Wyoming BDR in a Jeep Part 1 - Extreme Snow, Flat Tire & Recovery (First 4x4 Team)

We were the FIRST TEAM IN A 4X4 (with a trailer too) to complete the Wyoming Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR) - a 900-mile off-road adventure designed for adventure motorcycles. This is Part 1 of our journey from the Colorado border to Montana, and it immediately tested us with snow, mud, a flat tire, and multiple recovery situations. If you're planning the Wyoming BDR in a 4x4 or with a trailer, this is your reality check. WYOMING BDR OVERVIEW: Total Distance: 900+ miles off-road Designed For: Adventure motorcycles (we did it in a Jeep with trailer) Route: Colorado border to Montana border Duration: Multiple days (we split into 2 parts) Difficulty: Moderate to Difficult (conditions vary significantly) Best Season: Late June through September (we went early May - mistake) Vehicle Requirements: High clearance 4x4, recovery gear mandatory WHAT'S IN PART 1: This video covers the southern section starting near the Colorado border. We immediately hit challenging conditions: late-season snow, deep mud requiring recovery, water crossings with trailer, a flat tire from torn valve stem, steep rocky climbs, and massive mosquito swarms. This section proved the BDR is brutal in a full-size 4x4 with trailer. CHALLENGES WE FACED: Late-season snow on trail (early May was too early) Deep mud sections requiring winch and traction boards Flat tire - valve stem torn out on rocks Water crossings with trailer in tow Steep rocky climbs testing lockers Kennedy Peak side trail attempt Massive mosquito swarms (bring bug spray) Herd of cows blocking trail Zero cell service for extended periods TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Introduction: First 4x4 Team on Wyoming BDR 0:07 - Wild Horses on Trail 0:15 - Early Challenges: Rock, Water, Mud Preview 0:34 - Snow Conditions Assessment 0:42 - First Stuck Situation - Recovery 1:15 - Water Crossing with Trailer 2:30 - Flat Tire - Valve Stem Failure 4:45 - Tire Repair Process 6:20 - Continuing Through Mud 8:10 - Kennedy Peak Side Trail Attempt 10:30 - Steep Rocky Climb 12:45 - Cow Herd Encounter 14:20 - Mosquito Swarm Attack 16:00 - Second Recovery Situation 18:30 - End of Day 1 Camp Setup 20:15 - Lessons Learned Discussion 21:30 - Preview of Part 2 LESSONS LEARNED - CRITICAL FOR PLANNING: 1. *Timing Matters:* Early May was too early - snow and mud were major issues. Wait until late June or July for better conditions. 2. *Tire Pressure Management:* We ran lower pressures for traction but tore a valve stem. Bring spare valve stems and complete tire repair kit. 3. *Recovery Gear Essential:* We used traction boards, winch, and straps multiple times. Don't attempt without full recovery setup. 4. *Fuel Planning:* Remote sections require careful fuel management. We carried extra fuel in jerry cans. 5. *Trailer Adds Significant Difficulty:* Towing makes tight sections brutal. Many areas designed for motorcycles are challenging for full-size vehicles with trailers. VEHICLE SETUP FOR THIS TRIP: Jeep Wrangler JL 38-inch tires Front and rear lockers (used constantly) Winch (essential - used multiple times) Tribe Trailer with camping gear Recovery gear: traction boards, straps, shovel Spare tire and tire repair kit Extra fuel and water GMRS radios for communication WHAT IS A BDR (BACKCOUNTRY DISCOVERY ROUTE)? BDRs are long-distance off-road routes created by Backcountry Discovery Routes organization, designed primarily for adventure motorcycles. Routes connect existing roads, trails, and two-tracks to create epic multi-day adventures through remote backcountry. The Wyoming BDR is 900+ miles of off-pavement challenge. WHY 4X4 INSTEAD OF MOTORCYCLE? Most people ride BDRs on adventure motorcycles, but we wanted to prove it's possible in a full-size 4x4 while towing a camping trailer. This allows for more gear, more comfort, and a different type of adventure. We were the first team to complete the entire Wyoming BDR this way.
