Carrying Supplies For Runners

- So every year we get asked to help take supplies up and run the Aid Station for the Moab Trails Marathon. This year it was a marathon accompanied by a 10k also. The boxes we usually use to store all the supplies on the trailer have seen better days, so we decided to make a new one. Then while I was gone taking Ol Blue up to Grand Junction we got a call for a Ford Ranger that had lost its wheel on Kane Creek Road, so I sent Shawn And Mike to get that and get it back to the shop. Then Saturday came for the race and Chris and I headed up Cliffhanger Trail early in the morning to get all set up. The trip up had a slight issue with the pintle hitch coming undone, but other than that things went smooth. The day went well and at the end there were two runners that didn't feel they could make it down on their own, so we offered to give them a ride. We got them back down to the start line and dropped off the extra supplies and we shall be back next year. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Thank you Team Trail Mater for supporting local initiatives... hauling supplies in and then the garbage out afterwards.. Great land stewardship 🙂 Great job Shawn and Mike 🙂 Safety chains to the rescue... doing what they are designed to do 🙂 "The runners are on the trail"... classic Dad joke Mike 😂🤣😂
Mike's dad joke breaking Rory was fantastic
The guy on the dirt bike was so nice, he must be a fan of the channel. Great work helping those marathon runners!
Talk about helping the image of the offroad community, nothing beats this imo
A big shout out to you,Rory, for the PSA on protecting and preserving the land. My wife and I were in that area last Sept. beautiful doesn’t begin to describe it! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
In my area, people have cut down trees to widen roads, and just drop trash and beer bottles for shooting practice on the roads and the residents have to clean the trash, the glass is in the sand and much harder to clean. People don't respect wildlife, the outdoors.
Thank you, Rory.
As much as you guys poke fun of runners, it's great to see you support everyone who responsibly uses and enjoys the trails in your area. I know the race organizers and runners are highly appreciative of you setting up that aid station year after year. It's a logistics nightmare that they don't have to worry about due to your help.
Good morning Rory I agree with you that people need to respect the trails so they stay open to the public.
When you are on a trail it isn't about getting in a hurry it is about relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
8.34 lbs per gallon adds up fast! Great to see you supporting your community! You guys are awesome! 👍🏽
859 lbs just in water. The wood and water alone is over 1000 lbs.
Biden did not just kill our oil on federal lands, he killed mining them too, $18 for a hamburger? I was gonna start fishing again then I seen how much sinkers and everything else made out lead costs now! yep, it costs my brother $38 for get two burgers, 2 fry's and 2 sodas for him and his son the other day! they said food was gonna get expensive because farmers have to pay so much for fuel but it was worse than I thought it would get!!!
Plus when in a previous video you asked about raw footage which was pretty cool . I think a unique video would be having one under the chassis showing the drive shaft operate in front and or rear digs. My.02 cent worth & keep the little outtakes at the end those always crack me up. Especially with the runners bit. I found that funny.
😆 😆 mike cracked me up there at the end! " the runners are on the trail "… 😂
And that's why we connect safety chains. Love what your doing.
It’s un describable the feeling when you give and help to others. Keep up the good work to y’all guys! 👍🏼
You are correct when you said it is "absolutely beautiful out here". I love the scenery and the area. I hope to see it in person someday.
Be respectful ...."It's our land to use, BUT that doesn't mean its our land to destroy" one of my new favorite quotes. I'm always amazed at how capable that rig is, looks a bit worn but is an absolute beast.
Appreciate that your channel is a good steward of the land!
This is exactly why I love watching your channel you all stand up for the lands and keeping things from being destroyed. It truly is beautiful country out there.
Thanks for being a good ambassador for the 4x4 community. I really like that you take the time to emphasize the importance of being a good steward of taking care of the trails and environment. I don't want to see the trails being closed. The growth of off-roading has been insane, Moab was busy in the 90's but it is nothing compared to today.
Thanks Rory and gang for supporting these runners and that trail if you want to call it that really gave Mater and the trailer a workout! It didn't help that the trailer broke loose, but all worked out and nice to see Chris out on the trail again. Nice recovery by Mike and Shawn!
Always great to see your videos, Rory … no matter what you’re doing. And yes, you have a very beautiful area there … but it’s been my experience it doesn’t matter how beautiful an area is there’s bound to be people who don’t appreciate it. We don’t have a Bureau of Land Management here where I live … it’s all public land for the most part … and it just rankles the heck out of me to see how little some folks appreciate just what we have here. When I see you and Shawn and Mike make a point of stopping to pick up garbage on the trails … and cleaning up every little bit of debris from a wrecked vehicle, etc, etc … even though I’m over three thousand miles away from you, I really appreciate it … and I’m sure there are lots of locals in your area do too. Stay safe out there.
Rory is 100% correct, don't trash public lands, stay on trail.
Note that he also packed out the trash 🗑. The pack it in then pack it out.
