The day has finally come when we were able to get out to do this trip again.
This route alone was one of the reasons I got hooked into doing all of this RU-vid stuff. After my first or second trip I said to Mike... "Wouldn't it be awesome to record this?" and then being able to share it with family or friends who may not ever get to see this?
My adrenaline still rushes and I was beyond thrilled taking two people who have never done anything close to this before.
Mike and I have many stories about this route. We've had our moments of frustration and inexperience leadings us to make some silly choices. Even with those little frustrations, when you finally arrive at the destination it's so worth it!
It always amazes me how the landscape changes, especially with beavers involved. Almost unrecognizable from year to year.
Anyway, enjoy Part 1 of this great trip us four
guys had.

Hey Buddy ! What a good video ! I Gave it a share on Instagram for ya ! WOW what a trail ! and it was made so much worse with that AC not having 4WD or a winch.... that sucks.... it made so much more work for all of yahs, BUT you guys handle it great, all stayed in good spirits and you didn't leave him behind haha That camping spot.... just beautiful ! isn't is crazy.. it seems like the worse the trail, the more beautiful spot you get to. I'm going to have to check out Part 2 ! Great video man ! really enjoyed it.

@ElevationATV Год назад

Hey man, thanks for checking out the video and the comment. Means alot when one of my original influencers appreciates and enjoyed the video. Sucks having issues with the Cat but even with all the issues we still managed to make it! We also couldnt leave him behind, my mother in law would have our heads haha. That camping spot is the reason I got hooked on ATV camping... and to think there are many more we haven't seen yet! One day! Party 2 is still in post, I hope to have it done soon! Thanks again!

@SoCalOutlanderATV Год назад

What a great ride! Wish there was more places like this to ride where I'm at.

@ElevationATV Год назад

Hey! Thanks, assuming you're from So-Cal? Haha. Not much for riding or just this type of riding? Some real gems up here in Canada.

@SoCalOutlanderATV Год назад

@@ElevationATV There's not much riding period. The majority of offroading here would be out in dry lakes, deserts, or sand dunes. But forested areas there's very little of and places to ride with water there's maybe 2 locations at the most.

@ElevationATV Год назад

@SoCal Outlander ATV Damn, that's not good! We have lots of sand pits and sandy areas here. Not my favorite places to ride... love venturing into the forests. I'll be working on a new video shortly from this weekends past ride. Stay tuned...

@quaddingsous Год назад

YEAH BUDDY, that looked like a whole mitt full of fun! I love these videos where there's a destination and a bit of work to get there. The anticipation makes the video so much better. Sucks that the 4WD and winch calved out on the Cat. What are the odds? Trails were amazing! I remember the beaver pond area and the rocky areas from the first(?) ATV fishing trip you shared. 35:30 - EXACTLY IGOR! Couldn't agree more! Awesome video buddy! Loved it!

@ElevationATV Год назад

I know hey? We're not sure when the 4WD drive stopped working, it really hasn't been in any rough terrain awhile. Same with the winch, honestly can't remember the last time it was used? But hey, should be checking these things BEFORE the trip anyway lol. Atleast we managed to make it. We were at that first area where Jord got stuck for over 45 minutes.... was brutal lol. I love these kind of trails... the ole ticker beats just a bit harder! Thanks for watching and the comments as always Q.

What a bummer to not have an operating winch or your differential to lock when you need 4x4. But you guys were able to work together to get out of that jam in the mud. That spot there by the lake looked awesome! I look forward to part 2! Cheers man. A cold one off the trail hits the spot.

@ElevationATV Год назад

Yeah! No kidding... both issues on the Artic Cat were news to us! Mine was just jammed up or not wound back properly. I've already fixed that. Rolled it all our and wound it back up properly. Things you should do BEFORE heading out, am I right? 😆 Thanks for the comment and watching Ruben.

@ElevationATV Год назад

Hey Norm, yes there was a damaged seal on the 4WD actuator. We actually had another ride after this that we had some issues with the 4WD as well. We took the actuator off and tore it apart a couple of weekends ago and it was full of water. I believe my father-Inlaw already has the replacement. We just need to install and buttoner back up. Thanks for watching and commenting buddy. 🙂

We've learned from past trips to be cautious in that area lol. We've learned that when beavers are involved, the landscape changes frequently. So better to play it safe!

Done I’m surprised you guys didn’t have a beer after all the frustration of that cat being stuck …..don’t you know cats don’t like water lol 😂 but you guys got through without too much blood sweet and tears . I like this trail be a fun entertaining one . Some of my group likes this stuff and one doesn’t haha.

@ElevationATV Год назад

Yeah, I know. It bugs me... because the video on my computer that I edited is clean and looks fantastic. They just butcher it here which is really starting to get on my nerves. I spend alot of time making sure it's perfect before I export it so it's a let down for sure. Haha yeah, Cat's and water. This was more of mud I guess? Honestly if he didn't get hung up on the stump he might have made it. Was WAY better than years past through there. I love these trails, I could do this route or around there a few times a year. Lots more to explore too! Thanks for watching buddy.

And their really the only trails I know... sandy, whooped out, roots, tight turns, with occasional down trees requiring either a reroute, a cut, or a new trail pushed out through the brush. I got some vids of the dirt bike trails on my channel if you wanna see them for perspective.

Great video! Really good stuff. Just a question, is it required to wear helmets in Canada? Even way out there? Or are you guys just smarter and safer than us Colorado goobers.

@ElevationATV 5 месяцев назад

Haha, goobers. Yeah, we're required to wear helmets here. Even if we weren't, I probably still would! Especially on trails like these. I don't wear one when riding/maintaining our trails, though. They're flat, short, and we don't/can't go fast on them. Thanks for the compliment and checking out the video!

@bigjay6743 Год назад

One thing you can do with those cats that I had to do before is take the servo off and manually shift it in the 4 wheel drive with your thumb and then put the server back on and then just leave it in 4 wheel drive.

@ElevationATV Год назад

I have read that. Maybe look at that if the new actuator kicks the bucket.

@blaze_atv Год назад

Man, your editing is phenomenal. What program do you use? And what GoPro settings? Mine seem to pixelate a lot more when uploading to RU-vid. You had to be covered in mud! Gotta hate when the machines aren’t working correctly and it disrupts your plans. Still better than being at work! Awesome lake spot at the end. Beautiful!

@ElevationATV Год назад

I really appreciate that! Thanks! I spend alot of time toying around with different things to create a story out of what we recorded so it means alot when people notice it. RU-vid pixelates and degrades alot of my stuff too, though I have found that some of my videos look better in some places than others. It's weird, when I'm at work they look terrible but when I'm at home they look good. Maybe its just the wifi connection? I don't know but RU-vid still rakes the resolution regardless. I edit with Wondershare Filmora 11 currently. I like it, pretty user friendly. As for settings, I had my GoPro set at 1080 30fps, which I kinda goofed on. I meant to set at 1080 60fps.

Those Arctic Cat 4 wheel drive system is the biggest pile garbage They should have just left it alone and kept the manual shift 4 wheel drive Like the older ones never had a problem. Even all newer bikes they all have stupid servo that always goes bad eventually Is it really that hard to manually shift it in the 4 wheel drive why would they ever change that.

@ElevationATV Год назад

I'm not all that familiar with how they used to be but this one is a 2011. We were pretty shocked at how little there was to the 4WD actuator when we had removed and opened it up. Didn't take much damage/wear for it to take on water which was the cause of it not working properly (obviously). There was one more ride after this one that we had nothing but issues with it. But spoiler alert, it's all fixed up now and ready for the trails again.
