PACIFIC NORTHWEST : The 2014 JK-Experience - Elbe Hills [Part 3 of 4] a WAYALIFE Film
Our 4th day of the JK-Experience would start off with a trek to the west, over the Cascade Range, through the Mt. Rainier National Forest and down to a part of Washington that is famous for its deep ruts and menacing mud trenches - the Elbe Hills ORV Area. Named after a creek that runs through a part of it, the Busy Wild would be our trail for the day and it is without question the toughest of the 8 that make up the area. After finishing up the trail, we headed west to Silver Lake which is just west of the town of Eatonville and setup camp for the night.
We hope that you'll enjoy our presentation and that you'll come back for more.

loving all that green. 180 days of rain fall a year will do that for ya.
Most Jeeps I see don't have a scratch on them. This is insane! You guys use your machines beyond the limits!
LOL - no point in owning a Jeep if you don't use it :)
One of the best videos I've seen on youtube.
Thank you.
Nothing beats wheeling in this part of the world. Cheers, from Vancouver Island 💪
If only words could describe how much I enjoy and appreciate the videos you put together.
Nathan S Thank you so much, we're so glad that you enjoy our videos.
Glad to see people having fun with Jeep the way it should be. Great video
WOW! Beautiful people, beautiful passion!
Another Great Video WAYALIFE.. CAn't wait for Part4 and the 2015 east middle west JK experience
Dont you dare stop what you are doing eddie. Keep it up and keep it tight.
Chuan Cheng Wong LOL!! Well, this is almost done but, we will be sure to keep on making videos.
What an inspiration you guys are. You guys do an awesome job at defining what it means to have a good time while wheeling. Love the mix from great sights on the roads and the intense trails. Keep it up! I live for the day that I will get the opportunity to go around the states to hit some iconic trails.
Thats a real Jeeping spirit man. I know you are going to do it some day!
I love your guys's videos that's awesome I wish I could been there with you guys with my Jeep I love you guys videos always perfectly organized
Thank you, we really do appreciate it.
Can't get enough of my local scenery!
My favorite so far! It's 11:00pm here on the East coast, after watching part three I'm ready to take the Jeep out!
***** LOL!! Awesome.
That get's my Blood pumping! Love It! Keep up the great videos!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
This video reminds me of what we used to be able to do for trails. Brings back good memories. Government has closed a lot of the trails down here. Great video. Thanks.
Cause they are up to something and can't have people poking around or knowing how to get out of somewhere when the highways are shut down.
Another awesome vid! So much Thanks Eddie and Cindy
Nicolas Bulat So glad you liked it.
Nice job Eddie and Cindy! Another in a long line of great videos! Keep up the good work, it's greatly appreciated!
MtPocketsRacing Thank you so much, we really do appreciate it.
so happy to see a couple of 2drs mixed in there .!
i hate 4 doors and any of these new jeeps. people with them think their shit don't stink. im happy spending 4 grand on my xj. not gonna spend 60k on rubicon and destroy it. also not gonna buy a jeep and not do jeep things
@@donnywilderness Luckily I got my 4 door rubicon for a steal. But I still rock my jeep for jeep things! I just did a video and ended up smashing my door on a pole. I went.. Whoops. Better get a new line and kept going. Do miss my 2 door though. Made things a lot easier in tight areas.
very cool, and thanks to elbe hills i get to upgrade my steering stabilizer.
If only I could take my tj with yall the experiences yall share with us are the most wonderful
Keith Smith We do runs like this on WAYALIFE all the time and any Jeep is welcome.
When and where is yalls east coast run
Keith Smith Sorry, I don't know as we will not be attending any future JKX events
Awww man why not
I've seen pretty much all of your videos (well try to) but this one is by far my favorite! Always very professional and always showing amazing Jeeps and their owners doing what they do best! Definitely a bucket list goal of mine to join you guys on a JK-Experience adventure.
Thank you, we're so glad you enjoyed this video. Regarding the JK-Experience, we haven't attended any of their events since 2014.
AWESOME videos. keep it up and thank you for sharing !
Found your channel yesterday and been watching it like a TV series. Looking to buy my first Jeep hopefully this next summer. Out of all the videos. You and your wife's are hands down the best from editing, entertaining, informational, and just inspiring. I would say you both didn't need Jeep. Jeep needed you! Thanks again you got a fan. When I get mine I'm coming to visit and learn from you! Dennis Cottone
Wow, we're truly flattered that you would say as much. Thank you.
Great video! Highlight of the day! Thanks!
As always, another awesome adventure you all had! Thank you so much for sharing! Keep on with the adventures and stay safe on the trails and on the roads please! :)
Elbe is a great trail system! I have yet to attempt busy wild but it is on the list! Solid video series of the PNW!
that is incredible. Some time I'm headin up that way to enjoy some real offroad experience!! Great video guys. Keep em comin!!
It'a amazing what these BEASTS do!!!
Monster of a hole! Great stuff! Keep it coming!
kroca1000 Thank you
That was awesome, thanks for sharing your videos which are perfectly done. Keep on Jeeping!!!!!!!
Nathan Trahan Thank you. We're so glad you like our videos.
