Remember - when it comes to traveling, they adapt to YOUR life. Travel often even when they are young. Take them on planes and road trips to new places and by age 5 they'll be doing 10hr road trips no problem
This is the best video you ever created. Outstanding production values. Loved your focus on the sounds of the wildlife. You created an intimacy with the viewer like never before. What an wonderful son you have too. Thank you 🙏🏻
1st national park. I’m a couple hours away and go every 2-3 years. 💯% bucket list place to trek threw! Took the kids to Mesa Falls and didn’t think about Cave Falls. The next trail we’ll go down.
One of your best videos ever. @28:22 I kept going back and watching this section, pausing it on TV, just wow!! I will have to drive down that trail some day
This was an awesome video! You and your son were great hosts. Wonderful scenery. Thank you so much for taking us along! Ps - 43 minutes is NOT too long!!
What a fantastic channel. It's really nice to see a father who loves his son so much. The whole channel captures what life is really about, making memories with family and enjoying the time we have on earth.
Outstanding video Brad! By far one of my favorite videos you’ve made. Really like how you showed more in depth camp set up. Food choices were excellent! Views were amazing!! Looks like you and your son had a great time! Well done all around!
This is exactly the kind of dad I want to be with my kids these kind of moments are the only ones that matter and your kids will never forget the quality time they get with dads
Not sure how I missed this video a year ago. Second Left Hand is my back yard. Spent my childhood in Parowan Canyon. My parents still live there. It’s fun to watch you guys travel through areas close to us. -Dave
by far one of the best videos. Because it was more slow paced, using the full size rig and trailer which is what we have and doing the type of camping and overlanding that we prefer. We are not into rock crawling(it has its place) but for us this trip is exactly what we do and like. Bravo!!! Please do more
I have enjoy all of your videos, but this is by far my favorite. Everything about this story was right on. Keep up the great work. Thank you for telling such great stories.
Brad, seriously, what an awesome video. Such a heartfelt story, it was great to see the joy from the both of you while you were together. Kudos to Devan for planning the trip, well done. I shared this video with my son and I am certain we’ll do something similar in the coming years. Little more of a trek from the east 😉 keep ‘em coming and Happy Fathers Day 👊🏼💥
I was glad to see more scenic easy/moderate trails. I liked this style video, and seeing you unpack your trailer instead of skipping over all those details. Great job. cheers
@40:30 The smell you will never forget after seeing those pits. Really digging your trailer more and more as I watch these episodes, think I might need to build one to pull behind the XJ.
Just bought my first Jeep Wrangler rubicon, I’m a father of 4yo and a 2yo and can’t wait for our first family adventure! Definitely you’ve become a role model for me. I’ve been following your videos for a while now! Congrats! Greetings from Mexico.
The edit when you are setting up camp was kind of magical at the 5:00 mark. I had to watch it again because it made me space out thinking “why does it look so easy”
Brad, I watched several videos, you are fantastic. Awesome anyone can find here, and you have a great moral compass too. We all have to learn. Thank you...
I don't know if you'll read this. I grew up in So. Utah my dad was a Law Enforcement Officer for the Dixie Nat'l Forest. Seeing you with your son, in the same spots my dad used to take my family, brought back so many fond memories for me. Thank you!
This has become one of my favorite videos you’ve done. Just recently found your channel searching for videos on, local to me, California trails due to the fact we just ordered a Wrangler. After this video I really can’t wait to get my Jeep so we can explore more of this beautiful country.
Glad you got to come up to my home state of MT. Funny you are airing down on roads nicer than what I drive a mid duty KW propane delivery truck with 3k gallons of LP on board!!!
Cheers to you and your son, it’s tough watching them go off to college. Great video and what a great trip you two had. I first visited Yellowstone 56 years ago at two months old, my Grandpa was a huge trout fisherman and Yellowstone was his favorite place to fish and and he wasn’t about to go without his first grandson, and he took me numerous times as I grew older. Memories of him there I hope never leave me. Cherish that time with your son, and congrats on the drive to get that Masters, I’m sure your proud. God bless and safe travels
Wyoming is an amazing place to travel for it is home to some of the most breathtaking natural scenery in the country. there is no shortage of beautiful places to explore in this state., Wyoming is rich in history and culture. , there are numerous museums and historical sites to visit throughout the state. Wyoming is a great place to enjoy outdoor recreation of all kinds, from hiking and camping in the summer to skiing and snowboarding in the winter. thanks for posting this video
I’m Amazed, You Have Given Not Only Me But So Many Others Inspiration For So Long And Produce Such Great Content! Now I Can’t Wait To Go Out And Hit Some Of These Trails Soon! Best To You And The Family, Thank You For Making These Videos!
kudos to your son for planning such an epic trip! impressed by how poised and confident your son is. You must be so proud of him. Seems like you have a great relationship
Great job! Love the nice balance of scenery and conversation! Nice production overall too. Peaceful and very enjoyable to watch. What an epic trip - thanks for sharing!
Fantastic video. We just got back from a motorcycle trip through many of the areas. It was nice to see your great footage of blue skies instead of smoke. :)
That was great! I was lucky enough to do something similar with my two sons just a couple of weeks ago. CA, NV, UT, CO, and back to CA. We stayed at some amazing campsites, did some wheeling on the Alpine Loop, drove some amazing canyons and switchbacks in Moab, etc. Nothing better than making lifetime memories with your family.
Yellowstone is pretty, but Glacier is mind blowing for just rugged beauty!!! And get off the interstate and take HWY 89 through White Sulpher Springs and take a dip in the hot springs. Then through Neihart and Monarch over Kings hill which is one of the prettiest drives in MT!!!!
I finally got to finish watching this video! This is by far the best one you have ever done👍🏼 Devin you are one lucky young man to be doing stuff with your dad like this cherish the moment take advantage of it and don't ever forget. My wife and I have been talking about going to Yellowstone, which we are planning for next year. Thanks again for taking us along!!
I was just at Cave falls last Sunday. Only a hour from my house. Too bad the campground right by cave falls is temporarily closed. You can camp right on Fall river when it is open. There has been a lot of Grizzly activity in this area. Several good hikes up to many more falls on Fall river. Next time to Idaho you have to go Magruders Corridor and also hit the LOLo Trail through wilderness areas.
Unbelievable. You inspired me to explore the western US as i am from new england, and i was at yellowstone and the grand tetons the same days as you guys. Pointed out your trailer to my friend several times then came online and saw it was you!! The power wagon instead of a jeep led me to believe someone else had the same trailer but sure enough it was you guys! small world.
Dude, Yellowstone looks insane! It looks ready to blow! I loved this video so much. I love the travel aspect. I CANNOT WAIT to see you hit all 50 states. Very inspiring. I can't wait for my next adventure.
Nice Film - Quality time together. Thanks a lot for sharing. I take my 2 girls to Iceland with our Arctic Trucks for similar adventures. Great Memories Generator....
Great video. One of your best. It captures everything great about camping. Beautiful scenery, tasty cooking and good camaraderie. Wonderful memories to cherish.
Amazing video! I can't wait to take my son on adventures like this when he is older in our Power Wagon! Also, couldn't help but notice that license plate frame! Navy Chief Navy Pride Brother!
I am doing a similar route through that part of Montana in mid-July. I used to be the lone MHP out of W. Yellowstone 20 + year ago and the Madison Valley is amazing. It broke my heart when I returned to see a bunch of 5 acre "homes" everywhere. I take it you are retired Navy, good for you living the life and making memories with your son. I love seeing people escape the Matrix.
I just saw Marco leaving Sprouts. I'm a big fan of both of you. When I saw him I was watching this video. I just returned from the Denver area, and now I'm planning a trip back in August. I made a reservation in the Dixie Forest. I decided to make reservations for Fridays and Saturdays after having to stay in truck stops on my last trip.
Great video and it’s good to see families out enjoying the great outdoors, your son did a great job on that trip prep and planning.. My wife and I was wondering where you get your velcro state patches for you interior patch collection…? Thanks in advance and God bless you and your family from Ohio…
hey brad i really enjoyed the scenery in this video. as opposed to the usual desolate views you usually show. this was super cool and inspiring. me and my lil bro are planning a similar trip
Awesome Fathers Day video Brad. I’ve got some family in Ennis MT Billings or Bozeman and I can tell ya Riding Snowmobiles in Yellowstone into Idaho is very beautiful site Love this video
Amazing father son trip and I love the naan bread spicy Italian chicken sausage dogs idea with pickles and mustard are you kidding me! Omg Yellowstone is def on my bucket list. It’s just so hard making the time to drive there when living in FL. I know I could fly the family and rent a jeep but where’s the fun in that. I need an excuse to drive across country baby! Happy Father’s Day Brad! Cheers for the awesome content as always.
My son was just born yesterday. Can’t wait to have some real quality time like this with him!
Awesome!
Born in the USA!!
Remember - when it comes to traveling, they adapt to YOUR life. Travel often even when they are young. Take them on planes and road trips to new places and by age 5 they'll be doing 10hr road trips no problem
Congratulations!
@@TrailRecon thanks!
This is the best video you ever created. Outstanding production values. Loved your focus on the sounds of the wildlife. You created an intimacy with the viewer like never before. What an wonderful son you have too. Thank you 🙏🏻
I loved all the camera angles. You can tell he’s been trying new things. 👍
Thank you so much!
I was going to comment how Brad's videos rival the quality of anything any major TV network could put together.
@@karlanderson1791 Truth! Way better content and production values than anything Motor Trend or any other Legacy media produces for TH-cam.
Wonderful sentiment, and i agree.
We are so lucky to have the park system that we do. Don’t take it for granted people.
100% agree!
@@JCreole … Political!
Don't worry the park is safe. People prefer the real wilderness that is Disneyland.
1st national park. I’m a couple hours away and go every 2-3 years. 💯% bucket list place to trek threw! Took the kids to Mesa Falls and didn’t think about Cave Falls. The next trail we’ll go down.

