Short video journal of my trip last weekend to the Bronco Stampede in TN. I put a lot of miles on the Bronco in the 2 days I was there. I had an amazing time exploring the area and seeing all the beautiful scenery. It was awesome, seen some bears, white water rafting and some of the best mountain landscapes I’ve ever seen. Buzzard Roost was so green and thick I couldn’t see the views but will definitely go back in the fall if I can. If you never been to the Smokey Mountains I highly recommend the trip you will not be disappointed.

Take an adventure, be spontaneous, get out and explore, your Bronco will lead the way to unforgettable experiences.

It is the Smoky Mountains not Smokey Mountains. Smokey is the 🐻.

Just finished watching. Really nice footage. With you being in the KY, have you ever taken the drone and filmed the arch formations in RRG?

I’ve done a lot of video on the trails at the gorge but never flew the arches. You need to take a ski lift up the hill to get to them and I try to fly away from people as best as it can. It’s usually pretty busy up there around the arches. I do have 100gram fpv drones I use to fly around indoors and around people but I needs to be almost no wind because they are so lightweight. Would be really cool to get some fpv freestyle video of them.

Here’s the one I was flying through the stream in the video and at the end if you watched the bonus drone footage.

Dang that is small (TWSS). I was more so referring to the arch formations throughout the RRG such as Gray's Arch, Double Arch, Sky Bridge, etc. not so much the official Natural Bridge state park.

Still really great areas both the Smokies and the RRG.

I'm sure you are aware of the Central Kentucky Bronco Owners group. They have frequent rides on the DBBB.

Buzzard Roost was so green and thick I couldn’t see the views but will definitely go back in the fall if I can.

I'll check out your vid! Thanks

Is Hurricane now graded?

Awesome. Looks like a good channel to watch. I need more Bronco Offroad content in my youtube feed! I get too many Jeeps and Tacos presently.

I am curious too. I heard it has been graded for the majority of it. I am supposed to run it next week seems like I waited a bit to long.

I also read it had been graded even a guy with pickup truck full hound dogs at the end of the trail when I was airing up asked me about it as well. I never seen it in person before it was so called graded. But my opinion if it was it was a light grading because it didn’t look like the earth was that disturbed that much to me. The whole trail was really easy. All those YouTube videos you see where someone has a gnarly looking thumbnail its all camera angles because there’s nothing there that’s tuff. It’s just a scenic Trail that’s very loud because all you hear is the stream running over rocks almost every time you come to a stop. I’d rather run it then cades cove but honestly it’s a little over rated I thought. Also Buzzard roost is 100% gravel road. That road would be a good one in the fall or spring.

I was told some of our brothers and sisters off roaders tore it up in places making it "more fun" but it just screwed the residents who have to use it to get back and forth.

I can totally see that. I was surprised how many little homes were back there. Beautiful area. The hound dog guy told me all the homes were land locked.
