How To Find Off-Road Trails, Overland Routes, and Epic Campsites For Free | Gaia GPS Basics

[@kennedypuckettmusic2067]

I know saying this probably won’t mean much but I swear to all of you and myself that I will live by the moto of “leave it better than you found it” both in off-roading and in life in general. You talking about the importance of maintaining the beauty of the sights really stuck with me👍

[@drive395]

Your "leave no trace" intro was spot on. I wish more KZbin videos emphasized this they way you did. Great info.

[@metalogre1]

That was killer man. It will help so many people to get into overlanding and do it right!

[@dennishochwender8208]

Thank you for the great intro! Well done.

[@RichardVac]

True, lets do our part please! Our country has amazing places. Thanks for the map instructions, great! video 👍👍👍

[@pocwave445]

Awesome. Thanks. Love that you wore a shirt telling me not to take your advice for the video.

[@HogTide_Rising]

Great video. Excellent information well presented!

[@ralphcardinal2688]

What a great intro! low key and straight to the point. Thanks

[@vince4316]

Subs are climbing brother!!

[@JKevinWilson]

You have really upped your presentation and narration skills.

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Thanks

[@mcar-man1751]

Great information as usual. We will be out there in June. Have most of our route planned but always leave room for some "make it up as we go".

[@SirWilliamGoes]

You’ll love it out here it’s awesome

[@carlajohnson5447]

Great job. Enjoyed it. Go Kristi.

[@dudenadog3493]

Your video is awesome. Just an FYI… Canyon lands doesn’t allow “Pets”. However if your pooch is a “service dog” they cannot prohibit you and your dog from entering the park. It’s federally illegal. ADA. 2 Questions can be asked if it’s not obvious. *Is it a service dog? *Does the dog perform a specific task related to your condition? “Yes and Yes”. Anything more is illegal. ADA. your dog doesn’t need to advertise “service dog”. You can buy those on Amazon. Just be a responsible/respectful dog owner. There is no federal or state agency that certifies “service dogs”. Jurisdictions may have policies, but not law. I understand you might not be able to say that in your video, however I can in comments.🐕 Hope this helps

[@dudenadog3493]

Funny “Dudenadog” are in Moab now! Feb 21… Weather is mild, but rain/snow rolling in, so Ziggy n I are in a motel tonight… A bunch of canyon lands is closed due to weather, sooo we are heading to Mexican Hat tomorrow. Stealthy modified Tacoma… If the weathers sucks, moving on to AZ… Following the breeze. You recommend Mexican Hat! Home base, Englewood CO. Just a Dudenadog

[@rayt8157]

Good job Cristy

[@harvmac69]

Duude! What a cool video!! Thanks for all the Gaia info!!

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Thanks.

[@BirdDogOffRoadAdventures]

It was great running into you (multiple times) while in Moab a couple weeks ago. Great video!

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Yeah man you too. Thanks.

[@billfelton1273]

Hey Man thanks for the advice and instruction, beautiful place You Gotta Love It 🐟

[@Afrojeeper1701]

Great video..I was following along on my Ipad and downloaded some trails..You made it easy..

[@TXH1138]

Thanks for the GAIA tutorial. I plan on using your code for the discount.

[@suaspontenun7752]

I subscribed….. if for no other reason (there are plenty) than the “subscribe” button license plate!!!!

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Awesome!!!! Thanks;!

[@MrGspringer]

Great video, thank you

[@TexaSteven]

Really appreciated this video and looking forward to more future videos about route planning.. you two stay safe and enjoy your travels.

[@Flyingpigadventures]

I still don't understand how you find the trails( the gpx file to download where do you find those at.) I was under the impression that off road trails would already be saved into the gaia cloud that people have saved.

[@SirWilliamGoes]

The way that I find them is how I said in the video, looking at the map, utilizing layers primarily the new Overland Layer and I explore the various roads through public land areas. You can also do some research in various different ways online like forums and such and people will share the GPX they have recorded and tracked. Then there are apps available that take all the guess work, research and exploring out of it and just show you trails. Those apps are Trails Off-Road and OnX. Thanks for watching, hope this helps

[@overthehillandoverthemount2925]

So William this video is awesome very well done.

[@SirWilliamGoes]

[@billraleigh4529]

[@OverlandUncharted]

Great video man! Killing it!

[@OverlandGeneration]

Epic country! Nice informative video!

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Man out heres like a whole other world. It’s amazing

[@ToyotaandDodgeGarage]

Perfection! Thank you for that help!

[@cobracommander2885]

Awesome vid

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Thanks

[@patrickcaverly6748]

what size tires are you running ? thank you !

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Stock size

[@ivybrooks7963]

This is a great video, thanks! How does this process change if we don’t have a vehicle as capable as yours? We are going to be traveling in a Subaru. Are there descriptions on the motor vehicle trails on the Gaia program so people can know if the vehicle can handle it or not?

[@SirWilliamGoes]

There are some descriptions depending on the map layers you use but You will have to use your discretion most of the time. Many trails out west will have signs that say something along the lines of high clearance 4x4 required

[@ivybrooks7963]

@@SirWilliamGoes thank you kindly!

[@allbearsaregay9806]

I strongly suggest you not only take care of the land but yourself as well.

[@nofishproductions4379]

Great video man. Question: Do you ever regret not having a winch? I'm currently building my rig and just can't decide if I should add that expense.

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Yes there have been a few times. The expense is the main reason I dont have one. Also I think i would get too cocky and push her even harder than I do now!!

[@Ghanim.M]

Thank you for putting this video together. Quick question, I just installed the Gaia basic and it seems like I can't download the maps unless I subscribe to their premium subscription. Has anyone experienced this or is this happening because I'm using the Canada Gaia app?

[@SirWilliamGoes]

You will need the premium version to download maps. In the description is a discount that knocks a good portion of the price off.

[@heathersmith5237]

Ok, I have gaia gps on my iPhone, and my interface doesn't look anything like yours in this video of three years ago. I don't have ANY of the menu items on the left. This is a VERY complicated program. I don't agree that I'll "still be able to figure it out pretty easily." Not easy to figure out at all. I've already watched another video on this too. And referenced a website. Oh, I see. The interface above is from the WEBSITE, not the app.

[@massbassbros562]

Sweet very helpful

[@kyleross283]

Is there a link for that gpx files and instructions how to get it on gaia

[@SirWilliamGoes]

What you mean? I explain the entire process for everything in the video

[@TylerHarney]

Go to the site shown at 8:23. There will be the download link there.

[@therealgeronimo1127]

Great video!!! Do you know if they changed the MVUM map to Roads and trails? For some reason I can’t find the MVUM map. The road and trails map looks pretty similar just area I’m looking has a few more colors. Any help would be much appreciated. Keep the videos coming!

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Not that Im aware of. Its a layer on a map vs being a map itself and you can only do some layers on the premium version

[@scotth364]

A battery powered chain saw (I have an Ego) would have cleared those trees

[@SirWilliamGoes]

Yeah I need to start carrying one

[@OdySlim]

You are lucky to have such a fine Princess. Regards from Ody Slim

[@SirWilliamGoes]

The luckiest

[@porkchop94]

First 😊👍
