This Overland trail is the Complete Package | Pearl Pass

- Pearl Pass is a Colorado local’s favorite Trail and I’m breaking all the rules by showing it. This is the third segment of what I believe is one of Colorado’s best overland trips, if not the best. Welcome to day 2 as we go from Crested Butte to Ashcroft on the way to Aspen. Day 1 took us to the historic and iconic Crystal Mill then through the Devil’s Punch bowl and up over Schofield Pass. This is Pearl Pass and the most difficult trail of the trip. We have even more water crossings, mud, plenty of rocks to crawl and the best scenery views of the trip. This is the trail to do in 2024 and I’m planning our own return. Yeah, it’s that good of a trail, but it has a short season and sometimes doesn’t open due to snow blockage. Help us keep this gorgeous and incredibly fun Trail open by being the awesome wheelers our community is.

This was so great.
I meant to put a pinned comment with your info, but instead I’m going to pin your comment. Treks On Wheels provided the 360 degree footage in this video and Garrett makes his 360 videos for those who can’t get on the trail to experience it in full. Definitely check him out and Garrett, thank you for being awesome!
@@coloradomallcrawlers thank you sir
Dewie, your narration, music, shots, and storytelling is just amazing. It also helps that we live in such a beautiful state. Can't wait for the next one.
Thank you! The next one if I can finish it is the second shakedown of the liberty. Shot in the Tennessee mountains, but parts reminded me of Colorado in this one.
Dang! I’m here two days early with my popcorn ready! 😂 Thought it was today
Lol
Fantastic video as always, Dewie!
Thank you and thank you for being an amazing Jeep club!
Dewie's videos are edited so awesome. Getting better and better....
It helps having Drew… he’s teaching me so much about editing.
These videos make it easier to continue the building process. My poor jeeps been on life support for 6 or 7 months getting all the new shiny parts but she's still not ready!
I really hope it gets back on track so you can hit the trails… you’ll get her ready!
@@coloradomallcrawlers she'll be ready by next spring for sure!
THANKS AGAIN Dewie !!!!! SOOOOOO STOKED..
Thanks for being a valuable part of the team!
THANKS BUDDY !!!!@@coloradomallcrawlers
REALLY Looking forward to whats to come for '24 !!!! Have a GREAT Holiday !!!!!
You too my friend!
Great work, Dewie! Nice clip showing what a difference lockers can make.
Thank you… most of the time I can get the off-road traction control to get through something, but there’s nothing better than mechanical lockers.
Love Paradise Divide, great video!
Thank you!
Another Wonderful video.
Thank you!
Another great video with excellent camera work! Adding yet another trail to the ever expanding list of trails i want to hit!
You should! Thanks buddy!
im here dreaming away, My rubicon don't get delivered till Saturday, so just watching some vids, til I can hit the trails.
This one is one of Drew’s edits… it’s really good!
thanks for another great video.
Thank you!
Hopefully get the chance to run this one next year, time and weather willing.
Run it from the other direction? 😉
@@coloradomallcrawlers definitely
It's the best in the state. Definitely camp it's way better.
Thanks for all these videos Dewie! Your videos really help when picking what trails I can do, especially now that FunTreks books are still from 2018.
Of course, glad they’re helpful! I’m still a big fan of funtreks for planning. For the most up to date trail info, I’ve found TrailsOffroad to be the best since they have wheeler reviews/feedback.
If you like water trails you should check this place called lower eagle down in Arizona!
Now on the list, thank you!
Great video! My sons and I are planning a trip out to Colorado 2024 in July. We have an overlanding trailer we will be pulling. Is there a website or something that would tell us what trails we can pull a trailer and which to not pull a trailer?
Thank you! Unfortunately there isn’t, it’s an experience thing in my opinion. I have a very aggressive off-road camper myself (I live in it). We’re planning on redoing this trip in 2024. I want to bring my camper. I’ve dropped it off ledges and taken it places I shouldn’t have, but I think this route would be too sketchy. Colorado trails are dangerous for campers due to rockslides, off camber on cliffs, washouts, snow, etc. The camper is usually best as a basecamp here. Now in moab, I’ll take it on difficult trails. Hope that helps… whatever you do, be careful and have fun!
@@coloradomallcrawlersGreat vid! What off-road camper do you have? Any videos with it?
