- Merus Adventure Park is an incredible place to experience Palo Duro Canyon in the panhandle of Texas. We hosted our 2023 Patreon Fall Gathering there on a cold December weekend and had the best time! Not all of us made it out of the trails unscathed.

We've been to Merus twice. The husband usually drives on the trails, but Merus is a great place for us ladies to practice our driving skills. Don't be afraid!!! You have a lot of people there to help you along and driving Merus trails will boost your confidence. After all, if you ever get in a situation where the passenger has to drive, you need to know how to get out. Really loved the night runs.
Totally agree!!
Merus is a blast, went last Oct for the TrailRecon Summit with Brad... had an absolute blast.. my memory is pinstripe from front to rear on the passenger side...
Awesome video man! I’m in Texas and have to go to this park. I’m planning on February. Thanks for the awesome content as always.
Thanks so much!
A couple days at Merus will make anyone a better, more confident driver. There’s really no place like it. Awesome drone footage - 1st time I’ve seen shots that do the drop zone justice!
And for the record…1st time I ran Starlight I missed a turn slightly and ripped a hole in my tire the size of my hand
Couldn't agree more!
Love this park, need to go back and explore more. Amazing camp sites!!
Merry Christmas 🎄
Wow. That looks like so much fun. Dang, at about 50 minutes into your video....that shows just how bada** Cara's Jeep is. 😊. I'm in New Mexico and that looks a lot like it here. I'm going to have to check it out one day. Thanks as usual, for the great video. I'll watch the other one later.
Made a detour to Merus while we were in Texas for the Holidays. Too foggy to see much but a wonderful way to spend the day nonetheless.
Merry Christmas Eve!!!🎉
Nice obstacle hoole..like a teecup
...radman. 2feet deep
Such an awesome experience! Always great to meet new friends and see old ones! Thank you both for creating such an awesome community! Merry Christmas!
Thanks bro!!
I was out there in April, the videos and pictures do the beauty and the grades no justice. STEEP hills.
The vice grips brake line trick is the 1 thing i am taking from this video. Nice tip!
looked like good times and nice trails, put a toilet plunger on that door it should pull right out
Thanks for the video. I just heard about this park recently, after having passed though Amarillo last march, I would have never thought this could exist out there!
That park looks awesome! When trails look really steep on camera, you can bet they are super-steep in reality! Looks like everyone had fun!
Great video as always. Seen a few from there done by your buddy at trail recon. Would love to do his trail recon challenge one year if I get the opportunity to get over there
I want to do it as well!
So inspiring to get outside. I'm in Rexburg idaho and it's really snowing. But I still take my side by side out and have fun in it
I always look forward to Friday as I’m sure you already know. Good to see you again my dude.
windmills??? you saw wind terbins... spilling not good..
Your video quality and drone shots are awesome.
Thanks a ton!
This is not the wheelin i want to do but i do enjoy watching it lol
Love the banter at the end, great video and beautiful looking terrain.
That was an amazing day!
That was a blast to watch. Fun unique trails and lots of flexing and off camber stuff. Definitely a cool different experience. Looking forward to the next video!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!! Hellyeah, you both were flexing, and so was the gladiators .carnage is part of your overlanding. Mad respect for sending your gladiators. There are definitely not mall crawlers .killed it once again. And she's got the battle scares to prove it. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.
Thanks so much!
@36:53 Troy's rig just wanted someone to come down and give it a Belly Rub.
Well this video convinced me .. I will be part of your Patreon group in 2024
Thanks so much!!!
Time for a locker troy 18:18
Matt, I need to run with you guys for a while, need to gain skills with someone that has them already
Black bear pass was closed for rock slide mitigation early this last season, the group that got in trouble drove around the closure signs and got in overvtheirvheads by trying to drive past the slide. The sherif was angry because after they were rescued they posted on social media that the pass was open. I do not expect a permanent closure.
I hope you’re right
Did you notice less popping while turning in 4x4 with the new axles?
Im curious, you said you swapped to the HD springs. I Have a clayton 2.5 overland going on my JTDR with just a simple rack/fuel and recovery gear. Even if I add a tent do you think I really need the HD springs ? How bad where you sagging?
Greta video I need to make it out there. What are the thoughts so far on the Milestar X/T's?
Cara is loving them.
BTW, starting around 38:45, you can hear something pop as you drive through that area. Can't see anything, but wondering if that part of the trail caused issues with your tires.
You can see my tire causing the fender flare to bulge then popping loose. It’s possible that did something. No way to know for sure.
As a Colorado resident, I do think that if Black Bear (and other neighboring passes) can be cleared safely, they will re-open. The San Juans had a very snowy winter last year and stayed snowed in well into the summer. By the time officials could access the area, necessary rockslide mitigation couldn't be completed and get the pass open for 2023.
That said, when people take it upon themselves to "open" a pass without the appropriate officials involved, I think that can influence how much priority those officials put into getting trails open. The San Miguel County sheriff was pretty peeved that people were ignoring the closure last year and putting themselves (and others) at risk. So, before people go on trails - please verify with the appropriate agencies that the trails are truly open so there isn't a reason to close them permanently.
Matt....killer long video....again. Hey I like those purple pants dude....what brand? Link?
Revolution Race. I love them. amzn.to/49xQ489
Hello, how much do you estimate the loading in the bed? I'm looking for the Clayton 3.5" HD but I don't know if that's enough for the 1100lbs of extra loading in bed. Thank you for your response.
Do you chose not having a hard bed top do to weight? Or would it not make much of a difference
Fridges don’t work with bed slides
Looks like a blast! btw where would I find your Be Kind to Each other t shirt?
Thanks. Merch link is in the description.
Thanks Matt! Merry Christmas to you and your family
Seate 😊 Belt Saeves Lieves
No one died 🤷🏼♂️
😇😉
So what popped on your Gladiator going up that his after you had to readjust?
My fender
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures I'm going to have to look at rhat again
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures it sounded like your front suspension. Lol
@@rickhenry5468 it wasn’t. If you watch it you can see the tire pushing the fender flare up and then releasing it.
@OzarkOverlandAdventures ya I see it now
Time for a new rear bumper ?!?
Nothing wrong on my bumper.
Shitto’s strike again.
I don’t know what that means. 😂
Is ur wifes jeep geared or is it stock gears on 38's
4.56 gears that came stock with the Xtreme Recon package.
What has your wife been doing to lose weight
I think black bear was oregonaly closed because of rock fall
