@ Tim, A month ago had to rebuild my ford ranger engine because the cooler before the egr valve had a leak and sucked all the coolant through the engine. It was a barely noticeable coolant loss at first and pressurerising the radiator system showed no leak. Cost me a couple of thousand bucks. You might want to have an eye on that.
Great video. Right up there. Best wishes guy's
Rock crawling and build videos are great, but these adventure videos are my favorite.
Second this one 🤙🏼
💯
I love how you and your wife explore together.. thanks for representing the south. NWGa here.
I'm fairly new to your channel but u fellows r enjoying life and I think it's wonderful u do it with your wives, I find myself watching this channel more an more, have fun stay safe
Wow...was holding on and with Hope saying pay more attention to a few spots. Those ladies are definitely as my dad used to say ones to ride the river with!! Keep this one going was 👍
Colorado is definitely on my bucket list what an amazing area, the commentary for Colt’s dad about the old days of wheeling is an awesome touch 👌awesome video
Awesome to see the families together. Epic views! My wife won’t let me do these trails, lol.
That lean makes me wanna go ahead and install the sway links that I just said I ain't gonna run lol. Looks like an awesome time. Wish I was there!
I really, really enjoyed Mack's comments. Must have be great fun to have a dad like him!
OK I’m new to your channel. I think jeep should sponsor you and give you guys a brand new jeep Rubicon‘s to test. You guys show what a jeep can do!! Most impressive video ! Most impressive scenic views! Thank you for making that video! I know it would take me years of experience to get me to go where you guys go in my jeep Rubicon!! absolutely beautiful camera work. And drone footage!!
That is some of the most beautiful country I’ve ever seen! I would love to come and do that sometime before the Lord calls me home. I have prostate cancer and it’s stage 4 (in my bones) but my body is responding very well to therapy so I am praying that I’ll be able to do this someday soon. God bless y’all! Love your videos!
Prayer sent that you make that trip.
@@waynelawrence4973 thank you and God bless you!
Please be sure to make that trip. And I have one more for you. Sequoia national Park. I know it's a national park and all but it's special. Those trees were there when the Great pyramids were being built.
Fortunately none of us know when our time has come. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow. May you have many more tomorrows.
@@TheBandit7613 thanks!
Awesome video, The four of you gave us some great entertainment yet very sketchy entertainment, You can tell you're very seasoned at what you do, Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
Very much so!
This video with your Dad's commentary and narration is Absolutely Beautiful ! Would Love to hear from Him More 😍 ❤️
I miss the san Luis valley. I lived on highway one sixty. Man the places that valley has to offer are so beautiful. Thank you for the revisit. When you went to bonanza you went west, next time in villa Grove. Turn east to go back over the sangre de Cristo mountains and head for the royal gorge. Man Minnesota is such a change for me. I miss the mountains and knowing that I could see where I was at or where I am going. Here the trees just help me stay lost
Very beautiful scenery. Loved this video. The Mount Blanca / Lake Como trail was not on my wish list of trails for Colorado, it is now. Looking forward to the next episode. Thanks for sharing.
I am the great cornholio! I need tp for my bunghole. Lake Titicaca! Nicaragua! Matt really had me laughing with that one, brought back some memories lol 😂
So beautiful. We need to go. The best tent I ever had only cost $3.00 it lasted for 15 years. It was a ground tent . What Matt did with the tarp keeps you nice and warm.
absolutely!
You guys look like you had quite an awesome adventure. It really was some very beautiful country and I thank you for bringing us along. Be careful out there guys 👍☮️🇺🇲
Man even on easy trails, when you get that lean towards the edge it definitely makes you pucker up. Couple years ago when were were out there and my niece's cousin rode with me, she had to look away from the edge like Hope was doing 😂.
You got that right!
Thanks for taking us along it was sweet
I've done Blanca peak a few times. It's absolutely stunning and hair-raisingly adventurous. Highly suggest this trail to anyone who is experienced and wants to hit a very crazy trail.
I'm from Colorado and used to do all those trails on my dirt bike. For some reason they're just not scary on a dirt bike.
