Barney Riley Trail! Not as Easy as it Looks 

I like the way she hits the swicth, and up we go!

Thank you guys for the videos. I base my weekend outings on your videos. You guys even helped us out on Hellhole when we broke down. Keep up the great videos. Thanks

Angry Camper just makes these videos that much funner!

Thanks for giving us a look at this trail. I so wanted to make that turn up the hill when I was there in June. Now, I know it's passable, but not preferred.

Before I even watch, I am biting my nails, this was HARD!!!

I feel like that Big Tundra guy lives down here near me in the South Bay...I swear I saw that rig this morning

Awesome to see you folks do the whole loop! The trail going up from the river is a lot harder than doing it in the opposite direction.

The Behemoth. That huge Yota..

Thanks for the vid. I was there with a group of 6 vehicles about a week before you. A stock JK, lifted JK on 38’s, lifted gladiators, on 35’s & 37’s, Forerunner lifted on 33’s, and a ZR2 Bison on 34’s. We started on at Hwy 89 and camped at the hot spring. The trail has really taken a beating since last time I ran it a few years ago. The ruts are ridiculously deep and off-camber areas resulted in paint damage and for us with campers, accessory damage to exterior propane tanks, etc..

I miss your buddy with the Ram. He took that rig into places no Dodge RAM Extra Cab, long bed would ever go. Get Well!

Great video Vas..!

Going up has to be harder. It sucks seeing it all burned down. You used to drive through Aspen groves and green meadows.

Seeing vids of XJs on trails is making me want to get my XJ on the road faster

Back in 2010, I did this whole loop. With my 04 Tundra. From 89 to 356. 2" lift. going downhill. Probably a 4.

After the fire, a lot more runoff. Waay more knarly than when we did it 12 years ago. That lower section used to be the easy section.

Late to the video, however, as I was watching the video I kept wondering why your “weakest link”-the Tundra-was the last in line. . . .

Going Uphill, today.. ,probably a seven..

a lot of sheet metal on that Yota..

I want to run this with no camper and with 35s. I feel like I would be so much more confident!!

love the videos , what is the safest river flow that you would cross?

That Tundra needs a rear locker BAD. I might take this trail out next time I go to Carson River. When will you guys be at the hot springs next?

I love your videos. I have a Cherokee XJ like yours but here in Germany we don't have any trails and you're not allowed to camp anywhere in nature like you can easily do. It's a shame but we can watch your videos instead.

Nice job, on the trail and the video production. Is this trail in CO? As far as ratings go, OnXOR tends to overrate the trails. That trail in typical off road ratings would probably be a 3. The ruts do not impact the ratings. Only rock size does. And a 3-rate trail has rocks which average 10"+, in the path of the tires. Also, that Tundra is pretty much at the max wheelbase you'd ever want to take off road. Many trails I run it would not fit, regardless of the terrain. The XJs, 3rd-gen 4runner, or 80 series (what I run) is about perfect wheelbase for technical, extreme overlanding (just-shy-of-rock-climbing capability). Happy Trails! Sub'd.

Where can i purchase your shirts or other gear with your logo?

What time of the year was this taken? I've been thinking on going but with winter coming up, not sure if its possible to make it with snow.

FMJs or HPRs flying around - very strange .....

As hard as BR trail was do you think it would be easier doing it in reverse, in at 89, out at 395?

If you go to the hot springs. Not wise to go out this way.

Why is your Jeep named "crew chief"? Are you ex U.S. Air Force?

Stock 4wds do it… it’s easy.
