I would like to reiterate to all of you trail bike riders out there: when planning a trip to Idaho. The Smokey Bar area has the largest contiguous trail system in the country, including all connector trails to the west in the Trinity Mountains, and the system to the east toward Sun Valley and Ketchum. Roughly 600 miles of technical single track to keep you busy for quite a while. Please support the Smikey Bar store when possible. Its a huge benefit for us to have these folks here.... thank you.

[@janetdennis15]

What a great video! So proud of my hard working daughter, Kaylin. Thank you.

[@chriholt]

Thanks for taking us along Juan - always enjoy your adventures!

[@FlynBrian]

Gotta admit. I'm a wee bit envious watching this. Looks like a great adventure.

[@donmoore7785]

Nice promo for a beautiful area and old family business!

[@drenergy9786]

Juan, it is great to see you exposing your family to so many adventures.You are an example to all young families on how to raise your children. Nothing takes place of spending time with them. 😊👍

[@Towing417]

How cool is this! Thanks as always for sharing!

[@blancolirio]

Still enjoying my time off- line in Idaho. Smoky Bar Store is a vital resource out here. Home soon. Jb.

[@Talisman-tb6vw]

should put a comma after headquarters in the title - there's also a "Headquarters" Idaho. some folks might confuse the two like I did :o)

[@brakel8r]

so many people capitulate on life and living Juan...your passion is 2nd to none....and more importantly ...your way of sharing and the fact you take the time to do so with us is most appreciated. Ride safe my friend

[@amommamust]

If you are that close already, you ought to run on over to Dismal Swamp and pick yourself up some pretty rocks! But for Pete's sake, stop telling Californians how awesome Idaho is, we will run your silly butt right outta here if you keep that up! ;)

[@michaeltownsend2426]

what a cool little place. The lay out reminds of a family place in Albion Calif.

[@pinterelectric]

There’s a guy who knows how to stop and smell the roses!

You can't stay away from Idaho, welcome back Juan.

[@carlatamanczyk3891]

Been there s few times... GOD'S COUNTRY. HAPPY TO LIVE IN IDAHO.

JB, I live outside of Denver northwest near what was Rocky Flats nuclear bomb trigger plant. So many cases of prostate, breast, thyroid and pancreatic cancers. I was on the site in the early 80’s. No cancer yet. BPH and other odd symptoms. Geography and genes are both factors. Heal up Cap’n. It’s difficult for men to share such personal health information. Thanks for speaking for all of us.

[@ChristophersMum]

What a delightful place you have taken us to....very beautiful....just what you need....love from Scotland🎇

[@grandpajim329]

🤗 BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY, AWESOME DRONE VIDEO, Another TOUCH of the back-country digs, AND the lives of those adventurous persons that KEEP THE FAMILY TRADITIONS for those to follow. THANKS AGAIN JUAN, 👍😍😍😍😍😍

[@donaldhawkes5226]

Beautiful country out west ,love to visit this place,I'll keep this in mind

[@richardburguillos3118]

Thanks again and again and ...... There’s a special place many of us will never see or experience, but wait... thanks to you we were able to at least see what were missing. Thanks Juan!!! Motor on...

[@jesscneal]

I can't wait until 227 is fixed. One of my favorite roads

[@jaykuca]

Damn, Juan. I've got to compliment you on the outstanding job you've done to take advantage of your "unscheduled" time off. You are to be commended for the great places you've chosen to visit. And, oh yeah, the aerial footage at the end of your latest post is superb. Absolutely SUPERB! Take care, my friend. And get well soon.

[@LWDavis58]

You are a natural reporter. Nice photography.

[@SmittySmithsonite]

What a BEAUTIFUL area out there! Some of the best scenery in the world, hands down. One heck of a place there - thanks for sharing, Juan!

[@michaeldougfir9807]

Ohhhhh man! Reminds me of my childhood in the Sierras. Great hostess, and a fine tour. Thanks Juan.

Damn gorgeous! I absolutely love these updates and seeing you experience our great USA!

[@crazyweirdproductions]

Great shout out to a well deserved business and all the folks up that way! Woohoo Smoky Bar Store! The drone footage adds so much value for sure. Great job!

[@daveotto2190]

A lot of years have passed but I remember making the trip from Ketchum to Featherville on that road. Beautiful country, thanks for the memory jog. The Trail Creek road from ketchum over to HY 93 is also a beautiful drive.

[@4edward61]

What an enjoyable way to start my day. Thanks Kaylin and Juan.

[@bobclarie]

What a wonderful place to visit. Love your production Juan; Great Quad flying also. Take Care Bob

[@raybankes7668]

super story. I Have trucked across Southern Idaho many times but never got of I-84 except to go into Twin or Burly and deliver. Now that i know of this place just north of Mt. Home ill plan on going. Thanks Juan. be sure to continue to get the rest you need as this impacts your health a lot.

[@challengerhitchman]

I grew up driving by that store and camping all over the mountains in that area. Its a great place don't tell so many people about it.

[@4n2earth22]

Real nice to showcase this out-of-the-way spot. Super awesome.

[@metlmuncher]

I appreciate you taking the time to showcase places like this. Nothing like the mom and pop places. That bed would be amazing after a day on the trail.

