Please let us know what you think about our adventure so far. Also let us know if you've been on these trails and what you thought about them. If you have tips that can be helpful to others, please share those here. And please help our channel by sharing this video with others. THANK YOU!
The video came out great! 🙂
👍
You guys have made amazing videos! You have done such a great job capturing the adventure so far and giving helpful tips! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much!
This part of the FAT is really cool. There are a lot of trails in that area that don't show on maps. You could spend a lot of time exploring.
👍
Enjoyed your video, great info on Eglin. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice work cutting back the brush. Hope you checked for ticks!! Cheers from JAX
Thanks! Oh yes ... always looking out for ticks!
One more SUPER important tip about Eglin. You have to check the daily access map on the Jackson Guard website. Weekends are usually OK, but during the week there are regular closures that can and will effect the F.A.T. The "camo dudes" of Eglin will not let you use ignorance of the closures for an excuse (speaking from personal experience)!!! Great video, glad yall got through without any trouble.
Thanks for sharing. That is a very important part that we didn't learn about until after this trip.
@dirtybunchjeepclub1986 our group that ran Eglin two weeks ago ended up in a restricted area, got stopped by the MP and Federal police. 10 rigs, we were given a very stern warning. Check out the @baptismoverland video about it.
A coworker and a bunch of his drunk friends went offroading on Ft Dix .
Got caught by the MPs, taken in and grilled. When they decided the boys were not up to anything they decided to let them go.
They also found my coworker was the least drunk of the bunch which we found unbelievable! They asked to see his driver license. As he pulled it out they saw his military ID. They asked: Why didn't you show us that in the beginning?
@@raymondclark1785 that is hysterical. Glad we didn't get hauled in but we could have. We weren't drinking and they probably run into issues with this often so hopefully they don't get too upset about these things ... but who knows?
@@dirtybunchjeepclub1986 MP's don't always have a sense of humor, we had a Sergeant Guess get pulled over on Ft Bragg, What's your name Sergeant? Guess Bam!
Great videos! Looks so fun. Where was the helicopter?
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. We've been out shooting new content. The Huey is on the base at Eglin. Here are the coordinates. 30.60386, -86.79663
@@dirtybunchjeepclub1986 Thank you!!
That was what we call Jessies Trail. It has been closed for about a year, well posted closed. It's a fun little run and glad y'all didn't get FWC on ya. lol.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks for letting us know. We'd never been there and it truly turned out to be an adventure.
Video is really good, nicely done. Instead of the music maybe do some narration as to where you are. Not a criticism just a suggestion. Looking forward to doing the FAT myself.
Thanks! We are not professionals ... we're just Jeepers who are trying to share what we see out there. I agree with you ... the more we can let you guys know where we are, the better. Sometimes when we bring all of this together, that just gets lost in the shuffle. We'll try to be more mindful of that going forward.
You you all did. You need permits for Eglin AFB Reservation
Great videos, what app are you using for routing on the trail? I tried using Gaia back in November on the FAT, but didn't find it very user friendly.
I jokingly say that GAIA is like Excel ... it is not intuitive but once you get the basics down it can be very helpful.
We are using Gaia. I agree, it is not user friendly. We've spent the last year trying to get used to it and what has helped the most is the videos that Gaia recently put out. Once you manage to get the GPX files onto your map, things work well.
