- We traveled to Utah to watch the annular eclipse on October 14th. While there, we took a week long camping and overlanding trip through southern Utah, taking our son to some new national parks.
Join us, @JustinBMcBride, @JevenDovey, Andres, and Danny, as we experience Utah.

Haven't seen that many RV/campers in the desert since the movie Independence Day.
the new truck, the new setup, the new kid, all of it is great. You're still climbing, keep it up!
Dude you make the best videos
Thanks!
Beautiful video as always. This seems like a great trip. Love seeing your son smile when you take him out on a hike.
Little man grows fast to a propper offroader! nice trip, thanks for sharing from the other side of the world
He is growing really fast!
I love your photos especially with the Drone beautiful up there I love the photos of Milky Way and the Stars my favorite really nice to see everybody out enjoying themselves such a beautiful area
What a great idea about renting the E Bikes. Thanks for sharing. cheers
you have the best blend between talk an photography.
you definitely an excellent photographer!
We camped exactly there at your spot above Swing Arm City. Absolutely breathtaking views. Your cinematography captures the beauty of the area. Nice work!
Your baby is so absolutely adorable and the happiest baby ever: you are terrific parents and it shows in your baby’s happiness
Wow you’re videos just get better and better. Thanks so much for sharing such wonderful content for those of us who can’t get out as much. I at least got to LBL this weekend with friends and had a great time. Keep up the great work 🙏🏻
That’s a fun area!
Excellent video footage and the music is perfectly paired to set the mood and tell a story. Hank's does have amazing burgers and the shakes, to die for! Your little boy seems to love being outdoors, always smiling. So glad y'all are able to enjoy this way of travel as a family. Take care.
You lucked out. We were in southern Oregon desert and just as the eclipse was nearly complete the clouds came over. We did take time to do some exploring afterwards and was able to see three herds of wild horses.
Rob. The quality and content of your videos is just constantly improving and so over the top! The Timelapse’s and drone footage are 💯🥰😍🙌 🔥!
Pleasant creek is always one of my favorite trails to do. Valley of the gods, the goosenecks, Moki Dugway, muley point, factory butte, devils backbone etc I LOVE everyone of those places! You’re already making us plan some next spring trips again. Thanks for the spectacular content. Some of your scenery chokes me up, it’s so beautiful. ,
That's great to hear! I hope you plan a great trip!
Spectacular scenery, great video and the time lapse night sky is incredible
YAY‼️the happiest boy .✅️👍
He is! Of course I didn't record his two meltdowns though 😂
@RevereOverland expected.. but truly happy‼️
And he makes me happy seeing him .
Great cinema - great area!
We also tried accessing Hell's Backbone Road several years in early April. Of course it was closed just after the ranch near highway 12.
Thanks!
I was in Valley of the Gods at the time.. Considering the number of people in the valley, traffic was not that bad at all.. would've loved to have run into you and friends..
That’s good to know! The interstate was stop start when we were in KY for the last eclipse.
Cinematography is AWESOME! Great adventure, and thanks for sharing.
How this channel doesn't have 100K subscribers ir crazy...
Annular solar eclipse is such a different experience to a total solar eclipse. There is still so much light abound despite the Sun almost blocked. And the "ring of fire" looks cool. In April this year (2023), we experienced in Australia (at Ningaloo) a total solar eclipse. Like you mentioned, it got cold quickly, but got much darker, and while we didn't get a "ring of fire" we got a breathtaking view of the Sun's corona, and with very powerful telescopes can even see some solar flares. Regarding your stuck air valve, try positioning your tyre w/the valve on top. That way when you air up/down the beads are at the opposite end (ie. bottom). Another episode with great use of drone footage to enhance the storytelling.👍
We had a total eclipse here in 2017 which was awesome. There's another early next year that I'm making plans to view!
I tried having the valve at the top the last time and somehow it still got jammed. I don't really understand how, but I think it's something to do with the non-OEM valve that's on that tire.
Maybe, you make sure the valve stem is at the top of the wheel before airing down so that the balance beads don't get stuck in the valve core
This was a great video. I was just down in Valley of the Gods a month ago. Alot less crowded! And Sego...so much has fallen there. I remember visiting 20 years ago and there were several more buildings standing.
i wish we wanted to fight the crowed and go to southern utah for the eclipse but we went to delta instead and it was awesome :)
That’s good! I’m sure the eclipse is just as good anywhere, but southern Utah is worth visiting all year round anyway!
so very true especially that time of the year so much nicer without the heat :) love the content keep it up@@RevereOverland
I totally agree with you on the subject of portable fire pits! I live at the foot of the High Sierra Mountains, there are hundreds of miles of overland trails up there but no camp first are allowed anywhere in those mountains! I don’t want to carry a fire pit or a propane tank. I don’t want to carry fire wood or an axe or saw, i just don’t need a fire even if where I’m going it is legal to have a fire! Im 77 years old and camp fires are not worth the hassle anymore!
