    I'm relatively new to off-roading and yet I totally get you saying that your trip "was a bust". I was out in the mountains of the PNW and went down a road that was getting too sketchy to be doing by myself and running out of daylight. A couple sketchy situations later I made the call to turn around and even with the beautiful scenery I did feel like it was a failure of a trip at that time. However now I look back at the lessons learned and scenery I was able to enjoy and see it was worth it. Can't wait for more videos. Keep up the great work!

I remember 1973 / 1975 driving these roads in a Kenworth conventional with a trailer full of logs following me . Gets exciting when it snows and your chained up on one of those shelf roads . Keep on exploring.

    I was actually quite surprised when you opted to not cross the washout, only because you guys go through pretty much anything. It's a whole different story when you're solo though, and I feel better about me choosing to NOT attempt certain things when I'm out solo(which is most of the time). If you won't attempt some things, then I know I'm making the right call when I'm out there. Even trying to film content by yourself and without help from a crew is a task in itself. I bet you you appreciate your crew quite a bit. Great solo video man! Remember though, it's about the journey, so I definitely wouldn't say your mission was a bust at all. Keep them coming bro.
