Once again we make our way to Ocala National Forest for an off-road trail ride. Ocala National Forest (ONF) is so bug, there are always new areas and trails to discover. We have barely scratched the surface, and will need many rides to even make a dent here in the number of places to ride. We did hit some new spots. Some of the trails did cross or ride along the same trails included in the recently release Florida Adventure Trail (F.A.T.). This was not intentional, but I did see this show up here and there in my GAIA GPS. It is the dry season in Florida, so the trails were definitely more dusty that our last trip. Typically, most of ONF is dry, but there are usual water or muddy areas. We were able to hit some wetness at the end of our side, so stay tuned for that. We started the ride in the Hopkins Prairie Area. This is a really popular dispersed camping area. There is a campground close by that seemed pretty nice, but in non-hunting season most people tend to dispersed camp here. We hope you like the video! We welcome comments and questions. ------------------------------------------ Check out our other Social Media and Helpful Links: https://linktr.ee/fiveangelsoutdoor ------------------------------------------ Partners we work with: Black Beard Fire Starters - Discount Code: FIVEANGELS http://blackbeardfire.com/fiveangels Devos Outdoor (Camp Lighting) - Discount Code: FIVEANGELSOUTDOOR https://www.devosoutdoor.com/discount/FIVEANGELSOUTDOOR Tags: #offroad #overland #camping #camp #4x4 #jeep #tacoma #overlanding #bronco #ocalanationalforest #treadlightly camping, jeep, overlanding, camp, overland, tent camping, camping gear, car camping, 4x4, off-road, offroading, wheeling, overland build, overland gear, camping gear, AEV ZR2 Bison, AEV Bison, Chevy ZR2, ZR2 Bison, explore, adventure, outside, bronco, jeep, Mojave, Rubicon, yj, tj, jku, jlu

Wildlife on the way up! Not typical to see a bear or elk (I would think), but we saw both on the way to this campground. Our overlanding journeys take us to many different campgrounds along with areas for dispersed camping. That being the case, we are looking to ensure that we can show our viewers the experiences we have in these places, so you all can judge whether to camp here or not in the future. In this video, we will be showing Cataloochie Campground which is located in the Smoky Mountain National Park. We stopped here on our journey as we moved from the Hurricane Creek in North Carolina over to Northern Georgia. It sure was a nicely maintained and cool campground that was situated right on a river. This made for a scenic view and great sleeping!

Let's install some ceramic brake pads on our Chevy Colorado ZR2 Bison! Our truck does go through some extreme use. We are constantly off-road on trails, extreme terrain, and in braking situations that are not typical of road driving. That being the case, we feel that our OEM brakes from GM have not been up to par with the vehicle. We do not have a lot of miles on our truck, but we have already had to replace pads on the Chevy Colorado ZR Bison. We do not tow, but with all of the off-road use, and the fact that our vehicle is typically loaded with gear, puts a strain on the stock brakes. We have decided to upgrade to Powerstop Z36 Extreme rotors and pads from Powerstop Brakes to help us with our stopping power and get longer life from the ceramic pads. The rotors in this kit are drilled and slotted. The brake pads are ceramic brake pads. This video will cover the brake pad install and we have chosen ceramic pads. These should give us better, longer lasting stopping power! In part 1, we upgraded our rotors. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/F8ieNSoddaI The process for the rotors should be the same for; 2020 Chevy Colorado 2021 Chevy Colorado 2022 Chevy Colorado 0:00 Intro 0:51 Getting started with Rear Pads 2:04 Front Pad Install 17:11 Summary and Feedback #brake #z36extreme #powerstop #chevycolorado #Powerstopbrakes #brakejob #rotorupgrade #brakerepair #zr2 #bisonpa

Our overlanding journeys take us to many different campgrounds along with areas for dispersed camping. That being the case, we are looking to ensure that we can show our viewers the experiences we have in these places, so you all can judge whether to camp here or not in the future. In this video, we will be showing S-Tree Campground which is located in the Daniel Boone National Forest near McKee, Kentucky. We stopped here on our journey as we moved from the Daniel Boone Backcountry Biway to the Kentucky Adventure Tour. This was an awesome trip, and this campground was a welcome stop. Here is the link to information on the campground: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/dbnf/recarea/?recid=39572 We rolled in on a Tuesday, so we had the campground all to ourselves!!!! It made for quite the time. This is a remote campground, so the sounds of the forest were perfect to relax to. We started up a campfire and wound down from our day of traveling and off-roading. This rest was needed after we had completed “Hard 2” and the K.A.T.!!! Enjoy the video. If you have any questions, type some comments!

