From the Desert to the Mountains in One Day! - Rim Rocker Trail

[@Nick-tp1gp]

Sorry for being demanding, Brad, but I speak for many when I say we can't get enough of your videos. Keep 'em coming!

[@TrailRecon]

I appreciate that!

[@chovue2363]

Just stop it dude! Every video upload is a week of obsessive shopping online for new gear o dont have money for! 😣

[@ralfberger6960]

It's so good to see, Marco is back on tour with you all. And, Brad, thanks so much for your great videos! Pls keep em coming on.

[@TeamSnap760]

So good

[@blackfoot16]

You’ve done it again Brad. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your channel. Good to see Marco and his daughter Paula and David, Josh, and Alan. Keep the good stuff coming.

[@francowj]

I started watching your videos for the trails and the cool rigs but now I really look forward to the FOOD!!! Man, you even have me looking at improving my camp coffee game, nor more instant coffee for me, thanks Brad!!!

[@BroncBro]

Literally my FAVORITE overlanding channel

[@basantakumardoley9157]

I can never think of unsubscribing your channel

[@vitor2650]

Thank you for giving me a “feel good” place to go to get away from so much negativity!

[@DC9727737757]

Did the Rocker last year with my Uncle David. Absolutely one of best trips I’ve ever done. Trail is pretty easy. Not many challenges , but to be respected as with any trail. Did it in 2 days. Agree with Brad, 3 days would be perfect.

[@stevend9124]

Just what I needed a TrailRecon video been a crappy week so far 😀😀

[@R3dWolf24]

I think I speak for everyone when I say the more overlanding videos the better!!! Keep em comin man, they’re always awesome!

[@4WDTrek]

Shoot, I wanted more so much that I started to do my own wheeling and overlanding channel! These guys are true inspirations!

[@davidh6931]

Just got home from the dentist with instructions to relax, just my luck a new Trailrecon video, just love it. Can't wait to get back to visit the USA. Cheers from Queensland Australia.

[@jameswalker8858]

Once again you have outdone yourself Brad, amazing trip and I cant wait for the opportunity to join you on one of you're amazing adventures!

[@ericwwe331]

Good view, good food, and most important of all, with good friends.

[@TrailRecon]

That's right

[@johnbarrios1598]

A great way to relax after a hard day of work. Watching Trail Recon!!!

[@ianmburke]

Finished dinner sat on the couch.... Phone notification: new Trail Recon, with zero pause.. **click watch** 🤤🤤🤤

[@TrailRecon]

You rock!

[@channonspencer1631]

And now your hungry again 😋

[@mitchellperezdelgado689]

When I watch your videos I feel at peace. Weird to explain; they are almost therapeutic.

[@gregormiller4037]

Check out Chadde and Tammys site. They breed/raise Lycan Shepherds and Renascence Bulldogges (back to their original heritage). Their site is 1st508th Airborne, if ya do visit, say hey for me :)....very soothing post(s).

[@peteacevedo3411]

Brad great to have you guys back on the trail and looks like Marco is right at home with the trailer. Really looking forward to this adventure to Colorado.

[@sonnicman]

Good food, good friends, and good vistas. What more could you want. Totally agree a trailer is not for everyone, but transferring some of that weight from Marco’s Jeep to the trailer I’m sure has been a godsend. Also at 4 months I see the dogs are into their teething phase. Brings back good memories of when my Shepherd would chew on a bone for hours on end.

[@explorermates5655]

Hey! In Queensland Australia many of your adventures parallel ours - great people, great gear, great food. Having travelled the deserts of our little island, the outback, the real bush it is pretty good to see your version. Particularly in 2020, a challenging year. Brad your happy smiling face is fantastic, it is something we look forward to - living the dream.

[@Idahoshepherds83440]

Brads a rocker ! Hair nation channel 39 . I listen to the same. Rock on Brad. I just bought a 2009 Wrangler X 2 door. I put a FSR tent on . Waiting for Friday and my winch gets installed. Ill do a walk around on it in the next couple of days. Cheers !

[@butchhansen391]

Glad to see Marco back on the trail.

[@ogninjaspy]

That campsite is bomb!! Well done guys! I like your little space pod. It looks pretty well insulated. Any ventilation/condensation issues? Also, can you tell me what brand/model tent your buddy Alan is using?

[@brucenorris2274]

Brad, thanks for taking the time to make these videos. It's great to be able to watch an adventure when I am unable to get out myself. But I am looking forward to getting my jeep and trailer out there soon. Happy Trails!!!

