  • In this episode we uncover possibly the best trail we've ever ridden in Missouri when we take a quick ride through the Mark Twain National Forest. We take our Jeep Jk Wrangler Unlimited along with my buddy's Jeep Commander to get in some off-roading, trail riding, camping, overloading, mudding, and exploring! We spend the night in our Roam Vagabond Rooftop Tent and try out our new Tuff Stuff Awing and Shower Combo. We cook up some great campfire food and enjoy a great weekend in the midwest!

    • @WBR79
      @WBR79 3 года назад +5

      He’s referring to the start of the video where you are driving up a hillside for no reason. You’ve got a lot of footage in your videos that goes against the Tread Lightly philosophy. Won’t be any trails open if we destroy the areas we like to visit.

      Just make sure the trails or road(s) is numbered. If not, if it doesn't have a number, its a unauthorized trail or road, which is supposed to be off-limits to motorized vehicles...

      @@BenandBrandi Gotcha.. It did not look like the tires were contouring to the rock surface much so I assumed you did not but figured I would ask. However, it seemed you got through it all pretty decently and did well without airing down. Again, it looked like a great trail system and everyone had a good time!
