    I've missed seeing your videos! I didn't realize you started, at least a few, youtube(s) again.
    We don't have access to Discovery, and our local PBS just doesn't show The RVers (I've asked 3 times. Now we'll go back and watch the other recent videos.
    I'm so saddened with Bella's passing. I'm sure you really miss her!!! And Mocha too. It hurts my heart.
    It's good to see you again.

    Go to the town of Williams Lake, BC, Canada on Hwy 97. Take Hwy 20 west to Bella Coola. It is a beautiful ride, 453 km (281 miles), it is about a 6 hr drive. There are videos on driving it, due to the fact it has a section that is one of the steepest grades on the continent going down an encampment ( similar to the one at Niagara Falls only bigger. It is 18% grade for a portion of it, but your truck camper will make it with no issues. Bella Coola is a beautiful valley on the west coast of BC. This is one of your best videos, top 5 at least.

    Glad to see you back on. That area of the country is my favorite. We went back there in April and May of this year. We didn't go back to Zion but did go to Moqi Dugway, Goose neck St Pk, Monument Valley, We also went to Lone Rock but the water was even lower then. No water at all aroung Lone rock and the wind was blowing 50 - 60 MPH. We went to kanab but didn't get the wave either. Great trip and great way to show it off

    Not sure if y’all have one yet, but look into getting a 2wd Lo lockout. I have one on my 3500 g56 ram and makes a world of difference when you’re going slow on backcountry roads. Enables you to use your low gears in 2wd. More gears down low keeps the transmission happy!
    So sorry to hear about your pup too. Lost mine this time last year. Made a video about it and still can’t watch it.
    Cheers from a fellow YouTubin full timer like yourselves.

      @MortonsontheMove  Před rokem

      I agree, we love water skiing! Bella had a long term kidney disease that finally progressed too far. Throughout this whole trip we were giving her subcutaneous injections and making special food for her to prolong her comfort and we're glad she made it through the adventure, but she went downhill fast in the end.

    Love your adventures! Do you think most of the off-roads would be drivable with a dually? Or do you think the singles made a huge difference on your rig? Thanks!

    • @MortonsontheMove
      @MortonsontheMove  Před rokem +2

      The singles make a huge difference. Most of the places we go would be ok in duals and we did that for a long time, but it's the deep sand and extreme uneven rock terrain where the singles really excel. Miles and miles of extremely rough road are much better with them aired down too. Width wise we are just as wide as a dually in this tho setup.

    FYI the in-person lottery has dramatically changed and is an even bigger debacle than before. It requires an online check-in when you’re within a “geo fenced” area. It epitomizes everything awful of what’s become of these Instagram-ruined natural places. Been trying for about ten years now. Pretty cool that as an American taxpayer I can’t visit my public lands despite a decade of trying. Needs to be fixed.
