Devil's Canyon. Idaho Springs, CO. Solo.

- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- Devil's Canyon is a fun one close by, it has ruts to get twisted up in and also a few ledges of slightly varying degree. It has excellent views and campsites but unfortunately they were all full. The plan is to redo some of my earlier videos and get more drone shots but I didn't want to annoy everyone. So enjoy the better quality with slightly more drone footage redo of Devil's Canyon. 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:
amzn.to/2wmd20O CO
amzn.to/2BzDIBc CO North
amzn.to/2ByPuvy Moab
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.

Awesome trail!! Went alone in the dark and had a blast!! My 3 rd gen 4 runner handled it like a beast… it is way more rutted and washed out now than in your video definately one of the more technical trails I’ve hit especially in the dark… there is a spot where the trail is so off camber that it is possible to roll over
Hit this trail today for the first time ever. What a great trail! Couple of gnarly spots on the back side of the loop, but nothing my stock 06 Xterra with no locker couldn't handle. You could easily spend a few hours up here.
yea! it’s pretty smooth for how fun it is too, not so many rocks and they re usually bigger so more fun than a chore. 👍
Great idea on the shots from behind zooming in and the shots in front zooming away! Super cool.
thanks! pretty much required when i’m alone. i had a driver this time but still fall into old habits 👍
I’d like the fact the you are using proper hand signal to indicate your turns. 😂
Haha you can thank Justin always using proper signals 😂
Thanks brother for inspiring those of us who watch to get out and truly appreciate Colorado!
no problem, have fun out there!
@@BRollOffroad I have one question. What type of jack are you using?
@@iowaboyincolorado just the stock one, i'm not lifted very much and don't have anywhere besides my hitch to use another type of jack.
@@BRollOffroad same here. 2" OME and 255 KO2s on an 07 Jeep Grand Cherokee w/5.7. Took that advice you gave..."it doesn't take much....a lift...cupla tires"
@@iowaboyincolorado HAHAHA quoting my vids, i feel honored! glad you're liking it.
Looks like some great trails.
yea it’s a nice network, few more in the area too 👍 thanks for watching!
A nice leisurely drive in Gods Country to clear the stink of the city out of your head. Very nice video!
Best wishes and good health to you my friend.
it was quite necessary haha, thanks bud hope you’re doing well.
As always thumbs up in advance)
I couldn't wait for your backstage vid so i went and shot 120Gbs of footage with 6 cameras on 6 hours trip...
haha nice! let me know when it’s finished, your photos from the other day were really good 👍
@@BRollOffroad The key here is WHEN its gonna be finished :D
Great video. I love Devil's Canyon. Did it with my wife and son last summer when he was only 4 months old. Found a great camping spot midway through and spent the night. We'll be doing it more with it being so close to us.
thanks so much and me too! it’s a great quickie. glad you took your son out so early, gives me hope for my buddy with the van, his kid arrives in 4 days!
That's a clean image. Wonderful greenery you got to drive through.
yea it was nice to revisit this one. i’m excited to redo everything in this area, mostly so i don’t have to keep driving 4hrs to do a new trail haha.
Still trucking along I see. You're only getting better everytime I check in. Stay safe and have a blast brother. 🍻
sick thanks bud!
Took my stock Renegade Trailhawk on this today and she did beautifully. This is a great vid
awesome and thanks for watching!
Awesomeness man that things a weapon ☠👍👍👍⛏💙
Took my ‘88 F150 on this trail today. It was awesome. Thanks for the video.
oh cool! does it have anything done to it?
B Roll Offroad Nope. Stock. I did just replace the suspension and tires. Just wanted a trail to see what it could do. It went well.
perfect!
WOAH DYNAMIC WALKING SHOTS ON BROLFROAD IDK IF I CAN HANDLE IT
HAHAHA! i almost didn't put it in, so out of place.
You captured some good footage. Really pretty up there.
thanks! wish i could’ve gotten more from the air but didn’t go down this time. thanks for watching!
What a fantastic looking trail. I’m gonna have to put that on my list next time I’m up in that area.
