Top of the World Trail - Moab, Utah

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Man, this was such a fun day and you captured it perfectly! Can’t wait for next time. Like this comment if you think Brad and Regina should come up to Canada to wheel with me. 😀👍🏻

[@kevinhill818]

What a brilliant idea! Seeing Brad and Regina wheel in Canada with you would be amazing. Some deep snow wheeling to a remote spot would be a prefect adventure film and be sure to gets the thumbs up :)

[@mikegallagher2732]

YESSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!! 😄😄😄😄😄😄

[@TrailRecon]

Heck Ya, Canada is on our bucket list!

[@timbaker4423]

I'll be wheeling close to there next month. Northern Washington state.

[@regenakowitz]

Yes! I've always wanted to visit Canada and now we have a fantastic reason to do so! 😄

[@johnchisolm4033]

Good to see Regina doing the tough stuff. This also a perfect relationship video. Two people working together that love each other. Good example.

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! 😊

[@Erigato2010]

HEAR HEAR!! And lord forbid something were to happen Two drivers are ALWAYS better than one

[@WarPaintOffroad]

Hey Brad! Thanks for stopping and check on us. It was good to meet you. And congrats to Regina for tackling the trail on such a tough day.

[@TrailRecon]

Great to meet you guys!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! It was definitely the hardest trail I've done so far!

[@Venture2Roam]

I really liked seeing things from Regina's perspective in this video. Well done!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! It was such an awesome day! Great trail and even better company! ☺

[@troyallen5806]

Yeah absolutely beautiful!

[@coloradomallcrawlers]

“You can drive this in a stock Jeep with excellent driving skills.” That’s a bit different than some of the commenters in my comment section, lol. Good stuff Brad!

Great job Regina!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@grahamwood9842]

Well done Regina. That took a lot of patience and faith in yourself. You have a great coach. 🤗🤗

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! And yes, I do have the BEST coach!

[@NB-yn7dv]

We were up there three weeks ago and it was snow and mud the whole way. You couldn’t hardly see the Valley below from all the snow and fog. It was awesome

[@charlesaceasarii1797]

Right on Regina, get after it! I have been working with my wife on her skills too! She has not yet tackled anything like this, but she's coming along and having fun. Keep it up girl.

[@astonbritto6150]

Great Video Regena & Brad! Was awesome to see Shaun and his new trail destroyer. You have make a trip with your family to BC soon and check out some of our trails!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! I hope we make it to Canada soon! I've always wanted to visit. 😊

[@popcorn_offical]

Like you, I had not driven this trail for ten years and I was amazed how much more challenging it had gotten over those ten years. And the view at the top is nothing short of stunning!

[@xj-n-4lo196]

With inspiration from you, my family and I completed this trail in our XJ on Thanksgiving Day in 2021. We had it all to ourselves and ate lunch up there. One of the most memorable days as a family we have shared together! Thanks Brad!

[@Todoterreno_4x4]

Great video as always, I look forward to your videos.. What an awesome way to spend time with wife, family and friends..

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you!

[@DrewToner]

Yea Regina!! You did fantastic!! And Brad got to take lots more video!!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! 😄

[@taurota1554]

Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

[@curlyeagle]

It’s crazy what mud will do to a trail. I ran top of the world for the first time last thanksgiving and the weather and conditions were great. I challenged myself to run my 2020 JLUL rubicon(stock still) with no lockers. I ran the hardest line my stock 33’s would allow and no bypasses. I have to say, I was very impressed with what the rubicon can do. Cool to see the missus running the trail, my wife has run poison spider, metal masher, and 7 mile rim in the sxs and she loves it. Love the vids you do

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! It was so much fun! And Seven Mile Rim is probably one of the most scenic trails in Moab (and that's saying something!) with stunning views around every turn. Loved it!

[@osnat057]

Your movie also turned my stomach! And I remembered the old jeep of my parents who are gone, and those trips they did like you though, not exactly lol.. Good job Regina!

[@brunnie]

WTG Regena!!! What an adventure! You did an excellent job. Thanks for such an adventure and fun way to start Saturday morning. Until next time.... Wheel safe.

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you for watching! We had so much fun!

[@DennisJPolson]

So cool! Congratulations Regina and great spotting and cinematography, Brad. 😊👍

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!😊

[@grandeoverland6787]

Love that you go out and find very original trails all the time but it's coo to see you tackle an oldie but goodie!

[@DefiantOffroad]

I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing this trail for the first time in a few weeks!

