
Potash is such a great road too!
This is a great "must do" trail, with incredible scenery and views. The best beginner trail in Moab.
Totally agree!
Shafer is pretty good too.
@@UTAH100 Differences between the two?
@@steveludwig4200 I just prefer it. Both are good. I give the edge to Chicken Corner, even if you only go in as far as the pass (top with the view.) I find Chicken Corner to be a little more scenic and more interesting. There are long stretches, better overlooks, wind caves and at the end, chicken corner which is really cool. Shafer is just a long, nice trail. Has some views towards the end as well. Both are great and you should do both.
Ideally do both. Are you planning to visit? Watch some videos online. With either, and especially if you continue passed the pass to the corner, do be careful around some of the turns. There are big drop offs and not guard railings. Never drive to close to the edge. Moab has red mud. The top can look dry but it can be wet an inch down so your truck can continue to slide.
So many trails in Moab and so little time! And that is what makes Moab so great, there is always something to come back for even if it is to run a trail, you've done before, the other direction. This is an excellent video, Thanks so much. I hope you do more like it in the future.
That is EXACTLY how we feel lol :)
We love that trail. The drop off is awe inspiring.
Great narration.
Thanks for watching!
Wow! Breathtaking.
Thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Thank you for all the great info!
Sure thing, Let us know what you think.

Great video guys! Thanks a bunch, I've been dreaming of doing Moab for years and you just inspired me to work harder on making it happen.
Moab is a great place! Our favorite times to go are spring and fall. It gets hot in the summer! Thanks for watching!
This is beautiful. I can't wait till my jeep is built and delivered. Moab is on my bucket list.
A ton of fun. Don't forget to check out our app or website to help build out your plans for the area.
Bravo! You just raised the bar for videos on Trails Offroad. We watched it three times. We alway passed on these trails as they were rated as easy. Now we have changed our plans to include these trails in our up coming trip. Thank you.
Glad you liked it. Thank you for watching. Don't forget to post up a trip report on our website after you run it. We would love to see some pictures from your trip.

I ran this trail today on my Kawasaki Klx230 thanks to your video. Beautiful views everywhere, i would not have known Catacomb rock was there thank you!
Head over to our website and leave a trip report. the link is in the video description above.
We just did this last week! My family of 14 with 4 jeeps did Hurrah Pass and ended at base camp. We met the friendly and hospitable couple in their private home. It was a bit confusing on which way to go to Chicken Corners which was our intended destination. Nevertheless it was an amazing family adventure of a lifetime to experience what we drove! I’m a happy 71 yo grandma! Great video! Thank you!
very fun sounding. For clear directions on this trail and many others. check out our website. let us know what you think?
We're so excited to be going to Moab for the first time in our first Jeep this week! We will be staying at the Base Camp Adventure Lodge, too! This video is an amazing view of the area. Thank you for the guided tour.
Keep an eye out for us
Awesome job you guys! Gonna have to check that one out.
Thanks for watching Cory!!
Wow, absolutely awesome video!
Thank you
Amazing video, really takes me back to the first time I was shown this trail by Todd several years ago. Catacomb Rock is a must see on the trail. Can’t wait to check out the next video, the production is great!
Thank you for watching
Just went on this trail today! It’s amazing 👏👏👏
Couldn't agree more
Thanks so much for sharing your captures. Excellent cinematography and way to capture the emotion! We're headed there in October and can't wait!
Chicken Corners is one of our all-time favorites! Leave a trail review when you complete it. We would love to see your adventures!
Wow absolutely gorgeous scenery that’s definitely a must do excellent job on the video, believe the green diamond engine was international great stuff guy’s thanks for sharing as always be safe 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching Steve!
I've done the usual trails in Moab, the next time I'm in Moab I will have to run this one.
A thumbs up for the video 👍
Its a classic :)
Fantastic video guys!
Thank you for watching
Beautiful shot! Like the footage!
We appreciate you! Thank you :)
I rode the whole trail on a mountain bike, but honestly, the views taken from above make the trail seem much more scary in some places than it in reality is. Beautiful shots from the sky, thank you!
Hahahaha, Thank you. What did you think of the trail and the scenery?
i love the bypasses! makes the trail slightly spicier!
