Back in the 80s a group of us were 4-wheeling in the Mojave Desert. The area is a mix of public and private roads and it was difficult at times to know which was which. Came around a bend in a canyon and saw a GIANT sign next to the road, painted in red, "Turn Around or Be SHOT." That cleared up any confusion, we turned around.

What amazes me about the dump truck drivers is that they've put down gravel like this so often that they know exactly how to dump the load and spread it reasonably well at the right thickness and at the right speed. Good job guys.

We have had the same problem! We ended up getting cameras and put up a "Smile your on Camera" sign along with 2 speed bumps, and 3 alarms (to alert us). It's a shame that people are so rude!

Let the turtle go in the direction it was going. They have a mission.

Slide a piece of pvc pipe down the cable. It's white so paint some orange stripes on the pipe. Just a idea.

That truck driver did an excellent job tailgating the rock.

Off-Grid is so therapeutic to me but I also miss the farm animals. So happy 😁 to be in this journey with the Dutch family 😊

My husband used to say: Locks will keep out honest people! I hope this solves your problem!!!

I would put a smile for the camera sign up it might make them think about trespassing on your property. Love your channel.

I'm enjoying the progress. I'm loving seeing the whole family out there getting it done. With four ladies on the site you can't go wrong. Sweat equity and memories for a lifetime.

Great looking driveway. If you are going in and out a lot, you might want to consider a solar powered gate with a remote. We have one on our property and it has saved me often when it was raining and I didn’t want to have to stand out in the rain unlocking and locking my old manual gate.

The driveway looks awesome, I Love how it winds around instead of a straight shot. I know you did it to miss trees, but I think it's way prettier and more interesting. 👍👊😁

I've always heard if you move a turtle from the road, set him in the same direction it is going.....

Hey Dutch, love your vids. I'm not that type of person that likes raising but I love when you show your animals being raised, and your daughters, they do a good job with blogs, and raising/allowing the animals to thrive, so yeah!!!

Super nice of Kevin and his Dad to help. He's the real deal. If this doesn't keep them out there's always Crocker's way. He put a real nice looking gate to keep his trespassers out.

What a difference the road makes, one more load before the well digging? Cable should have an effect for sure. Loved seeing Hayden, Hadley and Hope and Brandy . Have a great week. God bless and stay safe 🙏❤

Woo hoo! Its real now😀 I'm so excited for you guys. I can hardly wait to see the drilling video. Never seen anyting like that before. Your property is just beautiful. Love all the 🌳. So cool you guys.

It's coming together little by little. Good job, SEMPER FI

I sure hope you have been able to protect your property from unwanted intruders. God bless you and your lovely family.

Looking more like a homestead. Great work family. This is what a family is.😊😊😊

I wish I could meet this dude one day. He’s awesome. I would love to have neighbors like him. Huge high five from Virginia bro!

That's really nice having your best friend close and his dad coming out to help it's looking wonderful be proud💜

That's good that you've put to cable up to keep the trespassers out! You may want to consider spray painting the cable a fluorescent orange, & keep your flags hanging down from the cable so it can bee seen at night. Stay safe. Bless you & your family.

Kevin and Randy are great workman love the way you all help each other job well done 👍❤️❤️👍👍

🤞 that stops whom ever has been trespassing on the property.. sad todays world there is so little respect for others property and belongings. Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻

Yea you got the gravel down!! That cable should stop the larger vehicles, good for you Dutch . Love seeing your videos 💕🙏 love and prayers for your family

hey dutch , im a land owner in nc and the very best thing ive found to keep folks out is to put up camera signs saying you have cameras . and put them up everywhere . lol folks dont like being filmed . good luck oh and love the vids , keep up the good work .

You were so meant to be a girl dad! I absolutely love seeing them with you and them playing being silly with each other. And seeing Brandy out there working with you, for me as a retired military spouse, is something that we don't get to do as often as we really want to. So my hat off to you, Brandy and the girls.

It seems that Off Grid Homesteads have problems with unwanted company What’s up? 1. What do they have as in supplies 2. Shelf stable food 3. Clean water sources 4. Animals ( food or transportation) Etc Because they want to know if they raid will benefit them

Thank goodness you have friends like Kevin. Hope this works for you. It is looking good. God bless you and yours.

