Regina cheat a little…. Grab the bottom of the wheel palm down. If you want the trailer to go left take your hand left Right take your hand right. Small inputs and number one…..nothing fast should ever happen in the cab. Slow is smooth and take your time!!!! Good luck!
Another awesome video! I love that Regena is more present on the videos and sharing her input. And I love that she makes dessert while camping, something I’ve been a little apprehensive about.
Hey Brad and Regina, been watching your channel for over a year now, as a medical student, sometimes studying gets a-lot, and your content gives me a peace of mind away from stress. Keep it up, another great video!
I know this is a year later , and the misses should be backing well by now , however that being said , a little trick I learned when backing short trailers , put the transfer case in low , let the vehicle idle , keep the foot off the throttle as much as possible , computer controlled engines wont stall as easily as the old carb points engines , this allows the driver to keep up with the trailer , use the mirrors as much as possible , and keep all steering inputs small . Enjoy your channel , thank you for letting us tag along
Hi Brad and Regina, Loved the collaboration between TrailRecon and Ozark Overland Adventure. Two amazing channels. Perfect trail, water xings, dirt, gravel, rocks and some mud and nice scenery. Love it! Awesome episode. Thank you 😊
I grew up about an hour away from Medano and have really been itching to take the trip over the mountains to the Dunes rather than going around like we always did in my childhood. Beautiful.
A perfect episode that had it all, even sand dunes. Can't go wrong with beautiful Colorado. The cooking segments are great and I really appreciate this addition to the videos. Most recipes are new to me so very interesting.
2 highlights for me: Regina’s growing comfort with backing the trailer, and Medano pass backwards. Being from Texas, my favorite route across southern Colorado is from the east over Medano pass to the dunes, then to Creede and up the Rio Grande to its source via 520 over Stony pass to Silverton, often taking the side trip to Kite Lake.
Next year we are doing a road trip all the way from Central Mexico to Moab! On the way there we are visiting Great sand dunes National Park and doing Medano Pass!!!
Regina, it looks like you already love your Blackstone grill....it won't be long now until you will want a large one for home. Its awesome for when all my kids are home at once, and I can make an entire breakfast for everyone and have it all finished at the same same time. Keep practicing backing up the trailer. Like anything new, it takes a lot of practice. Don't get discouraged. After you become a pro, just think of the funny stories you will be able to tell. Great video guys!!
A tip when reversing with a trailer. When you in a straight line position with jeep , put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel. Turn then the steering wheel from the bottom grip in the direction you wish the trailer must go 😉
Thanks for the awesome video. I am a San Luis Valley native, but I've been living overseas for over 3 decades now. Seeing your video of those places I know so well give me a huge does of nostalgia. Glad you made your way out that direction to enjoy those amazing places.
Beautiful territories, nice views at camp, and I swear I could almost smell that food cooking! Regina, it looks like you are slowly getting the hang of backing up a trailer. It can be a little like cat herding, I agree. You might try practicing with an empty parking lot and some big, empty cardboard boxes. Once you can get the trailer moving in a straight line, try adding some boxes in a pattern for obstacle avoidance. I trained my daughter this way, in little baby steps, now she can back a trailer up like nobody's business! Good luck, and keep at it. You got this! 👍
Delightful travelogue. Glad you got to do Medano and the Wet Mountains. Those trails were the ones that convinced me an overland rig was what I needed. And only now do I discover that you know the "you need to talk to these folks about tires" Ozark Overland crew. Ha!
I know that highway well, as well a Medano Pass. I've always done it east to west so sometime I want to go west to east. OH BOY!!!! Blondies!!! They are yummy. More ideas for trail/roadtrip meals... Shrimp quesadillas... Thank to both of you for this video. Until next time... Travel safe.
Love the baking Bundt pan with the muffin insert and all you do with it. I showed your clip to my wife and her mouth was watering. Hopefully we can find it online. Oh yah, amazing route in southern Colorado
Wow, reminds me of my younger days, 4 wheelin all over; really miss it; and use to eat bison all the time back in the 70’s; loved it and the elk, I like both equally; thanks for the memories 😎😎😎😎👌👌👍👍🤩🤩
