I really appreciate these videos. It's cool seeing people doing these trails in normal-ish vehicles. Not everybody is on 37s with front and rear lockers. I'm in Colorado and these vids are really inspiring me to hit up some trails in my tacoma. Subbed!
Just catching up with many of your vids. I'm new to Jeep and just bought a '22 Cherokee Trailhawk with plans to put a 2" leveling kit and 32's on it. I am constantly impressed with what Sean can do in his Trailhawk! Thanks!
love the Cherokee footage. that's my favorite part because I own a Cherokee Trailhawk too lol. i really hope this channel grows because everything about it is really well done
Dylan Gardner Thanks man! Well, Sean is a big part of this channel so I think you’ll be seeing a lot more of his. Also Zach (Black KL) makes a return appearance in the video after next (Slaughterhouse Gulch) so hopefully he’ll be in more too! Also, the Colorado Adventurer who commented below has a white KL and will likely come along in a future trip or two! Heck, I might even get a KL as a second Jeep 😂. Well I really appreciate it... I don’t quite know how to market my videos, but I hope they’re useful and find an audience with people like you! If you know of people that may like it, feel free to share it! I definitely like making them and it’s forcing me to do more than my usual favorite trails (which I haven’t even done yet since they’re still snow covered). Well, I appreciate your support, thank you!
Hey bud nice video I'm the guy driving the red 2nd gen 4runner at like 4 mins, found out shortly after that rock that my cross member was about to fall out... Tightened that bad boy up and did way better the next day! Thanks for the great video/advice!
Great to hear!! Yea, I’ll admit I was surprised you had trouble, but was going on what I thought I heard you say about needing a regear. Still, you were awesome and I loved watching you go after it! Glad to hear all you needed was a little tightening and thanks for checking out the video! I know we passed you on Hackett (I’m editing it now) so I’ll see if I caught it on GoPro (if I did, I can probably put in a caption explaining your Cross member).
Wow you definitely captured the best moments of this trail. I also really enjoyed the commentary since it made everything very easy to follow along 😌 You don’t know it yet but this channel is gonna blow up real soon 🙌🏻 Keep the videos coming 🔥
I really appreciate it! I’m learning a little with each upload so hopefully I can keep making them better! Thanks buddy! 2 more filmed including Part 2, the most difficult Gulch.
This looks like a super fun trail. I enjoy the narration and the time stamps man good job. I for could not do this trail in my ranger most likely at least in the state that it’s in right now.
Wow dude, thanks for watching even before I could do my quick edits! 😉 Hey, did it flow ok? I mean like no missing or choppy scenes. I got to run to work, but I had a rough time uploading this one.
Dewie’s Colorado ya I think it flowed really good. Ya I have notifications on and was up taking y dog outside when I got it so I had to watch it. Been waiting to see the 3 part series
Thanks dude, I have it on for your vlogs/offroad vids! Yea, my report time is 8 but found out my start time is 845 so I watched it. Looks like what I had on the timeline... intrigued to see how the 4K renders look when UA-cam gets them processed. Thanks for the support buddy!
Dewie’s Colorado ya I didn’t notice anything weird when watching it. Ya I am usually up because I work at 7am so I wake up at 5:30 usually. Thanks man I appreciate it hopefully I can keep some content going and get some content on this channel going to so I can get to that 1k subs lol. And of course man I really enjoy your videos and you’ve brought back some motivation to get out on the trails this summer even if the ranger isn’t my first choice for wheeling. Still gonna get out there and enjoy it and learn along the way
Another awesome video. You have some skills for sure. Glad the kids were ok when they laid it over on the side. It looks like you had a blast. Thanks for sharing
Hunter Schiltz thanks so much! That really means a lot! I’m hoping to keep improving, but I think this is on the right track for how I want my videos to go!
Thanks! I really appreciate it! I’ll start putting Part 2 Hackett Gulch together tonight. I appreciate that, I’ll check out your stuff too when I get a chance!
Really good video. No worries on the commentary it was fine. Considering a Cherokee Trailhawk it looked pretty capable-is it lifted at all or just tires?
Thanks for checking it out and I appreciate that! It has like a 2in lift with 29.5in tires. He’s beefing it up for our future trails though... but it’s definitely a capable rig. The lift is just to help his approach and departure angles a bit.
