I never knew this route existed. I just put it on the adventure list. Thank you for the video.
Happy you enjoyed them!!
Nice job on the video - multiple angles/views, narration flowed. Appreciate it as I’ll be there in September.
Thank you so much! Means a lot! Good luck on your trip!
Awesome time great times being made!
Thank you for watching!!
Awesome!
Thanks!!
Great adventure.
Thank you!!
Beautiful stuff guys 🤩🤩🤩rip drone
Thank you l, glad you enjoyed it!!
I'm jealous!
dont be jealous... just plan another trip :)
Just found your channel! Love it!!
Thanks so much Kirk189@ much appreciated!
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
I love the series, I can’t wait for the other episodes. You inspire me to ride the BDR next year on my new DR650.
Awesome!! You will love it!
Passed you on the road and subscribed
Much appreciated
I guess congrats on the new drone is in order 🤔. Great video
Lol, guess so.. I know dji and bestbuy are happy ;)
So glad you are sharing your experience with the WY BDR. Can’t wait to hit it in 2023!
If I had it to do over again i would have spent 2 days on section 7... wait till you see it.. sans the drone which is sad but should still be nice..
@@aMAYSingLife yeah, I meant to say sorry about the drone. I’ve crashed mine twice but I was luckier than your crash apparently 😕
@@Tail_Dragger its seems that when i do it, i do it right. whats funny is all the moving and shooting that i have done with the drone its always the simple shots that take it down lol.. DJI stated it was the controller that failed though, so they replaced both the drone and the controller for a reasonable fee.
Fantastic job, well when we’re out you can use my drone
Hopefully I won’t kill my new Mavic 3 but good to have a backup! Lol
Broken windshield was a nice touch, Broken drone was heartbreaking., Beautiful work by you and your now deceased drone. RIP drone.
I think Jeeps should just come with cracked windshields.. would save us the embarrassment of always having one lol. I just got this one fixed and rock hit the next trip and broke it. I figured I’d wait a bit before making GEICO replace it yet again lol! Thanks for watching!!
Hail? That is crazy! Beautiful film! Thank you!
Thank you!!
Couple years ago, I was fortunate enough to continue on same road into MT/Crow Country and come down the other side of mtns. Native Medicine Wheel and FAA radar facility on mtn just couple miles west of start of Sheep Mtn Rd.
That's very cool.. Was it a VOR that was out there? That's all that I can think of that would be out in middle of nowhere like that.
@@aMAYSingLife I don't think VOR as it is large round sphere, not typical 'milk bottle' - it has been there for over 50 years as I remember seeing when I was kid
Wow!! So happy I came across this vid. The state BDRs are pretty cool.
Thanks for dropping by and enjoying the video!
Great stuff! Can't wait for section 7!
Me either lol!! Should be coming out next weekend.. I’m at another expo or I would have got it done sooner..
First of all, amazing videos of an amazing trail. Well done!
Second, and an important question for me, when you traversed each section and the trail as a whole, and assuming you fueled at each possible fuel stop, did you ever have to any external fuel tanks (jerry cans, etc) or were there enough fuel stops? I don’t carry external gas, so I’m very curious.
Keep up the great videos
I did have a 5 gal jerry can but since I run a diesel I get 23 avg mileage so I never needed it.. if you get quite a bit less than that, then I’d bring 5 gal specifically for around South Pass City.
And hello to you, from Tennessee (Blountville). Looking forward to this series. I’ve done large portions of the BDRs in Colorado, Utah and New Mexico.
Very nice! Yes I look forward to doing the Colorado as I haven’t done it! Thanks for watching fellow Tennessean!
Nice video David. I'd like to do the Wyoming BDR next year. Glad you found your drown even though it was wounded.
Thank you! Great to hear from you Gary! Hope all is well in Oregon!
Someone say trains.....thats @Motophotoadventures Move!!!!
Here is what’s funny… holly asked me about the trains the next morning.. I said, I remember one.. she rolled her eyes, they were all night lol.. guess i slept pretty well.
Question,
How do you deal with trash overnight to avoid trouble with Yogie and Boo Boo?
Nice video, great job!
I have a bear can that I put all food trash in and I place it away from the campsite. Non-food trash goes in a trash bag that for now I keep in the jeep.. I’m still working on a solution similar to a trasharoo but won’t affect my rear camera. Stay tuned on that. I have ideas.
What happened with your drone that you had to recover it? I have one and don't want that issue.
What a beautiful ride, I absolutely can't wait for the rest of this series to drop!!!! May I ask, is their going to be a set schedule for this series release, or will they just be coming as you edit them together? Also, Holly, nice to see you out there, especially behind the wheel getting after it. Safe travels friends!!!
Thanks for watching!! My plan is to keep them as close to 1 per week as possible… I am traveling to Virginia for Ox east and then to Arkansas for Rendevous in the Ozarks which might hurt that some but that’s my goal.
@@aMAYSingLife at the end of the day, it'll all be good content. cant wait!
Great video, what time of the year did you start?
We ran it in August it seemed to be ideal timing.. i know a lot of guys who left earlier and ran into snow which depending on depth woudln't have been too big a deal in the jeep but if on moto it could have been a game changer.
@@aMAYSingLife May 13 will be my attempt of the Wyoming BDR north to south, but I’m thinking I’ll be doing a lot of rerouting. Just going to take it day by day and hope for the best.
Looking forward to your next videos.
@@danman12002 will def have to do some.. some of the roads were still closed in late June if I recall
Just passed you on i40 in a camaro
Saw you
That’s why I slow down so I can get your UA-cam
@@bndcclaps645 much appreciated
Hi Do you need some great lighting for your car to help you better driving, off-road? We're the pro auto lighting manufacturer for nearly 20 year and we're looking for sponsorship!
I’d be open to discuss it. Contact me on IG
Way too much drama for camping and driving on a dirt road. Keep it real. It's not like you're in Yemen.
lol. Not sure what you classify as drama.. I’m like the least dramatic overlander on UA-cam but thanks for the comment
Pᵣₒmₒˢᵐ 😴
Promo for what?
Oh, another "entitled" Overlander....great....did you remember your fridge and scottle?.....turn in your man card.
