- In episode 142 of Truck House Life, I meet an internet friend / fellow inspirational TH-camr (Brian of Off-Grid Backcountry Adventures on TH-cam)... then we'll take you camping at an awesome campsite in the high mountains of Colorado. The catch... a sketchy, narrow, steep and exposed 4x4 trail down to the campsite.

I love this channel. No BS, no badly hidden gear sponsor clips. Just focus on the adventure and the scenery.
Thanks man, yup try to keep it real lol.
Well, to be honest, Sierra is the star of my channel so she's the famous one! I'm just here to make sure she is comfortable and has plenty of treat options available. Had a great time hanging out, your set up is incredible! I've been eyeing full size trucks ever since I got back to AZ - I'd love to have another rig with a custom cabin on the back with a bit more room to stretch out. I was floored at how much attention you got every time we stopped, that cabin really makes people stop and take note! This was an awesome video, look forward to watching your next upload about Colorado. ~ Brian
I feel the same way about my dog, bryan! Hahaha. Love both you guys' videos.
My camping buddy got adopted. I need to foster another one ASAP 😁
lol you're right man;) Awesome rolling with you those weeks!
I follow Brian and his dog Sierra, great channel Sierra is an absolutely sweetie
Brian...happy to see Sierra is looking so great from her surgery.
I love the sound of the diesel when it’s idling during your drive on the narrow track! 😄
me too
Same here
My favorite truck on the internet taking narrow deep back trails for ultimate camping adventures. Thanks Timmy 🤙
haha
Love from India 🇮🇳🤗🤗
Yee Yee from NZ
Timmy thanks so much for taking me along.So many cool adventures with you to come.Disabling rare muscle disease has taken me out of the woods for now☮️
That's one of the big reasons I share these adventures, whole bunch of good ones coming up from the road trip! Hope you still get yourself out there a little bit;)
I love how Sierra just made herself at home on your couch!
Ive just discovered you December 2023
And i think its a blast that you are friends with and have Brian on your chanel.
Ive followed him as well.
Much admiration to you guys , for living the nomadic lifestyle
Brian's awesome!
I wish they would make a hot wheels version of your truck! That would be so awesome!
Lego version complete with a tiny plastic yellow skinned Timmy. 👍👍
right haha?!
That road was so bad I thought your house was going to tip over. I'm in SW Ohio, almost 70, but I like watching these videos. I never really thought about this lifestyle. When I used to see RV's on the road I just thought it was for expensive vacations.
lol
Holy moley, that's a seat edger. It's better than an action movie.
Man Timmy, your a champ driving the old blue.
I love the sound he makes...
Great video👍
lol thanks:)
Once again, I was biting my nails during that whole drive in. You’ve got rad skills. Awesome video! Can’t wait for the next one. And Sierra definitely is the sweetest. She kinda stole the show ☺️
Yup sketchy trail down, of course video never does any justice whatsoever.
Your Music is always killer!!! The 350 looks so sick sluggin’ down old roads…love the big girl
Thanks man
You definitely trimmin’ trees 🌲🌳 getting in there 👍I’m impressed 😎
It’s just gnarly with the house on back, stupid trees! I found myself holding my breath a couple times. lol
lol
The places this truck has been, is Incredible. I'm not sure anyone but Timmy could pull this off.
just wait lol
@@TruckHouseLife Heard that. Looking forward to it
hello from the philippines. we love your truck house sir. Stay safe on the road.
Right on! will do!
Heading up the ol’ 550
yup!
An absolute masterpiece. Loved the Adrenaline of watching that huge truck head down that trail head. Adrenaline Falls or Adrenaline Balls, completely describes it. Lucky you had good friends along on the trip! Just in case the Truck House got stuck.
Thanks!
Every time you say “what’s crappenen” I giggle 😂
lol you caught that
This is so cool! I don't know why I clicked lol. Cool home and will be following y'all and your adventures!!! Happy and safe travels 💜
Welcome to the show haha!
