[@txrunroutdoors]

You got some great footage from out there brother!!!! We gotta make it back out there ASAP. I'll try to get stuck again 😂

[@bfm_overland]

Yea we gotta get back out! That was just a weird moment lol

[@hawkesoutdoors]

nice #overland video

[@bfm_overland]

Thank you! I gotta get by your shop sometime!

[@garretthart13]

Went there today and couldn't find any of these trails, only thing we could find were the gravel park roads, mind updating the description with a link to the trails you used ?

[@bfm_overland]

Hey Garrett what gps system are you using?

[@garretthart13]

@@bfm_overland you name it, I'm running it. Gaia, onx, all trails, Garmin overlander, osmand etc

[@kemmick]

Awesome video, We have land right there about 10min from where you were camping. We are just getting into overlanding and went out on Sunday driving a lot of these roads and also ended up at Neches Bluff. Thanks for sharing.

[@bfm_overland]

Nice! Y’all are blessed to live in such a beautiful area, it doesn’t even feel like Texas out there. Welcome to the overlanding community lol how did you like the bluff ?

[@kemmick]

@@bfm_overland it was awesome. we did about 60 miles that day. nothing really "offroad" not sure where we can find that but it was quiet and only saw a couple cars the whole time.

[@bfm_overland]

@@kemmick that’s awesome, that’s what it’s all about. Exploring, and getting away from society, well at least for me lol we’re planning on going back this winter! Let the mesquitoes die down a bit

[@kemmick]

@@bfm_overland No doubt, we have land there but we live close to Houston. That land is our getaway but now its time to explore more of the country which is why we want to start overlanding. We have considered opening up our land to overlanders for night use but not sure if that will happen or not.

[@bfm_overland]

@@kemmick that would be sweet! Let me know, we can be your Guinea pigs lol

[@h0ot3r]

So DC has some trails you can drive? Good to know lol. We live not far and need some good trails. We just camp out or make day trips.

[@bfm_overland]

Whatsup Codie, yes we had fun. From what we gathered it would be more fun after a some rain lol play in the mud a bit

[@bfm_overland]

Thanks for watching! Anyone else ever been in a situation like that?? What did you do?

[@NickOverlandTX]

It was a great time!!!

[@bfm_overland]

Yea it was, too bad it was cut short

[@TheAmerican1963]

Can you post GPX files of this route ??

[@7150285]

Look up East Texas 450

[@user-oj4tb3oj9d]

Which route did you guys take through the woods. Looking into driving through this park on monday. Did you guys just take the route listed in OnX for the Davey Crockett National Forest Route? Cool video!

[@bfm_overland]

Thanks man! Yes we just followed onyx for the most part. There was a route we found off onyx that was cool.

[@bman251230]

Great video!!!! Where did you get that hat? its awesome!!!

[@bfm_overland]

Thanks man!! I got the hat on eBay, It’s one of my favorite hats lol

[@carlosochoa2346]

What’s up bro I recommend to do the Texas Traverse Trail. It’s like a 3 day trail run it’s on X off-road

[@bfm_overland]

Thanks man! We will look into it! I appreciate the info brotha

[@philgriswold2133]

I'm confused why the 4Runner got stuck and acted like it had two open diffs? Would the ATRAC not get him out or did he choose not to use it?

[@bfm_overland]

It was the weirdest thing, he had a center locker but rear off ground and just wouldn’t get out. We were all laughing because he’s taken that 4Runner through way worse!

[@philgriswold2133]

@@bfm_overland Thanks, that's interesting.

[@bfm_overland]

👍 thank you for watching

[@M_mags]

What trail was this?

[@bfm_overland]

They were some trails around the forest, no specific names. I am going to be making a Patreon soon so I can provide the coordinates to you all! Stay tuned…
