I support preservation.
We had an old unmaintained road that ran through our land and others land that we allowed jerpers to travel and see the landscape. They always respected the land. This tribe of side by sides started showing up, they cut trees, burried their trash, left smoldering campfires, stacked rocks, desecrated Anasazi sites, traveled off the trail, so we built pipe gates and nobody is allowed there anymore. Jeepers were very respectful, side by side tribes tear up the land and just have no respect.
SxS here I always stay on the trail, carry a claw (no harness fuss) and bring out the trash! Most trash I found is from the sprocket head crowd..
@@SegoMan doubt it
As an old Eagle Scout we always picked up our trash and left no trace. I love to go off road and adventure, we are all responsible for the care of these areas. We need to stop condoning and ignoring those few who do most of the damage. Some RUclipsrs who like the chaos of wrecking their rigs and causing damage to trails along with going off trail giving those who want to close the areas reasons to do so. Most do not, like you and your channel. They try to be good examples for others who may visit. The future of these open areas is up to us...
None of the trail closure videos show any trash or the other reasons the B L M states the closure is about. This is all a land grab for agenda 2030 & 2050..
Given how few OHV folks fight back, or even belong to an organization its amazing that we still have a few years left at all to go into the back country. The preservationist have the money and commitment. This should have a link to Blue Ribbon.
You can leave comments all you want, the decision was already made with out you or us. And there not wrong the area is getting destroyed :(
that really sucks about how much is being closed in utah now. but those are some sweet places you guys went
Barracks trail is one of my all time favorite trails. We have done it multiple times. Hopefully it will stay open. GREAT VIDEO
I hope so too. It's such a fun trail!
That was one of the best vedio I have seen this year thank you 👍👍
thanks for supporting keeping these awesome trails available for public use
I hope we can, but unfortunately we need lots of people to give their feedback to the BLM and I think we’re in the minority.
very good my brother, thank you so much for the ride, all right
Love the content of this trip!
I have lived in Utah long enough that I see these vistas and just think “yep, that’s Utah”. It doesn’t make it any less gorgeous, but it becomes a little pedestrian when you can see things like this all the time :)
Just keep the money and use the tundra!
Lead a group a few years ago on the trail. Opposite direction. Fun trail and pretty scenery .
Great video, love white pocket for sure and such a fun drive. We rescued a sprinter van buried to the axles there last year. That will probably be one of our many destinations on the way back to Colorado from Expo West😊
It's such a cool spot!
Awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing.
Great video!! Lots of fun!
Looked like a great trip! Terrific footage, your efforts walking up that hill climb payed off! Thank you for bringing awareness of possible shutdowns to those of us that like to keep enjoying the land, respectfully of course. Keep up the fun videos Rob!
Thank you! It was a good one!
Great video! Thanks for sharing this with us! Get the 392 Rubicon. It will laugh at that hill, and you will smile all the way up.
That would be a LOT of fun, but also $$$$$
@@RevereOverland One of my favorite trails!! I have a 392 and made it up first try but momentum is definitely key!! (I have a picture, not sure how to add it to this post)
Thanks for including camp scenes for me 😂😂 awesome trip. Thanks for the great video and inspiration
Lol. Sorry I wasn’t cooking anything exotic!
Fantastic scenery. Thank you,
I really liked this video. The photography, videos and drone work are some of the best in thr business
I have done that trail many times on a dirt bike, but, I am a local boy, and i always respect the land. Sadly, there are way to many outfits on that trail these days, to many people tearing it up.
GREAT PHOTOGRAPHY!!!!!
Such an epic trip!
What an amazing trip. That entire day from doing barracks trail to watching the sunset at white pocket was incredible.
It was a fantastic trip!
Maxtrax pin key, great idea, THANK YOU!!
ordered
Thanks!
I'm a Jeep guy from waaay back but those new mini-Broncos are pretty cute. (Still a fan of the old full size Broncos 1960-70's)
After watching your videos I went out and bought a ‘16 4Runner.
All I can say is… I was left unsupervised!
