Vermont's BEST Off-Road Trail! | Chateauguay 2022

Matt and I are back on Chateauguay, arguably the best Class 4 road in the state. While I've posted this trail before, you guys have never seen me take on the even burlier lower section...UNTIL NOW! This toothy riverbed has it all: big wet rocks, slippery logs and riverbanks, and tight squeezes between rocker panel crunching boulders. As with most east coast wheeling, you don't have a lot of line choice, which of course makes it more fun! If you're in the area and looking for a challenge, you won't be disappointed with Chateauguay.
Hope you all enjoy the video, and SUBSCRIBE for more!

I somehow missed the bed-bob video, I'll go back and watch. When I first saw the side of the truck, I thought you had stretched the wheelbase, but that didn't make sense. The truck did great and that's a crazy trail. Nice video.

Haha it was a fun project, hope you enjoy the video series! Chateauguay is amazing.

Grew up In Bridgewater Corners and ran those roads for years!

[@HubCityOverlanding]

This genuinely looks like a fun trail to be on!! 🤘

[@S0nnenberg]

Did it again with a crew from Northeast Overland yesterday! Never gets old.

[@jdsmaintenance]

Always a fun road! Hoping to catch up with you this weekend!

[@S0nnenberg]

The most fun! I’ll do my best to link up with you guys for a bit, would love to meet in person!

Doing some camping and wheeling the second weekend of August and chateauguay is one of the "trails" I plan on hitting. Been doing some camping and scouting of Vermonts class 4s this year and have really enjoyed it up there.

[@S0nnenberg]

It definitely should be on the top of any Class 4 exploration trip! Hope you have an awesome time!

[@gonejeepnadventuring9709]

👍👍 awesome stuff, good to see all the work on the rig has paid off

[@S0nnenberg]

It certainly has, the truck feels stupidly nimble…now I just need a driver mod 😂

[@gonejeepnadventuring9709]

@@S0nnenberg lol! I doubt that, looks like you got a handle on that just fine 👍 and we all need to check if our starters still work every now and again 🤣

[@onesabez]

Cool trail, love the scenery.

[@S0nnenberg]

It’s definitely one of my favorites!

[@theoriginalmodz]

That trail is epic! It’s been a few years since I’ve ran it.

[@S0nnenberg]

It’s so great! I’ve done it three times this year 😂

[@cowabungaitis-VT]

we were down south last weekend after some home work involving some of your videos for reference awesome stuff man!

[@S0nnenberg]

Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed/were able to use the videos!

[@4x4adventurecanada10]

One day I'm gonna come down to Vermont and do this trail!

[@S0nnenberg]

You absolutely should!!

[@walterwalter1092]

What’s the recommended tire size to do something like this? Can it be done on a 32” or is more required?

[@S0nnenberg]

This trail is done on 31s somewhat frequently, and maybe smaller. You just need to be more careful with line choice and be willing to drag on skids and use that armor!

[@scottdinhofer2104]

what size tires did you use? and what pressure did you run? I am assuming you aired down?

[@S0nnenberg]

This truck was on 35x12.5s, and I usually ran between 12-15psi.

[@t1mdon]

Are there any good beginner trails in Central Vermont? First time Jeep owner and don't really know how to find trails, but want to start getting into it!

[@S0nnenberg]

Lots of them! I can point you in the right direction if you send me an email at [e-mail]

[@t1mdon]

@@S0nnenberg email sent!

[@S0nnenberg]

Thanks! I saw it and will get you a detailed response when I have a minute. Welcome to the world of off-roading! You’ll love it.

[@65SoYolo]
