Jeep Trips

Our off-roading adventures have taken us to rugged backroads, scenic overlooks, hidden waterfalls, and trailheads we never would’ve found otherwise.

 

Some days are slow and scenic, others are rocky and challenging — but all of them lead to unforgettable views and stories.

​

We use onX Offroad to help us navigate trails, check land boundaries, and stay on legal routes so we can focus on the fun part — exploring. 

​

On this page, you’ll find the trails we’ve tackled, what to expect, tips for beginners, and the incredible places off-roading has taken us .

FULL TRAIL:
Twin Falls

Just a half-mile hike stands between you and this stunning 48-foot waterfall! The road to the trailhead gets steep and bumpy—so the adventure starts before you even hit the trail.
