- In this episode, I travel through southern Alberta and British Columbia, into Montana. Back in the 48 states for the first time in two months! The Jeep gets equipped with a new tailgate table, and I go on a hiking adventure with Cappy from 410 Expedition. I fall in love with Polebridge, and experience Bowman Lake in Glacier National Park. Jeep Table: venture4wd.com/jeep-table/
Some people are excited because Friday is payday, I get excited because it's when the next venture4wd video drops!
I know right! I'm sitting here now in my kitchen with a nice hot coffee and this video it's become a thing for me on Saturday mornings. Love this channel the production is really top notch. Chris has a great eye.
As usual... love how simple and how natural you are. Nothing fake about you brother.
Thank you for the inspirations.
You are so correct. Very simple but nice videos.
You couldn't have said that any better. Spot on.
9:57 Just revisiting old videos. I bought this table last year, based on your recommendation. I chose this one, over the others, because the magnets mean no pin holes to rattle and one hand operation. This table has proven itself completely rattle free and consistently useful. It holds groceries, a Coleman stove, morning coffee and even my tablet when I'm watching movies at night. I love this table and I wish more people knew about it. Mine does look a little different and sits a little lower, so I think that he is always improving the design. Oh, one more thing. Kootnai is pronounced KOOT-nee.
BREATHTAKING BEAUTY COLORS SCENERY VIEWS VIDEO ! THE TREES LOOKED LIKE A FAIRY TOUCHED THEM WITH THEIR WAND & TURNED THEM GOLD SOOOOOOOO COOL ! BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS ON YOUR JOURNEYS ! ENJOYED !
What an extraordinary drive towards Glacier, I’m envious.
Such amazing views and quality video as always, thank you Chris.
When i watch i just melt into your world and enjoy the ride!
Every time I see a new video I first click the video, then click like, and watch as another amazing masterpiece is displayed.
I have so much fun watching your videos.... I get a snack and something to drink sit back and put you up on my 50 in. screen... it's like watching my favorite outdoor show on PBS.
Oooh yeah gotta try that I usually watch on my tablet.
I do it on my big screen too. I love living vicariously through Chris.
You captured Fall beautifully up north buddy! The mountains are just starting to change here in the Blue Ridge Mountains! You’ve been gone too long and we miss you, come visit again soon!
I'm glad you managed to get a fold down table. I remember you talking about wanting one a while back.
Well Chris, I didn’t think your work could get much better, but I must say this week’s installment raised the bar much higher. You’ve always been a master of composition, color, and storytelling, but this week I felt inserted into your experiences! You have such a great sense of mood and movement. Fridays can’t come soon enough! Thank you so much for transparently telling your story!
Kevin Goza Morning
Love your dashcam pictures!
Chris, I have watched most of your videos and this one is the best yet, the photography is great . Thank you . Many times I come away from your episodes with a strong sense of loneliness, but not this one, the scenery must have been too friendly and companionable . I plan on hitting the road in my 2007 MB G55 in two years, God willing and you have made Montana an absolute must do I can hardly wait!!!
The table is great, but the scenery is truly outstanding!!! Thanks for sharing...
Awesome video as usual!!! Love the table👍
British Columbia is beautiful. Every time I see it I fall in love again.
Beautiful place...
Another great adventure with gorgeous scenery to admire.
Very beautiful video! So excited for fall!
Absolutely an amazing video !!
There are no words to describe how much we loved your video.... absolutely EPIC
Another great post Chris. 🤙🏼
Beautiful towns and country side. Excellent vid.
Damn Chris, you need a hat bud!
Great video, crazy how cold it is already. Those trees are amazing. 🇺🇸
Thank you Chris. Incredible cinematography of the natural beauty available to us. My early Saturday morning coffee just tastes better watching your videos. You have inspired me to take more road trips to explore Thank you again.
Wow! Wow! Wow! That was a sweet one. Definitely inspired me to visit Canada one day. 😍
What a fantastic journey!
Really enjoyed that and the colors were wonderful. Till next Friday!!!
Beautiful country and nice rig. Slowly gearing up for overlanding myself. There a lot to see in ones lifetime. Well done.
Hi Chris, thanks for having me "with you" in Glacier National Park which I have seen 20 years ago. I remember a heavy thunderstorm after dark - thunder like someone hitting giant sheet metal plates with an oversize hammer - and after that a pack of wolfs howling for half an hour. Next day we unintendetly chased away a black bear in the woods .... so good to see this undisturbed alpine landscape again !
What a beautiful episode. For a fella from Australia, to wake up to snow covered morning is a dream :D. Thanks for sharing mate.
Great video so much beauty in the last couple months!!! Glad you are in Montana it’s beautiful there! Enjoy some Huckleberry jam!!
your photography has me ""ADDICTED"" I CANT STOP WATCHING!! CANt tell you how much i love this!! TKU TKU TKU
Chris,
I have wandered in that area recuperating from life as it were. Watching your vlogs gives me a peace of a former time, a journey of healing and rebirth. I know the journey will stop at some point but u till then your adventures save me from reality. Bless you.
