Thanks for the dry camping review. We are venturing more in to dry camping and we do enjoy it. We run with two 6v GC batteries with 170 roof solar and 200 portable panel. Have not needed to use generator to charge but like you we are not using a lot of power hogs, other than furnace. I’m with ya would like to upgrade to lithium just to have more useable amp hours. We are with Abby on summer camping. Love the Sw in the spring and higher elevations in the summer.
We stayed in that exact site in 2021 during the beginning of Covid. We were on our return back to NC. That site is the Primo site for sure but it was so windy that we couldn’t cook outside. It was a still a fantastic stay! Thanks for the video!!
Verry nice to see you both doing good - by the way you would be great parrents ! Love to see your vids, hope il get back soon to vaccationtrips usa Greets Steve
Thanks for sharing there are different types of Lithium batteries Lithium Ion are subject to thermal runaway while the Lithium Fe batteries are not as likely to catch fire. A good general purpose binocular I use is a 10x50. Have safe trip back.
@14:56 That shot of Orion was great! I don't know if you're into telescopes but with all the dark sky places you visit I'd go nuts! Something like a Meade ETX 90mm Mak and a few eyepieces and a camera adapter or two would definitely be in MY kit! I have some bigger ones, but that little thing is my favorite "grab and go" 'scope... 🤔
The telescope/binocular thing Abby said, i'm gonna own it as i sugested that in the previous video. I suggest a 7x35ish for daytime or a 10x50ish for nighttime. As always love the videos. 🙂
Couple tips for future adventures. Binoculars: Swarovski NL Pures are widely considered the best binos on the market for viewing wildlife/bird, but they have a slight tint to them (best way I can describe is it makes animals contrast from terrain/veg). Leica in my opinion has the clearest and truest color in glass on the market. Personally I run Leica Noctovids, but will be trading in on the Swaros next winter. UTV/Side-by-side: Check out the Honda Pioneer 500. It is a true 50" machine, which is important here in the west because allot of trails are size limited. Fair warning though, some are 50" straddled (ATV only). It's a solid machine though. Not a ton of power, but good torque. Gear driven not belt driven, and they don't break the bank. Allot of guys drop 20-35k on UTVs, then realize they can only go where Jeeps can but they're always broke down too (Lookin at the Can-Am boys mostly). Anyways, if you find your way to Idaho or NW Montana I'd love to give you some recommendations. Spent most of my career in public land/natural resource management and I think you guys would love it
You are going to love the new batteries your going to get. Be sure you have your converter upgraded. I didn't and I could not get to 100%. Lithium batteries require a much higher full capacity to fully charge them.. Something about how they charge and reaching full. Ordinary batteries need a top off point that lithium doesn't want to have. I'm enjoying your trip. Keep it up.
You can install 30 amps af. Solar panels on your systr. Your existing panel is probably only 15-16 amps. You can install about another 12-14 amps of panels. This would about double your total charging ability. Enjoy!

What a place to see. The view was breathtaking in 4k. Nice job on the short videos. Thanks for sharing the experience
Loving all your video's. Thanks for sharing.🏴
Love your trips Adam and Abby.
God bless you and Abby. Looks like an awesome trip

I like you guys. Abby's infectious joy makes it all good.
(My wife has turned me into a birder. Here in Central Texas, there are quite of few.)

It’s something we’ve talked about for a couple years but just haven’t invested in any of them yet.
Gooood afternoon from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great afternoon!
We stayed at Goldings 40 years ago, it was run by the Navaho. Most beautiful place on the planet. They had 30 sites and a small camp store.

The inverter is made to work with both types of batteries.
Thanks for sharing the update on the solar and your food experiences. We hope to head out to the ocean next week and dry camp.
