The perfect Overland Trip // Georgia Traverse Part 1

This is the beginning our our incredible journey across the Georgia Traverse. I met up with my new friends Dee and Carver for an Epic 5 day adventure crossing Georgia from Alabama to South Carolina. This turned out to be the perfect overland trip. We had our share of struggles, but that's par for the course in overlanding, but at the end of the day, it really was a perfect trip! This is episode one of the 3 part series overlanding the Georgia Traverse, so make sure you check out the other episodes.

    Wow Georgia looks absolutely amazing. I loved the narration throughout the entire video, your voiceovers sound great, the drone shots look great and your editing is great. Camera quality looks great in 4k. Really enjoyed part 1.🎉

    Absolutely incredible. I drive a 94 Silverado 4x4 parking lot princess with stock Michelin street tires. Did the TAT 2 years ago no problems. Did Pickett’s had to repaint. Did the KAT not to bad some scratches. Looks like from your videos maybe get through without too many rubs.

    Well it was 8 hours on the trail, but most of it was driving pretty slow. We did less than 90 miles. We did bring fuel, but we didn’t need to use it. We filled up pretty early the next day. That’s in part 2.
