AFFILIATE LINK DISCLOSURE: Friends, making a quality Loloho video is kind of like making sausage - only slightly more violent. It's a ridiculous amount of work that typically involves high dollar camera drops, blue-screen-of-death computer crashes, and at least one angry shotgun wielding old man shouting, “Hey! Get the hell outta here!” Once the final video is posted, rewards here on TH-cam are few and far between (unless you are a masochist who enjoys being verbally abused by anonymous trolls). One saving grace is our affiliate links. JUST CLICKING THESE LINKS HELPS TO SUPPORT OUR LITTLE SHOW. Think of this clicking as like tipping - except that it doesn't cost you anything extra! If you eventually make a purchase via one of our affiliate links, we will receive a few pennies (and Sean typically invests these pennies in duct tape and video gear). Again, it doesn't cost you anything to click these links, and it's a great help to us. As always, safe travels, happy camping, and THANK YOU!

Great video. Thanks. RS
Can you add a link to the grey water tote?
Thanks!
We were there at the same time and had the pleasure of attending the 'Meet Up'. It was a lot of fun and I missed winning a T-Shirt by one number. Dang it! Lol! Gros Ventre is one of our favorite campgrounds. We bailed from our $$$ site at Colter Bay RV Campground last year for Gros Ventre with no hookups because the setting was such perfection even with no hookups. I saw a bull moose along the river behind our site just after arriving one afternoon but the best time, as you conveyed, is in the mornings just before sunrise. What a gorgeous country we have and we appreciate your generosity, knowledge, stunning videography and delightful repartee in sharing your travels with us. Blessings to you both!
Sean, for your gray water, get yourself a sewer cap with a garden hose connector on it. Get yourself a small piece of garden hose with a connector on it. Hook the garden hose to your new sewer cap and put the other end in your new tote. Much easier . Plus get yourself a 12 volt pump to transfer the drinking water from your water cans to the trailer. Put clips on the 12 volt pump and hook it to your truck battery. Much easier than holding the water cans against the trailer. Happy Trails.
I use my jackery to power the pump.
Great idea.
Just get a beer siphon for a 5 gallon jug works great. Keep was ter cans on the truck tailgate
I've been using the hose cap and hose for a year now and it works well. Short hose is good. I cut mine from an old hose, putting the replacement end closest to the new cap.
@@rabbi6225 OMG! If my mother-in-law was with me on a camping trip, I'd have to shoot myself. But, it is a good idea...
We just came back from 9 days of dry camping. Big tanks, big solar and big battery bank are the keys to success. We rarely if ever go to hookup sites.
I don't have a camper but have been watching your channel for about a year.I really enjoy your tells of the road. Thanks
Great video enjoyed watching. Note to self: early bird gets the moose. Such a shame the story that has unfolded there over the past weeks. Throws a huge damper over that beautiful park. RIP Gabby Petito safe travels LoLoHo.
What i use is a 25 gallon blue tot, place in back of my truck. Use a macerator pump for gray and black. Fill the tot go to dump and use sewer hose, lift up in truck and dump. Even if not a dump in your site can travel to dump within reason. Just a thought. Thanks guys!
Watching you guys makes me and my family feel so much more comfortable being in the RV with no hook ups.
I spend 6 months no hook ups... and six months hooked only to sewer and electric... it costs me only 60 bucks for electricity from May to October .... and 180 in the LTVA's .... but propane, takes the place of my electric bill on my property in CO🤠
AND take a tip for your clean water transfer ... Mount an RV water pump to a small board. Put about 4 to 6 feet of clear 1/2" plastic line on the intake side and about 6 to 8 feet on the outflow side. (Or more depending on your situstion) Supply power to it with clamp clips for battery connection on ample length wire, with a toggle thumb switch. Available at most hardware or RV stores) PUMP YOUR WATER IN. Never lift another jug. Save your back. 👍
Surprised you could have a fire. I thought that there were fire band everywhere. Looked so beautiful.
The Tetons are our happy place. Got a park permit this summer to spread my dad's ashes.. got to see moose immediately afterwards. In all the years I've been there, never have seen them. The mom and 2 youngsters walked up to the highway and stopped as we drove by. Incredibly special place!
Getting prepared for dry camping takes some effort but it's been well worth it for us. We rarely even stay in developed campsites anymore. Thanks for the video!
