Hello! so cool that you came to our neck of the woods, looking forward to do this SCAR on a 3 days weekend with the family. Thank you so much for sharing!
Really cool to see you offroad near Parsons Mtn in Abbeville SC. I ran those roads a few times so my son would take a nap. Pretty sure you passed right by my grandma's road at one point too
So sorry we missed you guys on our Tennessee/Kentucky road trip from Texas. We had a great time up around the Lamb Mountain area. WindRock was a blast for us to. Maybe we can catch up again sometimes and looking forward to more Tennessee/Kentucky adventures. Thanks guys. Looks like you had a great time as well. Rock Solid Rig A Long Long Way to GO
Low Country Fish Camp is an awesome hole on the wall. It's only about 5 minutes from my house. We actually have 2 of our KY license places hanging up there, that we gave them when we first moved down here.
Another excellent adventure. I could sit by a babbling brook looking at that old stone bridge all day while contemplating life and watercoloring. Thanks for sharing!
This video popped up in my recommended so I started watching because I live in SC. Didn’t look up the SCAR before watching. Had to pause the video at 13:16 because I know that spot! Park my truck up by there often and hunt that little WMA. That area is known for its unique granite outcrops. There’s a really cool old plantation house with massive granite columns just off the planned route in Stoneboro. Should check it out if you do it again
@CoddiWomple, Absolutely beautiful and great historical sites, Awesome camping adventure and overlanding trails, Graffiti everywhere Absolutely uncalled for, love your channel and keep doing what your doing brah 👌, see you guys on the next adventure, stay safe and safe travels brahda 👍 🤙✌ 👊
Dang, I'm sorta bummed you were in my backyard and I didn't get to meet you! Glad you had a great trip! I still have to finish a few sections of the SCAR.
Hi guys. I live in Australia, and I love watching your trips, and the beautiful countryside you explore. Your videos are awesome, so keep it up, and take care out there,😁😂
@@CoddiwompleOverland Awesome 😄 So until then, I wish you all safe travelling, and please say G'day to your travelling companions for me as well 😊 Cheers for now. 😁
We use Gaia to plan our routes. This is a BDR route. You can search Backcountry Discovery Routes to find the different ones or search discovery routes.
Another great video, went to college at USC for a year but never made to Marion Nat. Forest. Also you were mentioned in a Ozark Overland video, moving up in the world!!!
Great video! I’ve done a couple of adventures trails in Wyoming, but would love to explore the American SE. What dates, what time of year did you run the SC Adventure Trail. Thanks
Thanks for sharing. Like others I appreciate the videos in the southeast. I live in south Mississippi and not much outside of the region is currently a feasible option.
Hey Coodiwhomple. I mentioned to you before that I loved your videos. It has put a spark in me to want to do what you all do. So In November I made a deal with my wife and myself. If I drop my weight down to 350 by April 22 my wife will get me a Overlander Nomatic 3. I watch your videos every day while on the treadmill. 1 time at 3am before work and 4pm after work. As of today my weight is 358. I changed my TH-cam channel to Midlife crisis adventures. One day I want to meet y’all at the expo and thank you for your videos. Can’t wait to see the second episode of the South Carolina star trip.
That would be awesome. I have a 9 year old son that watches your videos to and he’s going to be my co-pilot. Maybe next year when I have this under my belt. We would love to meet all of you or most of you at the expo next year if y’all are going. Be safe.
You sir are a true definition of hard work and perseverance. I applaud you for the hard work. I hope you make all your dreams come true. I once heard….those that have their health have a 1000 dreams and those that don’t have only 1. Way to go man !!!!…..Live life today…tomorrow never gets here. Never look back and safe travels on your road to adventure.
Wish I had known you were in the area. I don't live far off of Hwy 11. Been to the Old Poinsette Bridge many times. Did you go up by Gorges and Lake Jocassee? Enjoy your content.
I wouldn't know how to react not seeing your wiper blades in your videos! Great job,those dirt were really well kept. Looking forward to meeting you at the Moore Expo this year.
my wife got a 2018 jeep renegade trailhawk, she got it just over a week ago, a little over 52,000 miles, we've been looking at a tiny camper to pull with it,, i know you guys have a roof top tent, but,, if we met up with you,, would our trailer be a hindrance ?? we don't want to tent camp if possible
As a native South Carolinian that has watched you guys travel all over this great country, it was interesting to see my home state from your perspective. Although I was raised in Greenville, SC, I spent over 20 years in Moncks Corner, right on the edge of the Frances Marion NF and have driven some form of Jeep or 4x4 F150 on most every road in the forest. We are now retired and living in western NC, very close to where you began the route. Excuse the litter in SC, it is one of our largest embarrassments.
My biggest advice is to be careful in the mud. It can be an inch deep, or a foot, and it all looks the same. I have been stuck more in FMNF than any other place.
They told us no RV, car, or Van. They said if your in or on your vehicle you cannot disperse camp. Dispersed camping is for tents that are able to be packed into the woods so many feet from the road. I can't remember how far he (the ranger said). Cause we seen some great spots.
I have watched many of your videos and would like to start overlanding in my Tacoma. What type of navigation software or resource do you use in your adventures to find your non-paved roads?
We use the GaiaGPS app premium edition. You can find predestined routes to get you started by searching for and downloading gpx Giles for back country discovery routes
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video! Unfortunately it doesn't look like AEV makes a bumper for the '21 that is compatable with the stock PW winch so the search is on for a solution. We'll keep you all updated! - Kelly
I'm glad to see the folks in the red jeep getting some upgrades, but at the risk of sounding sarcastic (and I don't buy any means), what's up with those jugs on the fendors and that propane tank in the roof sticking up as a branch hanger?? That's just really unsafe. Typical overland mounted normally have those protected behind like the rack bars, or anything else.
JT, they use the jugs on the side to carry water. While maybe not the most stylish to some, they serve a purpose. As far as the propane goes, I would also put it in another location to better protect it also but, it's not my rig.
Ya did pretty good on this video I enjoyed it but sir you mispronounced general Marion’s name quite a few times Also you missed quite a few of the muddy trails
Another awesome video! That place looks so sweet! I just got into overlanding myself. You'll have to check out my f350 overland build on my channel! Keep up with the awesome content!
Thanks for the roadtrip videos, its cool to see the east coast options out there for those of us who dont serendipitously live in Moab..
Thanks for watching!
Really appreciate the style and pace of your videos...and thanks for sharing areas in the Eastern U.S👍🏾
Thank you!

