I was enjoying your video and you showing the great views and outdoors that are available for our use and recreation. I think I saw you burying a plastic bag (19:11 min)... and I make up a story that it was waste products from cooking and camping. I think I, as an outdoor enthusiast, I want to protect and preserve those areas I use and I advocate and practice a “leave no trace”camping ethic. I thought this was a great video till then... I carry out every thing I bring in, especially when I have the means to do so. I practice LNT protocols as prescribed by the various type of outdoor endeavor I am participating in, for trash, food and human waste. I believe you love the outdoors too... I think that we should all be stewards of the outdoors. I think I saw young people in your video and I think I should do all I can for them so that in the future they too, can experience what I as an adult love and they can share and teach their children to care for the outdoors, so that future generations can enjoy, learn to care for and love it too. I have heard the justification...it was only one bag... I think if that is a good excuse... if 5 other people use the same excuse... then 10 more... then 20 more... etc. “You must be the change, you wish or see in the world”... a quote by Ghandi. May all your adventuring be safe and amazing.
Thank you for your concern. It was a “I had to go” moment. Didn’t know what to do so i had to burry it. I buried it pretty darn good. But i get it! I’ll protect nature as best as i can.
Pack it in , pack it out . If ya got to go caca , ya gotta go . The only thing left behind should be the caca . Poopy paper should be bagged up and trashed in town or burned with the next campfire .
Oh my gosh that was AWESOME! Thank you so much for making and posting these videos..Just beautiful:-) Keep em coming! Subscribed and liked ! Much love! :-)
I've been offroading my civic there for the last 3 weeks. It's way too hot for me to roll through this week. Will return in a couple of weeks. Awesome video!
I love love love this area so much! Alabama Hills up through Mt Whitney, and the Eastern Sierras is so amazingly beautiful...and yes, Mt Whitney is the 2nd highest mountain in the USA, after Mt Denali in Alaska.
mikefly562 True, true the 2nd highest, overall, but the highest in the lower48 states. So, anyway you slice it, Mt. Whitney is an impressive piece of real estate.
Great video! Easily one of the best video that shows the actual Alabama Hill experience. Thanks for making it. Do you know the clearance at Reward Mine?
all i can think of is the movie Tremors when you are talking about mt Whitney . nice group camp, the food looked amazing. oh my, boys, will be boys lol Independence mine is very cool. in popular areas like this we will use a wag bag instead of cat holing a latrine as there are actually a lot more visitors to these locations than we sometimes think. save the next visitors dog digging up your freesh bury. thanks for sharing the camp vid. we do much of the same stuff, maybe you would enjoy one of our vids.
Dude burn your paper before burying it. Paper takes for ever to decompose in the desert environment. And a good storm can wash it out depending on the lay of the land. I've seen way too much tp scattered about in the back country. Plus I hope you all walked a good distance from your camp. A lot of people go to those places. Looks like it was a great time. Nice video.
@@YeepLife Many thanks for the reply man. Looks like a great mellow run. I have a bone stock 04' TJ Rubicon that I want to go play with. Don't wanna beat the sh*t out of it, but still want to test it a bit. I know it's more capable than I am. Any more trail suggestions appreciated.
I had to make a slit on the bikini top to pass the mounting bracket of the rack through. It is unnoticeable and the top is so rugged, the slit will not open even in high winds.
vasil sivilov some church folks handed them to me. Christ is always with me when i go wheel to give me confidence, provide safety, to guide me, and to make me fearless!
Did you find Perfection? I know the Graboids are all gone but it would probably be great to go to Changs Market & buy an ice cream. Maybe that Graboid tentacle is still in the freezer.
@@YeepLife The now cult classic movie "Tremors" was shot in near there. Chang's Market was a key focal point in the town of "Perfection" set. Graboids were the underground creatures attacking anything that moved.
Reward Mine looked insane.. Will have to check it out.
Freakin Sweet! Reward mine is epic every time
Excellent video. Great scenery and priceless times with family. Just picked up my first Jeep. I'm hitting that mine in September. Thanks again.

Great Videos
Great video with high quality and skillful editing. I didn't know there is a such mine in Independence. Pleasing and informative.
Great job on the video! This is one of my favorite places to visit, so much to explore!
That mine though! Killer adventure my friend!
Great choice of trails - relatively easy wheeling through rewarding scenery!
Looks absolutely incredible trip and scenery. I'll definitely be taking my Jeep here
The mine drive thru blew my mind 🤯 I just bought my first Jeep two weeks ago. Itching to get out to 395.
I've been offroading my civic there for the last 3 weeks. It's way too hot for me to roll through this week. Will return in a couple of weeks. Awesome video!
Great video. Makes me want to go camping and exploring there.
vendelet You absolutely should! Why not! It’s BLM and so much to explore on the 395.
Pretty cool setup

I used to live in a little sawmill town by Mt. Whitney Johnsondale.
Thanks for sharing....been there, done that...what a great place---Cerro Gordo next?
RON KEMP Absolutely!

Do you know the clearance at Reward Mine?
Thanks. Clearance? Hmm. I have a 3 1/2” lift with 35” wheels and a roof rack and i remember i think i had 2’ of ceiling clearance through the mine.
I can't unsee that fart into the flame. Glory. Nice adventures.

Jeeping with Jenn & John Will check out your vids. Looks like you go out to Big Bear a lot. Love it there!
@@YeepLife yes we do especially in the summer when its baking in the IE. Did a lil snow camping last year and enjoyed it enough we may try again.

Looked like plastic to me .
What a no no .
Shit like that will get all those places closed down for good .
Pack it in , pack it out .
Awesome video. Can a stock jeep make it through this trail?
skin Cha Absolutely.
What trail was that 10:30-15:00? Buttermilk? Thanks for the tour. Looks like ya'all had fun!
houla Yes, it’s a trail called Buttermilk loop in Bishop. Scenic trail.

How did you mount your rhino rack with a bikini top? Looks great !
I had to make a slit on the bikini top to pass the mounting bracket of the rack through. It is unnoticeable and the top is so rugged, the slit will not open even in high winds.
Where did you get the jesus sticker that on your windshield??
vasil sivilov some church folks handed them to me. Christ is always with me when i go wheel to give me confidence, provide safety, to guide me, and to make me fearless!
Holy shit the Reward Mine is insane. Wow give me a ride next time you go there lol
Absolutely! California Jones Adventure cruise since Disney is shut down.

Gold Country Russ huh?

Haha. I think you got it twisted. My dog dont want to be in that tent when i fart. Anyhoo, R.I.P. to my Broc.
