Excellent - Excellent video!
Thank you Tom, and thank you for watching.
Heading to Moab etc this fall. Soooo can’t wait.
Have fun and post up trip reports after your trip.
Ohh yeah that is great 👍
Thank you for watching
Onion creek to hideout canyon / blm 100 and onto la sal mountain is great for summer trailing there are dinosaur tracks, and you go from desert to forest to snow. I went when it was 100 degrees in desert to snow drifts covering trail when we turned around. Kids packed snow into coolers to have snowball fight in desert on way back. We saw a bear cross the trail as well in the mnts
Thanks for the intel! Onion Creek is one of our favorites! We have a lot to map up above Onion Creek, its beautiful up there.
We were in Moab in April of 2019 for 15 days. Thanks for the memories. I've got to get back
Post up some photos on our website on the trails you ran. We would love to see them.
April 19 was my first year out, too. Been back half a dozen times now. Love every trip
Planning a trip to Salt Lake to visit my sister. Definitely doing Moab while there. Getting Exited. Can't wait

Yet another route I will need to see if I can fit into our iternary when we head up there at the end of next month. Said it on the last video and I will say it again here....you guys are killing it with these videos recently. Keep em coming and thank you!
Thank you so much, we are really trying! There are so many routes out there, wow, so hard to choose. This was Todd's route he would choose if he only had one day in the area. We think you will like it!

Fantastic video!
Thank you for watching
So glad you posted this video. I'm planning on doing the same loop over Memorial Day. Might avoid some of the crowds in Arches that way.
Have fun and Post up a trip report on our website, we would love to see your trip.
Did Tower Arch Road last year in my 4Runner and it was NBD so I think I might add in some of your other trails when I am back next in my less modified GX. Great video!
Have fun and post up a trip report. Thank you for watching.
Great video. Added this one to my list.
Awesome, thank you!
beautiful, congratulations! from argentina!
Thank you and thank you for watching
I was on parts of this trail system a week ago. Great videography and editing. Gives me ideas on completing the same routes you took next time I visit Moab.
Thanks!
For sure, post up some trip report on our website, we would love to see your trip.
Just found your channel! It’s awesome! Thanks for posting it! For doing the work
Thank you for watching! Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Make sure you head over to the website for more adventure ideas.
Added to my list
Worth it. After you get done, post up a few photos on our website. We would love to see them.
What a great video with mazing views. I'm a new subscriber. Thanks
Awesome, head over to our website and plan your own epic trip.
thanks! I'm leaving for Moab on the 22nd
Have fun! After you get back post up some photos from your adventure on our website. We would love to see them.
The wheels on the the white JLUR are soooo nice!
Thank you
They are Racelines with Falken Wildpeak M/T's
Great vid! Have done a little Klondike Bluffs on the MTB, would love to go back and fatbike this route and shoot it from that perspective. Building up my Tacoma now for the adventures ahead. Subscribed!
Sounds like a fun time. Thank you for watching
Think we were there that same day (from 4/3 to 4/9). I remember that hot air balloon I think. Did this run before and agree this a quality ride, especially to avoid crowds on the more popular trails.
We were out there at a different time, another one of our guys was out there in early March... so that balloon seems to be a new mainstay there. Sure would be fun to go up in it!
I was just out at Arches/Moab over Memorial weekend and I can't wait to get back out there.
Klondike Bluffs looks like an amazing drive. I traded in my Forester for a 4runner for a more capable vehicle for my next trip out.
Would love a leader like you to show me the way
You will love that 4runner. If you are on facebook or other social medias. Find groups then go to our website and download all the details of these trips and have an adventure with those groups.
Agree w/ all the camera work, but geez some of those sections were technical af, and you guys are bad asses.
Thank you. Thats half the fun of a good adventure.
Evolution is a good thing.
Thanks for watching!
Will be in Moab in June and visiting Arches. Might have to sneak off payment after hilling hells revenge.
This route is not nearly as popular as Hell's Revenge, not near has challenging either :), but I think you will like that it all it offers.
Will have to do this trail at Chicken Corners (will be first real off-road for me). Will get the app and hope it has all this info for the trails.
Awesome. We suggest doing research at home on the web, then take the app with you for the offline use.
What an amazing episode!! I definitely will save this to Gaia when I head out in a week or so. Thanks! The link in the description gives a 404 error (page not found). ;-(
Thanks!! Hrm, that is odd about the link. www.trailsoffroad.com/blog/dinosaur-tracks-unbelievable-rock-formations-and-arches-national-park-a-moab-one-day-trip. You will need the tracks for all the trails listed above in the description.
I rode my bike past those tracks a month ago and didn't even realize they were there.
They are easy to drive right by for sure!
Just did this entire route a few days ago.
