The Old Telegraph Track SOLO! Australia's most ICONIC 4wd track! Cape York 2021

[@graemetowner7257]

showing what these tracks are really like is what your good at, not just " another 4x4 going down Gun Shot". Like the commentary and advice along the way. Look forward to next ep.

[@Fernweh4x4andadventure]

Yep totally agree with this, I like to see what’s around the landscape or track, sometimes more than the track itself.

[@Fernweh4x4andadventure]

Yeahh Matey, looks awesome 👏🏻. Can’t wait until this BS Sydney NSW lockdown is over,

[@HammerRocks]

@Graeme Towner. Hear, hear.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, appreciate it!

[@chrisspies8123]

Nailed it Greame. Tyler thanks for a more authentic view of the track and creeks.

[@stephenlatimer1428]

finally a youtuber dropping the the pride n attitude n taking the alternate routes through these crossings. absolutely, protect the car from unnecessary damage n screwing the trip u have planned for so long all because of the glam shots n high fiving that goes on. well done Tyler n ky. bring on p4.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

Greatest Cape trip I've seen! Not because you sent it on Gunshot and Palm creek, we've all seen that a million times, it was all the rest of the bits noone shows that made this top notch!!!

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!

[@petem6533]

Hi Tyler. Its 7am on a Sunday morning in Full Lockdown in Melbourne planning my Solo 2022 trip to the Cape and your notification appeared. Your commentary is the honest full disclosure version of what the trip to the Cape really is. Simple day to day stuff that you only usually learn after you have been on a big trip and wish someone had told you before you left!!!! Keep up the great work. Looks like you and Ky are having the times of your lives. Can't wait for the next installment!!!!

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, really appreciate it!

[@Michael-D301]

Great video mate, love that you show more than just the hot spots that everyone else shows. The drone shots are always awesome to see. Can't wait for more. :)

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!

[@-WondersofCreation]

@@TylerThompson90 What drone are you using?

[@Malc664]

@@-WondersofCreation DJI Mavic Air 2. I asked the same question last week and Tyler replied with the answer, which is pretty good of him.

@@Malc664 Thanks mate.

[@NathanKingOverland]

I’ve watched heaps of videos of the the Telegraph track, this is the best one, by far. I’m not joking. I’ve been watching trips down this track as long as I’ve been watching 4wd videos, yours is the best. Thanks Tyler!

[@ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

Yep anyone can show the highlights but Tyler's highlighting all the bits they miss, fantastic! Late night viewing at the Overland Rum Shack!

[@4weeksleave]

100% agree, most guys just show the main bits everyone shows, this shows the bits between and the other options you have if not taking on the main ones.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, appreciate it!

[@ChrisIsOutside]

I like watching you because you respect the tracks and car and don't just thrash them like so many others

[@TheWorktest]

Absolutely love yours and ky’s interactions, those subtle little comments he shoots your way.

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate!

[@realaussiemale567]

There should be some kind of award & recognition for these types of videos. Obviously there’s thousands of hours produced every year, so 1 caveat should be videos of 15mins or less to qualify.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thank you!

[@trevorhare408]

I'm planning a solo trip for 2022 and your clips are a fantastic source of information and inspiration. You show it how it really is without the B/S. Keep up the great work and be proud of yourself mate.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate!

[@jeremyguerin4204]

Great video, thanks mate! It's helping me stay sane during lockdown

[@chriscuppywhitehead6722]

You two are without a doubt the best channel for explaining everything involved in your trips. Keep up the great work.

[@Aedey2511]

Fantastic insight to the lesser seen areas of the track. Getting a bit tired of almost every video/documentary on it is just the main obstacles & crossings we've all seen time & time again.

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it!

[@mikehzz9848]

I enjoyed that, thanks. I really appreciate that you don't thrash the car and try and hoon it unless it's absolutely necessary as a last resort. There's too many people on that track.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate!

[@sydneyraj]

By far the best video I have seen on this area. No need to thrash vehicle in gunshot if you can still enjoy the trip like this. Editing is just another level. Overall, gem of a presentation.

[@mrdoodle8748]

Best presentation of the Tele Track that I have seen, thanks for keeping it real.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate!

[@marklee559]

Awesome work. Nice to see other parts of the track, not just 5 rivers and 6 cars doing each crossing 24/7

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks 👍

[@travelsolo2677]

We did the Tele solo and towing a camper trailer in 2013. I remember winching out of Palm Creek and thinking what are we in for 🤦‍♂️😁 never used the winch again, the rest of the track was better

[@einfelder8262]

We did the track towing a camper in 2006, Jackaroo and Campomatic. No winch required back then.

[@JasonISF]

@@einfelder8262 yeah I bet it's been churned up something shocking since then

[@gmoriano]

Great vid champ. Finally some examples of alternative tracks at each spot which is good to see, as no desire to wreck my 4WD on some of those marginal spots. Well done. Enjoyed that one.

[@TylerThompson90]

Cheers mate 👌

[@leighroy8124]

Great vid! 👍🏻👍🏻 And so much better to see more of the track than just the usual main parts that everyone shows.

[@TylerThompson90]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@4wdglampingaustralia102]

Can only imagine how hard it was to set up cameras when people are waiting and watching. Well done. Bucket list 4wd trip for sure

[@TylerThompson90]

Yep definitely a bit harder with all the crowds 😁

[@tonymeredith6969]

I can't believe the number of people up there.. When I did the tele track 13 years ago I only seen three other 4wds along the whole track, one at gunshot and two at Nolans.

[@JasonISF]

Because of the "virus" people can't go overseas so they all bought 4wds. I'm waiting a couple years for the bargains :)

[@tonymeredith6969]

Just love that place... The Cape ! My wife and I did it in 2016. We did it alone, had some trepidation about it but in the end we came away with just a snapped CB antenna. Lol. Our 04 Jackaroo took everything on and did it very well. It's such an iconic place. You have done a sterling job juggling filming and driving. Great commentary too. Glad you enjoyed it, albeit the issues you had.👍😎

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate, appreciate it! Great place up there!

[@HammerRocks]

Loving the choice of music - Lie in the Sun - while at Elliott Falls. I think it's perfect for what you were doing. Such a catchy tune. Really gets you in the mood.

Top draw video, the navara goes well,we don't have coil sprung navs here in the UK,that I no of, also the chassis rot out here ,with the weather, winter conditions, mainly on the older versions, say mid 2ooo ,tendency to snap in half, they also beefed up the clutches, on manuals ,they were burning out with 7/8 kms , although the one we had lasted 18 kms totally knackered,,thanks for the video.

[@TylerThompson90]

Thanks mate!

[@adamposadas4163]

Another great video mate. This series in particular, can really see the quality in production, filming ect is next level. The money you've sunk into your camera gear, plus continually getting out there is really showing. 👌