I had planned to be there for the eclipse as well, but having seen this video, I am glad I went to Texas instead. Too bad too, that spot on Muley Point is great.
I was there the week prior. It was getting crazy. I stayed at Muley Point then went on to Capitol Reef for the eclipse.
Excited to watch this tonight. We had 15 rigs in cathedral valley and the grand staircase. What an epic show!
Dang! That was probably a great area to head to too.
What a video, we must have passed each other at some point. We were headed the other direction. Glad we didn’t go to valley of the gods! We had an amazing campsite in cathedral valley on blm, I was super nervous about finding camp for 15 rigs the night of the eclipse, but found it nearly abandoned. Luckily there was a gatekeeper wash that kept the vans out of our spot. Many of the spots you showed are already on my list of possible sites to camp. We’ll be back soon to explore them in more detail. Hole in the rock road was BRUTAL with washboards. Our trail popped out south of escalate on that oof. Other than that it was quiet up from page till then.
I worked for a trucking company we used the balance beads in the big trucks was ok but put them in my wife’s jeep didn’t work very good as long as you don’t accelerate fast you’re ok but if you have to speed up quickly they all stay in one spot and really throw it out of balance had to vacuum them out would not recommend them for automotive use
I was in the Valley of the Gods for the ring of fire. So many people there. We camped in Blanding just a few miles to the north the night before.
It was packed, but definitely a great spot for viewing it!
@@RevereOverland Thank you for the wonderful video. We had three vehicles and the day was amazing. The video brings back great memories. Thanks again.
Just started watching your videos! Love them!! I run balance beads in my jeep rims/tires. You may be aware, but they have special valve stems for those running balance beads. They stop the beads from coming up into the core causing issues like you were having.
I saw you and Justin coming down on Moki Dugway after the eclipse.. lots of people in the area.
It was so crowded!
Really enjoyed this one and especially the combo of drone+ASMR with small fact checks of American culture 🇺🇸🤠✔️ reminds me of the movie🏞️
Thanks for the video. Keep up the great work.😎👍
You got Moki Dugway and no wind? Blessed. Also, I'm enjoying seeing the journey with the Little. Carry on.
We got very lucky!
Really cool video Rob!
Thank you!
Amazing video
Thanks!
36:21 you got that night photography on lock
You can get valve stems made for tires with beads. Mine came with the beads
I ordered some! Thanks!
You should be using a Counteract Filtered Tire Valve Core with balance beads
Thank you!! I've ordered a set.
I camped near that overlook on Oct 22. I must have just missed you and your gang.
We were there the week before! Hopefully you didn't have someone set up their cameras right in the prime spot for a couple of hours 😂
Nobody stepped into my composition but we had a loud group partying at night which took away from the experience a bit. You may have seen Michael Shainblum's video from a few weeks ago shot in the Hanksville Badlands area. Pretty cool too...
BTW, I really enjoy your videos and have learned quite a bit...
Really great video, keep up the good work……. Jeff
Epic video!!
There are valve cores that have filters built onto them for specifically that purpose Rob. If you can't source them easily send me an address and I'll send you some. Look specifically for a dealer for "Equal", they will have them.
Thanks! I had some recommended and ordered a set!
@@RevereOverlandthere are essentially 2 styles of small bore valve core., short and long you have short. In most cases they are interchangeable, but the long style does require a longer free bore below the core. So just make sure that the long core does not bind up or stick in your valve stem (install one and try it)
That's good to know!
I'm always looking for places I can go with my Hard side Truck camper. My truck is lifted and my camper has only a 6 inch overhang off the rear. Watching your videos I get the impression much of this terrain can be done in my set up. Height clearance issues are always the concern for my set up.
Amazing video Rob! Maybe make sure the valve stem is at 12 o clock or the top of the tire? Maybe gravity can help.
Strangely it doesn't help. I think there's something about the non-OEM valve that I have on that wheel that collects the beads.
Another wonderful video! Thanks for sharing. Your little guy seems to really love the outdoors. That's so great.
Thank you! He really does love it out camping.
It was so great to hang out with you and your family! Your kid is a delight to see in person!
I'm glad you could make it out to join us!
We left that area on Thursday before the eclipse.
I bet some people were starting to show up to claim the best spots! Did you still get to see it?
@@RevereOverland we did not. I am not a crowd person, sounds like you guys are not either but made the best of it. Thanks for sharing the video of the eclipse. Good to see your whole family enjoy it. Great content as always, thanks again for sharing.
Best photography to date. Loved those time lapses of the sky especially. What camera and lens did you use? Beautiful! really! Great job. Makes me want to head to Utah again.
