Vložit

- This is the best camping in the USA. Located in the headt of Arkansas. Our lifestyle takes us deep into the Ouachita Mountains in Western Arkansas. We set up camp at our favorite spot, and hike to the Winding Stairs off of the Eagle Rock Loop trail. www.hikingproject.com/trail/7...
Later that day, we have a surprise guest stay one night with us! The next day Cody goes fly fishing for rainbow trout with our surprise guest before they leave. After Cody fishes, his dad and stepmother stops by for the afternoon for some rest and relaxation. We finish out the evening with two of our friends coming to camp with us, and Kellie cooking up an amazing meal!

If we could pick a son, he would be just like Jonathan. What a great young man.
JoAnn Patterson: Corey would be an excellent choice too!
I agree !👍 👍
Jonathon is a wonderful young man!
Absolutely LOVE Johnathan. Had no idea Cody knew him was he was 7
Love that family bond they share in episodes
It's sure is nice to see that bond, very refreshing,we live north of Seattle. It is depressing.
I don't know what's more beautiful arkansas or Jonathan's heart, God bless y'all.
I'm 73 years old and grew up camping every summer at Albert Pike. As a family, we hiked to Winding Stairs and many other places in the Ouachita.
While in college, I hiked to the Winding Stairs many times and even camped under the overhanging rock. So many memories. Thank you for this video. I especially loved the history and the drone shots. I no longer hike due to health issues so enjoy living vicariously through younger folks videos.
If yall want to spend the rest of your vlog careers in arkansa, the Ouachita, or even right there in Albert's Pike, it will be just fine with me...😉
it doesn’t get any more beautiful than that.looking so forward to a life with no alarm clock,schedules or cell phone to keep me entertained.12 more weeks,thank God in Heaven.thank u guys for all of the lonely evenings y’all have kept me going,enjoy ur lives.as always,take care.be safe.fan in Korea.
This was an incredibly fun video to watch! Awesome food, great fishing and great friends plus Jonathan as well. Cody, that area should be a national park as it is beyond beautiful. Kelly, you are absolutely amazing...love watching you prepare and cook.
Cody always bringing epic history to the blog! 👌👍
my favorite part. especially love learning stuff about my home state!
I love how much y'all love each other. Jonathan is so sweet. Great job on catching the trout, Cody.
The Ouachitas are now on my bucket list! Thanks to you guys...you have shown its beauty and it deserves to be preserved as a national park
Love it when y'all are back home...well liked y'all being in Texas and Oklahoma too. Just seems to have a little more spark when you're back.
And congratulations on the trout Cody...awesome. We sure enjoy watching y'all. Blessings.
Wow, that location is priceless! I agree…absolutely breathtaking. Jonathan has the best energy…wow!
I LOVEEEE these longer videos of you all!!
I told my hubby “I wish it was an hour or two….like a movie”
Yikes that may be an editing nightmare that long but I just love watching your informational and calming videos
We are also doing the lavender coffee now
Yum!
Can not wait to take our new RV to Arkansas
This channel is truly the best! 👍🎉
Trout in his backpack. Jonathan makes me giggle. lol. Loved that hike! This was a great vlog, start to finish. Can hardly wait for Kellie’s cookbook!
Morning from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
The title says it all. One of my absolute favorite places on Earth as well! Arkansas is truly one of the most beautiful places in the United States. Love the fact that it's tucked away here. Another great video!
It's interesting how the marketing of our natural wonders so overlooks certain regions. Your spotlight on this area, and the Ozarks, is opening the eyes of people who are not already in love with the region. My family settled there after the civil war and I return nostalgic whenever I can.
I have never really known about this region at all (from the other side of the country)
But I’ve fallen in love with it.
Can’t wait to visit and see this gem of a state
Also have some family moving there end of the year
Just amazing these areas they show
Johnathon is such a mighty being. Just wait till he realizes it and comes in to his power. As long as me keeps that simple, pure heart energy that he has, he is going to kick some butt in the world !!!