I didn’t tell my wife what I was doing 😂
Anyway I’d say go with the 4Runner.
Your videos inspired me to plan a trip with my family. None of them have any clue.
Thanks for the inspiration!
I love the 4Runner! It’s a solid vehicle.
Another beautiful video, thank you Rob Not a great advert for selling a vehicle though! It’s fun to find a couple year old cream puff out there and make it your own, that is what I’d do and just did earlier this year. Let someone else take the depreciation hit. Good luck!
I look forward to your and David's @offthegrind videos. They're both always very well done. It inspires me to not just want to get out in my own rig, but to also learn to make my own content. My goal is to someday get my own channel going and start putting out my own inspiring videos.
That’s awesome! You definitely should!
Nice job!
Look, I love a good off-road outing as much as anyone. Spent much of my childhood in Jeeps, and UTVs. When these concerns started to get so heated in Moab and elsewhere in UT, I always thought "what is the big deal? Moab is a OHV town. People need to relax, they should have lived somewhere else if they have a problem." My mind has since completely changed.
This is hardly a bummer for anyone. Rather, the result of so much ignorance and abuse. What the OHV folk needed to do long ago was be better stewards of the land we are so privileged to have access to. The type of people responsible for the damages causing these preservative measures to come into play have no foot to stand on. They have nothing respectable to offer anyone. They would never be organized, nor are they the type to acknowledge a problem they are causing. They use, abuse, and leave a mess of everything in this beautiful land, yet cry when people get tired of it.
Good on the the organizations in charge of the region for stepping in and calling enough, enough.
To those outside of the off-roading world, it looks as if the "many" are ruining it for the "few". The few being those off-roaders who have any regard for preservation of the land, or those groups of riders who are organized and willing to adapt and learn. Those few good users are taking up the slack for an endless group of absolute headasses who show up, wreak havoc, leave a mess, then go home.
The many are the perfect storm of arrogant, ignorant, bros. Those who only care about the immediate thrill of ripping their machines all day long and spending their nights tossing beer cans and trash all over the local campgrounds and trails. Those who only see southern Utah as a racetrack for the extremely powerful and capable machines that continue to advance, while the land takes a beating of epic proportions. These are not the type of people who could organize anything more than a rally or a race for themselves, much less a movement to adapt and protect the playground that is rightfully being taken away from them.
As I grow to a point of wanting to enjoy nature in the least impactful ways, I am absolutely sick of the UTV, MOTO, Sur Ron/E-Bike, and ATV folk who just shred everything in southern Utah until it is a complete rutted, trashed, oil-stained, littered, dusted, washed out, ultra-loud mess for the casual observers, travelers, locals, hikers, bikers, respectful jeepers, and careful OHV users.
This goes so far beyond Utah. I am all in for preservation, including restricting access to areas that have proven to be nothing but a disaster when open to general OHV users. This will be the way until something changes. I don't think anyone should be entitled to what is essentially a right to destroy these lands, with such minimal repercussions.
Great video Rob cannot help loving Mother Earth. Thanks.
Great shots, especially of the hill climb! Totally worth your workout while I sit on the couch ;)
Financially and probably for the cross country drives the older 4runner makes sense, but I'd borrow one again first. I couldn't imagine going from the ZF 8 to that crappy trans in the 4runner again. It's reliable but man does it hunt for gears on the highways. You could do a mini-build like your Tundra with a manual Taco. Although both 3rd gen Taco trans aren't the most reliable either...
Yeah I remember how my 4Runner was underpowered and how that 5 speed hunted! I still loved it, but I’m not sure I want to deal with that again.
Makes me want to drop some big bucks for a four wheeler. I was running around the desert SW in a ‘69 GTO in the 70s. Not the same vibe but I covered allot of roads and definitely got around. I thoroughly enjoyed the YTs. Thanks!
I see your buddy that likes to cook as one of those $500 camping wok.. They look great .. but Ouch!......Pro Tip: don't use the light in the spring and summer... you'll get eaten alive.
