Car Camping off the 395 | Inyo National Forest
On this adventure, I camped along the 395 on my way to Lake Tahoe to meet up some friends. I wanted to break up the trip in half and this was the perfect midway stopover. Plenty of space and was all by my lonesome. Just me, the trees and some good beer and food!
And apologies for the clipped audio! Still trying to figure out a solution for when it gets a tad bit windy.

Solo Car Camping in the California High Desert | Trona Pinnacles
zhlédnutí 2,7KPřed měsícem
Trona Pinnacles had been on my list for quite some time and I finally had the opportunity to take the trip during the Memorial Day weekend. Lemme tell you...the tufa spires are just as captivating in real life as they look in the pictures. Very surreal to have a place like this only 3 hours away from Los Angeles. Also, I hadn't been camping in the heat AND high winds in a while so please enjoy ...
Chill Car Camping in Southern California | East Flats Campground
zhlédnutí 14KPřed 2 měsíci
After fighting a bout of bronchitis the last few weeks, I'm finally back outside! Though initially, this trip didn't go as planned. The campsite I wanted to hit up had a road closure and then my main camera decided to crap out on me. But I just had to overcome, improvise and keep pushing! I ended up finding a spot that allows for dispersed camping near Jenks Lake. It was a great chance to test ...
Car Camping from Colorado to Sedona | Solo Road Trip

The last leg of the road trip started out in Colorado. I had originally planned to camp in Colorado but a change of plans extended my stay with my friends. On the way back towards home, I decided to check out the Great Sand Dunes. I am so glad that I did. Seeing the stark contrast between sand and snow was awe inspiring and a sight to behold. Though I couldn't stay long as I had a long trek tow...
Car Camping from Zion to Arches | Solo Road Trip

I've been wanting to go on a trip...somewhere far. To explore new lands, go hiking and of course car camping. To also test the CRV on a long distance journey. I got the opportunity to do just that in the form of a friend having a promotion ceremony out in Colorado. And that's where this journey began. I got to planning the first leg of the trip and decided to head first to Utah since I've never...
"Winter" Car Camping on a Southern California Beach | Thornhill Broome Campground @ Point Mugu SP

I needed to help one of my homies wrench on his rig up in Oxnard and so with that...another excuse to go camping! This time I wanted to do something I've never done before which was beach camping. I did some research and found out there was a campground at Point Mugu SP. I gotta tell you, there ain't nothing better than to wake up to the sounds of the ocean and the sand right at your doorstep. ...

Just a short little vid of a recent trip I did with wifey and close friends for the new years. It was our first time visiting Sequoia NP and dang we caught it just in time especially with all the snowfall. Going for such a short time did not do it justice and I cannot wait to go back!

Wifey and I were headed up to the Bay for a family wedding and thought it would be a great opportunity to do some car camping! Funny enough, this would be my first time camping in the North Bay even though I was born and raised in the area. Found a nice spot in Lagunitas at Samuel P. Taylor SP. It was a nice change of scenery and only wet my appetite to explore more of NorCal. Follow me on IG: ...
Unforgettable Solo Car Camping and Hiking Adventure Near Vegas | Valley of Fire SP

I had planned to attend the F1 Vegas GP and thought to myself, "Why not do some car camping while I'm out there?" So I did some research and found a spectacular camp spot within the Valley of Fire in Moapa Valley, Nevada. There's a particular energy when you enter the valley that you sense immediately. The views, vastness and geological structures are something that you just have to experience ...
Hike to a Tiny Waterfall then Cooking Breakfast | Millard Canyon Falls

So I had some leftover food from camping previously and didn't wanna waste it. So I told wifey: we're going on a hike then cooking up breakfast! We headed out to Millard Canyon to hike up to a well known tiny waterfall. Nice short hike and not too many folks on the trail. Soyrizo breakfast tacos were on the menu with some coffee made from BerryBird beans that we got back in Hawaii. Definitely w...
When camping doesn't go as planned...EXPLORE | Cougar Buttes

So I got too ambitious and thought I could find an open campsite at a pretty well established first come, first serve campground on a late Saturday afternoon in the Mojave Desert. And yup, that place was crackin'! But I didn't let that deter me from exploring and at least cooking up the dinner I had planned. I did a bit more driving and stumbled upon Cougar Buttes. Literally no one was around e...