Alternate options are always a fun way to spice up a trail. What is your favorite on this one?
Totally agree this is a great 1st trail in Moab. Did this in my Grand Cherokee before I got my JLUR, & had no issues. The wind caves are awesome & the views speak for themselves. Love the drone shots!
It's one of our all-time favorite trails in all of Moab. Thanks for watching!
What an awesome video... I especially liked the drone footage.... I live in Colorado and have never explored Utah but in my old age I can enjoy it because of adventures like this...thank you
Its never to late to go off-roading. We wheel with people that are in their 80's and 90's.
Perfect timing. We are headed up through Colorado and into Utah at the end of May on a major overlanding trip and this is one of the trails on the list in the Moab area. Honestly one of the best videos you guys have posted thus far!
When are you coming throw Colorado to Moab?
Enjoy your trip and thanks for watching!
Great video! Love this trail. Still memorable from 4 years ago when our family went. My kids and wife hit their fear limit riding some of the thinner stretches along the edge and we were prevented from completing the trail by a herd of cattle that blocked the way ahead. Dozens of cattle. Many perched precariously on the ledges below the trail. We waited for quite sometime but they weren't budging, so we did a 3 point turn around on a wide corner and headed back. Still, a very fun and definitely memorable trail!
Those cows
Great video! I’m just headed home from Moab today. I did Chicken Corners yesterday in a rented Unlimited Rubicon. Definitely the highlight of my week.
Love hearing that. Don't forget to post up a trip report of what you think on our website.
GREAT JOB!!! WE can’t wait to drive this trail in October of
2021!
October is such a nice time of year there too!
Did you love it?
Wow. Really nice video.
Thank you
Awesome video!
Thanks for watching!
Nice video, we did this in a CAN AM XL, faster than we should have for two old guys, but a hoot of fun, and the scenic value is insane!
Sounds fun... If you took any photos, post them up on our website
Fantastic. I will be out that way in May for Overland Expo West. I am putting Chicken Corners on my must do list!
You will have a blast.
We did this in November of 2020 and loved it. Met a gentleman that was walking his tortoise. He said they walk 2-3 miles on that road every day. It was great!
There are some awesome and interesting characters out there for sure! Thanks for watching!
They also jump from the big rock you pass on the way- Tombstone rock. That name tells me to stay on the ground.
@@Trailsoffroad Yes. Met some homeless people just walking around deep into various canyons. Truly off the grid folks.
Amazing Work ✌️
Thanks for watching!
Done chicken corners once before and this really made me want to do it again.
Thank you for watching. Post up your trip on our website in the trip reports. We would love to see the photos.
I wish I had seen your video earlier, we made a u-turn right before Hurrah pass... missed such a great views. Added to my TODO list for the next Moab trip. Great footage and production.
Just a good reason to go back. Head over to our website for more details on this trail and many more. The link is in the description above.
Great video, excellent job with the drone shots. Really well done!
Thank you. What was your favorite part?
Superb job filming cheers
Thank you
Your video presentation was the best. I enjoyed it
We appreciate that. What part did you enjoy the most?
One of the best trails on planet earth.
Post up some photos on our website if you haven't already of your trips
Awsome....
I just arrived from moab
Chicken corner was my first trail we did.
I subscrib to your chanel because i am amaze how good you are as film maker...
Can't wait to see your other adventure
Thanks for watching Mike! Chicken corners is an all-time favorite. Make sure you head over to the website to find more awesome trail information!
We are planning to come over to Utah next year hope to see you guys there
Keep an eye out
Can't wait to take my first real off road capable vehicle on this trail. Looks just right to push the comfort level of a novice with a Jeep Gladiator on 35's
You will love it. Then after post up a trip report and share with us what you think.
Cool video! Would love to see more content like this from you guys. Your normal trail videos are great but sometimes they don't quite do the trails justice.
Thanks for the feedback! We completely agree with you - this is the direction we are working towards. Thanks for watching!
Great video and brings back great memories of our time in Moab. We did this on a rented UTV - our first time ever doing such a thing - and it got us hooked. Next time we go back we're gonna try and do this in the big Superduty :P
Love it! Take some photos and leave a trail review!