We use our Chevy Colorado ZR Bison pretty extreme. We are constantly off-road on trails, extreme terrain, and in braking situations that are not typical of road driving. That being the case, we feel that our OEM brakes from GM have not been up to snuff. We do not have a lot of miles on our truck, but we have already had to replace pads on the Chevy Colorado ZR Bison. We do not tow, but with all of the off-road use, and the fact that our vehicle is typically loaded with gear, puts a strain on the stock brakes. We have decided to upgrade to Powerstop Z36 Extreme rotors and pads from Powerstop Brakes to help us with our stopping power and get longer life from the ceramic pads. The rotors in this kit are drilled and slotted. The brake pads are ceramic brake pads. This video will cover the rotor install, because the pads changed from 2021+ and the pads in the kit we ordered were incorrect. The pads in this kit would only fit 2015-2020 Chevy Colorado We will have a part 2 video to show the replacement of the brake pads. The process for the rotors should be the same for; 2015 Chevy Colorado 2016 Chevy Colorado 2017 Chevy Colorado 2018 Chevy Colorado 2019 Chevy Colorado 2020 Chevy Colorado 2021 Chevy Colorado 2022 Chevy Colorado #brake #z36extreme #powerstop #chevycolorado #Powerstopbrakes #brakejob #rotorupgrade #brakerepair #zr2 #bison

We made our way from North Carolina to Northern Georgia near the town of Suches, GA. We took the Bison on a crazy off-road trail in true overland style to make our way to an extremely scenic overlook. The view was amazing! It was well worth the crazy, sketchy, rocky, incline of an unnamed off-shoot trail. The view was overlooking YJ Gap, and you could see mountains in the distance like Abe Mountain, and Little Cedar Mountain. There are some hiking trails in the area, and I see on GAIA GPS that there are actual waterfalls along Canada Creek to go see. That would be agreat adventure as well. I would definitely want to come back out here again. It was amazing!

In this video, I'm taking my Chevy ZR2 Bison overlanding trail at Hurricane Creek Trail NC in the Pisgah National Forest. This trail is a great place to test out your overlanding gear. If you're thinking about taking your Jeep overlanding on a trail, be sure to check out Hurricane Creek Trail NC! The trail is maintained by the Forestry Service and is a great place to explore the mountains of North Carolina! We have made out way deeper into North Carolina. This episode takes us to the Hurricane Creek Trail. This trail in the Pisgah National Forest is very popular. It is such a cool trail, too. There are multiple water crossings as the trail follow Hurricane Creek. The trail has its challenges, but it is not too extreme. It is a great overlanding destination to do some off-roading. There are also plenty of areas to camp, or to just hang out with some friends with your rigs. We entered off I-40 just past the Harmon Den exit sign. It sneaks up on you fast, so be sure to pay attention. I hope this video shows some things that other videos do not. I feel that the trail was so much fun. The videos do not do it justice. We had an awesome time, and we look forward to going back, so we can share the experience with others.

We continue our adventure by making our way to North Carolina. In this episode of the Overlanding series, we're headed to Buzzard Roost Scenic Overlook on our way to the Hurricane Creek Trail. That turned out to be a great idea. The road to Buzzard Roost that we took became the Goat Trail, which was an awesome offroad track. The path went through a variety of terrain. We traveled up elevation and down elevation. We were mostly in the forest, and we crossed some creeks and saw some great camping spots. We transitioned from the initial gravel road to nice rocky and cobble stone type trails. There were challenging spots that were rutted and off-camber. This Goat Trail proved to be awesome. When we did make it to Buzzard Roost, we were not disappointed . The overlook was amazing. The view of the mountains and looking down on I-40 and the Pidgeon River was spectacular!!!

Kentucky Adventure Tour Day 2. We continue our journey into central Kentucky. We have hit some great trails here. The terrain changes quite often. We see logging operations, mountain roads, water crossing, mud holes, and we stumble don a Civil War Battlefield site, the Battle of Camp Wildcat! We continue to have an great time out on the trail. Kentucky is such an amazing state and the KAT is a great way to see it. Sadly, we are only doing the two days. We will have to come back next year to finish out the loop.

