We use to have a fuel theft issue where we would go camping, were would bring extra gas for the ATV's. After it happened a few time, I was at an auction, and they bundled 30 five gallon gas cans as one lot, and no one wanted 30 of them, so it wnet cheap, like $30 for the lot. So after that we would fill one can with 4.8 gallons of water, and top it off with gas, gas floats to the top.... after about six of them were stolen, all fuel theft in that area stopped cold.
Girl, You never leave valuable things out. People will steal if they have the opportunity.
EXACTLY
Tweekers!!!
Exactly people are no good, they'll steal your drawers if they can...😭
@@994pt4and blacks.
Anything that they sell for 40 bucks, for drugs for the day…like hunter gatherers
Just saw your video today. Another idea to consider is that a ranger, forestry ranger stopped by and inspected your site and saw food unsecured in the camp and took the entire box as a lesson. You should have contacted the authority in charge of that type of public lands. They have confiscated it to give back later. Unsecured food draws animals and the danger that wild animals can bring to places where people camp. Tetons, grizzlies should have been in that area among other things. In Tennessee state park this past 6 months saw rangers confiscating food left out at an unattended camp site. Also a few years ago in a MI state park, rangers were extremely upset at an unattended camp site with food left out. People just don’t think about consequences with food left out and animals getting into it making future problems with animals and human interactions. A thief would have also taken your nice folding aluminum table.
Yes yes this. I really wonder if this is what happened. That was very irresponsible.
Food for thought- no pun intended....
@@allwhowander390 @cmdub0257 I bet it's someone from town who knows people leave their stuff out and just takes it when they're gone !
Great advice
Yes!!!!…. We got our camp stove and cookware taken by the camp ranger because of food smells that can linger…… in the Tetons….. I wish you would have checked the nearest station or stayed put…. They will give it back with and educational lecture about the bears
I’m a camper myself never leave your stuff alone you learn the hard way unfortunately
Never leave food but especially water. I had someone spike mine with drugs once and barely made it home. So check your water
wow
Too many crackheads in this country
New fear unlocked…
OMG! There are some very sick people out there.
Common sense isn’t so common.
Did you check with the park Rangers?I We just left Yellowstone and Teton and each camp we stayed in warned us that any food left out or food related items would be confiscated if not being actively used due to wildlife. Just a thought.
This. Food items or items used to prepare food, in bear country, left out... is a no-no. They need to be in a vehicle or bear box (if available).
Yep. Grand Teton NP does not allow anything that can potentially attract a bear to be left out unattended. I received a nasty gram from a ranger for leaving a small container of Wet Ones out on the picnic table.
it was me. I'm a thirst bandit
Exactly
You live it, you learn from it. Sorry you had to experience it!
Stumbled upon your video, and given that this happened 3 months ago, I hope you were able to replace most of what was stolen from you by now. Hope this helps a bit. Stay safe! May 2023 be better than 2022. God Bless!
Wow thank you so much!
🙏😔🤗
So very nice of you
Here's part of a new stove or whatever you need, OK? Yeah, that SUCKS. But remember - you have a crew out here! Thanks for the work you're doing.
Wow thank you so much!!
@@roamingreckless No worries - just trying to help!
That is so nice....💓
@@MsLiberty101 Thanks, Dove. I just felt really bad for her. I'm selling everything and going full-time in two years, so I can't imagine what that would feel like...
@@jimclark7233Its nice to see kindness... I was planning on it too 3 yrs ago but right after I bought my class A RV the engine blew up! & I ended up having it towed to a storage place in Las cruces, NM...bought it in Quartzsite...to make a long story short I'm finally able to get the engine replaced but can't find anyone local willing to do the job & so it looks like my only option is to tow it to El Paseo which is something I sure didn't want to do...& I dont know why no one in that town works on engines because I planned to just put a new one in,...its a 454 Chevy...but still looking for the right mechanic.
You can't leave any of your stuff unattended. People are jerks and will steal what they can get. That totally sux. Hope your cooking stove wasn't in that.
