    I am a bit slow today. Only the seventh viewer…. Cool Dutch oven stuff. That is an awesome way to cook when you have several people to feed. Scouts use them all the time.

    Man Dutch oven is magic for camping food. Put coals over and under in a hole and your dinner cooks itself. Boy Scout memories….

      Okay you guys are killing me with the dutch oven comments... Time to go shopping for a dutch oven!!! LOL. Thanks for watching!

      @@dustyroaddestinationslodge makes great ones. Cowboy Kent Rollins channel has lots of Dutch oven cooking videos on it. You can basically make anything from main dishes to biscuits to desserts in one. Durable versatile and most of all fun!

    What a beautiful country you have! England is pretty, but the United States is majestic! I will come and visit one day! PS: by the way, that is technically a Dutch oven, but… being cast iron and three legged, I believe it is closer to what we South Africans call potjie. Potjie is pronounced poy~kee which is Afrikaans (a derivative of Dutch) literally means little pot. I must give you some amazing slow cook South African potjie recipes - mind blowin’ food!

      thanks @ideologieUK! The recent fire up in the area of the look out - on the map the fire stopped right at the lookout tower - so hopefully it wasn't damaged. The fires seem to be bad again this year. Hope you're doing well

    Right, I forget about that Bald Mountain. I'm used to people referencing the Bald Mountain near Shaver. Your friend is right about that fire wiping out a massive portion of land up near Ponderosa. Castle fire I believe it was called. Went from that ridge line to just outside Camp Nelson, nearly destroying all the cabins in Cedar Slope. Fortunately, some people are finally starting to rebuild.

    • @dustyroaddestinations
      @dustyroaddestinations  Před měsĂ­cem +1

      Yeah I want to head out that way since it’s been years since I was there. Most of my early videos were in that area. I’m just not sure I’m ready to see my old favorite spots destroyed. I’m not sure if I can even get to that area from the antelope valley/lake Isabella side of the mountain. Glad to hear people are starting to be able to rebuild out there!

    • @MockZaylin
      @MockZaylin Před měsĂ­cem +1

      You should be able to. It has been a few months since I came up the hill from California Hot Springs side, but as far as I know the road is open. I don't think they've started any of the road repairs on that southern end as they have been focusing more on the 190 side as it was completely impassible after that hard rain. There will be some rough sections on the M-50, and M-90 with a short section of single lane, again, assuming they haven't done any repair work yet.

    • @dustyroaddestinations
      @dustyroaddestinations  Před měsĂ­cem +1

      Oh right - I forgot about the rain damage... This video was filmed I think around December of last year - I'll have to call the ranger station to see if the route is open past Johnsondale bridge. I'm hoping to be able to get out this coming weekend. You have any adventures/destinations planned???

    • @MockZaylin
      @MockZaylin Před měsĂ­cem +1

      Just a family trip at the end of the month up in the Sequoia National Park area, including running the Buck Rock Jeep trail again. Anything else is usually last minute and usually to my family's property above Camp Nelson.

      Sounds like a great trip to look forward too! You should post a video of it? Or maybe instagram pictures???
