Overlanding to Mexico Movie: The Epic 1000 Mile Adventure
I got the crew together and finally planned an overlanding adventure to Baja California. We drive 1000 miles to get to the sandy beaches and set up camp to explore Mexico for our first time. We find epic campsites, secluded beaches and even a dead whale on the beach! This trip was absolutely epic and I can not wait to go back for another adventure.
This video is a re-release of a 5 part series I released last year. My editing style has slightly changed since this, but it's still fun to look back and watch this adventure.

Took a flat bottomed aluminum boat and a trolling motor to make sure I could get back against the current. Absolutely amazing place. 98-03 was in a 95 Ram 1500 4x4.

I’m not sure what you mean, this video is filmed at 24fps. It contains over 154,000 pictures. I hope that counts.

Then get kidnapped by the cartels

I travel with awareness, but not with fear. Fear will hold a lot of people back from experiencing a lot of things.

Went almost same route. All of us were X Army Rangers. Meant cartel. We back off behind a rock ridge. We ended up in a firefight with our families. Spent 500 rounds of ammo. We had night vision that saved us. We took down dozens. That were complete idiots. All our fire power saved our families! Hidden where border corrupt police could not find. We left Mexico with no problem man. They new we were bad ass! Do not go there again. Not worth it. You may not mine a firefight but not with your family. 🇺🇸🇺🇸😎 Fort Brag “Now and Forever”!

we have an FJ/Opus combo, we are planning a trip and like your content but the complete lack of location info, not even where you crossed the border makes it just eye candy/ camping porn.

Yup! I’m here to inspire, not to be a tour guide and show 10s of thousands of people my secret places. I think a big part of exploring, is exploring and not following someone else’s map. Places get ruined when shared online. Unless it’s a very popular trail that’s already well known, I’ll be very vague. But I am happy to share the border info. That was Mexicali. Next time we go over I’ll cover the crossing a bit more, but since we were first timers I didn’t want to act like an expert in the video.
