I stumbled on this video looking for ATV expeditions and wow. I always assumed Idaho would have miles and miles of trails. Looks like a best kept secret for sure assuming that is still the case 3 years later. I ride in central new york so the thought of virtually limitless ATV legal trails and roads WITH trailside camping options sounds like heaven! Thanks for uploading.
We rode this same area a few months back. Such an amazing place to ride ! Slate Creek was absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to get back up and ride this area again.
Looks like a blast! I highly highly recommend maxxis bighorn tires for your riding! They are much tougher than stock tires and will ride and grip much better.
Thanks guys! Great ride and brings back so many many memories of that area. Hope the Spokane members can make it over that way. Lots of work making this 10 min video. Very nicely done. Look forward to your next Overland Adventure!!!! Nyroc
Hey are you still here on UA-cam? tried your link and no luck I would love to get a copy of the route you took in North Idaho wow what a great trip.. thanks
If you still have footage from this trip, it would be awesome to see separate videos for each day, hopefully 30 minutes plus, as I mentioned in a comment on another video. I rerun all your vids periodically 🙂
As a Southern Idaho resident I'm going to have to put Northern Idaho to my list of rides I need to take. It looks really beautiful up there. Great video 👍
my favorite trail near wallace, idaho starts on the north side of the champion creek bridge, splits, and ends at 2 locations, both on the old railroad track which is now a great atv road.
Hey ATV Overland, I have to say, as an avid ATV'er, I really enjoy your videos. The trail systems you show are just spectacular. My only gripe is that I wish the videos were longer lol! Keep up the great work and Happy Riding!!
I live and ride mostly in Southern Idaho and Northern Nevada. Somewhat different kind of trails (dryer, for sure), but fun and exciting. Your video is outstanding. One of the best I've seen on UA-cam. I will have to head north in the near future and check out the trails "up there." I'll be sure to check out your site.
we own property on the st joe...its gorgeous...and luckily this year i got me a atv to do some exploring..we are right on the old railroad grade tooooons of old logging roads to explore.crossing that bridge you did at marble creek you were probably 1.5 miles from our property.
Well done video. Amazing area. Scenery is spectacular but a tiny bit turned off on how easy the trails are. I think I would go for the scenery but try to find some challenging trails also. Anyway, thanks for making this video!
I would like to see a video on you reviewing your four wheeler’s and gear set up. Interested in what type of tote you have on the back of your four wheeler’s and fuel cans
I saw that you had an issue with the snow which you said kept you at lower altitudes. What dates were you riding. I see the video is posted in June. Thanks and great videos
Lucky is right. Thanks for compliment. Can't wait to return, hopefully next summer. Our trip this year was cancelled due to the amount of snow still there late June.
Awesome video going to utv the whole state from July to August! Just was wondering if there's a lot of 50 inch or less trails? Or is there plenty of trails for UTV's over 50 in wide? Happy trails!
Will be an awesome adventure. In Idaho, it's pretty much 50 inch trails or forest roads. But, some of the forest roads are more like wide trails perfect for UTV's.
@@danharris5873 It'll be great either way you go. I would review the forest service motor vehicle use maps for the area you are going to and determine what kind of trails you are going to be riding. It could be that the area you are visiting doesn't have any 50" trails, so it might not matter. Riding the forest service roads would be fun as well.
Great video, but I think we would turn it into a 6 day ride, we like to putt along and rest up in camp in the afternoons. I'm surprised you made it through the snow this early in the year, must of been some pretty good route planning to pull this off.
Thanks for commenting and watching. Since this was our first trek in Idaho, we had one mission, cover as much ground as possible. Given that, we didn't start picking out camp sites until 8:00 +. Actually was planning another night / day on the trails, but some thunderstorms were pushing in, so we had to cut the trip short. We were lucky we could get through the snow. Just melted enough to expose some bare spots which definitely helped. Can't wait to return to Idaho later this year.
Yes, it's grizzly country. It never used to be when I grew up there, but I have seen several over the last few years. There are lots of wolves now, too.
great video guys, how did you animate the map in the beginning? i want to make a video like this for a trip i am going to do soon. what editing software do you use as well?
Idaho and Utah are the best for riding. I'm using a Samsung tablet that is IP67 rated. I use BCN for tracking, and the Magellan TRX app for following a route / track. Have fun!
@@patgenier1965 BCN is Backcountry Navigator, which is the GPS software. You can download a free version. It takes a minute to get used to the interface, but it's the most flexible solution I've used yet.
I'd love to load up my quad and spend three days riding the backcountry. Unfortunately, it's a 31h drive from my driveway to the starting point. Maybe one day........
Definitely put it on your list. We didn't even get started in Idaho. So much riding, just like Utah. We are hoping to spend several weeks there next summer. Thanks for tuning in.
It's a Sumsung SM-T360NNGZXZR, which is an IP67 rated tablet, and it has pogo pins for charging when in the RAM powered mount. Great combo if you can still find them. Thanks for tuning in.
Hello Marie. I was running a combo of Magellan's TRX and Avenza maps during this trip. Now I am running backcountry Navigator. We have supplied the GPX files for reference on our website, which you can import into your Garmin GPS. Enjoy!
IF you are under 50", you are good to go. You could mirror the trails by staying on the roads, but you would be riding roads all the time. The Slate Creek Trail is not limited to 50" BTW.
Hello Tony. No video yet because I've been using various GPS programs to figure out which one I prefer. The one used in Idaho video is Magellan's TRX app. Without a paid subscription (which I don't have), the features are limited. I'e been using Backcountry Navigator (Pro) lately and it's winning out due to the flexibility. The GUI (user interface) isn't as clean as the TRX, but it's flexible. GPS app Video is on the list. Thanks for tuning in.
It's a Sumsung SM-T360NNGZXZR. Got it because it's an 8" IP67 rated tablet, and it has pogo pins for charging when in the RAM powered mount. Great combo if you can still find them. Thanks for tuning in.
Hello David. I (Clay, Kingquad) carried 6 gallons, but only needed to use 4 gallons to get to Wallace where we refilled. The other rider (Grizzly) carried 4 gallons. 4 gallons is plenty for this loop. We had intended to do more exploring up in the mountains on 50" trails, but the snow kept us pretty low with a lot more road riding than anticipated. It was a blast regardless, and a great intro to Northern Idaho for us. I'm working to recreate the route for sharing purposes and will publish it to our trip page; atvoverland.com/atv-camp-trip-northern-idaho/ Let me know if you have any other questions about the trip and thanks for watching.
Too bad they advertise this. It's getting overcrowded with atv and campers here. Back when I was a kid and grew up here in N Idaho it was an awesome place. Now it's crowded with folks recreating.
Guys, hate to say it, but its happening everywhere. I can say the same thing for Az, Pa, Al, Tn. I've been riding since I was 12 in 1985. Times have changed.
I guess you don’t like to share? Well maybe I will promote this video to everyone I know so they can plan an ATV trip here. We have been doing the Hatfield McCoy trails, but looking for something new. It’s good to share, and tourism brings money to your community. See you soon!

