As a single female who car camps solo all over the place in Colorado, I appreciated you being honest about how intimidating it can be out there alone sometimes...I feel so silly getting the heebiejeebies as soon as it's dark out so it's nice to know it happens to experienced dudes too and I'm not just being a wimp! lol
I am 61 years old and done this my whole life. I am alone most of the time and yes it can be a little hair raising hearing crashing in the woods in the middle of the night but that's just part of it. No shame in it so good on you for getting out there.
I did my first solo camp in a Subaru. Must say I was a bit freaked out myself the first time, and even every now and then. My biggest fear is breaking down or getting stuck like that white SUV.
Nah, i don't agree...as we closer to winter....sprinter with insulation wall inside more comfort to him....we all want to see his best content everytime right? So more safety and comfort is priority for him...and it's all in his custom sprinter...
You clearly haven’t seen old westy drifting in the snow and surviving a blizzard. That’s how the Channel was brought up th-cam.com/video/Kj8LKZyw7Hs/w-d-xo.html watch from 1:00-2:00 min
As a compulsive puzzle and problem solver, watching you test the limits of the Sprinter and figure out/tweak what is needed for your journeys over different types of terrain is always so satisfying! And wow...could Colorado get any more gorgeous?!? 🤩
Chad, every video gets better when I think it couldn't get any better! You are the real authentic mountain man! Also so thoughtful with your appreciation of Mother Nature!
Hi Chad it is fantastic to see you I have missed your backcountry adventures. That downhill mountain biking was amazing and the bear was a bonus. I could never be able to do that but I sure enjoyed being along for your ride. I totally needed one of your videos man. Take care Chad.
Hi Chad. Thanks for posting the video. I said it before, and I'd like to say it again -- you can just record your camping every day, and many of us would love to watch it. It doesn't have to be anything special.👍👍
I was on the edge of my seat as you negotiated the undulations. That was some skillful driving there Chad...well done. As far as camping in bear country I am more fearful of "camping" in some urban settings as I travel cross country.
As a gal backpacker for decades I've never had any issue with bears. I keep clean, keep a meticulous campsite and have nothing in my small tent that is food, or has any fragrance (lotion, toothpaste, soap). everything gets packed in a proper sack and hung over a tree branch at night or when I'm away from camp, hiking or swimming. I rarely start a fire (unecessary except in an emergency) and use a small backpacking stove only. I also don't forage the hell out of my surroundings as the mushrooms and berries are food that is rightly THE BEAR'S!Being meticulous is key and the right thing to do!
The "silence" or to say it other way, just the sounds of nature around you while splitting the wood...that's ASMR for my ears man. There is nothing like being out there enjoying our home...our Planet, the wild...it's just healing for the soul
Chad, I really love the quality and expertise of your videos. Keep producing the great content that you do! You make me feel as though I am right there with you. Blessings ❤
Chad, I think this is your best video yet. Lots of different varying content. I liked the inclusion of wildlife and nature with the way the landscape was formed with avalanches. The music was very fitting and also very good to listen to. Who needs Pixar, Spielberg etc. This is just like a movie.I was glad to see you eating a bit more healthily with your quinoa and turmeric, have you been taking advice off Dr Micheal Greger ? And not an Italian Sausage to be seen !
Many have become youtubers and vloggers, but you are my idol. no matter how many times I watch your video, I still don't get bored, no matter how many times I upgrade my cell phone. I'm still looking for an idol because your idol videos really good #living the van life my favorite 😍😍 from the Philippines
That is one wild day u ride on bike and in the van oh man the bear wow quite a beast that is lol becareful of the trails whoo u made it wow go slower next time lol . Keep on truckin
…and again a beautiful peace of art on YT from the Man Chad. Incredible footage, you are a tough dude with BigBalls. 😂lol. I am an off road guy myself and I know it’s not easy to get the angles and steepness on camera. I can only imagine. I do that with a Rubicon and you do that with a Van?! Crazy but freaking cool. You are an inspiration over and over again. Stay Safe! Greetings Wolle from Sicily
Ah chad that was awesome, Great to see you out on the mountain bike again, Man those runs looked sick.. awesome footage of the bear, seriously cool man! And the sprinter performed effortlessly up over those mountain ranges, some serious articulation going on there and hill decent working nicely eh...Loved it. Peace out, keep on truckin ✌🏻
Wow! Great to see an episode without so much advertisement again(LTVL, sponsors, etc). Reformed subscriber here. Thanks Chad for bringing this channel back to what it was! Subscribed again.