"Responsibility"... thanks again for putting that out there, Rory!
800lbs in just water. Still the best offroad recovery trailer anywhere!
Thanks everyone for doing this work!
Great job supporting other types of enthusiasts 👍
Too bad that other enthusiasts wanna shut down offroading
I have worked aid stations here in Virginia for the Cloud Splitter 100. That's something I really enjoy, meeting people from all over the world. Some of the nicest and most appreciative people you'll ever meet.
Way to go, Rory! Good on you for helping and being a little oasis in the desert for those adventure seekers. Thank you also for the kind words about taking care of our precious resources while at the same time enjoying all that they have to offer. Shout out to the runner from our beloved Bayou State for representing us in his efforts! 👍
The shot at 12:02 is a magic moment of spell casting. Unimaginable splendor, all for us. What a gift, we are so very fortunate. Be well.
...not our land to destroy. Damn right. Always down for a good Rory Rant!
Quite amazing how Mater goes over those rocks n ledges all whilst towing stuff!!!!!
All of the good works that you guys at Team Trial Mater do for the people is amazing and I hope they appreciate it!
My goodness that is such pretty pretty countryside! Used to live there. Feels like home seeing it. Moab is hands down the most beautiful area of all the red rock country. I've been around a lot of it, and Moab beats everywhere else hands down.
That is some heccin rough terrain to be running! My shins are feeling the old shin splints and ankles feeling the twists and sprains just looking at it in the context of running. But hey, if youre going to suffer while running, it might as well be in some of the most picturesque surroundings God made.
Hilarious when the trailer decided to go into cartoon mode. Reminds me of way back in the day there in Moab when a trailer did that on Spanish Valley Road, only the driver didnt have a safety chain and his trailer passed him then parked itself in some lady's living room.
Trail Mater Crew, funny as ever. I love your banter and laughs. Thank you so much for the bright spots in life.
All the other channels in the area are just doing their thing, for themselves.
Trail Mater does things FOR people. FOR their community, FOR their environment.
You're all awesome people.
It's great that you all do what you can to help,even when it's for someone crazy enough to Run 20 miles in a desert On Purpose.I'm with Rory on the ,"I don't run unless..something is about to Explode,and I want away from it,or something important is on Fire and I can stop it"
"So....Whatcha wanna do for fun today?" "I dunno.....umm....well....how about we go run over rough terrain until we collapse and puke from exhaustion?" "Fantastic idea! Let's go."
Good job guys!! I see a solid front axle swap in that Toyota's future 😀 And thanks for all of the volunteer work team Trail mater does. You guys make a real difference
Great contribution Rory and crew to support this run. Rough terrain...you all got it done.
well done!. quote of the day : trying to hold it where the sun's not shining" 15:27 😆
LOVE THIS!!! Thank you for your example of responsible stewardship of the off road community in Moab. We hope to continue to enjoy our off road adventures well into the future and that can only happen with responsible off roading. Love your work.
Mike made Rory's brain hurt at the end there lol
12:42 - 13:35 love it! I feel the same way. Btw, I’m one of the human powered trail users and always look for ways to be welcoming and friendly toward all trail users regardless of their chosen way to experience this beautiful world. Thank you to the trail mater crew for being so awesome!
Great job Rory et al, So nice of you to help out. I so agree with you we all need to respect the outdoors and be caretakers. Many folks would never be able to see this beautiful wild country without the aid of a off road vehicle. BLM needs to stand down from closures and we need to step up as care takers.
That new coffin is screaming for a cool paint job. Thanks for advocating for people to be responsible 4 wheelers. It is obvious that you love where you live and want people to visit responsibly.
thank goodness for saftey chain😊. thanks for all you do, we appreciate all you guys .
Taking supplies out is always a great video to watch! 👍
Thanks for a great video. Your wrecker vehicle is just a climbing and descending beast, enjoy seeing the way it handles the trails. Not to mention your skill and ability to pick the best line up the trail while telling us about the route you are on. It's like your actions are committed to "muscle memory". Carry On Sir!
Geez man, it's already been a year since finding this channel.
Twas a spectacular speech about being responsible! On public lands! So others can enjoy them too!👍👏🤗
HEY! Good morning Rory , Mike and Shawn! Thumbs UP!
Thanks for another great video, and another sensible PSA on responsible recreation 🤙
Closure isn't management, but abuse isn't responsible use.
You guys rock 🤘
I would be horrible at that run. I would stop running, and start sightseeing.
Great video. Help is always available when Rory and crew are around.
