- On this adventure we headed across state lines to Sedona Arizona for a trip we had been planning for 2 months. We knew Sedona was a very scenic place with all the red rocks but we also heard there were some amazing trails out there that we needed to go check out. So along with some of our great friends, we packed up and headed out for a long weekend of wheeling.

Once everyone in our group made their way to Sedona, we all met for some good food, drinks and a little comradery at the Sedona Pizza Company before we kicked things off the next morning. If you visit Sedona, I highly recommend making this a stop on your list.
The next morning bright and early we met up at the Coffee Pot Restaurant for breakfast which came highly recommended. We aired down, did a quick gear check and had a short drivers meeting to discuss the days plans and headed out.
The first trail of the day was going to be Broken Arrow which was just a few miles down the road. This was the one trail we were all the most excited about.
The Broken Arrow trail did not disappoint. This 3.8 mile long trail had some great obstacles at almost every turn and the views of the red rocks all around never got old. As we made our way to the top of Devils Staircase, are anticipation level started to climb. Because with all the rain that morning, we knew it might be a bit of a challenge.
Devils Staircase really is much steeper than it does on camera for sure, but we all had a blast making our way down. However there were a couple in our group that just had to see if they could make their way up and without a doubt watching Little Big Jeep hammer their way up might have been the highlight of the day.
Broken Arrow is a very popular trail and we must have come across at least 15 Tour guided Jeeps along the way.
As we made our way off broken arrow it was time to stop for lunch, soak in the surroundings and get ready for Soldier Pass which was the next trail on the agenda.
The trailhead to soldiers pass was just a few miles down the road from broken arrow. This trail had a couple obstacles along the way, but not as difficult as broken arrow. But once again, the amazing scenery was around every corner
There are 2 must see destination along soldiers pass, the first one we stopped at was Devil’s Kitchen which is a massive sink hole and there are no railis, so watch your step. The second stop is the Seven Apache Pools, a very remarkable spot to visit
On our third and last trail run of the day to Schneblys Hill, mother nature decided to turn on the water works and I think everyone agreed that it made going up this mountain much more scenic with all the water falls coming off the rocks. This trail is easy and you really don’t even need 4 week drive. The gate was close half way through, but no worries as the views at this spot were breathtaking.
On day 2 we planned on doing Red Rock Powerline trail and then take the optional off shoot to Outlaw trail. This trail is just over 30 miles round trip and we expected it to take a up the whole day. This trail is rated as difficult, but aside from a couple small obstacles that you would want to have high clearance, it was that bad at all.
From all the rain the night before, the mud was exceptionally thick and I everyones tires were really gummed up which made things a little interesting going up the side of Black Mountain.
The ruins at the end of the Outlaw trail exceeded all our expectations. These ruins date back to the 1100’s and to see so much of it standing was very cool. This is a must-see destination and if you are out in Sedona. There is a flat dirt road that you can take to go straight there, but I think taking the Red Rock Powerline road is the best way to do it. - Авто та транспорт
For anyone interested you don't need a modified vehicle that cost $40k-$80k for any of these trails. I've done them all with ease in a bone stock 1987 Toyota 4runner with over 300k on the odometer. No lift or lockers on 31" ATs. Please be courteous and pull over for other vehicles and take caution around corners, these are very popular trails. Last but not least please ALWAYS pack out what you brought in. Mother nature is not your trashcan.
This is where I grew up! Pink Jeep tour is famous due to my father’s auto body shop that built the first two original pink jeeps. Panther pink they called it
It’s amazing seeing your adventures with all the jeeps going through trails. Keep doing more vids.
This was one of the best produced videos I have ever seen. The music was quiet enough for us to hear the Jeeps work and the narration was just right. Awesome job.
What a great compliment! Thank you very much!
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a way to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid lost my login password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Andres Justus Instablaster :)
@Hayden Dominic i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Hayden Dominic It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
The Pink Jeep tour on Broken Arrow was the final straw that got us to buy our 2006 Jeep Rubicon. Thank you Sedona!!!!
Great video! Fond memories of Sedona. I completed Powerline in a rwd Ford Transit cargo van. 2.5" lift, high clearance shock mounts, 30" KO2s, rear elocker. Beautiful trail, some inclines, but pretty easy other than the steep rock ledges right at one end of it. Stacked rocks for ages there.
wow, looking at you rig three years eairler, what a transition has taken place. Wonderful.
