  • Bronco Peak trail is one of the most challenging in San Diego County and my son and I have been wanting to run this trail for a long time. In this video, we team up with the Flex Assault Jeep Group and spend a few hours tackling some rocks, ruts, steep decent and sharp turns. We may have experience little trail damage along the way, but in the end we all had a blast!

    Looks like a fun trail and a good group to be with. I agree it's not a good idea to wheel alone. We always like to go with a group and help each other through it. We're in Moab right now with a group from AZ. Keep wheeling

    Hey guys. I hail from Australia and run tag along tours like that. But what I just saw in this vid was phenomenal. You all are a great bunch of blokes. Keep up this great content. And Brad, you come across as a real genuine dude and sense your passion for the off road life.

    Love this trail, looks really hard, but if you know your vehicle and where your tires are at its a breeze. Have run it multiple times with no spotter on 31's and a rear locker in a YJ, and with barely any lift on my jeep it helps to eliminate that tippy factor. You certainly don't need huge tires a a ton of lift to get through this stuff, just some good ol' enthusiasm! Would love to go wheeling with you Brad!

  • @we_4lo818
    @we_4lo818 5 лет назад +7

    Another awesome video Brad. It truly was an honor wheeling with you and making it in one of your videos. Looking forward to another day on the trails with you and your son.

    @jimgavin1799 5 лет назад +2

    I am seriously impressed! I did Bronco Peak in a purpose built crawler, I thought it was gnarly then! I can’t imagine doing it in a full bodied Jeep. You all did great.

  • @appleguy1986
    @appleguy1986 5 лет назад +2

    This is the best video of Bronco Peak I have seen. Kudos to the Flex Assault Team, I highly respect their style of wheeling, careful and responsibleness seemed to be the order of the day. Good Times!

  • @huskymoto9207
    @huskymoto9207 4 года назад

    Man, that was pucker factor for sure. I had to take a few deep breaths otw down the hill and my poor phone. I almost crushed it as I was white knuckleing it a few times. That was great. Thanks Brad and friends. 😁

    it’s amazing how capable these jeeps are and how relatively easy it is to build them. There’s a point where pouring more money in isn’t worth it and these jeeps hit the mark for incredible capability for the money

    The way you where talking about it at the beginning of the video I thought for sure you where going to run the connector. I was a bit disappointed that you went up the easy way. Then I realized some guys had open diff's. They would never make it up without at least one locker. Cool to see a high quality edit of the closest trail system to me so thanks for that.

    • @SandmanReal

    @michaeldurling793 5 лет назад

    Brad, that was awesome. What a great group to hook up with for a day on a very challenging trail. I don't have the terrain in my area to test my jeep or my ability so you presenting these videos is an instructive classroom so to speak, plus I can experience the excitement and expectation along with you. I truly love your content and thank you so much for investing your time in my entertainment, enjoyment and education.

    • @TrailRecon
      @TrailRecon  5 лет назад +1

      No way I would do it in the rain it would be way to sketchy. Nothing glamours about removing my RTT, my son and I just unbolt, lift and remove. It helps that we are both over 6 feet tall.

    • @desigan999

But hot dam Bronco Peak looks tough! thanks for the best footage on you tube on that trail, now i know what ill be getting myself into lol

    Interesting body language from the young lady with the knee brace and the crutch. I think she had a spark in her body language for your son. It was quick but it was noticeable. Anyone else see it? It was the flicking of her hair and finger twirling of her ponytail as she laughed. Jus sayin’. Oh and great video as always brad!

    @cosmonot100 5 лет назад

    Another great video Brad! Your editing and music has definitely gotten better since the beginning.
    I'm not a fan of the doorless trend for many reasons. From something as minor as sun burn on the legs without knowing it, to rollovers that lead to limbs or entire bodies flying out and getting crushed. Doorless is great for a day on the beach or something like that.
    Oh, and BTW those aren't scratches, those are memories!!!

    OK, that was knarly! Sorry your JK got scrapped up a bit. Another Great video!
    We have a lot of trails like that out here in the CO area, but this time of year we are pretty much done doing trips into the mountains and bending steel.
    Fixing up our XJ over the winter and waiting for the snow to melt. We may be planning a trip out to Southern Utah or even Nevada to escape the snow next month. Must be nice to live in Southern California and have that sort of weather to play in.
    Let's see some XJ content as you guys fix it up! Its been a while.

    Yeah coming down that trail looked like a real clencher even on video. Big pucker factor in person I bet

      A little bit of pucker, but a whole lot of fun!

    Brad! You deliver the best as always!! My daughter and I are currently building a 78 Bronco and will soon be exploring the mountains of Washington state.

      Wow, sounds like a great project! I use to live in Washington, so many great places for you and your daughter to explore... excited for you two.