Wow! Arkansas is the best I’ve seen so far! No mountain lions or grizzlies is a major plus too! We still owe y’all a BIG Thank you for guiding us to one of the most peaceful places on earth! ✨✨✨
But we have ticks. They're worse.
This was absolutely the best Dome Life video ever! So real to life. Made me wish I could just jump in the jeep and head for the Little Missouri River right now. My thanks to Cody, Kellie, and of course Jonathan.
my youth pastor took us camping here when i was 14 we hiked in what felt like forever to get to this spot. i remember swimming jumping off those bluffs into the deep hole. theres also a spot you can drink clean drinking water out of a natural filter. its in that area. i remember being in aw of the bluffs too
I LOVE that area...been almost 30 yrs since I visited. Thank you for the video and for being such a sweet and well adjusted couple!! 🤗💕 Happy Easter, too!
I’m over here singing “climb every mountain, fjord every stream”
That old gym in Langley was converted to a skating rink. The school building was still standing when I was a teenager. It was one many local hangouts that we no longer have. My good friend owns that property now. I like watching yall enjoying life in my old stomping grounds. 😃
Loved the first set of drone film. Background music with that excellent. Always like Jonathan's visits, he always has a smile.
That is a lovely spot where you set up camp. Not surprised it's your favourite place to stay. Been watching your vlogs for a few years now and this one I think is my favourite. You make me want to visit the US & Arkansas especially...
The South's best kept secret! I hiked the loop last year and fell in love.
Thank you for this excellent video of a beautiful place! I live near the Buffalo & White Rivers and have never been to Ouachita to camp. But I will soon! 😊✌
Great video !! i have been going to to winding stairs and Albert Pike for 50 years and My Mother lived in the area as a child, Its the most beautiful place and the coldest water in Arkansas. Even learned to swim at Winding Stairs.
The Winding Staircase... One of my favorite places in the world as a kid, Thanks!!
Awesome video! Beautiful footage of the land that you guys love! Can’t wait till next Tuesday.
The Big Horns are ,for us, like that place is to you. Epic and eternal. We've been camping in our favorite places for better than 40 yrs now.
One of my absolute favorite hikes. I’ve taken Boy Scouts around the loop for years. I appreciate you “geeking out” on the same stuff that fascinates me.
Beautiful video - nature, love, family and friends!
This was a great video. I especially love the drone segment that shows the beauty of the river and mountains. This entire video made me happy. Thank you!
Another great episode, Thanks
Don't skip exploring Raven Branch, it's some unworldly beauty. It looked like Ireland or New Zealand, lush moss and fern on rocks as big as houses. Across the river, and downstream, from the cliff. I grew up in the Ouachitas, and miss it so.
Where specifically? I'm headed down there next weekend and want to explore this area.
@@rangerdoc1029 I was there in the early spring so it might not be as green in late summer. In his video, at 12 minutes, the swimming hole and cliff is shown. We ate lunch facing the cliffs, on the big slanted (orange) rocks, of novaculite chert. Across from the cliff we went downstream a few feet, maybe 50-100 feet, and turned left up Raven Branch. It is a very difficult hike, some parts goat trail! You will find it on some hiking maps for that park, may be from the Forest Service. Local people didn't use the 'Raven Branch' name, and were surprised when they looked at the map. Just their private swimming hole. Also, we hiked in to the cliff area over the mountains, long way, but circled back to the trailhead quickly on the Horse trail through the bottoms.
Just pristine bud!!! Never seen such beauty in Arkansas..thanks fer sharing man 😎...Im going ✌️
Such a gorgeous place! I really had no idea Arkansas had mountains, rivers, and all. So different from the West I am used to. You guys always make me hungry too. Fresh rainbow trout is the BEST!
Great video guys! Loved the awesome drone footage showcasing the pike and surrounding hills. Jonathon was a certainly happy surprise. Good family and friends always makes the day special.