Very well done video. This trail fits me for my upcoming solo trip to Moab since I am a "chicken" novice.
Its best to never travel alone, but the area is extremely beautiful.
Wow, I missed that one. Added to my TODO list, thanks! Great movie BTW.
Just a good reason to go back. Head over to our website for more details on this trail and many more. The link is in the description above.
@@Trailsoffroad Yep, I am going back in September, it wasn't on my initial list, but I just could not pass it and wait for another trip. Can't wait.
I would also call it a right of passage trail
I love that trail
What is your favorite part?
Beautiful. Ill be there later year on a bike w/ passenger on the back
nice, sounds like a good way to go. Make sure you post up some pictures on our website.
i love this place so much and drone shots is superb i put your on my featured channel one of your top fans now!
Awesome, thank you!
Can't wait for my trip to moab.. we head out in June 2022. Chicken cornors is one of the trials I wanna go on i Can't wait..
You will love it. Make sure you post up a trip report afterwards. The link to the trail page is in the video description above.
Did you have fun? Did you do H*lls Revenge and Shafer Trail and Long Canyon? If not, start planning for trip #2. I will be coming up on trip #7.
@@UTAH100 had a freaking blast out there i did hell's revenge with a tour group called extreme 4x4 adventures they was awsome then in my truck we hit chicken cornor Onion creek then onion creek turned into 2 other trails can't remember the names. Went over to Ken's lake found a water fall just had a absolute blast...
@@Bennett-xo6iu Great to hear. So you understand why I have been there 6 times! Always wanted to do Onion Creek- it's on my list. Next time you can explore Long Canyon and venture into Kane Creek- but it gets tricky if you go in too far...like most trails in MOAB. Then there is the whole Mill Canyon area.
@@UTAH100 I can absolutely see why. Where is long canyon and kane creek located.. wonder how close I was to being on them. Hell I might of lol..
The video themselves were easy to watch, no fast panning, no jerky movements. Your videos caught the scenery on a grand scale. These scenes also included the trail venture itself
Thanks for watching! Chicken Corners is definitely a trail that deserves to have its epic scenery showcased in a big way.
@Trailsoffroad 3 years ago I drove my wk2 from Florida to Moab and did Fins and Things Trail. The wk2 had a 4-inch Air Lift that was helpful. But I soon came to understand the need for a spotter on the tough parts of the trail. Of course the wk2 came out a little beat up but I enjoyed it. Now I watch programs about Jeep in Moab to see how lucky I was that I didn't roll it or lay it on its side.
WOW just WOW
Amazing trail isn't it?
GO
Hope to take the EarthCruiser on this trail in May, thanks for the excellent video
Should be a great time! Thanks for watching!
Wow 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you and thank you for watching
Excellent video!
This is on my list for this September.
You will have fun. Post a trip report once you are done.
Don't skip H*lls Revenge and Shafer Trail and Long Canyon.
@@UTAH100
I'm definitely doing Shaffer trail and The White Rim trail. (Got permit months ago).
Not sure about Hells Revenge yet.
@@GATORADDAM You will love all of it. So no UTV's allowed on Shafer since it's IN the Island in the Sky district of "Canyonlands National Park." You are supposed to pay a park entrance fee. There are two parks in the area, Canyonlands and Arches. You can get a pass that covers both parks for a 12 months. You will likely want to come back so that could be the better value. I've been 6 times.
If you go UP Shafer (from Potash), you can come DOWN Long Canyon. Look into that. Or you could go UP Long Canyon and Down Shafer.
White Rim is fine but I usually only go on it a short way to Muscleman Arch then I turn back.
You do NOT want to skip H*lls Revenge. You can do it as a tour where they drive you in their 4x4 or you can follow a guide in a UTV. For your first time, driving alone in your vehicle will be properly intimidating...even right out of the gate from the parking lot. It's exciting. I've done it twice. As long as I take my time and go slow, it's fine. I also stick to the main safari route and I don't hit the optional obstacles.
Definitely grab the guide book Moab UT Backroads & 4-WHeel Drive Trails. It's a life saver.
Great places to eat are Gilibertos (Mexican), The Jailhouse Cafe' (Breakfast) and the Quesadilla Mobilla Food truck- on the corner near Jailhouse Cafe.
