Yes, we rode a combination of forestry roads along with the DNR trails - It was a fantastic time and I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the feedback about music. I always try to find ways to improve the videos and it sounds like most like the sounds of nature, the machine and voice over tracks. I'll keep that in mind for the future :)
East and south areas of the UP are sandy and flat. North Central and North West areas have some pretty impressive rocky cliffs and views. It ain't the Rockies but it's pretty rugged.
Awesome video!!! Duramax part was freaking crazy, just follow the black smoke piles. Lol. My son and I rode them same trails in March, first time in the upper peninsula with our Honda Talon. Two Hearted River mouth was beautiful. Thanks for sharing guys.
Hi Jason! Yeah, the duramax scene was unexpected! Those guys were great. They showed us some 'shortcuts' on those trails and man, did we have a blast following them. NOTE: Always be cautious when buying used trucks lol! Glad you enjoyed the video - we'll keep 'em coming as much as possible. I have another in the queue that is in edit and our Keweenaw trip video dropped a week or so ago. Thanks for watching!!
@@thesavagefam2791 I'm still thinking about creating a video with just routes but that will take some time to parse out the individual routes from the trip. When I get to that, I'll be sure to post a video on some of my favorite rides/routes so stay tuned and thanks for watching!
I've been toying with the idea for a while. Just need to set aside the time to do it. If you have GAIA as a navigation app, you can access them from a web browser but it's quite a bit of work to parse out sections, etc. I do have some plans to publish some routes this year so I'll work to record the routes as I go so that I can share them. Thanks for watching!
I've been ice climbing near Wawa in the canyon years ago - it's beautiful up there! What is required for trail permits in Ontario? Anything I should know before planning a trip up there? Oh and thanks for watching!
Love your the channel! I love when you narrate, Can you send me any discordants where we can drive on any beach of Superior west of Crisp Point? We're heading for a 3 day trip in eastern U.P. this weekend?
Thanks Jason, appreciate you watching! After leaving Crisp Point, you can jump on UP8 trail and follow it west, there are lots of kicker trails that lead to the beach that you can explore. As you've seen, I use Gaia for my GPS and if you have the subscription, turn on forestry roads, snowmobile trails and USFS trails - lots of things will pop up. The rest are on the west side of the two-hearted but you'll have to drop south to cross. I did just find some fun trails heading east out of crisp point toward browns lake - just take that trail west past the parking area at crisp point (can't miss it - it's the sandy area where cars shouldn't go). Browns lake is a fun are but the trails are tight so was for branches in the face. Hope you have a great time and stay tuned for the Keeweenaw trip video - I'm editig that now!
@@UTVBoondocker I use OnX seems pretty good. I did find some kicker trails that looks like it heads to shoreline but not sure if it's a big drop to shoreline or like the trail you guys had when you camped on the beach
@@jasonhenry2636 Best to explore and try it out. That's what we do when we are out and about. I have found some of the best trails are NOT the main trails (i.e UP8, UP9, etc.).
@@UTVBoondocker BTW how many miles on your General? Have you have anything major do wrong? You didn't seem to drive it hard so that's a good to make it last!
@@jasonhenry2636 just under 5k - I use it quite a bit on my property and trails of course. I treat it as good as possible, keep it clean and well maintained - haven't had any major issues so I'm very happy with it. I used to race MX so all my crazy days are complete :)
First, thanks for watching! Second, we have a couple videos on pack lists but we try to create updated videos with the latest tech and ways to pack - I have another one cooking for this summer but meanwhile, check these out: ua-cam.com/video/zCGB3YBcH5M/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/Z2v2j7Ddv0o/v-deo.html
Thanks, appreciate you watching! So I have not taking the trails around that area too much but there are a ton in the area that I've scoped out. I did ride my motorcycle all through that area and I can tell you that you'll want to stop at the Spectacle lake lookout point just northwest of Brimley. There is an great lake overlook and an ancient cemetery - lots of American Indian history in that area. Also something to consider if your carry a sidearm, may want to look into those laws. Anyhow, I hope you have a great time and I'm sure we'll have a ride over in that area at some point. That is one of the very few areas in the UP that I have not ridden in *yet*.
@@SuperSYMPATHIZER Ha, I didn't know that. It is a great area - that's why I bought property up there as a basecamp. I really love the west side but it's a LOOOONG haul to get over there to enjoy it. Thanks for watching!!
Great video!! Beautiful place you all went to. Couple questions I live northern Indiana is there a website or could you tell me is there maps I can get or what? I want to plan a trip up there this summer 2024 plus cabins to rent? Any help would be appreciated again great video
First, thanks for watching! If you are looking for maps, the Michigan DNR has a site with some maps (www.michigan.gov/dnr/things-to-do/orv-riding/where). I prefer to use a cellular enabled tablet (no service needed, just the cellular chip) or you can use your phone. The best apps that I've found are GAIA (with the subscription and pre-downloaded maps) or you use Andriod, VW Mapping is another popular choice. I find these are really helpful with navigation. If you are looking to rent cabins, I would suggest VRBO based on where you want to ride. I have several videos on the different areas of the UP to ride.
@@UTVBoondocker I have ride command on my Polaris I’ll start there first. I’ll watch your other rides keep going you did a great job. Keep it simple tell where your at rentals in the area etc… keeping the listener interested
Hi Marc! Thanks for watching and I use GAIA (gaiagps.com). Specifically, I use it on an Apple iPad tablet that is cellular enabled (but you do not need cell service on it to work). When you have a cellular tablet, it comes with a GPS chip that is always active. You could also use a phone but I like a bigger screen. In some of my other videos, you will find what I use to mount it so let me know if you have questions. It's probably important to note that I bought the premium subscription ($40 a year i believe) that let's me see all of the layers that are available which is REALLY helpful. You just need to download the offline maps before you go so that when you don't have a signal, you can navigate easily. Hope that helps you out!

Good video. Lake Superior is impressive. Didn't realize how flat the UP is. Thank you for not screwing up the video with music.

Awesome video! Hidden gems along the big lake, can’t beat it! Will gladly accept any .gpx files of this ride 😎
I've been thinking of creating a video with some routes....something to do when the snow is falling. Thanks for watching!
If u can send this ride to me I’d love to take this I’m trying to plan a month long ride this summer up north

Awesome video guys thanks for taking us along have a great day be safe.
Glad you liked it and thanks for watching!
Great job with your voice over. Man,those great lakes look like oceans.
Appreciate that and I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful thank you
It’s amazing UP there! Thanks for watching!
Nice video. Looks like you guys had a blast, we'll prepared for breakdowns
It was a great time - it's one of my favorite times of the year for sure! Thanks for watching Dale!
Awesome job brother!
Thanks for checking it out! Such a fantastic trip!
I recognize at least one of those places
They are all pretty easy to get to if you know where to find them :). Thanks for watching!
Do you plan to publish any of these long multi day routes? Would love to download and ride some of them.

Hey guys! Great video. Looking for extra friends for a trip like this? Looks like a lot of fun
These trips are always fun, ups and down depending on the weather but still a great time! Thanks for watching!
Need to branch into Ontario . Did a cross country trip to Wawa AB’s was awesome

That area is full of trails. It’s part of the Pabst blue ribbon original snowmobile trail. Hundreds of miles of trail

We’ll make it up there from Louisiana one day.