Great video with fantastic views. I love Overlanding and the outdoors, especially state of Utah. However: I hate to say it, but that uphill Trail was being torn apart by all the jeeps and I’m sure if I was there, I would be doing the same thing, and these are some of the reasons that, these trails are being closed. Unfortunately, that is the reality. I always advocate for keeping the trails open and limit visitors with permit system rather than just closing it to everyone.
Did the Barracks Trail last year, going the opposite way ending at the Belly of the Dragon. So of course we went UP the slick rock and DOWN that steep, sandy climb. There was a bit less water in the river, also. But it was a blast and a ride I won't forget. It also seems more heavily traveled and damaged than I remember. Is that why it may be shut down?
I saw your finished interior of your Alu cabin on SHW off-roads website. Looks awesome man!! I like the layout. What did you use for your floor? Looks like bamboo flooring or something? Love the color choice and want to look into it for my Alu cabin.
Thanks! Its anti fatigue mat from Amazon
You should add an EV overlander to the mix! Like an F150 Lightning or a Rivian
That’s the plan eventually! I’m not quite ready for one though.
How do you think the Tundra would have done on that big hill?
Awesome video as usual. I am a 4Runner guy so that would be my choice. 😊
Great views!
Good episode
Great video! Glad to see you and your jeep! Those are my favorite videos of yours. Why are all the options you gave Toyotas? I would replace it with a new JL extreme. You already have a Toyota.
One of my requirements is that the replacement is IFS and has a little more storage. I have a long commute getting out to Utah to film and struggle going out with my son in the small Jeep!
@@RevereOverland Understandable. One of my requirements is lockers, sway bar release, and no IFS because we do some serious rock crawling. We load the back for overlanding but I'm not filming like you so I don't have to deal with loading camera gear.
@@alfa8822 you definitely can't beat a Jeep for rock crawling, and I'd keep it if that's what I did a lot of.
beautiful!
I really enjoyed your video, it was absolutely beautiful; thank you for sharing!
Why not a new forerunner? In that cool orange color ..
Best wishes to you and your beautiful family!
I’d love the new Land Cruiser or 4Runner, but I really don’t want that kind of payment
I just bought a 2024 4Runner Off Road Premium and I am completely in love with it. Can't go wrong with a 4Runner.
It’s a great option!
Hey man! I just found your channel, i love it! I have a question. The bag hanging from the B or C pillar. That you have your plates and garbage bags in. What is it? And where did you get it?
It’s a side stasher!
www.amaysinglife.com/sidestasher/
@@RevereOverland thank you!
White pocket is beautiful during sunset. Not as spectacular as The Wave, still very beautiful.
I'd love to hike to the Wave!
We were just out there last month. We camped by the Temple of the Sun. That first deep water crossing I remember well. It's a beautiful area and it's a shame that the SUWA is trying to shut down the Swell and parts around Moab.
Yeah they’re pushing hard for closures and have a lot of money behind them
There were plenty of opportunities for the off-road community to take a bigger stand and show that progress was being made, or stronger attempts to educate those with no regard for the land or safety. It's hardly a shame, more than it is the consequence of so much inaction at the hands of completely shiftless throng of irresponsible OHV users who ruined it for the few who still recreate responsibly and respectfully.
It sure is a beautiful area. I'm glad to hear there is a chance it'll stay that way, now that preservation is being taken seriously.
best of the best.
As a Jeep driver, I would love to see you get the new 4Runner Trail Hunter! Probably going to be expensive, but seems like it would fit your needs very well.
I’d love one!
Great video. Utah is so awesome. We live on the wrong side of the Mississippi. Loved the “dinosaur turds”. Lol. Justin’s influencing is not working on that shirt.
It would be great if you waited to get the 2025 4Runner, which has a lot of built-in mods and better gas mileage. You could literally test out for all of us to see.
I’d LOVE the new 4Runner. It hadn’t been announced when I filmed this!
Great video. I'd suggest you get an older 4Runner. The land cruiser will burn the pocket for sure 😅
Yeah we decided the Land Cruiser is too much!
