Proposed to my wife over a campfire, in the site you were in 10 years ago. It was a still, crystal clear, crescent moonlit evening with not a neighbor to be found. No SP back then and ZERO amenities, but also no fees & no one to collect them. You think it’s remote now! Shoulder seasons are MUCH nicer, but avoid it in the Summer - HOT.
Natural Bridges National Monument is an hour from Goosenecks (take the Moki Dugway; otherwise it's an hour and half). Hovenweep National Monument is an hour and 15 minutes from Goosenecks. Both very worth visiting.
Thanks for a FULL size videos.I'll admit I have no idea how much effort goes into shorts but I truly detest them. Glad you're ok ,cept the runover portion, and wish you Safe and Great Travels.
Thanks... As prelude to our Mighty Five trip last year, we did Mesa Verde, Monument Valley (Forest Gump Hill) and Goosenecks. Also, Valley of the Gods, Natural Bridges National Monument and Moab on our counterclockwise loop. Dead Horse Point State Park is an awesome park and a great basecamp for Arches, Canyonlands and Moab. Kodachrome Basin State Park is also awesome and a great basecamp for Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and Bryce. The Utah state parks are very good.
Over 10 years ago I stayed in probably the same spot you did. No wind during my one overnight. Those shelters didn't exist and I think they had one outhouse.
All of the Mighty Five are wind erosion features, as we discovered. While driving through Capitol Reef, we had pebbles raining on the roof and bouncing off the windshield! So yeah, windy!
We love Goosenecks too! Kodachrome State park is incredible too. All of Utah is incredible. Up in the northeastern part you will find amazing Dinosaur history and bones and all the things at Dinosaur Monument! It is incredible there too!
OH MY STARS!! Sean was fabulous!! Lol! He tipped us off to some of the coolest hikes, NOT within Arches!! We unfortunately did not meet his wife, but his dog was pretty cool. Can’t say enough about him! Right from when we pulled in to our departure. He always came around every night asking how things were. Though he didn’t call us by our names, he DID say every time “Hey, Michigan’s! How’s it going? Need anything?” Thanks for highlighting them!
We spent a week here as a base camp. Our trailer was parked about where your was. We loved it and we could then visit all the amazing sites in this area. We didn't have any problems with the wind. We did in the Badlands, though. I got one bar on AT&T but T-Mobile was useless. I concur that there is no water. Valley of the gods is close.
Goosenecks is a favorite of mine. Note that the wind is strongest right on the rim, it is often much less across the ‘road’. Don’t miss Valley the Gods for wonderful dispersed camping.
We are there next to you! The gentleman with the army green camper is from Canada. He is a very nice gentleman on a solo trip. Great footage! We were bummed our drone was not functioning. 😢 Anyway, nice meeting you!
Next time you are in southwest Wyoming, consider Flaming Gorge. Crosses over into Utah. Beautiful place! Green River and Rock Springs are on the north side. Dutch John and the Red Canyon on the south side. Highly recommend.
Thank you for sharing this gem. The wind in this video was hard to appreciate, until Sean showed the interior shots of the Airstream, particularly the "sloshing" water in the coffee pot. Love Sean's humor about the "Airstream was a rocking". Forest Gump hill was a cool add-in, as I think most fans appreciate seeing movie shot locations. Lastly, that was quite a morbid suggestion where Sean suggested a Loloho "road kill" incident be posted; but I appreciate his humor. Long live Loloho! Great video!
Another great video! We will be adding Goose Neck to our itinerary for next summer. Forest Gump hill is also known as Mile Marker 13! We have been there and got a kick out of all the people there taking selfies!
Well, if you are still down there, you might as well visit Valley of the Gods and Natural Bridges National Monument. 🙂The Needles side of Canyonlands is off the beaten track. And if you are visiting southern Utah, don't pass up a day visit (at least) to Dead Horse Point State Park.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. We stayed there one night in October of 2023 and it was spectacular. The night photography was fantastic and I'm planning on going back sometime.
Thanks, you guys! We boondocked at Goosenecks for two nights last month then took the Monument Valley tour. Then onward to Moab. Weather was fine. It was a real highlight of our trip that I'll always remember fondly. Will probably come back but next time we need to check out VOTG and Moki Dugway.
Wonderful! We look forward to returning to Utah. It seems there is always something new for us to discover in that state. Glad you guys had a great experience.
Spent 4 days in the same spot at Goosenecks early July 2019. Yes it was hot. Spent a week this last fall in Valley of the Gods. Plan to hit the area again in the Spring. Long drive from South Carolina but well worth it.
As I recall, if you're traveling from Monument Valley to Mexican Hat, there is a 10% downward grade and a sharp right turn at the end in Mexican Hat. Be careful!
