Overlanding the Georgia Traverse

[@RuggedRedRubicon]

You guys always deliver great content. No BS, just great video of the trails. My favorite overlanding channel on KZbin. Keep up the good work!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thank you for the compliment and following along.

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Coddiwomple Overland. Bill and Deb y'all always know how to show how beautiful and magnificent the places y'all visit really are.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thank you!

[@blueduster74]

Love your Heeler. Ours is mostly dark grey, black and brown. Easily the best dog I’ve ever had. So dang smart. Trying to get him over being a nervous travel companion though.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Aspen is ours. He is extremely intelligent and loves to travel but thinks he needs to guard everyone Soooo, let the barking begin. 😂

[@FiveAngelsOutdoor]

I look forward to hitting this eastern half of the Traverse. So many awesome spots to hit in Northern Georgia. Each one of your videos is like a future planning session for us :)

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Great! Thanks for watching!

Matt again another masterpiece u are the best at turning things around with ur kind words and positive attitude sir. Thank you for your friendship and support!

@@CoddiwompleOverland we also love your videos but this comment was meant for Simply Must Go’s last upload that was mistakenly taken down and somehow YT moved it to your video 🤷‍♂️

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks

[@TrailTape]

Great video! I love how your dog is riding on your shoulder at 32:38

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks, that is one of his favorite places to ride.

[@dhilt00]

Loved seeing New Hampshire syrup in this video (my home state). If you need more, let me know. Love your channel. Keep it up. 🙂

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks! That is the best syrup.

[@outdoorobservations]

Great video. We love the traverse. Someone is getting pretty handy at flying that avata. Nice work.!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks!

[@615Adventure]

Looking at taking our family vacation in the blue ridge mountains this fall. Would love to hit some of the traverse while down there. Thanks for the video to help me plan.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

We love the Blue Ridge area and the Traverse.

[@mikemcdonald5147]

pretty jeeps wish I had one. thanks for sharing the video

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks! And thanks for watching.

[@timvictor5988]

Excellent video! Like it when Ms. Deb shows her culinary skills. Haven't been in Georgia too often, just on the "I". Thanks guys!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks for following along. Deb keeps us fed well.

[@FarReachVoyages]

Very nice episode. Some of your best editing I think.

Your welcome! Thanks for watching.

[@the_feral_backpacker]

Looks like it was a great trip!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

It was a blast! See you all at MOORE.

[@404standup]

great video! would be helpful next time if you showed a map with your routes. thanks!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks, we will try to add that

[@grandeoverland6787]

Never visited Georgia before, but from what I just saw, doing it via 4x4 is a great option. Very cool video.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks, it's a beautiful and fun area to visit.

[@blueduster74]

Looking forward to doing this later this year. Thinking October after we get back from Moab.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

That would be a beautiful time.

[@blueduster74]

@@CoddiwompleOverland definitely. We went to Helen last October. Gorgeous.

[@carvingupthetrails7288]

We're about to hit the trail tomorrow and go west to east as well. Can't wait to see what the trail has on store!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Awesome! Have fun.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thank you!

[@zmashley]

What type of truck tent is that? I love how its in the bed.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

It is a Skinny Guy Camper

[@DrewJ79]

Nice video I really enjoyed it. It looks to be pretty tame compared to a lot of other overlanding trails. Can I do it in a stock F-150 4x4 with AT tires?

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks. Yes you can do this in your rig

[@sherrytavis1939]

At 1951, can you advise where on the trail this was located. We are planning a trip and I would love to see this giant dragon egg. 😊😊

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

I'm not sure right off hand. I would have to go back and look at the map.

[@oldmanoldtruck]

Great video! Love seeing places that I know.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks for following along.

[@JordanPattersonM]

Good video

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thank you!

[@oswaldopacheco9582]

Amazing video, I've been to some places you've been following your videos, but could you help me with the coordinates of a primitive place? I'm going from Nashville to Georgia Traverse and I arrive at night to explore the next day, thanks!!!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

[@mikebryant8082]

Are you guys from Georgia? Love the video!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

We are from Eastern Ky. Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@SimplyMustGo]

I’m leaving for the Traverse in the morning! Also starting in Dalton heading towards SC so this is perfect!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

It’s a great trip!