Love the vids always enjoys your uploads keep up the fun adventures and definitely keep sharing yalls experiences with the world
Jacob Hayden Thank you, we'll do our best to keep them coming.
Top quality as always!
Ricky McFarland Thank you
Yay I'm so excited!
This is one of my favorite of road jeep vids. nice job guys!
Incredible videos, incredible area. I have taken my Rhino up there a few times and I can't wait to go back, now I just need to save up for a Jeep... :)
chybagus Thank you
you guy's are my kind of wheelers lol.....
Great video, you're really making me wish I stayed at school in Washington instead of moving back to Texas.
Thing like this is why I cannot leave washington! However, I do have my rig and am going to be exploring all through out the country on my channel! Any good wheeling or anything in Texas?
@@4WDTrek There are a few parks but as far as I know there isn't much. I would say your best luck would be in the Big Bend area. There are also some off-road parks in the central Texas area that my parents have gone to in their jeep with their friends. Property in Texas isn't open land like how it is in the PNW, almost all land is privately owned except for west Texas.
@@fermin94 oh dang! Thats good to know in case I head out that way!
AWESOME, Simply AWESOME!!!
Great adventure again guys, look forward to the last video and more
LtHawk77 Thank you.
so much fun here !!
lets get back in some rocks!! once again, great vid eddie. keep them coming.
Awesome videos. Slowly digging through your archives and enjoying every minute!
I am doing the exact same! I Love watching old videos and comparing to the stuff I film more recent. Crazy seeing the transformation of the terrain over the years!
Great video reminds me of the woods in southern b.c. I miss rock crawling there
Just more difficult🤣👍
Elbe is fun I've spent many of my days up there in my Willys. I don't know if I would've taken a JK on the Busy Wild though. They are just too big for the obstacles really. I would've taken them to the log run and the huge hill climb right after the sunrise to the left over there. That would've been some great footage of the jeeps flying up that hill! We always take the race Jeeps and see how fast we can do it haha. And there's always the rock pit at the very top you could've gotten some good shots of. Anyways I hope you guys enjoyed what you got to see of Elbe there is much more too it than just that for sure! That's where I really got to fall in love with Jeeps and wheelin so it's a sacred place to me for sure.
1859ddd With the exception of the deep mud pit, everyone ran the trail just fine. Sure, a few needed to winch but otherwise, most of our big long JK's made it through without any issues what so ever. Sure wish we could have spent more time playing there but, we had to set up camp.
Yeah I'm sure it was fun none the less ha. I love your videos! Thank you for the highlights of Washington state! I really enjoyed the Naches video too I'm glad you guys got to see funny rocks I love that place! Look forward to your next video for sure! Keep up the good work! :D
I miss taking my First gen Toyota our there, always beautiful none the less now I’ve got my 2 door xj to take back to Elbe 🤪😂
Looks like a lot of fun! Nice vid
Love these trials I live here know them very well
cool video it was great can't wait for part 4 keep up the good work , the fun and keep on jeeping
kenny dodds Thank you
Awesome video! That trail was so much fun!
Tony Inglima That really was a ton of fun and we're so glad that you could have been there with us to enjoy it
Still love these videos!
epic good times grate work for sher wus alot of fun to watch keep up the good work!!
Thank you
I started watching your vids about a week ago, now all i can think about doing is watching you guys do american things taking on crazy trails. I was planning on getting a jeep but needless to say you have sold me on the Jeep life. Also, you have the best editing skills and well planned narration i have seen in any video in a long time! great stuff!! keep it up
+sclouisvillefan Thank you so much. We're flattered and humbled.
This is so awesome!!! I can't wait to get out there filming this weekend. I haven't been to Elbe yet but I am stoked to check it out. This has inspired me even more to get out there! Excited to compare how much the terrain changes year to year!
Really wish I had not watched this before leaving for work. Now I don't want to go, haha. Great video.
I know the feeling!! Now I have to get out there! Making a run this weekend to film a bunch of the trails for a comparison vs what the terrain looks like now compared to then!
Very cool! Looked similar to Redbird from a couple years back.
What a great video man !! thanks for sharing ! love the JK Ute wish they would bring them out over here in Oz
I continue to Jeep vicariously through you guys since I had to sell my 2Dr JK du to changes in work and and an addition to the family. :( Hopefully, a JKU Rubi in the summer is in the cards…. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to part 4! Thanks Eddie and Cindy!!
Iain Richardson I'm sorry to hear you had to sell your Jeep and hope you'll be able to get that new 4 door sooner than later.
I had to sell off my 2 door, but because I made a deal with my lady to get a 4 door instead for when kids come along. I absolutely love the 4 door and highly recommend it!
Awesome video!!
LOL, You guys crack me up! "taking it up the rear" LOL
This has to be one of the toughest JKX's I have seen. The NW does not fool around. I would have to take a whole bunch of drive arounds.
This is my backyard so to speak. And all my life of being up in Elbe, it is not for the timid. You can easily spend a day in there stuck between broken rigs. Or if you are driving a Jeep, becoming 1 of the broken rigs. Anymore Busy Wild is where super modified runs more than anyone else because they have torn it up to the point that no stock or semi modified body lifted rig can get through it w/out inflicting insane body damage.