Sorry you experienced such bad weather at Gooseneck Park. I've been there a number of times. Did you drive though Valley of the Gods across the highway? How about going up Moki Dugway that is north on that highway? Left at the top would get you to Muley Point overlook. The view from the top of the cliff is spectacular, you see so many goosenecks in the river. There used to be a Mexican Cafe with a dozen cars in the parking lot. The next three times though town we notice it was the same cars in the lot. Did you know that Forest stopped, turned around, told the people he was tired and wanted to go home. Then goes the wrong way. Thanks for sharing, it brought back many memories.
Recommend Pere Marquette State Park in SW Illinois. At the confluence of Mississippi and Illinois Rivers. Grafton, IL has some cool activities and wineries. You could be "under the influence at the confluence". Beautiful CCC built lodge with dining. Campground is electric only or primitive. Ample water locations and recently upgraded dump station. Bike path to Grafton and beyond along the river. The Brussels ferry is a must do to get to locally grown fruits and vegetables.
The entire Southwest has been rocked all winter long. We were in 80 mph gusts near Vegas, rocked at Salton Sea, pushed around in Quartzsite and the list goes on.
Glad you took the same wedding vows, because I still find it amazing that my wife will also laugh at my off color sense of humor. It is encouraging and self propelling it continuing the wacky comments I come up with as we caulk the miles together. 😊
Finally! A video that isn't a short. I was beginning to think that you were only doing shorts and I was considering unsubbing. I never watch shorts, vids for people with a gnat's attention span. They clutter my subscription page and I always hide them. Thx for the vid of that beautiful site in Utah. It's good to see you again.
Hey you two, thanks so much for the shout out. Glad you enjoyed your cold and rockin stay at Goosenecks! Hope to see you again next year in Moab. Safe travels!! Sean &:Angie 🍻❤️
@@LongLongHoneymoon we are currently hosting again in Moab for the month of April at Ken's Lake, We told them we will host again at Goose Island this fall. 👍
@@ouRVisionnomadicliving we're kicking around the idea of going West earlier this year to attend the June Airstream national rally in June. I hope our paths cross again!
That was some beautiful scenery in that cannon and Forest Gump hill was amazing. Kristy I can see that life is not boring with Sean. I believe life stays interesting with him around.
Good video. I visited Goosenecks many years ago when I did Valley of the Gods. Great trip - spring. I think the reason there are only 8 campsites is the WIND. Probably very windy there all the time due to the canyons.
I've been RV out in the NV/UT/AZ & CA neck of the desert/woods for nearly 25 years, including North Rim, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Bryce etc & never heard of Goosenecks before your review. Thanks for showing it!
How about the adjacent Valley of the Gods and the Mokie Dugway about 20 minutes North of Gooseneck SP? We also enjoyed a couple of nights there on the rim in Gooseneck SP. Safe travels.
Thanks for another great video. I was in the very same spot at Goosenecks back in mid-October of 2021 in my dual wheel class B+. Part of my journal entry for a night of thunderstorms and sleet: "Here on the very edge of the canyon I hear the wind and the Chinook is rocking. Great views out my windows though!". The next, morning I drove north over the Moki Dugway into the snow; amazing country. One of my favorite spots on that trip was west, across the state at the Red Canyon campground in Dixie National Forest; lots of hiking, mountain biking and boondocking opportunities. The only downside is that it is so far from our New England home!
We found Goodenecks a couple years ago. We were coming out of Colorado, and hit it on the way back to California. It is a gorgeous park, and for only $10, it is a steal. Glad you got to see it. Being able to park right up to the canyon is amazing. Cell service is poor to non-existent, but that’s ok. We’ll done! I hate to be stinghy (sp?) with knowing about it, now more people will know!
I'd recommend the Great Salt Lake Antelope Island State Park. Spectacular views and great dry camping available. It's great in the Spring and Fall, but too hot and miserable during the Summer months.Different bt memorable.
Shhhh, you’re supposed to keep these places a secret! Lol. I actually saw this place on the Catherine Gregory channel and marked it as some place I’d love to see in my lifetime. Lucky you 😍 so gorgeous. As someone who looks for scenic camping right from my campsite, this is a prime location.
Yes, the drone technology is incredible. Honestly, I was taking a bit of a risk flying the drone with some of those stiff winds, but the new models seem to handle everything that is thrown at them. They are remarkably stable.
Well dang. We stayed in Bluff, 28 miles away. Didn't even realize that was close by. Ok, that does it, I'm googling State Parks in every state we go to now. LOL Even if we'd done all 48 lower states! Odd! If you go to the Arizona State Park site, Gooseneck isn't even listed?
