‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣ THIS EPISODE ‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣‣
In this episode, we get to do something we have never done before in 5 years of traveling full-time on the road - stay in a National Park campground for 7 days straight and BONUS: we didn't have to move sites once!
Since we didn’t have any hookups in this campground, we wanted to share some of our tips and tricks with you on how to prepare for dry camping or boondocking. This includes getting all of your groceries before heading into the park (all stores inside the national parks will be more expensive and have less variety), making sure everything is charged before you get there, having plenty of gas for your generator, and knowing where the water is located to fill up your fresh water tank before you park in your site.
Bryce National Park is one of Corey’s favorite national parks to photograph. Unfortunately, there was a full moon when we arrived so that was going to hinder him from getting the Milky Way shots that he was hoping to capture.
We stayed in North Campground which is the campground in Bryce that sits on the rim side, meaning you are able to walk from your campsite right out to the rim overlooking the canyon below.
There are 4 overlook points along the Rim Trail that you can either hike or drive to, and we wanted to give you an overview of all 4 of them: Bryce Point, Inspiration Point, Sunset Point and Sunrise Point.
Stay tuned for next week as we share what we could get done in Bryce Canyon from sunrise to sunset, and, yes, donuts were involved! Be sure to like and subscribe and click on the bell icon for notifications when we release new videos!

FYI: there’s a Lifetime Military National Park Pass for free now for those that don’t know. We love your videos and especially the sunrise & donuts/coffee segments.
Thank you for the heads up 🙏😊 coffee and donuts return next week 😎
Disability lifetime pass as well.
Huh I didn't know that. I just went to the USGS site and signed up :) Cost me $10 for processing fee but got the Lifetime Vet pass :) Super cool!!!
As a photographer myself, I absolutely love your videos because you always have a photographer's eye for everything!!
I appreciate the compliment, thank you 🙏 the challenge of getting unique shots or even just my version of something else that inspired me keeps it fun for me. I’m sure it’s the same for you😃
Bryce in the winter with snow on the formations are spectacular. Best NP.
Still on our list to see it with snow!
Those lookouts were amazing, we sure live in one of the greatest countries in the world.
The horseback ride through Bryce was the best way for us to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time.
We saw a bunch of those groups, that looked like a good time!
Took our grandson to Utah last year, We enjoyed all its National Parks, but Brice was our favorite.
It is our favorite in Utah as well!
Great video! Beautiful cinematography!!!
Been gone for 4 months😮😮 I have 3 hours to blow!! What better than to binge 4 months of your channel🤗👍💖 Boy have I missed your videos!!! I ALWAYS look forward to Cory's Drone footage and still shots!!!! I still believe your photography is at the very top of all the You Tube travel channels that I follow closely👍💖 HAPPY TRAILS DARLINGS🤠💖😎
Very kind of you 😊🙏 sounds like you’re on or have been on and amazing journey of your own!
Leila, ever the one to hold family close. I teared a little hearing her concern that her big sister may be leaving the nest some day. You have raised two very caring girls that will go far in life. Corey, I get that the moon ruins the stars but the moon makes some of the best photography in my opinion yet all your pictures are the best.
In Canada, we have a Dinosaur Provincial Park. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site situated a two-hour drive east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada; or 48 kilometres (30 mi), about a half-hour drive northeast of Brooks. It has Hoodoos as well.
The park is situated in the Red Deer River valley, which is noted for its striking badland topography, and abundance of dinosaur fossils. The park is well known for being one of the richest dinosaur fossil locales in the world.
Sounds like a place we would want to visit! Thank you for the tip!!
Sounds like a place we would want to visit! Thank you for the tip!!
Bryce is Spectacular! I only spent a short time there, but Hope to go back one day!!
It gets better and better every time we go back!
Bryce is so beautiful. I can't wait to go back. The one time we were there we did the horseback ride - fabulous way to get to the canyon floor and back.
