Very nice video man, hopefully I can roll w you guys someday and do a little bit of exploration. I’m a SoCal local too I have the same exact truck you have..
You are a great videographer, great stills throughout. Were you on BLM land when you camped, or were you in JT park proper? I was interested about your campfire, did you get a permit for that or is it simply allowed if in a contained firebox like you were using?
Thanks for watching. Where we camped was on BLM land. You can download the fire permit online. You just have to watch a video and take a quiz. We use the portable Pop Up Fire Pit which is BLM approve.
I went over that in a 4x4 Colorado two years ago and IIRC there were a few points just b fore you reached the high point north of the park boundary that would probably be too tight. I'd also be a little worried about sidewalls. I don't think we saw any full size pick-ups up there. I'm pretty sure you could get almost to the top from the north side with a dually. But from the park boundary to the top, really taking a chance.
They were basically using it to direct some of the force up (in the vertical direction) as the top of the tire was higher than the anchor point, probably didn't make a *huge* difference here, but always good if you can direct the force in the direction you actually want to go.
It certainly would be more of a challenge but as long as you have decent clearance you could probably do it. There was a 2 wheel drive 4 runner that made it.
@@socal69_88 if you are in Southern California I would recommend Anza Borego, Joshua Tree or Mojave Desert. All beautiful with lots of trails for various levels of vehicles and experience. The Eastern Sierra’s are also one of my favorites in the summer time.
Great video -- thanks! Always enjoy your stuff.
Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it!

You think I'd be able to take a dually there?
I think it would be pretty tight.

Cool trip. I've never seen a spare tire used under a tow strap before-what was the reasoning behind that?
They were basically using it to direct some of the force up (in the vertical direction) as the top of the tire was higher than the anchor point, probably didn't make a *huge* difference here, but always good if you can direct the force in the direction you actually want to go.
Nice video. Hope you didn’t hurt your taco
Thanks! Despite a few scratches she is still going strong.
Great video. Thank you for the upload. Did you gentleman start off Hwy 62 and go south,or of Hwy 10 and go north?
Hi Shawn, thanks for the positive feedback. We went north from the 10 to the 62 but either way will work just as well.
@@advfamily Awesome. I've been doing the Red Canyon Jeep trail to the south a lot. This trail looks awesome. Thanks again.
@@shawnmccuen6908 cool and I will have to check the Red Canyon trail soon.
Isn’t that a landing strip your camped on?
Not that I was aware of and it didn't show it was a landing strip on the map but based on how flat it was I guess it could be used for one... Scary!
Do you think a 2wd chevy colorado could have done this trail?
It certainly would be more of a challenge but as long as you have decent clearance you could probably do it. There was a 2 wheel drive 4 runner that made it.
@@advfamily awesome man thanks!
How do you know where to go?
We normally use Google, Gaia and off-road X to plan out our trips. We also watch a lot of RUclips!
@@advfamily nice bro I appreciate the info. Been wanting to make trips like this but it’s kinda hard lol any tips recommendations?

@@advfamily thanks brother I will look into these trails for sure. Any gear you recommend having/taking?
@@socal69_88 just get out there and the gear will come but my first purchases were sliders and traction boards.
That wasn’t a fox.... that was a Chupacabra!! They come at night.
I think you are right!
