- While we do love snow camping, when it's not snowy for a stretch it sure turns to a muddy and rainy mess quick. We're exploring around Salt Lake City this episode before we head father north!

Yes! Want to see you go to Alaska!
Be Safe and Enjoy!! 🫂🫂🫂
We're planning on it!
Yes Alaska you would love it go early May or early June!!! Did the Alcan Highway twice when I was in the Air Force. Great Falls, Mt to Anchorage, AK and then Anchorage,AK to Tucson,AZ!!! 🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💯 Great Memories with 4 Kids also!! Did it with a restored 1972 Chevy Cheyenne 2500 4x4 and a Cabover Camper!!
That's likely the route we would take! Lots of planning for it, but we're prepared to spend the year thinking it all through!
nice music, keep up the good works youngsters
Thanks!
It is so nice to watch your videos ! There is nothing like camping and reading a good book.
You two are the cutest 😅 loved seeing Amelia whoop your butt in cards Conner😅😂😅
It happens all the time!
@@LivingLargeCamping 😅😂😁
You would love Alaska! It is incredibly beautiful. BTW, your choice of music in your videos is top notch.
Thank you! Amelia sure does a great job!
If you are going into Colorado from Utah, stop at Mesa Verde cliff dwellings! Well worth driving across the state to see! We enjoy your videos and your precious cargo, Barkley!
If you are still in SLC. Take a drive if weather permits to Brighton ski resort or Snow Basin in Ogden. Breath taking views. They keep the passes well maintained. ENJOY
We'll have to check them out!
An Alaska trip would be awesome.
We think so too!
I would LOVE to see you guys do Alaska! But yeah, if going in the winter which is pretty much 8 months out of the year revisions needed. They plug their cars in at night to a heat source. A must! Think about installing a diesel heater too though you might already have one for all I know. Become a pro and chaining and unchaining your tires and so on!! I follow 6 people who do what you do on all different levels and have been to Alaska along with 3 families that live there. They get their rig their by boat. Don't try to drive as two tried who where extremely prepared and wasn't a fun trip for them! Love watching you two!! Safe travels!!
We'd likely do an April-august trip. Won't be this year but who knows for 2025!
Found the song. Thanks for the great music choices.
Very entertaining video 📹 👏. Utah is a beautiful place, and dinner 🍽 looked delicious, too.
Thank you!
what an awesome couple
Thank you!
Another great video. You guys are inspiring us. Currently camping in our truck camper at Guadalupe River SP Texas.
Thanks for the continued support!!
You picked a great time to visit Antelope Island. In the Summer, the bugs are intolerable.
I agree that driving up to Snow Basin would be worth the time to get there.
If you are looking for a nice camping park, check out Echo Island Park in Coalville Utah.
It is on the Weber River and near two beautiful Reservoirs.
As you head North check to see if Lava Hot Springs in Idaho is on your route.
Also Yellowstone in the Winter is Awesome!
Look at Bear Lake and Cache Valley.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Anchorage AK in late May, early June is the best time to visit! You can have some wild Alaskan fish like Halibut (my fav!), sockeye salmon, king crab legs, really, really good eats there! 😋I'm not a fan of Salt Lake, I used to work in eastern Utah years ago and I always enjoyed the trips to the city (Salt Lake, Provo) because I got to see massive waterfalls, beautiful lakes and mountain passes like Park City, just beautiful! If you ever get to eastern UT I'd definitely check out Vernal where there is a dinosaur query. Very cool!
Thank you for this video other videos you put on here enjoy everyone you put on your channel, I feel when I watch your videos I feel you're part of my family because you both have a kind and caring heart you both make laugh thank the cheerful video you both make a very beautiful couple, and you love to fun that's what I like about you both
Thank you for the kind words! We're glad you enjoy the videos and hopefully they'll continue to improve!
Yum!
Hey guys, another awesome video. We loved the views while you were traveling.
Karal and I have been watching (Reacher) we think you're going to like it. We are waiting for season 3 to come out.
And Connor? Don't feel bad about being beaten at a game, Karal kicks my butt almost every time at Yahtzee when we are out camping.
We look forward every week for a new adventure you guys head to. Thanks for taking us along. You guys find some great places.
Take care, be safe
Eric and Karal
Hi Eric and Karal, thanks for tuning in! At least someone else knows what it feels like to be beat all the time! And we loved season 1, just started season 2 last night.
Hope you both have a great rest of your week!
Yes please!!! Alaska is so amazing. It would be the trip of a lifetime.
Absolutely go to Alaska. I have been there four times; one by motorhome, two by motorcycle and once we flew up.
Sounds like quite the adventure!