I follow Outlaw 923 and definitely recommend his channel! We will eventually run a trail together, but because I focus on trail guides, my videos take longer to film. I don’t like subjecting that on others who just want to run the trail. Colorado4x4 and trail traveler are good Colorado Jeep trail channels too!
Fun trail! That was a tiny little sign for the county line if it was "closed". Local knowledge is always nice to have though! I would never dream of adding that much weight to the very top of a KL...these things rely on being tippy...and that makes it worse! I liked all the commentary, was much better than all the text boxes! Only complaint is it sounded like you were trying to be too dramatic the whole time. Take the way you are talking for your little 'outro' bit and use that as more of a template to how to talk for the commentary, just be your normal self and let it flow. Just talk...if you make a mistake or don't like how it flowed, you can always edit the audio! Also, think about adding all those time stamps into the description, or people have to keep jumping back and forth to see what the timestamp is that they want to watch.
Unfortunately, it’s confusing for most of us. The trail is supposed to be a loop through the river and connect with part 2, Hackett Gulch. Many still run it like that, but the forest service camps out on the loop and gives out tickets. There’s no signage at the river crossing either and I love water crossings (so it was hard to watch others do it from the bank). Generally the Colorado Springs wheelers say you can go to the river but not to cross it. That’s what we were going on as there’s no place to turn on the county line without going off trail. However, the guide books and trails offroad stick to the actual county line as the end points of their guides so I pointed it out. I likely won’t wheel this again until the loop is restored as it’s stupid to cut off the trail at the county line without providing a turning around spot. Sean uses that tent a lot, but he still seems to wheel it like the beast it is. I don’t think his is actually that heavy, but he’ll likely take it off when we do Mt. Blanca and Holy Cross later this summer, otherwise he should be ok. I’m very introverted so narrating and being on camera isn’t easy for me. However, I love off roading and I get excited about doing it. That narration was just excitement about sharing this trail with others. Still that was my first ever attempt at narration. I’ll likely try different things until I find something that works well... but it’ll take time through trial and error. I don’t know how to edit audio yet, but it’s on my long list of things to learn about making videos. I had trouble uploading (was supposed to be last night), got it to go before work this AM as I had people waiting on it. I just haven’t been home yet but I gotta add a lot to this video once I get home. Anyway, thanks for the insights and for watching this one!
@@coloradomallcrawlers I was hoping for Holy Cross last year, but that fell through. As much as i want to do it this year i don't think i'll be able to swing it on the Moab trip. (1 week isn't very much time when you have to factor in driving 2 days on each end) I attempted to get some people to join me while i was in CO last year, but was met with absolute hate. There is a difference between wheeling a harder trail with people who want to see you succeed, and wheeling with someone who wants to see your rig destroyed! As much as i was looking forward to being the first KL to do it, i'm anxious to see how y'all do! As to the editing, you are progressing, and it shows! Audio is easier than video, imo, as all you have to do is listen to it, and just like editing video, cut out the bits you don't like, then blend the remainder together to where it still sounds natural. Most of my commentary is all sorts of cut up, as i just talk until i get something that sounds decent, then cut out all the bad parts.
Fearless Trailhawk It’s definitely a concerning trail especially since it has gotten worse in recent years. I want nothing more than to see Sean succeed, but I absolutely don’t want another door incident or worse. We might scope it out with Kerry, the trail traveler, when it opens as he’s on 37s. I’ll say, I’m concerned myself and I usually think everyone over exaggerates difficulty, but Holy Cross is probably not an over exaggerated. I definitely need new tires before I run it. Mt. Blanca is probably over exaggerated due to the pucker factor and Jaws 2. Anyway, we’d definitely support you if you wheeled with us! We have good people here, now, some of the big rigs think we’re crazy but then we just walk up the tough obstacles so that helps. However, that’s the point of making these videos. I want to inspire stock wrangler owners to go play with it as well as show people how good the Cherokee is! I’m using Ferrite for the narration and I believe it has some decent editing tools. I’m staying home this weekend so I’ll likely watch some videos on using it. Likely will keep the same style for Hackett and Metberry since it’s a 3 parter, but I’ll try something different on whatever we run next. Probably slaughterhouse and rainbow falls since they’re currently open as far as I know. Thanks again!
