Schnebly Hill Road Sedona Overlanding Camping Part 1

[@EnzoMoresi-mj8bc]

Just started DC'ing myself, just me and my staffy. I pull my 14' enclosed trailer w a lifted 4x4. It's now 4 years after you uploaded this and wanted to ask if you and your good looking family still do this. So far this winter (started this adventure in Sept) Ive had decent success in free camping north of the AZ Snowbowl along hwy 180 off those federal forest roads. But snow has started so Ive headed south and am now way down S near the Superstitions. It's a challenge finding ideal spots that give you decent cell coverage which is really my only MUST HAVE at this point. All others issues I make do and plan ahead - connectivity is really the only great unknown till you get on site. However Ive recently also noticed I may need to think about SAFETY as well. Questions - 1. do/did you use anything like an app or site that helps you plan ahead for phone/data use at your planned destination? 2. What are/were your thoughts or concerns if any as relates to SAFETY while out in the boondocks? Over the last 4 years we have opened our societal doors to all sorts of (in the millions) unsavory characters and based purely on what Ive experienced out here, I have upped my protective measures a bit. You have/had a beautiful wife/GF to look out for as well - what were your experiences in the safety security realm during your disbursed camping trips?

Thanks for sharing, this really helps us out. We are doing a month long trip out there in May, glad I could see what the different types of sites were!

That's amazing, Mark! Looks like you and Holly had a lot of Arizona adventures together.

Nice video. Did you get pinstripes on Schnebly road or on a side trail? Was thinking about taking my new full size off-road truck there, but now rethinking after seeing the pinstripes in your video.

Thanks! You should definitely be able to avoid any pinstriping on Schnebly Hill. The main trail is pretty wide, just rocky. And most of the side trails up top are wide too. However some of the other trails in Sedona will definitely get you those pinstripes hahaha. Unless you're planning on reselling the truck before you hit 150k miles though, I invite the pinstripes. I used to care, but even now with my Land Rovers I don't care. At the end of the day it's just paint and for me the fun of the vehicle is what it allows me to do. It's actually quite liberating and much more fun IMO to wear the pinstripes as a badge of honor.
