Well, would you wheel Texas's Big Bend National Park?

[@CarlosMendez-jq6dc]

Love the progress of your Jeep

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you, its has been coming along. My favorite mod so far is the Genright rear bumper.

[@imacolbert7380]

What a cool area and love this video!!!

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you

[@Joshyutah]

This was such a fun trip. I am so wanting to plan another to hit another chunk of trails.

[@JeepAdventures]

We all want to go do it again.

[@JWard2]

Loving these videos Cali

[@JeepAdventures]

Thanks Jeff

[@stevenblack4552]

Thank you for this series 😊

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you for watching

[@grannygamerquilter]

Nice Video! Thanks for sharing. I like how you created this interesting video. Big Bend is such a great place! We really liked Grizzly Lake (Colorado) with that first obstacle, The Wall. However, the shelf road section made me want to walk rather than ride. First time I was really scared! LOL. Thanks for sharing!

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you for watching. I know what you are saying, there has been more then one i have walked first.

[@martinlucas3344]

Going to plan a trip there. Thank you.

[@JeepAdventures]

Hit me up if you have questions.

[@ajf5823]

I’m heading down this winter to work outside BBNP with my Jeep and off road trailer and am looking forward to exploring the trails and camping

[@JeepAdventures]

You will have a blast

[@gloriahelen6347]

I just got off trail yesterday, it reminded me of 29 Palms Marine Corps base. I also towed a stranded Jeeper who was coming up from the south along River Road. I was surprised how few folks were on the trail. 6:32 they were broken down just south of the Black Gap.

[@JeepAdventures]

Yeah, it really does seem like 29 palms area.

[@JanetGraniteJeep]

Haven't been on many BoH trails yet. But of the ones we've seen so far Schnebly Hill in AZ was the most scenic and Firebreak 5 in Oregon was the most fun. You're absolutely right about Table Mesa. Hoping they eventually add some in Washington.

[@JeepAdventures]

Yeah, we were talking about running up to the 1 trail in Washington to run that. Have you done that one?

[@JanetGraniteJeep]

@JeepAdventures Jeep doesn't have any BoH trails in Washington that I know of, unfortunately. Several groups have submitted trails to them. Naches Pass Trail should definitely be one. It's quite iconic here. Done it a few times. I've done the 2 in Oregon (Firebreak 5 and Cedar Tree) and they are great too, but Naches Pass and Lower Naches have a lot of history.

[@JeepAdventures]

You are right, it is firebreak #5 in OR that is in the badge of honor. I have heard of Naches and I was told it was really cool, worth doing. We might come up there this summer. If so we will have to hit them all up.

[@donmontalvo1]

Seeing this a year after you posted it, but great video. I did Black Gap 4x4 in 2021, and I got lost. :) I latched on to two Jeepers and they did Black Gap 4x4 again, then they did River Road. I'm going next weekend, hoping to find someone there so I don't get lost. I also hope to do River Road too.

[@JeepAdventures]

check out the trailsoffroad app, that will help you stay on track.

[@ElmoUnk1953]

Great job 👏

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you

[@oxidize99]

Great vid. Thanks.

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you for watching. And if you haven't please subscribe

[@openroad9880]

sweet stuff. this is exactly what Im getting ready to do as well. I want to knock out all the badge of honor trrails. I will also be putting it on my channel. Good stuff brother I subd. Love your content.

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you, and have fun. There are some cool trails out there.

[@liliazampa6495]

Would this be a good overlanding area?

[@JeepAdventures]

For sure, there is plenty of small campsites alone all the routes for people to camp at.

[@jensonbutler7748]

Take me with you.

[@JeepAdventures]

Where abouts do you live?

[@jaxxgarrett9314]

How is the offroading?

[@JeepAdventures]

The area is mostly easy trails from what we saw. Even the "Hard" trails were mild at best.

[@cedricbarlow220]

Could a stock Jeep do this trail?

[@JeepAdventures]

For sure, just make sure you take a friend driving their own vehicle as this place is rather remote.

[@ElmoUnk1953]

It’s VERY remote. Zero cell service once you go east of Panther Junction. Make sure your Jeep is running reliably, and take your time.

[@Legion_JLU]

I read there’s no phone service how did you check in for the app?

[@JeepAdventures]

Download the app before hand. when you get there you can open the app (offline) automatic then open the trail and check in. once you are in service later, reopen the app and follow the steps to finish. some times you need to click on your profile.

[@seanwhent9588]

How far is black gap from the entrance of the park? How long do I need to plan to go into the park, do the trail and head out?

[@JeepAdventures]

So the park is very slow moving (slow speed limits and rangers giving tickets). It took about 45 minutes from the gate to the turn off. Another 15 minutes to air down about 30-45 minutes to the trailhead. You can easily do the trail in 45 -60 minutes if you don't stop. Then to exit another 45 minutes. This is all carrying a decent (not fast) pace.

[@JeepAdventures]

So plan for 4 to 5 hours to be safe.

[@cindysullivan4265]

Like your videos, but it seems that most of you are more interested in having your face on the screen more than the scenery.. I do appreciate you and others sharing And would like to simply see the trails and areas given the screen time.. Be Safe!

[@JeepAdventures]

Thank you for the feedback. It really depends on how much trail there is to film for how much facetime in the video. The longer trails will have less talking while the shorter ones will have more as there is more to express on while to do the short trail. Thank you for watching

[@ribjones2654]

How long did it take you to finish the trail?

[@JeepAdventures]

It took us a little over an hour to do the trail. Overall, all the trails were about 3 hours including airing up.

[@JeepAdventures]

But could have easily taken longer if we enjoyed the drive a bit more. I would plan for a 3/4 day to do the trail and drive in and back out.
