Matt, I truly thank you for the time and effort you put into your channel. It takes us viewers to places that we may never get to experience. Again thank you and ready for part 3.
Thanks so much for that!!
A tip : watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching a lot of movies recently.
@Valentino Austin yea, been using flixzone} for years myself =)
@Valentino Austin Definitely, have been watching on Flixzone} for years myself =)
@Valentino Austin yup, have been watching on Flixzone} for since november myself :)
Absolutely crazy that trailer made it up! Talk about commitment
You guys run more Colorado trails than people in Colorado. Love it !! ❤😂
Rain and snow are nothing to dread it's part of overlanding and definitely part of Colorado.
Mark Carpenter yep. Typical mountain weather.
Wow, good job with the trailer, Matt! Headed out there soon, but I think I'll leave the camper somewhere else! Great videos, thanks for sharing.
Excellent video. Pearl Pass was still closed when we were up there for a week long overlanding trip a couple of months ago. Wish I had that many friends that were into overlanding to travel with me. Generally it is just me and my son and he is not old enough to help guide my tire placement up and down bigger obstacles. Mineral Creek had a couple of off camber pucker moments without a spotter. Glad to see the ZR2 representing!!! Excellent content and videos! You have a new subscriber.
ZR2Overlander thanks man!!! You’re welcome to wheel with us any time!! Keep taking your son. He’ll be old enough to help before you know it.
I'm in the same boat. My friends don't have 4x4 vehicles. We have a 2019 KL Jeep Cherokee trailhawk. Would we be able to do this entire trip in it? Its still stock height although I'm planning on installing a 2" lift and a little larger tires in the future. New sub here. Thanks for sharing
Grey Wolf67 I’ve never driven a trail hawk but I know they are capable. I would think you would drag a lot since it wouldn’t have the ground clearance of the 4Runners. But there’s only one way to know for sure. Lol. I say go for it.
I've watched this over and over again in anticipation of my overland trip in a week, thank you for the hard work you put into this awesome video
Thank you so much!! I miss Colorado!!
Incredible, simply incredible. Thanks for taking us along!
Bob Jackson thanks so much!!!
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures You're very welcome. I'm new to overlanding. Did a bit in Breckenridge Colorado a couple weekends ago. My goal is to mod a few things on the ol rig for camping and do a weekend thing. Y'all are doin' it right. Thanks for the videos. I'm a new sub, and LOVING the videos.
Bob Jackson that’s awesome. Just do it with what you got and figure out what you need along the way. Thanks for the encouragement.
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Thank you! :)
Your videos are extremely well done! It’s making me look forward to my next adventure! Keep it up. 😎
Awesome! Thank you!
Nice job. I enjoy seeing you tackle these trails with the trailer.
JG Taylor thanks. It definitely keeps it interesting. 😂
Shhhh. The Secret Stash should remain a secret. Figaliscious forever!!!!
C Brantley 😂😂😂
What a truly amazing way to see the backcountry
We love it! It's gorgeous.
That was an awesome video. Can’t wait for #3.
Dwain Diffey thanks!!!
Great job on the video. You can tell you really put a lot of time and effort into putting something out there that is quality. Glad you enjoyed your trip.
Thanks Brofessor! I appreciate it!! Always trying to do better.
I really love seeing all the different types of rigs! Will definitely need to check these trails out next time down there. Thanks!
Nothing feels more free than exploring the American West in a Japanese truck 😂
😂
Looked amazing! Taylor's pass especially. Enjoyed seeing each rig go through that one step technical section. I can't help but wonder if Jon will ever get that JL stuck! Lol
I’ll have to figure out tougher stuff for John to do. 😂😂
Excited to see a ZR2 overlanding. Don’t see near enough of them!
I totally agree
Looks amazing!
Thanks!!!
Well made videos. Great work as always 👏 👍
Thank you so much!!!
Amazing drone shots!!!! Wowowow
I love the San Juan's. Great 4-wheeling.
I do too! Thanks!!
Crested butte nor aspen are in or really even near the San juans
Good stuff man! Looking forward to pt 3!
JeepinOutfitters thanks!!
Nice video!! Thanks!!
Thanks!!
Great vid, keep up the good work.
Thanks!!! Will do our best!
I enjoy watching your video. I have been on most of those roads above Crested Butte. The Taylor Pass Road was closed when I was there. I also got to camp in O Be Joyful campground for three nights.
Thanks. It’s an amazing place!!
Great channel! Can’t imagine going thru that trail with stagecoaches. Respect
thanks!!!
Incredible... Subbed! Thank you for your amazing videos!
Thanks and welcome
Another great video 🤙🏽
jon shearer thanks!!
Great video !
Thanks Bro!
Great video! I broke a tie-rod on Taylor Pass last summer, that was no fun!
Ouch!! Yeah that's not a fun thing to break!
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Definitely not! Gotta bring a spare lol
Great videos! Hope your channel gets way more views in the future for the quality videos you do.
Thanks!! It's doing well!! I appreciate the support!
Lived there in the mid 80's.