Awesome footage and great editing. Great job!!
yea it’s a sweet quick one. might as well hit Barbour Forks on the way as well 👍
Very nice. Beautiful area.
thanks bud!
love the drone shots its gorgeous, I need to ride around Idaho springs. been there about 3 or 4 times. so many trails out there
thanks! there’s a ton between Idaho Springs and Empire, still a few i haven’t done there 👍
Wow i love road trip or hiking or off road. i hope i can do that soon but you know i dont have any of that haha so wow im enjoying seeing or watching your videos love the video shots❤️
awesome glad you like it! thank you!
b-roll, this is ebags. my oldest (6 years) is asking if we have a b-roll xterra. Great work my friends.
hey what’s up man, that’s excellent! i never thought kids would like my channel but i don’t know why, the seed of this whole thing is my old Big Foot VHS’s haha.
Sliders should be in the future. Good video!
haha sliders and winch have been in the list for.. 10yrs? haha, one day i'll get around to it. thanks for watching!
that was nicely shot. 🎯💯
was thinking about taking my stock touareg up there but now im not so sure.. lol
thanks! also i think you’re right, not sure i’d recommend this one for ya. i have Easy Trails and Medium Trails playlists you might wanna check out if you’re lookin 👍
@@BRollOffroad yeah i will, thanks!
cool content, great channel man!
@@NoProDad thanks really appreciate it!
Great trail!
thanks bud!
Did you have to use a locker at 4:50? You always make it look like even a Suburu could do it. You make it look easy.
haha thanks! and this was my buddy Justin, he did use the locker after stopping for a sec and if you look close you can see how happy he is pulling away.
wanna add, an open diff vehicle would probably be fine straddling the V and make it.
Sorry if I missed it. I just found your channel but, does your X have a lift kit?
no problem, i have a walkaround if you want but offroad upgrades are: 33” tires, 2” Old Man Emu Complete kit, SPC upper control arms, no sway bars/steps/flaps.
I think you should lead a pack of Suburus up a trail just for kicks.
i’ll pass haha but they do surprise me quite a bit.
This is my kind of overlanding/off roading. I have a 2wd Escape. Would it work? And are your tires aired down?
i air down to 15psi for everything. you could probably do most of it.. 3:00 might be a problem and 5:00 i don’t think you could make it.
@@BRollOffroad thanks. I'm a subber!!
This is awesome! What app do you use to have your maps offline? For camping, do you know if a bear canister is necessary?
thanks! i just screenshot all the TrailsOffroad waypoints and sometimes find the exit coordinates and put those in as well. a canister is not required here 👍
Looking to hit this trail next. How long did it take you to get across?
its tough to say because filming takes forever but i’d guess maybe 2hrs?
Air down? If so to what pressure?
15psi in case you missed the last one.
@@BRollOffroad is that about normal for all trails??
@@chris74ify yea i picked 15 years ago and that's what my deflators are at so i never change it. i experimented in the beginning and settled on this.
@@BRollOffroad is this pressure for beeded locked tires...?
@@chris74ify nah I've gone as low as 8psi and never had beadlocks. this depends on LOTS of factors, heavy vehicles can pop beads, driving too fast in a turn, wheel lip size, sidewall rating etc. in general 15psi is pretty safe on anything unless it's huge.
New tires
still on the same tires, got a few thousand left. probably switch back to the MT’s next time, i like the slightly taller slightly skinnier look.
B Roll Offroad what psi are you running?
Do you have a locker?
i think the "off road " model xterra, which he is driving, did have a rear locker.
correct, Offroad (later PRO-4X) came with a locker stock. at 4:44 Justin hits it and continues on his way 👍
@@BRollOffroad that's sweet.
Hey buddy do you think ram 1500 can make this trail?
4WD? I think you could, you’ll probably get some pinstripes in a couple spots and there’s a couple where you’ll need momentum to carry you through if you don’t have a locker, but you should be able to make it.
i agree, the trail was pretty tight even for me, quite a few new stripes but i’d say doable if you’re not worried about the paint.
Where’s this at ? I wana go :)
it’s ~10miles up the 103 out of Idaho Springs 👍
B Roll Offroad I’m in ohio :(
@@Lexusgx550 oh haha! my girlfriend is from there, been a few times, i like how green and hilly it is but there wasn't any offroad unless we went 2-3hrs away.
Political candidates be flip floppin' around more than that CB antenna
lol
