Is it worth the drive? Tread Lightly Trail in FL, Jeep Badge of Honor - "Wonderous Whereabouts Ep.4"

[@GRUNTOUTDOORS20]

This trail is on my to do list. Thanks for the great video!

[@FMCOverland]

I think the wife had a little to much fun with the skinny pedal 🤣

[@NotLost]

Yep, didn't even bother to put this on my route - too far from PA, but the speed bumps reminded me of a trip to the OBX and north of Corolla. Good times! That's why we own Jeeps right - smiles per hour!!

We just happened to be in the area visiting friends

@@FMCOverland Ah, win, win!

[@DownSouth_Adventures]

There’s a whole lotta hotness in this video! Great job guys!

[@FMCOverland]

Thanks guys, it was a fun day trip

[@coloradomallcrawlers]

Cool vid! I went to the University of Florida and wheeled all over ONF. It’s gets really fun in a rainstorm and at least there use to be some fun offshoots (I used paper maps back then). I got a 2004 Rubicon stuck there lol.

[@FMCOverland]

Thanks, rain always makes things a little more fun :) we would like to get back down that way this winter.

I am heading down to Florida from GA to do this trail later this year, I cant wait. I have been doing the Georgia Traverse Trail in north Georgia mountains, but this will be my first Badge of Honor trail. I am new to the Badge of Honor program, where do you get the badges? I am signed up for the app already

[@FMCOverland]

Sorry for the late response, all you have to do is check in with the app and boom it's done 😁

[@FMCOverland]

[@FMCOverland]

It sure is!

[@real_teddy_b]

Buddy…that bump stop on that drive by said “ughhhhhh!” Gonna need some hydraulic bump stops!

[@FMCOverland]

That's what happens when I let Meredith drive! Haha, she goes full send!

[@kimandian9282]

Did you do the full trail? If so, how long did it take you?

[@FMCOverland]

You can do it in a day, but we spent an extra day just goofing off

[@kimandian9282]

@@FMCOverland I hear you. Thanks!

[@cliffdodson9409]

How long does it take to do the trail?

[@FMCOverland]

There are multiple trails, we spent the day there exploring.

[@wordgiesworld5483]

North and south is a combined 81 miles. We did the north half a couple weeks ago and were out there about 7 hours. That was with seven Jeeps, several short stops to clear downed trees and large brush off the trail, a stop for lunch and a detour around a huge water hazard.

Where can i find a trail map

[@FMCOverland]

You can find one on Trails Offroad www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/4962-tread-lightly-four-wheel-drive-way

[@sarge502jeep]

Having just did the Southern half of the Tread Lightly I'd say its definitely not worth planning a trip solely for it. Glad I didn't. I had an excuse going to Orlando for my sons AAU tournament so stopped since it wasn't too far out of the way. But having came from KY otherwise it's not worth it. Nothing technical which I expected considering floridas flat elevation. Sand does get deep in areas. But nothing I didn't get out of in 4L. I didn't even air down. Good place to get out and get dirty but definitely wouldn't do it again. The side trails I stayed to a minimum to avoid pinstripes. Wasn't going to risk paint damage for a trail system of this simple of a rating. I did upload a video of my experience though.

[@FMCOverland]

Agree, we were down in Orlando visiting freinds, and yeah the side trails are rough on the paint for sure, I think if you are within a few hours of this place its worth a go for the day to have a little fun.

Blue Falcon 2.0 is a lot better that Papa Smurf.