Great video. I've been following you and Matt for about 2 years now and it's good to see you together. And don't worry Regena, it take practice backing up a trailer but you'll get the hang of it. And short trailers are much harder to back up.
Wow that dinner of elk and bison in that camping spot made me so jealous. Everything about that looks amazing, glad you enjoyed Colorado again. Come back soon!
Regina don't feel bad about backing up a short trailer with a single axle. They are very tricky to keep straight and react to the smallest steering inputs. 👍😀
Great video! I enjoyed seeing Regina's confidence build from last video to this with backing up the trailer (you got this girlie :) ) and the FOOD- come on! Looks so incredible ! Makes me angry hungry LOL
Brad, you should start with the trailer backing by placing your control hand on the bottom of the steering wheel and just move your hand the way you want the trailer to go
Love your videos! A good tip that I used to help me learn to reverse trailers was to put one hand at the 6:00 position on the steering. If I want the rear to go right, then I steer right. Same for left, of course.
Matt and Cara are good people...hopefully you will get to wheel with them in the Ozarks soon. Matt has some amazing campsites and water crossing... not to mention some cool wheeling buddies ;)
We did the Medano Pass trail as a group coming home to California in 2012 from a two week Colorado trip. On our ADV motorcycles. Seeing that really long creek crossing and all of that sand brought back memories, not exactly good ones! I believe the trail was actually closed and gated for a number of years following a fire and winter erosion damage. Good to see its open and passable again.
Your friends cooking option is genius Minimalistic next to the black stone and so easy to clean and perfect size for the occasions you share with a slightly larger group. I’m adding another channel to follow. Marco does not have competition with Regina. They are both great cooks and more specific camping cooks INFLUENCERS. 😂 😂 1 male 1 female to show it can be done across the board. 😂
Enjoying the video on a nice Sunday morning. 6 day work week this week, so nice to kick back and enjoy.. Family and I have done Medano several times from west to east and east west. Camped and hiked the trails in the area. The hike to Medano Lake was not very difficult and very rewarding once you reached the lake.
@@TrailRecon For sure! Beautiful area and definitely a lot to do. The Sand Dunes are really cool in the spring as the snow melt has the river flowing pretty good in front of the dunes.
Always look forward to your videos. So well edited, narrated, and fun. Brad, you are the Vin Scully of off road/overlanding videos! Enjoying watching Regena use that Blackstone. We just ordered one. Safe travels and all the best.
We have a 22" Blackstone we use at home and take camping. It has opened up so many new meal opportunities we never had before and the cleanup us so easy! Check out Blackstone's channel and the Waltwins channel for great ideas and recipes. Our favoirtes so far are smash burgers and bacon-fried corn.
I was the guy from Arkansas who spotted Matt and talked to y’all on the trail before you camped. It was my first time doing Medano Pass also. I ran it from east to west (opposite y’all) and it was outstanding in the morning coming down and seeing the Sandunes rising out of the rocks as you come down the pass. Great video and now im following your channel too. :)
One of the tips I have been shown for backing up the trailer is to grab the bottom of the steering wheel and turn it the way you want the trailer to go. It works well if you don't need to do a lot of fast or sharp turns while backing.
Was looking forward to another instalment of this awesome trip, definitely not disappointed... You guys do such a great job of filming your adventures. 🚙👍🇦🇺
OMG Brad you need to come to Louisiana so I can make you some coffee! Looks like an amazing adventure. I love living vicariously through your adventures.
Hey...hi again. Jim aka Captain Kirk here. Wow, another Grand Slam incredible tale. So, so enjoyable. Wonderful video work too. Just by chance I went back to catch some other videos of yours. I watched the terrific How you shoot, edit and build your videos. So much great feel for your shots and how you weave your story. Super Co ngrats. In my fun, fun corp gig of 40 yearsI managed to pick up some video skills too. All in studio however!!! Envy you and Regina...press on young man! Please keep turning out your great stories. Kirk Out