In the military, it was called the Right Guard shower.
I love people who must have full hook ups! They make getting into our no hook up campsites much easier! Been doing it for years!
I once was camping in the fall in my VW van in a campsite there and woke very early to a sound. I peaked out the window and saw a herd of elk surrounding my van. A bull elk with massive antlers was right next to my window. The sight was just amazing. Enjoy!
I do believe that in my state it is legal to dump grey water anywhere. As long as I have a large camp sight I stretch out the hose and leave the valve open as to not flood the area. It’s just soapy water. I use dawn and it always smells fresh. I use the campground showers and bathrooms so black is no problem.
Easier than a blue boy for grey water: A cap for the dump valve that has a hose connection. A short pice of dedicated hose lets you fill a bucket which is easier to dump.
We have camped for over a week with no hook-ups many times and once we got used to it, it wasn't a problem...TY for the video!
Love dry camping. Only 1 100 amp/hr battery (lead acid) and no solar. But a 2kw inverter generator for coffee and microwave times. Or if it's really hot, some AC. By the time coffee is made and mic used a few times a day, more than enough to top off the battery to run the trailer till the next day. Last weekend was three days of drag racing, 100% dry camping at the track with friends. Then pay to dump at a proper campground on the way home. It was just myself in the camper. so 3 days was easy. Didn't need to save water, showed every day. Love being self sufficient.
What?
No Flyrod?
I would have disappeared in a rushed minute in that river with my 5 weight rod floating line, small dry flies, couple small nymphs, waders, Sunday Afternoons wide brim hat, shades, and nice yummy lunch.
42 years now flyfishin Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming..
Nope, still cant get enough of it😁
Repeat daily
Very nice video, you folks also have one of the nicest solar and battery systems in any rv for boon docking . 😎🇺🇸. RIP GABBY❤️
Love these new Monday video schedule
It was a pleasure meeting you guys the night you arrived, sorry to bug you when you were trying to set up.
We left the next morning, glad to see you had an enjoyable week!!
I remember my first camping trip with no hook-ups! We drove down to Arizona to a Forest Service sight. Then we walked down a louder and 30 steps carved into the rock to the bottom of the canyon. Then we walked 20 miles through a wandering creek bed to the ruins . The place was magnificent the large log set at the cave entrance where the nativies would bring up their harvests and game to the pueblo. Magnificent engineering done by a peoples we still don't know much about..
We routinely do 4-5 days with no hookups and love it. Carry 2 marine batteries, extra water in 5 gallon collapsible jugs (we only have 20 gal fresh) but just upgraded size and storage. Can't wait to get back out.
ah Gros Ventre where you get to backup in front of the entire campground and block the only exit for a 50 trailer loop, its like a Nascar pit crew race to get situated.
If you guys are using a battery monitor shunt like I think you are, we've found our propane furnace to use about 30-40 watts, well within our battery capability for maintaining a temp overnight.
Beautiful area we were there several years ago . To bad Gabby patino lost her life there , praying for her parents 💕🙏💕
Love your dry humor.
We just did a three week road trip to Alaska with basically no hook-ups. We travel with a Palomino pop-up truck camper.
A week of no hookups... Sounds my 2020/2021 dating life.
That’s a good one Steph. 😂😂😂👍🏼
GTNP is our happy place as well. We are almost exclusively dry camp and have the water/release/repeat routine down. I mounted a 12 V pump to a small piece-O-wood so that I can easily fill the fresh water. I also use it when we are in the "Winds" to get water from the Green River (with filters of course). The "Winds" are our second happy place. Thanks for the fun videos. I have to tell you that you did throw me on Sunday as I waited with bated breath for the weekly video to drop. 😃 🤣
Bear with me regarding this intricate camping humor. Why do I get hooked on their channel when it says no hookup? It is not easy to be Norwegian and understand everything. For example, who is Jerry Can? Why is it called greywater, when it is not gray, why is it called black water, now ... ok forget it. And I stood outside for many nights getting to see how the moon can look like honey. Well that's why it says long long. And in Norway, moose is called Elg, but we do not have Elk in Norway. But I love the US and am just a little jealous hehe :)
I camp on my own land and never have/use hookups. Solar panels and batteries for power (and a 2000 watt invertor), 2 30lb LP tanks, and an extra 40 gallons of water in a tank in the back of my truck.