Been lucky so far but only been few months and I haven't got anything noteworthy.
You are right. It helps to make friends with those around you.
I learned 17yrs ago not to leave your valuables!!
Of course you got robbed. What do you expect now? Every neighborhood is a bad neighborhood now.

@rustytr
When did every part of the country -- including back-country wilderness -- become 3rd world?
I just saw your channel for the first time as for some reason the Utube algorithm put you in my selections. Reading about your being robbed made me think of how that must really make for a bad time. I hope this will help you to recoup in some small way. Take care out there. The world can be a strange place sometimes and you seem, from this video, to be a kind and special person. Good Luck!!!
Thank you so much!
@@roamingreckless hey you ok? The Truck causing you problems ?
Got some ghosts still with it? do a cleaning, not sure how, but sounded like a good ide..from the metal holds memory, thats why they read rings and stuff like that from passed on people, and that what you own is alot of metal just saying cause i worry about you.
Bless
This girl makes THOUSANDS a month in TH-cam ad revenue
Why would you give her $100 ?
Help a HOMELESS person or a Single Mom who cant feed her kids.
Ya'll just bought her a new DRONE or other Toy to play with.
Seriously ticks me off that TH-camrs play victim like this when they have BIG ASS bank accounts for doing videos on TH-cam.
I have a channel and I have De-Monetized myself because of ethical battles I had.
Seriously Ya'll
She does NOT NEED you drop in the bucket donations.
@@SailProMarinaFood for thought? I thought only some of them made bank, bc there are so many out there, and the competition must be fierce. .
Lesson learned young lady,when you camp off grid,keep in mind you are being followed
Tristan from SUV RVing has a great idea. He bought a very cheap ($20?) tent that is super easy to put up/down and he leaves just that at a site he wants to hold. (Might want to put a water jug or something in it to keep it from blowing away or anchor it good.) He never sleeps in it and if it's stolen, he's only out $20. I've kept that idea in the back of my mind.
That's a great idea, and then the person that is stealing might not steal if they think someone is in the tent, taking a nap or ? ✌️
@@martasplace6414 however, after reading some other comments, maybe it's not safe to leave water unattended because people could contaminate it. Sad to think that's possible, but better safe than sorry.
I've done that. Usually when I sleep in my truck.
We did that. It was stolen.
@@vjr5261 I would take everything when I left the site, especially if I was gone for hours. Some parks are safer than others, but usually for sites with electric.
I’ve never seen your channel before but, I’m happy you & your doggy are safe. I’m so sorry you were robbed. I once had an apartment broken into & it was pretty scary knowing someone/anyone could just take my hard earned belongings (they even made sandwiches & had lunch 👿😡)! I moved immediately! I’ll be starting van life soon & I can only pray I avoid experiences such as this! Blessings from Texas.
They had sandwiches?! How unnecessarily bold of them. Thank you for your support!
Hi My name is Maria Reyes, I'm sorry you went through thievery, I pray you find a safe spot, Jesus keep you
Houston?
@@allaboutroofing2 the Dallas area.
Burglarized
There are definitely bad eggs out there which makes it challenging to trust others... I have kept things locked up tight for years because there is always someone who will take advantage of easy pickin's. There are also strangers who have stepped up to help me in time of need and maybe I can do a little of the same for you. So sorry you had to go through this, we'll get you back to 100% in no time! I guess that person really, really needed that stuff... Hopefully it's not a serial killer on the run! 👀
Thank you!
Hey, I just broke a shoelace. Can you send me $50 to make it better? Maybe I can think of something else that would make me feel better.
@@roamingreckless You seem incredibly naive. You cannot believe people steal?! 🤣😂😆Not sure what planet you live on but they have been stealing for 1000s of years. Walmart lose BILLIONS of $$$ every year to theft. PS Those other campers are NOT your neighbors. They are strangers camping nearby.
