    Another great video. My favorite sound is light rainfall on the tent.
    Your new jeep looks awesome cruising in the national forest.

      Thank you very much! Couldn't agree more, falling asleep to rain is one of the best. Good thing we get plenty of opportunities here in the Pacific Northwest... 😆 😉

    We moved to Vancouver, WA from Alaska last year. We spent a night camping in this national forest a couple of months ago, and it was beautiful. The southern end of this forest is only about 45 minutes to an hour away, so I'll have to get out there and explore the area more. 😊

      Right on! Glad to hear you guys got out and explored the area! Gifford has a lot to offer and if you visit during the offseason of fall or early winter, you almost have the place to yourself.
      Thank you for watching and the support, means a lot!

    Own an identical Trailhawk 4xe. Really enjoy your videos. I see you changed your tires. What are you running? Any hit to your electric range driving in town?

    • @ConquestOverland
      @ConquestOverland  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right on! How you liking your 4xe?
      I’m running the Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws, they are a great year round tire and I hardly noticed any difference in mileage! The stock tires were okay but didn’t feel the sidewall would be strong enough offroad when aired downed so I didn’t risk it 😉👍

    I’m pretty sure I was sitting at a light next to you this morning on my way to work, in a city that starts with K. Not sure if you noticed the black diesel bmw x5 with AT’s and a hitch mounted wheel carrier as you crept up to the light, but that was me!

      Love the videos, we have extremely similar weekend pastimes. I moved here in January, and spent the spring and summer breaking trails all through the snoqualmie NF north of ranier. See you around, you’ll get a wave next time!

      Thank you so much! I’m using the DJI Mini 3 Pro, it was one of the best investments for sure.
      They just released a new one so who knows, might be able to strike a deal on the prior model with some accessories!

    Awesome trailhawk! Thinking about getting one myself. Do you feel it has enough room for all of your gear?

    • @ConquestOverland
      @ConquestOverland  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! They are a perfect platform for those needing an all-in-one daily commuter and weekend warrior. Interior room has been a little of a challenge though everyone's needs will be different. I simply lay the rear seats down which give additional storage capability for cargo cases, fridge, fireplace, 5 gal. propane tank, table, chairs, personal bag, camera bag, etc. It's a little tight with the roof being taken up by the RTT though if you decided to use a roof cargo box like Thule or Yakima, you should have plenty of room even with a small family.

      Plenty of other channels with out there! Sad your adventures are defined by a singular tool… ✌️

  • @mattadamsphotography
    @mattadamsphotography ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Finding a spot was incredibly difficult because you keep putting these places on blast. You can make videos without talking about locations, my friend. I do love you content and hope you don’t take this personally, but as someone who also lives in the area and has seen the impact of social media on areas I love, felt compelled to give you some feedback.

    • @ConquestOverland
      @ConquestOverland  ปีที่แล้ว +7

      As someone who advocates for this topic constantly, folks are going to get out and explore regardless. The difference is those who provide exact coordinates, especially those who profit from doing so.
      If you’ve been watching the channel long enough you’ll find that I’ve done neither leaving the exploration of such locations as part of the adventure (read the “where is this” comments in literally any video of mine).
      Reason it was busy is because it’s peak summer season and easy accessibility to the numerous campgrounds. I’ve been here in the rainy months only to find no one around.
      In all honesty, I’m the least of the problem compared to most you probably follow on social media… 🤷‍♂️
      Thanks for watching though and the continued support!

      @@ConquestOverland Fair enough. You see it one way, I see it another. Debate is healthy and these are good questions we should all be asking ourselves. I still feel like even naming the forest or specific towns is enough to make an impact. Between the increased human caused fires and trash issues I've seen from the uptick in casual people who aren't aware or don't care as much about these areas or their own impact, I feel like it's worth speaking out more on this topic among the youtube/social media community (not even just overland TH-camrs). Maybe I'm being unreasonable, I don't know. But I see the impact and think this is worthy of conversation in this community. I would still watch and enjoy your videos all the same if you never mentioned a single location. I appreciate the response brother. Thanks for the content and inspiration.