This is exactly what I needed to see today. A nice reminder what can be done with truck and trailer. My family of 4 has been living in our 1998 21.5ft and 1964 15ft trailers since early May while our house is being renovated. Trailer life works! I'm always inspired by loloho and their fans. Camp on!
In our Airstream the bathroom sink drains into the black tank (several models do this). Since the grey tank always fills and the black tank does not, doing some dishwashing in the bathroom sink makes the grey tank last longer. To make fresh water last longer I shut off the water to the toilet and keep a jug of water (that I fill from the campground spigot) and use it for flushing.
We camp in Northern British Columbia and never use hookups.
We like the chilcotin but plan to see more of northern BC
We really like boondocking....
In the health world we call that little Square sink a hopper we use the to clean up soiled equipment that has to be sent out for cleaning
It snowed July4, 1995/96 in Yellowstone. Last September in ENNIS MT ground sticking hail storm. Be a Scout - be prepared. My first trip to Kelly & Jackson was 1961 for Teton Valley Ranch Camp - dirt streets and wood sidewalks.
yes we got caught in a Yellowstone snowstorm in 2019!
Never seen a gray dump sink like that before.
I have a 28 gallon tote. For gray water, I’ve found that buying a Valtera sewer hose cap with garden hose attachment makes it far easier to transfer gray water to the tote tank. Just have a length of garden hose available to hook one end to the cap and run the other end into the tank.
Great tip! We will definitely try it!
@@LongLongHoneymoon I used about a 4’ length of hose which reminds me I need to get a new one since the one I had got stuck on a dump station spigot at Madison Campground in Yellowstone never to be removed again! 😀😀
The moose sighting was awesome! I think he put the dent in your propane cover....by accident of course...lol.
Peggy and I feel so blessed to have finally met you. Glad we left BEFORE the snow forecast. Travel safe my friends.
Joe
Spent the winter in the desert of Arizona Boondocking not that bad just hook up to go dump . Loved the area .
Have to agree 100%, the Teton area is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
With cooler weather and no need for the AC, I look forward to some dry camping 😀
Pam and I loved hosting you and Kristy at Gros Ventre this past week plus. You all are responsible for bringing hundreds of folks to this unique campground. See you next year.
Thanks so much, Dennis! We have enjoyed getting to know you and Pam so much! Hope to see y'all again next year.
We got a battery operated pump at Walmart for $10 that makes filling the tank from the bags super easy. No spillage and no holding the bags or jerry cans up to fill up.
I definitely need to find a good pump for water. I tried a couple a few years ago and was not really pleased with their performance. A simple pump would make the job so much easier
If you didn’t say it, I was going to say you both look like you are settled in your happy place. Continued with the “sloppy “ format. Thank you for sharing and have a great day!
I think we just missed you. We were in the Grand Tetons the first week of September! I am sad I missed the snow in Yellowstone also! We sold the cows and our farm in Florida and are traveling the USA in our 25 ft 2017 Surveyor. I still have my two horses and boarding them at my girlfriends farm. Why hubby of 48 years, (49 in Nov.) are having a grand time! I have been watching your videos for almost 4 years now and love every one of them!! Thank you so much for the fun and helpful content! Prayers for safe travels! Maybe we will see you on the road!
Good to see you upgraded your tow mirrors. Maybe a video on that? I know it made a world of difference on my F250!
Nothing like a clean river
Pray for the Gabby Petito family😢
just came off a 5 day dry camping trip. Here in New England I don't see having solar. Too many trees to make it efficient. We just work around it as much as possible. Only ran the generator once. Have fun with the moose.
Try a Jabsco Drill Pump Kit for transferring water to your tank. Most RVers have a cordless drill with them and use it on this pump, works great.
thanks i will give it a shot. I tried some syphons a few years ago and they didn't work so well.
Our plastic vented Jerry cans have two handles for hanging on to when filling our tank. Also the sewer tote we call it a honey wagon. Love your info thank you!!
Definitely an area I tell people you have to see. Enjoy the road and stay safe.
No way! We left the Tetons Sunday and have been in Yellowstone all week! Wish I’d have seen y’all would be there and we’d have come by for the meet up. This is our favorite area. Safe travels!
