Exploring Landers Campground in Wheldon Ca through Jawbone Canyon

- I take an adventure back to Sequoia Nation Forest to the Landers Campground near Wheldon California. The channel “Have Kids Will Explore” recently made a trip up there and it inspired me to yet again point the truck toward the mounts and take a route that I’ve never taken before through Jawbone Canyon.

Great videos
Thanks for watching them Jorge. This channel doesn’t get much view but really enjoy making this type of content
Appreciate the plugs you gave me. There’s a cool overland supply store near you called AV Overland Supply. If you like all the gadgets and gear, it’s a fun store to visit. They’re near the fairgrounds.
Wow I didn't even know that place was there. I was thinking about heading to a 4wheelparts in either Bakersfield or down below - will have to check that place out! Yeah no worries on the shout out - you really have been helping me find new exciting places! I was worried I made that video a little too long but seemed to flow ok.
@@dustyroaddestinations The video flowed great. You took a very different route in. Glad you saw Kelso Valley, that valley looked so peaceful.
@@havekidswillexplore Thanks so much for the feedback! I think on my way down I went the route you did - what 580/589 - that was a much more difficult way to go compared to my way up. Yeah Kelso Valley was really amazing - I just love that vast expanse and how quiet it was. You're going to have to head out someplace new and post the video so I can setup my next destination!!! LOL
Awesome gear man 👍
Thanks so much Irishammer! Thanks for watching!
I use moving blankets in my tent too. Lol
They work really well. I got those from Film Tools, they are more sound blankets. Basically they don’t have that moving blanket smell. I need two more to cover that floor though.
Awesome video man! Loved the story telling and the area. It looks a lot like the northern province in ZA. When you sleep in the tent do you hear the wildlife at night?
Thanks so much! Although this was a longer video I thought the pacing worked. You know, if my hearing wasn't crap maybe I would hear something. This isn't bear area so there aren't many larger critters out there. I've ordered some "toe warmers" so maybe *next time* I'll be able to combat the cold!
So Happy for you Duane : ) Great to get out & about ... Hubby & I went for a long car ride last weekend, stopped for lunch & enjoyed sitting outside to eat it ... not much noise nor people. What a Beautiful place [camp area] you stayed at, so Tranquil, Quiet etc ~ Gorgeous drive [footage] you showed on your way there etc ... sorry to hear your night wasn't the best but nice to have a visitor for the evening to chat with ! What time (seasons) of year do the snakes come out ? Thank-you for sharing : ) HAGN
Sounds like an outstanding trip you guys had!!! Yeah the night was really weird. It was cool to sit down and have a long chat with Chris. It was cool to swap stories and hear about his life. Right now is starting to be snake season so will definitely have to keep my eyes peeled going forward. Thanks so much for checking it out! Much appreciated
Hi, thanks for sharing the video. My group is heading there next weekend and your video really helped me a lot to prepare ahead. ^^*
Outstanding! I hope you all have a great time!
Could you share how the weather is up there and how your trip goes???
1:15 although we haven’t spoken for a while I’m very happy to hear my influence 😄
We definitely need to catch up. Things have been busy around here!
@@dustyroaddestinations things have been £uc’t around here… a bit later this eve my time? Getting better though…
Absolutely!
That was hilarious. I still don’t know why I said it that way!
@@dustyroaddestinations you say tomayto and I say tomahto 😄
Some of the best trips are the ones you take without an agenda. Even if you forget something like firewood, lol. It's become a recurring theme in my videos. What did I forget this time? Great video. Love the desert scenery and vlog-style. That campsite was an awesome choice. Keep it up! PS... is that a Springbar tent?
Yeah I agree with you. Having only a rough idea is kinda fun and honestly that is normally the way I’ve been going. With close trips it’s less risky because you can always just turn around and head home. Disperse camping helps because you can normally find a spot to park/sleep for the night - even if it isn’t the best spot. It’s funny you ask about the tent, I was trying to remember that brand when I was talking to the guy. No mine is a Kodiak Canvas Flexbow. I didn’t know about SpringBar when I found mine. Thanks so much for the support Steve!
The cut off is not faster. But if you can start in lake Isabela it is much, much faster
Excellent point! Had I just stayed on the other route it would have been faster - but I was wrong - the other part is NOT paved. This is one of my close/favor places to go!
@@dustyroaddestinations once you passed Sageland and you’re on the paved road it’s 20 minutes to the 178 at Lake Isabella.
@@FBCTrona yeah but I'm coming from the AV side so it would take longer. HOWEVER if I went 14 toward Ridgecrest, then 178 toward Lake Isabella and THEN take that left on Kelso Canyon that would be paved all the way up. It's been a few months since I've been up there - I think this weekend just might be a perfect time to return!
@@dustyroaddestinations got you! There is also a route from the Tehachapi area through Kelso. Not sure if it would be faster
@@dustyroaddestinations I just came back from there yesterday. The days are roughly 70°. The nights are about 40°. It was beautiful. We also did some exploring higher up into the mountains and got up into the snow. Great time did not see a soul at the campground the entire time we were there. The flowers are incredible right now.
Sir what sleeping pad was that it looks comfortable as heck!. Also what spikes are those that you used with the drill?
It's the Thermarest MondoKing amzn.to/3cxc6zR - it's pricy but it is REALLY comfortable. I'm using lag bolts with washers. I have to say the lag bolts and impact drill have been a complete game changer.
Can you get up there without 4 wheel drive?
Absolutely. I wouldn’t take the detour because the sand was pretty soft but I don’t think I needed 4wd throughout the trip. You thinking of heading out that way???
@@dustyroaddestinations yup!
Outstanding! If you want to minimize the dirt roads go that Isabella route. I think it’s payment all the way to that dirt road that goes up Piute mountain. If you’re taking a car that doesn’t have much ground clearance I wasn’t paying that much attention. I’m not sure I would take my Volkswagen Jetta all the way up there.
@@dustyroaddestinations thanks that was my next question!
Let me know how it goes for you! OR if you find another good place please share!
