Krusty 60 year old Overlander here With my crusty old thoughts: Back in my day we would find a better trail " If you don't make that it's gonna be really bad!" We also drove around the rocks. When you have a spotter you're in effect: letting them drive your rig! I wouldn't let somebody drive my rig up something named Hell's revenge or even lesser obstacles! So the upside of Hell's revenge is you make it to the top The possible downside is you total your rig. I would continue my morning rent but it's almost time for me to go chase kids off my lawn. Have a Krusty day.
Some of the footage in this clip features the ESCALATOR! A NASTY obstacle on the legendary Hell's Revenge trail in Moab, Utah, where even the BEST spotter might be rendered useless based solely on your WHEELBASE. Awesome content!
I was about to post the same thing. Escalator is a whole different animal lol. That’s where the “purpose built” buggy in the video was that was about to flop over.
Thanks as always for the ride along! Great info. Common sense ain't that common anymore
After watching that black Jeep roll down Hells Gate about 15 plus years ago and many times since I added that obstacle to my bucket list. Then in 2013 I made the 2,200 mile round trip primarily to conquer The Gate. Man, sitting at the bottom looking up for the first time can be terrifying, especially after watching the Jeep roll video for at least a hundred times. I sucked it up and made the gate with no spotter or any vehicle ahead of me to watch. Out of the four Jeeps in my group that made the trek down I was to only one to brave that challenge.
your not lyin, its daunting looking up that trail for first time.
Wow Vince. After watching this video, your guts do impress me. Go your bad self.

As you both will know, some YT channels enjoy subscription levels well beyond their channel's content value, while others are under-appreciated and deserve a much larger following. Your channel definitely falls into the latter category, and I'm thankful you continue to devote the time and effort you do. So thank you - again - for covering the practical side of truck camping full-time so well.
Not a problem, Im not with the "in" crowd, so I get it
@@jailbreakoverlander the mighty don't need to be with the "in crowd" to do what we do 💪 Stay strong RFB and keep the vids coming.
@@jailbreakoverlander Your first channel is back I noticed it yesterday, the videos play. Just figured I'd let you know if you didn't.
Great spotters are worth their weight in gold.
Damn Ritchie, looking at that trail I would have never thought that you could actually drive up it. You have serious skills my man!
@Watachee Still Runningfree u sure did ream this guy for making a comment....so I ask: what have you done to further the cause of our freedom? Surly you have done SOMETHING if you feel justified in calling out this guy for cowardice...I mean other than living vicariously through Richie's expertise like most of us have been doing.
It's not Ritchie.
It's just his 80.
All the love RFB
@Watachee Still Runningfree chill a bit my man
Excellent video..🤘
Watching Rory Irish go up Hells Gate backwards in Trailmater was awesome. Dude is a wealth of off-road knowledge
yes he is
Another thing I've learned, good spotters are critical, but 1 spotter and only 1 spotter. When multiple people are yelling at the driver (spotting), they don't know who to listen to. That causes confusion when nerves are already frayed.
bingo
Good advice Richie slow and steady wins the day, and just simply stopping can save a lot of heart ache.
Another awesome video man 👍
I ran hells gate in December in a lifted F-150. It's no joke it's alot harder and steeper than it looks in the videos. Great info !!
the drop in to hells gate is scarier than the climb. IMHO
I put thousands into my 94 Cherokee and don't have the money to destroy it doing anything this dangerous. I rarely even take it off road.
@Watachee Still Runningfree
☝️🙄
Your an ass. Trying to rag on someone for what he did to HIS Jeep when you have ABSOLUTELY no idea what he's done to it????
Dude... get a life. 🖕🙄🖕
Still praying for you Big Guy.
Love ya. Keeping that Full Armor On.