It's amazing what you have done with the van, converting it into a vehicle comfortable not only to live but also tough enough to drive on any rough terrain 👍.
Geez Chad, my heart was pounding going down those hills on that bike & then your expert driving keeping your van upright - that was quite the adventure! Thank you so much - what fun for a grandma! There’s good reason I pray for your safety!! 😂 Great video ~ scenery was magnificent & scary under the van ~ great shots! Blessings & Safe/Happy Trails! Until next time! 😊🙏🏻
Try clear lake at silverton, colorado, at 11940 ft. I was there with 2017 sprinter 144 4x4, factory tires. A lot of loose rocks, switchbacks, up and down, and one ditch at the switchback made it almost tip over, like yours. Sprinter low range setting was a miracle, as long as you have the clearance, it will go places, not as a Wranger rock climbing but almost everywhere. I have AT tires now. My only tip for my high roof sprinter off road camper van is to reduce the gravity as much as you can, and unload all junks as much as you can, to lower its weight, then you'll have a capable penthouse overlander to help you enjoy the world.
Damn - that was a very exciting video ! -Walking out of the mountain forest in bear country ? (Wow, I hope they had an InReach or buddy vehicle). Be safe.
Good to see you using your purpose built rig off-road...not just a pavement princess like many 4x4 build vans. What kind of mpg do you get on highway with it lifted and AT tires?
That was a close call, Man. You needed that excellent steering movement at 43:27. It was a move of instinct, that's for sure. Years of offroading pay off there. Well done, great video. Peace ✌
Haha you sound like me with bears! Damn bears! But I go out anyways. I was just camping in Yellowstone in grizzly territory and I have a RTT. Always careful. And I have backpacked through black ear territory lots of times.
Chad, have you experienced anything unusual out in the wilderness? Have you heard noises, seen lights? Have you ever seen or heard the Hairy People in the woods? You get to lots of places that people have experienced them.
@@jonhunter8737 im from Scotland and we have the same loons talking about a monster in Loch Ness. I'm more about what I see is what I believe, but then why do so many people believe in a God ? Just shows you that there are many millions of intelligent people out there that believe in lots of nonsense.
@@frankiez7414 It's not all nonsense though. The amount of evidence for Sasquatch in countries across the globe, not just North America, is massive. Including DNA studies of hair samples. To call people loons is a bit harsh, especially if they have experienced something very much at odds with what we are taught in schools and universities. Did they ask for those experiences? Did they want them? Yet, they have to then live a life of hiding that, for fear of ridicule, or actually face ridicule if they do share their experiences, often from family members, that given any other topic, would accept the word of that person unequivocally. So, are they liars? Did they wake up and think, 'what kind of crazy shit can I come up with today, that will leave me a laughing stock and the town idiot if I talk about it?' Not particularly logical is it? Or perhaps, there are things we have evidence for, but are being supressed? Years ago, UFO were for lunatics. Yet, we now have the US finally admitting and releasing videos and documents that show these things are real.
How Awesome, a bear and a Melburnian on mtb trail!! Thanks Chad for sharing your adventures....from a Melburnian gal living the van life, currently in Tasmania....an Awesome life, cheers buddy
A Silky doesn't use any gas either, or electricity. I used mine to clear a way out after some serious hurricane damage in the Nova Scotia bush. A Katananoy 650 will outperform most chainsaws, in fact all chainsaws you would see in a van, and takes a fraction of the space and weight. A Katananoy 1000 would compete with professional forestry chainsaws.