[@edwardsimmons3721]

Another trail I am looking forward to when in Utah. Great to see everyone in the family loving the off road life.

[@mikegallagher2732]

This was AWESOME ...Regina, YOU are AWESOME !!!!!! ( You too Brad !!!!) 😄😄😄😄😄😄

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you so much! 🤗

[@martinnightingale6033]

Well done Regina . I would love the opportunity to drive trails like you have driven . I live in the uk so most trails are mud pits . Also used by others who think they are so much more important. Horses .walkers . Mountain bikers etc . Off road wheeling is a bit frowned upon shall we say . Yes there are specific off road driving parks / centres etc . Fair play to them making a few pounds with folk playing in the mud . I want to go off roading extreme. Kind regards Martin . Cotswolds UK

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! We do have some fantastic places to off-road here in the US! But I've seen so many beautiful photos of the Cotswolds and it's definitely a place I would LOVE to visit!

[@martinnightingale6033]

@@regenakowitz you should come to the UK especially the Cotswolds you would love it .

[@brianwadsworth5752]

Awesome trip, and great job Regina!!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@fj9460-lr]

Amazing, the trail seemed challenging but Regina showed some of us guys how it’s done! Thumbs up Regina, you’re a lucky gal to have such a trusting and humble husband along as your spotter!! Brad, you’re so calm, no wonder you were probably very good as a Naval Medic!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! Brad's a great teacher and he was a stellar Navy Hospital Corpsman!

[@scottreynolds273]

Excellent video.. Great driving!! Very impressive 😎👍

[@AceRph]

As always, nice production, Brad. My Jeeping buddies and I did TotW two weeks ago. The weather and driving conditions could not have been better., dry, clear skies, and mid 70's. We went up the west side and down the east side. The east side was the most difficult section I have ever done, What a view from the top!

[@WanderingWakims]

You guys are awesome! Really enjoy the videos with Regina too! We spent the last few months in Moab and have been really enjoying getting out on the trails. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! Hope you had a great time in Moab...it's so gorgeous there!

[@karenjacobi5809]

Congrats Regena!! Looked like you handled the obstacles well… great teacher!!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! And I had the best teacher ever! 😊

[@_CharlieHarper]

... I need just one word to describe this : AWESOME !

[@scottymac5174]

To me, what is cool about these videos is that my friends and I did some of these trails 12 years ago on our Dual Sport motorcycles. 2008 Yamaha WR250R. I still have have it. But after a spiral right lower tibia fracture, a broken right collarbone, a broken left wrist...Transitioning now to 4 wheels. We did the western portion of the TAT trail back in 2010. The Trans America Trail. From the east coast to the west coast, primarily on dirt. We started in Colorado and rode out to the coast in Oregon. Moab was on the way. A couple of trips back to Moab since then with the bike. And north central Nevada, southeast Oregon. Top of the World and the rim trail... Black Dragon canyon..

[@jerrymestas1231]

That was awesome!!!! Great job to all👊🏻

[@milonetzler67]

Brad is a great spotter but Regina you did an exceptional job as well!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you so much! Could not have done this without Brad!

[@aloharover5980]

I have done TotW a couple times, but its always been in Aug/Sep/Oct. The wet and mud really changes things. And some of those lips are definitely more dug out than when I was there Sep 2021.

[@joesteele7514]

Great video..my wife enjoyed seeing Regina tackle Moab. Semper Fi.

[@andysolorzano4126]

Great trip and another fun video. Congrats to Regena for conquering this trail. This has given me some hope that my wife will agree to do some trail driving in the near future. Pretty sure she won't try driving any trails like this one! 😄

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@RaMoonArt]

I very love my brother, jeep it best car can go every where ❤❤❤❤

[@Russianmafia10]

I did this trail back in July with a Tacoma on 33s, barely was enough to get up. Definitely had to pick my line carefully the entire trail. One of the huge steps i had to take since the bypass was closed, but definitely a great trail

[@Draevon68]

Great job Regena! Phew, you showed some serious courage on some of those rough areas. Some of those other highly modified vehicles didn't make it through unscathed and you did. Well done.

[@paullaverty3038]

I always love it when you bring the wife and your son.😊😊

[@robertwhitemoto]

Way to go Regena !!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! 😊

We just completed top of the world during ejs2023 and we 😍 loved it. You must’ve been there right after us we fortunately had no snow or mud but very challenging trail still beautiful!

[@michaelspurlock623]

Awesome video.....great job Regina.....I'm hoping to do Top of the World my next time in Moab....it will be my first time on TOW and I will be just as excited as you were to conquer it.

