- Pritchett Canyon in Moab Utah has been one of my favorite off-road trails for awhile now but I have never seen it like this! The rain completely changes the landscape, and these gravity defying obstacles now become virtually impassable. That said, we had an outstanding adventure and I couldn't be more thankful to have such great company on such an epic day. I hope you enjoy these 4x4 off-road videos and remember go prepared when you try trails like this! Be safe and enjoy these places responsibly!
Moab Utah is a sacred place for us offroaders. Let take care of it and share it with future 4x4 owners

I think from start to finish this was your best video to date.
Thank you!
I really appreciate that you're not putting up 12 ads in a 30 min video the way so many other channels are doing.
Dude, your production quality is awesome. Thanks for the dirt church Sunday!
I’d rather be wheeling and thinking of God, than sitting in church thinking of wheeling!
@@tedecker3792 this for sure!
Thanks man!
This do not really sounds like a do....
Looking forward to seeing you slap an RCLT on that Tacoma
Big Mike in his taco can do some amazing things.
That RCLT + tacobox 580:1 , just blows me away.
559 strong !
Smartest man brings a umbrella, learned that lesson last year.
People from western Washington just accept its going to rain on them. In the region which is known as being rainy nobody uses an umbrella
Yes. Rain will make the rock stickier..AFTER it rains and dries.. lol
You guys found out why the normally grippy rock in that area is called "slick rock". The "slick rock" term that is used in Moab often confuses people. After all there is normally grip galore. But add a little rain, and bingo, you now know why it's called slick rock. The sand buildup on dry rock is the other condition that will cause "slick rock".
It's also called "slick rock" from the early settlers because it was slippery for horses with their metal shoes.
Nate I love the slow motion shots. Looks like you can learn a lot by playing on slippery slopes, and you had the entire trail all to yourself.
Thanks! We didn't see anyone all day... it was almost perfect lol
That's a gnarly trail!
To paraphrase: "Any idiot will carry an umbrella when it's raining. A wise man will carry one when it's not."
Is that Plato or Confucius?
@@Fix_It_Again_Tony I thought it was an old Irish saying. Although I did first hear it about 23-24 years ago, so I may be misremembering the source.
Lol perfect 👌
@@jonstarritt848 People in glass houses sink ships.
All the scouts made fun of my umbrella on hikes until it rained, snowed or the sun beat down. Then I looked pretty smart. Carry a chrome liteflex everywhere
You know the Marlin decal alone...gives 33% more traction to the ground. Lol
Man, that tire placement at 25:15 your spotter is on f'ing point! Got you right in the absolute perfect spot. Looked like an awesome day!
Awesome video!!! Rain in Moab is a game changer! Nate what you think about IFS on that kind of terrain?
Bring on the yota vs jeep rivalry. Saving to get my taco box btw 😁
Hoping for a Tacobox in a few years also
Already swapped my yn67 hilux with a 3rz complete with A340 tranny and chain drive t/case (V1FA). I have the R1FA ready for doubling.
If they ever stock it again. Been checking for a couple of years now.
@@Scavs_Inc think they had a sale on them just recently. Also saw Trailgear has one as well, but will wait to see the reviews.
Great shots/ filming and editing! Taking notes!! 😄 Looks like an amazing time!
While it was 80 degrees in WA we were in 50 degrees in Oregon; missed it too 🤦♀️
Great bunch of guys having fun and it showed! ❤️🐞
Thank you! It figures Washington has it's best weather when we leave lol
@IrishStew - We drove thru central Oregon to Crater Lake. Beautiful drive!
4:59 A rare sighting of Nate in the wild wearing his hat forwards
😂
how did that controversial clip make it past editing
i love people that have winches and NEVER USE THEM! there's a reason i put one on lol... i'm not ashamed to pull some cable!
"Those people" always use them when they wheel with us lol. They just need to push the rig and find it's limits. Then the winch is just another tool in the arsenal 🤘
@@DirtLifestyle hell yeah!!
The mix between a walkthrough of the trail, driving techniques and cinematic shots wrapped up with the amazing storytelling makes this video too damn good!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Taco was the only that didn’t need a slow mo shot. Just 🌮 📦
Another great video. Looks like you all had fun!. I have seen other videos of that Marlin Crawler Tacoma. That is an amazing set up.
This is the first video I watched from Dirt Lifestyle thanks to my buddy Jared. Epic shit guys.
Nate that was such a great video! I'm telling you've hit tv quality in content, voice overs, music and editing, not to mention camera work. Such an achievement! I'm so glad to have been part of your journey.
Love that Taco 👍
Great video! That Tacoma was awesome!
I'm pretty sure I've seen that Tacoma before at the end of a toy run in Fresno.
