It was definitely a challenge but have another person with 4x4 helps just in case

I just picked up a 2024 Colorado ZR2 a couple weeks ago, and am new to real offroading though I "softroaded" my 2010 V6 AWD RAV4 for years since I bought it new. So, I want to go slow, especially since I'm going alone and the truck is really new to me and I'm not 100% sure where the wheels and corners are, and what the turning radius is like. So, easy to easy/moderate trails are what I want until I get more skill and confidence in the truck. I know the ZR2 has WAY more capability than I can use now, so, that's good, I can grow into it. Thanks for videotaping easy trails us noobs can learn on!

@@Michael_Tran Yup! I always go out alone, so, I wanted a vehicle with a LOT more capability than the trusty RAV, that I ALMOST got stuck a couple of times over the years. WAY out in BFE by myself, so, it was kinda sketchy. So, now I've got the ZR2, I just bought a tow strap, soft shackles, a hitch ring, and a high performance air pump, and I'll be bringing all that with me. I plan on getting a good shovel, an offroad jack, and some other stuff when I get time, I just had time to get these essentials. I have a Garmin satellite beacon (from exploring on my KTM 890 ADV R) in case I (or someone I run across) get hurt, that I'm bringing too. Maybe I'll see ya out on the trails! Happy wheelin'!

#1 absolutely without a doubt should be Monument Valley. The trail is in Navajo nation territory that technically spans Arizona, but the scenery is astounding, and if you're going to Valley of the Gods, you aren't far and should definitely include it. There's a fee to enter, currently $8/person. If you want to see the old west, this is it. The entire 17 mile loop can be done with autos, but a car-based SUV will be able to traverse the worst parts without having to drive carefully.

My point was just that it might be foolish for people with 2WD to take these trails unless they know they will be turning around.