The trick using the flatbed hydronic lorry is an awesome way to spread the type 2 gravel! If only my mother and I saw this video 20 years ago, I swear my backs still sore from when we layed our track ourselves!

Kevin is so funny when he said an attack on Dutch is an attack on the USA. Anyway it’s so neat to watch all of you and you family and friendships. 😷👍🏻🥰🇺🇸

I thought the photo was spikes and nails until I looked closer it was a gravel/rock pile 🤣🤣🤣.. I think the rope and trees are a good idea to stop them!!😀😀😀😀💕

You need a turtle crossing sign.

I can't imagine how much all that stone cost. If you sleeve the chain with PVC and yellow/black reflective caution tape, you'd be golden. I install parking garage and private community gates and that's what we use.

Drive looks beautiful..I love how the family comes out to help you from time to time 😊

Maybe you could do something like what Jason Crocker build by his gate. Love the road

Blackstone says that a crime against one member of a society is a crime against the entire society.

For what it's worth, my sister was driving when she hit a cable she did not see. Peeled the hood off the car and bent the a pillars in, smashed the windshield, etc. She was only going maybe 15 MPH. Hang reflectors off it. Maybe lengths of that orange plastic chain? People are litigious, and laws are... maybe not what you'd expect. My father in law used to say "do what the prudent man would do." At least it's defensible in court.

You’re making slow steady progress Dutch! It’s looking great! But maybe you should put it in a couple of the trail cams to see who is actually coming in just to see what they’re doing. Just a suggestion.

It's really starting to come together brother. I wish God's blessing on you and your family. You have really taught me a lot for when I move to South Carolina.

I just don't understand the thought process that says "yea I see a private property sign but I didnt think it was meant for me".. So aggravating. Dutch I am so sorry people are dis respecting your property... Be safe and be well..TFS

Love watching the teamwork! Great family you have. Reminds me of my Dad and I when we worked on our camps property. Stat safe, God Bless.

I'm with you, they mess up their grill, tough! Hopefully this will keep them out for the most part. God bless!

Tomorrow Ginseng’s season starts in TN. Warned my daughter to watch out for poachers. Hopefully we start our clearing/driveway next week? You inspire us. Happy Sunday and blessings upon you and yours.

I'm pleased the turtle carries my name..lol.

Thank you for the update on the off grid property ! Take care , stay safe and healthy at whatever you do next ! Doing well here in Kansas .

The driveway looks good , I didn't realize it was so long , I mean I've seen it before on video but the gravel gives it definition . Hi girls , Hi Brandi 🙋

It’s disgusting that you have to put up no Tressopassong sign. That is the way this Wicked world is. Dutch Keep. plugging away. We love you

You need a sign “Forget the dog, beware of the owner!”

Dutch I can’t believe how quickly y’all are getting everything done there. Keep up the work, love y’all’s videos.

Congratulations on getting your gravel in! One step closer. Two steps, actually; the cable across your new road is another. Love the ArmorLay ground fabric.

People who don’t respect other peoples property are people who do not respect anyone. They have a entitlement attitude! God Bless!

Driveway looks awesome! Love the little turtle! ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

Love seeing all you boys working together. Good luck.

Your family is just so much fun. Your girls are so beautiful. God has blessed you so much. Thanks for sharing your story. I really enjoy watching what your doing.

hello from scotland....brilliant...." ON THE ROAD AGAIN " xxx

You need to have Daniel talk to great plains Kubota and hook you up with a tractor.

Get a set of the cheap solar rope lights to wrap on the cable across the driveway. Make the cable visible in the dark. People have been sued for those cables because some trespasser rode an ATV or motorcycle into them.

Thank you, I love watching you and your family interact!!

That poor turtle. 😄

Happy Sunday, Dutch and family!! 😃👋🏻😃👋🏻😃👋🏻🦃🦃🦃😃👋🏻😃👋🏻

I’m glad you videoed the trucks driving on that tarp. I wanted to see how it held up.

Don't forget to put your camera's up Dutch,it maybe more then one person trespassing,looking so different great job...

Awesome that will make life a little easier

You better be buying a tractor. That's a lot of snow shoveling in the winter. Lol

holy heck, I was not expecting that 'tailgating' of the gravel to be that pleasing to watch...that driver/operator knows his shizz. Very cool!