🙏💙
Same as I just commented on bulldog's comment, it sure is good to see familiar names on here. Miss the community but I know we will meet on the other side of the veil. Much love in Yeshuah HaMashiach 💖💕
@@hollyholt1137 so very nice to see you dear sister...💙🌹🙏
#KeepFullArmorOn
I wish I was at my place in Arizona, this weekend, I would surely come out to Chino Valley. Just to hang out. Your truck is Badass 👍😎
I want you to know I was rock'n in my chair 90 miles to nothing......Old women usually go 9 miles to nothing when nervous.....Lets say I was 'OMG.....OMG...OMG' my daughter said what is happening now? They lol at me getting so intense with your travels....Be safe and GOD bless....
Another great Video! Thanks Richie!
Thanks again for the ride Richie
Awesome Richie first GREAT AS ALWAYS THANKS MAN
BTDT tipped on the driver side, slipped back, reversed got back on its wheels and drove up....no spotter....a lot of luck and 30$ for a mirror glass. Drive of a lifetime! ADRENALINE 😎🤘
Loving these recent videos,very high quality editing with fantastic footage and information 👌🏼🙂
Like they used to say "you're a tough cookie". Good editing. Thank you
Can't get over that guy sticking his hand out. Thats rollover 101.
Rory...dude is so skilled.
A rope can break. A u-joint can break. Its all a gamble.
GLAD YOU’RE COMING TO CHINO VALLEY, AZ!
This whole thing is like a lesson in motion ratio...
Great points and I appreciate the blunt and direct points about the factual dangers.
Guy from work...his brother was at the Gabby's Kitchen dirt lot meeting this am....I asked if he got a selfie with you.....response was "he's not that kind of guy"... No....really? Good stuff brother.
1) Driver: "hey, you want to spot for me? 2) Spotter: "Hail, yes" 3) Driver: " He's tellin' me to take the left track. Don't seem right, but I'll give it a try 4) Driver: "That was a hell of a roll...glad I kept my arms inside 5) Spotter: "Sorry, George, this is my first time west of the Mississippi. Maybe I'll learn how to drive a car one of these days.
exactly
Man. I am such a chicken. I would not do that for any reason whatsoever. hahha Liked the small changes in the intro. Nice with the bees... Overall it is great though I was a wreck the entire vid. Please don't prematurely get killed.
You find the most amazing places.

I'll never understand parents that bring their toddlers and babies, much less leaving them unattended, at off-road obstacles like _Hells Gate_ 😂
So happy that fella never lost his arm so close Richie you a legend 100 respect to you I miss RFB channels
www.bitchute.com/channel/juH53r3AyWVW/
watch.richiefromboston.tv/webtv-v3/
I agree 100% a good spotter is a must
Awesome, had me doing a little shuffling here n there lol, much love
Oh when I saw Moab I was going to watch for sure just in case but in the opening when you run forward carrying that r*f** I was Soo hoping you'd been at right place at right time and nailed Brian Laundry then snapped a great shot of a bad ass owl before getting back in your truck and finishing killer drive. Some women like romance novels, I like to think about scenarios like that. Call me crazy. Love ya! Be safe and keep these coming please! I don't get out much nor. Far right now so I m ever so grateful. Im 60 so there's still so many things that I haven't done, you help me a lot by letting me virtual. Virtual's a lot better than it used to be. Drones, bad ass cameras, so many people doing different things in different be manners and it looks like I'm right there, sometimes be feels a bit like it too. If it weren't for your videos, I would never have even thought of that as something one might try to drive up. A beautiful backdrop for photography, climb it on foot if you are like Mike, a windbreak in a storm, maybe even take off point in wind glider, but me, I wouldn't have had the imagination to think I'm gonna drive up that even if it costs me tens of thousands of dollars, an arm, or worse because when I get it right it'll be awesome as walking on the moon. That was a figure of speech by the way lmao that moon, that's a whole other story. 🌛
I just wanna know why you slowed down at 60. 60's awesome. So was 50's. By 80, I might have to worry about breaking a hip. Meanwhile ... LIVE it !
