- Day 6 of Ultimate Adventure (UA) was a road day, traveling from Oliver Springs to Kimball, Tennessee. After all of these years, though, the group knows that UA isn’t just going to lead them down the interstate. Instead, it led them down US 129, through the “Tail of the Dragon” to Deals Gap, North Carolina. The Tail of the Dragon is an 11-mile paved road with 318 turns-popular with motorcycles and sports cars.
The final day of Ultimate Adventure (UA) 2022 wrapped up on Day 7 at Coalmont OHV Park in Coalmont, Tennessee. Unlike the private parks visited earlier in the week, Coalmont is public land that the town bought from Grundy County with federal RTP funds, and although past years that have ended with a bang (literally) as participants abandoned the mantra of “wheel for the week, not for the day,” this year was relatively tame, covering trails in the 1,347-acre park. Still, the day started roughly for invited reader Matt Anderson, whose 302 engine developed a bad rod-knock. Then Ian Johnson and Jeff Ismail battled electrical issues, and Ken Smith managed to tear his transfer case mount off on the way to a huge limestone cave in Coppinger Cove.

Great Job! Whoever decided to go back to full length episodes made the right call.
I'm glad they made decent videos this year instead of 5 minute episodes last year they need to be 15-20 minutes minimum in my opinion
After being incredibly disappointed with how short and lacking last year's videos were, you guys come back this year and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!!! lol Great work on the content this year everyone. I'm getting closer to finishing my 79 big bronco project, and I can not wait to apply to do this! I've been reading and watching UA stuff for forever it seems like now, and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that my rig and I are cool enough to get picked. 😁
Love that 88 Runner & stoked he made it all the way through.
Won't lie, I was puckered for those half shafts many times.
Just don’t feel the same watching this without Rick pewe being involved.
Agreed miss the “drivers meeting”
Ditto
Miss him too. And his main yell driver's meeting
Where is he?
@@CodyMacRae1 He retired from Motor trend. Check out his new channel, Gone-Gpn.
Wish Rick was there, its like a family reunion with out your cool uncle showing up.
Appreciate the “full length” return of UA! Redemption. Cheers guys!
Man watching the whole series makes me want to buy a 4Runner
I have an 06 and also had an 01. They are outstanding rigs! Im a jeep guy(currently own 3)but ill always have a Toyota.
This year’s UA was RAD!! Totally enjoyed watching every episode. Thanks for being awesome!! All the rigs were super cool!
James Ryder your Tacoma is badass!! Never looked like it was phased or close to being stuck. It was fun to watch.
Driving in and out of that cave is the coolest experience I've ever had off-road.
Great stuff. Agree with Nate, our little part of the US has some great wheeling. So pleased with these episodes and coverage.
My home town trails for the ending awesome videos. Y'all come back ya hear.
I love living in east tennessee. Its awesome being able to go out and drive 421 on the weekend
They just did a major upgrade to the grounds @ Coalmont, it's just down the road from my property is just the other side of Tracy City and my brother in law owns 100 acres adjacent to the property. Great hunting and wheeling & peaceful living here.
Thank you for the awesome content.
thanks very little MT
Excellent video. I'll have to take a trip down there. I'm up in Pennsylvania. Not far away. Thanks guys.
Definitely needed to see more of the vans!
Another fantastic year of UA. I watch this every year. Still think you need to more in the south and also think about doing winter UA. Be cool to see these thing wheeling on the snow. Thanks for the ultimate Adventure once again.
Yes!! Loved all these.
It's NOW officially U.A. since the Quigley van has a broken window covered in cardboard!!
21?! Guy looks like he's 37. Happy Birthday!
Bobby definitely should have unlocked his e locker before running Tail of the Dragon! 🤣
Improves drifting capabilities?……
Coppinger Cove is a whole different beast after a good rain. those trails in the creek bed are all under water with little visibility of the rocks beneath. If you are out there when it starts to rain hard you'll get flooded in lace in a hurry for sure. There's few laces like it to wheel. Fun to see it on UA. If you break, don't leave your rig there alone. There's burned u vehicles all over the lace. IYKYK.
I like that quote about about the only wheeling that scares a real wheeler is the highway lol
Thank you Tim for representing the M-715's
What a awesome diverse group of vehicles!
Great series, Looking forward what 2023 will bring!
Seeing the toyotas was awesome!!!
I want to drive around on big rocks and eat. Next year maybe.
Use to ride coalmont all the time. We all road this as locals every weekend back in the day.
Great work, y’all!
Give me more! I could watch hours of this.
Awsome ride but su ks for anyone that drove awhile to rip that road haha
Coppinger Cove is a great place!!!
That 2002 Tacoma is so rad.
Great coverage this year! Last years was terrible lol. No offense.
As always, I’m sorry to see it come to an end!😢
Maybe one day I’ll have a rig worthy of UA and I’ll be able to go.
I’m not a huge Toyota guy but I really like that tundra
A lot of us Coalmont locals call that cave. AC cave.
Would love to go on a UA trip. Unfortunately it's out of my reach. My 4wd is also no where near ready.
Love that!
Should be more than once a year.
Nice TH-cam video
I saw Fred using that MAC ratchet and thought i have the same one but mines broken and sure enough so is his.
😁😎
Yay
When I wish I was there I don't live far from that, off-road part
How about we just 4x4 and keep all the road stuff to the road cars.
What trails are these at Coalmont? We ran a lot of the park this weekend and didn’t see half of these trails.
I drive a 2018 JLUR - and and I'm Computer Engineer. Yes, to fix a JL, just reboot it. 9/10 times that all it takes. LMAO! I also highly recommend having a code scanner like BlueDriver and a Tazer JL for altering many of the electronic controlled functions of the Jeep. I was so happy when Jeeps got computerized. Finally something I can work on myself. c[_] cheers!
Need to make a youtubers UA
Matt’s off-road recovery, fab rats, bleepin Jeep, mighty car mods, who else?
Nate is the man! Check out his channel if you haven't already.
What communications systems do you use?
I'm kinda curious how much it costs the individual to do ultimate adventure
Lots of variables. But figure 5-6 hotel nights, fuel to get there, fuel during the event and whatever you eat plus any emergency parts you may need. But it’s worth it in my opinion.
Toyota is owned by Japan.
mcgee will be 300 lbs by ua30
Awesome series guys love all the rigs you got participated this year hard to pick a favorite lovin’ it!
I don’t find this an adventure!
