  • In this episode of Overlanding in a Van. We decided to quit the route we were working on because the rain and mud were getting too horrible. We decided to find a nice mountain spot and enjoy a relaxing camping experience instead.

    2 of the heaviest hitters of how it's done when pursuing adventures and living like this. You 2 obviously have a wealth of previous experiences and knowledge that we all benefit from. I know you guys have to have a sense of humor. But I like how serious you both take excursions like this. Thanks for sharing. Seems like it must be CZcams van life requirement to show coffee being made during a segment like this?

    One of my favorite sayings is "There are three sounds that sooth the tired soul: Wind in the trees, water in the stream and rain on the canvas." You guys got all three, even though the trip didn't go as planned, so it was still worth every minute. Cheers!

    We must call attention to the fact that you two were on at least part of the Oregon trail and did not die from Dysentery! That in itself is worthy of congratulations and honors. Adding to what looked like an adventure in some beautiful territory. Sometimes it's hard for me to watch your videos because it makes me realize how boring and unadventurous my life is, lol.

    Despite all the bad weather, you fellows managed to put together a great camping trip.
    I especially enjoy seeing your camping skills on display.
    The gathering and chopping of wood, the food preparation, the fire pit, and even the whiskey, really make it real.
    I admit to recently buying a $100 lava rock portable propane fire pit. It’s been a joy to use, and allows us to have a “real” fire in campgrounds that don’t allow wood fires.
    Thanks for “taking us along” on your adventures.
    Happy Trails

    I'm sure you have plenty of water stored up (you seem to have everything dialed in to perfection). But, you're missing out on the best water available - collect some of that rain water 😮 😊
    Safe travels!

    Wow, I love camping! It's such a great way to spend quality time with family and enjoy the outdoors. Speaking of outdoor gear, have you heard of the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It's a powerful and versatile power station that can keep your devices and appliances running for extended periods. Plus, it's waterproof, so you can take it on any adventure, rain or shine! Definitely worth considering for your next camping trip. Happy camping!