Trail mater , bsf and matts are some of my favorites shows
A lot of people are afraid of asking for a different spotter also because they don’t want to hurt anyones feelings. If you aren’t comfortable with someone absolutely choose a different person you’re more confident in.
Just a quick clarification. The trail is Hell's Revenge. The two most difficult (and optional) obstacles are Hell's Gate and The Escalator.
Yea I don’t do scripts. So I will always confuse misspell or misidenify it happens
wow brother good footage amd scenery, you are a good wheeler in my opinion. Well done thank you for important info and of course your time. many blessings
Love the video Richie 👍👍👍 that's crazy 😵😵😵
I've been in a Jeep when it floped in that same spot on hells gate, that hole will get ya! I think the entrance to hells gate is skechier than the gate itself but the best rollovers come from the Devils hot tub! Great vid Richie! I like the clips of the escalator!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Ford pros taking the Broncos and Bronco Sports out on hells revenge. At the off-road event by Ford I attended I was scared 💩 doing trails and terrain that experienced off-roaders like yourself would see as routine. I have such respect for the knowledge that a good spotter and driver that knows what they are doing and when to know its not a good idea to proceed. I think I’ll stick to simple trails, sand and snow. Thanks for the great video I love learning about all of this stuff.
Hello..
Heck of a climb..
God Bless..
Very informative and interesting video. Thanks. It’s scary that people will put their lives and equipment in the hands of spotters they may not know. They may not want to offend a spotter and blindly follow instructions which may be wrong.
Thanks for this video, Ritchie. I'm no expert at this stuff, but I can spot when a spotter is getting someone in trouble.
Yikes! Great Saturday night thriller! You guys just have to challenge the mountains, man against nature. I felt so sorry for that guy who totally lost his truck. I know your whole life is in that truck Richie. Take care of that baby and yourself. Much love and many blessings.💕
Your truck is a work of art! The love you put into it SHINES! God loves you too! Stay safe in this mad World…..
My brother and I spotted for each other. You have to know what the hell your doing! I always laugh at the ones who think a 4x4 can cut it!🤦🏼♀️LOL
Have an awesome time Richie..Be safe. Drive safe..
🕊❤🙏🏼 jmb🐈🐱
Although I don't drive and don't really have a great interest in cars/trucks, I thoroughly enjoyed this trip Richie.
I guess it's because I love ya after all you taught me from RFB .
God bless you, He loves you ✝️⚔️💜
nice
You're one of the craziest fun loving dudes I know. Keep on truckin.
You didn't have a spotter, you had a Rory! That's about the only way I would be trying Hells Gate. Sweet video!
Your videos are amazing !!!! I really enjoy them !!! They are breathtaking !!!!
As ALWAYS....
GREAT contact Richie. 🤘😎
Safe Travel's To You Brother!
✌😎🇨🇱
You drive your points home with incontrovertible evidence. This viddy is highly educational and very valuable instruction. As always, kickass work and I thank you!
Great video! Good spotting is very important!
Great driving Richie 👍
Terrific lessons - great content
Homie that placed his arm out about gave a heart attack 😅
Thanks for this. I’m going to Moab for my first time in a stock 2016 Grand Cherokee and am looking for good experiences and learning opportunities.
Had a SR 5 Premium, traded up to TRD ORP….don’t think I’ll use all of these systems but somewhere down the line I think, hope the vehicle will trade-in/sell better as ORP seems a more popular trim.
Bottom-line: most ppl get more truck then they really need. You’ve got guys pulling trailers w. heavy duty trucks and off-road rigs as daily drivers 90% of the time, 99% in my case…god bless America!
Scary, made the hair on my arm stand up. Can't imagine seeing it in person. Think I'd pass but would be great to watch.
I love a challenge. That looks like so much fun. I do see the value of a competent spotter. Thank you Richie. God bless 🙏🙏
Excellent tips brother!! Some spotters don't get it.
Thank you Richie , A great example of how details matter , Love you and your content for years .