[@waterandlandadventures4319]

Excellent drone flying. How do you not hit limbs? Is the obstacle avoidance that good? Which drone do you have? Nice video.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

I fly the DJI Avata in the woods, It does not have obstacle avoidance. And the DJI Mavic (has avoidance) for the more open cinematic shots.

[@SpiritedWrenchers]

Thanks for sharing the trip. We just added The Traverse to our list as we venture out of the KY/OH area. Two questions. We have friends that have a stock 4Runner and based on this video, the Eastern route looks like one that they could easily traverse through. Is that accurate? 2: Were the spots yall camped all dispersed, or were they pay spots?

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

A stock 4Runner will have no problems at all on any part of the Traverse. All of the spots that we camped were dispersed. There are dozens of dispersed sites in that area

[@SpiritedWrenchers]

@@CoddiwompleOverland thank you!

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Your welcome!

[@NoExcusesOverland]

Great video, I see you had the skinny guy on in this video. I watched your video about the pros and cons of the camper. We are in the process of picking one up for our gladiator and wanted to ask you, we are more or less weekend worrier campers, maybe go out 5-7 days at a time a couple times a year, would this camper be good for that purpose? Thank you for your help with this

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

With the serious lack of storage, I would not recommend it for trips of that length of time

[@NoExcusesOverland]

@@CoddiwompleOverland thanks for the info, I also have the Decked system, would that help with the lack of storage inside?

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

The decked would be the only storage that you will have

[@NoExcusesOverland]

@@CoddiwompleOverland one last question, was the tent quality good? Thank you for the information, we are wanting to everything in line before we pull the trigger.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

@NoExcusesOverland ours was the first production model. We did have some leaks around the bed. They may have solved that issue

[@OverHillOffroad]

I wish these trails had harder wheeling. You can basically do these trails in a Prius.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

👍

[@FahimibnDawud]

Aren't they considered overlanding trails though?

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Yes

[@1996Gtalum]

I live in Ga and just found out about these forestry trails. Looks like a lot of fun. Great video. I have a stock Chevy Silverado z-71. Do you think I’d have any problems with it? Are there decent access to towns along the way for gas, or do you think I need to bring a can or two? Thanks

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

You would be fine. There are plenty of towns along the way.

[@Hoont93]

Awesome video would love to do this trip, I noticed a familiar sound on your mojave with the 2.5s shocks in action. Any remedy to it mine make the same noise in the rear.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

The squeak on ours is from the air bags.

[@marshallnorth3312]

Just FYI that's jacks river. It's not conasauga river until after it joins near the snorkeling hole and that water fall near the river is private property and I have personally witnessed the owner having nails in boards hiding in the mud holes trying to keep people our of there.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Thanks for the info

[@FXIIBeaver]

He should post no trespassing signs. Otherwise that is highly illegal.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

Agree.

[@raymondclark1785]

Looks like fun but i wouldn't want to meet someone coming the other way on some of those stretchs :( My GPS took my class c on an 11 mile short cut over a Virginia mountain on a 1 lane gravel road and if I'd met anyone there was no place to pull off.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

The roads are narrow.

[@dougstdig]

Another great video. Can you shed some light on the specs related to the tires and wheels between the two JT’s please? It appears the Grey JT is running less backspacing and / or a slightly narrower tire.

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

They are both running Cooper STT Pro 37x13.50 r17. The black JT is running-38 offset wheels while the gray JT is running 0 offset

[@danieljgay]

@@CoddiwompleOverland any lift? And curious did either of you regear?

[@CoddiwompleOverland]

No, they are both 4.10

[@danieljgay]

@@CoddiwompleOverland stock suspension?

Both have Clayton Overland Plus 3.5

ive been working up north of Atlanta, and driving my jeep up there so that on the weekends I can explore, beautiful country! What canopy with tent is that? I have a smartcap with tuff stuff alpha on my gladiator but want something a little lower profile

Is the Traverse safe to do alone (me wife and dog) ? Many hard obstacles? Looking to do some of it soon.

Safe for everyone. What are you driving