It's my lucky day to have reconnected to Brian and Sierra. Great video
Thanks!
Binge watching this Totally Awesome Truck House Life You Tube channel. Exhilarating, Adrenaline rushing, Nature never disappoints, nor you. Thank you Timmy!🤘Happy Trails 🏜️
Of course and thank you!
Cool video. Ill have to join his page. I saw a video of his a while back, max space efficiency. Making me want a van. And 4x4. lol.
Get one!
Damn I was so homesick. Wish I was there. Thanks.
haha
Man, I'm falling in love with your truck with how dependable it is & the places Old Blue can take you. I tried to think of which TH-camr from Alaska I like better but couldn't think of anyone, so keep doing what you're doing because it's working.
Yup, ironically working on the breakdown episodes now;) lol
2 of my favorite overland TH-camrs together what a great vid
Thanks man
What an absolute killer place to camp!! Nobody's going to bother you back there!! Is it hard flying the done while driving?!?
I've lived in central texas my whole life but i still recognize that area as my second favorite place to be. Absolutely beautiful scenery, fun driving whether on pavement or off, nice people and nicer weather than where im from. This struck a chord in my heart.
It's cool out there for sure!
This one had me literally holding my breath!
lol
Go live on a regular basis... like a state of truck house life things, could even have guests on when permitting. You can interact with us more, avoid hours of editing, get instant feedback on any questions you have for us and vice versa, receive donations, etc...would love something like that. 👍🏾
hmmm...
Luv the "camp set-up" tutorial portion of the vid - all 3 seconds of it :>)
It is so awesome to see my favorite you,-tubers combined in one video.
You'll really like Wednesdays video then...
Smoke stack whirly gig can take a beating. Awesome spot there. Great video.
I noticed that too..lol
hehe
I met Brian a few years ago at Vagabond cafe in Wichita. He had just bought materials to build the slideout for his truck camper. Cool dude!
Yup he's fun!
Another Great Video Timmy, it is enjoyable to watch after another 600 miles on the road in my Semi with my dog “ Brody” 👍🏻
Thanks and cya out there man!
This is a beautiful area. I camped Lime Creek Rd in June. Hiked to Poatoe Lake. Did it in a Rav 4 and came up Lime Creek from the southern entrance off 550. It was a rough go!!
Yup gorgeous out there!
That was an awesome watch Timmy 👍 Your certainly putting old blue through its paces. Keep on truckin
Thanks 👍
Hey Timmy. Just watching some of your old videos. Waiting for more cabin builds. Keep um coming.
Timmy, look into getting a lockout switch for your transmission. Then you can access your low gears in 2wd. I use that a lot on trails such as these where there is plenty of traction in 2wd, but going so slow puts a lot of stress on the torque converter and transmission. It's usually really cheap, too. Got mine installed on my '17 ram for about $300.
hmmm...
He's got it...just don't lock the front hubs.
What an epic camping spot !!!
right?!
I'm going to set up camp and now it set up lmao and that a beautiful camping spot Awesome love it. From fairbanks Ak.
lol
Great video! Thumbs up. I've a new place to see for my bucket list.
nice!
Thanks nice camping spot 👍

That was quite he adventure 👍
Sure was!
Love you and Brian’s channels give Em a follow folks!

Love it!! And I got a good laugh with your blow by blow of how you set up camp, classic. There's beauty in all the wild of Colorado, used to live in Leadville, love the Silverton area too. Thanks again for your beautiful drone shots, Timmah 😊
lol yup couldn't be any easier to set up camp;). Gorgeous area out there!
Nice
TIMMY 2021 - Could be weird or could be awesome!
Twill be both!
Watch your chimney stack on the way back out!
(next video I take care of that problem;)
Love this! Your rig is awesome! And dude.. that bacon 🥓🤤
Thanks haha, the bacon was ridiculous!
Image driving on this road in the middle of the night or foggy day /night?🤔😮
Crazy!😥
Yup would be sketchy.