Why would anyone thumbs down this video? They must hate their sons….
Yeah, agreed, wth!
One of your best videos ever. @28:22 I kept going back and watching this section, pausing it on TV, just wow!! I will have to drive down that trail some day
108 people hate camping and off-roading. Thanks Brad for the the work you put into making your videos.
I love these 4 states. Wild, scenic, freedom, fresh air, liberty, family values and faith.
This was an awesome video! You and your son were great hosts. Wonderful scenery. Thank you so much for taking us along! Ps - 43 minutes is NOT too long!!
Thank you! Was a little worried about the length....
What a fantastic channel. It's really nice to see a father who loves his son so much. The whole channel captures what life is really about, making memories with family and enjoying the time we have on earth.
Outstanding video Brad! By far one of my favorite videos you’ve made. Really like how you showed more in depth camp set up. Food choices were excellent! Views were amazing!! Looks like you and your son had a great time! Well done all around!
Dude just the quiet filming of the little things is instructional. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it!
Your son is so adorable. You can tell he's a really good kid.
One of your best all time videos!!! The video quality and editing is superb, you can never beat father and son camping as well!!!
Wow, thanks!
This is exactly the kind of dad I want to be with my kids these kind of moments are the only ones that matter and your kids will never forget the quality time they get with dads
I think this is the best ever video you created! I wish you did more like this. Your camera work is much much better. Great work.
Wow, thank you!
Love the relaxed pace of this video, one of my favorite of yours so far
Awesome, thank you!
Not sure how I missed this video a year ago. Second Left Hand is my back yard. Spent my childhood in Parowan Canyon. My parents still live there. It’s fun to watch you guys travel through areas close to us.