It was fun to finally meet you guys in person at the meet-up and then later in the park. Great video as always! We always get something to take away from your videos. We're the ones that tangled a little too close to one moose south of Pinedale. It was fun to see our rig at the 10:55 mark! Continue to have safe travels! Loloho!
Thanks. Always fun with you two.
We are off for our last trip on Sunday. The last time we camped in the park we are going to in the fall, we saw a moose.
We can go about 2 weeks with our water, but that is because we use Jerry Cans as our primary water. All our dishes are done outside (except if it is very wet outside) and we regularly fill them up. That mean less challenges to fill and empty our tanks.|
Enjoy your trip.
Had a wonderful few days camping. Even had a Airstream in the next site. Weather was really nice for late September.
I agree we love the new Monday video schedule! Thanks for all you do 👏🏻
Been there done that several years ago before assault just wonderful my compliments.😀
I can not wait to see a moose next year at Grand Teton. Beautiful, majestic, but will jack you up if you disrespect them.
I actually wanted to visit Yellowstone the most from watching your channel. I was really not a clueless child when I visited Yellowstone this past July. I knew all the spots, I knew where to go, and it made my trip much more pleasant. When I needed tips to see certain animals in the park, I asked the Rangers. They was very helpful.
We left there yesterday, hit snow on the way to Dubois. We have had some rather cool nights with no hookups.
If I am going to boondock I am going to do it for free. I am able to go 10 days before I need a dump station. I head to a CG for one night, do laundry in the rv, fill up with fresh water and dump black and gray tanks. I did that from June 15 to July 27 in and around GT and Yellowstone. Was awesome!
The drainage in the floor of shed, should be fine for gray water. No need to put in the flush tank.
Shades of grey! Thanks for sharing the adventure!
F O O D Tip When you head South to Salt Lake a Great Food Tip is
In -n-Out Burger . The Midvale Location is Best if you or your Fans are towing trailers. It is next to a Walmart , plenty of parking. I Say this because When we talk to folks in YNP & GTNP They fly into SLC from back East . They are so Excited about In -n-Out Burger.
We always have to stop at In-n-Out at least a couple of times when we're traveling out west!
Loved this video! We can't wait to get up there in 2 days and see you if you are still there! We are super sad that we missed your meet and greet, but are so looking forward to getting to know that beautiful area of our amazing country. Safe travels!
We went last year, stayed there because of you two! Loved it, went back just on a day trip this year. Definitely will go back and stay again, thanks to you! Hugs to you both, hope to see you out there!
Thanks for bringing back memories of dry camping at Coulterbay. August of 1972 my Dad was yelling at me to get my socks on because it was cold out. They were wet from falling in the lake jumping rocks the evening before. I had to tell Dad I can't they are frozen to the clothes line. Great memories from my late parents!! Today I carry 2, 6 gallon jugs for water and a 24 gallon blue boy, dumping a load each morning as part of a routine. Showers everyday for 5 people kids helped haul the water while I took care of the gray.
About moose be very careful around them they will charge you and are more dangerous then bear are. They have been known to take on the logging trucks shoving their paddle through many radiators.
Thanks for the great memories!!🤗😁🤗
Good video! Gros Ventre is our next stop after Island Park. I once saw someone use the hitch on the back of their truck to tow that heavy "tote" with wheels to dump their waste water😆
Nicely done. Thank you. 🙏 and safe travels.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing this with us
We loved GTNP!! We did a float down the snake river with the GT Lodge Company. Had the best guide (request Kent). We saw three moose in the middle of the afternoon at the end of June. Kent’s theory was that the moose can’t always be dawn and dusk animals if they want to eat enough in the 90 or so frost free mornings they get there every year.
Speaking of supplies, there is an Albertsons grocery store in Jackson. Sure beats convenience store prices.
Smith's grocery store just south of town is even cheaper!
Always on the look out for you guys, we were up that way, earlier this summer... safe travels!
Thanks for sharing Gros Ventre with us. I've wanted to see a moose that close for years. I envy you getting to do that. Missing having Christy in the last several videos. She's a lot of fun and adds so much. I love the way ya'll finish each other's sentences when you're sharing with us. I hope all is well.