Thanks! The time lapses were on my A7III with the Sony 20mm f1.8.
I love your camera work/cinematography. Question: Having the benefit of the knowledge and experience you have (and time/distance to get there were not issue) If you were to pick a destination out west to overland and explore for a week where would it be and why (Idaho, Colorado, Utah, california, washington, ect)? The trip would more than likely be mid September if that would factor into your decision.
That’s a really tough choice. Lol.
For mid September I’d have a tough choice between Utah and Colorado. Utah is usually my preference, but it’s great pretty much all year. Colorado is incredible in the fall though. Just be ready for cold nights in Colorado in September!
o also the soil you where talking about is call cryptobiotic soil
That’s what it is! Thank you!
... and you all left tire tracks across the crust? Cardinal rules in canyon country are 1) don't create a new campsite, as your group appears to have done; 2) never drive or even walk on that crust, a living organism that takes decades to recover. You should correct your video to point these rules out, because many will assume that's the right way to do it, resulting in area closures.
@@RevereOverland no worries :)
@@bywayz are you talking about where we camped? That was a well-worn track. You really think I'd make a point not to walk on it, but be ok with driving on it?
@@RevereOverland from what i could tell you did everything right driving on a already traveled tracks and parking and walking on rocks no sure what he's talking about ether
Great video and good shots! Hoping the trails stay open in Utah next year to get out there and explore. Despite the battle with BLM trying to shut some of them down.
It's mostly the Moab trails being shut down, but I heard yesterday that the BlueRibbon Coalition got a 45 delay on the closures.
This episode was excellent!
Thanks!
I’m surprised you haven’t moved Westward
Get a solo stove with a deflector. Use sawdust bricks. You’ll be happy.
У тебя хорошо получается, продолжай в том же духе=)
How well does the camp light on the stand hold up in the wind? Looks like it would be doomed when a wind gust blew it over.
It takes a good gust to blow it over with the stand, but they also have a ground stake you can use. I only ever use the stand, and have had it blow over maybe twice in several years.
Cool video. Where would one find the maps to these cool places.

Rob thank you very much for the videos you have some of the best out there
great episode
Well done
April 8, 2024 - Total Solar Eclipse. It will be AMAZING! Start planning NOW if you haven't already!
Already on the calendar, but the location is TBD!
I really enjoyed the video. The scenery is beautiful but I love to see the little one so happy in the outdoors.
I see a few places from time to time in your videos that I’ve been to and it brings back wonderful memories for me. Thank you for that. 😎
Your drone videography is the best. Thanks Rob
Great video Rob! Love your content and narration. Great kid too! What a mellow little dude.
Bear bag 🐻🧳 Nice!
Yeah I wasn't even planning on using them on this trip, but it worked out well!
What is the technical rating for these trails? I have a ram 1500 stock and was wondering could I make it?
Great video! Sad i missed the eclipse. Did you have to get a permit to fly in the bears ears and glen canyon nat. Rec and monuments? Beauty footage
The only place drone permits are required in Utah is Utah state parks. Other than that, you’re either allowed to or you aren’t. Glen Canyon NRA does not allow drones, but we weren’t in the NRA. Bear Ears is all BLM and national forest, so with the exception of the Dark Canyon Wilderness, drones are allowed.
Thanks!!
I Always Put The Valve Core in My Mouth & Make it Wet & Slick & NEVER EVER Have A Valve core issue
Great shots, what drone do you guys use?
It’s a Mavic 3 Pro
After the journey how did you fix the tyre problem?
Rob... What do you use to record the radio chatter?
It’s the Icom ID52A
any plans to make a video about the trails that have closed in Moab? Ive been trying to spread the word and keep people informed, but I am a pretty small channel and there is only so many people I can reach.
No video plans, but I've been sharing stuff on Instagram and donated to BRC's legal fund.
The guy that ruined the time lapse is a d bag. He does not look like he's a beginner photographer and I know he saw your gear pointing in that direction
For sure. He had two cameras set up - one right in front of Justin’s time lapse, and the other out on the spit of land. I don’t really care about him coming through camp to set up on the end, but he ruined absolutely everyone’s shot by camping out on that spit for the entire sunrise. It also meant no one else could go out there for a picture of themselves!
Wicked hat Andres!!
Just curious with all the trips you have had I wonder if you have had any issues with your Tundra? Of course I see people complaining on the forums about blown motors etc.
57k miles with no engine issues. I did have a piece of trim fall off, but that’s all.
Good to know! Thank you! I have a 23’ and just has been on my mind.
Your Drone footage is great as usual.
I love Valley of the Gods! Great place to camp and be away from almost anyone.
How do you record your radio traffic to add it to the video?
I use a Icom ID52a radio to record to an SD card
Would you share any of these locations?
