Gulches Jeep Badge Of Honor - The Carnage Is Unbelievable

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This year, we have challenged ourselves to obtain as many ‪@Jeep‬ Badge Of Honor badges from the East Coast as we can. In April 2023, 13 Jeeps arrive at Gulches Off Road Park in North Carolina, the next badge trail on the list. This is planned to be a long 3 day weekend, camping, exploring and off roading all weekend in hopes to earn that next Jeep Badge.
We set up camp, relax the first day and get to know all of our Jeepers that came along with us. Sitting by a fire, cooking some dinner and cracking open a cold one, it was a perfect night with good friends.
Early Saturday morning, we wake up to some hot coffee and breakfast, just before we set off to explore Gulches Off Road Park. Gulches is a relatively small park at only 80 acres, however it has ALOT to offer. Super easy trails for exploring and advanced "level 9" rock crawling trails for those willing to take on the challenge.
During the weekend, we ended up loosing 3 Jeeps. 1 broken axel, 1 broken steering box and 1 Jeep that exploded into pieces with shocks / springs shooting out of the wheel wells.
Come along on our adventure to take on the challenge of Gulches and obtain our next Jeep Badge Of Honor.

    Reminds me of a recent trip to badge of honor trails at Stoney lonesome. After several mishaps by a young driver, I reminded his dad that he learned several lessons today. Keep your head about you and don’t ever give up. We ended up getting home at 2:00 pm with all vehicles intact.

    Yea... I don't really know what this guy was thinking other than the fact he was a young man with 2 young girls in the car.... (fill in the blanks 🤣). I do know this was his "farm truck play toy" so beating it senseless was part of the fun for him. He fixed it and was at our next ride just 2 weeks later. We did Stoney Lonesome about 3 months ago. I filmed and documented that weekend also but I have been so caught up with work, I have neglected to finish the editing of that video. I have been working on it last week and I'm hoping to have that one ready to launch this week.

    Super fun off road park! Lots of people tear up their rigs there. Gulches is actually in Waterloo, South Carolina, not North Carolina.

    Very cool video. I just picked up my new JL just before Christmas and I'm testing out what I can do with it. 2024 Rubicon 6-spd. Nothing too complicated. So far I've just tried a little of SCAR (2-3 difficulty). I would love to make it a goal to obtain a badge or 2 this year. Hopefully that's doable on the easy trails. It looks like Gulches is the only badge of honor in SC loo obtain, my home state. Cheers!

    congrats on the Jeep my friend. Its is defiantly a "lifestyle" addition, far more than any other vehicles. a 24 Rubicon is perfect. you will be shocked at what it can do and what it's capable of, however I would say take it slow on the build and get comfortable with it as a stock jeep before dumping a lot of money into it. a stock rubicon is more than capable. Also, join some Jeep Facebook groups and hop on a couple of rides with them. They are ALWAYS friendly and welcoming and you will learn a lot. If you want a really really fun adventure that is stock friendly with some of the most beautiful scenery in the Southeast, pack up the Jeep and drive the Georgia Traverse from South Carolina to Alabama. It will take you about 4 days of adventure camping and is super easy to do. check out this video we shot on the Georgia Traverse. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qn2E1MabhdG3eNI.htmlsi=7YxIsYR_TVV0sXts

    @RoadRashOffRoad Thank you! Yes I'm enjoying it as is and in no hurry to change a bunch of stuff out. I don't plan to do anything too technical anyway and it is my DD. I was super impressed with how it handled that little bit of SCAR that I did. Last time I ran that was in my 19 GC and while that did great, this was a cake walk. I joined a few Jeep FB groups and introduced myself. I'd love the opportunity to go on a ride with someone more experienced if it presents itself. I'm not sure about camping or multi-day events just yet. It's been forever since I've done that and I have a wife and kids who aren't into it lol. But I will figure something out. For now I'm starting off slow and seeing what local trails there are. I'm a little scared to do too technical or deep solo and without recovery gear so we will work up to that. I just figured earning a badge this year would be a cool goal. So I'm sure whatever I do for now will be no problem for my Rubi so I should be good.

    Thank you very much Greg.... this was a fun ride. You know honestly, I am not much of a "rock crawler" myself. I enjoy the overlanding side but a lot of the guys in my jeep club do love the harder trails like Gulches.... so it's nice when I can film some aggressive stuff along with the camping stuff that I like. you should defiantly give Gulches a try. It's a small park but worth the drive.

    Thank you for supporting the channel and I’m glad you find value in my videos. Usually, if there is a shot close on me or a shot i want to direct focus too, I’ll blur the background. But if it’s an action shot or a shot to see the landscape, trail, environment, it will not be blur. Still learning how to be a video content creator

    Thank you for the advice Anna. I did all 3 trails at Windrock with no issues (you can watch that video on my channel as well). Recently we just completed our Stoney Lonesome BOH. 404 was an easy trail, Switchback was a bit difficult and Gut Buster was a NO GO for all Jeeps that went with us. I hope to get out to Moab one day but "rock crawling" is not really my thing.... I really enjoy the overlanding side of Jeeping.