@@thomasluby1754 TOOL
@@dirtydingus5465 You angry bro? Who hurt you? Your name says it all. 🤣😆🤣😆🤣
I'm from Michigan and recently started watching you. So happy to see you and your pup. The video you did in Alaska where you attempted sleep in the yurt was cool!! You're brave ! From one woman to another, you're very brave! May God bless and protect you!!
Hey i'm sorry this happened to you, it's bad. The reality is, it might have been one of your fellow campers and most likely was.
I'm an old Soldier and later a Highway Cop and i found in civilian life not many people can be trusted but no one has a sign on their forehead telling you this. So, what i am saying is, TRUST NO ONE. Take care and God bless you pretty girl. Robert.
Amen
I would have not expected that either...I grew up in Indiana and that was never an issue but it sure was when I moved to Texas & then California...yikes but I tend to get a false sense of security in small towns due to my small town childhood but I better wake up to these changes.
I was raised in Hawaii where thievery is often an art form and competition. I've lost many things. Including very expensive Nikon camera devices and other miscellaneous heirlooms. It hurts. But I'm a former cop and former corrections officer. I've dealt with bad guys and girls for years. You deal with what lies in your path...then move on. Now we're desert rats living out on the southwestern desert of New Mexico. Fenced and secure compound with many security features. Lots of weapons. Two gyms where I train five days a week. Two big bully dogs. Several outbuildings and vehicles. No one is ever completely safe, however, so vigilance is continual. I do agree with this Gentleman: Never Trust Anyone. At least not initially. Trust is earned, never ascribed or a given. Be well.
Only one person ever stole from me, and it was my "friend" in high school. Took it right out of my backpack in class while I was busy with the teacher across the room.
it's getting worse out there. a lot of weak men who can't contain their emotion so they lash out at others. i blame the liberalization of universities
You might've lost your kitchen stuff but you do have a beautiful dog that loves you. Make sure you and him- her stay safe while you're out like that.
Amen 👍
You dog worshipping goofballs are something else.
This is unfortunate. I’m learning a lot from this mishap. To keep my stuff locked in my minivan. I’m glad you’re making the best of a bad situation. You and Blue just keep exploring and have an awesome day.
I love Blue! Somehow our dogs just make everything a-ok ❤️ I had drug/ alcohol addiction issues for many years and then I got to care for someone’s dog while they were locked up in jail and guess what? Cold turkey I quit all those bad habits. That dog gave me so much sense of peace and made me happy, truly happy. I can’t think of a better travel companion. Hug your dogs everybody!!!
I knew of a local Ranger who would load up unaccompanied food left at campsites because the critters would come in and rummage.
So sorry the robbery happened to you. I am a van lifer and because shit like this happens I beefed up the security system on my van. If you were nearby I have extra stoves, tables and other losses you may need. I prefer to camp away from established campsites and find dispersed areas to overnight. I love your dog, Blue, and love how you treat him.
Isn’t that more dangerous? Going to secluded areas?
@@Nallisn nah less people much more safe
Right! She is the best fur mom to him
8:30 I love the bond you have with your dog. That is priceless at that level of sync.
😢I'm so sorry you guys had to go through that...please be safe❣
Invest in a cheap trail camera. Easy to use and keep it out of sight of people and you'll have pictures with peace of mind. Works in the city or the middle of nowhere. Be safe and protect yourself.
Be thankful for who you are, and how you are raised. Be thankful that you are better than those who steal. Happy camping!
