Crazy it’s all maintained now, in the seventies it was a rugged road, I still have the 78 Toyota FJ-40 I used to drive on it. Doesn’t even look like you need four wheel drive at all

You don't need modifications for this trail. I've been to the top and back down with a stock XJ (when it was stock), and a stock 3/4 Ton truck. Except for when it's muddy, there aren't really any places on that specific trail where you absolutely need 4WD, just maybe a little clearance. Try going the other direction to Sycamore Creek - turn left (west) instead of right (east) off of the 87. Go past the little dam. You won't get stuck if you stay out of the soft sand in the creek bed. There are some really cool places to go back there... and some of them are fairly difficult for mostly factory vehicles.

How do we rent cabin name of place or person that rent it out, also do they let you rent cabin with the dogs and Do you need to have 4wd or is 2wd drive possible to go on that trail, and name of trail and location please
@thesecondhalf5823
@thesecondhalf5823 5 месяцев назад
The link to the cabin is in the description below the video. Best directions I could give you is in the vid. I used Onx Off Road and took Buffalo Ranch to North Rim Grand Canyon. If you search that in OnX or even google it will pop up. Hope you go. It was amazing! If you have a higher clearance vehicle, 2WD may be able to make. I recommend 4wd.

Sir, thank you for this video and your insight. Love seeing how these adventures bring your family together. I have a Tacoma and we pile the dogs and kids in and travel to unknown locations to have these memories cause you only have one shot at this. Would you mind messaging me the name of this overlook. We are planning on heading to a few spots in the Grand Canyon-Parashant area but this looks gorgeous. Thank you again

Thanks for the info and great family friendly video. We are taking our kids out west and have been looking for remote areas, off grid places and back roads for boondocking and sight seeing nature. I am allergic to fragrances and chemicals, and don’t do well around a lot of people. Love y’all’s videos!

Well done. I was going to give you a hard time for adding even more exposure to the wonderful Kofas. But, your camp setup, calm demeanor and chill pace changed my mind. I've been going to the Kofas for over 25 years, in the winter of course. I've had to let it go recently because of a couple of seasons where the hoards from Quartzite would come up the canyon (Queen's Canyon) in their ATV wagon trains and really spoil the serenity. I'll start exploring the backcountry more thanks to this video. A side note. I stopped having a campfire when backpacking or camping alone. Nothing separates you from Nature like a campfire. It commands all your attention. You see it, feel it, smell it and smell it. Everything happening around the camp is drowned out by the fire. There are night sounds and scenes that are constantly going on all around. The desert landscape on a full moon night is unworldly. On the other hand, there is no better social glue than a campfire. Thanks for the Kofa moment.

You can definitely get a trailer through there. Their were full size ones camping out when I was there. I probably wouldn't take the Moki Dugway with it though.

Hi. Just came across your videos, by chance, because I’m doing some research for a trip to Moab in the spring. Love the videos, the Valley of the Gods one really caught my eye because that is definitely on the list for a day trip. Then I saw 343 subscribers. As a retired FDNY, it solidified my subscription. You guys are headed for greatness, If not only for memorializing the memories. Nice job!