Beautiful Chris!! My wife and I spent some time in Montana this past summer and fell in love. Thanks for sharing your amazing week, makes Friday's even more enjoyable!!
Nice video! Love the Fall colors. Your Jeep's color just matches with it all. Makes me want to get into my suv here in Texas and start driving north right now. But stuck at this full time job! So can't just get up and leave.
Great trip through Canada but, glad you are I'm montana . As I have commented before , you will love what it has to offer
Thanks for sharing, as always so well done. yes 2 degrees warmer would be good.
It looked sometimes more like an fall, instead of the fall hopefully nobody get hurt. Even if the snow makes it cold, it looks beautiful and the the colours shine brighter, and you can still go on an adventure, hiking in the rain makes me feel mad.
Nice video again, always exited for the next Friday.
Thanks Chris , nice to see Cappy along as well.
Such Diverse Beauty in the States...... so much variety...... But looks cold, i dont think i would survive it
When you came into the U S you where only 150 Miles from Coeur d Alene , Idaho where I live! I have been following you since you left the U S earlier this year. What a trip.
man I love your videos. very inspiring
Another awesome episode.
I've done a few shutdowns at the elko sawmill near Fernie, beautiful town!
Another great journey thanks you
great video awesome scenery and I prefer the snow, no bugs
Just found your channel and I love it! I was watching your 4/28/17 video where you added the 3.5” lift and was so happy you were in Lewisville, TX. I've lived here for 2.5 years and just love it. I'll have to meet Jason sometime, as well as you if you ever pass through again. (I couldn't comment on that video so I just thought I would put it here on your most current. All my best!)
Really enjoyed this episode since a lot of it is home turf. Glad to see you're not using the toilet for a table. Love that drive between Eureka and the Flathead. Check out Backslope Brewing, across the highway for Mud Man in Columbia Falls; great food, great beer.
Thanks for the trip!
Ah, the epic climb from Canmore to spray lakes. I absolutely love it up there.
Nicely done.
Amazing scenery.
And thanks for showing Canada's outdoors.
Chris the scenery and the colors in this vid were epic!! If ever you ever make it down to Florida let me know, it’s way warmer here haha
Love the new table. Since there's a large gap inside when it's folded up, I wonder if it could be rigged to have slide out extensions on both sides.
I was just on Hwy 40 camping out in the region over the last 4 days. I've got the same tailgate table and I can say there is no rattle at all.
Been along Spray Lakes up there a couple of times with snow in the Spring.
How is fall lol? Thank you for showing 90% of Americans what they won't get to see ever! Its beautiful! Great channel!
Love Polebridge!
Thanks Dave! Nice Table..
nice video. Great country shots. You make me want to turn my Jeep into a overland unit, but my Jeep is half the size.
Unreal views
Great vid! Kahtoola microspikes should be on list of items to get for winter hiking.. Save yourself a broken tailbone :)
Cool! Daily “cheese” sandwiches on processed sponge bread, lots of pizza, high sodium canned food, and Spam! Should add some fatty bacon while at it 😉🙈
That's the same table I have!! It's amazing!!
Dan Dryfhout link to purchase?
These videos are truly inspirational and beautiful. Thank you for posting them. Someone mentioned this in a previous video and I am also very curious: Bears! You are in bear/ mountain lion country. With the food in the jeep, I'm completely amazed you havent had issues and encounters. You are a brave man going on those hikes alone. I hike alone as well and did meet up with a bear once. Scared the heck out of me. And when you went into the cave, I was like nooooooo dont do it!
Heard Calgary had over 12" of snow on the 4th. You got out in time. :)
Very cool content. 👌👍
Snow? I'm jealous already.
You need micro-spikes for snow conditions. Helps.
Love your filmmaking and photography. Can you do a show on what you use to film and record .Thanks
New camera? Colors are amazing!
Thank you for another great video! I have one question though, could you post the link for how to purchase that table? Thank you!
Great job ,very interesting videos 👍
Nice video ,Chris !
Every Saturday morning it is always our Saturday morning family breakfast time ,we love it .
But I se you sometimes struggle with loneliness...that hurts me , I am in the same stage of life like you and are building and preparing my trips an vehicle ,a old G wagon Mercedes from the army ,but I have trouble with the hole idea of traveling and leaving my kids and lovely wife .
I am married and have to daughters,14 and 18...I was a independent industrial maintenance contractor for 30years now I am 48 and complete worn out sever arthritis,some prosthetic ligaments and had more than 30 surgical intervention due to broke vertebrae,hernia ,etc ,etc.
I wanted to travel with my dearly at ore pension age ,but I am afraid that I will be disabled at that age so want to do it now ,but don’t like to hurt my family by beings whit out dad for periods of feu months ....
I don’t no what to do ,somebody any advice ?
Thanks for reading this out .
Levistre hugues
Keep rolling Chris we love it .