Awesome couple ❤
Thank you!
Your videos are wonderful. They go so fast. Take care be safe.
Glad you enjoy them!
Guys , thanks for making me Smile 😊. Love the channel. Keep it LARGE and be safe ! 🇨🇦 🍁
Thanks for the support!!
Yes we would love to see videos of y’all in Alaska.
Beautiful area! We’ve not been to Salt Lake City, but we’ve visited the southern part of Utah. We’ve also visited Arches, Bryce Canyon, and Capitol Reef National Parks, but the latter was closed due to flooding when we were there this past August. Canyonlands National Park is our favorite. It’s absolutely beautiful and not as much traffic.
Alaska would be AWESOME! We’d love to take our truck camper there someday.
Safe travels and have a great remainder of the week!
We agree it would be an awesome trip! Definitely will take a lot of planning, but maybe we've already started (hint hint). hope y'all have a great week!
Cove fort is free and realy cool place
Don't miss Alaska!! I did it in the summer of 2012 and it was awesome!
We're planning on it! Maybe in the books for next year
Yes to Alaska!
Thanks for the input!
I was thinking about Alaska in the opening scenes. Another couple I follow just finished an Alaskan trip they took us along on. At my age I'll never get there but it was nice to follow.
I think it would make for some great videos! And hopefully we'd at least be able to show it justice through the screen. Thanks for the support, Jim!
Oh, I agree. Avoid the cities. I just bought my van today! Build out to come. Hope to see you on the road.
Congratulations on your van!
Definitely go to Alaska! I would love to know where you were camping last in this video. Beautiful, even on a cloudy day.
Thanks for taking us along. I have never been to Utah but seeing your video makes me want to visit.
It sure has some gorgeous areas!
Yes go to Alaska, it’s beautiful !
We're hoping to!
That's awesome you guys are in the neighborhood... I'm in logan currently.. getting ready to head south in the morning to phoenix haha
I have one of those tea strainers! They are great! Sometimes bags break,but the lid also works as a little tray for the bag when you remove it from your cup
Great idea with the lid for the tea bags, I was wondering where to put them!
Exactly head to Alaska by driving through Alberta 🇨🇦 and stop by Lake Louise , Banff , Jasper etc. You will enjoy the venture. We the NORTH ! 🍁 🇨🇦
That would be our route!
Yes, Alaska
Noted!
I enjoyed watching your video. Have a nice travel 👌
Thank you!
Alaska? Absolutely!
Glad you're on board!
I LOVE Antelope Island! I was there in 2010 for a week at Hill AFB and I spent a day exploring all over the island. It was late fall so the snow was just on the mountain and I got to see quite a bit more. Amazing place. Looks like you guys still enjoyed it quite a bit even in frozen suspended animation. Also, I lived in Fairbanks Alaska for 4 years in the late 90s. Much different…lol. Two of my favorite places! Thanks for the video!
We really enjoyed it! Haha and we know its quite different, just has been on our minds and thought we'd drop a teaser!
I really enjoy your channel!!!
Thank you!
Just started the second season of Reacher, your going to love it!
So did we!
Love too see you go to Alaska
We're hoping 2025!
Beautiful trip! We would absolutely love to see you travel to Alaska! You could go through Washington and take the ferry!
Thanks Nicole, that sure would be gorgeous!
Coner what you need is an Arctic Fox 8-11 I got one and Im 6-6 It has an arched foof and large holding tanks 50 gal of water you will need air bags Joe Glynn
I love the AF 865! It would be significantly heavier than our current setup, but the extra headroom sure would be nice
I found your channel oh about a month ago and I'm so glad I did. You two are adorable and just calming to watch. I only wish I could donate/sub etc because I hate feeling like a freeloader enjoying all your content. Some day I will. Anyhow much love and much success to both of......sorry Barkley, the THREE of you.
Thank you for the kind words and the support!
Drive by the Temple. I'm not Mormon, but it's a beautiful structure and worth a drive past it. I love the Wasatch mountains East of SLC and there are some great campgrounds there. Heber City is worth a quick visit and I like Park City for a lunch and a few stores to shop in. So then off to Alaska in May. Do the drive and you'll never forget it. It's a long haul, but with proper planning and some extra fuel in containers...just in case...you'll be fine. I see you have the same cell booster as we have on our Class A. Great to have, but worthless on the drive to Alaska. Take Starlink or rent a sat phone and you'll be able to reach outside help if needed. Take 10 days of food minimum for the drive and plenty of disk space for the thousands of photos and videos as you travel. Plan on spending 3 to 4 weeks so you can see a lot of the wonderful spots. Be sure to go to Homer and park your rig along the Spit. Near Salty Dog if you want some fun and a beer. Denali is a must see. Anchorage is okay, as is FB, but since you're not into cities, just enjoy the smaller places like Homer. If you don't want to repeat the drive back, take a Ferry. I love the drive and have also done the Ferry. The drive wins for me every time. Stay away from Alaska during the summer months, especially around the end of summer...unless you like flying bugs that are really big and mean. Seriously, the mosquitos and other bugs will eat you alive when they peak. Ok, that's a short list. Love your videos. Have fun!
