So far, I have enjoyed this series a lot. This is now March 2023, so the trails have probably changed some. I did check the USGS gauge readings and they have been higher now that they were when you were there. Your comments are a great reference to use to compare readings in the future. On another subject, the Jeeps have handled to more technical parts better than the Toyotas in every instance. This is coming from a Toyota Sequoia owner. It's lifted 3" and has 33s and I run it because I sleep inn my vehicle and at 64, I just enjoy the security and the room. his still makes me want a 2012, or later Unlimited Rubicon.
I did this trail 2 weeks ago. The spot just up from the Union School has gotten pretty rough! Made it in my 15 Jeep Wrangler
I've never driven a Toyota offroad and after watching this video I doubt I ever will lol those down hill 3 wheeler spots can't be good for the heart
purely awesome, IMO the best video so far of the 5 day series! Loved that you changed the music, it creates a more adequate ambiance to the technical routes.

Was that a valve stem on the 4 runner or side wall damage? if valve stem , one of those quick stem's could have been helpful. Y'all really did some technical stuff. I really like the map at the end showing the route. Thanks for sharing.

Luckily the glass was a easy fix - much better than body damage. I've probably run 80% of the trails in the Ozarks so I still have some more exploring to do.

@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Thank you. Our group wants to run this but would rather avoid the huge amounts of mud if possible. Do you have any recommendations on where to find routes to follow in the Ozarks or this particular route? Thanks, Joel
Another great place to stop is Mountain Fork Creek Falls, it's not too far off of Mountain Creek Rd on (FS94468A) and is a great place to swim and play around in the water. Also close to that is Sixty Foot Falls right off the trail and is pretty cool when the water is flowing good. If you're already in the area it's worth the stop.

Jared Hornberger yeah that’s an awesome spot. I love to camp there. Because it’s an out and back and it’s getting torn up by side by sides I didn’t want to include it on this route.
Not worried about the mudholes, but are there by-passes for the rockier sections? I will be there in a full-size pickup and some of those steps looked a little scary.

Both the roads into spy rock hollow have really gotten torn up over the years , being so close to Byrd’s, it’s literally worn out from the side by sides then the resulting erosion . I hope they leave both open , unlike the one in from the west from the pig trail. So was the northern end of Morgan mt. Rd blocked ? I know they were rebuilding a lot of it. Nice video. Thanks

Dave Lay yeah that area has gotten bad!! I was surprised how much it had changed since I was there last. The gates they had put in place a few years ago have now been removed which I thought was interesting. The northern part of Morgan Mtn was still closed from the massive mud slide. It’s much worse than I imagined and reminded me of avalanche debris I saw in Colorado. I’m really not sure if it’s repairable which is sad.

Matt I didn’t know it had a slide up there, it’s been a while since I’ve been through it . I bet they fix it like the slide off Richland that was so bad a few years ago. But that took a couple years to fix. I’m with you on the gates being removed I found that odd. I wonder if the SXS group had something to do with that ? If I remember right the southern gate had a opening for the 50” and under atv’s which very few sxs fit in that category anymore
I'd love for you to create a book for the ONF similar to the books Charles Wells did. I'd buy it!

josh catt that would be a big undertaking. It’s hard for the Ozarks because we don’t have long named trails. We just have shorter forest service roads.
