ALWAYS have a backup camp spot ! Solo Camping in Lake Mead

- This week we hit the road for a quick solo overnight camp trip in Lake Mead! Originally I tried to camp at Crawdad cove to get to Box Car cove but sadly they have closed this area down to dispersed/blm camping which was new news to me! Bummer because this was the first area we'd ever dispersed camped in Lake Mead when we first moved to Las Vegas but luckily I had a backup option which is 8 mile road in Lake Mead! 8 mile is a great alternative to Gov wash which can get crazy busy for dispersed camping.
We found a nice spot with a great view of the water, relaxed in the sun and (tried) making smash burger tacos on the Tembo Tusk Skottle @tembotusk which has been a popular recipe online these days but sadly this was not my favorite lol I'd take a bun over taco any day for burgers!

I always enjoy watching your videos! Showing that things don't always go as planned. Love the honesty. Keep up the great work!
I always try to keep real with you guys so I’m glad you enjoy it🤙🏽 Thanks for watching!
Had you gone just a bit further Kaden, there is a precipice just south of where you were with wonderful views also. Great Video!
I'll keep that in mind for next time! Thanks for watching Dave!
That was great advice on setting up the legs to your grill. One of those why didn’t I think of that moments. Thanks for being a good sport and cleaning up that trash. The few ruing it for the rest of us.
It took a while for me to think of setting the Tembo up like that, makes it so much easier lol As long as these dispersed areas remain open I dont mind picking up after trashy people lol! at least these were just beer bottles so it was easy to pickup. Thanks for watching Jim!
Dude! I would have grub those down. No issue. That’s camping 🏕️. Thanks for the video.
No doubt ! I still got my fill haha thanks for watching Ashton! 🤙🏽🏕
Buffalo Trace is very tasty. It’s in my cabinet and one of my favorites. Price is good for the quality too! Great video
Agreed! Our exact reason for buying it, not too expensive but still good! Glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for watching Robert!
Screw it I'm just gonna eat it. Thats the spirit!!! 😂Its funny because I always have the same thoughts before I go camping. I'm always whining about packing everything and dealing with the traffic to get there. But when I get there I'm like why don't I do this more often lol. Its always worth the hassle to get out there. And I agree that Buffalo Trace is some tasty stuff. First time I ever had it was on a United flight a few years ago.
Haha I ain’t scared man I’ll eat it! 😂 it’s a hassle but always worth it when you get out there! 🏕 Buffalo trace is always good and doesn’t break the bank 🍻 thanks for watching bro!
You done good man. It's all trial and error. Just keep doing what you do and keep having a good time. Enjoy your vids!
Thanks Dale! Glad you enjoy the content and thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽
No use M S G, HAIIIYAH!!! Lol. Watching you put in that pickle juice and I think I made the same face as you when you realized you put in too much pickle juice.
I definitely added too much pickle juice lol! Thanks for watching man!
Wait Trader Joe's sells Funyuns 😂
Thank you doing the clean up. We just don't understand why it's so hard for others to carry out what you bring in. Just like you we leave it better for the next folks. Another great trip.

It’s a bummer but I’m happy to do it to keep these dispersed spaces open! There’s always going to be trashy people out there unfortunately. 😂Those Funyuns were some left over snacks from last time lol! Thanks for watching Mark & Teresa!! Appreciate it

