- We headed up to the White Mountains and camped at the Lafayette Place Campground in Franconia Notch. After it rained all night and we got soaked on night 1, we headed to REI and upgraded our camping set-up. I wasn't planning on making a video on this trip, but I wanted to share the cool new gear!

You're so adorable! lol it's kinda good to know even you feel awkward when you film - but you're a complete natural! hope you guys had fun!
I always feel weird if there's other people around.. even my husband lol
Congrats on the wedding, I must have missed a few episodes, had no idea. Gotta love car camping so you can bring all the comfort goodies.
As always a great video , it is nice to see Chet in the videos as well. I hiked the loop trail from Lafayette campground on Wednesday. I am in my 50's and it was no walk in the park with bad weather. Your positive attitude and videos were motivational and they are appreciated. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed! Happy trails
Awwwww to be young, good looking and enough money to shop at REI…..🤣❤️⛺️🗻💰
Hahah. The wedding money helped :)
😂
Those lights in the new tent looked clutch!
It's such a nice touch!
Great information and fun video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
So glad you upgraded. I have had a Jazz for many years and it's so amazing. Like the tent!
Taylor
I just love your videos! Keep up the great work! Cant wait for the
"Camping with kids videos"😂
Best hiking channel period. Only thing missing is the 4k view. Keep up with the good work. 😃👍
Thanks!! I maybe I'll try to figure out how 4k works haha
Enjoyed the ‘Chet’ bloopers at the end…thanks for sharing. Congrats on the wedding!
Hahah I loved the bloopers. He was doing that on purpose to get funny videos of me and it worked
So glad you brought us along. REI must enjoy your support. Enjoy yourselves!
Happy you enjoyed! I have way too much fun any time I get to go to REI
I think almost any cheap tent that leaks can be fixed with a tube of seam sealer.
Love the Bloopers!! Nice gear. Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you!!
The Bloopers were as cute as could be!!
Have to say, this was a great video.
thank you! I know it was a different type of video, and we made it on the spot, but I really enjoyed it!
Too cute. Newlyweds first video. ❤😂. Happy trails. 🤘🏻🥾⛰️
haha thanks!
Same EXACT scenario we just did this past Memorial Day. We had an Ozark Trail 8p tent rained right through. Went to REI and got a Nemo Aurora Highrise 6p and we love it.
Love the sleep system! Years ago when we car camped, we did something similar but used 2 flannel sheets in the joined sleeping bags. Gave us the option of just the sheet (summer) or the sleeping bag too!
I car camp with my three grand girls, ages 4-10. They love it! We hike and experience nature, identifying plants, mushrooms and any wildlife. My five year old is quite the hiker and plans on hiking the AT when she grows up!
Good "space heater." Great idea withe French Press. We've had good luck staying dry in our REI halfdome, except one time when high winds knocked it down. When car camping, keep sleeping bags and pillows in the car.
Great to see Chet camping with you. Like the new gear!
Chet loves camping! Just not hiking lol
Great motivation to upgrade gear!!🌧🌧. Cute blooper reel 😆😆
The bloopers are so cute!!
Haha glad you liked them!
Another nice video. We should see more of Chet. I recommend ponchos for rain gear. A large poncho like the ones that River Country sells for $10 can be used as a tarp over a tent in a frog choker or for your older tent, put it over the inner tent. IF you can find two of the older US Army ponchos, they can be snapped together to make a 7' x 10' tarp to cover a tent and the entrance. Consider adding a 12v electric refrigerator and a small heater for the tent when the temps drop. A small heater in the morning can help make getting out of bed less of an ordeal. Have fun. Good Luck, Rick
thanks!
Loved the ending!!! Happy camping. 🏕
Lol you're like my husband and I when we get sucked into the REI vortex. Love that on your wedding registry you had camp chairs, that's so awesome. Cute little portable fire pit too, you don't come out smelling like a camp fire. Love these videos. Including Chrts bloopers, so funny.
omg- the REI vortex is too real!
Sleeping bags are really nice! Loved the pillow option! They always slide off!
New tent is pretty nice as well. Can’t go wrong with REI. Great set up! Love watching your videos. You are just adorable and so honest and positive.
Super helpful reviews of equipment that I now have to purchase!
Honeymoon Tent 🎶🎶🎶 you made good choices in gear.
Sure is easier getting in that door, dressing than it would be in a backpacking tent. Best wishes. Stay safe
Great video, Awesome content and honestly loved the bloopers 🥰🥰🥰
Wow deja vu! I did the exact same thing (regarding my tent). We had this awesome huge tent with a screened in veranda which we loved. Then the rain came. We got completely soaked. So the next morning we took it down and threw it in the dumpster. I knew there was an EMS store about 20 miles away and said to my wife “for the price of 2 nights in a hotel we can’t get an amazing tent that will keep us dry and we’ll have it for years to come”. So that’s what we did and we never looked back. BTW, the first time my wife and I went camping was at that same campground!
Nice gear!! Love REI!! I used to work in Conway and would stop at that REI on my way home to Moultonborough. Happy trails!!
