Oh wow! Didnt realize how recent this was shot. I’m going in 2 weeks, and I’m so excited! I’m hoping things dry out enough to explore the elkhorn side. I think I have a local who’s gonna show me around. Thanks for the video! Great stuff as always.
@@fourwheeltravel coming from SF, my plan was to camp at Williams Hill Sunday, drive the rest of the way to Corrizo Monday. Camp in Corrizo and head back Tues. But seeing this, I think I may try to get down to Corrizo Sunday to get as much time there as I can fit.
@@Huffylives Right that'll add a couple hours to the drive, but there is definitely more to do at Carrizo. We're based right next to Williams Hill, but have not camped there, probably because it is so close to home. We drove 101 to Paso Robles and then took Creston Road to the 58 and then to Soda Lake Road.
@@fourwheeltravel gotcha. That makes sense! I’m thinking the same but stay on 58 down to Elkhorn. Any thoughts on that? That would take us in past Wallace Creek. I think there are some dispersed camp sites on the south end of the lake I may check out. That or Selby I reckon.
Wow, Great Video. I was just up there on Tuesday (5/7) this week and it was totally different; the grasses and the flowers were completely brown as the temperatures had started increasing. On the plus side KCL campground was almost empty, even better I drove the whole length of Soda Lake Road and didn't see a single vehicle.
Thanks for watching & commenting! Interesting that the grass browned up so fast, it was pretty green just a few weeks ago. Hopefully we’ll get back out there over the summer.
Nice video thanks for sharing... I am curios how you are getting such clear video from your camera. In side the cab or outside? And so clear... N0 bugs or reflection? Very nice.
Thanks for watching and commenting! In this case, I used a GoPro (a Hero 11 Mini) on an external sucker mount mounted to the roof of the truck cab, externally. I've used variations in previous videos on the same theme, sometimes with multiple cameras. Currently editing a video using an Insta360 X4 mounted in the same place to get multiple camera angles from one camera; the raw footage looks decent, and we'll see what the uploaded result looks like. You can see the GoPro camera mount in this shot: th-cam.com/video/NM8BUBIpVok/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pCJpv54VKHVUOwVf&t=326

Thanks for watching & commenting! We had a blast and will definitely go back over the summer. Miles and miles of dirt roads in there.

@@Huffylives didn’t get to visit that side of the plain so don’t have much useful input there. Interested to know how that goes!

I was there around the time you were. We may have driven past each other. :)
Seems like a good time of year to visit, though still a bit wet in places. Nice to see green grass though. We’ll be back for sure!

@@fourwheeltravel Your X4 footage from the link looks very nice. I don’t get such quality using my X3 in 360mode.
@@FrameOfSightsorry, I wasn’t clear. :) This video was just the GoPro & my iPhone. The upcoming vid is an X4 - not published that one yet.
@@fourwheeltravel ok I understand I thought boy the X4 is great . Looking forward to more of your videos. Just happen to run across it today.
Checked out and subbed to your channel. Nice Carrizo footage and drone shots!