I fell upon your channel when i was trying to watch something else and found myself intrigued by you. i seldom have seen women so adventurous and daring. i once took 6 months off and traveled but my travel was to simply play golf up and down the east coast. every night was either in a wonderful hotel or at a resort that had a golf coarse. during that trip i was jealous of the RV peeps. after returning to regular life i set my next road trip goals. after 2yrs of banking away i purchased my first RV only a few years old that was a C class with a toy storage just large enough for my motorcycle and mountain bike and i dragged my wrangler behind me. i was hanging here a few hours a day or 2 there and sometimes up to a week in one area. i was disappointed that my year on the road felt like 3 months before having to return back to regular life again. i did this mid 90's and thought i never want to have to return to what i had been considering regular life again if i was going to hit the road again. 27 yrs later im close to my next adventure !!!!!! ill be starting with the great loop starting from clearwaterr florida working my way around the keys up through new york chicago lake michigan down the mississippi and back to the gulf for a minute before heading across to corpus christi to refuel before going the panama canal and up to southern ca refuel one last time before the adventure of crossing the pacific ocean for the hawaiian islands !!!!! i hope someone crosses my path with your energy and spirit before i shove off. best of luck and health while you experience what most never will !!!
This is the 1st time to see your video. Sorry for your loss but I'm glad you and your lovely pooch are safe. Be careful out there and keep positive. Best of luck.
Sorry for your loss! I cannot handle my stuff being stolen. I'm not violent but I could get that way if I caught someone in the act! I would give people in need just about anything but don't take it! Hope it gets better. Have a good week ahead!
thing about it most times its not just someone riding by and take it most times its folks real close by that you never think would do it lol
@@freebird1ification True! Like they feel entitled!
@@shelbyburgey884 gonna get worse in the next few years keep vigilant out there good to have a dog with you but theres alot of evil in this world
@@freebird1ification Probably so. You stay safe!
Did you report to the local authorities?
Had my truck robbed twice long ago for tools but not camping. That sucks. As the economy worsens I figure this will happen more often. Keep you valuable with you as best you can.
Love your gratitude in the end, okay to be pissed and let down by crappy people. Helped me to turn my attitude, thx
I want to support your live style or your trip so I now subscribe to your YT channel. feel so bad for the personal things you lost. don't stop having fun and doing your thing girl best of luck and don't make that same mistake again love what your doing and hope I'll start my trip soon.
I wish people could band together in campsites to help each other, just as temporary lookouts. Glad you moved on!
The temporary look outs more often than not become the thieves ! I would vehemently suggest against that ! If at all possible never interact with anyone because when you do you are giving them useful information that will give them the upperhand. Never let your gaurd down , always be suspicious of people who are a little too friendly. Trust me....they are never your friends!
Yes, I can see that. Thanks. You’re right.
what if it was one of her camping neighbors that didn't want her blogging or talking so much and stole her stuff to gaslight her into moving
@@absolutelyfailz4480 why would they want to do that
@@arbjful boredom/self loathing? i honestly never really asked
I've been robbed before and it sucks! Hope this little bit helps you start to put your kitchen set up back together ❤
Thank you so much!
Hi Maria 🙂 I recently found you & Blue on TH-cam & I’m thoroughly enjoying your lives & videos! Stay safe & healthy & give your beautiful boy a big hug & smooch for me! Hope you have a happy holiday home with family 🌲🎄🎅😊
For those who leave their tents or screen house.....Go ahead and mark your initials outside big and on every side of the tent, make sure it is not an expensive brand name tent (since you are car camping after all). You can do the same on your table and or chairs wherever parts are visible. The rest? Just keep it in your car. Use a wide marker or even some black spray paint. Yours will be the last one they take. If you leave the mattress and sleeping bag, do the same. It doesn't matter if it looks ugly, just make it so that they won't take it or make it the least likely.
I am pretty sure someone was watching you all leave at that campground.
That sucks. I watch your channel from time to time. Take care.
Wow thank you!!
You and blue are safe and that makes me happy!
Looks like the locals have been scouting. Stay safe out there. New to the channel, looking forward to more adventures👍
i'm so sorry this happened to you. With no tent on the site, it's almost as if someone thought you abandoned the camp. I'm not saying it's right, but it's a good guess that's what someone thought. I'd pick up the cheapest tent you can find and set it up . if anything, it would be a great place to store things out of the weather if needed.
That's what I do!
Aww Maria. I am so sorry that happened to you, but I love your end of the day positivity. You are a tower of strength.