[@tysleight]

Don't forget about the hot springs! Warwick and Frenchman. I love riding up in that area, 45 miles from my house in twin falls. Rockybar is my go to central Idaho spot.

[@brakel8r]

lol.... 00:25. i can't tell you how many times i have uttered those words...and...we all sound the same when we say them.....thanks for the ride a long

Kudos Juan for supporting and being a booster of local small business. Great location.

[@dougbeagle3657]

Travelled past Fairfield going to Boise from Dubois as a short cut for us Canadians What you need to see is The Craters of the Moon Nat Monument where the Volcano is and it is just east of Fairfield Coming Back someday will head up to The Smokey Bar Café for sure

[@karlsandin4515]

Gorgeous , reminds me of parts of out here in Colorado !

[@martybunyan12]

Juan, great to see you out and about after your latest health situation. Wouldn't expect anything else! Have loved and followed your channel since the beginning of the Oroville crisis. Sending all of our positive energy your way from back here in Kentucky. Hoping the best for you and your family!

[@46monkeyes]

This looks SO beautiful and tranquil! I’d love to come on out and just relax but I haven’t been fishing in over 20 years and I don’t hike. I’m not sure if I would fit in!

[@douglaspohl1827]

Beautiful... Enjoy! Thanks for share!

[@sumrica]

Pickled sausages in red juice on the bar...always goes good with a beer. Some might say it's survival food.

[@davidglenn1]

Juan, you are making me miss my home state. I grew up not too far from there, but am now about 2000 miles away.

[@mejt223]

what an awesome place! Im now dying to go here next summer. What a cool lady too.

[@MaShcode]

Wow, great area! Thank you for showing it off.

I can 4-wheel in around that area back in the 70's. Beautiful country. O to be young again.

[@manofinterests334]

Ahhhh Idaho! Good for the soul of a camping dirt biker! Coming to the top of that chute at snowslide is a bit breathtaking, no!?

[@PMMM9]

Great digs. Have fun and enjoy the summer.

[@olyabusha]

Thank you for these updates, Juan. I love your channel, always smart, knowledgeable, and approachable at the same time. Enjoy your time off and recharge 👊

[@rudolfabelin383]

Hi Juan from Sweden! About that runway, here in Sweden we make some of the very best chainsaws in the world. The Husqvarna saws. Even for me, as an amateur, that just makes about 20 cords a year. It won't take long, payment accepted in IPA!!! The very best to you Juan and your family.

[@Alvan81]

Juan, by this point I baaically give you a thumbs up automatically, before I watch the video lol, because of who you are ! And they are always interesting. That store reminds me of visiting my uncles in rural Lousiana as a kid.

[@spudgunner296]

This is a great opportunity to visit southern Idaho as we are not on fire nearly to the extent that we usually are. We took our UTV to the Salmon, ID, area a couple of weeks ago and had a nice time. Glad you are in our neck of the woods. Happy trails and thank you for providing excellent content.

[@flybyairplane3528]

JUAN , Hello, what a beautiful area, then that little store in the middle of nowhere, you can get a little of EVERTHING ! What a place, in the family for eons, stay safe my friend,,Cheers from NJ

[@Woodman_Custom_Sawing]

Awesome! What a landscape. I'm jealous.

[@osimnod]

Thanks for another inside look (no pun intended) at a local resting spot for off-road travelers. Glad to hear it's along the route for the ID BDR, since that's the most-likely first attempt for me in ID. This is similar to what you did for the resting spot in UT, and much appreciated.

[@billyphoenix5139]

Any place that pays a little homage to Texas is A-#1 with me especially 1 with historical essence. Thanks Juan for sharing this Gem of a Gem with us!👍👍

[@michaeldougfir9807]

To Nathan Greer: My thanks for that definition of a geographic BAR. It is much better than my friends or I guessed. I'll buy it. Thanks.

[@alabas4570]

Are you coming through Boise on the way home? Check out a place called "Kuna Caves". It's an old lava tube that can be explored. Worth a quick detour off the highway!

Thanks. Looks like fun!

Loved that opening montage, the way you integrated stills and video and great music track tying it all together. Oh, heck , I enjoyed the whole production. Your enthusiasm is infectious! Great rapport with Kaylin which, from her great smile, she seemed to really enjoy.

[@ricfly52]

Awesome video Juan. My wife and I spent 8 days around Smokey Bar just after the 4th of July. We camped at Bowen, and then up little smokey. That area is my old stomping grounds.

So many adventures to be had! Thanks for the inspiration Juan I already have 400 miles on my new bike. 160 of them from last weekend.

[@steveinla8963]

Hi Juan, Thanks for sharing your adventure from a guy stuck in L.A.. The bird's eye view is great, but I'm sure it so much better in person. Be well! R, Steve

Juan,man you cool. Nice spot up there, the Woman who runs that store seems to be a lovely human bein. In all your travels if you ever come down to the high desert, i am right on the way up to Indian Cove Campground, a part of Joshua Tree Natl Pk. You and the family would be welcomed here at Jimtown (as i have named this spot) anytime. Prayers of Healing and Goodness shall continue in your direction!
