OMG that place is stunning...!!!!
Love watching your little van just plodding along taking it all in its stride....that's what VW van life is all about..... escapism.....
Living the dream there Larry.....
🤙🙏🤙
Thanks Bob! I like the desert to pine tree outings. 🙂✌️🚎🏕
Such an EPIC video, even better the second time we watched it (and thanks for the shout out!) I’m planning on doing this one on my dirt bike next week. I’ve hit a few areas I’ve seen in your videos, can’t thank you enough for making these!!!
Your going to love the ride up through Goler Canyon, Mengel Pass is all boulders. Gas in Trona (Reg. Only) be safe my friend. 🏜️☮️
Great video,,we have been in the wash many times in 4x4's,,,not in our 68 camp mobile!,,,we love it!,,restoring dad's old bus he bought new in 68,,, good job,!
Thanks, It’s a beautiful canyon! That’s cool 😎 your restoring “Pops” early Bay. Still in the family since 1968! Got to love it! 🙂🤙
what a beautiful drive. who doesn't love Death Valley! would love to have drives without music though that way it really feels like your there. Love'n the BUS!
Really nice! I can smell the sage brush, taste the dust and hear the silence.
You lived it! 🙂 I’m all smiles right now. Don’t forget the Views! 🍻
Thanks.. good meeting you and the bus last Friday in Sawtooth.. jeff
You too, Good Talk!
BTW - Mengel Pass is nasty... LoL
Man, I am subscribed and have the notification bell on and I still don't get you in my feed. I make a point to check for new videos though because you're putting out great content! Keep it up!
Thanks for watching! I heard that from a few people, Not sure if it's on my end??
Absolutely beautiful scenery! Well done Larry. So close but it’s good you know when to throw in the towel.
Thanks Mike! It’s a great canyon to explore, I’ll be going back there again. 😬
Hi Larry. I started watching this episode yesterday, but had to go to work so finished watching now. It was worth the wait! In those closed in canyons, I thought it a perfect place for an ambush on a Saturday morning western serial. Question; What is that canister on the right side rear of the roof? Is it something you would deem worthy of a tech video on? Ok, that was two questions. have a good evening.
That maybe a good video, The Blue Box thing… 🙂 Wednesdays Video!
How it is that you don’t have more views I have no idea. SUPER nice content. Like another commenter on this video, I don’t receive bell notifications either
I appreciate that! It's fun bringing folks along for a ride. If 1 or 100? It doesn't matter. Smiles all the way around!!! You should receive notifications now. For the first six months, I forgot to check the notification box.
Stunning views! You're really out there! Love this vid and the exterior shots of the bus on the challenging stuff, so the end segments are a real treat (I do miss your commentary tho!). Really great stuff. I have some questions, if you don't mind :) 1. Were there any parts of this road you felt were a little too challenging? 2. when you're tapping on your ceiling mounted phone, whatcha doin (no way you're getting service out there, right? :D ) 3. How long would you say the trail takes to complete (few hours?)
I miss the talking also. Guessing, It could be the hero 7 inside camera. Scratching and popping to nothing than back working??? Ok question #1, Challenging trail | It's all pretty challenging when your in a VW Bus that was built in 1958. I don't have a chase vehicle, it's a solo remote adventure. So, I watched TH-cam videos to gauge if it's doable. @ 18:29 you can see tire tracks on the dirt outside the window, nasty angle. Look at my body language. crazy. Ok question #2, I use Gaia GPS @gaiagps and view the downloaded the area maps I made earlier. I wanted to spend the night at Barkers Ranch and do Supper and a night shot of the surrounding area (Mansonville) but the late summer monsoons had Goler Wash Rd. washed out. So I went to the top of Mengel Pass instead. | Time wise question #3 the trail/road was 8hrs and the whole outing was Thursday to Sunday. As for the trail, I left Ballarat at 11am and got back to Ballarat at 7pm. Camped, ate and slept. Drove home on Sunday. No trailers, Drove the Bus home 55mph with a 40mph side gust. Got home around 3/4pm Sunday. Little over 300 miles. Equals a Crazy Vintage Overland Adventures.
Yes! We thoroughly enjoyed this one, the music too! You were out 8hrs here and 300 miles for a four day weekend? Crazy!!! Thanks so much for posting these videos of your adventures, much appreciated!!!
Another great video Larry. Livin’ the dream…
@@VintageOverlandAdventures Great stuff! Thanks for answering all my questions lol. That's up there. I'd unfortunately have to trailer the Willys no matter where I go. It'll be central Los Angeles soon and freeways will definitely be a no-go. Loved every second of this vid and am totally looking forward to more!
what month did you do this? A few friends of our went in january 2023 last month and one section over the pass was pretty rough and not passable without high clearance
September or the beginning of October.
Love it when you pass $50K 8mpg 4x4 rigs with proud millennials making $600 monthly payments...
😂 Rookie! No reply… I think 50k is a little lite! 🤣