It’s a DIY built by Zach Huck and Dustin. Here’s the walkaround. I’ve also filmed trail guides with it but were so behind on editing… I’m trying to get more done tho. Liberty is next then maybe a camper trail guide from me. ua-cam.com/video/kLAttBur4OY/v-deo.htmlsi=b6HoOfCg74pCSjFE
@@coloradomallcrawlers What’s your opinion on using a camper trailer as more of a base camp like you mention? Do you prefer to detach your camper and then come back to it for enhanced off road performance or would you rather take it with you? I see the pros and cons of both. I have a Jeep wrangler with a small teardrop camper, but I can’t take it off road. I’m wondering, where do you recommend or typically park your camper as a base camp when doing more technical trails? I’ll find out myself soon enough but learning from those with experience is always helpful. Thanks!
Man with all the snow last winter I don’t think pearl pass was open very long this year, a few weeks perhaps?
I’m thinking this year will be better, but we’ll see.
I do wish that Toyota would bring out a Wrangler competitor. NA V6, manual or automotic option, solid axle, 2 or 4 door option. Pay more for a 4.6L V8 option. The old FJ Cruiser has become too expensive to modify...
I agree, but they have yet to do so and they’re missing out on customers as a result.
Hell of mud shower lol
lol, my camp shower worked, but I didn’t exactly get clean either
trips like that make it hard i bet@@coloradomallcrawlers
So can i get a link to where i can get one of those Colorado Mall Crawlers tshirts?
I’ve produced all the stuff as one offs… we tried to get merch set up, but it has always fallen through. I think I may just buy some with my own money and eat the costs if I can’t get rid of it. Was trying to set up something that people could pick and choose what they got through a bigger UA-camr, but I’m not sure what happened with that.
Two(2) Moose. Not a Moose...
I love these vids but the sheer number of times you say "trail guide" drives me batty. 😂
Not sure what video you watched but according to the transcript there's not any point in the 24 min video that he says trail guide...
I appreciate the love of the videos, and I’m thankful for Drew looking into that. Honestly, I would have believed that I said it a lot… I say a lot of dumb stuff. If you look at older videos, I was always looking for another host. I’m dyslexic and talking has never been something I’m good at. Heck, I couldn’t even say Poughkeepsie so I didn’t use any clips where I was trying to say it in that video. Unfortunately, I couldn’t convince anyone so I’ve been trying to get better. This was shot in 2022, I believe I’ve gotten better this year and I’ll keep working on it.
@@coloradomallcrawlers To be fair I posted this comment before watching the video fully, and it was somewhat in jest. As a creator myself, I say things in my videos that make me cringe when I watch them back at times! Didn't mean to sound too critical, keep up the good work!
Please please educate yourselves on Tread Lightly principles. Blasting through water crossings and mud holes is causing significant erosion. This is not the way.
I’ve been a tread lightly member since I was driving a brand new TJ. This wasn’t that bad, but when people get on camera, they sometimes get a little overzealous. These guys do more trail cleanup than most, I just don’t show it but maybe I’ll start to stop comments like this.
Please keep it mind most of what you see is entertaining highlights. To judge anyone off 10sec snips is a bad look. Nobody here or that I associate with is anything but generally respectful on and off the trail. I myself spend whole days doing trail remediation and rescues.
@coloradomallcrawlers trail cleanup notwithstanding, blasting through water crossings and mud holes ABSOLUTELY causes erosion problems, especially in Colorado/alpine environments. This is not the way.
@@everymanoffroadadventures6082 this implies that erosion wouldn't happen naturally, this is a trail outside on a mountain. Your right a jeep going 5mph faster than you like will destroy this environment. Lol thanks for volunteering to go speed check folks on the trail. See you out there.
I rewatched it, yes, there was some fast water crossings… however clearly you don’t watch our videos. We often wheel pretty slow through Colorado trails, have NEVER gone off trail (thank you TrailsOffroad gps mapping), and have ALWAYS left a camp better than we found it. We wheel more than most so we will screw up sometimes, but we are pretty good here. You caught me in a bad mood so let’s go further. I take exception to comments like this as you’re simply trying to take a holier than you approach. I can guarantee you have screwed up on a trail… anyone who has been doing this for as long will have. As I said, I’ve been a tread lightly member since sometime around 2000 when I first started driving. I don’t like being told to look up something I’ve been financially supporting. I have stay the trail and trail advocates that are my friends who keep me in check. None of the people in my videos are trying to destroy our terrain… we are all Colorado wheelers. I’m also one of the few UA-camrs actually advocating for trails and until recently, I was the only one introducing people to CORE who is deep in the fight to protect trails including from ourselves. If my 11 on and 4 days off actually happens, I’ll be joining CORE on trail repair days as that’s something I’ve done before I was on call 24/7 (not with CORE tho, so I’m excited to see them in action who does it by the book). I hope you’re gonna be doing the same… I’d love to see you at a trail workday!