I live in Montana and I feel blessed every day this is a phenomenal state! ❤
Very professional. Feels like I'm watching a TV show! Great job guys.

This video feels like your old really good videos showing more of the vehicle working it and the scenery👍🏽
Devin, you score an A+... Wish the best on your Masters. You'll get an A, I bet..
Trail Recon always scores an A+ !!!!! Beautiful trip...
Nothing more important than family. God bless America and conservatism!! Timmy C Arizona
@40:30 The smell you will never forget after seeing those pits. Really digging your trailer more and more as I watch these episodes, think I might need to build one to pull behind the XJ.
My favorite part is how many times you said, "My son".
You are a good man and dad and blessed to have good son proud of you both
Just bought my first Jeep Wrangler rubicon, I’m a father of 4yo and a 2yo and can’t wait for our first family adventure! Definitely you’ve become a role model for me. I’ve been following your videos for a while now! Congrats! Greetings from Mexico.
Just retired Army. 26 years.
Can’t wait to get out there with our rig.
Thanks for the great video.
Congrats on retirement!
Hey Brad, i think this video best represents the spirit of Overlanding. A work of art! Thank you
the water is so nice and the view and the mountains.
I've watched every one of your overland videos and this one probably takes the cake with scenery. Just beautiful!!
The edit when you are setting up camp was kind of magical at the 5:00 mark. I had to watch it again because it made me space out thinking “why does it look so easy”
Brad, I watched several videos, you are fantastic. Awesome anyone can find here, and you have a great moral compass too. We all have to learn. Thank you...
I appreciate that!
Patriot’s overland camper trailer is so SO amazing!
Absolutely stunning - great father and son trip to watch on fathers day 😎
Brad, thank you for sharing these special moments with all of us. All the best for your and your family.
Outstanding video! Thank you for sharing. Happy Father's Day 🇺🇸

can’t be stated enough, the camera work and editing is top notch. thanks again Brad for the awesome content!
Thank you!
Wow this was probably one of the most scenic trips I’ve seen. Absolutely gorgeous
It was one of my favorites... thank you!
This is what life is about. Thanks for reminding us to get back out there!
What a great trip! Devin, you did a great job planning this one, and good luck with your masters!! As always, love the channel guys! 👍

Such a chill video!!!! Keep the adventures coming Brad and the Trail Recon Team
Just got back from Yellowstone and is a beautiful place. Great camping and now I know some other hidden places. 👍keep it up.
I would love to get the itinerary and follow the paths you took. Those camping locations were unreal! Amazing video, thanks for sharing.
I think this is my favorite video of yours of all time. Special time for sure!
Hands down my favorite video from this channel. Want to go on a trip with my dad

@@TrailRecon Grand Teton is also amazing
What a relaxing trip. I found myself in Yellowstone and that part of Idaho last year too. It really is pretty out there! So much to explore!
Excellent video! Missed a perfect opportunity to drive the Beartooth highway, though. Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho are amazing! Hope you come back.

Thank you and yes, fried is the way to go!
What a beautiful adventure, really loved all the scenery. Thanks for taking all of us shut-ins along.
Brad, what a great trip with your son. Beautiful scenery. only thing can be better is a few aerial shots, but over all, you guys did a wonderful job.
