A Jeep and a passion for exploring. I invite you to come along.
Sounds of the Trail | South Toe River | Overlanding Pisgah National Forest | North Carolina | ASMR
Come along as I take a solo trip in silence, along the South Toe River. Relax and take in the sounds of the trail, with no interruptions from me narrating or any music playing! Just the sounds of the trail (and the Defiant rattling!).
This is what it sounds like taking the Defiant down a basic gravel forest service road with a river running next to it!

looking to use this for my CPAP while at deer camp... when at home we will use it to power the wife's computer she works from home and we get blackouts monthly...
It should do the trick!
Did part of it today had to turn around because a tree fell across the trail
I hate it when that happens!
We call this place “Mine-tana”. It is also part of the Snowshoe Highlands Ride Center and has top notch Mtb trails all over the area.
Awesome! Thanks for the info!
What size are those generals. I ran them on my Tacoma Overland Setup and I run them on my SXS. New 24 Jeep and just starting on it and cannot decide on tire size yet. And do you have a lift?
Those were 295/70/17. I'm presently running 35x12.50 R17 on a 2.5" AEV suspension
@@DefiantOffroad Thank You
Great video! Our camping spots easy to find along this road ? Simple pull off spots on the side of the road or are there some a smidge off the road?
Thanks! I think that I probably should have shot a bit more footage though. The campsites are pretty much all right along the trail.
I've actually been down this one before. It's just up the parkway from Mt. Mitchell, right? The water level looked fairly low in this one. That river can be a bit nutty when it's rained a lot up there.
Yep, that's the one! I think that I first ventured down it about 12 or so years ago after leaving Mt. Mitchell. The river was nuts that day, but for this trip, it didn't look like it had rained out there for a while!
There's nothing like starting an overland journey sitting in traffic!
It was bad. Back and forth between bumper to bumper and a frustrating 30mph.
I enjoyed this a lot. Production on this one was really good. It looked like a lot of fun when it was raining!
Thanks! It was a lot of fun!
Were there many campsites there?
Not a lot, but the ones that are there are pretty decent.
how do you like this one long term?
It's solid. I have this one and the C1000. If I'm going on a solo trip I usually take the C1000. If it's both myself and Andy, then I usually also bring this one.
how are you liking it long term?
I have three fridges and this is the one that I generally take with me. 😄
going to be honest...i watched this one more than once.
So have I!
it was a great series. i loved seeing both of you guys versions of it.
Thanks! Matt's version of it is amazing!
I am really looking forward to this trail! I have never done these roads, do you think that a stock 24 Nissan Frontier Pro 4x will be alright here? Also any good camping areas near?
You'll definitely get pinstripes on it. The water pits can be very deep, depending on rainfall, and I've been told they got a lot of rain up there from the remnants of hurricane Debby. There's several campsites up there. They're mainly on the Southern half of the trail. There's also several sites on coal road, which is where the trails starts on its north end.
Good times! Well, not the sitting in traffic on the highway part 😂
Yeah the traffic was no fun, but the trip was!
i can't wait to get back to this kind of weather
I'm looking forward to a change of weather myself!
fun time! that place had no shortage of spots to camp.
Yeah there were tons of spots. I've been told they all fill up fast during hunting season.
super easy trail but its nice out there. good video!
Yeah it's nothing technical. Just a run of the mill Forest service road. I've got stuff going on that's sort of keeping me off anything technical or rough. It's a great area for camping though!
I totally get how being around others wears you out as an introvert. I do like being around others who share my hobbies/passions but there’s a limit as to how much of that I can take before I need my alone time. 👍
Exactly! It's great being around great people, but then it's time to recharge the batteries.
I was wondering how loud the compressor is when running. Have you measured how many decibels it emits? I have the AJ40, and it seems to run rather loudly (~50-60dB).
It's not very loud but no, I've never measured the decibels. I don't use it anymore, as I've replaced it with a dual zone unit.