Thanks Trail Mater And Team for All You Guys Do!!! I wish everyone that wheels and does any type of social media would speak about the land and trails the way you and Matt’s Off Road does!!! Some people and I think it’s a lot to do with the younger generation especially that don’t live in that area abuse it! Just here in NC 10-15 years ago we could ride 4-wheelers and go off-road in our Jeeps and Trucks and just ride all day but TREAD LITELY And Nobody Said A Word, we’d stop and ask if it’s ok to come through and show respect! But now the last 10 years we can barely leave the yard or our own land because people tore up fences and trees and fields and made Giant Mud Holes and the farmer couldn’t get out to the crops and tend to their land so now it’s all fenced up and No Trespassing Signs Everywhere And I Don’t Blame Them One Bit! But that’s all it takes is one person to do the wrong things and others follow them and most of them don’t even live here so now it’s all pretty much GONE!!! So People Please Listen To Rory And These Other People Who Know The Outcome Of Abusing The Land And Trails! They Get Taken Away! And there are so many of us that Dream To Come Out There To Moab And Sand Hollow To Wheel One Day!!! Have Fun But Show Respect!!! Or the Fun Will Be Gone Forever!!!
I loved the time-lapse with regular speed dialog. 😂 Great land stewardship.
Thumbs up, great adventure, thanks for bringing us along
Interesting , Thank You. Another fine rescue , building project , and public service
I guess they beat the brakes off that Ranger...
Thank you for doing your part I wish everybody would
Thank you for supporting the runner
Pintle problem, possible panic, saved by the safety chains, Rory relaxed, runners relieved. Mike delivers dead pan dad joke, subscribers satisfied. Well done dudes.
I'll let myself out.
There’s something about screwing wood together with battery impacts that brings me back to when we were kids. Except we used a lot of reused nails and scrap lumber to build our tree houses/forts
My wife and friends love that race, and yeah, it's *way* difficult. Glad you can help out at the hardest parts.
Note to self .
In the eventuality of the apocalypse for the best chance of survival….
find Rory and The Trail Mater crew !
😎
It would be great to see Chris in more of the videos but I understand being shy. Most of us would welcome seeing more content with you in it.
IMpressed with how quick and well you put the coffin together.
I was glad that Mike and Shawn did not to go too far into Kane Creek. It gives me the colly wobbles seeing drive so close to an unstable edge with hundreds of feet drop-off if things go pear shaped. Plus we know that it happens now, after seeing the TRX video from earlier this week. How on earth that man and his dog survived that fall, is one huge mystery.
Its nice to see runners waiting for rory supplies and give them a ride out and companion
I'm impressed you can afford lumber! Love you help out in the off road community too.
I grew up 4x4ing in the northeast of our great country. Mostly fields and woods with lots of mud. We didn't have much of a budget but had a lot of fun. You guys are mostly in dry rocky places with sandy soil. So different from what I knew, cool!
From Lloyd Downunder;; I can't believe it's that running time of the year again , time fly's when yu having FUN !!! Watching Trail Mater or !!! The SHIKES SHOW (Mike n Shawn Combined) !!! a very well built coffin guys & an Xcellent provision service fellas, Great Show ,, Thanks.👍💪🏁🏁🏁
Only a little bit of off road rescue in this one, but I enjoyed the whole thing. It's great how you support the local community. I like the stuff that you put on your channel. Keep it coming.
Good on y`all for keeping the trail clean. We must save the planet we`er leaving to Keith Richards.
Very humanitarian of you Rory!
"Just because its ours to use doesn't mean its ours to ruin" I couldn't agree more.👊
Good to see good people doing good deeds.
Always a pleasure thanks for sharing 😀👍
Great work & Support... Awesome new build + the top doubles for built in tables, very cool..
Great show, so I can get a ride in the truck if it sign up to run, ha, ha. just kidding. Hope all are ok.
I know how it is running, what a cool place to do a long run, and see you guys.
Thanks for that aid station way up there.
Keep up the great job everyone.
What a office you work in.
I came Through Moab this day with my kid. he was hoping to meet a "real TH-camr" that day. He was happy to see the buggy and the shop so he was happy! So Yea my son calls you a "real TH-camr"!!! congratulations!
That is a wonderful thing you did ! Thanks for sharing !
As only TrailMater could.
Thanks for sharing guy's
Good Comeback Mike🤣
Runners are on the Trail😂🤣
Really nice of you to help them 👍👍
At the end Rory had the look of second guessing his decision of hiring Mike.
You guys have the best crew you guys work well together.
Noticed the 12 pk of PBR. Enjoy, y’all deserve it. Cheers 🍻
Very cool! Thank you from an old distance runner.
Good on ya for doing this for people who are running for no good reason.
absoletely enjoy all of your videos
Excellent thanks for your support
The runner joke at the end was a great one
Support your community and have fun with it.
My kind of people. Hands down, the best channel on the net.

Definitions of beautiful are so vastly different. To me green and trees is beautiful.
An absolutely outstanding video!! Bravo 👍 RORY Bravo 👍
You all rock . Blessings
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
That's right leave no trace
Good on you. Your two cohorts seemed to make it back from a job even without adult supervision 😜❤️
Good job Trail Mater crew for taking water and supplies for the runners in the marathon!
Rory you are a seriously good dude. Kudos man.
