Incredible High-Altitude Adventure in the Sierra Nevada Mountains

[@TrailRecon]

This adventure was originally filmed in 2019 as a multi part series and has been remastered into this full version.

[@golferpro1241]

I thought I was going crazy. I knew you had a hemi now…lol

[@benjaminsouthard472]

I was confused too. I was like he bought another gladiator. Lol

[@TheOldJarhead]

I was sitting here going ??? 😬 YT is messing up! lol. I am pondering this very thing but your video might give me pause as I really was confused and started it a couple times, checked the channel and saw your post

[@terratechoffroad9665]

Brad, You need to check out Glue Tread. It’s a sidewall tire repair patch product and is a game changer for sure! We were about an 1/8th of an inch away from patching a puncture in an ATV rim with the large patch and if the crack hadn’t gone over the edge it would have worked. I don’t leave home without it now! 🇨🇦

[@tlw8886]

@@terratechoffroad9665 Agreed. This product saved me on a trip out on the Paiute Fort trail and further getting back home to the LA area. FYI.. Might want to pack a small pneumatic grinder(you've to the PowerTank with you!) & sanding disks to smooth out the sidewall area if required. Also buy a package of extra glue!

[@JordanBurghoff]

The forested area you drove through at 25:40 is my family's property. You probably passed our cabin on the way through. We call the lake you stopped at at 26:30 "Eyeball Lake" because when you stand on the mountain to the west, it looks like an iris. Glad to see you enjoyed the area!

[@donkersting]

Don’t ever change the cooking shots. Part of what makes overlanding so great is the ability to make unique and interesting food.

[@michaelmalvin8990]

“It felt like we were right in the middle of nowhere which is right where I like to be!” Awesome.

[@TrailRecon]

So glad, thank you!

[@Steve_Farwalker]

I was drooling, DROOLING watching Marco's meals. What a guy.

[@oldgold4u3971]

Hi Brad, my husband Richard and I came across your KZbin channel last night and we are loving your travel videos. We live in Australia in the Tarra Bulga National Park. We have a 4 wheel drive and camper trailer and go off camping with our two whippets Daman and Sampa. We love how different yet in some ways similar your country is to Australia. Also love your commentary. Thanks so much. Jane and Richard.😁🙂☺️

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you and welcome to the channel! We are blessed to have some great places to explore, but I'm looking forward to hitting some trails out your way some day.

[@jh276]

Thank you for throwing in so many cooking and coffee scenes. Love them! Does Marco need more friends? He's one amazing friend and chef! You guys really do make a GREAT TEAM...you do such a great work documenting his cooking and he is really an amazing chef.... AWESOME! Look forward to next episode! Thank you. oh and yes, your camera work has gone up another level...see more drone and sliding footages!

[@jamestiberiuskirk5994]

As always you never disappoint with the views or the narration. Thank you.

[@alexmartin9951]

One should always eat like royalty when in the great outdoors. The food has to match the view!!!

[@twobrotherspizzabigpine5683]

Yep our backyard is most beautiful place on earth :) We moved up here from SoCal to raise our kids and will never move back.Great video always enjoy your work.

[@Hootin_Holler]

I would enjoy a video all about Marco. The guy is a wizard and a friend to all. I hope you can make this happen. Sure appreciate your videos and all you do.

[@TrailRecon]

He is the best friend a guy could ask for, check out his KZbin channel www.youtube.com/@OVRLNDX

[@GATORADDAM]

Marco is one of a kind cool!

[@julioduenas9427]

He has his own channel and it's great.

[@1231oreo]

I just love your videos. They are awesome. Its so beautiful wherever you guys go. Thank you so much for sharing these videos with us, especially cause I’m not able to get out now due to back issues. You take me where i can’t go. Stay safe. 😊

[@kingsriverrealestate2268]

Nothing better than a good thunderstorm in the Sierras.

[@scottlanesimpson]

As a young man; i lived in Herlong Calif. (Sierra Nevada army depot.) East of Doyle off rt 395. That said we spent most of out recreational activities in the Sierra Nevada Mountain’s. I have camped fished and loved those times. Thanks for the reminder at 67yrs and living in Maryland it has been a nice adventure down memory lane. :)

[@Nachovalenti899]

Thank you so much Brad, this video is simply outstanding. Merry Christmas for you and your family.(including Marco and Josh)

[@drewgregory2370]

Just got my lift done this week and full size matching 35 on back ready to go. Better to have it and not need it, always pack the essentials and be prepared. Need a bigger jack next and upgraded steering components.

