Watch Part 1: • Towers, Caves, Camping...
We begin day 2 of this epic Monongahela West Virginia overland adventure waking up at the top of a 4000 foot mountain peak. Dean and I cook up some breakfast and Austin plots our route. It's an absolutely gorgeous early fall day in the forest, but there's another treat in store - the largest river ford I have ever done, and it's pretty deep too!

Looks like a killer trip!

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

It was pretty incredible! Thanks for watching!

@austinganzermiller3553 2 года назад

This trip was absolutely epic. I can’t wait for the next one where we try to top it. I think I know where we might be off to next..

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

Cannot wait.

So I finally did this earlier this month. but we went the opposite direction as ya'll did. That river crossing was really something else! and a fun route for sure!

@DirtRoadTherapy Год назад

Awesome! Such a fantastic area. I bet the river was a little higher than when we did it

@bigzoffroad Год назад

@@DirtRoadTherapy not sure, when we went through it was about 3 feet deep? I’m 6’7” and it was just below my waste line. Either way, First time a water crossing has made me so nervous and so excited! Haha

@trevorthomas5552 2 года назад

Crossing the Dryfork is always a damn good time. I was just there with the kiddos last weekend and it was low enough to park in the middle and get out to grab some photos.

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

Awesome!

@robscott2013 Год назад

@@DirtRoadTherapy SO where is that crossing (apparently of the Dry Fork River?) I thought you guys were further West in Otter Creek Wilderness area?

@Forgvn.Adventures 2 года назад

Great video! NJ used to allow climbing observation towers into people started throwing TV's off & cutting the steel structure. When I was young, the fire wardens would invite you into the "house" & spend as much time talking as you had to spend! Also, I know the out of gas feeling. My V8 Commander has me leaving the trail multiple times in search of fuel. Good job Jon!

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

Yeah exactly, it’s people’s crappy behavior that has gotten so much locked down ☹️ times change. Wish I could go back and hang out with a fire warden in a lookout that would be so cool. I bet they had some neat maps and knowledge of the area. Thanks for the feedback!

Bickle knob tower was the absolute first place I ever took my jeep when I bought it we trailered it to Elkins from Tennessee then took a trip to Canaan with friends, the view was incredible from the top of the tower the week we were there with the trees in full fall color

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

That’s so rad!

@jeepdoctv 2 года назад

Y’all a crazy climbing those old towers! Lol

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

@f-bomboverlanders4459 2 года назад

Looked amazing. I believe i did that washout before. It lookes like Canyon Rim. Great footage. I would love to get coordinates to that cave. I want to see this with my own eyes!

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

Yes it is Canyon Rim if memory serves. Shoot me a DM on Instagram @dirtroadtherapyjon I’ll set you up with coords to Sinks.

Sinks of Gandy Caves

@VidiotDKS 2 года назад

The only thing that would have made this trip better is a little fall color. Such a good time.

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

I know, it was nice to catch a glimpse but we were too early for peak

@JayDee25895 2 года назад

wish they never invented Muzak....

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

Is that a dig on the music choice? Because Muzak is a service used in retail stores, not where anyone sources music for RU-vid.

@@DirtRoadTherapy bad tunes are just that. Crunching rock and motor sounds could Even be used when you film with a drone....

Great video: did you ever do anything special to make the vw alternator survive water crossings? I seem to remember killing one out in moshannon?

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

I killed the bearings in the original. This one has been running fine. It gets wet it stops charging for a few minutes till it dries out. I haven’t done anything to this one

@DaddyJeepGarage 2 года назад

"Pa has watch towers too, but they are gated and fenced" So true. We aren't allowed to have any fun on our state or federal land here.

@DirtRoadTherapy 2 года назад

I wouldn’t say NO fun…but they definitely have put away some cool stuff behind lock and key. It’s not the agencies fault really, it’s people making bad choices that does it every time ☹️
