[@garyseven8143]

This is the single best canaan loop video on youtube.

You flatter me, sir!

[@OverlandingTheEast-x3u]

Those drone shots, though! 👍👍👍

[@DefiantOffroad]

Thanks! I felt pretty good about the drone work in this one, and the scenery made my job a lot easier!

[@therubiconcrossed2308]

Really great video! Your stuff keeps getting better every time!

[@DefiantOffroad]

Thanks, man. I'm trying to get better at editing!

[@DestinationUnknown71]

Thanks Will! Had an absolute blast. Cannot wait to do it again!

[@DefiantOffroad]

We need a three day weekend next time!

[@DestinationUnknown71]

@@DefiantOffroad already planning on it!

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Canaan is best in the spring and during rainy periods. An absolute blast when the blackwater is running and the mud pits are full.

[@DefiantOffroad]

The only thing that I was disappointed by was that the water wasn't higher!

[@overlander948]

Great video! The colors out there look insane.

[@DefiantOffroad]

Thanks! They absolutely were! It wasn't even why we went out there, but when we got there we were pleasantly surprised by all of the colors!

[@arecbarrwin6346]

Those aerial shots are insane!

[@DefiantOffroad]

Thanks! It was more nature than me though!

[@DirtRoadTherapy]

Awesome! Thanks for the shoutout! We could have made that look like we planned it and had the yellow XJ recover the Tacoma and really confused the audience LOL

[@DefiantOffroad]

That's what we get for not thinking on our feet!

@@DefiantOffroad great video man , I have a ram 2500 that I want to bring there . Do you think it’s too big of a truck to bring?

[@DefiantOffroad]

@@anthonykontos7931 you'll make it, but you're going to get some pinstriping.

[@anthonykontos7931]

@@DefiantOffroad fortunately it’s a white truck 😂😂😁😎

[@neilhuizing1382]

Looks beautiful we are heading out that way on Monday for a few nights in the excursion hopefully still some leaves left

[@DefiantOffroad]

I'm sure there will be!

[@MKMONTGO]

Sorry if I missed this, but what was the date you visited?

[@DefiantOffroad]

The video was shot on 10/14/23.

[@tomwerkes1636]

five stars!

[@DefiantOffroad]

Smoochies!

[@TheLug_]

Sweet video!! :)

[@DefiantOffroad]

Thanks! TheLug...Jay-Dub?

@@DefiantOffroadlol yup. Long time bud. We need to catch up!

[@Trailtec4x4]

Looks like I should have gone a little further north last week. The colors were just starting to come out where I was closer to Flagpole area. And yes, pinstripes will occur on the Canaan Loop. A little more if you're in a full size though. LOL.

[@DefiantOffroad]

I think this was the 6th or 7th time I've gone out there, but I hadn't been in the early fall before. Honestly, fall colors weren't even on our minds when we planned the trip. When we got out there though we were both amazed at them. I can only image what it's going to look like in a couple of weeks, as it didn't seem like it was near peak yet.

[@Trailtec4x4]

@DefiantOffroad I was there earlier in the year last year and stuffed the Ram and a Tahoe through there. Cool trail for sure.

[@Ramcharger2Travel]

Looks doable in a Subaru, what do you think?

[@DefiantOffroad]

I think you can do it. There's some sections, like right before the first water crossing, that the rocks are a bit uneven, but if you choose your line properly I think that you'd be ok.

[@Ramcharger2Travel]

@@DefiantOffroad thanks, I love that area.
