The segment that starts at 9:17 just fills me with such a sense of peace (the scenery, the movement, the music, everything). I keep it bookmarked to come back to whenever I need calm and contentment.
Nice to see you stretching that Outbacks legs. It may not be able to run “Metal Masher”, but seems to be able to do most reasonable trails without too much trouble. A road trip machine that can do most trails, but still knock out highway miles in comfort. I’ve taken all my Subarus (4) on multi thousand mile road trips. Did 4500 miles from Florida to Maine and back last October in the Crosstrek with roof top tent. Other than the I-75 blast to skip the southeast flatlands, the rest of the 11 day trip was minimal interstate (maybe 5%). Scenic byways, mountain roads, blue ridge parkway, back roads, dirt roads, forest roads. I followed the mountains all the way up and back. I went through Great Smokey Mountains NP, New River Gorge National Park (the USA’s newest National park), and Acadia NP, 6 state parks, 13 states, multiple National and state forests, and wildlife management areas. I had one campsite reserved the second night at Abrams creek campground in GSMNP. All other camping was wild or on family property (3 nights). No wife or kid on this particular trip due to thanksgiving travel plans/work schedule conflicts. It was just me and my copilot Bruno (my dog). It was an amazing trip where I had done countless hours of scouting on google maps, with plan c’s for my plan b’s, but relied more on the compass than maps for the actual trip. A dream trip with a loose schedule allowing for detours to scout places google maps cannot fully reveal. I found some of the most intense soft roading I have yet to do. While I do not seek out the boulders, I did quite a bit of exploring. Only one trail I deemed too intense for my stock Michelin all season tire equipped vehicle to attempt. 2 stability/traction control events when a wheel was lifted, and one single underbody scrape were the only “dramas”. It was a trip of a lifetime for me and my dog. We went on the best walk/hike of our lives in Acadia, on a perfect day with peak fall foliage. We camped creekside in multiple states. Steaks cooked on cast iron skillet on coals from a campfire almost every night. This trip will make the highlight reel for my life. Three months after this trip my dog had developed a cancerous tumor on his neck, it took him down hard and fast. I put him down Jan 26, 2022. I knew he was getting older, and I felt while on the trip that it might be my last big trip with him, but I had no idea he would be gone so soon after. I will always look back on that trip with the fondest of memories. I’m grateful for all the adventures my Subarus have taken me on. Although your daughter is to young to remember these early trips in her life, it is nice to see you making good family memories that will be awesome to relive when she is older. I have been enjoying your adventures in your Outback, and I look forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing.
That was probably one of the best comments we’ve ever received. Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your adventure and we’re sorry to hear about Bruno, but it sounds like he lived a good one! We appreciate the kindness and are extremely grateful for you taking time to watch what we create. This for us is about memories with our family, taking people along and receiving gracious comments is just a bonus!
Ever since I decided to order a Wilderness I have been watching your videos, stunning footage. My Wilderness is somewhere between the plant and my home in Alberta, Canada. Can't wait for it to arrive, keep up the excellent videos!
The drone work was awesome , fantastic captures . I have 2009 Impreza and 2024 Outback I love them both . I've been flying the Avata mostly lately . Did the Outback live upto your expectations ? Great video love to go there sometime .
We love Moab too. It's always nice to have a destination that you're sad to leave at the end of a trip. We feel that way about Moab and Kanab. We come back home ready to plan the next trip.
Wow. Haven't finished watching more than 3 minutes, but just had to pause to say, Moab is really beautiful and that is some stunning HD drone footage. Well done.
@@roamingwithjosh thanks a bunch!! You have great content and we love watching your videos. We sat this weekend for about 4+ hours and watched your videos. We love the West and the Moab area so we enjoyed them. We also have Subaru's and Jeeps. 👍🏼
That’s my favorite video of yours so far! Keep them coming! The family, the places and the memories are like heaven on earth! Keep them all close. ✌️&❤️
Good stuff. Beautiful family. Do you think a stock off the showroom 2023 OBW weighed down with a iKamper Mini RTT and gear can handle Hurrah Pass and Chicken Corners. I noticed your OBW has larger tires and maybe a lift.
What a great video. And love the drone footage. What a spectacular place to off-road. Great couple, and such a happy baby! She'll be loving Moab as she gets older too! She already does.
Dude.... Just got home Friday 3/4 from Moab.... I have been going out There for years., I send the month of July there and try a week or more over the winter... You are totally correct on its the only place I head home from and become depressed... I always take 128 out to Rt-70... That's such a a bitter sweet way out... Hurrah is the first trail my daughter drove in here Jeep.. So I have a place for that trail in my heart.. ... If you you have not been to Antcline overlook, that is a must... It's directly over the top of Hurrah looking. Down on the entire trail...