Thank you 🥺
Fellow Michigander here, and this is just how things go sometimes. I am sure that guy was happy to talk to you. God Bless!
That really sucks it actually hurts my feeling that this happened to you. Hang in there girl and we learn from our experiences. Keep that great personality.
I have the same trip planned for this fall. I also sleep in my car and one tip is invest in a small pop up tent, whether you use it or not to sleep in but it gives you something to put into the campsite to make it look occupied. It's sets up just by opening it and is super fast to close up and leave.
Someone most of thought you left crap behind. I used to work state parks. People would pack up leave & leave all kinds of stuff behind they didn’t want.
yep, that was my thought also...its a pity that her first thought was that she had been robbed, when she prob. was not robbed at all...
@@stonemagic540 don't be gullible.....she was definately robbed and probably by someone camping right next to her that seemed really friendly. Maybe even had kids with them.
@@bryanbrett8943 you have no clue what happened, and people abandon stuff all the time...ask any park ranger...they are te ones cleaning stuff up...been there done that
@@stonemagic540 i am a park ranger
I just love Blue. We had a blue Merle Aussie named Suzy. We lost her October 27 last year. I watch your videos 2-3 times....it always makes me smile, like I am seeing her again.
So sorry about being robbed of your stuff! People can be so crappy for sure. Meanwhile, thanks for sharing your great footage of scenery!
I am so sorry that happened to you. At the end of your video, cuddled up to your pupper and feeling grateful...just lovely ❤ . Praying you get some good deals to replace what was stolen.
So sorry that happened to you....people never cease to surprise me. There are good folks out there... try not to let it discourage you... wishing you many more amazing adventures! Keep up the great work and stay positive!
Love your vlog, I get this strong feeling you are Italian, the "tells" include talking with hands, telling Blu to go potty, your rosy outlook, and of course you are smart and very pretty. Stay safe out there and please be careful.Oh, and my mom's name is Maria, and dad Paul...In my family, we have many Maries and Pauls (I'm Jr my son is III, and Pops Sr)
sorry for your loss, worlds full of people that take whats not theres!
I'm glad that the two of you are safe!!🙂🤗
Sorry to hear that your things were stolen. It’s a good thing you left the campsite. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was somebody there. Glad you’re safe. Thanks for sharing!
That's a really good way to look at it. The ones you love are the most important 😘❤️
Sorry your stuff was taken, how ever your safety at end of the day is most important, thank you for your videos Blue looks to be a great co pilot. . Best of luck to you stay safe.
I sorry to hear that you lost your kitchen stuff, and your tent. Nothing is sacred anymore. It's that time of year that it's starts cooling off in this part of the country. We'll probably be seeing snow around here soon. Safe travels 🐾
What a great positive attitude! Sorry that happened to you! Stay safe out there.
I just started watching your videos and just saw this one, people really sucks. Glad you were able to bounce back later in your travels and you've got an awesome setup now.
Sweet puppy , we have 3 labs . Nothing like the companionship they provide . ❤❤
I’m sorry this happened to you and the rest of the people at that campsite. It’s good you left because the thieves might have come back in the night to rob you in person. Stay safe and stay smart!
💟
For sure. I’d have moved sites too.
Sorry that happened to you. I fully understand the feeling of violation - we had our entire camper stolen from our driveway - full of stuff as we were heading out for a 6 months trip. After insurance we were still 15,000 in the hole.
Be happy you weren't there and neither you or your dog were harmed. Good luck & safe travels
Blue is absolutely beautiful!! Thank God you have him!🥰🥰🥰
I feel your pain. I am sorry that happened to you. Sometimes the best way to keep people "honest" is to lock up everything.
So sorry about having your stuff stolen and the feelings of being violated. Ugh! It’s not much but hopefully you can get some more oatmeal. 🤗💚
Thank you so much!! Will be going straight to the oatmeal aisle first thing tomorrow ❤️
How did you donate $4.99?? Thanks.
