Baviaans Ep2 Heavy Rain & Locust Swarms in The Karoo. Camping, 4x4, Offroad ROAM Overlanding

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 พ.ค. 2022
- The adventure begins, The Bushtech Landcruiser 79 Series and its beautiful new Tray and Canopy are all packed up, my Hilux with fresh drawersystem, Redarc Redvision and new Garmin Tread XL Overland edition are all online and ready to take us on an epic adventure! Our first destination, Gariep Dam where we would sleep for the night before making our way into the Baviaanskloof the next day. We would wake up in a down pour and put our eeziawn awnings to the test. A stunning drive awaited us as we made our way through Graaff Reniet, where soon after the Karoo would be taken over by swarms of brown locusts, which would follow us our entire trip into the Baviaanskloof! Making our way through the spectacular Nuwekloof pass, we arrived just after sunset at our bush camp at the Uitspan Guestfarm.

Awesome video. Show's you how many pretty places we have in SA. No need to grab the passports every time and head for the borders.
So true!
Where is the Isuzu. Cant wait to see it roaming with you guys
@@jacquesD4D It's coming along well; I will update soon.
Roam overlanding great expert knowledgeable team all videos 4x4 series I enjoyed well done .
Wonderful scenic views
Was hoping uncle’s Nissan and short shorts were going to make an appearance this video! Haha brilliant stuff as always mate.
That’s what it’s all about good people, good food and seeing the splendour of what our beautiful country has to offer.
The nice scenery is similar to the Kimberley and Pilbara In West Aust. Probably connected during te Gondwana period. Thanks for the show mate.
Enjoyed the video raining. Seems as if this is the new fashion - all of us making videos of camping in the rain...😆
😂😂
Loving being part of the journey
LOVE IT
Brilliant video boet camping in the rain I enjoyed it
Hi from New Zealand. Great trip looks fantastic and great to be doing this with friends, introduce us to your team.
Amazing... love it
I can see in Roelfie's face...the Land Cruiser 70 bug has bitten!!! I see a double cab 79 series in his future!
Hahah! Absolutely!
You did great job capturing the mountains the kloof. They are massive not easy to show on camera, the twisty bits of the road my favorite bits. A cruiser is at home on these roads
Thanks for another epic video!
Can't wait for the next episode.
I can't get over the colour of that Hilux...man, it is wicked!! 😎
I just found your channel and have been binge watching over the last few weeks.. THANK YOU for sharing your trips!!! (and y'all eat so much ice cream I had to have some and we ran out at home over the holidays!!!)
Hahah! Thank you so much! 😋 now you made me want more ice cream! 😂🤣
@@RoamOverlanding
Well, now I have to stop and get a magnum! I was surprised to see that even in the sleepy little country town that I live in in Ohio, we basically have the same ice cream choices that you show in South Africa!!!
Amazing video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for sharing bro. Epic content as usual
Epic adventure.Thanks for sharing
Awesome video mate!! Highly enjoyed this one🤟🔥
Glad you enjoyed
Good episode. enjoyed in thoroughly. keep them coming. ✌
Amazing video. This is on my bucket list!!!! But I need to first kit out my Grand vitara. Like a dual batt system, proper drawer system etc…
Awesome video. Thank You.
You know, You gave me an inspiration. There is so many places to see and enjoy - with all the senses wide open ;-).
There is almost a year and a half that I'm subscribed to Your channel. It made me realize that the change in life is needed. So I've decided to came closer to the nature. The city life is comfortable but when I'm out the nature brings everything on its place. And one thing is watching on TH-cam, TV but totaly different is to go out to explore and enjoy.
I have great Outwell tent for five person and all the gear that we need for weekend camping trip and place it into my Hilux.
I'm waiting school to finish so my family, especially kids h dog can explore nature life here in Croatia.
Although a small country also we have great places to see (not only the Adriatic coast)..
That sounds awesome! All you need is some diesel in the tank and the hunger for adventure! 🤟🏻
Epic episode dankie Adrian dat ons saam julle ry en toer mooi loop
It’s an absolute pleasure 🙏🏻
Your episode are so nice, like your adventures, your campsites are so natural
Looks like an exciting adventure ahead. It's always great travelling with fantastic friends. It makes the memories ever more precious.
Definitely!
Great shots , amazing locations ... thanks man, love the channel
Your series are always very thought out and edited well. I look forward to next week. Thanks for the hard work on this.