We visited Bryce Canyon in the summer of 22, our second time there. We stayed at Ruby’s, which was actually the next best thing to being in the park, but your site was amazing! I’ve been around RV’s for over 50 years, but some of Corey’s comments were well beyond what most vloggers cover! The effort you put into your production really pays off; the colors are beyond incredible!
I love Bryce! Can't wait to see more!
Can’t wait to share more tonight!
Your photograph is amazing. I love traveling with you from my living room. All the info is great too!
Thank you for allowing us into your home! So glad you are along with us for the ride!
Always look forward to my Sunday night video.
Thank you, Richard🙏
Can’t wait to visit Bryce Canyon
We can’t wait for you to see it for yourself!
Wow what a view… You guys ROCK!!!
Thank you so much for watching!
As usual, it's always nice and beautiful to follow you from Montreal Canada
Thank you for coming along 🙏
Lol! Over the Summer we traveled on 70 from Kansas into Colorado also, said the exact same thing when crossing that state line.
😂😂😂
It’s a great national park. I love living in Utah.
I WILL GET THERE ONE DAY
Our advice….go as soon as you are able!! Don’t wait, you will not be sorry!!
Bryce Canyon is awesome. We worked at Bryce Canyon Pines Chevron Station RV park and campground. Hotel Restaurant and Horse back rides. We were there for 7 months. Safe Travels from Show Me RV Adventures . Clayton&Denise.
Such an amazing place to work for the season! Thanks so much for watching!
Fun times. Beautiful pictures ❤️
Thank you for joining us!
Beautiful video as always. Bryce is definitely on my bucket list.
You will absolutely love it!
Wow, the photography! And I am sure there don’t do it justice! Looking forward to next week.
We heading that way next fall.
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Bryce looks awesome. Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome, Bryce is incredible! Wait for next week, I’m editing a hike we do down into the hoodoos
We can’t wait. We love your videos.
Thanks for the tips and overview. Looking forward to next week.
Thanks so much for watching!
I was at Bryce in 2017, and loved it. I want to go back.
I totally understand, We just left and I want to go back 😂
I love Bryce. Make sure you hit Highway 12 on the way out. It’s to the east of the park and one of my favorite drives. Thanks for another great video!
Another great one!
We plan on going there too!!
oh im so jealous I love Bryce Canyon .. my brother lives in Parawan and my son up further north so I have been to Bryce it is amazing
It gets better and better every time we go back!
We can’t wait to get started.
Are you guys launching soon?
We went to the Bad Lands and ended up with a super moon! Husband was so disappointed.
You actually taught me something new about trailers !!
Beautiful scenery! On my RV I had to put ball valves on the end of my fresh tank overflow hoses. It’s not the biggest tank (48 US Gal). (Good size for a 22.5 foot floor plan) So if I am dry camping or just going a short distance I like to have full tanks. But I would lose almost 1/3 of my water as it sloshed around. Now I arrive with a full tank. Just REMEMBER to open the ball valves when filling! 👍🏻
Beautiful scenery and photography. Y’all have the best adventures out there. Keep up the good work.
Great, we stayed at the campground just outside the entrance but wish now we had stayed there!
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful, can't wait 😁🥰
Thanks for the reminder of why Bryce will always be at the top of our favorites. We didn't get to see a sunrise or sunset, but we will. Next week should be a blast. 18! Dang, 5 years has flown by.
It has unfortunately in that respect, flown by… but that’s why we’re doing this, to make memories for the short time we get to have our girls all to ourselves 🥹 it’s not over yet though 😎
@@FindingOurSomeday I can see Lily in a teardrop tooling down the road......
Thanks for sharing.
Thank YOU for watching!🙏
I think it would be good if you could talk more about “axle tweaking” and how it affects hitches etc. Thanks.
Wish we would have seen you when you were in Bryce. We were there for four months as camp hosts in Sunset camp ground. Loved it and we're going back April thru July.