Thank you for tying those fabric scraps on the wire... I have a neighbor who was driving a motorcycle along a dirt road that was being developed and didn't see the wire stretched across the road and about tore his head off but totally destroyed his vocal cords. Safety first.... even if they are being jerks. ;)

Greetings from SE Oklahoma! Can't tell how high cable is by vedio, but don't put it too high, they just lifted ours and drove under on a fourwheeler. We had signs and all. People are amazingly insensitive to put it nice. With the rain and driving over the gravel several times, you can pack it down. Such a hard, hard worker, & a great man. I enjoy your family. God bless, off grid in Oklahoma Mt.Momma

Road looks good

Wow. That is amazing. Y'all are rocking the off grid already!!!

Hey Dutch, people just don't care about anything any more its all about them. They do want they and when they want and to hell with everything else. You have to do whatever it takes to protect your property they're thinking I'll just sneak out there and they'll never know WRONG. Dutch just keep your guard up while your out there by yourself, I know your carrying but don't leave it in your truck people are crazy today. You may never know they may come out there to see what you are doing I don't want to sound paranoid but that's how people are today with that being said the road looking good it's coming along so whats next KID keep up the good work and see you in the next video🤔😉

Good evening everyone. Hope you’re having a good day 👋🏻😊💞

The gravel looks good! It's coming along nicely. 👍☝️👏

Dutch, and family, love watching yer stream from Ireland, god bless always 💖

Making progress, hope that keeps trespassers out. Your girls are hard workers.

Road looks good, the gravel laid nicely. Such good helpers you have Dutch. Kinda looks like you have a tough turtle watching also. Enjoyed the video

The driveway looks really nice! Hope cracked me up “I had more ticks” 🤣

Split a yellow pool noodle and put that on the cable along with sparkly tree garland. I saw someone do that. You could see it night and day. It would be hard to say they didn't see it and if they didn't they are blind and shouldn't be driving! Keep it Dutch, Dutch! :-)

Naturally that Turtles name should be “Tucky” for “ Ken Tucky” cause he “ KEN” tuck his head and he likes “Kentucky Fried Chicken”. 😆👌👍😉

I don't know if it's legal in OK but I'd be tempted to put up a sign that says "Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be prosecuted!

It's sad when people are so disrespectful of others property. Obviously their parents didn't teach them how to respect others. Sorry your having to deal with that kind of stuff Dutch. Love the new roadway you have there. Definitely a lot of work and more ahead. God bless you all!

Use the float feature of the loader. It will help eliminate bumps when back dragging and help keep the drive smoother. Nice work!

I love watching you work. You make it look so easy.

I’m loving your journey and this entire process! Sometimes I wish I was in your shoes!

Trespassers can be a problem for sure, just be careful with cables. Pvc slid on them or other high visibility items should be used. Cables are the hardest to see and injury can often happen to trespassers. Even though you are well within your rights to protecting your property and privacy, many landowners have had lawsuits solely based on the thought that human life is more important than inanimate land or property. Just food for thought. Be safe and free 🇺🇸

Always love your channel, content and beautiful family. I especially enjoy you and Kevin working together. You two have a blessed friendship! Keep up the good work. Sending love to your family too. It's always a please to watch your 3 beautiful girls and exceptional wife!!

Now that's what I'm talking about. Living so far in the woods.

The roadway in looks awesome.

I'd like to leave another comment I watched Hayden's channel awsome job at your tournament I wanted you to know I watched it 🤗🤗

That’s always nice when we can spread it for the customers. .looking good

Laughing at the ' witch's shirt!! Your girls are 👌

Now maybe the trespassers will keep out, if they try coming in hope they see the cable if not their vehicle is tore up! LOL 😆 🤣 😂

Should put a gate there to help keep the trolls out.

Thank you so much Dutch,all this is happening on my prop in Texas real soon.

Man I hope that cable keeps the disrespectful trespassers out. Roads coming along good.

Some trail cams will capture the perpetrator, one hung high for the person, one hung low for their license plate.

Almost every year in my area a snowmobiler goes blasting across a farmers posted property and hits a fence getting badly hurt and then sues the farmer. And many have WON!

Yup looks about exactly like what I did. Yes a no trespassing sign hanging from it. They cut down the tree and kept coming. Prepare to get pissed .. again.

You did the tree trimming just perfect! So proud of you!!!!
