- After leaving Padre Island National Seashore we head over to another Texas landmark - Big Bend National Park. Here we begin our next overlanding adventure as we take on the two most difficult routes in the park (maybe the two most difficult public routes in Texas) Black Gap Road and Old Ore Road. This will be the first time we take the Patriot Campers X3 trailer off-road and onto some technical 4x4 terrain. The scenery is awesome. Check it out and see how the X3 handles some good off-road obstacles! As always, this video was shot and produced for viewing in HDR for those who have HDR compatible devices.

Nice. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Hello from Wisconsin! We are heading to Big Bend National Park for a Bronco event in December. These are the two planned trail rides. No, we wont be towing the trailer on the trail. Staying at Chisos Basin Campground as a base camp. After that we will be heading to spend January and February in Arizona and southern California.
Hey Dave! Sorry I took so long to get back to you. Big Bend is a beautiful place and there are some great views from Chisos Basin. Great news you will in the AZ and SoCal in January and February. Hope we can connect when you head out!!! Stay in touch!
@@adventurebeyond60 Will do! Also looking for easy off road trails in southern California. Perhaps we could camp and you could show us a few. What is your email address?
love it ...just retired and looks it's the way to go
We retired last year. It’s a great way to go!
Fantastic video! I'd be considering taking my little truck down to Big bend and I recently purchased an off-road trailer. This is a fantastic sneak peek into what I should expect if I decide to make the Trek!
Glad it was helpful! Definitely do-able with an offroad trailer. Hope you give it a go!
@@adventurebeyond60 How were you able to reserve that site with a trailer? I've been wanting to camp at some of those more remote sites, but they clearly say "no trailer" on the website for each one, Glen Springs 1 in particular. Do they check or allow it if you're capable?
Thank you , Beautiful video.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching John!
Great video, thank you for Al the factual information. Chelsea and Mike
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
Ted, it was a pleasure meeting you this morning. Thanks for taking the time to talk about your trailer and share some quick stories. I just subbed to the channel and look forward to watching the vids! Stay safe! Gary
Gary, great meeting you as well. Thanks for watching and subscribing to the channel! Sorry I didn't have any stickers for you. If you would like me to send you a couple stickers, send an e-mail with your mailing address to ted@adventurebeyond60.com.
Any other Texas destinations planned ? I hope you enjoyed Corpus Christi and the beaches .
Had a great time in Corpus Christi and out on the beaches. No overloading trips planned for Texas planned for this year...so far.
Great video!!
Thanks!
Just discovered the channel, when I saw you I saw my future self, the beard is already the same size, not full white tho, yet, lol. Are you planning on upgrading your rear suspension? It looks like the trailer weight is taking a tow in the back shocks, specially if you have your fuel cans full it will add even more weight. I wish I could buy one Patriot camper, but it's impossible living in Brazil.
I'm glad you are not thinking about slowing down when the beard gets white! It just means you have more stories to tell lol. The rear suspension is already upgraded. I just didn't have the rear airbags inflated as much as they should have been. On the trip I just completed this week I ran them at the highest pressure setting and it appears to be an improvement. The video from this last week will be out in a few weeks. Look for the Arizona BDR Segment 2 video. It should be S2 E7. You might want to check out "S2E2: 2015 Toyota 4Runner Rig Walk Around" where is go into a lot of detail about how the modifications to the rig. Thanks for watching!
Excellent! How did you do the red line on the map? Excellent!
I apologize I thought I responded to your question. The animated red lines on the maps are done using Apple Motion. Once you get the line drawn you can keyframe the beginning and the end and when played back it animates the drawing of the line.
@@adventurebeyond60 super many thanks. Excellent vid!
What phone service do y’all have and did it work near black gap?
I’m from Corpus but had to get AT&T when I started working in West Texas. I’m planning to make this trip with my 2019 Tundra SR5 it’s only 190 miles away from Odessa where I work.
We have AT&T but to the best of our recollection there was virtually no service in the Park. We carry StarLink with us which works great in desert areas. Having Big Bend in your backyard is really nice. We didn't have time to check out Big Bend State Park, but it looks awesome as well and I hope we get back there sometime.
If you want to do some real off-roading, leave the park lol
Thanks I’ll keep that in mind….