Oh my goodness! Too cool! Absolutely beautiful! I think I need to put this place on my bucket list! Back to the video! Took my breath away!
We just visited Rockbridge trout farm and I highly recommend it!!
Life is good . That fish looked awesome I’m jealous. Great video
Great video this week! Try this recipe for trout sometime: clean as u did and sprinkle lemon pepper or Tony Chachere’s liberally inside and out. Wrap in foil and cook over coals a few minutes either side. With a baked potato and salad, makes a great meal! Y’all’s looked good too!
This has always been my favorite place to camp + hike! My husband and I even spent some of our honeymoon at Winding Stair! Thanks for all that you all do! 😊
Such beautiful scenery. Thank You both for sharing your travels with us.
This place is so much like Tennessee where I live mountains all around me river in my backyard
Love your way of living
Get you a tiny house and don’t look back
You show such caring love for each other and I wish you happiness as I have living on the Savannah looking up at the star mountains
It’s on the map look it up
Join us in Tennessee ❤️
As always another great adventure! Thank you so much! Got my Dome Life stickers today.
Cody absolutely amazing drone footage ! We all loved it.
Great video!! I loved the long length of it and congrats on catching the fish!!
Love the cooking segments.
Just got done watching this episode finally and can't wait for Tuesdays vlog. Cody congrats on finally getting you some good catches and congratulations to the both of you on another amazing episode. It was great seeing Jonathan as always too!
Great vlog. Love watching the interaction between Cody and Jonathan. Good job catchin fish Cody. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
key lime pie, an American dessert that consists of a graham-cracker or pastry crust, a yellow custard (primarily egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, and key lime juice), and a topping of either whipped cream or meringue. The sweet and tart pie reportedly originated in Key West, Florida, in the late 19th century. So now you know.
Another beautiful video!!!!! Thanks guys....loved seeing Jonathan....and family and friends.
It's SO cute that Cody get's so happy when Jonathan is there 😊 Like brothers from another mother 😂 Love it!
Wow!!! Beautiful💚🌲 Like everyone we love see Jonathan and how excited you all get to see each other. Great video footage of the creek and Kellie, those walnut pastries look so yummy😋
Amazing drone footage & music choice. Thanks for sharing this adventure!!
The video editing/music is exceptional! Making great memories with family and friends.... "foodie" 😜😜 memories with Kelly's cooking! Love seeing Jonathan in your vlogs!
In my opinion, there is not a better campsite meal than fresh caught trout prepared whatever your favorite way is. Add some salad or fresh veggies of your choice and you have such a fabulous meal that is so fulfilling in so many ways!!!! Great adventure with family, friends and good food in one of the most beautiful places on the planet and it is located in our beautiful Arkansas. There is no way that I can think of that could make this video better. Well, if I was there to enjoy it with you, that would be better!!!!! LOL
i can not believe those drone shot are real. That is truly heaven on earth. Thank you for sharing it will give me something to dream about. xoxo
I haven't been a sub long , from what I've seen you two are two awesome people ! Got the skills to camp , and you eat meat ya'll are my new favorite channel ! Kelly is an outstanding chef ! Everytime she cooks I get ravenous! My wife is a lovely woman with many skills , but cooking isn't one of them 😏 !
Yes I’m enjoying that they cook meat and fish 🎉🎉
Down home cooking with Kelly’s flare 🥘
you can make very easy key lime pie using condensed milk and squeezing lots of lime juice in it, adding it to a baked pie shell (or graham cracker crust) and then refrigerating it for awhile to allow it to harden (or also called set). you can use lemon instead and then it becomes lemon “icebox” pie
One of the best videos y’all have done to date and I’ve seen them all. I’m definitely gonna make that hike!
I really enjoy watching the 2 of you on your excursions & the food you cook always looks so delicious
Loved the drone footage, and the trout fishing on the stream was so cool.
What a gorgeous area!
