Johnny Park Rd. Estes Park, CO. Solo.

- Johnny Park Road is a trail I did pretty early on in the channel. I was coming back from camping so at that time I ran it backwards. I always said I wanted to go back and go up all the obstacles instead of slide down them (last time it was snowy and icy). So that was great, very fun trail with lots of ledges to go up and a few rutty areas to flex out on. Almost everything has a bypass and I saw some trucks on there that surprised me. The hardest part is early on and the bypass has some basketball sized rocks in it but should be fine in just about anything with a careful line. Have fun out there!

My Tires:
amzn.to/2whk2MF
I love these tires. The only others I'd take are the BFG KO2 but they don't make them in this size and the KM2's are amazing. You can probably imagine the amount of driving I do weekly and how much abuse my tires get. These things last, everyone knows this, you've seen it in my videos.
My Tire Deflators:
amzn.to/2nYVxzU
These tire deflators have many $15 copies but the others just don't hold up or are inaccurate. I don't know what the deal is, they look identical to me too but read the reviews- they're bad. I've been using these Staun's for over a year and never had a problem, I air down a lot. Set them at the trail so your tires will be the same temp when you get to the trail next time.
My Compressor:
amzn.to/2PuerLH
There are better ones but I'd just get a bigger VIAIR, not something different. Airs up all my 33's from 14psi to 37psi in less than 10 minutes.
My Microphone:
amzn.to/2P1S3sb
My microphone is the worst good mic you can get. BUT don't be fooled, it's a very good mic. Picture me getting in my car for the 50th time after I just ran up and down a hill... for the 50th time. Do you see me disconnecting my mic and gingerly setting it in a case? No. It stays connected to the tripod, gets thrown into my plastic cargo area and bounces around with other heavy items until the next one. It gets terrible interference from WiFi so you must make sure that it's off on your camera or phone. If you are trying to use this with your phone you need to get a TRS to TRRS cable which RODE makes. This is required because your phone will think the mic is headphones.
My Tripod:
amzn.to/2o8h6hL
I went through 2 tripods in 1 month, a $20 and a $30. Buy it nice or buy it thrice. This thing gets opened and closed MANY times per week in rain, snow, dirt, and even in the middle of rivers. I love the 2-stage legs so i can make it real low in 2sec instead of shortening all the legs.
My Drone:
amzn.to/2KUGWAp
You can tell how easy it was to progress through my videos. Besides maybe five times, you've seen every bit of flying since I got it. I don't fly in the city and I don't go to the mountains and not make a video. It is VERY easy to use.
My Drone ND Filters:
amzn.to/2MHV0R0
The filters are a must. Again I have the worst ones and I am still very pleased. My first use was video #35 and I think it is very apparent. Illinois Gulch (#34 obviously) has a completely white sky, way too much blue. I'm still not even good about selecting the right one or changing them out but it's 10x better than nothing.
My Books:

This is the stuff I've tested, this is what I like. I am very hard on all of my equipment frequently and it still works. I back all of these items and each company seems to back their product very well too. I guess it's easy to offer a warranty when your stuff doesn't break.

