There are some great trails in your part of the country. South Dakota is one of my favorite places. Keep on with the good content Colt!!!

Dude that’s awesome!! I’m happy to see your work paying off. It’s awesome that you’re going to speak at such a prominent event. High freakin five man

Need more of these give south dakota more recognition for offroad trails

As a refugee from the PNW (Looney Left Coast) to the Black hills, I really appreciate this info. Thanks Colt!

Thanks for taking all of us on this little journey. Speaking of mud holes 🕳, they are what sustains our wonderful wildlife. Ripping through them for utube or just " cool " video destroys the habitat. All life needs that water, next time get out and see what tracks 👣 you will find, you may be surprised. Think about being out off road, not much water to drink, the jeep infront of you gets 5 gallons of drinking water, none left for you. You watch them wasting it and pouring it out, laughing. Next water the same thing, now you NEED water, next water same thing as they laugh at you. Keeping our trails open and working together to create more of them is for the future, not the moment . Tread lightly, explore, educate and build some dreams for the children that will one day grow to follow in our footprints.

Clubs play a big part in trail conservation and education. People need to realize that every trail doesn't need to be a rated 10 to be a great trail..m conserve what we got and if we get more in the future see it as a blessing..

I like trails like these just mild cruising through the woods checking out the scenery 🤙

Awesome scenery and liking your build for the on x off road challenge as well colt

Thank you Kenneth

We brought our ATVs to the Black Hills five years in a row until the lockdowns started and haven't been back since. I would love to bring my XJ there someday.

It’s nice to see Colt look comfortable in a rig for a change lol

Love the Rats Nest but miss the Samurai. I really like the way the Suzuki sounds when it is rock crawling. Beautiful country there in the Black Hills.

Awesome. Thank you. 😊

Rats Nest started out as a spitting image of the Jeep I had back in the US. Mine had an inline 6, 4.0L engine, and I was SO sad when I had to move.

Thanks for picking up the trash. I do that a lot. I appreciate you for that. Always have I just never say anything about it cause it’s normal for me. I wish more picked up trash. Then we would actually be doing something for the environment 😂

Thanks Colt, good video. That's some beautiful country ya got there. By the way, rumor has it that "BigFoot" drives a slime green XJ sometimes!

Love the wheeling videos man cant wait to see that s10 done

That’s a fun looking trail to take the kids on and not worry too much about breakage or injury. We have great terrain like that here in PA, but sadly not very many trails available

This was just the vid I needed. This summer my daughter and I were going on a road trip around those parts

Glad I could help

Glad you advised us about the trail pass, the site I acquired the GPX file for those and other trails did not mention the pass requirement. I applaud your PSA about not widening the trails, whether it is mud holes or snow drifts. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah last summer we were staying south of Deadwood, in Sturgis they had softball sized hail and 65+ mph winds. So glad we missed that. It hails ALL the time out there 😕

We are currently in the Black Hills and are amazed at how green it is compared to eastern Nebraska where we live. Having a great time with the granddaughters who are here for the first time.

Nicely done…you are such a great ambassador for On-X…I hope they appreciate you!

"Bring it on, Mother Nature" -- HAHA ! Awesome vid Colt!!

I've been to the Black hills almost every year since 2004 during the Sturgis Rally and a few times on vacation with my kids on vacation. I figured there would have to be some trails there, but hadn't checked it out. That is frikin Awesome!!

Really cool trails there. Will have to keep those in mind once I finally start jeepin. Thank you for sharing Colt

I enjoy raspberry ridge. It’s a fun trail.

I am hoping to get to that part of the country to do some off roading.

My 37’s are doing the same thing lol I wish they’d put that tread pattern out again.

My wife and I have been going to that area for years with our SxS's! She won't take her Jeep, it is a pavement queen...lol. Not sure how you map system works, but the app we use (I won't say which one in case you are sponsored by the map app) runs off satellite so we always can see exactly where we are even without cell signal. Always love the beauty of Mother Nature out there!!

Heading up for the first time to TNT Rockfest next week in the Badlands! Staying another week to sight see and camp with the fam.

These videos are the kinds that I build wheeling trips around , problem is most locals don’t want people coming from across the country to their hidden gem riding spots. I hope to see a bunch more informational videos like this.

No, the Napier Hood vents are designed to prevent that and unless I was aimed down hill maybe water would creep into the engine bay but I haven't noticed any.

Awesome! Planning a trip up to the black his this September as a group of sxs from Missouri!! Any recommendations on more trails of this type?

There's tons of trails out there that aren't blocked by forestry hills or gate. And no signs. Yea I have video on my channel that shows a tow truck getting stuck trying to get to me. Where i was stuck. Because i went slow through a puddle That put me on my side. Sat there 16 hrs trying to get out because i went slow. Lolol. Speaking of gates. If y'all ever open a farm gate. Close the farm gate.

Why would anyone drive off-road and then go around the mud? The mud is part of the experience.

After years of promoting cheap Chinese made tires like they’re the best, now we get the truth when a new model comes out. Weak sidewalls, poor traction…still junk 😂

Don't drive fast through the mud but it's OK to cut down the trees 🤔🤔🤔