What an amazing place to camp host! So sorry we missed you!
I've lived in Utah my whole life and never been to Brice. Seeing some of the pictures shown, I really need to get down there.
Definitely time to make the trip! What a beautiful place to call home. Hope you are able to make it over to Bryce soon! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your family adventures. As was commented below, I enjoy landscape photography as well, and love seeing all the adventures and locations you get to go on. It doesn't help my list of places I'd like to go, but would be a lot of fun to see the beautiful locations and capture them for myself.
Nice duck dynasty beard! Scraggly! Love it!
Your Maine pride shows up in every video. We get to learn and experience your adventures frame by frame. Thank you.
We would like to see a little more of the girls as long as it doesn't embarrass them really enjoy vicariously traveling with you all
Sometimes they like to be filmed sometimes not. I don’t blame you, they are far more interesting then me 😂
We just spend 22 days in the same spot in one of our national parks here in South Africa. We park the RV (or caravan as we call it) in a camp and go out everyday. But I must admit we were getting a bit tired of doing the same thing every day for so long. We did about 2000 miles in the park while we were there.
thank you for the information, so helpful.
Good to hear, thank you 🙏
Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us!
Just spent three weeks with my wife and RV out in Utah and New Mexico. Went to Bryce Canyon, Red Canyon, and of course Zion National Park. Stayed in Kanab at Grand Plateau RV Park. GreT place to stay if going through there again. Love your videos.
Love the drone footage!!
I appreciate the compliment, thank you 😊
Headed out that way and drycamping for the first time tomorrow. 🤞🏼 we appreciate all your tips and trips! Go Navy 🇺🇸
Bryce is so beautiful. We loved it there.
Have fun with your family long as you can love family
Beautiful, love the drone fly overs. Stay safe and warm
Love watching you guys. I share your videos so others can watch too and maybe subscribe.
Bryce looks absolutely amazing! I’m sorry your stay was ruined with the doggone full moon. 🤣
Those drone shots were on point!
Every time we visit a park that we have already been to. We try to stay longer and it never seems to be enough. The longer you stay the more things you find to do. Which is great!
Thank you, guys, and safe travels!
Love Bryce but a week is about 4 days too long for me. You could do every trail 2-3x in a week and there isn’t too much around there outside the park. Great video.
Nah it gave us time to slow down, hang out in the campsite, and take the rim hike/walk just about every evening. But I agree if you’re just trying to “do” Bryce you only need a few days.
Are you still using your GMG? We got the Trek and love it to smoke salmon, ribs, tenderloin and all the rest. Hope since you are in one spot for the week you will cook something on the GMG. Love your travels since we are grounded because of health problems.
We still use the GMG daily 😎 smoke pichana coming up next week 😃 good to hear you’ve enjoyed the Trek( essentially the same as what we have)
Beautiful footage 😍
Every time my husband and I watch your videos, we find ourselves commenting that you have the best videography out there. Every place you go ends up on our must see list. Thanks for your beautiful vlogs!
Great info about the different places to see along the rim, Thanks for sharing!!!
Another great trip in the books. Thaks for letting me come with you.
Don't you just love Bryce at sunrise?! Takes your breath away. My laptop wallpaper is one of my pictures of Bryce at dawn with amazing clouds. You guys scored one of the best sites! I was directly across from that one when I was there for a few days last year. I live just 1.5 hour drive away. I can't believe you got in for a whole week! So glad you had a great time.
We stopped in Panguitch for lunch at that Cowboy restaurant on the corner, before heading to Bryce. Good viddles!
I totally have to give a thumbs up to Utah. We love all the beautiful parks, and views at different times of the day in Utah. Now getting the milkyway shot would be the cats meow!!!
I'm a little late. But I'm still here. Great video 📹 👍.
Thank you so much for including ADA information. Much appreciate it
Red canyons, blue skies and sunshine, I'm ready for winter to be over. Thanks for the dream.