Hello brother, Any recommendations for a dispersed camping area in the Washington national forest? My family and I always go for a camping trip on Labor Day weekend to Switzer lake close to flagpole knob and we going to this spot next to the lake where we can can get our vehicles right next to the water but the rangers place this rocks so I guess they don’t want to have vehicles that close to the water. I’m looking for a place similar to that… Any suggestions??
There's several good campsites on FS-95.
Enjoyed this video, however I want to mount mine on a motorcycle. Very nice installation.
They're great lights! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hello Everyone, so, i’m about to buy these tires for my 1st ever Wrangler, but i got 2 questions and I’d appreciate your honest opinion plz like on a scale from 1 to 5 1- how do they perform on snow? 2- road noise/tire noise on highways? (Keeping in mind that i work in sales and i get phone calls all day long 😪) 3- i’m not planning for a lift kit, but would 295-70-17 for without the need of spacers? Thanks guys, happy to be a fellow Jeep owner :)
They handle snow very well. I've driven in blizzards on the highway (and over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel), and of course off road in the snow. Road noise is on par with other mud tires. They aren't silent but the noise isn't overpowering either. I ran that set without lift for two days (got the tires mounted before we installed the suspension). They did fine, but I could see there being some fender rub if the suspension had to articulate.
that's a really nice xterra. the trail definitely looks basic. it looks like it was a fun time though!
Yeah, Andy has done a really good job with the ol' Xterra. He's done a good bit of work to it since this video was shot, and it's even better now! The trail is very basic. It's just a well-maintained forest service road.
awesome video! the aerial shots were epic. how is the trail, overall? how do you like that novsight tent? i've never used a wedge-style tent like that. how is it to open?
The trail is just a gravel road. Any car can make it down. There's seriously paved roads here in Hampton Roads that are bumpier. The tent is great! Opening it is super-easy. The gas-shocks on it make it really easy to open. I have back problems, and it's no issue at all to open...takes minimal effort.
the alpine loop has been on my bucket list as well for a long time. hopefully i'll make it out there one day.
I hope that you're able to make your bucket list trip happen one day. I'm hoping to make a return trip out there myself.
Great vid. Too much donation chatter. I’m here to watch cool vids, not give my $ away.
I'm glad that you liked the video. Making them costs a good chunk of money, so I leave the door open for those that are inclined, to help offset the cost of making them. If you aren't so inclined, then you can always just keep on watching and pay no attention to the request.
I'm going to try and hit some of the this trail on the way to the Fall Adventure Vehicle Roundup next month. I haven't explored Georgia yet.
It's definitely worth heading out there and exploring the area!
I’ve driven that trail more times than I can count. The more people that find out about it, the more people will destroy it and get it shut down permanently. There used to be a larger trail network that joins this one. We always called it Peavine. It was permanently closed because idiots destroyed everything around the trail. They cut trees down, trashed the place (even left a car up there) and widened it some places. This trail is closer to the parkway side of this one. The gate is across the creek and might not be visible this time of year because of vegetation.
It's a great trail. With the advent of navigation apps like OnX and Gaia, it's inevitable that trails like this will become more well-known and popular. All we can do is encourage responsible use of the land.
Can you please tell us the height from the top of the shelf to the ceiling of the jeep? thank you.
Slightly over 20 inches.
I wanted to thank you for this video. I went up to this trail today and it was amazing. Definitely going back to do some camping
I'm glad it helped out. I have a newer video from the area, where we do some camping. There's some great campsites out there!
@@DefiantOffroad yes I have seen that video and I seen that site you used today. Did you make it up to the air traffic control tower at the top. That was cool to find.
We didn't venture up to the tower. My task for that weekend was to map the Pedlar River trail for OnX and then just relax at camp!
I grew up in Woodstock, va. Good video!!

That horsefly was buggin' ya! lol! Fantastic video and scenery!
For real! I actually reshot that part afterwards, but ended up keeping the first version. I figured that leaving it in there added a bit of humor.
cool. i enjoy videos with a little background music and a little narration, but it's also nice to take a break from that here and there and just see what its like riding down the trail.
Yeah, it was a refreshing change. It definitely made editing a lot easier!