Love that Taco Supreme!
Me too!
That Taco is CRAZY !!!! Where can I follow it ??
Impressive watching that diesel patiently turn those tires
Never said this before I don’t think but I love that you switch up the music just about every time if not every video. Feels like a new episode and a new Nate experience when you put the work in to create great content like this. Really enjoy your stuff thank you Nate.
Nate, Kelly---put a suck down attachment point on the front end for the winches! Kelly, do lower transfercase gears before going auto...
Hell yeah!
No manual trans enthusiast is gonna be happy with an automatic - especially behind a lower HP powerplant like the 4.0 (which I adore and own 4 of, but power houses they are not)
What's your impressions on the tacobox
Seems to work very well. But I would need to install one and get some seat time to get an accurate opinion 👍
35 min Wheeling video by Nate?! My day just got alot better!
I always enjoy watching off-roaders from different parts of the world because it shows that different terrains require different setups.
My off-roading is mainly sand dunes, so swb and gas engines are usually the choice, but now I can see how lwb can be better.
Great camera work. Such an awesome video. looks like a ton of fun. Would love to see you guys make it to the southeast one day and work the mud and swamps. Would be a total culture shock.
I hope you went to hangout with Matt in Winder on this trip
Why did you even publish this video ? Seriously ?
Wow great video
I have a jeep but man my respect for the taco 💯‼️
Hey man you got a winch?
Na, I got a Toyota
😂🤣😂🤣😂
I love it!!! 🤙
Very nicely put together video! I love it!
Jeep 🤘🏻
Leave it to the Pacific Northwest guys to bring rain at the desert. Hahaha!
Nate excellent video.
Thank you!
🤘🏽😎🇺🇲
Excellent video, even in the rain. Automatics to the front! And an IFS that works!
Ever consider a "cinch down" arrangement on the shorter wheelbases?
Please buy some hats without the big sideways "D" in the front. My moto friends say "D hats are for dumbasses."
🤦♂️Any experienced Offroader will tell you,, wet stones are slippery stones. Key word,,
" Slickrock" 🤷♂️..
I'm not sure how you're driving your own rig and constantly hopping out to get all of these great shots. Nice work as always, Nate.
Lol luckily I have wheeling buddies who are very patient 😁
I only watched this video because of the Taco Box machine.
Me too
Marlin Crawler and RST never again. real good at taking your money and promising product that never is delivered. Excuses excuses. It's like they crowd fund their stuff. Take peoples money and some day maybe deliver product.
Their buddy RST rock solid toys, just finished taking a bunch of peoples money and closing up with nothing delivered.
Great business, they remind me of tork axles
Great videography, intelligent commentary....outstanding video! Makes me want to go back to Moab ASAP.
What is Kelly's current crawl ratio?
I hate to see him give up on the technical nature and control of the standard just cause he needs a little lower gearing for the super technical stuff he's doing here when there are PLENTY of gearing options to make that rig crawl beautifully like the FrogFab NP231/D300 doubler kit I just ordered for my YJ.
Every time Nate opens his mouth... Weather gets worse.. Lol. Nice video! Thanks for sharing!
Lol
now if you had used the Rover, due to all those awesome mods installed, would have been a piece of cake/doughnut/apple tart/southern chicken pot pie, all cooking in the rear of the Rover while you climb up those gradients ..........LOL.......Love ja
Early settlers called it slick rock because horses couldn’t get good traction while wearing metal shoes, it is also slick while wet as you found out. You will also never get rid of that Moab mud. It’ll stick like cement on your exhaust
Great video! I love it. You guys keep it real! I just love "we're not to proud to pull line" and "we did the trail without breaking or roll overs" Great tech info and driving tips along the way! Awesome. Glad I found your channel. Completely agree with everything weekend warrior said. Keep up the great work. I seriously cannot believe someone did a thumbs down?
Thank you very much for watching! Unfortunately I have some folks that thumbs down every video lol. Can't please them all even if I try to 👍
I bet after the rain dries you’ll have the best possible traction. No water and minimal sand
That's what I hear! No such luck when we were on pritchett lol.
Hay Nate ,good videos .I watched both, Capps walk around, on his Jeep , and Pritchett Cyn. informitive and fun to watch .thanks.
Ha ha, I'm in California and I keep an umbrella in my Jeep also. Love that trail. Did it twice over EJS and following week.
Great job guys.
Found this video while surfing. Great job! I live in AZ. Lots of great trails here. Which im sure you know.
After seeing that Tacoma preform on the trail, i have new hope for my 86 Bronco. I was concerned about the IFS. But it seems that with the right gear ratio, its not really an issue.