I’m announcing trails via my personal Facebook page as it’s all last minute. We will plan some trips too… but I may not have a lot of spots for those as those have the full regular crew. My last minute trails usually have spots tho, especially weekday trail days. Weekend trails are getting a bit insane… I announced yankee hill about 30hrs before doing it and was turning people away. However, I want to wheel with everyone, I just don’t have a lot of time.
Ya Jesse I have the one I had before still on. I just got your stuff Friday and Monday. Gotta get tires and schedule a time to get the 3 inches and foxes on. Not quite yet but soon
@@jesselambros8520 you're gonna get a lot of it too . We have some hard as fuck trails planned this year. I'm gonna need this suspension upgrade big time
Important go fund me trying to save the gulches organized by CORE’s Marcus Trusty

Definitely! It’s more about the driver than the vehicle in my opinion. Thanks for watching and hope to see you out on the trails!

It sure is!
Excellent video, I love watching the Cherokee wheel with the rest of us!
Trail Traveler It was awesome wheeling with you and I hope people check out your awesome videos!
Great video !! Gotta run that trail. That rock step looks cool.
It’s a fun one! You’ll love it!
Cool videos. My 2015 Trailhawk will just watch.
Thank you!
Wow you guys have so much courage. I used to be able to do all this when I was younger. But I've gotten skittish in my old age.
It definitely gets our adrenaline running! You guys aren’t old, come on now :)
@@coloradomallcrawlers Mr. Martini is the adrenaline one in this relationship. LOL

I hope to meet up with you and Trail Traveler out on trails one day. Great content keep it up 🤘🏻🤘🏻
That would be cool!
Favorite UA-cam Jeep vids
Hunter Schiltz thanks so much! That really means a lot! I’m hoping to keep improving, but I think this is on the right track for how I want my videos to go!
Thank you for the video.
Well done Dewie!
Thank you!
Great video Dewie! These trails are a bit to intense for us, but love watching. Can't wait to get the Jeep back out there!
Can’t wait till y’all get back out there too! They’re only intense till you do them 😉. Thanks for the support!
Good videos pack with useful info! Thank you! Keep them coming.... I Subscribed!
Thanks! I really appreciate it! I’ll start putting Part 2 Hackett Gulch together tonight. I appreciate that, I’ll check out your stuff too when I get a chance!
Nice mix of rigs. Looks like the area sure hasn't recovered much.
Very true, all because of jilted love... apparently the forest service employee was burning love letters to start it. 🤦♂️
@@coloradomallcrawlers oh no, maybe she should try a fireplace next time.
Nice video. Let’s keep it up Dewey.
I wish I could take credit for it, but we had a friend filming for us on day 2! He let Sean and I focus on driving, he’s awesome!
❤❤❤ what a drive
It’s a great one, but unfortunately at risk. Thanks for watching!
Wow that's amazing! Take care and stay connected
Thank you for watching! You too!
That was a lot of 3-wheel action! Hopefully, I live long enough to see trees return to the area destroyed by the Hayman Fire.
Campground Recon yeah, Sean sends it! Same here, some is growing back, but it was so long ago and still pretty scorched 😐. Thanks for watching!
Great content! Keep up the good work dewie 👍
Thank you Omar! Hope to see you today! 🤣
Dewie’s Colorado not today because after watching your video, I’m at the Jeep dealership trying to get one!🤣🤣
omar bah yes!!! Let’s go hit the dirt!!
Dewie’s Colorado absolutely!!
Awesome video! I liked the voiceover (little easier to focus on talking when you aren't out wheeling)... Hope to go wheel with you someday!
Yeah, that’d be fun!
Niiiice! Love the commentary
Haha, thanks Tosha!
Dope video. I've done hackett but I need to run this one through sometime.
OXFOOT thanks buddy! It was so good running into you out there and I look forward to when we can film something together!
I love how u all help the guy out in the side by side. And yes this is why i comment on all your videos so UA-cam assholes algorithm is happy lol
I love comments! Let them flow 😂. I’m usually pretty good about getting back to them.

I’m pretty sure he is!