Dude, that bike ride was so sick. Not to mention the bear sighting. However, I would have been wrapped around one of those trees almost immediately. Still very cool though. Thanks for sharing this experience.
Awesome ride through Colorado Chad - my 4500 mile road trip round the US in 2019 took me through some fantastic scenery .. I love reliving my experiences through your channel 🇬🇧
I’ve found when I want to see a bear, I don’t see a bear. When I don’t want to see a bear, I don’t see a bear. When I don’t care if I see a bear, I see a bear.
Glad you have that pistol with you! Protect yourself at all times. I love your videos bro! I’m from Canada, I don’t know the law in that state, thats pretty cool that you can carry it like that on sites!
I have a 170 ext, xd, 4x4. Its a cruiser, not a bruiser. I've taken it, on pavement, above 12,000 ft. and it performed without issue. Gotta' say Chad, you scare the bejesus out of me with that short bus. If I was with you on this back country adventure, I would have had to change my shorts a least a couple of times.
At the age of 79 I spent aloof year’s camping. One thing I can’t understand why, being the area you are in with resources you have, why are you wasting your time slithering all that wood when you have Squaw wood all around you which will save you time and works better than slivering that wood just saying.. Your trips are very exciting and offer many who don’t get out an travel To enjoy the scenery and live vicariously through you tubers. Thanks for sharing your life on the road.
This is why you need a dirt bike Chad! Then you can take all your filming stuff and hop on the bike and be up there to see the Sun rise! Instead of your MTB, replace with a small dirt bike on the hitch. Thank you for taking me along!! Well done Amigo!!
Amazing videography. You made me feel like an eagle, soaring through and around the mountains at sunset and the water fall/feature . Dinner looked yummy too!
Your way over talking about the bears and other animals at night. 99% is in your head. I’ve camp out over 50 year’s in the Colorado mountains. They don’t want u. They want your trash if u don’t keep a clean camp
Another great video! Did you film before Moab or after? I scrubbed thru your videos but didn’t find them anywhere, what clips are you using for the axe and hatchet on your back doors? Considering doing the same or similar.
There is another TH-cam channel that I watch, SUV RVing, that includes GPS coordinates for several interesting locations visited during the video. I wish you would do that in your videos.
Why would you wait until dark to cook your dinner? I would eat before dusk. Then, have some Bourbon by the fire (with a hand cannon close by). I would make sure no remnant of food smell would be left. Having a high powered (concentrated) beam of light on hand to illuminate any noises in the distance would be handy.
There are just as many bears in Calif, WA, and other states you have cooked up a feast. Just because you saw a BLACK BEAR doesn’t mean your chicken breast and quinoa is cause a bear attack.
Great video. Looked like Lincoln Creek Rd. Hope you stopped at the town of Independence just past there before the pass. Not much left of it but some folks from the Aspen Historical Society were trying to preserve what is left of it.

Nothing wimpy about being in the food chain and understanding you're not on top of it.
I am 61 years old and done this my whole life. I am alone most of the time and yes it can be a little hair raising hearing crashing in the woods in the middle of the night but that's just part of it. No shame in it so good on you for getting out there.
I did my first solo camp in a Subaru. Must say I was a bit freaked out myself the first time, and even every now and then. My biggest fear is breaking down or getting stuck like that white SUV.
Not crazy at all, I’m 52 and I get the jitters sometimes too.
Oh, yeah, not my first time having the hair standup on my arms. Good to have your senses on high alert, for sure! Smart to always listen to your gut.
Bring back the westfalia for a throwback episode !!!
I second thst notion
He’s gotten too comfy in the sprinter.:)
Bring back the vaseline cotton balls!
Nah, i don't agree...as we closer to winter....sprinter with insulation wall inside more comfort to him....we all want to see his best content everytime right? So more safety and comfort is priority for him...and it's all in his custom sprinter...