The big dogs with the super chargers are so sick. Just tap the throttle and BAM!!🇺🇸
Super chargers are a complete waste of money and there aren't any in this video. What you're seeing is V8's :)
Wayalife oh yeah even better ! What v8 do they use a Hemi?
@@theaztecsun Most are running HEMI's but we have a 6.2L LS under our hood :)
@@wayalife nice! Is that comparable in cost compared to a super charger?
LOL - considering most of the people I've known to run supercharger ultimately ends up getting a V8, I'd say the cost of just getting a V8 to begin with will save you in the long run. Believe what you want but in my experience, superchargers deliver very little real power and all at the wrong time. They are horrible in places like Moab really are a waste of money. Of course, that's just my opinion.
Love the videos. Keep em coming
Josh Smith Thank you
I shoot some gopro stuff for my club but I'm nowhere near the editing level yall are on. Yall always have awesome trips. Each series gets added to our list of places we wanna visit abs wheel!
Great video as always! That was some gnarly mud, we don't get anything like that out west here!
Will F LOL!! You just need to head up to the "north" west. ;)
It would brbso cool tonbe part of something like that one of these days. Looks like a damn good time.
RC Crawler Workbench It really was a great time.
Jeep family!
Great video, you guys do a really good job!
Eric Brown Thank you, we really appreciate it.
Waiting to get my jeep & hopefully i'll be out there joining you guys this summer!!
You ever end up getting that jeep?? I'm always going out and always looking for new people to roll with and film with!
Nice footage.....
Keep on Rocking dudes! :)
Sweet video....I've used the "Shattered Worlds" song In one of my videos and love the song....sweet video, can't wait for more
Great vid Cindy, hope one day to be with you. Cheers from Italy Sirio
Man these videos are awesome! Let me know when and if you will ever do a trip out to Ontario Canada, love to wheel with you guys!

Glad to hear you enjoy our videos
Oh man i absolutely love them !! I am currently building a scaled down #Projectjk off a axial SCX10 jeep rubicon, complete with the project JK door decals & a scale wayalif licence plate tag that i use in my scale videos, it aswell is a "wayalife" when you cant afford the real thing, this is the next best thing. keep up the great work guys, hopefully one day i can join you out on the trails
What a top video. That mudhole is insane......Getting hung up on 40"+ tyres is serious shit.
69rollarok Thank you
Greetings from Seattle from a some Elbe regulars! Great video Eddie and Cindy and we just love the whole series.
Jim Richards Thank you. You guys have some badass trails and we loved wheeling on them
@@wayalife Our motto is, it is not wheeling until we make our own trail. ;) Most of that was not even single tracks in the beginning. You got the broken paths. ;)
3:17 that stump climb though.. :D
Back when I used to goto Elbe we were all in full time wheelers (Toyota’s made a lot of elbes trails/very narrow trucks)
Another awesome video! You guys should come to the St. Louis area and hit up some of our parks with us!
What parks do you have out there??? I do filming on my channel and am going to start branching out of the PNW a bit and am always looking for trips to plan!
you guys awesome!!!!! I like every vid you upload!! amazing
Zhiyuan Li Thank you, we really appreciate it.
I bet the car wash loved you guys !
They are used to it. We got people from all over the world coming here to do battle with the infamous Busy Wild. lol
The conversation went to an alltogether new direction😁😁😁
Can't wait to see you on the east coast! Anyone coming to Jeep Beach Daytona?
Looks like a major fun area. Even though I live 45 minutes from there..... I haven't been yet.... need a new toy first...JT this summer... you guys need to come back!!!!
A lot of fun out there for sure. Be nice to get back out there.
You should see it when it rains!
Jordan Newport Oh, we know it gets a lot worse... or, should I say better ;)
Awesome vid! :)
MetalHayd Thanks
I live in Kennewick and your in my outback!
Seems like a lot of carnage this year!
Garrett Daniels I think we just tried a lot harder ;)
Thanx guys for such a great video. Know the area very well. I did a little painting on the building of your staging area. I have an old YJ and avoided the Busy Bee trail. I did love the Gotcha Trail. Got stuck well on the Swamp Trail, 4 winch points to get out. I am checking out your other videos. Did you run the Evans Creek Park? That trail cost me a side window. The guy that followed me, cost him an exhaust system and side mirror. Happy wheeling.
Good video
Nice job man
budgetwheeler4x4 Thank you
I love the content you put on this channel. I have watched almost all of your videos. And i just hate how fast that 16 minutes flies bye. But keep uploading cause im here waiting and watching. Ready for next sundays video😃
ian matteson LOL!! Thank you, we're so glad that you like our videos.
Big wow..
Nice video.
Thank you
What song starts around 9:00 and awesome video as always :)
Cool geep
nice to see you guys tackle some ruts! Great vid as always! I'd like to know what winch that dude was using lol
I know right?? That winch was awesome!
3:23 Brake Lock Differential sighting!!
I would luv 2 ride with these guys but I would be showing up in my xj