[@elijahcortes2049]

I just got my 2023 Rubicon gladiator 🥳 I can wait to be at there to explore nature ✌🏼

[@flyfisher530]

Nice re-mastered video Brad! Enjoyed it the first time, even better the second!!!👍

[@bigoldavey]

I wish i lived where these trails are.... east coast has nothing close to those views.... Great video, keep up the good work.

[@samcook2775]

The Milestar tires have been a big problem for Nate at Dirt Lifestyle too! He's gotten a bunch of similar failures recently and was talking through that in a video of his a few months back

[@3smoke]

Yeah I'm blamin the tire too. I have run Goodyear Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar for 12 yrs with not a single flat. I run them with 8 psi, no beadlocks, on Arizona trails.

[@davidcox2197]

Nothing like the backcountry off highway 395, I have a couple spots where large rainbows, cutthroats can be caught as well as brookies to 4 lbs, there are so many secrets in these mountains. We usually make a base camp at 7,000 ft or so and take day trips up to 10,000 ft fishing. Brad love your photography.

[@tolzyt5338]

Filmed really well and such a beautiful place. Great vid👍🇦🇺

[@TrailRecon]

Thanks 👍

[@michaelspurlock623]

another spectacular video....that campsite on the flat was awesome with stream right next to you...amazing spot!

[@steve337]

Each remaster is a storybook of off-road time with friends and family. Wonderful job!

[@kennethsillers2310]

Great video as always Brad. I love seeing the gladiator in action, such a versatile overlanding platform. The scenery here is stunning. Im still working on my gladiator build.

[@someguyonline377]

another epic video Brad thanks. Marco has a great name for a nice restaurant 'Marcos' or Marcos Steakhouse.

[@rocklanderoffroad]

Marcos Vegetarian Steakhouse....

[@blueman5924]

The view from that outlook was phenomenal ! What a find. Thanks for re-sharing. 🤙

[@tylerhunter7272]

Love ur positivity and enthusiasm - Overland adventures are all about the journey.

[@toddshook1765]

Thanks for sharing this adventure. Makes me really want to get out there more.

[@normanbarrett8124]

I remember that view from the original post. Hands down the most beautiful place I’ve seen

[@jameskendrick573]

You lucky dog carrying a chef awesome equipment and your boy you won the lottery 😀 😉

[@JEEP-N-DIRT]

Brad, I've said it 1000 times and commented on your channel so much. Although this footage is from 2019, it's such a great example of essence of exploring. I continue to be inspired and although I have a for fun channel jeepNdirt, I wish I could do this for a living as well but for now looking forward to coming out west in 2023. Great job and God Bless you guys this Holiday season brother.

[@pedrogonzalez2035]

Great job guys i really enjoy your videos and Marcos cooking! I just bought a 2000 4x4 excursion and looking for a good starter trail now that i made some truck upgrades. And do u all know of any Excursion only groups?

[@MoneyFootage]

Every group needs a man like Marco! Damn... you guys eat good when he is around. Lucky bastards. ;)

[@badchex]

Love the beauty of the Sierras, but, Marco's cooking makes me hungry every time! Great video!

[@juniorparra165]

I enjoy all your videos but especially the ones that include Marco and his incredible cooking, I follow him as well, keep the the videos coming.

[@John-uo1qf]

Another great adventure. Love it!

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

We took our 2011 lifted Jeep Liberty up to Kavanaugh Ridge twice. First time we stopped short due to snow and hiked the remainder.

[@purleybaker]

Marco is amazing.

[@stout65]

That was an epic adventure !!

[@Edgar_89]

All we need a friend like Marco Marco Rocks! 🤘

[@rehansiddiqui5780]

Very nice. You all are amazing guys. Michel you are supper amazing.

[@trcattle2797]

Man that is one heck of a meal.

[@norkisserrano]

What a gem you guys found, the view is stunning, now that’s a real adventure.

[@trailbosschrispayne5454]

I sure do miss the High Sierras.. Such a cool video. Some of the most beautiful Country side.

[@clintdyson5765]

FYI. Keep a can of start fluid and lighter with you. Works great for resetting the bead.

[@huseyindemiray4251]

I love your camping events. I would've liked to have been there

[@jcaff6963]

Fun video, thanks. Always have to consult the topos afterwards. I did Dunderberg Road with my awd Subaru back a few years ago in October. Fantastic colors and an easy, if rutted, dirt road. View to Mono Lake when you look back over your shoulder.

[@rondail5675]

Marco is such a nice guy, friend.

[@tomassanesson902]

Awesome epik trail 👍🤘❤❤❤

[@blueduster74]

Coyote flats is my favorite place in the eastern sierras. I once spent a week up there. Hiking up to some lakes in the Muir Wilderness for fly fishing.

[@Dyshof]

Wonderful vid! I would have stayed at the stream campsite. That's best you can get. And, no, you don't overdo the cooking. At least we here in Europe like fresh goods and not that dehydrated stuff sealed in foils......