Gazelle T4 tent with a cot inside. Best of both worlds! Its my favorite setup other than sleeping in thr back of the truck
I went up the Mount Blanca trail about a year after the deadly accident you talked about. We rescued someone that was sliding off of the Jaws 1 or 2 obstacle. Got them back to a safe place and headed back down the hill while we continued up. My friends Amigo lost power steering but he chose to continue up, about 1/2 way up he dislocated his thumb when the steering wheel turned violently on all of those rocks. We had to turn around and get to a safe place so we never made it to the top. I wish we had as it looks gorgeous up there. Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it.
Great video love it. Up there with some of your best. Thank you for letting us tag along. God bless you guys take care can’t wait to see your next one
It's all about the r-value for staying warm while sleeping. The ground will for sure sap heat from your body. Most likely Matt's tent was way thinner than the cot that Colt has. Adding an air pad or more layering between you and the ground will help you stay warm
For sure the ground will rob body heat. I have camped /hiked my whole life and learned that as a cub scout. I have never been without an insulant pad sleeping in the woods if I am tenting it.
When it gets cold at night I'll wear socks and a hat along with thermal underwear.
Matt, I get cold at the drop of a hat as well...always have (low BP) but I have to agree with Colt, I have a tent cot and a good sleeping bag and I stay warmer than being on the ground.
@@russellayton6408 it's because one is off the ground while the colder one is on the ground.
@@jasonwolf8841 I wasn't making a comparison. I understand that. I was simply stating that the ground will rob your heat.
Great job! We run this trail at least, Two times a year. The rocks, the view, and the camping and fishing is amazing!!
Very good video with the drown and explanation of the different sections. Look forward to more.
I love your Colorado trail series!These videos brought back a lot of memories of my childhood. Rode most of these trails in the back seat of my dads brand new 78 CJ7, 304 V8, 3 speed. Tons of trips up and down Medano creek with dads jeep club. My boy and I are watching every episode! Thanks for the great bleeping jeep entertainment.
I have been watching (lurking) you guys for a while now. I really enjoy your content, both of you. I just wanted to tell you
I appreciate that you guys really enjoy this stuff as opposed to some other guys that do this for a living. Thanks again.
Thanks for lurking hopefully we earned the bell click and follow😉👍
@@bleepinjeep You earned that on the first view months ago. I can just feel your passion when I watched these Deadliest Trails videos, good stuff. Back to lurk mode - lol.
Great adventure guys! Also I'm going with the colt cot tent all day XD
I subscribed to your channel awhile back because of watching Matt’s Off Road. This was an amazing video. Beautiful country. And sleeping in the cot is a no brained. You’ve made a fan out of me. Thanks from N.E. Utah.
We hiked/backpacked this trail 8 yeas ago and hit all three 14ners. Based camped at Blanca lake (great camping spot) and caught a bunch of trout. We started in my ‘08 JK, but no other rigs with us and didn’t want to risk going as a single rig. Turned out to be the move with huge fall down trees blocking the trail at the time. Loved it, need to go back and run my rig to the top.
Thanks Matt n Colt or Colt n Matt for thanking us with your ride,it was spectacular.God bless
You see the remains of the houses and think not only why, but how. Another amazing trail, thanks guys.
Really enjoy your videos.Good learning material...Keep up the great work your doing...👍😊
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Yes she is.
Love your channel! Thanks for the awesome information and sharing your adventures. Bleeping Colt is a great guy so hate to pick on him but having lived in Colorado for close to 68 years & coming to the San Luis Valley since ‘68 to hunt I have yet to cross the continental divide before Wolf Creek pass over 75 hwy miles west of La Veta pass over the Sangre De Cristo range. I’m nitpicking so shame on me! lol I’ve thought about sharing UA-cam vids of Como Lake road with Trail Recon, Lite Brite or other UA-camrs to have an episode of this road but you’ve done an awesome job! My wife & I love mountain rides! It’s awesome to see your wives tagging along & enjoying trips with you!