Hugues, I am in a similar boat but the difference is I still love my job and have been doing it for 53 years and will miss it terribly . I will miss my sweet wife- who has no intention of camping or traveling with me- too much ,so I plan on traveling no more than 6-8 weeks at a time and then return home for a while to recharge and then if the road suits me go back out again.I too have medical issues as most 73 year olds do but I do not intend to let it stop me.I have a rooftop tent and some camping gear and will add to it as I can.
Anyway my advice to you Sir is to try it for awhile to see if you like it. There is no law that says you have to commit to an extended journey or deny your self the joys of Family.
By the way what G wagon do you have?
Jack O'Connor hello,
Thanks for your advice and support, now I am from February at home due to a prosthetic wrist surgery .
I was a blacksmith from my 14 year and started to work as independent smith until my 30’ ,al this hard work and overbearing of my body has resulted in this now .
I am 48 y and had right shoulder surgery due to arthritis,also and elbow,and wrist.
I am from February at home in illness leave my trouble started in 2008 and my body declined rapidly in these 10 y and my wife supports my idea to start traveling now and not at the age of my retirement,than I wouldn’t be Abel anymore.
But it is the hole situation that troubles me ,we wanted to travel together whit my wife when we where at the age of retirement.
I will not be able to work again for 14 a 16h a day ,it was al declining for to year and could only work on day and one day I was totally broke the next day ,the pain is to Much ,I have CRPS in my left foot and now since the last surgery in my right wrist also ,and on morphine since 2014 .thats makes al this histories so difficult.
But anyway I keep working on my car and when they give me permission to start working again I will se what I will do with my business.
The G wagon is in fact a old French sub version of the G wagon named a P4 Peugeot. I have a Facebook page g klass or p4 On Facebook you can find the restoration and the progress ,now it is in hold due to my problems .
The Peugeot p4 is the car that the army use now ,I did drive these cars in the 90’ in my service time in a French army ,and always wanted one .
I purchased one 4years ago and started the restoration ,the p4 is manufactured under the license of Mercedes in the panhard army manufacturing equipment company ,
It is only a tree doors
G wagon whit a indenord Peugeot engine of a Peugeot 504 a transmission off a Peugeot 304 and the rest is almost mercedes for 90% ,when I bought it I could choose from 10 pieces and choose one that served in Libanon in beyrouth form most of his life time so it was rust free,now I have changed the engine and transmission,back to a Mercedes again ,on the Facebook page you can see the progress .
I thank you four you’re interested and advice and find it remarkable what you cane do at this age ,nice really 👍🏻.
Hope you like the FB Page .
Kind regards
Hugues .
I found your facebook page and your old truck looks good. I used to own a 1990 MB 250 German Army Wolf which I really liked a lot. I unfortunately had to sell it since my wife and I are downsizing and only wish to maintain two cars, her Lexus lx350 and my 2007 MB G55. Your health issues while painful and annoying are not life threatening so you should be able to function quite well camping and traveling. I presume you live in France, and Europe is so much smaller than the USA there is civilization always close by you should do fine. You are doing some very serious restoration work on your car and I just wish I could do work like that. I hope to see photos of your adventures soon.
What do you do to stay warm?
2 years later watching this because the Canada border is still closed and can't adventure up there!
yay! Cappy....
Another great vid, can I ask what camera and lens you are using.. The quality is just fantastic. Thanks
Do you have a link to where that table can be purchased?
How can I get one of those tables for my jeep?
Dude! You do know where you are right? You do know there are Grizzly bears around there? Why would you be walking into caves then? By the way, what kind of camera are you using for these scenes? Outstanding!
We don’t have mountains like that in Pa.
How can I get in touch with Dave for one of those tailgate tables?
“Maybe some Guano” 🤣🤣🤣
Hey man, you really need a drone!
There are awesome views
Chris I,m on edge when you explore alone(slippery conditions by drop-offs and a cave-can you say bear or Mountain lion) also curious how many times have you gotten a flat or a breakdown in all those miles you travel and how do you calculate fuel consumption- I know I sound like Debby Downer but inquiring minds have to know I guess that scenery intoxicates you to throw caution to the wind
Great videos! A really wonderful job you do. Eat more veggies, my friend! 🥕🥒🥗🌽🍅🍠🌶
1980 called.... it wants it’s sign back !! Haha
Was waiting for this! Can you please get some bear spray for when you are exploring caves?
Hey Chris! Do you worry about encountering bears at camp? What are some of the precautions you take while camping in big bear country?
These tables still being made? Tried ordering one and PayPal took my money but haven’t heard anything back at all in 2 days.
That's funny, I noticed just last video someone made the comment ''you need a fold table''.
Tailgate table link? Want to purchase but cant find him online.
Here is an email to contact Dave Ross about the table DLR.AB.CAN@gmail.com
What is the price of your fold down table in US dollars shipped to Mississippi
😎👍
Is there a link to purchase the rear door table?
Here is an email to contact Dave Ross about the table DLR.AB.CAN@gmail.com