Rode dirtbikes over pearl.
I remember being two ways to ashcroft from the pass, one through the trees and one over the rocks on the side.
They (crested butte'rs)would ride mountain bikes over to aspen and we would dirtbike over there. Lol things you do chasing women.
😂😂 the mountain bikers are crazy!!!
Excellent !! I'm in KC, would love to meet up sometime.
Heck yeah. Would love to!!
Secret stash salads very good to
Everything at secret stash is very good!!
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures I agree
Yeah I'm in Colorado I'll go anytime I haven't been on Pearl or Taylor or Black Bear yet , I hate to go without friends if there is a breakdown
The first time we did Pearl, Black Bear, and Schofield we were alone.
Great video! Any idea how much lift/tires was on the Tacoma?
3” and 33s I think. Thanks!!
Soloed Taylor past September 2020 IN a TJ with my Wife. Would not recommend running that trail solo. Was fairly uncomfortable about being solo the whole trail. The Trail also takes a LONG TIME to complete.
Another great video, thanks again! We are spending a week in the San Juan’s the 3rd week of September, we can’t wait! I’m in S/W Missouri, Reeds Spring area, are you guys located in Arkansas?
We are in central Arkansas. I'm jealous!! I want to go back so bad!!
Great adventure so far. How often did you do a base camp for multiple nights.
It just depends on how many trails are in the area. For this trip we base camped for 2 nights near Crested Butte and then 4 nights near Ouray.
Those shelf roads...think they are passable in a Suburban?
What's the lift and tire size on the 4Runner??
Both have 3" lifts and 33" tires
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Thanks for replying! I just bought a 2020 TRD Off Road and (of course) I am modifying! I like your vids!
e a that will be awesome!!
Love this video! What time of year did yall try the trail?
Thanks. Late July.
What size tires is the ZR2 running?
Dan VanHoose 33s
Question: did you start Taylor Pass from Crested Butte or Aspen? We'll be staying in Crested Butte and want to go to Aspen. Also, what is your preferred offroad trail app? Thank you.
You mean Pearl Pass? That's the one that connects the two. We started on the Aspen side. Gaia GPS is my go to navigation app.
Would my 2500 dodge make it through there? Its a big truck with a long bed
I made it through with a trailer so I don’t see why not.
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures well this truck is and old 97, you know they made them like a tank. Big and unstable lol. I saw a few narrow trails ya'll were on so I wasn't sure, but I also seen there were 2 full size trucks with you too. You know back in the day if they said the truck bed was 8' then it was 8'. I live in Mussrie and trying to get the truck done by next year so I can go do trail riding. Trying to find people that go around here is hard.
What editing software did you use to show your google mine track 19:02
It’s an app called Relive
I have got to hook up with you guys soon for an adventure.
Come on!
This is amazing! I'm planning for a similar trip within the next 3-5 years (coming all the way from NC), so this is awesome to watch. Just curious, do you happen to know the specs on that 5th Gen 4Runner? How much is it lifted, what tire size, etc? Nice to have a measuring stick to make sure I'm prepared. Thanks!
Also, do you think a locker is absolutely mandatory for sections of this trail? I have an SR5 5th gen with no rear locker. Looks like it would certainly be beneficial for some of that more technical stuff, but did you find most of your rigs ended up locking it, or going through open? Thanks!
Thanks!! You'll love it!!! Both 5th Gen 4Rs have 3" Lifts and 33" tires. They did very good on the trip. The locker question is tough. If it's dry then you won't need one. Your rig will do fine. If it's wet that one section on Pearl Pass will be more of a challenge. We did have a couple Jeeps that didn't have lockers and they made it up but had to bump it pretty good.
Ozark Overland Adventures Thanks for the info! Crazy to me that you don’t have more followers, the content is amazing and it’s awesome that you’re so responsive on here!
@@greyhounds72 Thanks for that!. It's pretty new channel and growing fast.
13:45 bahaha
Fuck yea
Will the caps be for sale again?
Caps?
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures caps aka baseball hats.
I'm sorry, man, but the selfie stick out the window is not working in your favor. The camera could also be an issue. The problem is that the camera is all over the place and makes the video unwatchable for me, while you are trying to film the conquering of your obstacles. If you mount the Gopro to the pillar, or the door, it will track, keeping the scenery and your obstacles in focus without struggling with stabilization. I see that you are using high quality cameras for your up close and personal portions, and the images are great, there. I realize that it is possible that you are just hanging a good camera out the window as opposed to an action camera. Anyway, thanks for sharing. I will continue to look at your upcoming videos.
Brawl Dawg yeah still working on that. There’s no selfie stick. Lol. It’s a mix of Go Pro Hero 8 Black and IPhone 11 Pro Max which both have good image stabilization. In Part 1 I grabbed my GoPro Hero 5 Black instead of the 8 and that footage was horrible.
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Copy. There's a lot to content creation, to be certain. I was just trying to offer my perception as constructive criticism. Not trying to be a dick. Keep up the good work.
Brawl Dawg not taken as a Dick at all. I appreciate it.