Could you please tell us more about your source concerning possible shutdown of the Barracks trail? Is this based on anything solid from any agency?
What was that portable campfire you guys had?
That was Justin's Howl fire. $$$$$$$
What a great video. We were in Moab last week and there are ugly signs up and fences restricting public access to these beautiful areas. It saddens me when our tax dollars are used against us. Shutting these trails down to protect them is like shutting down a library and claiming that the purpose is to preserve the books!
Do you have any kind of link to the closure? I wasn't aware this was on the list of closures. What is the closure date? Tell Mcbride bag down to 8lbs and crawl up that hill lol. I live in the dunes
I don’t think there was any way to make it up that hill without momentum!
utahpla.com/the-barracks-trail-is-not-closed-yet/
I like your content but to be honest it’s the Jeep I look to see most. As a Jeep owner I enjoy seeing other Jeep owners doing things I wish I could do. It’s kinda like Mustang owners don’t want to see Camaros. You probably won’t lose many viewers and that’s a good thing. But I’m sorry you’re switching vehicles. Have fun out there and stay safe.
You must be newish to the channel. He’s gone through other rigs. I started watching when he was driving a 4Runner.
I'm a truck guy, Dodge Ram 2500 very upgraded. Keep the Tundra, I enjoy the competition. :o) Tundra and Taco and 4runners are ok. However the Tundra has HP as does my Ram. I can go 90+ up Cajon Pass in San Bernardino County HW 15 not the others. Maybe your Tundra can.
The Tundra is definitely staying! I love the power too.
Get you a FJ60. But don't drop a V-8 into it. If you gotta re-engine it, Cummins BT-4 or one of the many world market Toyota diesels. And and H55 5-speed trans. ;)
Do Patreon supporters get access to tracks and camp spots shown in older videos?
They do! I have a document with every video and all the tracks from each video.
quick question. you running 35 or 37s.. cheers mate
35s on the Jeep!
That hill looked super rough. I am sure I can make it in my Gladiator sport……if I take it downhill LOL
Not sure Bronco was showing off necessarily...IFS seems to do that hill well. My 21 TRD Off-road 4Runner went up pretty easy, with zero front end hop, like that
Sort of the same as Bronco...
Sort of.
Yeah IFS is great for all those fast fun trails! I think I would have made it up if I’d just driven better though 😂
That trail goes through a lot of private property, ranching family that lives there. And it get destroyed by the massive side by sides. Pretty sure that's why they're shutting it down. I live close to their,
What they should do is limit access by using a lottery system and only allowing a certain number of vehicles and charge a fee that goes towards restoration of damaged areas caused by people not staying on the designated trails to clean up the Trash left behind pigs.
Justin is a Mennonite from afar. Then you get up close, and there 's the Spiderman shirt.
Lol!
And also nice!
ya use jeepers we care of are trail its does dam quads abd bike doing what every
Rob, why only 35s on your JLU rubicon. David went camping solo 99% of the time, but I don't understand why he isn't installing a winch till today. When he needs it he's really gonna need it. Ford Bronco on 35s is acceptable, but not so much on the jeep in my humble opinion. No offense. An overlander from the east sharing his humble opinion.
Broncos are the better choice for trails like this, but the Jeep is definitely going to be far better for rock crawling! I didn’t want to regear, so kept the Jeep mild.
Did anyone actually get a coupon for the 20 percent off method wheels ? I input my info still haven’t got it.
Check your junk folder or try a different email address. Occasionally it doesn't work, but most the time it does!
What is being closed?
Barracks Trail
Great video. That drone you filmed in camp seems super loud. As much as I appreciate drone footage every now and then, it illustrates why I am happy they are not allowed in many areas.
As much as I enjoy flying my drone, I’m also glad they’re not allowed in many areas like National Parks. They’re loud and annoying. I don’t really fly mine around other people (unless they’re part of the trip) but some people don’t think about it.
Great clip mate and thanks for sharing.
We have many tracks here in Australia being shut and locked off too, unfortunately the minor of dickheads wreck it for the majority of bush respecting law abiding citizens.