Keep those bloopers coming Chet. They made the video even better.
He had that plan in mind the whole time! Haha
Wow!!! very nice and comfortable tent, if it was my tent.... I would be very comfortable, I definitely won't just spend one night but I will feel at home camping for days 👍🏻🙏🏻😍
Lmfao omg dude your face and comments in the bloopers!! 😂 “I’m gonna get so awkward with you here”. Lol, girl that’s how I feel around everyone. 🤣🤦🏽♀️
I love it too. I also have the Zempire Evo TL V2 and this Nemo is my quick setup one.
For personal safety I have an 8" survivor knife, stun gun, mace, and machete, I added a Bruni New Police 9mm Pak blank pistol (very loud) and a .50 cal Umarex TR50 Paintball Revolver paintball airgun to my RV/ camping arsenal. Both are non-lethal and each is under $100. I also added a solar motion sensor LED lights and have an intruder alert. Remember even if you do not have a gun you can bluff "Go away I am armed with a gun.".Also, buy some M80 firecrackers when you hear weird noises or footsteps outside your tent light one up, and throw it out the window after the big bang you will scare most critters away.
Who can resist REI? 🤩Love everything you purchased and the reasoning behind it . Also really cool fire pit!! 👍🏻. Gotta love the out takes/bloopers - keep them in on any future ones!!! ❤️
Cute bloopers! I want to do some car camping when I retire this year. But, I actually want to sleep in my vehicle. The idea is to get to a trailhead the night before I want to do a hike there. Love some of your ideas.
So we went to rei and did some shopping ha ha that's awesome that's some badass gear though
I can't resist shopping at REI haha the gear is awesome!
Yeah I know such a great store I have one here in Cincinnati Ohio I'm definitely a member to it
Very nice new items you selected. Very pricey IMO, but you mostly get what you pay for.
There is wisdom in paying once for good quality, vs. wasting it in garbage purchases.
I'm sure you will enjoy these items for years to come! Thanks for showing us!! 😁✌🏻
I agree, it hurt when we made the purchase, but we know we'll be able to enjoy it for years! Thanks!
I just got the roamer pads that go with the Jazz bags. So freaking comfortable. I also just picked up the Aurora High rise 4p can’t wait to try it.
Loved the bloopers! You probably don’t make many but if you do you should add them at the end of your videos once in a while!🤣👍👏🏻🎉
I will try to add the bloopers more often! I'm thinking of finding every blooper I made on the AT and make a whole video of them lol
Taylor that would be sooo cool!!! 🤣👍🎉🎉🎉🎉
Well done Taylor!
I just love your videos! Keep safe and healthy outdoors! Looking forward to your more adventures.
Those Coleman camp chairs have been a long time favorite of mine! So many pockets!!!
they were so great! i can't believe i went so long without them
We are big fans of that very tent and sleeping bags! I call it my YogaShala. I can actually do sun salutes without touching the ceiling.
yep! that tiny pump works like a charm!!! love mine too (same as yours). Great gear and tent!
That tiny pump always impresses me!
That is a great setup and I hope you have many years of fun with it. You make a handsome young couple.
Thanks!
loved the bloopers!!!😂😂😂😂
Hahah I'm happy I included them!
So stoked for you. It's great you got some usage out of it but that old 8p was looking sad! We've been eyeing the Wonderland for a while now. Waiting for the sale in November. Love the lights. The new tent looks great!
Good job Chet.
I love my Nemo Hornet 2p. I'm thinking about getting a bigger Nemo tent like you one of these days as well. That looks like a great tent for car camping.
Is it going? LOL We used to camp in NH all the time and also in Maine. We loved Moose Hillock campground. John from MI
Thanks for sharing your trip. When are we gonna meet that lucky guy Chad.
He doesn't really like the camera. But he makes little appareances here and there!
That's one of the things I'm concerned about buying tents from Walmart. I bought a 2 person tent and found out real quick they're not waterproof.
I know you can buy waterproof solution, but you have to spray and let dry for a good day, to let the chemicals in the water repellent evaporate and air out.
If I'm going to buy my next tent, I'd rather buy one that's water repellent and has good rain seals.
Thank you for showing the tent. I'll consider REI tents. Will see if they have any tents you can stand up in. I can't handle the ones you have to scrunch down to change out of your pjs. Lol.
You two are the bomb. Keep up the good work :) love the bloopers 😂
I love Ozark trail products as well as Slumberjack
Taylor, we are considering this tent and comparing to North Face Wanona 6 - How hard was the rain and wind on your trip? I like the design of the Nemo better, just concerned since it is not weatherproof..
I Had that same Ozark tend and had the same thing happen. I upgraded to and REI my self.
can salvage the Ozark Trail tent by getting a tube of seam sealer and treating all the stitches. You'll eventually have to do this with your REI tent as well after a few seasons when the taped seam areas start to wear out and come off
Cool equipment too !