Being my first time out in Moab and being by myself, as much as I wanted to do Hells gate, I ended up skipping it for this exact reason. Hard to trust just anybody to spot you out on the trails. That's cool they have the friends for wheeling though, never knew bout that.
Oh I hear you ... we are here for a reason.. and the damage thing was spot on..🙏
Great video. Bad spotters are a real problem now; especially with the recent influx of people getting into off-roading. People just assume they know how to get up an obstacle and in reality they do not. Some will walk in front of you and basically try to force you to follow their instructions. There really should be some sort of rules regarding who is allowed to spot for someone on these popular trails. Good intentions and an ignorant attitude to not make up for a person's injury or loss-of-life. I wish people would understand spotting is not just for fun. It's a very important job and you need to know what you are doing or else bad things can happen.
Thanks again Richie....! That's something for one to get nervous about trying to maneuver through hard places like that and some times not being able to literally see where you're going..! =)
Wow, nice!!! I can even see the ones who mess up!! You definitely need patience in all things on both sides!! And you got it!!! Love your vids!!! Your a good man brother!!! Peace be upon you!
That was a blast. I miss ya brother.
That's some nasty driving!!
Yet another superb interesting video Richie. I definitely would not have the gonads to attempt that!
My son managed Hell's Gate in a $500 '89 Geo Tracker with no lockers, no lift and no spotter. He had two off camber areas that made his heart race, but forced his way up.
It's not always the price of the rig, wheelbase length or not, power, torque, etc. But the experience of the driver and his knowledge of his vehicle. I've done most of my offloading alone and have to get out and study, debate which line then decide. That said I would not attempt Hell's Gate with the best spotter in Moab because I 've walked it several times and it is steep and cambered all in one.
Spectacular! Blessings from Italy richie
nice
Thanks for the demonstrations just in case I ever go out there.
I hope to be able and off road in moab one day good content Richie
Great video! I was nervous just watching! I can't imagine actually driving up there.
Heart attack hill is a great video of a bad spotter. Gave your vid a like
ty
Thanks for sharing this 😎
You made it! Not surprised
Appreciate your content, 🍻
W😳W!!!
I was at the edge of my seat.. 👍
Whew, time to take a breather. Always an adventure with a thrill watching you Richie. You and Rory are my favorites doing this. You guys are pro's. Take care and God bless you.
Hello brother's and sister's,
Southern Oregon getting waxed with that air pollution if you know what i mean. Thanks brother richie, always a good watch.
Your analysis of trails, ones many say are easy, and calling them what they are, no joke, is what everyone needs to hear. Never take these things lightly, even if you've just seen 10 people do it with no problem. This ain't summer camp people.
That “monster rig” and the white rover were on The Escalator, not Hell’s Gate. Both are found on Hell’s Revenge trail.
I was for sure you were going to show us a dude losing his arm. Cool video.
Brother we are very close to going home and I am looking forward to meeting you in the cloud party!!! Maybe sometime in heaven you can teach me how to do these types of adventures!!? LoL 🌈☝️✝️☝️🌈
You know the video is gonna be hardcore when then the narration is Bart Simpsons Aunts Patty & Selma!
Jokes are anly funny when they make a tad of sense, this one does not.
I think Rory is the best spotter that can ever be. Also one of the best drivers i've seen.
Thank you R for everything. God bless you always brother
Loved the video 💕
ty
Haha, been on another site listening to Richie, just bought a cruiser, and this video pops up
nice
I wish i could be there with you mate! Looks great fun!!!!! Love from England
stay free man
Dear Richie whawh a so hight voltage vidéo ! Big kiss 🍃🙇🍃
Isabelle 🌼
Great information!!! More people need to know their vehicle and their capabilities as drivers. People also need to check the expertise of those they are relying on. Thanks Richie!!
Good stuff right there. We are at the base of the Rubicon and yeah, you can get killed doing it
nice
I wonder if insurance companies cover damage like this. Hard to understand why anyone would risk a very expensive vehicle when they don't know what they're doing. Great footage.
True words! 👍