This is hurrah pass. You can make it all the way down to the catacombs and then come back or take it around to chicken corners. All of those are doable in the OBW
For a variety of reasons, I've decided not to replace my truck when it comes time for a new vehicle. MPG, cost, etc. If I got something like an Outback Wilderness, I'd instantly have better MPG, better comfort, still have a good deal of off road ability (I'm not interested in 'serious' off-roading, but this trail you took is a great example of what I'm OK with an this car looks great for that). I'd be in it for a long-term purchase. Maybe 15 years or more. I'll keep my truck around just in case I need it around home for the bed (picking up stuff at a hardware store, etc). I do photography as a hobby, so I could see myself being able to drive that trail and stop in great places to shoot.
Amazing drone footage of Moab. I just ordered an Outback Onyx XT from Subaru and am awaiting delivery. My partner drives a fully outfitted and lifted 4Runner for our overlanding adventures but we plan on using the Outback for lighter offroading, National Park treks, etc since I'll be getting MUCH better gas mileage. If you haven't been I highly suggest camping at Alstrom Point above Lake Powell or Cottonwood Canyon Road in Utah. Some amazing camp spots and fun offroading to be had just about anywhere in the area, just as stunning as Moab!
Awesome stuff and we definitely agree with the gas mileage situation as well as lighter off-roading. We have camped at alstrom point several years back and it was breath taking. With our crazy toddler we’ve had to choose other less dangerous camp spots because she like to explore and the sheer ledges are the best option for us. Thanks for the tip on the other spot and we will definitely be checking that out!
12:53 is the reason I give you so much respect, have your channel “belled 🔔 “ and will continue to watch your channel. A lot of people won’t pick up on what happened, but I guess because you came from driving a Jeep, you have to keep it real. How do you feel about the torque converter speed stall?
We appreciate it more than you probably realize! I hate the torque converter. One thing on the list is a torque locker to hopefully eliminate that issue.
I've been debating trading in my lifted ram for an OBW for a hot minute because I already have an 89 Toyota for the most uncivilized roads and a 13 mpg City daily driver has gotten old. Yall are definitely making me lean towards doing it
We traded in a Wrangler Rubicon for this thing and it definitely can't go the same places, but you already have a vehicle for the rough stuff anyways it sounds like. One thing I will say, when I drive my power wagon people respect me a lot more on the road lol
Awesome video! The positive energy shared in this video combined with the adventurous spirit is refreshing. You guys are awesome. Like you, I find Moab to be such an incredible place to be. I too feel somewhat depressed whenever I leave Moab after visiting that majestic place. Jehovah God, and His creation is truly amazing and I thank you for sharing it at such a professional level in your videos. 🙌🏼 Btw, that outback is impressive. I'm checking them out more because of this vid. Blessings to you and the family.
Spectacular and beautiful views, Once I get my 99 wj done, going to have to get down there and see it for myself, keep doing what your doing brah and hang loose see you lathas 🤙🤙
@@roamingwithjosh Please make sure to get plenty of thoughts from your wife, as it seems like she is doing a lot of the off road driving while you are filming. I understand it's not a Jeep, but did your confidence in what it can do grow over time, or did you always feel like you have to drive it at its limit to get you there? I want to do the same types of trails as your adventures with my 2 teen sons, and I'm wondering if I should sacrifice the fuel economy for the added capability of the 4runner.
I loved your video, I'm from Michigan and have never been west. It's on my bucket list though. I cant wait to show my wife your video. The reason I discovered you is I'm researching the outback wilderness edition. Is it worth it? I have a Crosstrek and love it, but could use more room. Thanks for sharing your family's adventures. I look fwd to the next
Thanks for the comment! If you’re coming from a crosstrek then it’s absolutely the right move. We’re a jeep family and this thing still gets us some pretty awesome places, the crosstrek is just too small for all 4 of us.
Man your videos are inspiring me…….to spend money 😂 I picked up a green wilderness on Sunday and now I’m spending money trying to get it where I want it. Have you already added skid plates to the bottom? I was a little disappointed that Subaru kind of fools us with the faux skid plate in the front though.
😂😂 I haven’t even seen a skid plate from Subaru that I would trust. I put on a front CVT skid and a rear diff skid so far and that’s it. Congrats on the OBW!
@@roamingwithjosh Yeah I haven’t seen one from them I’d trust either lol. I just remember in their earlier advertisements they said something about a steel front skid plate, but that turns out to be untrue. I’ve been looking at the LP adventures ones, I guess I’m headed that way for a few parts. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!