@@jimclark7233 the super thanks button!
@@roamingreckless OK, I see it. DUH! Thanks.
@@jimclark7233 Hi same name!
That's a real bummer about your stuff being lifted. I've been away from camp like that more than a few times with my solar panels out, and been really lucky. Not anymore.
That's quite a canine companion you've got there.
Y'all take care!
I’m glad you found a positive way to look at the loss of your gear. Of all the things that could go wrong, that’s not too bad.
Thank you for the video. Blessings to you.
Some people suck, glad you guys are ok.
I believe you misspelled MOST !
😡Oh no ..Im so sorry that this happened to you. Glad you and Blue are unharmed.
A lesson well learned ...sometimes it's the best teacher. Be careful in your travels.
I hope you're doing ok. Be Careful out there
Never saw your channel before and just want to help.
Thank you so much!
The photos at the iconic barn were so beautiful! I love that barn, and the Tetons in the distance --- but that one picture at 8:23 with Blue watching the sunset behind the Tetons and the barn is PERFECTION! Screen saver? Channel cover photo? :)
Good idea!
I'm sorry that happened to you! I'm betting no one saw what happened either. Blue is so cute! Safe travels! Gosh, if there was a tornado, you wouldn't even see it or know about it until too late.
I’m glad you weren’t there when they came thru the camp stealing! I’m glad you moved your campsite! Be safe out there!
I can't believe you left all that. I leave one chair and a sign saying "I'm coming back. Please don't steal this".
Yeah it hurts to lose stuff like that, whats worse is you lose faith in other people .
New subscriber. Woohoo! So sorry this happened to you Maria. That really sucks. You just can't trust anyone any place these days, but hopefully that sickening violated feeling in your mind has dissipated. I'm rooting for your success in this on going adventure. Remember Maria, there are more good people then bad in this world. I repeat that mantra to myself often when I'm feeling otherwise(which is often lol). Keep on truckin'.. Give that adorable doggy and yourself a big hug from me. Lol. Peace and safety to you.
Yep, never ever leave your stuff. People will take everything. I’m surprised the table was left. Please keep your stuff locked up and with you. Good luck, be safe👍😁❤️
Maybe they thought they didn’t have time to put it in their tent… 😏
That's so discouraging. ❤I would recommend buying a cheap little tent to use as a site holder & keep your good items locked in your vehicle. Good luck and happy adventuring!
It's not stupid at all to feel that way after being robbed. It is a violation! It's not even the tangible things that are stolen so much as the sense of security you lose for while. 🤗 Maria
Thanks!
Thank you so much, we appreciate you more than you know.
Oh wow thanksss
Love dogs far more than I love humans. The loyalty, love and devotion you get from these animals is priceless, and comes with no demands back from them, only the same from yourself in return x
Scoundrels and scumbags often prey on campsites knowing people will be off hiking or exploring and yes, some will even be fellow campers. Unattended tents w/o a vehicle are hit just as bad. Bummer. Good luck and don't let it deter you though. Happy Trails!
I am sincerely sorry re the robbery/theft. It is a loss and normal to feel violated. It happened to me several times and in different ways. It left me feeling as if there is no hope for humanity. However the best thing I found is to talk about it as you do in this video, to strangers, friends, relatives. You are a good Soul, your parents raised you with good morals. There are many of us like this who are good folks and can be trusted, but there are a few who can not. Because of the few, I lock everything up when I camp and use common sense when camping especially in "uncharted territory". You have excellent content here. Please keep posting more videos. A+
Maria...that is crappy! I'm sorry this happened to you, especially in Wyoming. I have never known people to be like that in that state. On the other hand, I'm glad you and Blue are safe. I'd go to another area where you two can feel safe and NOT experience these feelings of being violated...I hope you don't have any other issues like this again....
Wyoming is a MAGAt state. Of course you will find thieves there. Get out of that place, it's unfriendly to women and decent people.
