Great video and awesome quality. 👌 Gotta carry that water out in that desert....Southern man. That climate will sneek up on you quick. Looking forward to see what's coming up next.

[@DestinationArkansas]

That place is epic!

[@Ddax-td7qy]

Only similar impact on me (70-year-old Californian) would beYosemite and Cave Creek Canyon, Portal, Az. Thanks for the vicarious thrills!

[@khalidabed2016]

Many thanks to all of you Khalid Abed from Iraq

[@JCreole]

11:01 Cool I wanted to see this hike you did from TrailRecon’s video 👍

[@user-sg1uf8mo6i]

Respect!! Way to adventure!

[@LTBRAD06]

Getting lost in nature nice hike you made it an adventure

[@BuccaneerOverland]

This has been your best video! Retiring next year and already have this marked on my GPS. Greetings from Florida.

[@lindanellis7326]

I watched your adventure in the Canyonlands that was spectacular beautiful photos congratulations in walking up the mountain I miss that I used to do that camping in Nevada a lot of walking in the mountains and digging for precious stones now I can watch your guys it brings back a lot of wonderful memories. I always couldn't wait to get out it always brought me peace realignment so I was able to go back to work, and carry my adventures with me. Now I go out and do a lot of Photography work of landscape and sunsets all around my area. Can't keep me indoors that's for sure thank you again hope to see more.

[@SamNetherton]

Great video! The music was a cool touch on the epic footage. Keep it up!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks! Will do!

[@hughwolfe1176]

Memories, that’s what it’s all about.

[@TammysTrailsNTravel]

Absolutely beautiful

[@Texasfinalboss831]

That hike you did matt….and you showed how far you were from camp just before you got all the way up, it’s like looking down on Telluride from the top of black bear pass! Correct me if you think I’m wrong, but it seemed pretty far!!!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

It was quite far. LOL. Not quite Telluride from Black Bear far.

[@SkylinersYeti]

Over the years we have made 3 trips to the Owyhee Country. It is such remote and beautiful area. In the past we have set up a basecamps and explored with our 4WD. We just acquired a trail capable travel trailer and next year will be planning more remote spike camps and exploring with the 4WD truck. A person and spend a lifetime exploring Eastern and Central Oregon back country.

[@WhiteOn209]

Maybe your best cinematography to date Matt - great job with the Mavic 3 Pro!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks!! I'm loving the new drone!

[@PittiesAndMore]

WOW!!! I am saving this video for my future over-landing adventures. 🤙

[@andrewstocker7457]

Epic landscape... know what Matt's next purchase might be... one of those amazon type delivery drones...or similar, that has a payload capacity of a couple of pounds, to deliver snacks or water or meds , etc. LOL... great video thank you for sharing your continued adventures.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

I was thinking a base jumping parachute. LOL

[@manologocho]

Simple amazing 🤩😍❤️ the quality of this video is awesome thanks for sharing I travel with you guys 😢 cheers from Merida Venezuela love your channel ❤

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@jp52hawk]

So good to be back and able to watch your content on the TV. Three weeks, staying in the hospital is to long. Back surgery went south, been rough 3 weeks

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

So glad you're back and I hope you recover quickly!!

[@jp52hawk]

Omg the sunset at the end was amazing 👏 ❤❤❤❤❤

[@markperza384]

What a great video, Thanks for sharing...

[@ridermanpatel4112]

Great views bro , you made the video entertaining with all the heavy breathing 😂

[@jamesstein5952]

Tks for sharing... Great hike..Kool Place..

[@straylineoutdoors5259]

Bucket list. Amazing views and great hike. Thanks for sharing. ❤

[@jimstoneman1732]

Hmmm... That's about the same distance from SoCal as it was to go to OEX PNW, a fairly long 2 day drive. Time to start making plans! Good to meet you, Kara and Goose by the way! Hopefully you eventually got over catching me talking with Rob! 😁

[@matt75177]

So awesome to see both KZbinrs hooking up. I follow both of you.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@RJ-eg7bh]

The footage of the mustangs is absolutely beautiful

[@JohnBowen-fe3jb]

Bravo, Matt! Excellent video.

[@thejohnhend]

You need a papoos carrier for Goose!

[@Draevon68]

Never would have imagined that Oregon would look like that. Beautiful.

[@punktexas]

This is one of your best videos. Loved how y'all slowed things down in this one. That hike ,,, WOW !

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much!

[@RJ-eg7bh]

The drone footage accompanied by the music at the opening of this video is as moving as a beautiful Hollywood made documentary; very fine fim making 👍🏻

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Wow, thank you!

[@mattlewandowski73]

wish I could give you two thumbs up JUST for conquering your hill climb. The red face, the soaked shirt... It was clear the effort that went into it, so you have something to take pride in.

[@TimRoyalPastortim]

Absolutely beautiful footage from one of my favorite spots! The best part is how few people visit!