The entire route is shared on Patreon
Fire pit is a rip off 😂 that's crazy
2:36 👀👀👀👀
We also camped on Cedar Mesa for the eclipse, probably not far from you. A concern is that the video appears to show that this group drove on the fragile cryptobiotic crust on the mesa, breaking a cardindinal rule of canyon country travel. Also, the video makes it appear the group made a new campsite on the mesa where none of any consequence previously existed. If correct, both are behaviors that are destructive and lead to public land closures. Please do not do the same.
There was a well worn track leading to the rock we camped on.
Very disappointing writing. Was expecting a step-above in terms of quality. Typical drone shots to create an impressive video, but the narration was very dull, indeed. Beautiful countryside, though!
I look forward to your masterpiece
I've noticed that over the last few videos you've made (preceeding this one), you've lost a lot of your English accent and you're sounding more & more american
Bad for the dirt to step on it? 🤣
Yes, very much so. Stepping on it destroys the biological crust that’s holding it together, which then allows the next rain storm to wash it away. It takes up to 15 years for the biological crust to form.
How do you learn these things? Is there a guidebook specifically for overlanders that calls out where to go and what to look out for? @@RevereOverland
I just learned that from visiting the national park visitor centers as a kid
I am making no accusation toward any overland trekking company or group, but I know no one wants to unnowingly to drive into a contaminated area and set up camp. I am making absolutely no comment about any overland, but military are somehow responsible however I see too many youtubes like love canal where innocent looking places have not been places to be. There bunch of irresponsible military and big corporations have made bad news of our beautiful lands and the neighborhoods.
Economic protection agency can be good and made better. I know we need that kind of protection.
Before I would go in any area controlled by the US government portrayal travel or other fun things I would want to know if the area was clear of all types of radioactive and poisonous contamination. I could see anyone traveling the back roads for fun could easily run into some highly toxic areas that have not been marked yet or may never will be marked. I haven't seen too many youtubes of out of the way places big terribly contaminated and horribly dangerous to anybody hiking or driving through. Back country so enjoyed by all kinds ohh overlanders could easily be in contaminated areas that no one knows about yet.
Military and commercial companies have you used many out of the way places in America--some like could be next door to you like love canal..... Announcing dangerously contaminated areas seems to not be in the purview of the military or big corporations. These thoughtless people have used remote areas and populated areas with equal abandonedment. Now I see that the GOP and maybe Donald Trump want to get rid of the Environmental Protection Agency..... Can anyone in the right mind be thinking along those lines?
I get what it's all about...but watching someone vlog in the background, waving his arms around holding a camera and talking out loud to himself in the middle of the desert makes it obvious how ridiculous vlogging indeed is LOL.
Haha. I feel really self conscious when I do it.
(I'm going to pre-qualify this, Matthew: this is a snarky reply to your comment) I get what it’s all about… but people, stumbling on content that they watch for a few minutes, deciding they don’t care for it or thinking that it’s stupid or even that it’s ridiculous, all while having 114 MILLION other CZcams channels they can watch instead, yet thinking they’re entitled to share their negative and insulting subjective opinion about someone else’s creative work makes it obvious how ridiculous and self-important we indeed are as a culture LOL (but not really LOL). Sorry Matthew, you hit a chord with me. As a content creator myself, I am aware of the vast amount of time spent on a project like this - hours upon hours upon hours. You literally pour yourself into the filming and editing, all in the hopes of creating something that will uplift people, expose them to landscapes and places they may never have been, allow them to live vicariously through you when they themselves cannot get out, inform on a piece of gear they were considering buying, encourage them to get out and explore, and really take them along on the journey with you. And if we accomplish even simply entertaining someone, it’s a win! Yet there are always those who, having 114 million other options to watch, will find your channel, not get it or think it’s “ridiculous” and give it a thumbs down or leave a demeaning comment, which really takes the wind out of your sails. All this to ask, “Why Matthew?!” Why the need to comment? Were you hoping for an enlightening response that will turn the “light bulb” on for you as to why Overland and Camping vlogging is appealing to almost 100K people who really enjoy the content of this channel? Here’s a little feedback for you Matthew: you don’t need to always share your thoughts and opinions on things. In fact, most of the time, it’s probably wise to keep them to yourself… unless they are encouraging and/or constructive, which I’m sure the women in your life will affirm.
Rob, you’re killing it man. Beautiful footage and editing, great storyline and vlogging. Keep it up my friend!
I’ve forgotten you had your Tundra lifted? Thanks again for taking me back to my favorite places in Utah.
Personally, I love the content. I've bought a vehicle myself and enjoy watching where he goes. I'm not looking for death-defying trails but beautiful and mild trails like Rob showcases. Now if I could figure out how to find these trails...
The sacrifices to bring entertainment to us who like watching this and other types of content is great and someone has to do it
Thanks!
Thank you!
