Our Longest Day Ride Ever on the Paiute Trail. 

Yeah, yeah, yeah.... 🤣 Thanks Dan 👍

Thanks for watching ! Our longest day ride up to this was about 135 miles, so we smashed our old record it was a long day, but the scenery was amazing, so it was worth it.

Thank You

Thank You ! And congratulations on the new machine ! 👍

Good to hear Manzonoman is still around

Thanks ! Not something I'm in a hurry to try again. 🤣

There are a few of them around here these days. Right in Marysvale is Lizzy and Charlies and right close is South Forty. Just don't swing a dead cat or you may hit one. Richfield has a few now. Joseph has one. Probably just easier to type in RV parks near Richfield Utah and there is a bunch. Come on down and enjoy. I believe all gates are open after June 1st.

Thank You ! Thanks for watching 👍

Congratulations !

Thank You ! Yeah, not sure if ever attempt something like that again 🤣

Thanks !

Thank You !

That's awesome ! Congratulations on your new (to you) MT 👍 If your on Facebook and your not already a member, you should check out the Can-Am Maverick Trail Facebook group. Lots of fellow owners in your area. The "Limp Mode" group they call themselves. 👍 My basic rule of thumb for low range is, if I'm going less than 12-15 mph for an extended period of time I'll use low, unless it's down hill or even just a level cruise. Our rule on the Paiute Trail is easy. When we go through a 50 inch gate onto a 50 inch trail we put it in low and 4WD. Most 50 inch trails there are fairly tight and slow moving anyway, and we're in no big hurry, so low range is perfect. Once we go through the gate and out the other side it's back into high and 2WD. In that video we were in low going down the 50 inch section of the Max Reid, and going up that rocky 50 inch section up from Freemont, everything else was in high. We are probably in high 99% of the time. Biggest thing you have to worry about is your belt. It takes a certain rpm (not sure exactly what rpm) to engage the primary clutch fully. If your going slow enough that your clutch isn't fully engaged it's just slipping, that will kill a belt pretty quickly, so it's more about how much work you are putting on your belt based on engine rpm's. I usually just err on the side of caution. I'll even stop, switch to low thru a rocky section, then switch back to high when I'm through it. When we're pulling out little trailer behind we use low a lot more. I hope that helps 👍

@@MyATVlife That was VERY helpful!! ..thanks for putting a response together. ...and yes, we have joined that group on FB

Thank You !

Going back thru my Avenza tracks, depending on the section, our average is between 15-20 mph with a max speed of 42mph. A lot of those big open sections you can make up pretty good time. I don't spend a lot of time above 40mph, I'm most comfortable between 35 and 40, but that on the big open sections, but yeah, roughly 18 mph average. Many slow and rocky sections going slow and lots of wide open spaces going fast. 👍

@@MyATVlife Great info as always! I have another question about this years trip: I know that you have addressed this on last years video that was all about the Piaute, what would you think the gates are at for actual width? I know you have a new wheel/tire setup this year and were concerned about squeaking through the gates. My stock width was less than 50" but I feel that I am somewhere less than 52" now with wheels and tires. I'm not sure of the actual width. I really need to check my actual measurements now. I spent time growing up in Moab, but I've never been down to the Paiute trail system. Thanks as always

I've heard the new gates that they're putting in are 53 inches, but I've never measured one. I am 52.5 inches now and I still fit, but barely.

@@MyATVlife Thank you! I appreciate all that you do for us novices! I'm prepping a buggy and want to build a light overland trailer to spend more time in the wild. While riding in Wyoming this summer, I told my wife "I want to wake up right here sometime in the future" To make that happen, we need to haul more than I can carry on my buggy. I have watched and rewatched your trips with your trailer. Also great info. Makes me feel like a good long overlanding trip is doable.

It is ! And it's a lot of fun ! I wish we had more time for that last Summer, but our schedule just didn't allow it. Hopefully 2023 will be better for us. We miss camping on the trail.

Many. Billion Falls, Hennessy Point, Barney Lake, Manning Meadows. Not sure about springs, but lots of lakes just off of the 01

I gained just over 1 inch in height from my 27 inch tires. These aren't 30 inch tires, they are a 29x9-14 Tusk Terrabite. I've put about 1000 miles on them so far and I love them. I've always been a Terrabite fan. Got 5,000 miles out of my last set 👍. I kept the 27 inch spare cuz I'm cheap. Plus I can unlock my rear diff if I need to put the spare on the rear or go in 2WD if I need to run it on the front. Plus I didn't want to add more weight to the tire carrier.

@@MyATVlife awesome and thanks.

Thank You ! We stay at Pine Creek Cabins up Bullion Canyon in their RV spots. It's a bit windy, but pretty well protected from most of it.

@@MyATVlife Thanks! We went through the area on our way to Payson, Az after spending 4 days in Manti, riding The Arapeen, which included 78f one day, and the following day in snow! Looked at Hoover's up the river and North40RV. Did not get up to Pine Creek. Will check it out. Plan to be there 09 of 23. Thanks, again.

Last week of September

Thank You ! Yes, you'll be fine. I was 51.5 inches with my last set of tires, 52.5 now. Still no problems. Gates are tight for me now, but still doable 👍

If the gates are really tight and tires rub.. inflate up the tires then spray WD40 the outside of the tires... soak them good and slid through.

I like the Fall. Late September 👍

Any time after they open the gates up until they close the gates for the year is great. Some spots are real bad in rainy weather but you usually wait awhile and the weather changes.

Most of what you'd hear is wind noise. I use the music to cover the wind noise

Yes

What kind and where on your machine

I honestly don't remember. It's small, bought it at Lowe's. Can't remember. It's just a standard, small extinguisher. I keep it in my cargo box.

Thank you

In 2017 a friend and I put 1200 miles on are atvs in 9 days on the Paiute trails. Absolutely beautiful area.

Just over 9 gallons. About 9.2