Brad, it is on our bucket list to make it out west to the beautiful Rockies one day. The scenery and abundance of trails to explore is beyond incredible. You cover the best of the best and we appreciate your channel so much. Maybe one day we’ll cross paths. Thank you for all the content you push out for all of us nature lovers.
Hey Regena, I’ve been told by people more skilled than I to hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand and the way your hand goes will be the way the trailer points.
I appreciate your videos and your general enjoyment of the natural environment. I’m an avid backpacker and hiker and climber living in Colorado and constantly seeking out quiet places in a crowded state. I just want to say that very loud vehicles (mufflers…) and OHVs produce a lot of noise that echoes throughout virtually every canyon here these days. Noise pollution isn’t all that different than finding litter on the ground. Both detract from the solitude and connection to untouched nature we pursue in the backcountry.
I remember visiting St Elmo, up at 12000 feet. After an hour or so milling around town, my wife and I climbed into my 1988 Grand Wagoneer, and we pulled out to do a 180 and head back to Fort Collins, when the Wagoneer stalled, then stalled again. And again . . . We finally broke over the edge of town, and coasted down the mountain. The AMC 360 finally fired up down around 10000 feet.
I've been noticing your old fashioned coffee pot. A buddy I used to go camping with a lot had one of those and HAD TO HAVE his coffee in the morning. On one trip he discovered it wasn't in his kitchen box. He rummaged through the garbage, found a beer can, cut the bottom off lined it with paper towel and used it as a "drip coffee maker". 🤣
@@TrailRecon Give it a try with a jelly or preserves you know you like alongside savory. Grape is usually an easy one since people like it on their buttered toast - so if you like that, it will probably pair well on a burger for you. I could see passing on it if all that was available at the time was blackberry. I love blackberry but I know it's a bit of a niche flavor. Jalapeno jam is also bonkers good on burgers
Oh no! Another sweets in the main course controversy. Of course, I'll have to side with Brad on this one again, haha That drive to the Sand Dunes looks like the one we just took from Durango in May. Beautiful country, awesome adventure guys.
I live right by the sand dunes in the mountains, cool to see you guys coming g down to Soco. Glad you liked it. You guys sure timed medano right, it was impossible from some washouts not to long ago.
Hand on the bottom of the steering wheel: push your hand right, trailer backs right; push your hand left, trailer backs left. So simple if only you remember to put your hand on the bottom.
Great video as always, really enjoyed seeing you both at Overland Expo in Loveland. Medano is such a cool tail, glad you got to experience it. For the record, the locals pronounce it Meh-duh-no. Cheers!
Hi Brad and Vagina. This video is the best have ever done . I am so jealous. I live UK. And must of the the land is Privately owned so we don't get to do much of of roading and camping do without Breaking the law that could end up getting our vehicle taken . be the police .q There were probably own campsites which coat a arm and leg The only exception to this is Scotland where a bit of one camping is permitted but even now they're clamping down.keep on making like this . Ps can you open online store in the UK. It coast 20% taxes us postage and it is Too expensive to buy any of your merchandise Eugene
I was there that following Sunday. I found bear tracks everywhere out there. I marked alot of campsites including that one on X. It was an amazing trail I will start out on next trip. I couldn't make to the expo because I started up north working my way souyh while you guys were down south heading north. Man I have to say the clarity and definition of your video is amazingly awesome
You're like the Bob Ross of overlanding, just love your format and content!
Bob was the man!
Nothing like morning coffee and a freshly squeezed episode of TrailRecon
Heck ya!
Man, Regina is no slouch as a cook. Watch out Marco. :)
Oh ya, she feeds me very well!
Thank you! 😊
Yeah she's pretty good I agree, and she's definitely better looking than Marco, but he cooks amazing stuff. 😨 Regina is no slouch though.
@@TrailRecon Brad you're a lucky man I need someone to cook for me!
@@SheldonD7878 I’m sure there is plenty of to cook for you as long as you do the dishes after 😜😂
Glad to see this collaboration with Ozark Overland Adventures! Everytime I watch I feel like I'm being taken on the adventure as well!
We had such a great time with them! Thank you so much, so glad you enjoyed joining us on this trip!
Thank you. We had such a blast together!!
Brad, I love what your wife has done with the kitchen decor. It's sooooo outdoorsy! 😆