I bought a Clam Quick Set pop up canopy 9x9. I cook and chill in it at the lake. Its like a pull pop mosquito net tent thingy. It keeps the bugs out day and night. After being invaded by moths and drinking one that went into my beer can, i wanted a giant mosquito net thing. I also have an ARB awning and awning room thats serves the same purpose but way harder to set up. Great vid as usual! Im jealous, havent gotten out in a while.
Me drinking a moth in my beer would definitely warrant a damn bug canopy lol! Thats awesome, I'm definitely looking into one of those after this last beach camp trip we did a few weeks ago and were getting attacked by bugs lol I was debating on getting walls or creating some kind of bug net around the 270 OR just buying a canopy with a full enclosure so good point on set up, i imagine it would be easier to setup with the canopy vs the awning attached to the truck
Hahaha I've been on a tick-toc burger taco kick myself 😂
I find the beef is too moist for the tortilla so I leave it on the grill (or pan) longer by walking away and just letting it cook longer
yea I should have left this on the grill for a bit longer to get some of that moisture out! I'll try that next time if I ever try this recipe again.. I think I like Buns over Tortillas though lol! Thanks for watching !
Great content
Thanks Wes! Glad you enjoy the content, thanks for watching!
Yo dude! Put a double tablespoons of water under the cover to steam the cheese and get it to melt! Also, I’d turn the beef patty, then put the tortilla on….🤷🏾♂️
I'll give that a shot next time! Thanks for watching Ernest!
New follower from redondo beach
Welcome! Glad you found the channel
Next time buy some canned chick peas/black beans mix it in with ground beef to make patties!!!!
Great idea! Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching Michael! Cheers
I'm Philippina. Watching you cook my foods
What is the name of your cooking machine
Looks like flat iron
Glad you enjoy it! Its called a Tembo Tusk Skottle
Great vid as always. Buffalo Trace is delicious! How are the roads getting back there? Can you make it with 2wd and common sense?
Buffalo is one of our favorites! The roads are decent, you could get back there with 2ed and common sense for sure! :) lol thanks for watching!!
Love the channel! New Sub here and the cooking + camping setup filmwork is superb. Do you have the name of your foldable camp chair? I really want something taller like that that also folds up nicely.
Thank you! Glad you enjoy content 🤙 The chair is a Front Runner chair, compact, easy to setup and comfy! Its been a great upgrade from those standard camp chairs lol Link here if your interested amzn.to/45G68Dy Cheers!
@@Kadenventures thanks so much!
The Voodoo Ranger Juice Force is so much better.
Agreed! Juice Force is good
Hey are you a member of Silver State Nissans? If so look us up. In Vegas
Never heard of it! i'll check it out, thanks Brandon!
I love that beer as well, what kind of work do you do remotely?
I'm a Project manager for IT Systems so luckily all my work is remote these days minus some travel for implementations or training. Thanks for watching Dane!
@@Kadenventures Awesome👍
Lol 😂 when you were talking about the washboards, I was gonna say just air down. You already said it lazy!! Also, how to you like your tires? They 3 peak?
lol! yup unless its a longer trip I won't bother airing down. i'm running Toyo AT3s and they've been solid! After these wear out I'll prob upgrade my wheels and look into a different set of tires
@@Kadenventures nice! I’ve got the BFG KO2s, I absolutely love them! But, you gotta rotate them every oil change or the fronts will wear on the outside edge. They’re notorious for cupping like that if you prolong rotations. The nitto ridge grapplers and falcon wild peaks have my attention for my next tires. What wheels are you looking at?
@@RamJamOverland Thanks ! Good to know about the KO2s. I've heard good things about the Falcons. For wheels i'm honestly not sure, I havent done a ton of research yet all I know is I want them to be black lol!
@@Kadenventures gotta say, I love my method 315s but the nv 305s are damn good looking and come in black! I’m partial to their bronze and gold though lol 😂
@@RamJamOverland I had to look those wheels up and they are exactly what i'm looking for! Lol Thanks! I do love the broze/gold look though!!
I want that Tambo Tust but i dont get why so expensive.
Yeah they are a bit pricey, i'm not sure why either lol I've seen some folks DIY a skottle though if your interested th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=diy+skottle+grill
Can you make Filipino breakfast next time .
I have it on my list for next camp trip!! Thanks!
What app is that leveler on?
It’s called Bubble Level, It’s a free app lol thanks for watching Manny!
But how did the mosquito sticks work out?
They worked pretty well! Just need to find a good place for them thats not the ground bec I (or the dog) will step or run into them lol
@@Kadenventures Awesome. Good to know.
Your not hiking
I'm not in this video :)
