Overlanding The Grand Canyon

[@todd6888]

Love how your positive about the weaknesses of the Bronco. There is no perfect truck and although the Bronco is awesome out of the box for off roading, there are some challenges with long overland adventures. The platform is awesome and a lot of companies are seeing the potential. A lot of new cool accessories are just over the horizon. The new Tundra isn't the best off road overlanding vehicle out of the box, but the potential is insane and if built right would make it a beast! These are my two favorite trucks and glad to see you adventuring together. Personally I can't wait till I can get my hands on the Tundra Trd Pro.

[@tpseeker3367]

Gotta love those Ever been here before moments. Gotta say Justin it doesn't matter if you're driving a Bronco the jeep or even a friggin Yugo I'd still follow you along your Adventures. Your videography, editing, audio & especially music editing is Top Notch. Keep up the Great Work.

[@jrodriguez8216]

Justin, The Parashant valley monument you were in is very beautiful. A stop at the Bar Ten Ranch on the way to the rim would have been nice for you all, great people there. FYI national park service information gives the Lava rocks you saw may “actually predate the Grand Canyon itself that is 5.3 million years old”. You’re right the earth is very interesting place and we are just a small dot in the cycle of life here. I enjoyed your video since it reminded me of my one time visit there. Keep them coming.

Oh, you had me (1:50 in) shuttering with the idea of a drone flight in the dark while driving . Probably in chase mode with obstacle avoidance - but brave move with a high reward capture. Thanks for inspiring once again I also like the collaboration between you and Rob, each a positive spirit make the most out of the adventure with reasonable expectations and flexibility galore

[@billwilliams4281]

Great video, keep up the good work. You, and Rob, always make Overlanding look so effortless (even though we all know hiccups are generally always encountered). As always, wonderful content!

[@admin_OutdoorEd]

Found your channel looking for Jeep videos about a year ago, stayed watching your videos because they are always entertaining and easy watching. Keep up the great content👍 Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@myerspaulsen]

The Timelapse was soooo good. Love your vids!

[@feromachines]

Can’t wait to hit some trails and amazing camp spots this year! Inspiring per usual, Justin

[@davidapetitti7399]

Great content , Bronco continues to look like a blast to drive and can’t beat those views. Love the tent setup as well.

[@DngleBryHndPmp]

These videos are awesome and help me wait out getting my BL Bronco. I'm based out of SLC too, should plan a meetup sometime!

[@bluecruiser2019]

Great Video! Whitmore Point is one of our favorite spots!! If you spend enough time on the Arizona Strip you will find some amazing remote places and amazing views. Bring extra fuel and clear your calendar, you won't want to leave!!

[@mestallbaumer]

I am really enjoying your Bronco Content.

[@BillandKelleyAdventures]

I (Kelley) have been enjoying watching your adventures. I hope in the next few years to upgrade to the Bronco or even the new 4Runner when they update the outside. I have a 2017 4runner TRD pro now and love it. My son worked for Ford a little bit and got to out to the Bronco drive thing they had. He was very impressed. I just wish they weren't so hard to get and the price here in Alabama has been $20,000 over MSRP.

[@stevedesantolo6794]

Thank you very much for discussing the mileage topic. I like your approach; use it, don't wait for a solution. Cool outlook too

[@Venture2Roam]

Really enjoyed this one Justin.

[@RevereOverland]

"I've left you a lot of room" *Scooches in nice and close*

[@willay747]

Great Video! The drone adds some nice perspective!

[@tmcnicho]

I can only imagine the coordination it takes to get these drone shots lined up :O Is there some magic to it?

[@JustinBMcBride]

That’s a Rob thing. He kills it.

[@MoveAlongAdventures]

Well definitely enjoyed I think a trip to the grand canyon is in my future thanks for your video!

[@robertwhitemoto]

Some impressive drone speed! Ha your buddy was being dusted the entire video.

[@ririlan2137]

surprisingly, the school is well preserved. Kind of things I like to see when traveling :))

[@thepavementendsnow1901]

Awesome…👍 I’ll be passing right by you mid May, on my way to Moab, Hanksville, Kanab, Death Valley and back home! 🇨🇦 I can’t wait, I’ve had to postpone this for 3 years!!! ☹️ 🐴🐴🥌🤟

[@cruznaround_4806]

if only these were released in AUS id love to own one! great build mate

[@jesabail]

You can use the watch to measure decibels for the road noise

[@RicochetJP]

Did you see much wildlife near and around that schoolhouse area?

[@paulburns6856]

Link to your heating blanket you used?

[@maximumoverland]

What are y’all doing at the Grand Canyon? I’m busy up here rolling my offroad trailer at the top of Bear Ears 😂 !

[@2Wheelin4Life]

Time for the pickup to get a different set of tires!

[@JustinBMcBride]

Haha! Rob knows. Trust me.

[@RevereOverland]

37s are in the mail 😉

[@verman4032]

What are the coordinates for that place?

[@dezmondhunt2594]

I know other's have asked, but I didn't see a answer. Do you have the coordinates for some of the camp sites? Also, did you have to get a backcountry permit?? Thanks for the great videos!

[@mikedsobe]

Are you going to the Bronco Safari in Moab?

[@KOLBYWAN_KENOBI]

coordinates for that grand canyon camp spot?

[@aaron036895]

What electric blanket do you use? Need one to help with the comfort side of camping for my girlfriend

[@stevobevo91]

What kind of camera do you use for the vlogging and time lapses?

