Utah's TOP 5 Overland Trails 

Anyone have the list of them,?I didn't write them down while watching assuming they would be in the notes and don't want to have to watch again.

5th 0:51 smoky moutian road 4th 2:15 elephant camp road 3rd 3:26 the loop 2nd 5:13 a few trails 1st 7:12 onion creek road

Muddy creek! My family lives in a town right off the muddy. So crazy now that I’m looking into doing over landing I had no clue the amount of good trails near my family’s town of Emery. I grew up in Cali and moved to Kentucky 4 years ago.

I agree - Onion Creek is always on my list. Just wanted to share my favorite. Here's an epic and difficult 'loop' I've done four times, it takes about a week depending on your choices and the weather. Countless places to camp along the way: Stock up in Moab with extra fuel, water, ice and food - supplies are extremely limited on this trip. Head out to Kane Creek/Hurrah Pass and turn left onto Lockhart Basin road before you reach Chicken Corner. The canyon you climb out of on the LB road is probably the most difficult section of this trip. Next you'll wind around cliff faces for a good four hours of jaw-dropping scenery before reaching pavement just outside the Needles district of Canyonlands. Restock gas etc at Canyonlands Needles Outpost before continuing. Head into Needles and take Elephant Hill. Your eventual destination on this segment is somewhere near HITE - go south in the grabens onto Devil's Lane, climb up Bobby's Hole (can be difficult) and continue South on Ruin Park road, then head east on Beef Basin road (088) at the fork. 088 turns into 'Gooseberry Rd' as it climbs over the Abajos. Head west on Elk Mountain Rd (228) where 088 ends. Right before reaching Bears Ears, the road forks with 228 going south though the Bears Ears ending near Natural Bridges. Turn onto Wooden Shoe Rd (256) instead for minimal pavement. Turn north on Fortknocker (2081) when 256 ends. When you reach pavement, the side road to Hite is just across Hwy 95. Recommended side trip, especially when scorching hot: Go over Blue Notch and down to the lake to cool off and maybe camp for a day or two. Blue Notch road is about 45 minutes each way. Stop at Hite for gas etc, and call Hans Flat ranger station to make a reservation at the Doll House (site #1 is best) or Millard, or the Chocolate Drops, or all three if very ambitious, in the Maze. It will probably take an entire day to go from Doll House to Millard. Go north on 95, crossing over the river. Turn north on Flint Trail road (NP633) about a 1/2 mile past the bridge. The next several hours are just so incredible. (Bet you've already been) When done with the Maze, climb up the Flint Switchbacks and say hi to the rangers at Hans Flat. Take a side trip to Robber's Roost if interested, pretty cool. The roads here can be confusing. Eventually you will hit Hwy 24 about a mile north of Hanksville. Stop in Hanksville for supplies etc. So many choices from this point: return to Moab on the highways if you need to, hit the Swell (!), Cap Reef, etc. Great vid

Thank you for the video. This is my only bucket list for me, driving North West and see America before I die.

Elephant Hill has my vote. It’s challenging in spots, hairy in others, and very scenic everywhere. The Devil’s Kitchen campground spot #4 is insane.

Very last drone shot from above the ledge was incredible!! Going to check out a few of these later in the year !

This video unfolds the saga of the solo camper, where every sunrise and sunset narrates a story of solo overlanding. The open road becomes a partner, and the solo camper's journey is a visual testament to the beauty of independence.

In the planning stages of a trip to Utah, this was very helpful, thank you!

I feel like I'm constantly saving videos by you and Justin for reference when I can get out West

Picking five favorites is impossible, we spent a month in the area last summer and every time we thought we found our new #1 favorite trail, we found another #1.

Brilliant summary. And as always great placement of cameras to get the best views of the trail. That includes great use of drone angles. 👍

I love the drone footage on these!!

This was a great video. Thank you!!

I love how you include distance for the trails. Plan to take my Rivian R1S on these trails (as well as doing some mountain biking) and the distance give me a good range idea.

Beautiful Trails - I Hope To Do Them One Day

Man, I’ve got to get out there to Utah in the next year. AMAZING video as usual. 👊🏼

Great video. Thanks! Gotta get there.

Great video! Love that you make a realistic vs a puffy chested call out as to what is really needed for various scenarios. (Some channels will say that all of these trails require built out off road rigs. Despites others saying they've done it in lesser.) Putting some of these on my list once I beef up the Subaru a bit. I've already done Shafer top down in a stock Honda Element. So some of these in a plated, tired, and minor lifted Forester sound reasonable.... weather permitting.

