  • Join me on my 688 mile, six night & seven day solo ATV overland adventure ride of the Arizona Peace Trail.
    The Arizona peace Trail is a approximately 675 mile loop trail system located on the western side of the beautiful state of Arizona. The AZPT passes through or near many small towns and there are hundreds of miles of side trails that connect up with the AZPT along the way.

    On day-6 I was camped just outside of Quartzsite. I ended up sleeping in pretty late and getting a much later start to my day than I had planned. My plan is to make it to Martinez Lake where I will set up camp some where around there. I would also refuel and resupply at the marina at Martinez Lake. The route for today would take me through the GBU (the good, bad and Ugly). Upon getting to the GBU I can see it is going to take much more time to get through than I had planned for. And after getting such a late start to my day I figured that at the rate of time it was going to take me to get through the GBU I was going to put me at Martinez Lake well after dark. So I decide to turn around and take the cross over from the west portion of the trail to the east and head back south towards Dateland where I would be ending my trip there on day seven. I would spend my sixth and final night camped out under the stars in the desert of segment twelve. On day-7 I wake up and watch the sunrise from my tent. I take my time packing up camp and getting ready to ride the last 55 miles of my six night and seven day Arizona Peace Trail adventure. I did not end up making the complete loop how ever I did ride 688 miles of the AZPT and enjoyed every mile of it.

    What an awesome series of the AZ Peace Trail. You did the right thing on calling it quits when you were dropping into the canyon. It's not worth getting hurt or tearing up your ATV. I am glad you posted this video. I was waiting for the end of the series. Take care brother.

    Your adventure is one of the best on youtube. One thing for future videos that would make them better than all others is no background music. A solution to the sore thumb issue is to use your right foot in a CFMoto Zforce 500 or 800 Trail - 50" wide SxS 😂

    • @SouthwestATVAdventures
      @SouthwestATVAdventures  2 роки тому +1

      I really appreciate that thank you!! And thank you for your input on the music. I will consider that for sure. I have considered a SxS but I really like getting out on the trails on my ATV for the time being. Thank you for checking out my series.

    I wonder if anyone has ever added a left hand finger or thumb throttle to relieve one's right thumb?

    • @SouthwestATVAdventures
      @SouthwestATVAdventures  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed the series. That would be a cool idea to help relieve the thumb. I did zip tie a stick to my thumb throttle so that I could use more of my palm and give my thumb a break.

    You should of followed the power line road and not turned on good,bad,ugly. It takes you over the mountains and get back on the peace trail with a few turns. Very easy to do. Done it several times.

    Love your videos dude!!! Going there May 1st. for 8 days. Have some questions if you could help me please. How is the cell service throughout the whole trail. I see you caring a Garmin GPS device. Here in Minnesota you just use your cell phone and the Polaris ride command or other map apps. What could you tell me about the cell service in that whole situation. And lastly a real important one. If I start out and park my truck and trailer somewhere at the northern part of the trail and go counterclockwise like you did My vehicle sits somewhere for six or seven days. Where do you park your vehicle on trailer that's safe and that makes sense? Any help is appreciated big time thank you.

    • @SouthwestATVAdventures
      @SouthwestATVAdventures  Рік тому +1

      That is awesome man! You're gonna have a great time out there on the Arizona Peace Trail. To be honest the cell service was much better than I thought it would be. If you're going to ride the trail solo I would always recommend something like a Garmin Inreach or similar. I live here in Arizona so I had my girlfriend drop me off in Dateland. I was looking at doing this trail again this year starting from Salome and someone recommended parking at the Desert Palms RV resort. He said that he has parked there a couple of times and they only charged him $10 for a week. I would be careful parking anywhere in Kingman. I saw a video of a guy who got all of his wheels and tires stolen off of his truck. If you haven't already check out the Facebook group for the trail. The folks on there are all really helpful. They also have a GPX file of the trail that you can upload to your preferred GPS. Look them on Facebook at Arizona Peace Trail User Forum - FAQ GPX Q&A. Thanks for checking out my videos man. I'm glad you enjoyed them.

Not really sure which one you think is best I really appreciate your opinion. Write t back when you can thank you! Changed my trip plan to mid-April now. Going April 19th through the 26th.