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@carlpickins106]

Nice job Ma'am!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@morgangriffith6226]

I've driven this trail a handful of times in an unlocked XJ on 31s, it's one of my favorites. The influx of 37"+ tires and a lot more vehicles on the trail has really taken a toll on this route in the last ten years. I'd say 33ish tires and some driving skills would be the minimum these days, lockers wouldn't hurt.

[@nativetexson]

WooHoo Regena! You rock. Congrats-

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@John-uo1qf]

Never a dull moment. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@kevinhill818]

Great video and well done Regina on what looked like a very difficult and muddy Moab trail. I love the fact you are all down to earth and it was great seeing Shaun and the trail destroyer on your channel.

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! It was such a wonderful and memorable day on the trail!

[@spechtdesigns]

Awesome video! Those views are insane. I absolutely love the patience and teamwork you both had. Glad the video had both of you!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you! I'm luck to have full-time access to such a great teacher!

[@t.o.f.t.s.]

Time for Brad&Regina to update the Licence Plates on their Fleet. TRLRCN1,2,3...etc😊, especially since Mud is Brad's least favorite wheeling. 🤣

[@gr8pony727]

The owner of the Italian Restaurant in Moab told me the best time in Moab is when there’s snow on the rocks. Look like he was right. Great wheeling indeed

[@bwofficial1776]

Beautiful scenery and great job to Regena. It looks like you guys had a great time. That view from up high was unreal. Nice to see an old CJ-7 still out there wheeling.

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@soccerdoc78]

That's me. Not a great way to on the video, but for us the CJ (manual and carburated) is the only way to go (even when we break it).

“This Jeep is a beast!” And the yellow 2 dr is beautiful. Beauty & the Beast. Appreciate the ride along in either one. 🥾⛰️🇨🇦❤️

[@fm71450]

Brad, thanks for another interesting video. I just came off of this trail on October 5th, this year. My stock 2021 diesel JLU Sahara would NOT have made it. Without (at least) skid plates, 35s, a 4” lift kit, and lockers front and rear - it is unlikely that a person could have arrived at the top. A stock 2023 JLU Rubicon did arrive at the top with us - it used the lockers quite often on the way up. Anyway, people should do what they think - and have a “Plan B” - there are so many great stretches of the Kokopelli Trail that my stock Jeep can navigate, and deliver beautiful views of the desert Southwest. Keep it up!

[@martinklaus2203]

Go Regina!!! Awesome!!!!

[@regenakowitz]

Thank you!

[@donmontalvo1]

Did TotW this year at EJS too, glad I'm not the only one who thinks it was tougher this year than in the past. Glad I missed the snow! Keep the great videos coming!

[@adventureswithcorrine]

It's fun to watch rigs take the tough lines but I would be VERY interested to see a mixed group out there showing all of the different lines that could be taken up a particular trail. After all, it's not often that most of us get to choose which rig to take or to go wheel with similarly built rigs. Thanks for another fun trail ride.

[@filterec1698]

We had a mixed group take the trail during EJS. We all went down the Hard side to come back as well. Coming down, there was no bypasses for the heavy obstacles and various rigs with various mods made it through. The guidance was non-existent so we were left to our own. Made it through with one scratch on a wheel.

[@wunderkind56]

Great job by Regena.

[@hispeed1985]

Went up that a year ago for 8 days around my B-Day which is Tommorow and Top of the World was one of the trails I did with my 6 inch lifted Suburban on 35s with open diffs. It did way better on all the trails that i did than i expected and only mishap was a broken outer tie rod because the new swaybar connector I had put on a month before failed and was allowing the sway bar to hit my tie rods and bend them. Broke about a 1000 feet from the Top of the World overlook when i diffed out and hung up on my hitch at the same time. Was able to get out with being able to jam what remained of the bent threads into the sleeve to finish the trail and get back to town with a bit of toe in

[@TrailRecon]

Bummer about the carnage, but I'll bet that's a day you won't forget!

[@hispeed1985]

@@TrailRecon going back in Sept to wheel again. Last time i took my mom (who has a sciatica nerve issue and had to take it somewhat easy when off road) and brother with me and we met up with my sister and her BF who got there the day before in her lifted FJ. She had to leave a few days earlier than me for her return trip to southern Cali. Had to do mostly easy trails with the roughest one my mom went on was part of Poison Spyder and only to the waterfall during a return trip from Gemini Bridges, but was pretty late in the day already and turned around. Next time will be with my dad whos riding with me and a buddy whos bringing his truck