Maria, Your videos are edited expertly and they are just so interesting- Your pup is the bestest of friend..... Thanks for sharing maria, sucks someone took your stuff, people suck!
You had a good attitude about it but it truly does suck. That's terrible that people are that way. I'm sorry that it happened to you. Stay safe please
Sending a few bucks. Hope you can replace it all eventually. People suck. Sometimes
Thank you so much, it means more to us than you know!
My Prayers are always with you🙏🙏🙏
New subscriber! Enjoy watching your adventures!
Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, sorry to hear about the robbery. Be thankful that you were not robbed at gunpoint. You and Blue are still alive. You still have your vehicle 🚑. These are truly challenging times. All of us have to be extra cautious. Stay safe Dear. 😊
Sorry to hear.. I have bins I lock, and use bike locks etc to secure things, and the valuables I keep in my Ruck sack I lock the zippers with small locks and use a bike lock to secure it if left in the vehicle, if someone wants to rob me I won’t make it easy☺️I hope you are able to redo a great new system!👍🏼
Not everyone is bad, but enough that you need to be careful. Hang in there!
This video has me fumking because I know all too well about feeling violated but the way you handled it was with a smile and thays amazing Maria truly amazing woman with a huge heart I don't know you however I feel seeing you I know one thing you stay up and never down and I admire this quality in any human love th3 channel can't wait for the future shows keep shining u and blue ❤❤❤❤❤
Sorry for what happened. Anything that can quickly and easily be scooped up and gone is vulnerable. I've been camping, starting in the late fifties with my parents. Worrying about having items stolen was not a concern. There were far fewer campers in those days. Most were tent campers. A few retirees would tow travel trailers. Campers were a close knit community. Not so today. I trust no one! With the advent of motorhomes, camper vans, truck campers, more people go "camping" than ever before. And now the homeless have learned about free campsites, which is why I try never to stay in a free site close to a city. Week end partiers, fully equipped with their arsenal of firearms also are a concern. Hopefully this is the worst that you will have to confront. Good luck!
Oh how I definitely miss the good ol' days of camping also! Be gone all day fishing with never a worry about leaving everything around your tent campsite. *sighhh.
Take care and safe travels to everyone out there! 🤗
But the most important is that you and Blue is OK. ❤️
Glad #10 on the Las Vegas Aces is out there exploring the great outdoors during the off-season.
that sucks there are bad people out there, you are such a positive person you always think bad things won't happen. You really should carry something to defend yourself. I get anxiety just thinking about that.
That blows big time! I've lived in the area for years, first in Jackson when it was still possible to live there without being a billionaire, and now in Idaho on the quiet(er) side of the Tetons. If you've fled the area after your bad experience that is a shame because we are just entering the best season of the year. Most of the locusts (AKA tourists) have gone home, the frost has wiped out the bugs, the aspens are turning and the elk bugling.
I've reached the point where I never go to Jackson in the summer unless I absolutely have to. But drive out the Gros Ventre road past Kelly for a few miles and it will start to look like Wyoming instead of Disneyland. Drive 30 miles and you can camp with no other vehicle within sight for a mile. Or pick one of the 80 or so remote camping spots on the Greys River.
I've spent a total of months camping in the region surrounding the Tetons. A couple of basic rules: Always have a fresh canister of bear spray handy in the tent and know how to use it. Ive met a lot of black bears, been backed down by mama bears with cubs, and had a few Griz run from me. If you are car camping keep your bear spray ready for two footed bears. As the USA has degenerated, my self protection is now a short barrel 12 gauge shotgun loaded with slugs and buckshot. For $200 you can't afford to be without one, and your attacker won't talk back.
Whenever I feel like I want to camp in an area with too many neighbors I always lock my car and take my mountaineering tent and cameo tarp off to a site where it would be difficult for an intruder to find. Far safer than camping in a car or tent where a nut case may be tempted by the sight of a young woman alone, And even if your have to put a stop to it with a shot gun the police will throw you in jail until your lawyer waves paper in their faces.