You clearly haven’t seen old westy drifting in the snow and surviving a blizzard. That’s how the Channel was brought up
th-cam.com/video/Kj8LKZyw7Hs/w-d-xo.html watch from 1:00-2:00 min
The drone shots and the way you set your shots and camera angles are outstanding!! Documentary worthy and all on your own!! Awesome work Chad’
YES totally outstanding 💯%
He’s not called the Bear Grylls of Van Living for nothing
Honestly, mountain biking is probably the best part of this type of lifestyle. Absolutely amazing!
Totally agree!
Not to mention that mountain bike would come in handy in the situation the 4 runner got into.
Please wear glasses when using your chainsaw. You only get one pair of eyes 👀
As a compulsive puzzle and problem solver, watching you test the limits of the Sprinter and figure out/tweak what is needed for your journeys over different types of terrain is always so satisfying! And wow...could Colorado get any more gorgeous?!? 🤩
Thanks, Ada May. Yes, I really enjoyed my time in Colorado. More to come!
I don’t know. It’s different now.
Thanks for the upload. Might re-watch the older videos.
Chad, every video gets better when I think it couldn't get any better! You are the real authentic mountain man! Also so thoughtful with your appreciation of Mother Nature!

Someone needs to take a rake to those washboards!
Awesome. It's pretty hard to get better than that . Sir, humble request to you, visit Death Valley, If possible. Thank you, Sir. Love from India.
Chad! So good to see you be safe and fun on your adventures! Love from South Carolina

I'm still looking for an idol because your idol videos really good #living the van life my favorite 😍😍 from the Philippines
He probably had a "brown moment" after seeing that bear in the beginning!!
Looking forward to this one 🍿
Who needs to watch TV when you producers such good videos and meals. It would be nice to have you on the history channel.
Simply awesome.
The winter season it's gonna be big fun with this van.
Keep on truckin' ✌
That's the plan!
That bear had epic timing-perfect filming 😍 That van is incredible-your skills are enviable👍💞
That is one wild day u ride on bike and in the van oh man the bear wow quite a beast that is lol becareful of the trails whoo u made it wow go slower next time lol . Keep on truckin
Another cinematic wonder, now with added bear attacks, biking, high-adrenalin cooking and sky-high off-roading! Awesome stuff Chad, mucho gracias!
…and again a beautiful peace of art on YT from the Man Chad. Incredible footage, you are a tough dude with BigBalls. 😂lol. I am an off road guy myself and I know it’s not easy to get the angles and steepness on camera. I can only imagine. I do that with a Rubicon and you do that with a Van?! Crazy but freaking cool.

Awesome adventure !!! The Monster Van is looking great too.
Fabulous video as usual but watching your tyres lifting as you were going down gave me butterflies.
That opening (bike portion) is badass. Did you have any kind of app running to track you and your speed etc.? Relive is a great free example.
38:45 i wonder what happened, it looks like there was enough room to be away from the edge, rory is closer than matt tho
Ah chad that was awesome, Great to see you out on the mountain bike again, Man those runs looked sick.. awesome footage of the bear, seriously cool man! And the sprinter performed effortlessly up over those mountain ranges, some serious articulation going on there and hill decent working nicely eh...Loved it. Peace out, keep on truckin ✌🏻
Thanks for watching!
This bear was like I'm just walking around you guys, no time for chip chat ta ta
Just one old scout/army tip: never stab the tip of the knife in the tree or stump
On a regular road at that high of altitude would the van still struggle a bit? If so why? Thanks in advance
Dang, man, you ride on par with some of the guys whose channel is just about mountain biking. I'm impressed 👏
Wow! Great to see an episode without so much advertisement again(LTVL, sponsors, etc). Reformed subscriber here. Thanks Chad for bringing this channel back to what it was! Subscribed again.

I love the way your videos flow so naturally and you have such a calming voice just like my other favourite TH-camr VANCITY VANLIFE
Really great representation of Colorado, Chad. Your footage is inspiring. Totally love it here!
Glad you enjoyed it!