[@PHOENIXOVERLAND]

What bag were you using for your toiletry stuff?

[@PHOENIXOVERLAND]

I think I found it. Hedgehog Toiletry Roll by Step22 if anyone else was wondering

[@1217heaven]

Do you have a link to the heated blanket you used? Also what did you use to power it up?

[@samcook2775]

Just picked up a Superlite a few weeks ago for my ZR2 Bison, what heated blanket/battery combo worked for winter camping?

[@JustinBMcBride]

That’s the only way I winter camp!

[@gabbymadsen7260]

So you have the leveling shelf... ever think of putting a fuel bladder under that that feeds into the main tank?

[@FreedomToRoam86]

Wind fairing for the noise might help tent noise

[@JustinBMcBride]

Already working on a solution

[@JohnHMoore]

The place that you tried to get to but didn't was Toroweap/Tuweep -- right? What was the place that you did get to?

[@suzysmith4661]

I just found your channel and I absolutely love it! How do get the drone footage while you are driving? I just bought a Jeep Gladiator and going to do a trip to Death Valley in a couple of weeks. I love your setup and I’m looking at different RTT. :-)

[@erok080]

Do you have a name/ping on OnX for the camping spot/trail? Heading to Grand Canyon in a week.

[@Svrrn]

My new found therapy.

[@gffmann]

Quick question, what is the height of your vehicle with the rooftop tent while it’s closed. Just wondering if I get one if I can fit in the underground

[@ThomasLuley]

nice video, but I was hoping you would go to Toroweap, the most spectacular Grand Canyon overlook

[@JustinBMcBride]

That’s where we were trying to get to. Next time when the trails are better.

[@gabbymadsen7260]

You mentioned pack racks or trail racks? I'm thinking those were the side racks on the Jeep... do you have a link to the fabricator so we can follow them?

[@JustinBMcBride]

Look up TrailRax - they’re going to have all kinds of goodies for the Bronco.

[@scottfwalter]

How did you power your electric blanket? Jackery or something like that?

[@JustinBMcBride]

Goal Zero Yeti 200.

[@BrandonBaecker]

How are you fitting a decent padlock into those Maxtrax pins? I can only seem to fit wimpy TSA locks that aren't worth using. Could you tell me which lock you got to fit in there?

[@JustinBMcBride]

I found one at the grocery store in Moab.

[@mark-di5pf]

cool trailer!

[@justinjeffries1554]

Has the wider stance been an issue? I really wanted a bronco until I saw one in person and now I'm on the fence, those things sit MASSIVE

[@JustinBMcBride]

Not an issue at all.

[@BrooklynNY1979]

Awesome video Justin thank you! Quick question, will an awning fit on the Bronco roof rack? I'm getting my hands on a black 2 door Badlands and I have a tent like your slim CVT but I don't see how an awning would fit. Thanks again bro!

[@Macsreptilesandmore]

This just in… from Jason… so I’m thinking pony express challenge with new bronco?!? Any plans for an auxiliary tank??? 🧐🤔

[@JustinBMcBride]

I don’t foresee my doing an auxiliary fuel tank ever again. The convenience doesn’t outweigh the problems that come with having one. I have thought about doing the Pony again, but I have new things I want to explore. Places I haven’t been before that I think the Bronco will be a great companion for.

[@smt6556]

The Arizona Strip has endless camping possibilities. I don't think that Whitmore Point is in the Grand Canyon National Park boundaries. You could have flown the drone. Fuel range is critical for overlanding. I enjoy watching .

[@davidw1292]

I noticed city lights down below in the distance while you were setting up camp at night at the beginning of the video..which town were you over looking?

[@JustinBMcBride]

This was just South of St. George Utah.

[@richard031074]

Really like the Heretic amber light bar on the mod bumper; does this impede the front camera view at all? Keep up the great vids; presently waiting patiently for my 4dr Badlands, 2.7L, Lux W/ Sasquatch (although hoping for news tomorrow on Raptor upgrade eligibility) and really like the Heretic products for the Bronco

[@JustinBMcBride]

They’re awesome! It doesn’t impede the front camera at all. Nothing like a winch.

[@maceyjohnson6101]

When did you take this trip to Whitmore? I would like to do this trail really soon depending on the conditions..

[@JustinBMcBride]

Mid-January

[@maceyjohnson6101]

@@JustinBMcBride Thank You!

[@4Whopper]

What’s the lowest temperature you have slept in the GFC?

[@JustinBMcBride]

Mid-teens. Pretty cold, but with the right layers and venting it works really well.

[@jasonno]

@@JustinBMcBride what electric blanket are you using? And I’m assuming it’s plugged into your external battery.

[@jasjas7232]

hoping gofast brings back that tent

[@jerryfornarotto7498]

Can you please talk about tires.

[@billj5645]

You can probably figure that slow crawling on a technical trail will get you below 10mpg.

[@donnieroebuck6590]

If you haven't already, check out JCR Offroad for a great rear bumper system...

[@mikev4x4]

This is the second time I see Justin bail on a trip/trail half way through...

[@JustinBMcBride]

I’m not here to ruin trails with ruts - and Rob’s Tundra was struggling with the street tires and trailer.

[@JTube571]

Has anyone mentioned that this is actually the North rim of the Grand Canyon? 😅

[@JustinBMcBride]

Hahaha! You’re 100% right. My brain is clearly broken.

[@JTube571]

@@JustinBMcBride all good. I came for South rim and was like, wait. 🤔
