Leg 1 Reroute Confirmation
Being stopped by private property on our first trip out it was time to see if the reroute would be viable. Ride along with us as we take a day trip out into the high desert to determine the fate of this route. Good roads, bad roads and some cool things to see on along the way so stay tuned for adventure.

Well, we did a full route verification trip last week. We were out for 8 days! Good times and the route was a success for the most part. I do have to reroute a bit on leg 3. Not where I had anticipated to reroute though, so it was some in field wandering that got us back on track. We had 12 vehicles that started with us, and we finished with 6. I had 4 other content creators join us for the trip. Some for a day and another for the whole trip. It will be some time before I get my videos up. But if you like you can check out the other channels to see their take on the route.

Softroadingthewest (Donald) was with us for day three of the trip.


DxD Overland (Mark Doiron) was a trooper and stayed with us the entire trip.


Backroad Exploration (Jared) Was with us the first 3 days of the trip. He does not currently have any videos of the trip up. Check out his channel he should have videos up soon.

Sagebrushbob (Bob) was with us for the first 4 days. Not sure if he will be putting any video out of the trip or not. I did see him do some video work so check his channel out just in case.


I hope to get my videos put together and out late winter, early spring if all goes well. Till then enjoy these channels experiences on the route.

Some nice trails, and scenery is awesome. Looks like a couple mods, on a couple rigs, would help fare better over that rough terrain. Otherwise looks like a flawless adventure :)

Some of you already know that I am not releasing the WEIOR video series publicly till later this year, probably December/February time frame. I want to be able to release them weekly, so I need to build some videos up in the feed. It will be some time till I have enough finished video to feel comfortable to start releasing them publicly.

With that said, I am releasing some "uncut videos" to keep people interested in the route. These are the first two posted. Keep your eyes out for more to follow.

Running a bit late for posting up dates for the New Year, but finally they are here.

Feb 1 - Winter Wonderland VIII - 116 Miles Grandview to Grandview

A winter day out in the desert again. If weather permits, we will travel a old trail/road that follows near the Bruneau River. This route starts at 2400ft and slowly rises to 5100ft. If there is snow, like all the other winter wonderland trips, we will continue until we can't. Of all the Winter Wonderland trips we have taken so far, we have been slowed down, but never stopped by snow or mud. Can we make it this time? Join us and find out...

April 24-27 - St Anthony - 270 Miles Rupert to Arco

Starting with 170 miles of desert driving pleasure and then a sand pit to play in. It will be early in the year so the desert should be showing it's spring colors. The first destination is in the title, then a trip over for some exploring near Howe, Idaho. This trip will have a 206 mile distance between fuel stops, without playing in the sand, so make sure to have plenty of fuel.

May 2-4 - Mordor V10.0 - ?

Continuing the Mordor tradition, we head back into the desert for some more exploring fun. This trip will be a base camp type trip. Two nights at the same spot with a day of adventure on the nearby two tracks. Don't miss out on the fun.

Sep 13-14 Bennett Trails - 76 miles Glenns Ferry to Gooding

Last trip of the year is a overnighter. Heading out into the Bennett hills to see what there is to see. There will be some short hiking if time permits. Only 76 miles, but they could be some rough ones. Time will tell See you on the last trail of the year!

Well, hope you guys are as excited for the year as I am. I hope so see some of you on one of these trips.

And as usual, these are not guided tours and all who attend are ultimately responsible for their own safety. I am not responsible for damage, injury and or death. You partake under your own free will knowing the dangers of such activities.

See you on the trails! George.
