@@LunarLanderXplor thank you!

This is the Tembo Tusk Skottle. We also have the iKamper Disco

Its the iKamper Mini 2.0, weighs about 125lbs. We have the 2020 RAV4 TRD and have had the tent installed for 3-4 years without any issues.

I'd say it's about an hour, maybe a bit longer, depending on what kind of vehicle you have & how fast you're going.

@@LunarLanderXplor Thank you. We’re camping at a campground that’s 15 min from Bowman Lake Rd next week and want to do a day trip to Bowman. We’re in a 2022 4Runner TRD with KO2’s. Thanks for the quick response.

Nice, it will be an easy ride for you then! Do keep in mind it gets busy on weekends, go on a weekday if you can

Glad you're OK! We pretty much always wear helmets unless we are going slow just around camp. 99% of the time we do wear helmets ⛑️

If there is trash service & porta potties, its likely not dispersed camping. Dispersed camping sort of implies you are just out in nature outside of any serviced campsites. Agreed it depends on state, and we are lucky on the West Coast to have a ton of public land with dispersed camping allowed.

The US Forest Service definition of dispersed camping: "Dispersed camping means no services; such as trash removal, and little or no facilities; such as tables and fire pits, are provided"

Did the hike with no hiking experience? That is insane haha. Glad you made it out safely.

Check their website! They have all the model details listed on the site.

Thanks for the comment! Yea I did run into a few small issues with the install since I have never installed a dashcam before, so I wanted to show what I encountered

Thanks for sharing your story! Its definitely a bucket list hike. That's crazy you did it with so little water! Glad you made it out safely with a story to tell.

@@LunarLanderXplor The apples helped. Definitely, it is recommended to bring as much as water you can (3 liters?).

Thanks! Love the Bote boards! So many great lakes in Tahoe National Forest

The dashcam is holding up great. To download videos I just pull the SD card and download to my computer, I don't need the footage often. It can read license plates well during the day, ok at night, 6/10.

We do! It fits underneath the trunk storage, there is a space there for a spare tire.

Hi! We generally avoid sharing exact coordinates, but there are so many campsites in these areas, you will have no trouble finding something awesome. Part of the fun is searching around for a good spot anyway. We generally find campsites on the eastern side of Hwy 395, in the area across from June Lake, and also across from the Mammoth area.

The food was great actually.

ARB Touring 2000mm

We actually have a video about finding camp sites: th-cam.com/video/u4F8J1kW8WY/w-d-xo.html Normally we plan everything online, then scope out the area while we are out camping. We always have a plan B in case a road is blocked, too sketchy, or if we decide to change plans.

Drone? No drone in this video, that was just a realllly long selfie stick 😉.

@@LunarLanderXplor I was prepared to use the same excuse 😉

I would think so! The road is not bad at all, some rocky sections, and really just one turn that is somewhat sharp & rutted out. Note there is likely still snow up there right now, so probably best to wait until all the snow has melted. Also, this is a popular spot, so I recommend going mid week if possible to get a good spot.

We didn't do a rear camera. There is an option but we have front only

this was near Williams Hill Recreation Area in CA

I believe this was late June 2020. Temperature was great that time of year. Probably still snow up there right now I would assume, given how much snow the mountains got this year. Its probably getting warmer up there already though. Awesome place, lots of easy trails to explore.

You only need to connect to its wifi to connect via the app to view videos. Normally I just pull the SD card if I want footage, which is very rarely

Ours does not. Not sure if they have an option for external battery

I believe they do have a rear camera option

Ok, cool thanks for the response. 👍🏻🤓

We have a Frontrunner rack attached to the TRD roof rails, and the tent and awning are attached to that 👍

In order to see the public land details, you have to enable the Public Land (US) map layer. Go into the Layers menu on the left side, and at the very bottom you should see Add Map Layers. Then you can search for Public Land, and enable that layer. From there, drag the Public Land layer to the top of your visible layers list to ensure it is visible. With this enabled, you should be able to click into public land areas and see if it is National Forest or BLM land.

@@LunarLanderXplor Thanks so much for your quick reply! I had tried that and it was not working. This time I zoomed out more and it did work! Your advice about looking at the roads is also helpful since my vehicle only has 7.3" of clearance and I should not do high clearance roads. Very much appreciated!

Hey, thanks! I don't believe the Subaru wilderness editions were available when we got our RAV. They look great though

Aw they are the best dogs! Charlie is in a lot of our videos but we'll keep showing more of her!

@@LunarLanderXplor 👍

Not a bad idea!

It records whenever the car is on

Rough Country 2.5" spacer lift + Dendoff rear coils

@@LunarLanderXplor thanks,it looks amasing. I think I will get Rav4 soon.

We camped in a few different locations on this trip! There are so many dispersed campsites along the 395, you kind of just have to explore & look for a spot that works for you. At the beginning of this video, we were across the highway from June Lake. There is a big area with a bunch of dirt roads & potential campsites there. Later in the video, we were at Alabama Hills, which has become pretty popular & crowded. Hard to find a campsite there on weekends now.

Yup! Our RAV4 TRD was stock for a long time with the iKamper tent. We have since added a lift, skid plate, bigger tires, and a few other things, but the iKamper was the first upgrade (after a roof platform from Frontrunner).

@@LunarLanderXplor thank you! Love the channel. Do you know what the weight limit is for the rack and roof? (For example if I look at a bigger tent? I’m wanting to have a similar setup for my small family of three.

We have it plugged into a Dometic PLB40 battery, and we bring a solar panel for trips where we play to stay in one spot for more than 2 days. We show a bit more detail about it in this video: th-cam.com/video/LGMye5gm9YU/w-d-xo.html

@@LunarLanderXplor thank you I’m going to check it out now!

Camping season is right around the corner! Definitely excited. Best tip: you don't need much to have a great time camping! As long as you have your safety & emergency gear, a way to sleep & stay warm, and a way to cook / eat, the rest is basically optional stuff. Just get out there and explore!

Its not really a campsite. We just dispersed camped in the Williams Hill Recreation Area in NorCal.

Frontrunner Slimline rack!

Not sure actually! We've never messed with the camera since we set it up. It just auto-records & we pull video from the SD card if needed.

Thanks! We installed a lift, and also had some modification done inside the wheel well.

😅

Thanks!! The big knife is so good tho! Just feels so satisfying to chop things with it

It definitely does reduce the incline & provide a pretty flat surface. Because the drawers add height in the trunk, and the sleeping platform extends out from the top of the drawers, it does not have the same incline as you would experience sleeping in the trunk without the platform. I don't think there is a better sleeping system for inside the RAV.

ARB touring 2000mm, its been great!

👍👍

Point me to the other channels doing eggplant & feta, smashed cucumber salad, and roasted peppers while camping, please. I'd love to see what video of this trend you are referring to. What is sad is you showing up in the comments to put us down 😅

@LunarLanderXplor you literally look at what every other TH-cam video is doing and do it slightly different if any change at all. Pathetic

Notice how you did not point me to the other videos you are referring to, that supposedly we are copying. Where is your camping video at? Looks like your channel is awfully empty. I'll take advice from those who have experience to offer (which is not you)😅😅😅

Ooh that would be nice!

Probably yes, but I would definitely encourage taking on any of these trails with all terrain tires, emergency gear (spare tire, air compressor, etc), and a skid plate to protect your oil pan in case you hit any rocks along the way. We did this trail before we had any lift or tire upgrades, so we were on out stock ground clearance height (8.5" I believe), and we had the AT tires the RAV4 TRD came with (which are actually really good for stock tires).