Great channel and new subscriber 👍
P.S - are you an Aussie expat ?
Yeah we definitely have a tiny minority that ruin it for everyone. I’m from the UK!
Go.
200 series landcruiser?
Luxury!
OMG YEAH GET THE NEW LAND CRUISER!!!! That would be so awesome 😊
I want one so bad, but they’re more expensive than my Tundra!
@@RevereOverland Yeah I get that. Maybe just wait a while and see if you can get a decent used one in time just to save some money.
Why sell the jeep?
It's not great for the trails we do and it's a big car payment
Let me know if you sell the Jeep please. I might be interested.
It might already be sold!
And then there’s Justin 😂😂😂
He’s our special friend
Because every Tom thinks he is an off-road pro now and so the trails are getting trashed by inexperienced jerks
A bunch a rich bois with time on their hands go out and destroy everything I love...stay home in New Jersey!!!!
utah state let some pencil pusher behind the desk in california shut this down.
What is your reason for selling the jeep?
It just doesn’t suit us for the types of trails we do and our driving across country!
I live 20 minutes from there. The sign and drive golf cart crowd has thrashed it so bad I will be surprised if it remains open. No organized group seems to care much. All of the bypasses and all of the litter needs to be dealt with by user groups. If the BLM has to deal with it they will just close it.
Comment to your question: SAVE YOUR $ be smart - that train might not last forever
Sell the Jeep and get The Ineos Grenadier
That hill would kill motorcycles
I don’t think I would have even made it to the hill on a motorcycle lol
Rather than an older 4runner, replace the Jeep with an FJ Cruiser.
I do like the FJs!
Garbage
👏👏👏💪👍🙋♂️🇵🇭
Prudent land management should protect the land. Visited, hiked much of Utah 40+ years ago. Folks had a bit more respect for the land and a leave no trace ethic. Population and motorized vehicles sometime don’t mix with fragile ecosystems .
I forgot why you got the Jeep in the first place? Why not just keep and use the Tundra? Too big? I have 3 kids. The perfect overland vehicle doesn’t exist! Trucks are too big for small/narrow trails. And SUVs don’t have enough space for kids and supplies. 🤷🏻♂️
That’s the problem we’ve found! It was to give more variety in the channel, put less miles on the Tundra, and give use a backup vehicle.
What is the name of the trailer and how do we contact the BLM to tell them to not close it? I want to go on this trailer and it would be so sad if they closed it.
The trail is the Barracks Trail. You can find details on the BLM website via Google.
Get another Jeep and do harder trails! Or get a new 4runner/ Land Cruiser and attempt the rubicon! Or just keep the Jeep you have and do that. Always fun to watch more difficult trails.
Algorithm
Thanks!
The good ole government….
You asked what kind of vehicle you should get. Bronco Raptor. It definitely gets the job done and doesn’t feel like you’re driving a piece of farm equipment.
They're awesome, but that's even more money!
The BLM is really getting a hold of all of this. It makes no sense. These trails are all extremely awesome and They can't just shut it down like that. But well, there's nothing we can do and Moab will soon just be Arches and Canyonlands...
"..there's nothing we can do..."? Seriously?! How about closing down BLM and the politicians who appointed them! Read the Constitution - all the land is OURS!
They're doing it because of SUWA.
Utah native here. It's only closed to motors. You can still get there on a bike out your feet. If ding dongs didn't tear up the trails and loot the archaeological sites these restrictions wouldn't have happened. There's way too many people out here who don't respect just how fragile this land is. I want our great grandchildren to see it as we do.
I miss the old days when people didn’t know UT was a state. The problem now is we are loving UT too much. Back east there is almost no open land so even with closures of some, we are still incredibly lucky. The best way to keep the trails open is to stay on the trail, and avoid driving over untracked areas. The issues that impacted public opinion most in Moab are UT politicians allowing no restrictions on atv mufflers, except in SLC (where they live) and too many people behaving poorly (widening trails, ripping up the terrain, racing there loud atvs through town at all hours).
