[@johncarballo8740]

Thanks for the video. I am planning on going this upcoming Saturday and have fun.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Have fun!

[@Daniel_Scott89]

I’m about to take my Forester Wilderness out there and conquer it haha. Looks fairly easy

[@DarksideOffRoad]

That’ll be a blast!

[@ehdeereotutar6843]

Did you do it already? A friend with an Outback Wilderness wants to try it

[@cccristol]

Loved the video. Plan on hitting that trail real soon.

[@ryanhill7399]

Is this a trail system Stock 4xe can handle?

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Absolutely.

[@ryanhill7399]

@@DarksideOffRoad excellent. How can i get in touch with you to discuss further?

[@dunezyota8151]

I passed you guys on the trail this day I have the little dark blue rav4 it was a pleasure to see you guys and the weather couldn’t have been any better. Cheers

[@DarksideOffRoad]

That’s awesome! Glad you found me 🤘

[@dunezyota8151]

I did a video also and you guys can be seen in the end of it 🤘

[@cynthiamcdowell-buchanan3550]

So, ok for stock? Wrangler 4xe. I did Flagpole at Dayton, VA stock. In the pouring rain.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Easy peasy! 👌

[@fierymongoose]

Dude, that looks like a fun little ride! So glad you made this video I will definitely be checking out that trail in my xterra.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Awesome! 🤙

[@jeepdoctv]

Awesome video! Was nice meeting you guys!!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah man! Say hi to Terrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyy for me! 🤣

[@KOTW.Adventures]

First time visiting your channel. Great video! Subscribed so I will be back!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Thanks for watching 🤘

[@MalarkeyTaylor]

A pleasure meeting you! Glad I could be part of the fun! Hopefully we can wheel again another time.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Heck yea! Looking forward to it 🤘

[@KOrgan0414]

Trail looks fun and fairly easy! Looking to take my stock 4x4 liberty out there sometime!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

You’ll love it 🙌

[@BadDrivers101]

Just got a gx460 needs to get a little dirty.

[@DirtRoadTherapy]

awesome dude! that was a great video and a super fun time. Sorry the Spool Bus had to bail and we left you hanging on Friday night campfire time. We were on track to be there just after dark but the Spoolie had other plans :-(

[@DarksideOffRoad]

It’s only better because of the extra camera man who didn’t have his XJ. Thanks for the shots 😉

[@GeefromBC]

Man you've been on more trips than I have. Keep at it Tim!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah but you’re about to hit that big one soon!

[@GeefromBC]

Haha more event expos than actual trails though LOL

[@clintbaxter3833]

How is this a badge of honor trail. I did it in a stock tj

[@PhatboyHD88]

My cousin and i stayed in spot 3 last year when we did the trail. It is 100% better going from south to north tho ,, way better

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah I could see climbing the first mountain being more fun than descending for sure. That campground up top is just so convenient though. 😅

[@redspain349]

Great video. Question can a power wagon complete the trail with out destroying the paint or body panels

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Thanks. I don’t remember there being any tight sections, but would suggest doing some searches for full size videos or blog posts.

[@madsammer]

When we're you there? I ran it Sunday. I will be at Rausch end of May

[@DarksideOffRoad]

We ran it Saturday morning on the 23rd before heading to WV.

[@xavior718]

Man I wanted to stop by there on my way back to PA from Tennessee to do exactly what you did but I was by myself and didn’t think it would’ve been a good idea. I should’ve just did it.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah I’d do this solo. It’s no big deal and also has a lot of traffic for help if needed

[@billybee4664]

I did the trail in a stock Hyundai Santa Cruz. Completed it, but not without a cost.

[@billveder1071]

It's a very easy trail but still fun, better than pavement.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Absolutely!

[@billcanter4288]

Great video. Always wanted to go 4wheeling, so I bought a 2011 4runner SR5. It has all terrain tires, but they are standard load tires. Will I be ok on this trail as a newbie with the standar load/p rated tires?

[@DarksideOffRoad]

I'm sure you could. This is a beginner trail. We saw a handful of stock 4Runners on the trail while we were out.

[@billcanter4288]

@@DarksideOffRoad I'm taking your word for it, going this Sunday. I showed my wife your comment... totally your fault if the tires fail.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

@@billcanter4288 love it 😜

[@VenturesofMJ]

Nice video, hey did you air down the tires? disconnected the sway bar? and go in 4H? I am taking my 2023 rubicon with XR on this trail. MY first jeep so wanted some advice

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah air down, 4H, disconnect. Mostly for comfort. Nothing tough on the trail.

[@VenturesofMJ]

@@DarksideOffRoad thanks man, and what PSI?

[@DarksideOffRoad]

@@VenturesofMJ I did 18

[@ronnierebhan229]

Easy, fun trail. I agree could definitely use more pull off spots, or maybe designate one way direction/traffic on certain days.

[@charlieintheregularfactory]

Looks like it would be a lot more fun and challenging after heavy rain

[@DarksideOffRoad]

I bet it would be slightly. It’s a real easy trail, but spraying some mud would def make it better 👌

[@jethroniusbronloii3028]

Holy traffic jams!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah with it being an easy trail, part of the ATV network, and a nice Saturday it def has some traffic. Everyone was good about giving space tho.

[@scottpetrie8707]

Good effort. Not gonna make epic content at Peter’s. My dads driveway is harder than that run. Subaru wagons get down that trail.

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yep definitely as green as it gets. Great for beginners and a quick stop.

[@DefiantOffroad]

I'd love to do a trail run with you guys some time!

[@jmftt]

Heading there soon, did you air down and disconnect sway bar? Was there any mobile service during the trail? Great vid thanks

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Yeah just for comfort and control. It’s an easy trail so it’s not necessary but makes the ride better.

[@thelonewrangler1008]

I've been thrashing TJ's for almost 20yrs now and I've never heard of this "badge of honor trail" stuff before. How long has this been a thing? Was it invented by Fiat to sell JKs and JLs to weekend warriors or does Jeep send you an actual badge of honor? I'd like to know more because I'm dumb and I'm sure I'm owed a few participation awards. Love your channel BTW, currently binging all your vids. As an east coaster myself you have documented a sweet selection of what our area has to offer and to that I genuinely say thank you. PS it doesn't look good when you complain about burnt aluminum and fused sand in a fire pit when you intentionally make all the trail ruts deeper like a lil kid stomping through a muddy puddle. Don't forget to tread lightly🤷

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Not sure how long badges have been around, but they certainly add a communal aspect to the “hobby” and provide some really great destinations 👌

[@MrVWwill]

I should get a badge of honor for watching this terrible video

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Congrats! Thanks for watching 😘
