Cades Cove Parsons Branch Trail Ride
We linked up with Smoky Mountain Jeep Club in Townsend TN and did a ride through Cades Cove and Parson Branch. Yes I k now I kept calling it Parson's Branch Creek ...... I apologize. I did state that the ride was a bit fast paced, and it was. You can't tell by the video, but trust me.
We thanks all 112 jeeps that came out for the ride and Smoky Mountain Jeep Club for hosting the event.
I will be posting the trail video of trail 36 up in North Cumberland WMA in the coming days. Lots of recovery on that one.
We will also be knocking out a few gear related videos now that the weather is getting better. Camp Stoves, Lighting, and power options. Stay Tuned.
Thanks to everyone that spends a few minutes to watch my videos. RLTW !!

    Many of the roads on the lower end are named wrong on Google, Gaia, OnX, etc. TN Division of Forestry and TWRA have correct maps online. Clear Creek has some creek crossings and is slightly more technical. Pretty much every road that is legal to be on can be traveled in a stock 4wd pickup.

    Hey nice walk around video and I especially appreciate the info on the AC. Do you find that the position of the AC is too low inside the trailer? It seems that the mattress is blocking the air flow. Also, what's your opinion on the build quality? I've read some mixed reviews with some people having issues with the rhino lining cracking on the exterior. Keep making videos, its all trial and error, you will figure it out. 👍

    • @SuaSponteOverland
      @SuaSponteOverland Před rokem

      I don't think that there is too much of an issue with the AC placement, although I would prefer it higher. I think on the Newer trailers they have them higher now. My dog sometimes changes the AC setting with his butt when he is rolling around at night. I have heard the same with the Rhino Liner. I'll keep ya posted on that. I am glad you enjoyed the video, I am going to do a review/walk thru of my Yakima Road Shower this weekend.