Fishlake basin 20 minutes from my home there is multiple campgrounds and cabins right by the lake and tons of dispersed camping outside the basin. It's beautiful in the middle of summer. 120 foot deep lake and it's natural not man made. They also have a beautifal old lodge and boat rentals
I grew up in that area. I am shocked that you didn't mention the small town of Mexican Hat, just eight miles away. I grew up there. My parents owned the San Juan Trading Post, Motel and Cafe. My dad also owned Canyon County Scenic Tours in Mexican Hat. He took tourists to Monument Valley, Goosenecks, Valley of the gids Muley Point, Natural Bridges and Lake Powell. Mexican Hat is still very small but there are businesses there worth seeing. My parents' business is now owned by Julie Sword or Palmer. I can't recall her last name.
Indeed, we even give a shoutout to the Mexican Hat boat launch. 😄 seriously, the next time we are in the area we will spend more time in Mexican Hat and shoot some more video. In this case, the cold weather was chasing us out of town.
The summer before COVID we made a trip from NC to Utah to visit family. On the way back we stayed at the KOA right outside Monument Valley so my husband could get his movie nostalgia fix (mind-blowing natural beauty) and we drove to Mexican Hat to eat at the Swingin' Steak. It was definitely worth the trip to see our food cooked on a big swinging grill over a fire. A quirky place, but the food was great. It is worth a stop!
Thanks, now you have piqued my curiosity about the swingin’ steak! Next time we are in the area, we will definitely stop for a meal. I think we will probably be back there this summer. 👍
I’ve been through that area multiple times never knew of it. Friends of mine went to Kodachrome Park south of Zion last weekend although there was too much snow to enjoy it fully they thought it was a beautiful spot.
I stayed at Gooseneck a couple of years ago in May, almost in that same spot. I had to leave after a couple of days the wind was so bad. I went 'across the street' to Valley of The Gods and stayed there for 2 weeks and was the best boondocking spot I ever stayed at.
Yes Utah is a great area. Acouple years ago I descoverd that we had been around Utah a couple times but not in Utah. So we decided to remadey that and spent 7 weeks just in Utah. This made me think I need to go back and eat agin at Pasta Jay's in Moab.
Moki Dugway side adventure from Goosenecks SP. Do not tow a trailer. Do not take larger RVs up or down. No guard rails and narrow. Google for specifics.
Goosenecks is awesome! When we went in July of 2019 we arrived in the afternoon and had no problem getting one of the picnic bench sites. unfortunately it turned out to be a little cloudy so we couldn't do the stargazing we had planned on.
🇨🇦 We had a site in Labrador that I thought we'd get blown off. Also on the îles de la Madeleine in the Gulf of St. Lawrence when the tale end of Dorion came through. The winds were so high that a telephone pole snapped off at the base very close to us. But the worst was the wind blew our front electric foot off the cement block it was on as the trailer swivelled a foot or two clockwise and the tongue jack dropped to the ground a foot or so. No damage if you can believe it! 🇨🇦
Enjoyed this video. Way to go Angie and Sean from ouRVision nomadic living for the shoutout. I’ve seen many of your videos from Utah and we can’t wait to go.
wonderful spot. I hope this was not a prelude to the end of your channel. first of all we don't need anyone squished, and second of all it seems to me you have the best content on the interwebs. Keep up the fun stuff... and safe travels.
If you had turned north you would have got to Valley of the Gods, a BLM area. I won't say it is as good as Monument Valley but it is in the same neighborhood, And it FREE dispersed camping. And north of that is the Moki Dugway with spectacular views 1500 feet above the valley below. You can see Monument Valley from the top of the Moki. You probably would not consider taking your TT up that road, But you could drop the TT at VOG and drive up it,
Maple Canyon campground is a nice spot. It is very popular in the rock climbing community. Campsites are spread out nice and although it gets busy you get a sense of privacy. I’m not sure how RV friendly the sites are since we were all in 4X4 rigs with RTTs. Great video
Makes me think of boon docking just outside of badlands in SD, same sort of setup with an edge overlooking the barren land below and the winds whip through there pretty good, rocking for sure! I also connected my camper just to be sure especially since I was near the edge. Was in an Aliner in the same spot another time and used a rope over the top and still the roof was pulsating...just like you said it's fun to go there at least once...
You’ll have to make sure your exit plan is well laid out! The Thelma and Louise ending will only have 1 take! Was there a road runner driving that acme truck?
Utah is a awesome place. I lived there for a few years, but didn't get to all the places I wanted to visit with work and general life stuff. Definitely want to go back. How's the truck holding up? I rewatched your video on bulletproofing recently. I think your truck will only appreciate in value given the way things are going with emissions on the new trucks.
