    This is our vlog, we will be documenting the different things we go and do along the way. The common theme will be our corgi who goes along with us! We have a Corgi, a Jeep and a travel trailer. I'm a computer programmer, I use cannon eos m50 and gopro to film (and enjoy/learning to film). We enjoy reviewing and documenting things life presents us with. We are part-time RV, and working towards retirement and becoming full time RV/retired (many years out). Currently this is a hobby of mine, but I would hope this becomes something bigger by the time we retire. Trying to be honest, and helpful.

    I just wanted to say thank you for your videos. They really have been really helpful for my wife and I planning our last 2 trips to VA. Thanks to you we were well prepared and knew what to expect at Flagpole Knob and Peter’s Mill Run and camping in the area. Your videos prevented us from making pretty big planning errors on those trips. It was really nice having a good idea where to look for camp or getting lost on an atv trail

    Thank you for a great video. I'd been thinking of coming down from South Jersey to do this ride. I'd tried watching some TH-cam videos but so many people think they're rock stars. You channel is a welcome change. Your calm, professional, well-spoken style is much appreciated. Thank you for that as well. I'm subscribed & watching as often as I can while dreaming of when i can ride down! Great job!

    just did this in a stock 2012 forester 5MT w/wildpeak tires from north to south. This trail is NOT EASY for crossovers. There is one very difficult obstacle at the end where you will bottom out unless you drive super close to the left dropoff (if you have a crossover). Stock Crosstrek/Forester is the bare minimum for this trail.

    Great way to get your feet wet and break in your stock 4x4. There are some well placed obstacles that allow you to take an alternate more difficult line for cool photos.
    Probably a 2ish hour trail if you don’t stop anywhere very long.

    1:40 rather than go to the gas station if you go 100 yards down and make a left on Shenandoah Ave you can go to the USFS ranger station for the entire park at 95 Railroad Ave Edinburg VA and not only get your permit but you can get current info on the trail conditions.

      @corgily I've done a decent amount of four-wheeling not only in Jeeps but in trucks also figured this would be a good place to start for my wife and get her broken into it .I run heavy equipment so most days I'm four-wheeling anyway

    I did this trail last year with snow ❄️ on it. At 16:29 the Jeep club I went with did go up that obstacle, they said it was ok. The snow made it a little more fun and interesting at a couple of the shelf road spots as we around the top. We did it the opposite direction.

      You don’t have to have an expensive Jeep to get out and have fun, I have done this trail twice. I bought a 5,000$ four wheeler to do things like this. Nothing wrong with going Jeeping at all, but I feel like I had just as much fun as they did.

    I've looked at many of your videos and my brother and I did Peters Mill last year in his Subaru Forrester, with a 1" lift and a full set of skid plates. I've also looked at many videos of the Union Springs side of Flag Pole Knob and even though, I now have a Bronco Sport Badlands, with a 2" lift, I'm not ready to try Union Springs. Are any of the Green trails at Rausch or AOAA less difficult, than Union and, if so, can you tell me which trails, might be the easiest? Most interested in AOAA, as a Bronco Nation group is going there, in the spring.

    Buddy we just did this trail yesterday .. going south to north is cheating lol its just basically all drop offs going that way .. ya need to do it north to south where ya have to climb those obsticals , way harder that way… this one guy made a video, he is like yea i just did the peters mill trail whole way in 2wd .. i just laughed yea the easy way you aint doing it north to south in 2wd ,, next time do the trail the opposite direction it is way more fun and challenging… at 13:04 in your video is one of the obsticals that is more challenging going the other way ..

    • @moneybadger1456
      @moneybadger1456 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yea all the hard obstacles are near the south entrance. If you go south to north you go up the easy/moderate obstacles and go down the hardest obstacle at 13:04 and if you go north to south you have to go up the hardest obstacle and down the easy/moderate ones.
      I did this north to south in a stock 2012 forester 5MT and it was hard because no low range and not much ground clearance