Thank you so much!!

Yeah they eat better on the trails than I do at home LOL
I love Colorado… y’all found some beautiful campsites!! Regena cooks some amazing food… love how organized she is too!! Safe travels!! 😊
Thank you!😄

I sure do enjoy your videos. Always well documented, informative and entertaining.
Thank you very much!
Thank you, thank You for taking us on another adventure!!!
Great video as usual. I've never met Matt in person but have chatted with him online. He's always been very helpful answering any questions I've had.
Thank you! He is genuinely a great guy!
Both Matt and Cara are wonderful! They're truly genuine, kind humans. 😊
Thank you so much!!

Makes you think 1880s except modern day with Jeeps !! Love this Guys thank you for sharing your adventures!!
Wow, what a movie! What a landscapes! What a trip!
The backside of that mtn, not heavily traveled, a great place to go.
My favorite TH-camrs on one trip! Love it!!
Regina don't feel bad about backing up a short trailer with a single axle. They are very tricky to keep straight and react to the smallest steering inputs. 👍😀
backing up trailers are like dogs and kids, they require constant correction to keep them on the right track...
Love when my favorite channels collaborate!
Great vid guys
We had such a great time with you guys!!! Can’t wait to see you again!
Right back at ya! Miss you guys!!! 🤗
Need a link for the “skrittle” pls!
Love all of your video, this one specifically because I was feeling like I am also moving along with all of you!
Great episode...Regena, you need to start posting some recipes!? Those blondies looked really good!
Just head over to the blog at TrailRecon.com, I've posted several of my recipes there, including the blondies. trailrecon.com/Blondies-_b_49.html ☺
They were!!!!!
Great video! I enjoyed seeing Regina's confidence build from last video to this with backing up the trailer (you got this girlie :) ) and the FOOD- come on! Looks so incredible ! Makes me angry hungry LOL
She is gettin better for sure! Thank you!

Oh gosh was just projecting myself into some of those landscapes & the eating !! What fun. Great video !!
Glad you enjoyed it!
We did the Medano Pass trail as a group coming home to California in 2012 from a two week Colorado trip. On our ADV motorcycles. Seeing that really long creek crossing and all of that sand brought back memories, not exactly good ones! I believe the trail was actually closed and gated for a number of years following a fire and winter erosion damage. Good to see its open and passable again.
I like how in every scene with the Jeeps, the 392 just drowns out the other two. Lol! Great collab!
Your friends cooking option is genius
Minimalistic next to the black stone and so easy to clean and perfect size for the occasions you share with a slightly larger group.
I’m adding another channel to follow.
Marco does not have competition with Regina. They are both great cooks and more specific camping cooks INFLUENCERS. 😂 😂
1 male 1 female to show it can be done across the board. 😂
Although signs said 4x4, do you think a front wheel drive with beefy tires and some wheelbase clearance could get through those Colorado roads?
Did you physically feel the high altitude?
I think with some of the deep sand and mud sections, you will want 4wd.
Oh ya, especially running around with the camera!
Enjoying the video on a nice Sunday morning. 6 day work week this week, so nice to kick back and enjoy.. Family and I have done Medano several times from west to east and east west. Camped and hiked the trails in the area. The hike to Medano Lake was not very difficult and very rewarding once you reached the lake.
Thank you! Regena and I talked about it while we were up there that we could easily spend a few days on just on Medano Pass.... someday!
@@TrailRecon For sure! Beautiful area and definitely a lot to do. The Sand Dunes are really cool in the spring as the snow melt has the river flowing pretty good in front of the dunes.
Always look forward to your videos. So well edited, narrated, and fun. Brad, you are the Vin Scully of off road/overlanding videos! Enjoying watching Regena use that Blackstone. We just ordered one. Safe travels and all the best.
Thank you so much!
You're going to love the Blackstone!
We have a 22" Blackstone we use at home and take camping. It has opened up so many new meal opportunities we never had before and the cleanup us so easy! Check out Blackstone's channel and the Waltwins channel for great ideas and recipes. Our favoirtes so far are smash burgers and bacon-fried corn.
This trails and the views, looks so nice. My sister snd her husband retired in Carson. Myself just retired in 2019 and can’t wait to do that trails.
It's a great area with so many optional places to explore around there.

absolutely loved this video ..great adventure with great friends and great places... ❤️
OMG my mouth was watering when Regena made those cinnamon rolls! I’m too macho to ask for a recipe but man I would like that recipe!
I appreciate your videos and your general enjoyment of the natural environment. I’m an avid backpacker and hiker and climber living in Colorado and constantly seeking out quiet places in a crowded state.

I remember visiting St Elmo, up at 12000 feet. After an hour or so milling around town, my wife and I climbed into my 1988 Grand Wagoneer, and we pulled out to do a 180 and head back to Fort Collins, when the Wagoneer stalled, then stalled again. And again . . .

Jelly/Jam/Preserves on burgers is next level good. Depending on the flavor, a fried egg on it in addition to the jelly is also awesome
I'm down for an egg my burger, but just haven't acquired the taste for jelly on it.

I was there that following Sunday. I found bear tracks everywhere out there. I marked alot of campsites including that one on X. It was an amazing trail I will start out on next trip. I couldn't make to the expo because I started up north working my way souyh while you guys were down south heading north. Man I have to say the clarity and definition of your video is amazingly awesome
Glad we didn't see any bear at camp! Thank you!
Awesome video and I’m so hungry now.
Fantastic job. Great people.
