Are you thinking about driving the famous Pott's Mountain Jeep Trail? Do your skill level and vehicle capabilities line up for a great or disastrous day on the trail? Check out our trip on a very wet day on this famous offroad trail in Virginia. We take an LJ on 39s. and JL on 37s over the famed obstacles named Rocker Knocker, The Ledge, The Rock Slabs, and Poser Rock. We were all wet and muddy, but we finished unscathed!
Potts mountain is a blast. A lot of bear hunters use it during the winter keep that in mind. It’s fun to duel sport and a stock Jeep can make it but you will not be able to do all the obstacles but you will have fun. The summer is the driest but rattlesnakes are everywhere. Great trail we ride it a lot being 15 minutes from the house
Good to know. Thanks for the information.
Would a stock Tundra TRD make it, in your opinion?
@@mrsgrasty maybe long wheel base trucks have problems. I know we tried in school with a 2001 Chevy 2500 4 door 8 foot bed. I dented the door and bed side and bottomed out alot
@@JDubbsadventure thanks, I think I'll pass.
@@mrsgrasty it’s a blast on duel sport
Love the filming, voice over, and over all pleasure of the video! Your camera man did will! Would love some pointers!!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words. The only advice I have is make a lot of mistakes and practice as much as you can...and watch a lot of youtube videos from the professionals lol. - John
First time seeing your channel!
Love the useful detail about the trails in your videos 👍👍
Thank you, where are you from?
Hmmm that’s tempting and not too far from me… love the visuals, great job Ryan!
Let us know what you think
Great video!! This was a great trail...and free!! Did it as part of an 'East coast badged trail loop', it was perfectly positioned between Peter's Mill and Bearwallow. Why Peter's mill is badged and Potts Mt. isn't is a mystery! 35", locked in the front, and winched 3 times (also a wet day), this is a true Jeep trail. Did the whole loop as a solo vehicle which is NOT recommended, but it was a bucket list trip and i'm old, soooooo...
We completely agree! Potts was one of our favorites when we were mapping Virginia. It is a true Jeep trail and should definitely be a Badge of Honor! If you took any pics, head on over to the website or apps and leave a trail review. We would love to see them!
Another nice one. I can't wait to get up that way for my little channel jeepNdirt. You guys really inspire. Thanks.
It is a great trail...one of our favorites in the East Coast. Enjoy!
Great video! Excellent quality footage and editing, too! Really enjoy watching your content evolve and improve over the years…keep it up!
That means the world to all of us here at Trails Offroad. Thank you for watching and for the support!
And great video and looking rigs!
Thank you, and thanks for watching.
One of our favorites! Nice video!
Potts is an amazing adventure. We can’t wait to go back on a nice day! Thanks for watching!
This trail is badass. Can’t believe I didn’t hear about it before e
If you have any photos, please share them on our website. We would love to see them.
Daddy long legs is one of my favorite all time Jeeps
It is quite the rig! Rodney is a great guy.
Beautiful trail with the fog
It is a beautiful part of the country. We love Virginia!
this youtube channel is so awesome. i like all the videos 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching
Love the Fall foggy temp
thank you for watching
I was kind of pissed off the main road that isn't supposed to be a Jeep trail was about as bad. I hadn't been up there in years, and you could easily drive through. I was hitting deep mud holes the whole way and was in a Jetta. I made it through to Potts Creek, but the whole time I thought I was going to get stuck, and nowhere to turn around to go back.
That definitely sounds like not the kind of day trip you'd be expecting to have in a Jetta! Although Potts Jeep Trail is definitely the hardest in the area we absolutely also found some decent mud holes on some of the nearby tracks that could swallow up a tire easily.
Maybe I missed it - but this is an up and back trail right?
All these details and more are on our website. You can find the link in the video description above.
Is it stock friendly? We have a 2024 jeep wrangler JL
Head on over to our website or our apps for this full detailed trail guide and many, many more! www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/1580-potts-mountain-jeep-trail
So you have to main road to get back to the bottom if you haul in on a trailer
You can find this information and a ton more on our website or app. You can find the link in the video description above or search Potts Mountain TrailsOffroad in Google.
You definitely took the blue jeep on bypass at the Stacks and definitely didn't say anything cause it's illegal
It's hard to winch and take video at the same time. Take a look at our trail guide for the legal route (www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/1580-potts-mountain-jeep-trail). Thanks for watching.
At the 0:30 mark, the blue Jeep is on the stacks 🤔
@@boudreau1020didn't even notice that
I think on a dryer day, he would have easily made it. Wheeling in the rain is tough, no question about it. How modified, if at all, was the blue Rubicon?
The blue rubicon is on a 2.5" lift with 37's. Thanks for watching!
Turn the music down.
Noted
never mind...my 2015 RDX wont handle this trail.
Depends on how much you like your RDX. Thanks for watching!
great video. yall should do flag pole nob in va.
Thank you for watching! We have a trail guide for Flagpole (www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/2349-flagpole-knob) but not a featured video. Virginia is an amazing place and we can't wait to get back!
My favorite part was when you never actually rated it…
This entire trail guide and thousands of other fully detailed trail guides are available on Trails Offroad (our app or website). Thanks for watching!
What is a “mount-en”?
At what time in the in the video?
I think it's funny it's called a "jeep" trail and they have a Samurai on the trail sign.😅
There is 70's Buicks on signs all over California but says Jeep Trail hahaha
You all missed the best part of the trail. The stacks ! The best view off the mountain on a stacked rock cliff.
It was our impression that The Stacks was the mandatory hardest obstacle along the trail (the one with the illegal bypass), but it sounds like that may be incorrect. Whereabouts are The Stacks you are talking about? That was our first time on the trail and we had to take a few educated guesses on the name of each section.
They are around the halfway point near the open fields. A small hike through the woods from there and then your standing on rock cliffs with some of the best views@@Trailsoffroad
Nice easy trail, 👍
Ha! Very easy! Thanks for watching