This video might need to be fine tuned to express the nature of the trails in their current condition: BLOWN OUT.
By no means is it as easy as it’s portrayed by the person in the white jeep in this video. Baby steps is not for beginners at all.
Tower arch trail has been destroyed since I was last there in ‘17. It’s a mess.
If you’re reading this and are a beginner, I would not recommend this 1 day trip. You’ll never make it out of the wash at Klondike bluffs without a slight lift and 33’s
great advise, what are you driving?
love your videos 🔥🔥 off topic, what RTT does the white jeep have?
Thanks for watching! It is called an Ursa Minor. It's been great over the last 3 years!
Headed out to Moab just before Labor Day. You just added some more trails I wanna see, don't know how I'm supposed to do it all in a little over a week. Thanks a lot lol. Already have a camp site reserved in Canyonlands for a night, and have multiple other trails I wanna do. I did notice a few narrow spots like where John was spotting. Wide enough for a crew cab F250 on 35s to squeeze through?
Head over to our website and hit the trail page for this trails. If for some reason it isn't addressed in there, and you are all access, you can ask the trail page creator what he thinks.
@@Trailsoffroad Really amazing how trails can change. I was just out there before Labor Day and that first rocky ledge was more washed out and ended up making for a steeper drop. Didn't help that I had to stay further left with how big my F250 is. Also the wash out you mentioned was pretty gnarly compared to what I've seen in other videos, there were some storms that came through the area a couple nights before, so I'm guessing it was from that. And man did some of those areas along there look a lot more narrow in my F250 haha.
👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍
THank you
Great vid, subbed. Are the hour estimates for each trail section generous (includes the exploring on foot parts)? or just the drive time? Thx
Our duration estimates are just for the drive time of the trail. For the hiking scene at 8:10 minute mark, I would say it would be minimum 30 minutes round trip to just get to the scenery. Thanks for watching!
Well done! How sandy is it to drive on a mountain bike through Salt Valley? Difficult? Impossible?
Hard to give an accurate answer for mountain biking but all I know is that I would much rather drive a vehicle through it than a bike. It is pretty sandy.
Great trail and video. Would like to do this. Do you do/lead tours? Would be interested in something like that.
We have some writers that offer tours through 3rd party business. Send us a email at Info@TrailsOffroad.com with the area you are wanting and we will get you connected with a person.
I would like to ride along with you guys in a stock jeep jlu rubicon (xtreme pckg) with a winch and maxtrax (as of off roading gears) to know it's real capabilities in stock form. Done it once in a Toyota (bone stock) and ended up being winch out a couple of times due to clearance issue.
Thanks for watching and if you ever see us on the trails, don't hesitate to come on up and say hi and come wheel with us. We love wheeling with new friends!
0:48 Some say Todd is still standing in that field today, hand held high, eagerly awaiting his high five... (And if you listen very carefully on a moonless night in Moab, you may hear the breeze whistling between his fingers...)
hahahahaha. Some legends come from true places.
Going to Moab next month, I have 35s but no lift yet…so you think we need a lift before then? You mentioned 5 trails in Klondike bluffs, which ones were they?
Hi April. The 4runner in the video was on 33's, so definitely doable without 35's. As usual, make sure you have good communications to the outside world and make sure you have a plan in case something happens. All the trails are mentioned in the footnotes to this video. Hop on the website and you can read more info about each one and what kind of vehicle we would recommend. Have fun! Its an awesome route through Moab.
Looks amazing!!! Whatever happened to the trailsoffroad app?
Its just around the corner
This looks like there aren't any spots too tight. I think some sections of this path don't allow UTVs.... Anything too tight for a F250 to get through?
Hi there! You shouldn't have any issues in a full-size (height or width-wise), but I would recommend 35's for a bigger rig to comfortably be able to complete this loop. Definitely go check it out, and leave a trail review if you do! We love to see the pics.
i know just joking about it, great video. tho
thank you
beautiful sites to see there in moab,ut. going to see archers national park myself and the family but cant travel those roads due to only having 2wd. to note one funny thing, on the video time in, 15:47 there was a sign stating ALL TYPES OF OFFROAD VEHICLES PROHIBITED THEN IT SHOWS A SIGN OF M/C OK???? SO WHAT IS A JEEP DOING THERE OFFROAD???? , its funny how the state of utah prohibites , only m/c from offroad when offroading is OFFROADING ?, GREAT VIDEO GUYS I WOULD BUY A JEEP , BUT IM 6'-8" TALL, CANT FIT. LOOKING TO BUY 4X4 IN THE NEAR FUTURE?
Thanks for watching! That sign is referring to off-highway vehicles, street licensed vehicles are permitted in the park on designated roads.