#shorts #offroad #camping Always great to finish a day of off-roading, 4x4, and overlanding with a water crossing to give the truck a bath. Nice fun and wash the mud off, as well!!!!

We made it to Kentucky in our Chevy Colorado ZR2 AEV Bison!! Our overlanding journey started early in the morning at the northern point of the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway near Callie’s Campground. We set off in a counterclockwise direction. Our plan was to spend two days in Kentucky off-roading, wheeling, crossing streams and rivers, and doing some general adventuring. We would end up doing a little more than 100 miles on this first day. We transitioned from the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway to the Kentucky Adventure Tour. In some places they do overlap, but the start of our journey was on the DBBB. We hit some great spots like Furnace-Pilot Road, Watson's Ridge Road, Patsey Road, Red's Hollow Road, we passed Hollerwood Off-Road Park, Fixer Road, drove through Beatyville, Spencer Ridge Road, CR1241, Turkey Foot Road, Hard 2, and we ended this day at the S-Tree Cmapground. It was really wild to get into some different terrain. The winding mountain roads, the gravel going up elevation and then back down into the valleys, and the rocky, rutted trails. We saw and marked spots for tent camping, car camping, and other areas of interest. It was a super scenic ride. We saw abandoned industry like mines and oil derricks. There were a lot of pipes and things running along the streams. I was curious f there were any good fish. In some places, I would not think so. All in all this was a super fun ride. I would much rather do it with a group, because there are things best shared! Check out our video, like it, and subscribe to our channel!!!!

We are excited to continue our Expedition East video series by posting Episode 2 of our travels. We are in Northern Michigan. We prepared for this part of our journey by downloading the Michigan ORV routes from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) website: https://midnr.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=1710727ba3ec4c64928110fdb4f7799d We left camp on Saturday morning and headed up to Upper Lower Michigan. We camped out at the Pickerel Lake State Forest Campground (video to come), and on Sunday morning we hit the trails in our AEV ZR2 Bison. This video covers our first real trail day. We deciding to do our trail ride on the Kalkaska ORV (Offroad Vehicle Route). We got onto the trail right at County Road 612, and we headed south and then southwest toward the Manistee National Forest. We even saw a famous Bra tree where women have hung bras for Breast Cancer Awareness. This was our first experience doing some Michigan offroad trail riding and camping. These trails are mostly multi-use offroad trails. They are used by snowmobiles in the winter, and by Jeeps, ATVs, and Side-by-Sides in the other months. The trails were not difficult or technical. They were very sandy. It reminded me of Florida. There were more elevation changes than Florida, and the scenery did change, but there were a lot of similarities. One thing to call out was the condition of the trail. They were horribly corrugated/washboarded. Most likely due to the abuse of the smaller vehicles, but it was pretty rough on the suspension and the truck itself. The AEV Bison took a lot of continual punishment. I could see the bed and topper shaking in my side mirrors looking back. Sort of scary. All in all, it was a fund day. We did see some other vehicles on the trail, so that was cool. We were able to relax, walk around and stretch our legs as needed. The weather was prefect, and there was a lot of real cool things to see along the trail. We hope you enjoy the video. We look forward to your comments. If you missed Episode 1 from out visit to American Expeditionary Vehicles (AEV) see it here: https://youtu.be/BClnCB4Fozo

We have thoroughly enjoyed our 2021 Chevy Colorado AEV ZR2 Bison with the American Expeditionary Vehicles (AEV - @American Expedition Vehicles) Upfit. This vehicle is such an awesome 4x4 on the trail. It is great for camping and great for overlanding. When we saw the message below from AEV, we jumped at the chance to take and epic overlanding expedition to Michigan for the open house, and then we would use the journey back to camp, off-road, and hit the trails. What could be a better way to use this truck and all of the overland gear we have. from AEV: "It's been a couple years, but we are bringing back the AEV Open House on September 16th at our HQ in Wixom, Michigan! Show off your vehicle (not required to attend), tour our headquarters, check out our builds and meet the AEV Team. Enjoy complimentary food and drinks on us from Bigalora, Arbor Brewing Company, and Baia Estate Wine." It was mazing to get into the event and see where all of the magic happens. What a facility, and what a great group of people, both employees of AEV and all of the customers that I met. Our aev bison was a hit in the lot with all of the other customer vehicles.
