The Florida Adventure Trail | Part 3 of 3 | Tate's Hell, Apalachicola, Eglin, & Blackwater

We conclude our Florida Adventure Trail (FAT) series, by taking on Florida's panhandle! On this episode, we gain our pinstripes offroading through Tate's Hell and Apalachicola's tight trails, explore Eglin Air Force Base's crash sites and abandoned weapons of war, and crawl through Blackwater River State Park's red clay! A big thanks to Jon Birkmire and ‪@SunshineStateAdventureCo‬ for having spent so much time putting together this route for us to explore! Florida truly is an amazing place!

Still can’t believe you did the whole thing in 6 days! So impressive 💪💪 so glad you had fun on our route!

[@Cryptid_Matron]

So weird that YT recommended this specific part to me, ig it's bc I live like right next to Tate's Hell lmao I absolutely despise this county, but I always like seeing people have a good time when they're here on trips.

[@TyBudAdventures]

That huey is tippy haha it was rocking back and forth in the wind today!

[@corykulok3937]

Awesome I live in Key West Florida So nice to see the other side Beautiful scenery Very nice video Thank you for sharing

[@Miginski]

You did a kick-ass job putting these first 3 videos together! Cant wait for more content from you dude

[@seanzievlogs7126]

I feel like "Camp at your own risk" just means the only person removing you from your camping spot is high tide 😂

[@stephv7780]

loved this content and subscribed!

[@richardplunk3489]

Thanks for the videos I watched all three. I have lived in Florida my whole life and have never done the trip but now I am thinking about doing thanks to you. Thank you

[@donniep777]

Great video series! I will be doing this soon in the Runner!

[@christopherhansford1472]

Man you drove right though my stomping grounds. Bristol/Blountstown. The long bridge you went over between the two goes over the Apalachicola river and use to be the only bridge that crossed it in that area. Two lanes. One each way. Butt puckering tight. Log trucks use to hit the crossmembers too and shut down the whole bridge. Great videos man. Subscribed.

[@AdventureWithDanan]

Thanks man! Enjoyed the series!

[@vickomf1]

Enjoyed the content! I've only done Richloam, Croom, and Citrus so far. You got a new Sub!

[@gparroz3288]

I live just north of Eglin AFB. I wish you had more time to see how cool Eglin is and there are several great trails in Blackwater Forest

[@jacobpatterson5250]

[@JigginWithJordan]

This was awesome. Loved the old military vehicles! Would love to work together and explore those a little deeper on my channel if you’re interested!

[@Bugout_Overland]

Sure man! Just let me know how I can help!

[@shenanakinskywalker]

I would K!LL to see that collab 👀

[@saharaviani]

Great series 👍.

[@tylercolonna6423]

Good job man. Where was that campsite at Blackwater? It looked awesome!

[@Bugout_Overland]

It’s just past the main entrance on a dirt road to the right!

[@DefiantOffroad]

This is one of the few parts of Florida that I've never explored. I intend to correct that soon!

[@tl3192]

[@gerardomata.costarica]

Hey! Newbie quesion here as I'm new to the offroad. On time stamp 6:50, were you on 2 wheel drive or 4x4? If 4x4 what selection should i make with my 4ruuner offroad premium?

[@Bugout_Overland]

Hey my friend. We were in 4WD in just about every "trail" we were on. Not only because the age old saying better have it and not need it than to need it and not have it, but because running the trails in 4WD is better on the trails as it doesn't cause as much wash-boarding / rutting. It's also definitely easy getting stuck in some of these places, especially in the wet season.

[@telecaster305]

What gps do you guys use? I figure you lose cell service so gps is a must? And can you preload off-road trails ?

[@Bugout_Overland]

Yessir GPS is an absolute must when doing this! I use Gaia. What I do to prevent losing signal on my GPS is I download a section of map beforehand so it’s already saved to the app and doesn’t require a signal to navigate.

[@telecaster305]

@@Bugout_Overland awesome thanks. I didn’t know iPhone’s gps worked as long as the route is saved. Awesome just got a Gaia pro account thanks

[@Wealthishealth89]

Where can I find the gpx files to do these trails? Is there a start to finish segment to follow? Subscribed this was a awesome series

[@Bugout_Overland]

Glad you liked it! Means a lot to me! You can find the GPX files in the link down in the comments. You’ll need a GPS app like Gaia. You can start the route from east to west as seen in this series, or west to east, just depends on preference! If you need any more help or got any more questions, shoot me a message on instagram. Hope this helps!

[@DG850post]

Can you drop a pin for me to that bridge or get me close? I want to go see it tonight... we live near ANF

[@Bugout_Overland]

Shoot me a message on Instagram and I’ll get it to you!

[@bjnommay8872]

What lift do you have on your taco?

[@Bugout_Overland]

In this video I’m running a 2” ARB OME lift with medium load leaf springs. But now, I’m running Fox 2.5 performance elite with Deaver stage 3 leaf springs and Accutune Offroad UCAs

[@shenanakinskywalker]

First 💃🏼

[@mictuning]

would you like to get some free lights ?

[@marine0371]

Makes me want to avoid the drive to these cheesy places. Want to see challenges and getting STUCK!

[@Bugout_Overland]

I wouldn't consider them cheesy, I love the outdoors whether challenging or not. But these locations certainly aren't nearly as technical as Florida's East Side. If you want something more technical, I highly recommend exploring the offshoot roads of Richloam, as well as Citrus. Osceola and Ocala were fun too, but the technical spots there were few and far between imo.