[@andygoodson2399]

I don't comment on videos very often, but I just have to say: your drone work is just stellar! That footage of Leslie Gulch is just unbelievable. Great job!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much!!

[@MrJoelinq77]

Way to go Matt!! that was an epic hike you made. You're absolutely right. Make memories.

[@14rhatch]

Matt, that 1st drone shot going into the canyon was incredible. Awesome job 👏 👍

[@Otownoverland]

Bring water every time!!

[@RJ-eg7bh]

Matt, your hike was awesome!! I live 40 minutes from the Owyhees, i loved this video but am a little ashamed that i am sitting on the couch living vicariously through your adventures!! Awesome bideo 👍🏻

[@edschneider1780]

15:57 Epic hike and great friends! Also Driving into the gulch is so Incredible!!

[@leftystrat62]

As someone who rock climbed for many years and enjoys a challenge like you ran into on your hike, I would say you all made the right decision to not down climb that if that's not your 'jam'. Why chance getting hurt when you have that great trip ahead of you. Awesome scramble through that notch -it was great to see. I've been watching you guys for years and this is my favorite video of yours to date. Great job with putting it all together, music, the whole shabang :) cheers

[@Coloradohighcountrywheelin]

That a baby👏. Great job scaling that mountain 😊

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks 👍

[@covewater]

That was an awesome video and an amazing campsite! And that hike you did was crazy! So cool.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much!

[@richarddeleon4786]

​@@OzarkOverlandAdventuresWHERE IS THIS? OREGON

[@The_Red_Off_Road]

You’ve got a new subscriber in Middle TN. I just bought a 2007 JK 2dr. I’ve been browsing some channels for overlanding and I really dig this one. Great music. Great photography. And great info! Hope to see you on the trail one day.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@JohnJans83]

Absolutely some beautiful video.

[@67wildwolf]

so cool. Great job on the hike Mat...I would love to have done that but ankle surgery has me sidelined for a few months( including rehab). Makes me want to revisit my youth...I summered in Oregon growing up. My grandparents lived in Eugene. We explored the state and the Owyhee's is one of my favorite places.

[@trackexplore]

I clicked the like button in the first seconds of the video. As I know it will be another epic episode. Outstanding effort doing that hike to. I take my hat off to you.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Much appreciated!

[@overlandingsmith]

Wow what an amazing scenery. A real overlanders paradise. Great video 😍😎

[@jakethesnake9033]

[@trailmixsrc]

What an awesome tour! The views were incredible! ❤ Need more screen time with Cara and her Defender. Nice scale driving as you dropped into the wash. 😂👍🏼👊🏼✌🏼

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Cara drives the pink the Jeep. Danielle drives the Defender.

[@gretchen_jku2051]

Very cool guys and gals!

[@jamesandamysroadtripadvent6104]

Enjoyed the content. Congrats on making the hike . Can’t wait to see another video soon .

[@castironbackroads1447]

I had never heard of the Owyhees before seeing this series of videos. Watched the first in awe and was equally blown away by the second. Definitely on my bucket list!! Breathtaking, Marvelous, Wonderous, Other-worldly!! Great drone flying too!!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@AmericanSouthDesigns]

That's wild! Looks so much smaller from a distance!

[@RJ-eg7bh]

Beware, those mormon crickets will get into your things and hitch a ride home with you, we have had a couple on our utv trailer when we loaded up to go home from silver city, thankfully, they fell off on the drive home. When we got home , 2 cicadas flew off the trailer and into the trees, where they lived all summer!!!

[@EigerSummitOffroad]

What an accomplishment that climb was. Great stuff Matt!

[@Golden-69]

Can't stop at the 5-yard line... drone some water up to you.

[@carolbrucecollett]

Wow!! Amazing landscape. Looks like such a fun trip.

[@tomassanesson902]

Awesome epik trail and video

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks! 👍

[@JustinCaseWages]

Can’t believe you kept climbing! Good for you! That was great.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks!

[@FreedomToRoam86]

Absolutely gorgeous video. Your prettiest video yet, and plenty of good Jeep action, too. That new camera and your drone catches the color tones so darn nice. That area is definitely on my list to go next year!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks!!

[@Mike-n-Murf]

Good job Matt. I needed the inspiration. Hope you and the crew had a great trip!

[@Ddax-td7qy]

In Mike Hanley's book "Owyhee Trails," he recounts that the word "Owyhee" actually is a 19th-Century expedition guess at spelling of Hawaii. A couple of "Kanakas" sent down into the canyon never returned, so named in their honor.

[@Jhawkkat]

I loved the drone footage. I also enjoyed going along on your sole hike.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Awesome, thank you!