Yes definitely check it out.
Good to see Allen and Nancy!!!
Yes, we were glad to have them along.
I really enjoyed your video. 🤩⭐️
Thanks for Sharing! 👍🏼💕

We love to find places like that.
Great video! Going up there July 4th weekend
Thanks! Safe travels and have fun.

You are in my neck of the woods when you were at the Massacre site. I hunt down there. Hope you enjoyed the state of South Carolina.
We really enjoyed it, thanks
@CoddiWomple, Absolutely beautiful and great historical sites, Awesome camping adventure and overlanding trails, Graffiti everywhere Absolutely uncalled for, love your channel and keep doing what your doing brah 👌, see you guys on the next adventure, stay safe and safe travels brahda 👍 🤙✌ 👊
Thank you for the amazing compliment .
My home state :) I will definitely do this trail system when I go back home again with my Jeep.
Dang, I'm sorta bummed you were in my backyard and I didn't get to meet you! Glad you had a great trip! I still have to finish a few sections of the SCAR.
Thanks for watching! Would have been great to bump into you. We love meeting great folks out on the trail! Maybe next time! - Kelly
I really enjoyed this video.
Thank you!
You're saying the parts with rocks looked like Viginia and the rest reminded me of around my home in the NJ Pinelands
Cool
Hi guys. I live in Australia, and I love watching your trips, and the beautiful countryside you explore. Your videos are awesome, so keep it up, and take care out there,😁😂
Thank you so much! We would love to see Australia some day
@@CoddiwompleOverland You're most welcome, and if you do get down under, I'd love to do a trip with you both, 😁
We would love that!
@@CoddiwompleOverland Awesome 😄
So until then, I wish you all safe travelling, and please say G'day to your travelling companions for me as well 😊
Cheers for now. 😁