[@bigben5056]

Ummm n e one else wondering, I thought Marco didn’t eat meat. Did I miss something here? I’m loving the new look on Marco’s Jeep. Keep the videos rolling, AWESOME as always!!!

[@OVRLNDX]

I started eating meat when this Corona thing started, now I can't stop! LoL

[@bigben5056]

That’s funny but ya’gotta do whatch gotta do. I love it

[@turbojunki]

Great video, glad to see Marco back out there. New gear, cool pups. This was a full video.

[@larryparker1678]

really enjoyed this tonight, its like going back in time, when you spent so much time in the field. Not to say I didnt like all your coffee series, but i like these the best. Safe travels and good meals to you my friend.

[@henrikm4657]

Me and a buddy did the Rimrocker in early June, starting in Montrose. Amazingly cool. The only other rigs we met on the trail in 3 days was a convoy of Jeeps that had decided to have lunch, smack in the middle of the narrow and rocky trail near La Sal I think. They asked if we could wait 15 m for them to finish. We were in no particular hurry, so we waited and eventually got into Moab a short while later. The scenery was just stunning the entire way! If I were to do it again, I’d probably take 4 days and explore some of the intersecting trails and maybe some mine exploration. Can’t wait for the next episode!

[@drm6007]

Your channel and content helped to inspire me to get out into the dirt. Last week I ran trails in Sedona, Telluride and Moab. What an adventure! Keep up the great work!

[@jones_edition]

Yep! Marco is keeping the trailer lol

[@themartiandefender2128]

Seems like ages since we've seen you & Marco out together Brad ! Loving the look of Marco's jeep with the blue to match the camper ! Don't tell my Landrover mates about me liking a Jeep 🤣🤣🤣

[@tjshine7444]

Great Video! I'm watching the pups the whole time!

[@pismo6111]

WOW,that 20 minutes went buy like 20 seconds.Cant wait for the next video.

[@RogueOverland]

Good info! RR has been on our bucket list for a few years, hoping to check it out this summer.

[@Rufusthehound]

You have the greatest country to go wheeling on. Can’t wait to see the rest of your trip.

[@frb821]

Tremendous trail... LIKE WOW, the scenery from your campsite is so inspiring....

[@RoadRage_OG]

Very well done - location, people, gear, vehicles, overall production --- Outstanding -- thank you for the time you invest into this! Oh,,, Go Navy (Submiarines Rock)

[@jeffmiller8950]

Really enjoying your video adventures. Ironically my son and I just did the Rim Rocker (from Montrose to Moab) at the end of July. We did it in two days and spent the night at Buckeye Reservoir (nice little camping area)... lots of fun and a great time. As you said most is pretty tame, with the most rough part being a rocky cobble stone patch in Utah. Thanks for sharing your adventures!

[@L3GITFIXIE]

Excited for another video! Great view at that campsite, literally breath taking. Awesome vlog once again.

[@sandralutz-rodriguez2864]

that had to be such and awesome trip and you all covered some serious ground!

[@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736]

I don't know where I saw one of those blue water jugs that can filter water, but that is a great item to have for sure! if you can find a stream coming down from one of those mountains, you don't have to worry about it as much, but that is a great item to have camping and off road travel!

[@campdads]

Thanks for sharing Brad, wish we had 2 days to explore Rim Rocker, but we're just using it as a connecting trail out of Telluride to Moab. Good to get a preview though! We've got 10 days on trail starting this Tuesday in Santa Ysabel and ending in Tahoe, going through AZ, CO, and UT, logging about 1200 miles of dirt :)

[@ronkreed]

We've had so much smoke in the Moab valley, up until recently. Glad you timed your trip well. Love your channel.

[@lvwrx]

Thanks for the video Brad!! another trail to add to my bucket list. Family is bigger now so Im in the market for a 7 seater, finally got custody of my boy, debating on keeping the XJ or not...ughhhh

[@mikedean8061]

Nice to see you back on the trails...and Marco's cooking is killing me man. Hope you enjoyed Def Leopard. I never got into that music.

[@kevingray4996]

Great to see you and Marco back on the trail together. I have this same trip planned for next month in reverse of what you guys did and will be putting it on my channel grayline overland. We have a Meaner Bean trailer that we use and I love the versatility of have a galley and sleeping area.