great adventure
Are there any quads that are less likely to roll than others?
Well prepared video.Successful!
Thanks. Just checked out your channel. Sub'd and looking forward to catching up on your adventures. Thanks for tuning in.
What type of GPS are you using...looks nice!
Great video! I love camping out, but isn’t that grizzly country? Do you take bear spray and a gun?
Thanks!
Only seen black bear, from a distance. Never been an issue.
Yes, it's grizzly country. It never used to be when I grew up there, but I have seen several over the last few years. There are lots of wolves now, too.
Beautiful !
Omg would love this
2019 seems like a good year to get out there! Thanks for watching!
Man, I'd love to do this but I'm way to afraid of Sasquatch. I know he lives out there somewhere.
great video guys, how did you animate the map in the beginning? i want to make a video like this for a trip i am going to do soon. what editing software do you use as well?
Thanks for watching. Yes, we make the map animations using Adobe After Effects. Have a great ride.
@@ATVOverland cool, thanks so much !
Moving to southern Idaho this summer, can't wait to hit the trails. BTW, what GPS are you using?
Idaho and Utah are the best for riding. I'm using a Samsung tablet that is IP67 rated. I use BCN for tracking, and the Magellan TRX app for following a route / track. Have fun!

There's good riding in every state.
What GPS are you using there mounted to your rack and does it track your trails
@@claycopeland4283 oh ok thanks awesome video can’t wait to see more camping videos
im curious what gps unit that is? and mount.. what a beautiful display
It's a Sumsung SM-T360NNGZXZR, which is an IP67 rated tablet, and it has pogo pins for charging when in the RAM powered mount. Great combo if you can still find them. Thanks for tuning in.
Love this! I've collected dust on some of those same trails near Avery. I have a question for you, what did you use to create your map animation?
Yep, the dust is everywhere. We edit the maps in Adobe After Effects. Thanks!
Enjoyed the video! What "trail software" did you use for your gps, and is it compatible with Garmin?
Hello Marie. I was running a combo of Magellan's TRX and Avenza maps during this trip. Now I am running backcountry Navigator. We have supplied the GPX files for reference on our website, which you can import into your Garmin GPS. Enjoy!
Can you ride a Polaris RZR on these trails?
Would you say that you need a 50” wide max machine to connect most of these trails?
Yes. Most of the "trails" are listed as 50", and there were several spots where you definitely would not want to be wider. Great riding!
Can a side by side pulling a small camping trailer make this route? Are the trails wide enough?
IF you are under 50", you are good to go. You could mirror the trails by staying on the roads, but you would be riding roads all the time. The Slate Creek Trail is not limited to 50" BTW.
Any chance to get a map of this trip?
Ohhh, good idea. Yes, working on posting more GPX files in the coming months.
What program is your gps? I’m sure you probably have a video that goes over it, if you do I’d love to get the link

Hello Curtis. It's the "Black Widow ATV-CB-8015 Locking ATV Cargo Box" found on Amazon. Thanks!
@@claycope thanks Clay for all your time.
This ride looks like it was a blast. Hope to make it that way at some point.
What is the name of the navigation/s map you are using?
Was using Magellan's TRX app. It's a clean GUI if you can work with the restrictions of the program for the free version.

What do you do about bears
Haven't been an issue so far. We'll let you know if we encounter some. (We do carry bear spray and other protection devices)