I live in Cotopaxi and the continental Divide remark just blew right past me. When I first seen the post it said Medano most deadly drives in Colorado I was half asleep and Confuzed. Lol. You’ve been hunting over there just a little longer than I have I started in the mid 80s. When it my time my ashes will be Fullerton Park southwest of Saguache unfortunately my baby sister’s already there. But that place is definitely home.
Matt is the best advertisement for the Jeep Wrangler Sport model. Hope's Jeep went everywhere and did it well. Good job.
Absolutely beautiful, looking forward to seeing the rest of this series 👍😎
I did this stock, but it was brutal. However it was so much fun!! Jaws 3 was my nemesis, however, once I stopped trying to take the line the 4 door bronco took, I went straight up it. I want to go back… but my crossmembers and underside are saying no for now lol. Great adventure BleepinJeep!
They don't call 'em the Rocky Mountains for nothing! Love these Mountains!
That is interesting you mention Rick Russell at the start of the video. Back in 1992 I partnered with Rick and was responsible for shooting, editing and duplicating of all his videos. Our partnership lasted for 15 years and it was an amazing experience. After the first year with Rick I bought my first Jeep and am now on my 4th. I remember videoing this trail plus and many others in Colorado for a two part series we were doing. Your videos of Colorado bring back some great memories. Keep up the good work.
If you put a skirt around the raised tent it would keep an air pocket under the tent and would be warmer than the one on the ground.
For deadly trails, you have to consider Radical Hill. Great video guys. Thank you for sharing.
I'll check it out!
Radical hill is a bad mofo !!
Grade 7 with a monster shelf road at top.
Awesome views, very beautiful places. About engine issue on JL - unfortunately I had the same issue on my Toyota FJ - firs it was just missing spark in one cilinder and then when I drive to the mountains temperature starts going up and down. As the result - head gasket said goodbye and hello the engine rebuild. But Toyota brought me home that time!!! But it’s cost me not just gasket replacement but total engine rebuild. Because of overheating couple times. Good luck with that, and waiting for the new adventures!!!!!
Cool upload thanks!
You're warmer in the tent off the ground because the ground is cold. It's the same reason you want an insulated air mat in the winter. I'd take the raised over the ground any day. I use a bivy and mat when hunting elk in Colorado, sometimes just a tarp an mat.
I love Hope. Thanks for the adventures 😊
There’s a story that in the 1800’s there was a hotel at Lake Como. The tourists were transported in horse drawn wagons. It’s an exciting trail for sure.
Fantastic trail. I went to the sand dunes with my son in 2020. We took road 559 which I think turned into the trail you took to the dunes.
FYI we have been seeing 2nd gen 3.6 with head/ bock issues. It’s just like yours it’s normally cylinder #5. We pull the head off and find a small line between cylinders 3@5 . We take a picture of the line submit to powertrain and replace the engine.
I vote for the Cabela's tent. Much more comfortable than laying on hard soil!
Looks like a fun trail. keep up the awesome videos.
Darn straight best country on planet!!
I loved hearing from your dad Colt. That was cool.
Thank you!👍
Ms. Bleeping Matt, you are an awesome passenger! I'd have to drive or hop out and walk it.
Righteous ride. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
Great job on the videos, You are by far my favorite to watch on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing your experiences out there on the trail and the informative how to’s
Nice to see y'all hitting a trail I recommended 🤙. For the tent question I sleep in a ground tent but if I was in a wet area and there could be standing water I would have to go with the tent off the ground. Oh and if you look in the distance not far from that Gator farm you will see a good friend of mine's farm 😂
Did anyone notice the mountain lion? 25:06 Just to the left of the pine tree up in the rocks. I had to rewind like ten times, definitely a lion! Love the channel guys! Love the new content! Matt I meant it when I said you inspired me at the Dixie Run a few years back. I've been following your channel since day one brother. Got 4 jeeps now! LOL You guys have to do the Dixie Run this year! Please! Meet me at the first Holler!!