Very close to EU is Morocco and you have very similar landscape there 😎

Thank you for the kind words! The outback did live up to my expectations and minus a few annoyances, the vehicle is fantastic.
Thanks for taking the time to share your adventures.
Our pleasure!
im thinking on Taking my '23 Outback Wilderness to Moab
We love Moab too. It's always nice to have a destination that you're sad to leave at the end of a trip. We feel that way about Moab and Kanab. We come back home ready to plan the next trip.
It’s like a drug, keeps you coming back for more! Thanks for the comment!
Wow. Haven't finished watching more than 3 minutes, but just had to pause to say, Moab is really beautiful and that is some stunning HD drone footage. Well done.
Much appreciated, databyter!
Stunning photography!
Thank you!
After seeing Moab through your lens it's definitely on my "To-Do" list.
Right on!
What Pandora station do you listen to to hear all this great music? All the music that you use in your videos is amazing!
I find it all on musicbed.com!
@@roamingwithjosh thanks a bunch!! You have great content and we love watching your videos. We sat this weekend for about 4+ hours and watched your videos. We love the West and the Moab area so we enjoyed them. We also have Subaru's and Jeeps. 👍🏼
Can't wait to go back.
The Outback is getting it done Bro. I’m digging it.
Agreed!
Ye are so lucky to have so much open public land in the United States. Beautiful place. Beautiful wife, beautiful life!
We definitely are. Thank you!
That’s my favorite video of yours so far! Keep them coming! The family, the places and the memories are like heaven on earth! Keep them all close. ✌️&❤️
Agreed and thank you very much!
Good stuff. Beautiful family. Do you think a stock off the showroom 2023 OBW weighed down with a iKamper Mini RTT and gear can handle Hurrah Pass and Chicken Corners. I noticed your OBW has larger tires and maybe a lift.
I think it would do just fine!
What a great video. And love the drone footage. What a spectacular place to off-road. Great couple, and such a happy baby! She'll be loving Moab as she gets older too! She already does.
Thank you and we agree!

Like the music and the drone shots
Thank you!
Do you happen to remember what they're called/where you get the little metal running boards are?
Check out our website NativeNomads.us for all our vehicle build information with links to purchase.
What road are you guys on? I'm coming to visit next month. Also how long is that road end to end?
This is hurrah pass. You can make it all the way down to the catacombs and then come back or take it around to chicken corners. All of those are doable in the OBW
Halfway into the video and i had to comment already. That place is spectacular!
It’s so sick out there! Thanks for the comment!
Awesome vid. Any chance on a list of the subaru off-road specific specs?
What is it that you’re looking for?
Great vid!!! My friends and I will be back out there in August.
Have fun!
So beautiful. Really hope my plans for June hold up and I can see it myself.
I hope so too, dude! It’s a magical place.

any wheelwell mud sandblasting from those big tires?
Not that I've noticed!
You should do a video on overlanding with a toddler.
That's a fantastic idea. I think I will.

Is it a given you’ve driven Shafer Trail, Potash Road and maybe White Rim Road ? Took my Outback down the first 2. 4x4 required for the 3rd.
Done them all, just not in the Subaru!
Amazing content I'm subbed and hope you go a long way ❤
Thank you!
Which LED lights do you guys have for the front hood sides of the subaru?
amzn.to/3IZ0UXY that’s them
LP needs to clip that first rock hit on hurrah pass! cant wait to get sliders on my obw. awesome drone shots, keep it up
Lolol it was a good one! Thank you!
@@roamingwithjosh any physical damage/dent to the bar with a hit like that?
Not that I can see!

Thanks, dude!
Awesome- definitely on my “bucket list”!
Right on!
Rear diff locker recommended, other than that, your outback looks just fine. Very nice video!
Appreciate the input!
Doesn't Subaru X Mode eliminate the need of a diff locker?
Absolutely not. That’s the claim, but it doesn’t work like that in the real world.
Did I miss the decision on the Wilderness, or did you mean it is coming at the end of this 3 part series?
You haven’t missed anything yet! I’m working on that video as we speak, I have a lot of thoughts about what to do and would love peoples input.

What songs are in this video?
I'm not sure. Use shazam to find the songs.
What psi do you run?
Depends on the trail. Generally 22 in the rear and 18 in the front.
i like you sliders,plase lat me know you sliders
Lp aventure

I was there Feb. 27th.
We just missed each other.
Subaru offer to buy any footage off of you yet? Lol
Still waiting for that email. Hopefully they just call me to shoot for them one day!
They should because the views are captivating
Love the area, hate the town.
This shogun ninja has a cute wife.
Great drone footage but too much talking. But a lot people love your channel by the comments. Kudos to you.?
Lol yea I guess it just depends on what you like. Thanks!
2 years? 3 years? Whatever.. 😂
Man bun 😂👎
Thanks for the comment!
What tires are you running?