Love your videos and this one was no exception. I live my RV adventures through you guys. We can only go as far as 12-15 miles away right now with our work situation. Our favorite state park is just 2 miles away as the crow flies, about 5 miles driving. So I guess I am lucky in some ways. ❤
Great camping. Fabulous scenery. No generators. The Tetons are on my to do list.
Hey guys, I must say, so far we are the full hook up people when we've been out. This is really our first year of enthusiastic rving. It took my wife a little convincing. She's on board now. We also have a off grid cabin. So we do know what the boondocking is all about. We're planning our 30th anniversary trip for the fall of 2023 to glacier, yellow stone and the tetons. Maybe we'll run into you while we're there. Take care. - Paul
Airstream with propane, shower, AC, sat...wow roughing it lol.
I use a pump to empty water jugs into our fresh water tank.
Really enjoyed this video. I was in Gros Ventre campground in July and didn't see any moose. I've been missing the moose so much since I moved away from Park City, UT! That big bull was so beautiful. Also liked the demo on the grey water tote. I passed on getting one because I didn't think I handle the weight. Thanks for confirming the capacity and process. Enjoy the rest of your visit to the Tetons!
My F350 is also Bulletproofed by Bulletproof Diesel.
I added a BD Diesel tap shifter LOVE IT. I can now choose any gear any time.
It included an engine brake. Go down steep hills and never touch the brakes.
Just an idea.
We went to Yellowstone September 19, 2020 - it was a journey though - not just a destination. We traveled from Eastern Oregon, up the Rattlesnake in Hells Canyon (ever driven that road???) then up Idaho Panhandle way up north through Glacier the Highline in Montana down to eastern WY, Devils Tower, Buffalo Bill SP - Dinosaurs!, then Sweet 16 to Yellowstone - beautiful all in its golden glory of early fall - I saw my first Buffalo after 7 years of Full time RV'ing (yea I know) - it was really crowded though - HUGE BUSES one after another full of 100's of overseas tourists who just literally invaded all of the spots. We drove our rig so parking was a big of an issue and there was a lot of construction going on which I imagine goes on. I don't think it'll be any better this summer.
Great video! Feeling a little melancholy as we had a spectacular time camping in Gros Ventre Campground this time last year. I was even able to fly fish in river but it was much lower than it looks this year. Our trip was overshadowed by a lot of smoke, but it looks clear and beautiful now. Hope to make it back next year, maybe in the spring. Safe travel you two.
boondocking is the only way to camp because it allows so many more places to stay
Jealous of you guys in Jackson without the crowds. Was there this summer and its elbow to elbow in the square, thousands of people. Can't wait to head out full time in the fall. I'll never have to camp with the tourists again. The grey water tote was funny as hell, I use a 60 gallon one when we hit the state parks and I empty my grey tanks daily. My wife and kids wouldn't last one night dry camping. We have 2 full baths and 4 tanks in the fifth wheel and it literally won't last 2 days. You guys are awesome water savers.
love the vid great area we have just gotten our first generator after a year of full timing but one step at a time safe travels
After years of learning from y'all we are delighted to share a tip that might help you regarding your smart bottles. We use a D-cell battery operated pump most commonly used for turkey fryer oil transfer to pump from the bags to the fresh. We did our ONLY how to video on it. If you want I'll send you the link, but you can probably get the idea.😉. Great video as always!
After following LOLOHO since 2019 and purchasing a 4 year old AS ( read the book) we finally made it to Gro Ventre this summer. (Appropriate tee shirt pic sent earlier) and although it was a little smokey when we were there we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks for getting us started in the right direction!
“Christy has volunteered to hold the hose...” 🤓😆
Enjoyed the pictures of moose, beautiful stream. What a nice place to camp with friends.
On my way, will be there Wednesday, can’t wait!
Early birds in grand Teton equals MAGIC. Thanks for sharing your magic
Looks like a great place we are making reservations for next September can’t wait to see it all
Very nice video! At least you needed to dump only the Gerry tank. No black tank. Nice camping area near the Tetons. I remember seeing on captain Kangaroo Mr. Moose! He would always have ping pong balls fall from the sky. When I see moos that’s who I think of. Thank you! For the video and fir showing the moose and the town of Jackson. Very nicely done. Hope you have a great night and have a great week.
I’m still hanging out in West Yellowstone and enjoyed a bit of snowfall yesterday.
Wow big crowd!
Love it. You guys rock!
