The wind! THE WIND! We packed up and and left early after a windy, sleepless night just today! Haha! The comforts of home!
I'm from Alpine, Ca and Anza Borrego and the Yuha desert are my places I hang out the most. Very good video BTW! Cheers!
Love it! Took the kids for a day trip last spring and am so looking forward to camping there this year!
Thanks for sharing the trip. I hope i can join soon.
One reason why this trip is best done south to north is because the Diablo Drop-off is supposed to be one way only, downhill. Four wheelers going up the drop-off is what digs the deep ruts, probably annoys the park service.
You’re 100% right. We specifically call this out in the route guide on our website and it was a mistake in our part. Technically, there are three sections that are uni-directional: Diablo drop-off, Borrego Mountain wash drop off, and volcanic hills near pipeline slot.
@@OverlandTrailGuides But I also should have said, overall it was a very nice video, enjoyed watching it.
Agreed. Great video, but I would suggest editing to add a text overlay that calls out the one-way as some people who watch may not read the comments or visit your website.
I was going to say the same thing.
Looks like a great trip
Awesome video, thank you
I was born and raised in hemet in the 70s and 80s. We went thru that area alot growing up. Back in the 80s it was 4 wheelers though.
This is a very diverse cast of vehicles! It is how I like to see it! If you have more videos like this I'll sub!
Just subbed! Love the videos
Dude in the 2wheel drive ford is one brave man!
I took my 2 wheel drive 94 xj in there stock tires and all I made it through fine got stuck once because the sand and high centered the diff jacked it up put some rocks under it and was ready to hit the road again I camped by Diablo drop off
Great coverage of your run. We've been off-roading throughout Borrego, Ocotillo Wells for many years. We also frequent The Yuha Desert due south of Plaster City & south of I-8, "The Superstition Mountains" N'East of El Centro and Truck Haven, due east of Borrego near Salton Sea. What radio platform do you all use. We're all setup with GRMS now and really like it. Again, great vid.
Box Canyon has some really nice slot canyons! Not many people realize it...
What is the thing that hangs off the rear tire on the rack?
Nice
Has anyone been to AB since the flooding earlier this year? Wondering what the roads are like these days.
I was there a few weeks ago and conditions were good. I did the portion of this route from Hollywood and Vine over to Diablo to Fish Creek and out to the Palisades.
Which of these trails are considered easy so I could do it in my AWD SUV??
I only camp in Baja and its usually just wild camping or maybe pay a guy 5 dollars to camp in his land, can you camp in this trail without issues or only in designated spots with reservation in advanced? Thanks
Loved your video. A group of us is heading down there on May,15,3023. Any chance you could give me a more detailed trip itinerary from south to north. We’re driving from Monterey county.
It's all on the webiste including gpx files --> www.overlandtrailguides.com/post/anza-borrego-discovery-trail
Great video. At 13:35-ish - do you think a full-size truck will make it through there? I saw the Tundra squeezing through. I do have a F250 Tremor, but not sure how wide that Tundra is in comparison.
Looking for this info as well!
@@87motoring same
Fyi for any future viewers they're both 80" width. I would just question if the extra length will cause an F250 to hang up a bit.
Can this be done with full size truck without too difficulty?? like with F150 4WD AT tires
Definitely!!
at 6:22 which trail is this ?
🤙🏻👌👌👌👌
I hear " high clearance " all the time. What did you consider higg clearance?
2" lift with 33" tires. Recommended for the section through Volcanic hills, but I'm sure an expert drive could make it through there fine with a stock 4runner.
FYI, the ABDSP is not in the Mojave Desert.
You are correct. It is technically classified as part of the Colorado Desert.
That Tundra makes it look too easy

Note to self: probably not a good idea to camp where there are windmills. Might mean there tends to be high winds…
Lame Ass Comment!
Well you got a jeep prepared yourself to re design it to be capable
WATCH OUT FOR SNAKES!
Fun trip but no fires in the dirt. All campfires need to be in metal containers by law, too many people scarring up the landscape.
Thanks trail nazi 👍