WOW!! AMAZING video!!! great to see your son at the wheel!!! I bet he can't wait to get his in the trails!!! thanks for sharing !! I'd love to get out west at some point! but at least you provide these great vids!! keep em coming!!
Thank you! The boys are itching to get the XJ on the trail so they can drive solo!
Thank you, Brad! I love Sedona and I would move there ina heartbeat. My wife wants to live ona beach in Florida. I love the mountains. My favorite motorcycle ride is Highway 89 and 89A, from Prescott to Flagstaff.
Double thumbs up !! Great to see the 2 door TJs for us that haven't made that step. I get tired of some of the videos around that see like you can't be in the group unless you have a JK. Well done video. Great editing and music mix.
Brad thank you for taking us on a great adventure. Makes my day more interesting. I would love to be there..
Keep making me jealous! As I sit and stare out of my window in Wisconsin at the snow and cold it is nice to see some folks having a good time. The SDJC looks to be a real great organization. I like seeing how it brings the whole family out together for events. Since I joined your channel it has certainly exploded in subscribers.... and you are nearing your 1 million views! Great job Brad. Your down to earth reviews and production quality set it above the rest.
It was truly an amazing time and the people are what make any adventure awesome. Thank you!!
This is one of my favorite videos of yours. I'm from PA and part of my bucket list entails going out west and hitting up Glamis and some of the trails out west. Since seeing this video, I've added Sedona to the list. Hopefully I can get out there in the next few years!
It's one of my favorite trips for sure and I put more hours in to making this video over any other.... it was a great trip and cannot wait to go back!
Great video! This is in my backyard and hope to get there soon. Love your channel, some of the best local 4 wheelin I've seen. Great stuff!
Loved your video, describing several trails, very helpful. Thanks
Great video... no idea how I have missed this one. I live about 70 miles and hit the trails there often. Sadly, Solider Pass is not closed to vehicles. Going next weekend in my second JK and will hit Broken Arrow a few hours before I get married in the Red Rocks. Keep up the great work!
Watching your videos and the desire to get outdoors has given me Jeep fever so bad lol 😂😂😂 my wife and I dont live far from sedona and its our getaway spot. Now im trying to talk her into letting me buy a Jeep so we can go run the trails. 😂
A dirty jeep is a happy jeep 😊 I enjoyed your video, thank you.
Amen to that! Thanks you!
Great to have Jeep videos without a bunch of foul language that I can watch with my kids. Sedona is now on my bucket list. Guess its time to start restoring the CJ in my garage.
Stfu and stop being such a pussy 😂🖕🏼
@@Vera-xu3xw okay libtard
I really enjoyed the video.....we too did Sedona trails a few years back. Loved the trails and the scenery. Went from there up to Moab (more trails ) then back to KY through Ouray (yes, more trails). We always wind up heading home thru Moab and Ouray but try to find trails everywhere we go even if its just more of a gravel road over the mountain. Heading to Nevada this year...
funny the best video of a local trail was done by out-of-towners... great video
another great video, nice rigs sweet trails what more could a jeeper want. keep them coming.
Thank you! Will do!
luv lil big jeep bangin it up the hill....lil muffler action no biggy its a jeep wen it breaks upgrade...looks lika good wheelin group good vid....im peanut butter and jealous
Little Big Jeep knows how to get it done!
Little Big Jeep......GET SOME!!!!!! great vid
Dude right! I think aside from the wheels it was stock.
Love this video! I just bought a new ‘17 rubicon and can’t wait to get up to Sedona and try it out! Thank you!
I live there in Sedona for 13 years. My house was 7 miles from here. Absolutely beautiful
Why do I get so much joy out of watching Jeeps climb down and over red rocks???
Great video Brad! Thank you for making it happen 👍👍👍
Thanks for helping make it an awesome weekend!
Great trail ride, and really interesting ruins, thanks.
Cool video! It's nice to see some other 2 doors out there on the trails!
Thank you!
Great video, thanks for posting it. Drones sure are making for more cinematic movies here on UA-cam. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of your Project Cherokee videos. As a guy newly interested in offroading/overlanding I think I can learn a lot here.