Off-Highway and Off-road are different categories of vehicle under the law. A "highway" in Utah law is any public road, so an "Off-Highway Vehicle" or OHV is a dirtbike or ATV that does not have a license plate. An "off-road vehicle" is not a legal definition of vehicles.
What are you using for communication?
We are using ham radios in this video, but some of us are also running GMRS now due to how common they are becoming. Thanks for watching!
What’s the suspension setup on the JL?
Its a Superlift 4" kit with Fox shocks
How did the KO2s do on the 4 Runner?
They did good
What top is on that white jeep wrangler? It looks lifted. Where did you get it, and what weight allowances does it have for roof top tents?
Hi Nathaniel, it's called an Ursa Minor. It's a full top replacement with a tent that pops up. Check it out here! ursaminorvehicles.com/
@@Trailsoffroad Awesome. Very much appreciate the response. I'll look it up. Any other place where typical/major changes tend to be made on wranglers? I'm looking to get my first one and am trying to do research into what to buy standard, what to be upgraded by the dealer, and what to do myself with my VERY limited skills. I have a feeling that the dealer may offer some overpriced things (like a tailgate hinge upgrade or half doors with uppers) that might be better bought elsewhere. But I don't really know for certain or where to go if they were.
Nathaniel, what I could do if I were to do it all over again is start as minimal as you can. If you get a Rubicon, leave it stock for a while and just see what its limitations are. If you didn't get a rubicon, maybe throw some good tires on there and start wheeling it. They are super capable rigs out of the box. IMO, the best factory mods are the LED lights (which I don't have, and regret), the tow package (gives you the 4 fused AUX switches in the cabin), and if you are in a cold area, maybe the cold weather package. If you ever have any other questions, leave us a feedback on our site and we'd love to help you out! www.trailsoffroad.com/feedback
@@Trailsoffroad Thank you for the advice. I've heard about the lights and tow package from multiple people and videos. Yes, that's a definite upgrade I want. From there my main concern is reinforcing the tailgate and seeing if there are more comfortable seats.
I'm a bigger guy, so I prefer flat seats to those with edges that stick up. Also, if memory serves, the stock seats were about 2" too short and felt like they needed to provide more support. Being able to scoot them back further as well would be nice. I've heard that there's an extended track for that? I don't mind taking up back seat foot area. I'll only have passengers back there 1% of the time I drive it. If that.
Finally, is there a way to LOWER the seats? I think that I'm at an ok height, but lowering the seat an inch or two wouldn't be bad either. I need to do more test driving, but the wrangler sits rather prim and proper compared to my 2005 toyota tundra, which is a bit more relaxed.
Are Side by sides allowed on these trails?
Head over to our website, the link is in the description above. There you will find the information for the district in charge of the trail. You can reach out to them for confirmation if you can take sxs's on the trail.
Anyone know if there are restrooms at either of these spots?
At the beginning of Klondike Bluffs a few porta potty have been set up, and at the very end at the picnic area inside the park is a more traditional vault toilet which is always spotless! So just the beginning and end.
Are there maps available for the trails you traveled.
Hey Herb, yes in the description we have the links to our trail guides.
Thanks for the great videos and I will be posting on your site and getting all access. Do you have plans to sell any stickers or t-shirts, I would love to buy and help support your work and I need some new stickers for my Jeep 😃
There is things in the works. But a funnier way to get a sticker is to ask a crew member out on the trail. We usually carry some in our vehicles.
Can it be ran in a Tundra?
Hey Jose, head over to our website and check out the trails there. We have all the details needed to make that decision.
How long does it take to complete this trail?
To complete every trail in this video would take the entire day! It took us 12 hours to film it and run it all, so I would assume 6-8 hours depending on how much you want to take your time to enjoy and explore.
1 day
Awesome! Thanks for the info! Also, if I wanted to run this exact trail would it be possible to find a detailed lay out on your site?
I see some familiar stuff, but some parts I've never seen before. I wouldn't be offended if someone wanted to hook a brother up with a gpx. file for that bit before Tower Arch.
You can pull that right off the trailsoffroad.com website :)
Did you air down? If so to what?
we always air down. to what depends on a lot from tire size, type of rim and size, and weight of vehicle
@@Trailsoffroad I’ll be running 315/70/17 on the oem 2014 Jk wheel
depending on weight a lot of people run 10 to 12 psi
love your videos, BUT please be consistent with your Audio... it goes loud when music comes on and voice over is low.
Thanks for the feedback Rio. We are working on improving these format of videos.
This was my first off-road trip in my Land Cruiser so many years ago. Good times. In fact, if people are so inclined I have the entire uncut trail here just to see what's out there.
czcams.com/video/ydNSIP1rJ9o/video.html
My camera battery ran out but we did the exact same trip.
Go to our website and share this video there in the trip reports section
@@Trailsoffroad Done.
The music really detracts from this video.
Thank you for your feedback