Great trail video! Love the Toy vs Jeep banter (I own/wheel both), really enjoyed the focus on wheelbase vs obstacle talk, breaks up more what certain builds are better at instead of just brand loyalty!. Great work, Nate!
I did Top of the World in my Lexus in sleet/snow, and it was rough. The worst of it was coming down, and definitely slid off a couple shelf obstacles and banged the frame hard. A bit of a pucker!
Excellent video Nate! Thank you! Do you think a suckdown winch on Kelly's rig would be beneficial?
I'd love to hear the dialogue in the next group of guys coming through there thinking the rain washed the rocks clean making then sticky AFTER they dry only to find the routes covered in strange mud......
Spotted the Slowest Tacoma in the world !! love Big Mike’s Marlin Taco box Tacoma ...
I'm a Jeep guy but I love that Taco. I've seen his video's on the Marlin Crawlers page. Left his winch at home... Did he also forget to turn his lockers on too? Seen him do some impressive stuff open.
Nice video. Guess you left all the umbrellas in Washington.
How is that Badlands winch working out?
I love your videos one question why not add ORIs ?? I think with your setup it would help with your crawling!
My 2cents!
it rained on us on my first trail ever in moab about halfway through hells, definitely adds some pucker factor. compared to the midwest where rain is just rain, the mud gets muddier
Slick rocks and sandstone.... Looks like Eastern Kentucky to me. Welcome to Red River Gorge
Long time viewer and fan from Battle Ground, WA. Love all your videos but this one is very good for not being a technical/ how to. Thank you
Funny how quickly a bit of rain can turn the King of Krawl to the Pope of Rope, isn't it? Good to see you guys all give it a shot, but even better to see a group who doesn't let ego replace common sense and broken parts.
Very well done video, made my way over here after hearing about it from BigMike! New Subscriber!
Did steel bender in the rain/snow,. Great day,. Had micky rubicon in front of me all day. Wild man.. ..lol..
You Washington boy’s brought the rain with you 🤙
Wheel base and gear ⚙ info is helpful to understand what works best. I enjoy the videos 📹. Keep up the good work.
Man that Taco is sweet!!
Nate you live close to the elwha river? I watched a cool documentary of the dam removals and the trout repopulation.
Also love you have the slowest crawling tacoma in the world and then poor kelly with his stock 231 lol.
Really cool seeing the Marlin Crawler Taco in action. I suspect now that you've got something in store from them in your Taco. Another great one Nate🍺👍
Absolutely! I can't wait for my RCLT 🤘 and now the Tacoma is getting 40s aswell lol
@@DirtLifestyle I'd love to get one on my 3rd gen 4Runner once they become available too 👍
From Washington state also (yakima) we completed pritchett in the rain !! Winching was needed 👍🏻
The camera never does the trail any justice. I loved to see everyone working together to get to the end. Maybe you can talk to MC and get your Taco dialed in?!
Great video and thanks for sharing!
Are we gonna see you at ATV Takeover this week in North Bend OR?? Be at Boxcar, or be square. Love the content brotha.
are you putting a Marlin Crawler Transfer case on the 3rd Gen Taco Build?
Keep me posted?
90% of the Moab I wouldn’t do in the rain. Takes the fun out of crawling slick rock for sure.
@dirtlifestyles What do you guys think about the Badlands winch Muddy Beard is using on his rig??
Kelly’s Jeep sliding out of frame at 18:19 was pretty funny. That’s one steep obstacle.
Awesome video,
I'd love to do that trail some day.
Ofcourse when it's not raining.
just watch how EV offroad cars changes the whole game. it will a night and day change. All those fine tunebale torque available in all ranges will be earth shattering.
Awesome video!! What frame rate were shooting the obstacles in? I love how you did the slow mo
I had my fun with a manual transmission and tall gearing off road, but I'm an automatic convert now (for off roaders, at least).
Awesome video Nate!
You guys from the PNW should have rain all the time🤣😂🤣😂
sine you've done this trail on 35's, what size tires are you on now doing this trail? big difference?
Does anyone ever take the right line on yellow hill? I don't think I've seen a video of people doing it, at least don't remember. I tried the right line, more technical, when I was on that trail because it looked harder then the main line.
Thanks for taking us along on this awesome trip!
Thank you for joining us! Happy to have you 👊
Good video, I see you brought your Washington State rain cloud with you.🤗
Your vids rock. Pritchett rocks. Moab rocks 🤙all n all good stuff
Would it help muddy beards Kelly to add a suck down point onto his axle to help bring front end down ?
Great content. And good music to go with it. Most channels have me scrambling for the mute button.
Definitely stepping up the video production and editing chops! Great video!
Your narration of this video is pretty awesome. Especially the voice over.