Whoever wanted that pool table/ headboard delivered way out there should be very grateful 🤣🤪,,great video!
HAHA #workingfortips
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🏻
Not sure if you've run this recently but man has this trail changed. Erosion has created some pretty gnarly spots pushing it up towards a 4/10 for the mandatory lines. The first rock garden is similar to the gate keeper at Middle Saint Vrain and the upper optional rock garden is super washed out with the bypass to the left being almost impassable for a stock vehicle, throwing most in to tripod mode with how off camber it's become.
i haven’t run anything recently 😂 i FINALLY came home yesterday, hoping to get out this weekend actually. that’s crazy though, i know the rain has been crazy in the state, i bet most trails got pretty messed up.
@@BRollOffroad Iron Clads has gotten pretty gnarly as well. Not sure when you were up there last but that switchback coming down is getting to be more off camber. Latest vid I threw up on my channel will give you an idea, if you plan to head up there anytime soon. Would say it's probably the hardest mandatory section of the trail now.
@@The_Samsquantch copy that and i'll check it out! 👍
We're about to run it this weekend November 19, '23. Excited and nervous at the same time.
@@colinisnowlostincolorado Have fun man. I think you guys will be good, we're gonna be running it after thanksgiving for one last time this season.
Definitely worth the drive... look at that view
not too shabby!
You crack me up my friend, great truck great video .🏴☠👍👍👍⛏💙
thanks buddy!
As Vizzini says....."I'm waiting!!"
haha! i got another one ready just can’t find songs for it. might have to finally get a music service..
I think we just get too excited! Sunday nights....Yellowstone and B Roll is the routine. Lol
alright, done in 10mins.
Rode this trail in a rented 21’ Tacoma TRD Pro in October 2021. First time trailing out west and was a lot of fun! Unfortunately I live in FL and there’s nothing like this to drive my Wrangler on. Can’t wait to explore again next time I’m out there.
oh nice one, this trail is pretty fun, glad you had a good time!
Another sweet vid! I like the stuff-it at 3:21.
yea that was a good one, i like ruts more than rocks haha.
4:16 Nice little section there.
yea the one before this looks harder but with the line i took i barely flexed or got off camber at all. the tricky thing about this one is all those stairs have holes after them, really tried to take it easy and not launch it. heavy Xterra and no sliders, got pretty close at the top haha.
Damn, you rocking that fancy RTT now huh? Good to see you aren't slowing down.
i've gone too far to slow down haha. the tent i'm just borrowing from Spirit Of 1876, long term product testing. it's way too wide for the skinny Xterra rack (looks-wise) but it is really nice setting up in 30sec.
@@BRollOffroad it kind of looks like a neat graduation cap
@@DavidBaysingerr HAHA totally.
Looks like a fun trail. Havent had the ambition to fix mine in this summer heat. Broke a front axle mount in Moab.
yea i like it a lot, and that sucks! how long has it been down?
Since May. Still get to drive it in 2wd but no 4wd fun. Being Isuzu it takes a while to track down parts these days. I was hoping to have a shop do it but they dont like to use customer supplied parts even if they are new in package OEM parts.
ahh 10-4. well hope you’re up and running soon!
My son and I are planning to visit and renting a side-by-side for a half day. I can't decide on which Trail I want to ride though. I'm leaning towards this one or MSV.
when are you coming? both are under seasonal closure right now… this one typically opens in 2 days and assuming MSV is Middle St Vrain that’s 7/1. i really liked this trail and actually have never done MSV for some reason, almost have like 100 times but never made it haha.
@@BRollOffroad June 26th would be my riding date so it looks like Middle Saint Vrain is out of the question. Johnny Park it is then!
Nice. I love the scenic w/obstacle style trails. Like backpacking on a skateboard or golf mixed with tires if you will. LOL. Cheers!
haha totally agree! i always ask people who are confused about why we do it if they enjoy sitting on a deck or porch with a great view. it’s like that except the view is always changing and i get to do puzzles the whole time haha.
I'm really enjoying your videos. The drone footage is great and no dash cam footage. Lots of running back and forth if you're alone. Most of my footage is dash cam. This makes me want to run that trail! How long is it? Out and back or a loop. I agree with "After Hours" mark 4:16 obstacle looks like fun. Didn't see you take a bypass.....nice job!!
thanks buddy! i scrapped a few clips from this one, lots of running haha. this IS a great trail and is actually point to point, it goes from Big Elk Meadow Dr (CR-47) west over to CR-82E.
@@BRollOffroad This trail is now on my list! Thank you!
B Roll Offroad thinking about heading that way on Tuesday. Is there spots for camping?
@@ramenthenoodle_ yea plenty of camping on either end. the first drone shots are at a campsite as well, it's at a Y in the road you go right. i went right again but there's another fork where i assume there's a spot or two.
Hey...enjoyed watching your video...nice shots! I also went to Estes Park recently and made a video too!
thank you! i subscribed and added a couple of your vids to my Watch Later 👍
@@BRollOffroad Thank you! It is great to connect with you. I have subbed to your channel too and will make sure I don't miss to see any of your videos. Regards!
nice!
thanks again!
From which side do you enter the trail to go up the obstacles?
i believe i ran it from the East to the West
@1:17 teach me how to drive. I was scared to take that line. I took the one on left. LoL..
haha there are a couple of lines up this one, could’ve been more right and flexed it out. driving’s easy, just put your tires on the tall stuff instead of your undercarriage.
@@BRollOffroad will try after few years of experience.. Just don't want to start rolling down and diiieeee..!! :) :)
that’s a good call! i’ve been doing this for a long time, you’ll figure it out.
How do you like the ride of your OME setup? I often hear conflicting reviews about that suspension setup. Great video work as usual, I could never have the patience to stop and setup for each section. Glad you do though!
i think it’s great and seems to be holding up well to thousands of offroad miles. i might not be the guy coming from 2 torsion bar lifts but yea, it’s pretty nice. i appreciate you saying that, definitely think about quitting nearly every time haha, once i start editing though i’m already thinking about the next one 👍
Dude I'm in the Springs. If you see me around please Xterra stalk me and leave me some info. Can't wait to go wheeling out here.
nice! can’t remember if you moved here or just visiting?
@@BRollOffroad Stationed here for at least 3 years. Hopefully longer.
that’s right.. well good!
This one looks like a lot of fun!
Do you have any local trails you'd suggest for someone to slowly learn what their vehicle is capable of and learn how to drive offroad?? My girls got a new stock Taco(TRD Offroad) and has the desire to go offroad, but is clueless on what the truck can do or how to drive a line and pick it out. (For example, I directed her over things my Lifted FWD Golf TDI would do easily and she was relatively nervous to do it) We've been around the main roads of Rampart range/Jackson Creek Rd; its not really enough to excel in learning unless we take the side trails(wouldnt want to do that without assistance)
i would get a trailsoffroad membership and just work your way up through their ratings. you’ve done some 2’s now try a 2-3, then a 3-3 etc. i’ll tell you that thing is just as capable as my car so any of these trails should be fine. i also intentionally take “bad” lines to make the videos more interesting on easier trails and there’s “better” ways to get up stuff. on this one though i took pretty legitimate lines through the harder stuff but they also all had bypasses.
@@BRollOffroad just got back to Douglas county from Medano Pass Road(and C.R. 559.1) alot to tell about the trip, but i just wanted to say, thats a fun trail she did great. Hoping to put together some of our video, but nothing like all your vids. Thanks for the heads up, getting a TrailsOffroad Membership asap!!!
@@JChurchua awesome! i still haven't done Medano and have only been to the dunes once. definitely another one that's been on the list forever, glad you had a good time!
@@BRollOffroad uploading day2 video now. Definitely need to just use my tripod or get a gimbal thingy. Thanks for the help! Happy trails man!
@@JChurchua nice i’ll check ‘em out!
Think I can run this on a gx469 with 32’ ko2? Stock height has air bags in back
yea definitely because everything hard has a bypass. there’s one section where even the bypass could be tricky but i saw some pretty plain trucks on street tires do it.
B Roll Offroad thanks man!!
is this real looks its a game
haha it’s my favorite game! Offroad Puzzle Quest 3.