Enjoyed your video! Southern Utah is my favorite place for off roading and making videos.

Awesome video!

great list!

Incredible Video!

I'm doing a 3 inch lift, new tires, new brakes and a tune up on my 97 4runner to do exactly this! I've lived in Utah most of my life and have never done any off roading besides dirt biking at the sand dunes

Went to Utah earlier this month, I really liked Shafer switchbacks to Shafer Road then coming out near Moab on Potash road. The 17 miles off of the 24 to get to Cathedral Valley and Temple of the Sun in Capital Reef was also pretty awesome.

thanks for sharing.

2/24 update on Schafer and Long canyon. Both were in good shape and I could do with my Subaru just fine

Thank you. Fine job. Regards from Ody Slim

The very few people part is changing quickly, the secret is out. Overall great video

Once again, great vid! You hit it spot on, we spend a lot of time over in Utah doing the non publicized trails. Actually have done all of these and they are amazing. I could add quite a few trails to this list that I’m sure you know about. But there are so many how do you pick🤷‍♂️😊👍

good answer and Im there right now breaking in new gears. Uploading a full walkaround of Trail Mater its loonng but Rory was in rare form. lol. Great video and spots.

I would put these as average roads ,good driving

beautiful overlanding trails 👣 😍

Hey Revere Overland!, you did an awesome job covering the state of Utah!👍 And now all you have to do is, go to The Four Corners (Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico), and break dance on all corners!😂 Then you can mention to people that, you've been In ALL Four states at the exact same time!!!👍👍🤠🥳🥳🥳

Loved the video, i just got a gmc 2500 at4 diesel truck, what traul should i start on

What is the location of the shot with vehicles parked near the cliff? I've seen other videos of camping and would love to camp there but can't seem to find the name.

Thinking about just laying my sleeping bag on top of my tonneau cover instead of pitching a tent...are bugs a problem out there in April? Any other tips for camping in a pickup truck when out there?

Should make a part 2 of cool trails in Northern Utah!

Gorgeous... other words matter...

This video makes me want a drone.

05:34 - What roof cargo box is that on the 4Runner? I haven't seen any looking like that one when checking on many brands websites. I want something like that, so wide and fits the 4Runner roof. Anybody knows?

I am trying to find The Elephant Gap Trail on OnX Offroad and I am unable to find it. None of the trails I can see even go into Zion Nat Park, the Elephant Gap trail doesn't match his description, however the Shunesburg Maildrop is the closest one that does. Is this the trail he is talking about or the Elephant Hill Trail in Moab?

So can I do most of these with a lifted AWD Sienna? Or am I better off in a 4Runner?

where can i see the trails? and follow them.. any map or application?

0:20 is a fantastic view! That's really here? Where at, if you dont mind me asking

Awesome list and very helpful! What is the trail at 8:31? That shot looks particularly incredible

All great calls. Onion is beautiful anytime. But, inclement weather magnifies its beauty. I'll throw my wildcard in. Fortknocker Canyon road just east of the Hite Marina. Route it to Bears Ears. Bring hiking shoes .....

The second I hit the lottery, I am moving to UTAH... lol..

Why do you follow so close getting the dust from the truck in front ,are you scared of getting lost ?

Hit us up next time you are in southern utah!

Are lockers a needed? Rear? front and Rear?

excellent recommendations.. i'm sure you're a busy new Dad, but when's the next (family) trip? cheers !

Trail locations ?

Would Elephant Hill be doable with a small off-road trailer, in your opinion, or would I be better off leaving it behind? Downhill of course. 😁 An Xterra would be pulling.

Hey I live in utah and me and my wife would love to tag’s along and make some videos

Now we wait for Colorado's 10 overland trails.👍

Going to Utah and looking for a overland TRUCK for 1 week and I would love to find something to explore out side path so 4x4 for 2 adultes -zion -Brice -capital réel -arches -canyonland ....

define unskilled driver....

Very few people???

I have a 2022 Jeep Cherokee Limited with the AD1 (No Low Range / No rear locker) and would love to do these. Any ideas on if it would have any issues? Doesn't look too rocky at all which is my kind of trails I would love to do.

Would like to have a name for you besides ‘that guy on revere overland’

FIRST!

you really gotta state where the drones were... we dont care if they were or werent in the park, were not gonna tattle on you
