El Paso to Timberon NM and Lincoln forest Overland

[@gamboajorge6253]

How long would the drive be without problems? That you think? Haha

[@southwestoverland]

Not very long, depends on how comfortable you are driving at speed in yhe desert. Probably 3 hrs to 4hrs

[@dddortega]

whts the reason your camping was cut short

[@southwestoverland]

We had an incident and had to take my kid to the emergency center. Completely unrrlated to camping.

[@dddortega]

oh sorry to hear about tht

[@dominicgarcia85]

I didn’t know about this pass I’m very very intrigued I want to try

[@southwestoverland]

Its a scenic trail nothing difficult

[@dddortega]

[@GovernedPeasant]

​@@southwestoverlandwe would, when???

[@diph23]

Is this the backroad by borderpatrol checkpoint?

[@southwestoverland]

You can start it by the border patrol check point.

[@SaltySausage83]

A year later and stumbled on this video. Did this trail accidentally just exploring the area. Was driving my wife kia Sorento

[@southwestoverland]

Yeah lol wasnt a very difficult trail lol it's very scenic

[@palomexa]

Hi Timothy, so I should be ok with a stock Jeep?

[@maltnhopz515]

What route is that exactly? I live in El Paso and was looking for a back way into Lincoln national Forest without going up 54. Thank you take care

[@southwestoverland]

This trail is very nice, it starts off of Montana past the mountain crossing Red Sands. If you go on OnX offroad you can click on the Timberon Express trail. This is my OnX link if you would like to help out the channel. onxoffroad.app.link/oyEToMIywBb

[@christopherpayne4778]

Camped that same road in January! Beautiful place. Although on our way up we did come to a pretty deep washout, which caused us to drop into the river bed and come out the other side of the washed out road. Very eventful day but made it all worth it when we got to camp!

[@Carhoardersociety]

Yeah with rain and snow fall the trail can go from nice and mild to more aggressive. Its beautiful scenery though.

Emmanuel Lopez I’m thankful for my winch that’s for sure! Def will camp there again though! Safe travels!

[@brianalvarez4477]

Wow more videos need to be made of this trail, thanks for sharing. How much time would you say would have taken if all the set backs wouldn't of happened?

[@southwestoverland]

It would depend on your comfort of speed but realistically 4hrs without set backs and at a enjoyable pace.

[@94gtvert]

Some friends and I headed up to Cloudcroft/Timberon for Labor Day do you have any trail recommendations?

[@southwestoverland]

Check out the Sacramento lookout. It's an awesome overlook of the area.

[@ises1970]

Awesome thanks for sharing !

[@southwestoverland]

Thanks for watching!

[@carlstarr4149]

I was wondering if 54 HWY be faster, just past orogrande past Border Patrol check, is paved i think for 15miles or so then one would turn north into Timberon back way....would be better faster than Hueco Tanks North toTimberon? Thanks

[@southwestoverland]

Yes taking that road would definitely cut time down. We will be doing this trail once more on Friday August the 26th.

[@drested1793]

I’ve lived in NM for 45 years and never knew there was Timberon.

[@southwestoverland]

It's very small but cool to pass by on the way to cloudcroft

[@efemath6744]

Would a mid travel 2wd make it on this trail?

[@southwestoverland]

Yeah I dont see why it wouldn't unless it's snowed. Otherwise it's well maintained

[@efemath6744]

@@southwestoverland sounds great! Thanks!

[@autotek7930]

Man are y'all still active around el paso? I'm still putting my xj together and looking for friends to go wheeling with. It's taking me a while coz I don't get much time coz I'm always fixing other people's cars.....I just installed a re 4.5 inch lift and need to break it in. Is there anywhere near Central I can take it to test? Don't wanna travel too far until I know she good. It's new to me so I don't trust her yet

Heck yeah glad to have you

[@God_Bless_President_Trump]

Can you get to timberon without going through all those off-roads?

[@jonc7371]

yeah but youd have to go all the way around through cloudcroft

[@emmanuellopez7910]

Yes you can, you can head to Alamogordo and circle around through Cloudcroft.

[@sgtaugie]

That's nice trail been on there a couple of times I'm planning to do a trip back to Lincoln National Forest but the route I'm thinking is going through Dell City to Timberon

[@southwestoverland]

Sounds like an interesting route let me know if you need someone to tag along.

[@sgtaugie]

I'll let you know I hate going on trails by myself

[@bugnuts2008]

Awesome Video!! Are all these roads accessible to the public? Can you share the route info including the county road numbers?

[@southwestoverland]

All these roads are accessible to public. You start off on Hueco Ranch Rd . I will get you the county rd numbers soon.

[@tylerschwoerer9855]

Where is the start of this route in El Paso? Hueco Ranch Road correct?

[@southwestoverland]

Yes this is off hueco ranch rd 😀

[@pecosray]

What campsite near Timberon did you stay?

[@southwestoverland]

We didn't stay at a campground, we stayed by a forest road by Timberon.

[@michaelwhite3665]

Anymore trips into nm expected

[@915fubar]

Bro how long was this drive? What route did u take to get there. I’m going to purchase land out in timberon and am trying to find the quickest way there.

[@southwestoverland]

There is multiple ways to get there. Shortest way is going off of 54 , this trail is around 3 hr long