She’s an absolute frickn unit Brotha ✊🏼🧐!! Awesome episode Chad & stunning views!!!! ✌️out…Keep on Trucking 👊🏼😎🤙🏼
Thanks, Mike! Cheers!
That 15min to like 22min how to make a fire would be a great video on its own. Really loving this adventure! Thanks
Damn - that was a very exciting video !
-Walking out of the mountain forest in bear country ? (Wow, I hope they had an InReach or buddy vehicle). Be safe.
Awesome as always Chad, you are one lucky guy love to be doing what you do! Keep on truckin' my friend!
Damn, that bear nearly spear tackled the other guy
Amazing what you are doing with your sprinter, respect for the shots and editing. Let's keep it up BRO!!!
I wasn’t worried about the van, just the camera on that steep decent. Great vid thanks for sharing!
Another awesome video Chad! I need to get over to the Snowmass bike park one of these days. Looked like a blast.
another awesome video!!! great videography!
Good to see you using your purpose built rig off-road...not just a pavement princess like many 4x4 build vans. What kind of mpg do you get on highway with it lifted and AT tires?
About 13-15 mpg, depending-
Great video chad really enjoyed it can’t wait for next one hope it will be a winter one next keep safe .
you go to some epic places! thanks for taking us along. you always have beautiful scenery.
Hi Chad, thanks for the great video as always. Glad to see you dropping more often. Be well and safe.
Even the minimalists in the U.S owns 7 pairs of shoes. 😂😂😂👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
That was a close call, Man. You needed that excellent steering movement at 43:27. It was a move of instinct, that's for sure. Years of offroading pay off there. Well done, great video. Peace ✌
20:00 is something you don’t ever see in a LTVL video.
Yeah, I was surprised. Wonder if he knows?
Great video Chad and beautiful scenery and great driving 🇺🇸👍🏻
Great vidio Chad. Really like the campfire cooking again and the off roading was rad!
Another amazing video chad you are one of the very best film makers on this platform can’t wait for the next one
that is freaking awesome. I want a Sptinter now!
Amazing,so professional footage ,definitely you are the best
Wow, thank you!
Chad can be next David attenborough with his own series 😎
Welcome back Chad. Love the video. Your rig looks so top heavy some of your shots scared me to death.
I've been waiting for this video for so long. Glad you enjoyed it out here!
Чад,как всегда всё очень здорово.Твои приключения отлично мотивируют. 👍
hello man ,what is the brand of your knife.
thank you of french
32:00 like you drove into a Bob Ross painting 😀
LOL
Inspirational 👍🏻
Haha you sound like me with bears! Damn bears! But I go out anyways. I was just camping in Yellowstone in grizzly territory and I have a RTT. Always careful. And I have backpacked through black ear territory lots of times.
Epic adventures await anyone willing to seek them out.
Chad, have you experienced anything unusual out in the wilderness? Have you heard noises, seen lights? Have you ever seen or heard the Hairy People in the woods?
You get to lots of places that people have experienced them.
one time Big Foot drove off in his van they found it in town at a Bar.😀
lay off the weed dude

Awesome ride through Colorado Chad - my 4500 mile road trip round the US in 2019 took me through some fantastic scenery .. I love reliving my experiences through your channel 🇬🇧
e dana tula jhau ka
It always blows my mind 🤔how you can drive and fly the drone at the same time !. another awesome video stay safe 🤙😎
the drone has a follow mode he just drives it follows.
I’ve found when I want to see a bear, I don’t see a bear. When I don’t want to see a bear, I don’t see a bear. When I don’t care if I see a bear, I see a bear.
Awesome video Chad. I often think of you when watching Matt's Off Road Recovery.
Fortunately I'v not had the pleasure of meeting Matt in person- Good folks.
Did you follow up and find out if they recovered the Tacoma? If it's still there I'll fly out there and get it....just kid'n of course.

Before we sold our house for full-time RV life, our house in Michigan was built in 1895. Standing strong!
Cool!