[@GoViking933]

Hey, this is great content front to back. Between the moving scenery, good narration and Yes, Marcos awesome cooking - we just can’t get enough!

[@TrailRecon]

So glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

[@matth4069]

A milestar Patagonia with a side wall tear? No way....

[@johnfullmer7659]

Weather comes and goes boy it’s so beautiful and amazing great food wonderful places great video and it’s great adventure even with the tire going down on the trail!!!!

[@muddypawsadventurer7775]

Coyote Flats is a favorite of mine. Spent 21 days at Baker Camp at 10k'. It also has THE best mountain spring water on this planet right out of the mountain.. those in the know, know. Then down stream is some of the best Golden Trout fisheries in the meadow downward. Some people will mistake small brookies with Goldens. I can ususally catch my limit in 30 min.

[@MilGrip76]

My backyard, and home town. Bishop is idilic for many things. Don't forget Schaat's bakery next trip!

[@reinovaneck727]

[@karelesterhuizen7117]

I do remember this vid, thx for the full version, love it

[@wardperozuk2782]

Nice remaster! Perfect early Sunday morning coffee video for me! I have to admit, I kind of prefer the single unit trips without all of the trailers and such. But that’s just me. My wife and I are both retiring soon and I can’t wait to get back down to the warmer climates for a few weeks each year to do some exploring.

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you for watching with your cup of Joe!

[@마스터즈-t9s]

You're video is always Good!

[@user-mx8yr7lm7u]

Great job on the video as always! Amazing views, trails and food! Love seeing your videos!

[@Rusty.1776]

Great video fellas, thank you 💚 I was wondering when this was filmed. 2019 makes sense, considering that much of the country is under 15-20-ft of snow.

[@micklepanwar]

I never saw that delicious cooking at camping trails. You guys setting up high standards for cooking prospective.... Feels hungry after watching this video hahahah.... Great job lads...And Merry Christmas to everyone

[@clintelmore4420]

I love exploring that area I do lot riding my motorcycle in that area

Thanks!

On the sidewall flat, the enemy I found is a old branch that has harden can easily penetrate a sidewall.

[@Lambrocio217]

That’s awesome trips adventures

[@slagmaker6780]

I have camped in the area of 24:30. Was a nice place to spend a weekend.

[@Someguy-rf1cu]

What a cool adventure, makes me want to jump in my RX350 and go wheeling with you next time! But, I know that I will not make it far in the terrain with my Urban mobile.

[@SD_13_]

I was just in lee vining a couple months back at that same gas station. I paid 7.98 a gallon 😂

[@rocklanderoffroad]

I had a set of these tires and was going to buy another and then I saw Nates video, has has busted 6 sidewalls on Pats, I saw another video from Matt and he busted a sidewall on a set of Pats. just saying! Great video and I want to visit Cali one day, not the cities but the country side!!!

[@cz9385]

The lake you camped at is known as Ice Lake, love your videos but Denny’s ? Lol, try the Jalapeño B burger at Shatts Roadhouse or Holy Smoke for BBQ

[@Nolgore]

Something odd about those Milestar Patagonias. So many live and breathe them and so many also have this exact issue.

[@jacobruffcorn]

I keep thinking I want those for my next tires but I keep seeing these sidewalls go out too 😮

[@Thomas-qk7wf]

Beautiful trip...

[@blueduster74]

That was a strange spot for a puncture. Almost looked like a branch got it. That happen to me on Wheeler Pass near Vegas.

[@gainesj1]

I love this style of overlanding... simple but still outfitted for comfort and a good time by all. Any PowerWagon videos anytime soon? I know they aren't popular with the "Jeepsters"... but still would like to see a mix of content.

[@TrailRecon]

Thanks! Sorry, no PW videos on the horizon.

[@TrailRecon]

Yes it was

[@BrianTeal71]

I was hoping you were going to pull out some Glue Tread and fix the sidewall. Not only did you not, but then actually slammed people who don't bring spares! Come on. Would love to see you bring a plug kit and some GlueTread and try to fix your flat (or someone else's) during one of your trips, THEN do a pro/con on bringing a spare (not saying you NEVER need a spare, but I never have, and repair kits are much faster and easier than changing to a spare. Just giving you some guff, I enjoyed the video and look forward to all of your newest releases as they come!

[@rinheeonfamily7807]

If you face the bulls, are they not attacking the Red Jeep?

Dear Brad. Love watching your trips, looks amazing. Please tell me what is the equipment used to hold the ikampr tent of one of the white jeeps. This system is not visible outside the tent and looks like tent is just lying on the roof of car. Thank you.
