Day 1 of a brisk December winter weekend in the Allegheny National Forest mapping out some new forest roads and trails, some of which are only open during hunting season. Brought the diesel heater and plenty of layers for the cold. Joined on the trip by Nick ‪@trailoverland6462‬ in his TJ. We stumbled upon some awesome stuff and had a great time before the rain came in for Day 2.

Hi....got a camp 3.5 miles off of 321.....marker 400... on Chapel Fork. K-63......stop by anytime!

@NYPrepper 4 месяца назад

Wonder if that crater was from an old oil or gas well they removed?

@DarksideOffRoad 4 месяца назад

maybe, i'm still leaning towards a mini rock mining area since the boulders looked like the ones they'd use as trail / road barriers

@roniellegriggs6883 Год назад

I live in buffalo NY. It’s nice to see some local trails to hit up close to home

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

That’s the idea! Lots to do within a reasonable drive near us 💪

@@DarksideOffRoad Yea ran into your rig on Sheridan one day then seen you running a convoy at the mid Atlantic expo. Solid set up. Keep the great videos coming!

@davidschmude Год назад

So it appears the place you camped is just a short distance back FR 122 from the Red Bridge recreation area. Is that correct?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

Yep that general area has a few unmarked and marked sites in it you can look for 👍

@davidcarrico3385 Год назад

Great video. Do you publish your Gaia trails?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

Thanks. I don’t, but that’s also why I note the roads and areas in the videos/descriptions as long as they are publicly accessible and legal.

@Roblet217 Год назад

I'm not too far from Allegheny national forest but all i have is cherokee trailhawk. 😕

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

It’ll work great! Our friend Tyler comes out with his all the time. Air down a bit and go explore!

@@DarksideOffRoad Awesome! I'll definitely makes plans this summer.

@Roblet217 Год назад

@@DarksideOffRoad Sweet! I'm also watcing your videos in Bald Eagle State Park. A friend from work is also thinking about going there with a Nissan Exterra. You think the Cherokee Trailhawk and the Exterra will be fine there too?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

@@Roblet217 you’ll be fine on everything but Henstep and Sharpback Hollow. Those are the only two trails that really should have high clearance.

@danielcox95 Год назад

Silly question, but last year up there I frequently didn't have cell service. Does Gaia work as a true GPS would when no cell service is available?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

It will as long as you’re on a device that’s cellular capable. Just download your map layers first. 👍

@jonny6758 9 месяцев назад

Can you take a side by side on those roads or an atv

@DarksideOffRoad 9 месяцев назад

These are marked county / us roads so I don’t believe so. The forest website or ranger station would know better than I would though.

@Knox-ec9ur 9 месяцев назад

Officially, probably not. But the reality is this is an extremely remote area, and anyone you see probably is just going to smile and wave or just generally ignore you. Just be respectful.

@NorthCountryJeeping Год назад

Do you like Gaia or onX off road better?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

I have both and I use them for different things. I use Gaia for research, trip mapping prep and real-time tracking. I use OnX for trip research to see where popular trails / roads are and map it on Gaia.

@@DarksideOffRoad sweet thanks. So I live in marion just east of Rochester and my whole family has jeeps. Have you found any places close to Rochester to wheel?

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

@@NorthCountryJeeping the only place is FlexRock 4x4 in Attica. They have a Facebook page and events once a month during the warm months. Everything else is 2+ hours away and pretty much the entire content library of my channel 😎🤘

@NorthCountryJeeping Год назад

@@DarksideOffRoad oh yeah I do nothing but watch your videos it going to explore in Allegany State Park. Actually I was just at Flex Rock in Attica for their opening couple weeks ago. Like to come out and wheel with you sometime. Give my 2-door Rubicon JL some workout.

@DaddyJeepGarage Год назад

We were fishing the Juniata river one time and a big tree fell right across from us. It was pretty cool to watch. I definitely need to put my Jeep in that gravel pit you found. I guess I have to wait until they open the road again in October though.

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

I know you’ve got a big rig but the camera does not do that incline and those rocks justice lol

@DaddyJeepGarage Год назад

@@DarksideOffRoad now I want to go even more... Lol

@taj814 Год назад

I was just exploring FR 267 and the surrounding area in late December when we got all that snow! Also camped out in a few of those spots you showed around 9:18 this last summer. Definitely a fun area!

@DarksideOffRoad Год назад

It was our first time in that area. Was so stoked to see so many sites that could support small groups 🤘

@jonathanribbing3055 Год назад

Oh by the way... my Florida off road trip was amazing. I ended up just taking pavement until we reached Florida. Osceola and ocala national forest along with a state forest. The trails are nothing like what we're used to. I would be willing to go back this spring if your interested. Hitting sandy / muddy trails with the top down in January was A OK 👍

Hello, I would like to do some minor off-Roading and camping with you guys once I finish setting up my truck. I drive an older Land Rover Defender 130 and a LR Defender 90. Watching your videos showed me that there’s places to camp near NYC. Thanks

@gordong3620 Год назад

Check out Moose river plains in the Adirondacks much closer to you.

@jonathanribbing3055 Год назад

I know I have been on those narrow trails and it's bugging me on their exact location. At first I thought it was the owned by bradford water authority. Talk about some pretty fun trails. Can you give me a hint where that narrow trail is? I would greatly appreciate it. I have pretty much been on about 90% of the trails in the entire area. Or was that Collins pine Co land? Hm