Hydrate a lot when you are out there- then hydrate some more. If you like hiking- Delicate Arch and also Morning Glory Arch which is just down Rt. 128- it's not in the park but worth checking out. The drive down 128 is cool too.
If you have any questions about the area, let me know. Where are you staying?
@@UTAH100
A lot of great info. Much appreciated.
I'm coming all the way from Central Florida so it is most likely a one shot deal.
I'm driving a 2019 Tacoma TRD offroad 3 inch lift on 33s with skids and sliders.
It's a month long trip starting with a return to the San Juan's in Colorado to meet up with some folks and do a few trails there including my 3rd run of Black Bear pass. Then on to Utah.
My rig is nicely set up for wild camping with rooftop tent, awning, fridge and stuff. So most of my nights will be camping.
I've seen videos of Hells Revenge and I'm not sure I'm up to that one. I have to drive my rig 2500 miles home when the trip ends.
I really want to do top of the world but that one looks pretty rough on a vehicle as well. But that picture on the edge of the cliff at the top might be worth it. It would go nicely with the picture I have on Poser rock on Imogene pass!
Cool vid!
Thank you
I just got back from Moab and the trail was in worse shape than it looked in your video, especially once you started headed down the shelf road after Hurah Pass. Those tight corners were definitely uncomfortable in a crewcab F250 haha. Some spots the rear tire was partially hanging over the edge and the front end was within inches of the rock face. Even with that pucker factor it was absolutely worth it!
Sounds like a great trip. If you took any photos or video, post them up on our website in the trip report section. We would love to see it.
inspired ✨
Love it!!!! Let us know what you think after
From the parking spot at the end of the trail there is a short hiking trail that leads west around the corner for a different view. But it is VERY narrow with huge drop-offs.
That is one sketchy-looking hiking trail lol.
Excellent video! I've done Chicken Corners many times. Did you stop at BASE CAMP and visit the guy with the pet land turtle?? Beautifully done and really brought back many positive memories. God bless our beautiful America!!! Semper Fi....
We had no idea there was a pet turtle back there! You're 100% right, America is an absolutely beautiful place to explore, especially by 4wd vehicle! Thanks for watching!
I love it I work at Basecamp
I think you win the "best commute to work" award!
Beautiful video, well done! Can’t wait to check it out. What is the “not busy time” to go?
Anymore, it seems to always be busy. Closer to late winter, or early spring, but snow can fall. Late fall/early winter is good too! A trick is to start early to beat the crowds- even if it's the busy season, which is how we do it.
We did this in a 2014 Honda CRV AWD. Some bottom scraping, but it was fun. We didn’t lower the tire pressure to keep the ride height as high as possible.
sounds like a fun trip
I need to go back on this trail. Seems i missed a lot since i ride alone
There's almost too much to see! Thanks for watching!
I worked at basecamp adventure lodge (you might have stopped by) but there was just a truck 2023 Ram just went off of the edge on the potash side of hurrah
I hope they are safe. A few of those turns are no fall zones...
I live this trail. Near the end is a stone memorial with a metal sign. It's for the sheriff Richard Westwood. He was my great great grandfather and died, from falling off his horse and broke his neck. I visit yearly with my entire family to go and see it. I highly suggest this trail as a local and suggest anyone to try it.
Wow, some great history. Thank you for watching
Loved this video. I've been looking at drones with cameras. Would you mind letting me know what you shot this with? Amazing!!!!
DJI Mavic 2 maybe pro I believe it was
Woah! Who are you, and what have you done with my normally informative, if not dry videos.... Just Kidding. GREAT vid.
Hahaha! Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching!
This indeed look's like a O.P.S Trail 🤔 Old Pot Smoker's Trail 😊
Hahahaha, you have any documentation on that?
@@Trailsoffroad over 50yrs. And Still Cruzzzing the Dirt road's ✋😎✌️
@@Trailsoffroad over 50yrs. And Still Cruzzzing the Dirt road's ✋😎✌️
Best camera work I have seen from your videos. Heading out there in a couple of weeks. Any tips on filming?
The more you are outside the vehicle, the better the footage will be.