I would have figured that the closer an RVer parks near the cliff, the stronger the compounding wind velocity hits to cornice as the upward turbulence and eddies spirals upward. Do you have any recommendations on how far back to park your RV away from the edge of the cliff?
We spent a night or two there a few years ago, but my wife made me park on the other side of the dirt road away from the drop off. LOL

Kodachrome Basin is interesting also … off-season is the best time because you get to hike by yourself.
Seems like the wind would be a regular thing there…. As long as the squashing is covered on some sweet drone footage, it’s all good😊
if you haven't been already, the dispersed camping behind Goblin Valley SP near Little Wild Horse Canyon is very good. And the hiking is spectacular
Goosenecks is a favorite of mine. Note that the wind is strongest right on the rim, it is often much less across the ‘road’. Don’t miss Valley the Gods for wonderful dispersed camping.
Here is a tip from trucking for years in the west & hurricane country. Always point your rig into the wind!
Moki Dugway and Valley if the Gods is right there too.
Kodachrome State Park is one of our favorite state parks in the country!
We are there next to you! The gentleman with the army green camper is from Canada. He is a very nice gentleman on a solo trip.

Recommend Pere Marquette State Park in SW Illinois. At the confluence of Mississippi and Illinois Rivers. Grafton, IL has some cool activities and wineries. You could be "under the influence at the confluence". Beautiful CCC built lodge with dining. Campground is electric only or primitive. Ample water locations and recently upgraded dump station. Bike path to Grafton and beyond along the river. The Brussels ferry is a must do to get to locally grown fruits and vegetables.

Wind is no fun but yeah that view! I would love to spend several months exploring Utah.

But the worst was the wind blew our front electric foot off the cement block it was on as the trailer swivelled a foot or two clockwise and the tongue jack dropped to the ground a foot or so. No damage if you can believe it! 🇨🇦
Enjoyed this video. Way to go Angie and Sean from ouRVision nomadic living for the shoutout. I’ve seen many of your videos from Utah and we can’t wait to go.
Great video and thanks for the info! Always super reviews from your channel. Take care. Dave
Such great intel in an entertaining way as always great!! Thanks!!🙌🏼
wonderful spot. I hope this was not a prelude to the end of your channel. first of all we don't need anyone squished, and second of all it seems to me you have the best content on the interwebs. Keep up the fun stuff... and safe travels.
I was there a couple of years ago. Beautiful views, bring in the vertigo..😅
Love your videos. Keep them coming
That was a great refreshing video !!
If you had turned north you would have got to Valley of the Gods, a BLM area. I won't say it is as good as Monument Valley but it is in the same neighborhood, And it FREE dispersed camping. And north of that is the Moki Dugway with spectacular views 1500 feet above the valley below. You can see Monument Valley from the top of the Moki. You probably would not consider taking your TT up that road, But you could drop the TT at VOG and drive up it,
And you could get behind a rock.
Maple Canyon campground is a nice spot. It is very popular in the rock climbing community. Campsites are spread out nice and although it gets busy you get a sense of privacy. I’m not sure how RV friendly the sites are since we were all in 4X4 rigs with RTTs. Great video
Awesome! Thank you guys, great video
Makes me think of boon docking just outside of badlands in SD, same sort of setup with an edge overlooking the barren land below and the winds whip through there pretty good, rocking for sure! I also connected my camper just to be sure especially since I was near the edge. Was in an Aliner in the same spot another time and used a rope over the top and still the roof was pulsating...just like you said it's fun to go there at least once...
Spectacular for sure! Hilarious!
We have been to all of Utah National Parks and a couple of state parks
Our Favorite is Zion
Pronounced “Ziunnnn”
You’ll have to make sure your exit plan is well laid out!
The Thelma and Louise ending will only have 1 take!
Was there a road runner driving that acme truck?
Speaking of the wind. Have you ever used those X chocks and how well do they work for front to back and side to side movement? Thinks RT
Utah is a awesome place. I lived there for a few years, but didn't get to all the places I wanted to visit with work and general life stuff. Definitely want to go back. How's the truck holding up? I rewatched your video on bulletproofing recently. I think your truck will only appreciate in value given the way things are going with emissions on the new trucks.
Kodachrome State Park was a surprise and a real hidden gem.
Welcome back! Tia for video!
Thank you, Commander! It’s good to be back. 🙏
I would have figured that the closer an RVer parks near the cliff, the stronger the compounding wind velocity hits to cornice as the upward turbulence and eddies spirals upward. Do you have any recommendations on how far back to park your RV away from the edge of the cliff?
Looks awesome!😊
Thank you for sharing! Y’all look great!