The main thing about camping in the cold is getting something between you and the ground. You need some type of insulation or the ground will suck the heat out of you. If you are going to ground tent, you need some type of air mattress or something to act as insulation.
Also, jumps like that with temp can indicate air bubbles in the coolant. The sudden temp spike is the sensor reading the air.
When I woke up this morning the first pop up on my phone was Medano pass One of the deadliest trails in Colorado. My first thought was this guy smoking too much of Colorado wacky weed. You had me hooked I had to watch. The guy wearing the oxygen was right we never aired down only in the dunes. We never air down anywhere on trails. But Medano does have deadly spot on the east side not far after you get into the national Forest there’s a plane crash. You’re about the same age as my middle son and you’re right we used to drive in the creek on the backside of the dunes I was just looking at those pictures the other day. For us that was our favorite spot back in the mid 80s all the way up to the 2000s. Every year at the first of summer we made that trip and then we head north to Vila Grove eat a bowl of chili then head back over Hayden pass and head home. Anywhere on the Sandy’s is home.
Almost lost a camera on that journey. Epic placement between rocks saved it. Love the trails.
A cot tent is the best.
The ground gets cold fast at night.
Thanks for taking us on your journey, thus us something I have always wanted to do
Love your channel ❤️
I love hiking to the lake and bonus Jeep/toy carnage on the way up!-)
Have always maintained that Colorado is God’s country! This video has shown me parts of Colorado that I have not seen before. Awesome!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
what a great time.. thanks for sharing .
Great video colt!!
Went through there in our Scout II in August 4, 1973. Very unspoiled then! Still have the Scout!
Cool, looking forward to a possible win!
Beautiful scenery!
In the Army in Germany, we had a big squad tent. It had facilities for a kerosene stove. But we only had the stove on one outing. I remember one time, I don't remember where I first tried sleeping, but I think it was outside. It was too cold there. There was no one sleeping in the squad tent when I entered. I thought just sleeping off the ground on a cot would keep me above the cold. But my feet got cold and I couldn't sleep at all. I finally got an air mattress, but was too tired to air it up. Still it did a good job keeping the cold from coming through the canvas of the cot, even without any air. An air mattress would not work without air on the ground for sure.
Cant beat a good old swag for cold weather camping.
Great vid Bleepin' folks...... you have very brave wives!!!!! I think Matt did a little more surfing than Colt. As far as the question of tents go Colt said "best for everything" I would not choose to be elevated for everything. I dont want 20 degree winds blowing below me as well as over me let alone the added chance of the tent launching in high winds. Matts tent needs a proper rain fly so it can breathe and condensation escape. BUT for car camping Colts is probably better. Thanks for the videos keep them coming. 👍
we forgot to mention folded size, mine is large but flat and colts is large and refrigerator like, lol😆
Wow that looks awesome!
Rick Russel is a legend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I have all his videos on DVD, and still watch them. What cool, classic, simple 4x4s they drove. I actually emailed him one time with a comment on poor audio in a scene, and he actually replied. I felt horrible, as that was long before GoPros and wireless mics. He's who got me into off roading. I hope Rick you're doing well!
First time viewer, new subscriber here and I assumed you were from Colorado. Then I noticed the 1 County Wyoming plate. Made me smile because I live a mere130 miles north of you. Kind of cool, you don't see many Wyoming folks on the Tube. 😊
Colt mentioned Rick Russell's videos. Fun fact, I was in a few of his videos in the Colorado series. My Jeep was not in the videos as Rick thought it was too ugly (and he was correct). So, I rode as a passenger with one of my friends. The Mt. Blanca was one of the trails I was riding as a passenger.
Another fun fact about Rick's Colorado videos regarding Mt. Blanca and the Rattlesnake trails. At the beginning of the Rattlesnake trail video you can see a rattlenake striking towards a stick. That rattlesnake was actually found at the trail head of Mt. Blanca where people usually air down their tires. So, be careful as you may not think at that high elevation there would be rattlesnakes. This particular rattlesnake surprised a driver as they were airing down their tires. They heard a weird noise from what they thought was a tire. It turned out to be this rattlesnake warning the driver. The driver was practically squatting on the snake. Thank goodness they were not bitten. I safely relocated the rattlesnake away from the vehicles and watched it until the convoy move out. The snake was safe, the driver was a little freaked out but safe, and we all had an awesome day on the trail!