I was just looking at this tent as I am looking to get a light weight tent for backpacking. The one I have is Kelty 2 person tent and it is 4 pounds. Just trying to lighten up my load for my injured knee. Lol
This tent is 18 pounds, it's not designed for backpacking. REI has a few options for backpacking tent! I like the ones from Big Agnes
Flextail gear has just been delivering their new kickstarter pump. The nozzles are inline w/ the air path, so the nozzles don't fall out at all. That was my biggest gripe w/ the adapter for my Nemo tensor pad. Edit: so they'll probably be on Amazon soon.
oh that's cool! Yeah it does fall out pretty easily.
Looks like you had so much fun! question: I use a glass coffee french press from home while car camping/cabin camping. What was the french press that you showed in the video for camping?
👀 You have a great attitude. I would have low key thrown an inner fit but I can't function without sleep. Not rationally 😅
Thanks for the review of the tent as there are so few out there. I’m torn between the 4 or 6 person. What was your rationale for choosing the six over the 4. I’m a little worried the 6 would be too big for 2 people.
I went with the 6 incase we camp with the dog or have children in the future
Is the tent floor patterned? Kind of an unnecessary detail but I love it!
Yes, it is!
If you wanna upgrade your mattress I suggest the EXPED MEGAMAT DUO
Hey there from the Lakes Region! Great channel! What can I do to get my wife interested in tenting and camping again now that she's no longer in her 20s!?!
Was your Ozark trail tent seam sealed I wonder
Yay CHET!
Just curious is the tent seemed taped?
Your smile is beautiful... Love from punjab India
Girl brought her own propane tank and fire pit 😂
what happened to your toque ? whats all that extra material on top ?
those lights are awesome, mine were all twisted such a pain in the ass to unravel
Yeah, those lights require some patience sometimes
I'm not much of a camper (at all) but those outtakes were funny as hell
glad you enjoyed them!
How did you clip the lights?
I was camping at sugarloaf over the weekend and found out my tent isn't very rain proof either lol
Hey there, me and my wife love your videos, where did you get your fire pit at? Thanks
Thanks! I got it in a subscription box. But it's also available at REI and I linked it in the description
Too cute.
Hi Taylor, if you have not already completed your NH thru hike already, can you please address the White Mountains and if someone with a fear of heights could manage to hike the state? Thank you!
Ok! I'll try to remember to touch on that subject out there
Love the hoodie- can I get some info on that? I want one :)
It's from Melanzana in Leadville, CO
Aw dang, I was afraid you were going to say that.
Lincoln to N. Conway, one of my favorite drives. I'd love to have a camera man. I hate talking to a camera only.
It was a fun adventure!
@@TaylortheNahamshaHiker I am hoping to hit a few hikes on "that side" of the state soon. I want to hit Mt. Kearsarge North and a couple other shorter hikes.
try black cap! that's one of my favorites
We’d love to help you create more content! Can we send you a 2.1 ounce tripod adapter with ultralight ballhead? You can turn branches, trekking poles, or even stakes into a fully functional camera tripod. Let us know if this sounds like something worth testing out. Cheers.
That sounds neat!
@@TaylortheNahamshaHiker Great! We'll have our first batch shipped to our warehouse within a couple of weeks. I'll follow up to see if you're still interested when we launch and we can definitely send you a sample.
Did the canopy leak or was it just too tall to really work?
The old tent? I think it just leaked because it was a budget tent and the rainstorm was pretty heavy
🤙
😊👍🙌
Was it "super nice"?
Had no idea sleeping bags had started incorporating all those handy features. Maybe it's time to retire my 30 year old bag lol
It's a great upgrade! They're always thinking of something new
We've camped that way on all of our early vacation to reduce costs. A 6 ×9 tarp on the tent peak almost guarantees a leak proof tent.
Taylor when you slept in the tent and Had to pee was there a toilet nearby?
yeah, there were a couple bathroom within a couple minute walk
@@TaylortheNahamshaHiker nice and Nature?
This isn’t car camping it is just…. Camping. Car camping is when your car is your tent. There are some amazing set ups by TH-camrs with bed, kitchen, toilet, shower, and ’living room’ all in a mini van.
Love the new equipment. Sleeping bags especially!
I think car camping is when you're right outside your car. You can have a much heavier tent and gear because you don't have to lug it very far.
I think of car camping when you drive your car to the campsite instead of hiking to it.
I was thinking the same thing. My car is a miata so I won't go car camping :)
👋🏻
hi!
What a great set up and gear” may as well just live off grid with that gear.
I wish we could have stayed out there longer!
Your a nut! But we still love Ya! LOL
Thanks for the tip on REI. I'd never heard of it before. Was surprised to see there is one right near me in Framingham MA. I hate woke Dicks and they don't have much stuff anyway. Good to have another option.
As long as rain is a thing, never buy Coleman or Ozark Trail tents.
Why a blowup mattress
It was comfortable
We just call it tent camping. What the difference??
Backpacking - you hike to your campsite. Car camping - you drive to your campsite. Those are the definitions I go by, but you can refer to them however you'd like!
Wait ... you 2 people need an 8 person tent? What are you guys doing in there? I need to know this. Are circus clowns involved? Is there a trapeze? Come on, spill.
Is this a college educated woman... WOW
College educated women go camping?!
