I haven't been to Bryce in years. We went in April and had snow. Magical in any season. That's an awesome camp spot. Thanks for taking us along.

My favourite national park i've been to. I think it is even better in the spring with snow.

Wow I don't know how I missed these videos. Thank you they are wonder.❤😊.

Wow, what a beautiful place. Nice camping too. Even the drive down was spectacular. Yellowstone has so many fantastic and diverse areas in their back country, you should definitely get a wilderness permit and go back. I wanted to do specimen ridge back in 1981 but there was grizzly bear activity and you had to be in a group of 5 or more and my hiking buddy was not going anywhere near grizzlly bears. We ended up doing Cache Creek to the Lamar River.... I have not made it to Canyon Lands and the mighty 5 yet. Thank you for another amazing video. Thank you again for taking us along on your adventure. ❤😊

Great to see this! thanks for sharing

Zion is best seen late November, early December. Thanks for the video Marmalade.

Bryce Canyon is gob smacking beauty. The queens garden/navajo loop that you did is my fav intro to the park. I’ve done it both directions and I thing the zig zag steps are easier to go down and the gentle climb back up is easier but it depends on the time of day and temps. I’ve ridden a horse 🐎 in Bryce on a horse trail tour. The campground looks fantastic. Best to camp in a vehicle of some sort there cuz they get crazy rain storms year around that turn into flash floods. Mossy cave is a great hike to a cool waterfall . So many hikes into the valley. It’s a very drivable park too. Nearby is Kodachrome Staye park that is amazing too. Much less crowded. Bryce is one of a very few places on earth that has bristle cone pines. At Rainbow point. Nowhere near as old as in the white mountains of CA but still pretty old. Cedar breaks national monument which I heard is what Bryce looked like a million years ago has the bristle cone pine. Utah has so much beauty and wonder. Thanks for posting

Beautiful place. Great tour with videography. 😊

Great campsite. Looked like a fun couple of days. 👌🏻👌🏻

Beautiful place for sure!

This seems to be a new American trend. Of course there will be strong resistance to this. Laws will be passed. Signs posted. Patrols mounted. Car interior designs will shrink and seats will be welded in. Buying extra bedding will trigger phone calls to the police. All this in the land of the free! Stop voting and have a nice day …

Mike, your going to be very happy with them. Picked up a set over the summer. Used it on Cottonwood pass hike and they didn’t disappoint.

You got some solid points here. I especially like the point that there is a trail community and everyone wants you to succeed. Sometimes it's just sharing the next off-trail waterhole that's not marked and other times it's a complete pep talk as you wring out your sleeping setup and dry your tent on an unplanned wet morning. I think community is the thing that keeps people moving forward and never quitting on a bad day. Even us day hikers get the advantages if we are open to them.

I parked at a car dealership , woke up in the middle of the night to a cop parked really close just chilling out. I just went back to sleep and he was gone when I woke up.

Car dealerships tend to have locking gates now. If my friend was living in the car, they could live with me

thanks for sharing!

And this is an improvement how?

Yep, I love the round one I got for $1.25. I found it at Dollar Tree. I used a hole punch and put a hole in it to hang it on a hook in my vehicles. Thank you for another great video. Blessings. ❤😊

How durable are they?

My hubby is a Swede! I think I saw these at Costco. Great tip!

I wonder if they make bigger ones 🤔

Wanted to try one of those. Nice.

Thank you Mike

Cool!

My two cents on tires. If you plan to drive on gravel or unimproved roads, then get a quality off-road rated tire. Street tires and many of the lower quality "All Terrain" tires will get punctured by sharp rocks. ~S

Hi Mike. I wonder if you have considered a Japanese style futon as a mattress? The website sleepoopolis recommends FULI mattress. Pros include "available in extra-long sizes". ~S

The homeless firefighter had a good series as well. Never my ambition to do it full time but I’ve spent a number of nights in my van for various reasons while traveling. You all do you. What’s good for the goose isn’t always the ambition of the gander. No need to be fractious with one another. Different strokes for different folks. Better to have it be a choice than a necessity it would appear to me.

Such great advice for us newbies. Much appreviated!

Thank you, Mike. This is a really great video. Having actually rolled a vehicle over and landed back on the wheels, I can tell you just how important good tires, suspension and alignment are. That was over 40 years ago, but learning that lesson the hard way made me, supper super picky about vehicle maintenance and especially tires and suspension. Of all your tips I feel the one about going to your overnight spot and going to sleep is the most essential if you are doing stealth parking in neighborhoods. Most of the times I have done this and left early, I feel no one even knew I was there. Thank you again for another informative and entertaining video. Blessings ❤😊

Thanks you for the great info. Very appreciated

Have you ever had any difficulty when parked for the night from police wanting to check the "tint" on the windows? If you have black out shades, and they can't see in, is that against the law? In FL we have regulations about what level of tint is legal. Thank you. Keep these videos coming please!

My condo lease is up at the end of December. I’m so ready to move in my car so I can pay off debt and save for a down payment for a house. I just ordered my window covers so I can start to practice.

I mean no disrespect to anyone living in there car but I'd like to say to people, please at all costs do your best not to have to live in your car long. It's not mentally or physically healthful and can lead to all sorts of issues and dangers.

Sorry about the car troubles. That stinks! Thanks for taking us along on the hike 🙂

Nice trail. Thanks for taking us to ok n your hike.

Arent gyms known for high theft rates? They know people will be in for a while so lots of car breakins.

Really enjoyed that one. Looked like there were a few “Washington steep” places there!

Nice heart pumping hike!

That did not look like a Ford Bronco Sport at the end?

Thank God we have land like this preserved!!!! Huge area

Great hike

Is there camping nearby?

Beautiful scenery, great hike. Definitely changing seasons. Thanks for taking me along.

Great hike love the music too!

I so need to get out

Nice ramble.

I’m considering getting an electric generator with plugs for a heater during the winter

UPS maibox centers provide a physical address, not a po box. Can check if have mail via phone. So no wasted trips. If no choice i can easily soft buid my suv. Tempting to save $ but i could not handle being on the move always hinting for safe parking. Overnight. Occasionally using Rest area for lomited 8 hours in seattle doesnt work. Gotta consider menral physical health. Not built for it. Have an old friends gated business, access to shower toilet kitchen would have been doable. But he is a malignant narcissist. Would be stepping into lions den. If had to will figure it out otherwise has no romantic appeal.

I was living in my car for 6 months I have an equinox I worked at an Amazon facility next to the interstate (overnight) I’d move around place to place sleeping during the day it be so hot so I’d go sleep on or by a beach off Lake Michigan to keep cool I slept on my passenger side too also I worked a season job at a Home Depot and one of the guys set me up with a ryobi inverter with 6 hr battery I would be able to plug a fan in and run it for about 4 hours but if I did not plug my fan in I could keep my phone I just double up on blankets to make it comfortable enough to sleep I used my parents address and that’s where I’d take my inverter battery to charge when it die for my parents lived an hour 15min drive in another state anything I order was sent to thier house too