BleepinJeep, thanks for the videos and stories!
Thats cool, Growing up in Colorado I had the pleasure of hanging out with Rick a few times. He's one awesome dude and down to earth. I always wondered if his 5th grade students ever knew how hardcore he actually was😎👍
Thank you for sharing.
I Love this channel!
Very cool to see the dad talk about back in his day
a canvas tent with a heat source good fer any weather guys!! nuff beer ill be sleepin on the ground anyway lol ! love the shows
I used to ride my dirt bike up Blanca Peak Trail when I was a kid. Beautiful trail.
I choose my mostly stock, not a crawler, but an overlander suburban with the bed in the back,WITH my heated blanket! Off the ground,on a mattress, and a heated blanket!
wheelin' a broken rig is an even bigger challenge. I came out of the cascade Mt. range in the middle of winter at 1 am on 7 cylinders and a steering box that ripped itself off the frame rail once. Sounded like a bloody CanAm and had less than 50% steering and no headlights. At one point I said "screw it" and floored it to get up an ice coated hill. I drove up a fallen tree for traction like a stripper on a pole on dollar beer night, seesawing the steering back and forth for traction on the trunk to the top. I got up and out somehow.
WOW! Amazing.
I’ve been exploring Colorado for the last month and a half and have unofficially declared the aspen as the *colorado guardrail*
Colorado is a Jeep lovers dream.
I use a ground tent with my old Army cot. Love it, not horribly cold.
You guys seem like so much fun 😊 I really need to go driving in the Pryors soon :)
Matt, I think you should put out a calendar with photos of the various scenery that you can only see when off-roading, because not all of us are able to go out and see those things.
Went over Jaws in a 1985 F150 Short bed with 35s. Nice job in taking the tough lines.
9:55 Colt, my Dad always told me the two areas you lose body heat the most, is your head, and laying on the ground. I recently tried out a Crua Koala Maxx with the rain fli, and I got a great night sleep.
Great video I just climbed Mt Blanca couple weeks ago very fun trail we camped at lake como
Ultimately the use of a self inflating Thermarest/insulating cushioning foam mattress is the warmest and most comfortable. The cold air cannot flow under it like it can with a cot or hammock. It is also cooler in hot weather, because the ground will be cooler than the hot air flowing under a cot or hammock. This tip is from my many years of camping in all weather conditions during wilderness kayaking trips.
Wow what an amazing trail you should get Matt's morvair and fabrats fj to do it again with you great series keep it up
My wife and I were hiking Blanca on 8/3/02, heard the crash on Jaws 2 and were on the scene within minutes. There was a boy scout troop also on the trail that afternoon. In that unfortunate fatality the Jeep didn't go over the side but end over end backwards down the road and continuied off at the switchback. The jeep without a hard top (can't rember if it had a bikini top) came to rest on it's side with a tall aspen tree threaded through the roll bar. I assested for a bit, there was nothing to be done for the driver. The Sherif who responded was absolutly flying up the trail driving a scrambler to get to the accident.
a very awesome video thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
20 years ago, Medano was a lot of fun. Now with all the traction mats in the sand, it's kind of boring. Been up Blanca many times in my 76 full size Cherokee. I was up there as well the week before the guy rolled off of J2. I myself put my Cherokee on its top at jaws 3 in 2005. Flipped it over and drove out on it's own power. As far as jaws one goes, my favorite line was the third one the red jeep took. Cool vid for sure.
You guys are awesome love watching you both God bless you and your family
The sand dunes make a crazy sound when it starts to move...
I just added this to my bucket list!
If you have to keep adding coolant, and there’s no visible leaks anywhere, it’s usually a head gasket, if you have the V-6 that’s usually what it is. Safe travels home. Good luck