[@RJ-eg7bh]

Matt & Cara, i watch your channel as well as Brad’s, Will’s and Rob’s channels: yours is quickly becoming my favorite with this video: your combination of beautiful music accompanying gorgeous drone footage is on the level of a well made documentary. You have become fine film makers. I have just sold my 2020 JL Wrangler and am looking forward to more of your beautiful videos so i can overland vacariously through your adventures. Check out the north Idaho panhandle , it’s gorgeous

[@RJ-eg7bh]

I love your channel !!! Love your references to God, love that Cara has quoted scripture and love that Cara is fulling engaged in wheeling and on the videos, not just brought along as the camp cook!! And GOOSE!! Goose is the star of your channel!! He’s such an easy going trooper!!!

[@SJ-EOR]

As you were climbing I kept hoping you didn’t find any rattle snakes which we do have in EOR. Stay awesome!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks!!

[@dharwood2727]

Yeah, I had the same thought.

[@RavensEyeOffroad]

Great Video! I have the same drone and was wondering what your recording settings were (d-log?) and how much color grading you did. :) looked great!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

I just shoot normal colors and rarely color grade unless something is off. I don't have time to deal with color grading a bunch of log files. LOL.

[@RavensEyeOffroad]

@OzarkOverlandAdventures yeah it can be a chore! Good to know though for me. The footage looked great! Thanks for the reply

[@RJ-eg7bh]

Those big black bugs in the road are called mormon crickets (im not sure why) i live in the Boise area, take the UTV to Silver City and the Owyhees: they love the heat and come out heavily in the summer, have also seen them on the road to atlanta, idaho, otherwise never see them in the valley

[@Texasfinalboss831]

😳 you have to have a license to operate a drone??? What? Shut the front door!!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

For commercial purposes, yes.

[@kloudfpv]

Wow that shot of you climbing up the rocks is heckin sweet. What focal length was that lens? Just bought our family's first Jeep. 21 Gladiator Sport, took down some trails here in Arkansas. It's been a blast, and I have you and your channel to blame for my getting a Jeep! :D Looking to def so some trail riding and camping. Love watching your videos. We are Little Rock area, if we ever get the chance to catch ya we'd love to say hi.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much!!

[@kloudfpv]

@@OzarkOverlandAdventures We love watching you and your wife doing videos! It really has inspired my GF and I to start doing this. since we bought our jeep just before the 4th of July, we have been out to a new place every single weekend, and we are loving it! As a younger couple, with 3 kids, and new to the jeeping/wheeling/overlanding world, we would love to see a new person friendly video from ya'll! (if you don't have one already) Maybe talk about some of the easier routes for new people in Arkansas, do's, and don't(s) maybe some of the obvious stuff for us Millennials new to the life style. (not new to camping and what not, but when it comes to finding trails, navigating trails, choosing trails that are okay for your vehicle. groups/group rides. Maybe some things to look out for, or stay clear from. Help some of us beginners getting into it!

[@wildernessrecon]

That place is full of rattlers on that hike, you guys went off the trail the one to the lake is above you

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

We searched for rattlers and didn’t find any. 😢

[@mejkkg]

Still wondering why people refer to getting something on camera or recorded as getting something on film. Is there any film actually involved?

[@dhrtiwalter8670]

Is this a path safe for a solo traveler?

[@butchmilligan6118]

Great video’s. Do you mind if I ask what drone you use.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks! I'm using the new DJI Mavic 3 Pro now. This was my first trip with it.

[@butchmilligan6118]

@@OzarkOverlandAdventures just bought a DJI mini pro 3. Still learning but seems pretty good. My first drone. We are in the Ouachita’s today running around. Going to fly the drone a little. Safe travels.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

@@butchmilligan6118 that’s a great drone. It’s what my wife uses.

[@timmcnulty985]

Can you share a map to this area I will be in that area in late august.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

All of our GPS data is available to our Patreon supporters.

[@PrimitiveOverland]

That's not the Ozarks lol.

[@67wildwolf]

no it isn't that's one of the great places to explore. Once you've been your going back sooner or latter. There's something very magical about the Owyhee's

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

It's only a 30 hour drive from the Ozarks. 😂

[@davidk6668]

Why do people with rigs that have a trailer unhook their trailer at camp?

[@frenchie4wd]

Depends. In this situation, two things had occurred. 1) I had to raise it significantly to level it due to my tent being on top. When raised, I couldn’t access my rear tailgate area so I had to unhook to move forward to open that. And 2) We left camp to meet up with Brad and Regena while Danielle stayed behind. I didn’t want to take the trailer out again so we left it.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

What she said...

[@mybrilliantlife9476]

So is that in Oregon? That's all google maps could find

[@mybrilliantlife9476]

Ok wow, that just didn't look what I imagined Oregon looked like, wow

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Yep. Southeast Oregon

I fucking applaud you for that hike. I know it couldn't have been easy. I know i gave you shit a while back about not looking happy when you're on these journeys and recommended you get you testosterone levels checked. Which i still do. But FUCK YEAH MAN! You had a goal and you set out and accomplished it! I fucking love it! GOOD FOR YOU! i still hope you like into trt and pcylicibin! Lol fuck yeah dude you're amazing, you can do anything you want!
