    ABOUT US
    Welcome to Grand Adventure, a CZcams channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, nearly always filmed in stunning 4K.
    We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah, and invite you to come along as we travel all around the western U.S. My wife Patricia and I, and our dogs Zoe and Maggie are avid boondockers, so you'll seldom find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds. Instead, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. And unlike most other RV channels on CZcams, we're not RV dealers or full-timers -- we're weekend warriors just like you!
    We'll provide tips and insight on equipping and maintaining your RV, trip planning and travel videos to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!

      Starbreaker666 you're too kind! I'd have to find the time or some staff, for even a 12-minute video takes about 8 hours to produce.

      I agree with this! Your channel reminds me very much of Rick Steves on PBS. He DOES have the staff and you do just as well.

    No Elk! Hah!!
    Last time we went through that area there were two herds of Elk next to the highway. Everyone had pulled over to the side to take pictures. California Highway Patrol came along and chased us all out of there!
    Checked out the campground that you stayed at on Yelp. There were an abnormal amount of complaints about the people that ran the place.
    :(
    Fortunately there are many other good places to go.
    Definitely my wife and I would like to check out the Fern Valley trail.

    • @GrandAdventure
      @GrandAdventure  Před 4 lety

      The management hardly left us with any warm fuzzy feelings, but at the same time there was nothing at all negative about our experience. We'd stay there again if we were back in the area.

    @hmstjohn6236 Před 5 lety

    Another great video Marc. If you’re interested in some history about the trees themselves, check out the book “The Wild Trees” by Richard Preston. It’s the story of a few very brave, and sometimes crazy people who set out to find, and climb, the tallest trees and what lives amongst them in the Redwoods. It’s a fascinating read full of history, daring and adventure.

    • @GrandAdventure
      @GrandAdventure  Před 5 lety

      Yes they're allowed, with the usual National Park-type restrictions on hiking, etc. The pups were with us, but they stayed back at the RV with Mrs. Grand Adventure while I explored the park for the day.

    • @GrandAdventure
      @GrandAdventure  Před 5 lety

      We did not, Shain. Once we pulled up stakes in the Eureka/Arcata/Trinidad area, where had been for roughly a week total between Elk Country RV Resort and Mad River Rapids RV park, we went straight to Westport-Union Landing State Beach north of Fort Bragg.