❤️
What a great video, can't wait to see the places you guys have been, we also went through the baviaans over easter weekend! We also stayed at uitspan for 2 nights and enjoyed every moment of it!
Baie cool vid!
Looking forward to following on this adventure. I'd be good to know who's actually on the trip.
It’s Roelf’s mom and dad on the white Hilux and him and his fiancé in the cruiser; then myself and Andy in my bakkie 👌🏻
Osam man
So good to be joining you on what already has been an amazing adventure. Stunning scenery, along the way. That was some hectic rain and holy cow, I've never seen so many locusts....
Good to see you around! Glad you’re enjoying it! 🤓
I hate watching these vids and adventures.... they always cause war between my wife and i.... But on a serious note, Adrian and the crew from Roam Overlanding, thank you for the amazing content and showing us all these places in our backyard we didnt know about....
Question: from whom or where can i get airlockers for my bakkie??
hahaha! Well I am glad you can enjoy it in between the hate! :D
That was brilliant excellent show the and the most lovely vehicles ever in this world wish I can bu one of these vehicles 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great vid as always mate. How do like them General Grabbers by the way?
Theyve been great! excellent on road, and more than good enough offroad. Been through some tough stuff with them. Bare in mind they are the XL version of the tire so a bit more beefed up.
We are now back to the epic vidz! The Namibia one was so fast we didn't really see enough :( This looks really good! One quick question, those rear view mirrors on the Cruiser, what are they called and where can I get them?
I believe they are from Onca 4x4 👌🏻 a bracket to space them out nicely
Another brilliant video Adrian. So many great places in SA to visit. On my last trip to the Cape on the GSA I was hit with a massive rain storm At Gariep also. An hour before I had locals complaining about the drought 😂 No awning on the bike and no umbrella. Was pretty miserable 😂
Eina! No awning in that rain would make me very upset 😂
@@RoamOverlanding 😂 the only dry spot was under my chops on the braai 😂
i had a 2020 hilux, sold it an now have a 79, best bucky u will ever have. doesnt compare to hilux!
how's it guys. I've done the baviaanskloof a few time and loved it everytime. not the place to drive if you afraid of heights. it's a long way down some of those passes if you make a mistake. hope you enjoyed it.
It was absolutely awesome! Can’t wait to share it all with you 👌🏻👌🏻
@@RoamOverlanding enjoy look forward to seeing the way you guys took through and where you come out. Patensie/gamtoos valley also stunning from the top of the mountain.
🤙👍
Great videos as always!! And about your uncle’s truck? When going to be done? Tks
I’ve done that route from Jhb to George twice recently. 27th March and also through multiple locust swarms,passing that small dam on the right as you come through the pass. Would you believe two months later, it’s empty😩
Nice rainy weather, enjoy, how is the Isuzu build going?
The isuzu has had some hiccups but it's coming along well! Will have an update soon!
Great first episode. Good luck to the guys doing the low carb approach (I assume). Given it’s a bunch of Saffers and the world ‘diet’ was mentioned, I wasn’t surprised when steaks still popped up on the menu :) If beers are off the menu, does this mean that brandy also made an appearance?
Hahah Chris! No booze on the whole trip; we took 1 six pack of beers for if we got to a particularly epic spot 😂
I don't remember locust swarms invading this Country so badly in the past , talking about thirty , forty years ago
Maybe I'm wrong .
It’s been particularly bad. I think because we had some serious droughts the past couple of years, people have been skimping on the locust control and now with the heavy rains recently they have just gone crazy
Love the video's what cellphone holder are you using?
Thanks! It’s the Ram amount phone holder 👌🏻
Beautiful video. How did you plan your booking, on various camps ?
I call ahead and book; if it’s in Botswana or Namibia I deal with a company called Ultimate routes who help me with the bookings
Hi Adrian we got our vehicles about the same time. I’m interested to know what mileage you have put on since purchase.
I've done around 40k I think
Is it just not safe to camp out in the bush? Is it people? I have just always found it strange Africa has all this land and people always stay in campsites. Thanks.
It’s actually illegal to wild here; people do it and no one will fine you or anything but it’s really just for emergencies to wild camp. It’s better obviously to support the local areas and business’s, wild camping barely contributes to the local communities as we bring in all our own supplies etc. So it’s just a thing In SA to mainly stay in camps, but later in the trip you’ll see some beautiful wild spots 👌🏻