[@tal2471983]

Wow! We have been in full lockdown for 12 weeks now 😔 (Melbourne, Australia) i loved the video! i used to go out nearly every weekend with good buddies untill we relocate 3 years ago and I sold my JK as we needed something less hardcore for every day and boy watching these videos really made me miss this life style. Im picking up a 2015 Grand cherokee overland this week and as soon as we are out of these restrictions im going exploring.

[@RamCruiserOverland]

Can't wait to see the rest! I'll be running through New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah next month. Now I know how I should get to Moab from the Alpine Loop!

[@victorc6249]

Love the bromance of Marco and Brad !

[@OVRLNDX]

LoL!!!

[@jacksonmartin8742]

Absolutely loved all the drone shots!

[@tomf3969]

That trip looks wonderful. And the food is incredible.

[@crazyedd707]

Thanks for the videos Brad. Like always, awesome content and great camera work. Keep em videos coming, we can't get enough!!!

[@NorthBoundExpeditions]

Looking forward to the next leg of the journey. Really enjoying the longer trip videos!

[@EIChupalibre]

Happy to see that the trailer is useful (there is no doubt it can be !) and enjoyed, by the Marco furthermore !

Man, the food. The food is all I have to say. Salivating.

[@pacojaramillo1404]

My friend and I just did this trail this past Monday. It is an amazing trail.

[@BrianGlassEOD]

Sweet, I did the Rimrocker from Montrose to Moab a few months ago. I’ll definitely do it again. I did it in my stock Tacoma with a Habitat. I definitely didn’t eat as well as you guys.

[@moabwheeling]

Awesome adventure with great friends it doesn't get much better . That view though , Amazing !! Take care and be safe sir .

[@edwhite4992]

Another Awesome video!!! Hahaha wish we all had a friend like Marco. Great guy.

[@mikerobbins5049]

Amazing..... I will for sure look for the next video and I just added this trail to my Bucket List.

[@ASKid24]

Oh my goodness that view from the campsite. It doesn’t get any better than that! Also now I have to go eat something because of all the good food I just watched being cooked 🤣

[@bryanhernandez9188]

Awesome video! Looks like a really fun trail. Also loving Marco's new look on his rig!

[@achavesbarrantes]

missed very much of your overland/camping videos! awesome!

Belgian Malinois

@@OVRLNDX thanks for confirming, they're a great breed! I can't wait to hop on the jeep with my belgian malinois this weekend and go do some exploring!

[@ross2521]

@@KyleLunsford Thanks Marco as I wasnt sure. I have a male German Shepherd and a female Belgian malinois and the female can be a handful, very good dog though.

[@scrappyjackalope9558]

Great video!! I love seeing you and Marcos friendship in these videos too..

[@ipdjbt]

I just learned about this trail during my stay in Ouray this summer. Its awesome seeing you cover it! And that tent is badass! I'm sure it controls the temps better than my Gazelle T4.

[@gzrgldr8288]

My friend and I did the Rim Rocker trail from Moab to Montrose back in June. We cheated once we got to Nucla and took some highway just to save some time, but in a couple of weeks are taking the trail back to Moab to do the rest of it. Beats being on the highway any day.

[@wardperozuk2782]

As mentioned before, that went by real quick. Could have been a 40 minute video! Awesome to be out with friends having fun. Looking forward to the review on the tent. I noticed that Marco had a bandage on in the last video and has a glove on in this one. Hope his hand is healing well.

[@renaissancepoet]

That campsite view looked amazing, but my vote for the video thumbnail is 19:27 Lol

[@jeeb4x4]

Your videos have become essential for me!👍

[@musicplusink]

Love this!!! I'm dying to do this with my JLU... And Marco, dude you are me a little bit older. I'm dying for my beard to turn white lol but you love to cook and so do I.... Hope to meet you one day. Awesome trip

[@GamerNxUSN]

Have you seen the Gazelle tents? It seemed that shift pod packed to about the same size that a Gazelle t4 packs down to and the t4 certainly looks bigger set up.

[@HateNolly92]

Absolutely love these videos! Thank you guys for doing these. Can't wait to start over landing. You guys should have a little segment of on-camp recipes! Lol

[@stevestott3652]

Wow that was a awesome camping spot . Oh and that meal sure looked great . Cheers you all . That trailer sure looked like it belonged to that Jeep with there matching colors . I would not want to give it back ether . Thanks for sharing your awesome adventure videos with us all your over landing friends . From Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A.