Thanks, I love using the drone when I can. More videos on Project XJ Overland to come soon.
Honanaki Ruins. Different mason skills told me several different generations lived there. Painted petroglyphs above them. Man this was awesome👍👍😎🇺🇸
Beautiful Sedona my favorite place ❤
I own some land out in AZ but I live in WA. I cant wait till I can get there to join in all the fun! Seeing this makes me want to be there even more than I already do!! Great vid!
I can't wait to go back to Sedona, some amazing wheeling out there... your a lucky to have land out there. Thanks!
I love AZ. I've been to Sedona many times and it's very pretty. I will definitely have to visit the trails now that I own a Jeep. Thanks for sharing!
You won't be disappointed!! I can't wait to go back!
I did a short trip through the Prescott National Forest. It was nothing like this, but it was quite beautiful. I always found it fun to drive to Crown King as well. Took a wrong turn last time and wound up somewhere completely unexpected. Made for a great trip!
Can't wait for my trip to Sedona. Thanks for the video.
You're going to love it!
Awesome video bud. Man those views were awesome. TrailRecon best Jeep Channel on UA-cam!
The views never got old for sure. Thank you, what a great complement!
You have amazing videos that I love to watch, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!!
Great video. Probably my favorite one of yours to date.
Right on! Thank you!
Great video Brad, thanks for letting us tag along on your awesome adventure.
You guys are the ones that made this journey so amazing! Thanks!
Just finishing up breakfast at the Coffee Pot. Amazing place! Thanks Brad 😉
Very nice video ... Keep them coming... Very nicely done.. That area looks like fun !!!
Thank you! Can't wait to get back to Sedona!
Best jeep video ever. Except for the music. I watched it on mute and it was serene and beautiful.
I live 2 hours away from these and my favorite trail in Sedona is absolutely Broken Arrow! The views are amazing!
Think a stock mojave gladiator could handle it?
@@purpskurp8737 Yes before my lift my stock Rubicon made it.
Nice video of what looked liked a great adventure!
Awesome vid! Probably one of the best at showing the aspect of "wheel'n"...Superbly edited, well put together. New Sub from this vid alone.
Thank you and welcome to the channel!
I used to live in Flagstaff so I made it down to Sedona a few times just to run these trails. They are a lot of fun!
I'm trying to find an excuse to go back!
If you do let me know and I could join you in my XJ. Maybe show you a few other trails in AZ! Great videos.
Awesome video, well done! My family just got our first Jeep about two months ago. We live in Ohio and I would love to take it out West someday because it looks amazing out there!
Great video. I look forward to seeing more on your XJ soon!
Thanks! XJ lift install video coming soon. The brown truck also just dropped off some more goodies today!
Amazing! Great video as always!!!
Thank you!
awesome great scenery great camera work fun to watch
Thank you!
Wow! Love this video, I didnt have my jeep for my 6 years in San Diego, but I’m pretty sure I might when I come back! Learning the manual JK U is going great, a lotta fun
Have done these trails before and are memorable. Going again in 30 days
Great video and great choice of music! Sedona is where I took my Jeep on it's maiden trip in October of 2015 and have been back 3 more times since. Absolutely love it there!
A great first place to take a Jeep. I"m absolutely going to go back! Thanks!
Awesome video! Were heading out from Indiana the first week in March towing our full sized Polaris ranger for some trail riding. This looks like a good area to start.
That was fantastic, your best yet! Thanks so much for sharing that! I have a friend who lives in Tucson AZ and I'm trying to talk him into doing these with me. I drive down and he drives up, that sort of thing. I'd love to see those ruins.
We thought the ruins was going to be a quick stop, but once we got there and saw how amazing it was, we decided to spend some time there... magnificent. Thanks!
awesome video! getting a jeep soon your videos have been real informative for me and fun to watch!
You'll love having a Jeep... so many new adventures you can take!
Great video!! It's such a beautiful place. I was there last year!
Thank you! Very beautiful place!!