The first video outside of California and guest starring my wife! We were in Hawaii celebrating our friends' wedding and had some free time to spare.

It did not disappoint! The views were on point and it was probably the quietest spot I've ca...

Good vids man! Just subscribed 👍🏼
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Thank Elijah. I deliver propane up to Big Bear and pass that place on way up. Going to check it out. Like the awning and window socks.
Now that's a very nice commute! It was my first time driving through 395 and the views were pretty awesome.
Hi Elijah, beautiful campground. Was it just a good as Blue Ridge? Met you there last year. Thanks for sharing the spot.
Hey Todd, hope all has been well with you! I'd say it's pretty nice but unlike Blue Ridge no amenities. Thanks for stopping by!
🔥🔥🔥 love the content, got a 1997 Rav4 and your build is really influencing my build lol
I love the first gen Rav4's. That was my other option before picking up the CRV. Thanks for watching!
What under the wheels for? Ty
They're levelers used to make the car level on uneven terrain: amzn.to/3Y5uCVJ
woah where was this parking spot at ? im looking for single car spots like this ?
This was at a dispersed camping spot on Owens River Road: www.campendium.com/owens-river-road. Plenty of spots to set up camp over there.
Another nice and simple camping trip. Love the fact you're using relatable equipment that the majority of people can buy and use. Was that a pesto dish you made for dinner because it looked good! Keep on adventuring bro🤜🤛
I appreciate it bro! Yep some green pesto, spicy kielbasa and red peppers with bow tie pasta is 🔥. I recommend it!
@@elijahdondada Definitely sounds good!!
You gotta do a walkaround! This build looks so sick
Oh yea I have it planned out but just need to film it. I appreciate it!
How are you liking those general tires? Also what do you use fot recording your videos?
These are my first set of ATs and I’m pretty impressed by them. Quiet and comfy on street but grippy on dirt/sand/snow. I drive a bit spirited and kinda surprised that they also corner well at speed. For recording, I mainly use a Sony A6300 and my GoPro Hero 11.
Salamat for sharing your Inyo National experienced. Keep adventuring and keep sharing. When was that and hows the weather it seems still cold. Salamat for sharing the coordinates. Saan ba ang susunod mo baka makasama ako dto lang ako sa Orange County.Thank you
This was in the beginning of June. Warm during the day but was actually pretty chilly at night. I’m still planning what the next trip is but hopefully during July 4th weekend. Salamat!
Camped at East Flats many a time, especially after it became difficult to get into the surrounding fee camp grounds. It's actually nicer, quieter in the flats. Used to hike around Jenks lake area also. Nice simple set up, thanks for the vid...good job.
Thanks for watching! Yea I was surprised how quiet it was out there which was nice. I will forsure be back there again one day.
Hey neighbor another great video there of your pitstop on your way to Tahoe. I wonder every time I see your vehicle when you're going to get out another relaxing video. Yeah I'm getting the itch to get back out there for another couple days. ✌️ Out Elijahdon
Hey neighbor I appreciate it! I try to go out whenever I get the chance to. Hopefully I’ll have another trip for July 4th weekend. And yea definitely get out there!
keeping it simple! unlike other overlanding/camping vlogs that only shows off their gadgets and rigs.
I appreciate it! I also love gear but I definitely like to keep it simple with only the essentials I need.
I know it’s a never ending struggle; but your setup is smooth. I just picked up that COSTCO box… love it. You’ve introduced me to some great spots ( but where is this one, I know Lytle Creek… is it dispersed, yellow post? Regardless, great great spot). Hopefully we’ll run across each other soon. That pasta looked FIRE. Don’t know why I thought this was Lytle. But INYO… ?
I’m trying to keep the setup as simple as possible with only the essentials I need. The Coho box was too good to pass up especially in the color way haha. This was a dispersed spot Owens River Road: www.campendium.com/owens-river-road. Very nice spot with plenty of space to spread out. Yea maybe I’ll see you outside one day!
rad video...PLINY THE ELDER 👍
Thanks! Can never go wrong with Pliny.
another banger. what coffee maker is that?
I appreciate it bro! It’s a GSI Coffee Rocket: amzn.to/4cENGhp
I like it content bro.. naturall 👍
Appreciate it bro!
Is there anywhere to fish nearby?
Check out Lake Kaweah which is on the way.