Folks like you give me hope for the future of our country. Im damn near 60 now and have slowed down a bit. I absolutely can't do the insane hikes you guys do. i can still do the kayak camp and cooks and island camps. Would love to see more of that. I consider myself a good cook in the wild but AP is next level. You are a very lucky man. I am a new subscriber and have been binge watching your vids in no particular chronological order. I got heart and blood pressure issues and your vids have helped me! Except for the one where Jonathan was climbing over the cliff just after visiting the cookie cabin. I about shyt myself. 😂.
I have watched you for over a year you are such a fun enlightening couple! Thanks for your inspiration. Also realized i have just subscribed haha. Just been typing dome life thus far
I love my Ouachitas !
Such beautiful scenery and great footage 😊👍
Absolutely beautiful! Great catch, Cody!
Very nice. I will have to visit it myself. Thanks for sharing it.
Epic, Epic, Epic video!! The very best one yet! And i have seen every one!
Your drone footage is insane. You are amazing at it. Love your videos.
So many wonderful things to love about this video
The effort and care you put into you videos is impressive
You should see in calif , the yuba river just like that, but more canyon and swimming holes.
Loved every footage of this video 📹, Kelly you are a fantastic 👏 cook,every thing you cook looks delicious and amazing,thank you.
Glad i came across yalls channel . Love our beautiful arkansas . Im also a camper & trail runner , i havnt been to eagle rock loop yet but its highly on my list . I go to syllamore alot & village creek since they are the closets recreation spots . Do have a few races coming up my fav one is petit jean . Yall take care & have safe & good times
That area has my vote for some kind of national status - park, monument, wilderness. I wish I'd known about it when I visited Arkansas. I was in the Ouachitas.
10:10. Great drone footage. Takes in the regional context.
24:50. Once when I was flyfishing at ni night, I caught a bat. It got tangled in my line
36:27 Mothman alert.
i so blessed to live in Central Arkansas
Wow‼️‼️‼️😳 congrats 😄😄 Cody!!! Great job! Fishing👋💕 So happy to see Jonathan and Cody's parents ‼️😄❤️ Awesome video 📸
I watch your drone footage and I wish I had wings to fly so I can experience it all the time. Thank you so much for sharing your gift of drone photography
I just want to say your drone videos are exceptional and beautiful and the music glad that the area wasn't a national park because it would be overrun with people perfect the way it is. Lovely place.
That’s what I thought on it becoming a NP
Keep it like it is
Otherwise it becomes a zoo
Nice visit with family and friends at the campsite! The meals were outstanding - the fresh caught fish, beer bourguignon over mashed potatoes, the chicken - wow! You and Jonathan were brave getting up so early to fish in the cold weather. Cody. Kellie, I'm with you - I'd be eight inches in the feathers (staying in bed). Beautiful area to camp. Will look forward to the cookoff next video!
Great video. Super cool you all had friends and family visit!
🙋♂🙋♂waving hello from Florida
I agree. Nothing but beautiful. Stay safe guys. Happy Easter.
I love your videos, Kelly your food always looks so delicious.
Fabulous cooking footage, love it!
Love your videos! You should do some videos on your camping meals! Everything you cook looks so yummy, I would love to try them!
It's stunning.
Being a 3rd get Floridian Key limes are only found in the Florida Keys. Truly on of my favorite pies. Again thank you for such a refreshing video
Your drone shots are so beautiful💕💕 thank you😍😍
They have more company than I do and I live in a house in a stable area. LOL Very pretty!
Love the leaf in the hair. Did Cody marry kelli so he could have Jonathan 😁😍🥰😉
Wow that’s so beautiful! I can’t wait to check that area out. I’m in Tulsa putting down some roots then heading over that way! Great video!
Stars are the flowers of the earth.
Yes, that is how I serve mine too over mashed potatoes with mushrooms and I include pearl onions. YUM
Binge watching your channel for 2 weeks now.... I am officially
a FAN!
Take Care always!
💜💜💜
❤❤❤
Jonathan seems to be a gentle soul as well...

These are the vids /
vlogs that I need to