Where was yalls pre-determined campsite on the first night? Love your videos!
We will have to check. We are currently traveling.
Nice video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching
Another great video, went to college at USC for a year but never made to Marion Nat. Forest. Also you were mentioned in a Ozark Overland video, moving up in the world!!!
Thanks! Matt and Cara are great people! We talk to them occasionally and are trying to get our schedules aligned so that we can do a trip together.
Bill was a huge help to us on our recent Kentucky trip!
“Waking up to a whisper of sunshine and the smell of Kelly”. Ha!!
Right!! 😂
Thanks guys, great video. Live oaks are crazy tree's
Yes they are!
Wow, I love the Gladiator!
Thank you!
Poinsett Bridge I worked at boy scout camp there for 8 summers spent the night on that bridge many a night with first year campers Program
Very cool!
The old Poinsett Bridge is only 8 miles from our house
😎 cool!
It's about 6 miles from where I live.❣️ the place.
Beautiful area
Great job....
Thank you!
Are you sure you weren't starting south of Hendersonville, NORTH Carolina? Poinsett Bridge is close to Hendersonville, NC.
I'll have to go back and check the map.
Yes, you are correct. It was south.
Great video. Doing the s.c.a.r. In may. 🍻
Have fun!
Great video! I’ve done a couple of adventures trails in Wyoming, but would love to explore the American SE. What dates, what time of year did you run the SC Adventure Trail. Thanks
In the spring
That bridge is only 6 miles from where I live,it is a beautiful place.
Beautiful area!
Thanks for sharing. Like others I appreciate the videos in the southeast. I live in south Mississippi and not much outside of the region is currently a feasible option.
Thank you.
nice mixture of terrain
Thanks for watching! It was a little bit of everything. - Kelly

@@ALongLongWaytoGO thank you. Thank you very much.
By the way, what brand is the chair you were rocking in at the campsite?
amzn.to/3gHcAWd
Did you ever do episodes on the rest of the SCAR?
Unless they have added more, we completed the SCAR. This was the only video we had done.
Will have to watch again but don’t recall anything on Hwy 11 and lake jocassee, east toward table rock and Ceasers head.
It may have been a day we did not video as much.
How do I find route maps? I live less than 2 miles from Poinsett Bridge, and recognize some of this..
Look up South Carolina Adventure Route.
Wish I had known you were in the area. I don't live far off of Hwy 11. Been to the Old Poinsette Bridge many times. Did you go up by Gorges and Lake Jocassee? Enjoy your content.
We did not.
Poinsett Bridge is about 10 minutes from my house!!!
Cool place!
@@CoddiwompleOverland I love living in this area!
Definitely a nice area to live.
It would be awesome if you told names of all the roads you turn off onto. Very interested. Great job
Thanks for the input we will keep that in mind.
What kind of comms do you use?
We normally use GMRS but have HAM capability
What gps system do you use for the gpx file off the Wix site. Thanks in advance I am just getting into overlanding and not sure which route to go.
I am not sure what the wix site is. We use Gaia for our gpx files
Ok thank you. Keep ip the videos I have enjoyed them stay safe.
Thanks!
Really good to see Allen and Nancy back in the video's I was wondering about them
Yes, it was great to have them along.
I wouldn't know how to react not seeing your wiper blades in your videos! Great job,those dirt were really well kept. Looking forward to meeting you at the Moore Expo this year.
See you there.
my wife got a 2018 jeep renegade trailhawk, she got it just over a week ago, a little over 52,000 miles, we've been looking at a tiny camper to pull with it,, i know you guys have a roof top tent, but,, if we met up with you,, would our trailer be a hindrance ?? we don't want to tent camp if possible
We will just find a trail that can be traveled with your camper.
@@CoddiwompleOverland it's called the runaway rouser, made for small suv's and jeeps, but,, thank-you by the way :)
Are the campsites you stayed at free or do you have to reserve them in advanced?
Some were free some we had to pay for. We did reserve the one by the lake.
Great video. Did you re-gear for the 37’s or is it stock? How does it do on the highway as far as 8th gear? Thanks
Thanks. We haven't regarded yet but we are going to. Right now we never see 8th gear

Any recommendations for trailheads at FMNF? Just got a new truck and wanted to drive something close before headed out to Horse Pasture. Thanks!

My biggest advice is to be careful in the mud. It can be an inch deep, or a foot, and it all looks the same. I have been stuck more in FMNF than any other place.
.
Great video! What camera do you use?
We use a mixture, Cannon d90, Gopro's 7, 9 &10, Samsung S21 Ultra and DJI Mavic air 2s
damn you were right in my backyard!
Nice back yard.
you are allowed to dispersal camp in the Francis Marion, you just need a permit.
They told us no RV, car, or Van. They said if your in or on your vehicle you cannot disperse camp. Dispersed camping is for tents that are able to be packed into the woods so many feet from the road. I can't remember how far he (the ranger said). Cause we seen some great spots.