Speaking of dry camping. Have you seen the snow at Mammoth? Predicting a few more feet and skiable snow all summer. You picked the right year to get stranded at Lee Vining. Tioga Pass is going to be real late in opening.
Bryce….someday!
Hopefully someday soon 🤞🙏
Beautiful locations and thank you for the boondocking tips 👍
Bryce is amazing and we hope you found it helpful!
Such a beautiful area!
So miss our time there. We missed you by a few days. Such an amazing area.
You guys have the best photography
Very great pictures and video
Just spectacular ❤
Definitely a good word for Bryce 😊
Wow. Thanks for sharing the majesty of our precious nation. America is truly beautiful.
No sandals in the canyon. Thank you for showing how you parked the RV. Helpful for others on how to go round corners and not to take out a wall.
Thank you for another video full of incredible photography and video, as well as helpful information and NP tips!! :)
I was lucky enough to take a helicopter ride over Bryce absolutely beautiful.
Oh wow, I bet that was incredible!
Another spectacular video! What a fantastic campsite.
@14:23 Corey in shorts and Jessie in a stocking cap 😂 How cold was it there.
Beautiful work folks!
It was like 34 in the mornings 🥶 I’m a dedicated flip flopper 😂
Bryce Canyon is one of our favorite NP’s. It is totally underrated and has some beautiful hikes. We can’t wait to go back. Great video!
I love Bryce so much. It’s my favorite national park.
Great tips and Beautiful Skies!! Thank you for sharing ❤️
Thank you for watching. Clear skies are great but throw a few clouds in there and I’m sold 😃
You travel to places I may not be able to visit for quite some time. I’m super excited to see more of Bryce, next week.
We did Bryce in March, 2022. We were camped in Hurricane, Utah, outside of Zion. Zion was 68° . We went through the tunnel and got to Bryce it was 27° and 30 mph winds with about a foot of snow. We checked out the overlooks but didn't hike. Some brave souls were. They were having a time of it. 1 step forward and slide 3 steps back. We are planning to go back (in warmer weather, lol) so we can really enjoy it.
My husband and I just found you guys on TH-cam and love watching! Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you found us! Thanks for taking the time to say hey! Have a great night
PS we just post the follow up to this video 😃
Beautiful site
Thank you for sharing.
We always love your videos
Thanks guys! I hope you guys are not still freezing up north! We’re definitely enjoying your Florida sun 😎
@@FindingOurSomeday 😂 we already back in south Fla. Enjoying our sunshine ☀️
Personally I liked Bryce Canyon better then the Grand Canyon I loved the colors and views.
We loved the video and as usual it never disappoints with the wonderful photography that you provide.
In one of your past videos you talked about replacing your GMG. You made the comment that you would choose another brand but at the time there wasn’t any other choice available. Will you share with me what unit you would have liked to have purchased. Thanks.
I appreciate the compliment, thank you 🙏 we’re still rocking the GMG Davey Crockett, they changed the design to it and it’s now called the Trek. It’s no longer as portable with the new design ( too tall now for “our” needs) the only one I’m considering replacing it with is the Camp Chef Pursuit. It’s a little bit bigger though and harder to set up. I wish they still made the GMG Davey Crockett.
Just love the colors of Bryce canyon. We hope to visit there sometime 2023.
I hope you’re able to as well , the deep orange in the mornings is incredible!
We love you guys! There is my comment :)
I have never been to Bryce. It is totally on my bucket list when I am able to RV Full Time in a couple of years. I can hardly wait. Safe Travels!!
You'll love it, the area between Bryce, Zion, and the north rim of the Grand Canyon is probably the most awe inspiring corner of this great nation, the only places of comparable concentrated beauty I can think of are Yellowstone/Tetons and the white mountains of NH.
Very nice video. Thanks
Thank you 🙏 We enjoyed our time there, glad to hear it translated to the video. I’m really looking forward to editing next weeks video from there!