hey bro, youve never needed 4x4 where you go?
So far the AWD has been good for the roads I've been going on which are mostly washboard or fire trails.
The heavy sighing made me feel like you need a furry companion 💗🦮
Haha maybe one day!
I stumbled on to your video and instantly became a fan. Your video editing is top notch and it’s cool to see your camping setup and get some ideas from your video. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope you continue to have CZcams success!
I appreciate that a lot thank you! If you ever have any questions about camping gear or setup just let me know.
What did you do to cover your windows?
I made them using Reflectix: amzn.to/3xp6WR8 @NikkiDelventhal has a great tutorial on how to make your own: czcams.com/video/v7LTNJP5rpU/video.htmlsi=0Z1am_B6sKKn49xB
Great video but to 😮be right by the highway all that traffic noise.
Haha yea the noise was the only thing. But it does calm down a bit towards the night.
Could you link me the mattress you use? Great vids by the way, trying to get into same thing w my gen 1
I got this trifold mattress off of Amazon: amzn.to/45wm6Ri Definitely worth the purchase. Have fun with your build and let me know if you have any other questions!
What kind of hoodie is that???
Oversized hoodie from Uniqlo. I think they still sell them.
Kuys what is your tire set up? 🤙
I'm running General Grabbers 215/75r15 with Rota Grids. Pokes out just a little bit and no rub.
Really enjoyed your video! The gf and I camp out of my Passport. Going again this weekend. Will definitely be watching more of your channel.👍
Passports are pretty dope. Enjoy the outdoors and thanks for watching!
Thank you for correctly calling it car camping. So many "overlanders" on social don't realize they're just car camping. lol.
Hello guy, that's nice trip. When you change tires to 215 75 r15 you need to lift up specer?
I actually ran 215/75r15 no lift for a year without any issues so spacer isn't necessary. But it does make it look cooler haha.
great vibe! your dedication to getting all the shots is inspiring
I appreciate it thank you! Also, my homie just put me on to your IG and I love the content you put up!
@@elijahdondada whaaattt so cool! Just followed back! Looking forward to seeing your adventures 🤙🏾
New to your channel - this looks like such an amazing camp site! Added this to my Nevada camping trip (going to do Great Basin so this would be a perfect stopping point). Have you done Joshua Tree and/or Anza Borrego yet?
You will definitely enjoy it in Valley of Fire! Just be sure to prepare for the heat if you're going around this time. I have yet to visit Joshua Tree and Anza Borrego but they are on the list!
Hello! like the CRV1 with first gear, so that you can drive up a long climb on a bad dirt road on larger wheels? Is she downgraded? low gears?
Hey! I recently did a steep grade on a washboard trail in first gear and had no problems. But cannot say how it'll perform on a rockier type of trail.
Thanks for sharing your adventures. Is it hot already at Trona? Mabuhay!!!
It was about high 80's when I went which was hot enough for me haha. Salamat!
Great video! The music and shots after you made your burger are on point!! Looked like a peaceful and quiet camping spot.
Thanks bro! Yea it was pretty awesome except for the wind. I added in the music to mask the wind noise and it worked out lol.
@@elijahdondada it definitely worked out perfectly.
What are those poles you had to hold up that tarp where can I get those to make a makeshift canopy and where did you get that mattress
Got it all from Amazon: Poles: amzn.to/4c6uCbA Mattress: amzn.to/4cc8ZH1
what kind og griddle is that? I have that same stove and would be a perfect fit
I got these 10" grills that fit perfectly: amzn.to/3Kw3VRW
@@elijahdondada oh I meant the one where you cooked those eggs and chicken wings on, the black one with a grease drain
Excellent work. You are a great cinematographer👏👏👌
I try my best to make the shots interesting. Thanks so much!
Mayo cap is too Relatable haha. You had some really big shots in this one, did you change your camera? Right around the part where you had the day time moon in the frame. I’m sure that place looks wild in person. Also looked very hot until the sun dipped. Anyway thank you for sharing 😊
Yea mayo cap always gets me lol. Same camera but just used the lowest zoom on the lens and walked way further out to capture the shots. It was great because no one was around. You should definitely check it out one day but yup, beware of the heat especially during this time. Thanks for watching bro!
cool as shit
Yea the views were amazing!