Thanks for the tips! It'll take a lot of planning but we're excited for the challenge. Likely will wait a year but it should be a great time!
Loved this and liked seeing your card game and you two having fun. Alaska is soooo amazing, just go and make sure you go to Denali National park. I saw 13 grizzled in one day and the scenery is stunning.
13 that's amazing! We'll definitely be checking that out
Very nice ... See you in the next one 👊🏻
Thank you, Robert! Incredibly generous!
@@LivingLargeCamping You guys work hard to produce quality content which I appreciate 🌵
I love that you guys play cards!
Just trying to find better uses of our time instead of staring at phones!
Get yourself some Yaktrax. They are very helpful on trails with ice. They are inexpensive, easy to put on, and they don’t take up much space. I would love to see you guys travel to Alaska. Keep exploring!
Great idea! We've looked into them just need to find a store to purchase
Great video and a beautiful part of the country. Loved your music selections to go with this content. PS. Would love to see you capture some sights and sounds of Alaska :)
Thanks! And we'd love to make it happen in 2025!
I really enjoy your videos and try to watch all of them. For my vote, I would love to follow you guys as you visit Alaska! :-)
Thanks for the vote!
Alaska!
Go to Torrey Utah amazing try La Cuava Mexican restaurant!!!
Thanks for the suggestion!
No! It is pretty. But Alaska is beautiful! Take your time thru Canada (1.5 months at least) enjoy. See the Sign Forest. Buy the Milestone! Take the ALCan one way and the Cassiar Hwy the other. Start in April. Be sure you check border for pets vaccs etc, no pistols, shotguns good. Other weapons have to check.
would love to se Alaska
Would love to follow you to Alaska!
We're hoping for 2025!
I think you would love Alaska.
We agree!
Take a look at “Kenny of all Trades” a fellow CZcams Truck camper guy that has a collapsible set of truck camper stairs that look great!! Another GREAT VIDEO!!
I've seen his videos, I'll have to check the stairs out closer!
Great show 🎉 I'm new subscriber ❤😊
Thank you and we appreciate the support!
Yall should ski more and review mountains or something, or maybe your viewers like the same video over and over. Would love to see more adventure.
We're working more skiing into the next video, thanks for the input! We always appreciate hearing what our audience wants to see
Have you seen Kenny of all Trades and the stairs he uses? If not check him out. May be a solution for your stair issue.
I'll have to check them out, thanks!
Don't y'all mean the ( Temple ). 1st church of the DOLLAR BILL?? we have one in FT Collins, CO also.
New sub here! You two are great. What was the song that was playing while Connor was cooking pasta?
Come to Arizona
Can you come to flagstaff az
Alaska 🙋♂️
We think so too!
Definitely goto Alaska! We’ve watched quite a few others RV up there and it looks Awesome! Also, could you tell me where I could get music for future videos? I’m guessing you pay for them? Thanks for all that you do and have a Great weekend!
We think it would be awesome too! And we source our music through epidemic sound. We do have to pay a subscription but they have a large library!
@@LivingLargeCamping Thank You!
Winterized? Is there no tank heaters in thise campers.
We just left that area and went down st george we're the snow stopped
Our Lance 815 is only 3 season rated, our holding tanks are all exposed. Definitely something we'll be looking to change in our next truck camper!
You have to go to Alaska
Hopefully we can!
Where the wild things are?
Go up Ogden canyon
I've heard its gorgeous!
@@LivingLargeCamping it is you should definitely go up there are plenty of campgrounds up there
We'd like to go and we'd like to see if you guys go as well.
Thanks for the input!
If you get a chance, try to at least drive by the Mormon temple in SLC, It’s amazing. 👍
We'll give it a shot!
The Salt Lake temple is under restoration for seismic protection. It’s interesting but not as pretty as usual. It’s covered in scaffolding.
We enjoy your videos, but we really wouldn’t be into winter camping being in our 60’s and do you both prefer no people around?
Thank you! And while its nice to have other people around, its also very nice to know there will always be availability when we show up!

I love your videos, and I usually don't complain often, but your music choices aren't good. It's your channel, so do what you wish. Just an observation.
