3 Best friends set out to tackle the Iconic Rubicon Trail. We're Overlanders, not Rock Crawlers, so our learning curve was steep and our preparation was intense. With no rock crawling experience, we dove headfirst into four months of preparation, exploring everything from beginner trails to grueling terrains. Along the way, we transformed our Bronco Raptor, Jeep 392, and Jeep Wrangler, learning the art of spotting and modifying our vehicles for the challenge ahead.

Over three heart-pounding days, we faced steep climbs, rocky obstacles, and breathtaking vistas, each moment pushing us to our limits. Watch as we evolve from Rubicon newbies into fearless trail warriors, united by our passion for adventure and the thrill of the unknown. 🌟

We cover all of the main obstacles, including Gate Keeper, The Bowl, the Slabs, Whale Bones, Ellis Creek Bridge, Walker Hill, Soup Bowl, Merlins Bench, V Notch, Indian Hill, Buck Island Lake, Big Sluice(Hairpin, Sawtooth, V Rock, Scout Hole), Property Line, Rubicon Springs, Cadillac Hill, and Observation Point.

From breathtaking landscapes to intense trail fixes, this episode captures the essence of off-road exploration. Whether you’re a seasoned wheeler or a nature lover, there’s something here for everyone!