🇬🇧🏴🤘🤠catching up on ya video s on the big screen Timmy truck looks great Epic footage as usual my friend good to do some Trail Treading with likeminded people 👏🇺🇸🚣🏼♀️nice drone footage and set up 🙏
Nice, good luck;)
Love it
Thanks!
The shots of the night sky in this video, made me wonder if you have ever seen any strange ariel sightings during your travels? As always, a great adventure with a hair raising ride to camp!
yup!
It's amazing how well Sierra has recovered.
yup!
Beautiful camping spot wow
right?!
I would say that you "shoe horned" that cabin to the spot!
Suggestion: to reduce chances of tree damage....
considered putting a (cb antenna type?) quick disconnect on each side of the front bumper. Then have fiberglass poles the height of the cabin. Possibly angled outward to about the cabin eaves because that is wider than the truck. Instead of fiberglass, maybe old surf fishing poles?
Or, cameras on the eves to watch?
Enjoying the episodes! Hope to be making my own similar adventures next year.
hehe
I havent been down to Durango in YEARS! DAMN its still beautiful! I want to go!! haha! This Cheered me up for a while THANKS GUYS! I am also Subbed on Brians Channel! OUT LIFE IS AWESOME! I soon will be one as well!! BITCHIN VIDEO!! SAVED!!
Thanks haha, you'll prob like wendesdays video;)
I would have liked to see you get back out but I’m assuming it was a breeze for you. Safe travels!
Dang I wish I knew you were in Durango I live in Aztec NM it 30 minutes away. I would of been cool to meet you.
nice haha
Holy smokes I'm early. Here comes the Colorado footage hell yeah !
ohhh it's comin...
Well I'm glad you fixed the hole in your pants 😂 oh and nice view.
Good driving
The ride to the camping spot was nerve-wrecking to watch even. At any moment I expected the truck to tip over, the cabin to be ripped out of the sockets by shear forces or the chimney ripped of by branches 😯. Next time Brian says he "knows a spot" you'll know what you need (life) insurance 😅
Just wait haha...
Chimney swinging around like it's a satellite looking for signal. :D
Gonna be in Quartzite, AZ off an on for the next couple months panning for Gold, if you’re in the area you should pop by for a what’s up.
P.S.- your channel still rules
Nice! thanks!
I just can’t imagine how any of the nails, furring strips, panels and other wooden components don’t work their way loose after a short time from all the twisting and flexing of your little house on wheels?
It somehow has held up great lol.
You gotta get a dog Timmy. Pets are TH-cam gold 👍
A cute dog will double your subs……guaranteed
one day...
This was a banger
Thanks man, got some funny ones coming up this week...
I want to see you get out of there...
wait for it;)
Do you have place in front for a Electric fan. Good blower. Help cool your engine. Or a good quality antifreeze. "Just my thoughts". Another cool video. Regards
One on the motor already;)
fire brotha
your camper is like a nipa hut from philippines❤
hahaha!
Were you headed southbound on the glen saturday 10/30 around noon?
Nope, trucks in AZ still;)
Tried that other channel a while back and it was like watching animal planet. Dog got more camera time than my preference could tolerate.
lol, yeah his dogs having a ruff time right meow, so he's giving her some extra attention.
1200……..that’s glowing…….🤪.
lol
Emergency air conditioner, run a tube from the truck air con vent into the camper. High BTUs will do the job
No sleep walking with that scarey cliff right there! yikes
Amazing 4W driving, Timmy!
But.
How many degrees can that flatbed tip sideways, until the weight of the cabin tips it over?
not sure? lol
Speaking of axe murders the place you guy camped . In that valley I won't blow up the area but murders happened there in the 70's . I think we camp up higher. Not that valley you guys went to. Later met you in Silverton.
There wasn’t a campsite in the 70s that didn’t have axe murderers😁
@@zefallafez right...lol
Should have given a tour of the other guy's setup.
there's a couple out there already;)
Cool spot....you got rear air bags on your rig?
Sure was! Nope, I removed them and put good lift springs on.
That's steak bacon!