Brad looks like you had an awesome time. Glad to see you weren't rained out. I wouldn't want to be behind the guy in the yellow jeep with the cross between a psychedelic led light show and two light sabers. That would drive me nuts, especially at night. :0)
We were a little worried about the weather, but everything worked out. Charlie always runs tail for the club, so not too many folks get to see his light show! LOL! Thanks!
this is the very reason I bought my JL Rubicon a week ago... We have a time share in sedona at the Hyatt Pinion Point, and we are there a few times a year... The Rubi is gonna open up some doors for use to see things we only talked about before... Im in Mission Viejo, would be great to hook up with you and Ovrland for some tips tricks and talk... Im new to the Jeep thing... Thanks again for the great vids Brad.
John... aka Socal.
Great video, would love to see more of this!
Thank you!
Looks like y'all had a great time. I PCS to Miramar in June and can't wait to join the club and go on these trail rides
First, let me just say thanks for your service! We absolutely had a great time. Hope to see you out on a run when you get in town!
dude i wish i would have seen this video awhile back, me and my lady took our 2016 rubicon rig to sedona, we went to schenbly hill only for it to be closed at the gate, we wanted to camp out there but this info video would have made that trip way better, I have to go back to broken arrow. -justin El Paso Texas.
I love that Anvil color.
The yellow accents on that White JKU are SHARP!
It's a very well built Jeep!
On our way...
Excellent vid!
Awesome video your camera and editing skills are amazing! much better then million sub channels
Thank you, really appreciate it!
Great video Recon on
Very nice to see that stock Rubicon getting down!
You don't need giant tires or a big lift to do this one. I did Broken Arrow with a stock 4Runner. Not the Pro model, so no lift. Devil's staircase gave me a few scrapes on my front skid plate, but that's all. It was pretty scary in a few parts, but turned out fine.
Should say loved this video going to plan a trip up there pretty soon
We were up in Flagstaff last weekend, it was all I could do to keep from turning off the freeway and heading to Sedona to run another trail... hope to go back soon!
Great video, the camera work was awesome. Man I wish I still lived in the U.S. I really want to check out all these trails you are doing!!!
Thank you! We are fortunate to have some great trail out here for sure!
great video like always!!!
Cool video. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Sedona is Definitely on my Bucket list.
You do a great job Brad with your videos....far better than Discovery channel....lol
Well I don't know about better than the Discovery channel, but I'll take the complement... thank you!
Waiting for Santa to come…decided to watch your video. Nice to see Jeeps that are not 100,000.00 dollars riding trails that everyone could run. Real deal! Thanks.
Loved this trip
All i have to say is your videos are so cool ! i might have to join the club and get my hard rock dirty.
Thanks you, really appreciate the complement and absolutely, you need to get that hard rock dirty!
Schnebly Hill is an excellent trail, they close it during certain months about halfway between Sedona and Flagstaff because of inclement weather.
Great video thank you!
some of your best work!
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
I have been waiting for this video!
Thank you!
Nice video! Love Sedona.
Man you guys have a great Jeep club. Wish I lived out by you guys.
We truly do have some amazing people in our club and good people are what make a trail adventure great!
Awesome video looked fun!
Thanks, its as a blast!
Back way to crown king and terminator are some pretty gnarly trails if you're looking for a challenge!
I am looking forward to getting back to Sedona, there are several trails out there I still want to explore. I'll have to add those to my list, thanks!
LOVED
Amazing
I Love it
Thank you!
Awesome rigs.
Agree... some nicely modified Jeeps in our group.
Great video!
Thank you!
SDJC family rocks... hi Joe and Brad
Great Video. It inspires me to acquire a Jeep 🙂
It's a great vehicle to get out and have some adventures in!
Slide Rock at Oak Creek Canyon is a good place for a picnic if you can get in.
Great off roading
LITTLE BIG JEEP 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
love the jeep groans. those are growing pains lol
Some of my favorite sounds!
This plays like a Jeep ad but I guess this is what Jeep owners imagine when they buy one. I have evaluated Jeeps and I notice only a special model is actually off-road worthy. Some of these Jeeps look modified. I would buy a Jeep but they are expensive and aren’t the best riding cars. Nice vid. I see how the mud defeats the tire tread design. First visit.
awesome,glad you guys had fun in sedona. now i want pizza.
We actually ate at Sedona Pizza Company twice while we were there... it was so good! Thanks!
Great video....
Awsome!!!!
