    Those brain eating amoebas only attack if you're wearing gloves, so you'll be fine 😝.

      I would swim in that lake ... and have a shower afterwards. Fine for me.

    Another You Tuber suggested if you are in a wind storm, park your vehicle facing the wind. The weight of your engine will stabilize your vehicle if it faces the direction of the wind. Take care, have fun, & thanks for sharing!

    Wow Brian good one! Two awesome lakes in a row!
    And me too on the sunrise it's my favorite part of the day too. I love sunset as well.
    I can't get over the blue of that water. So pretty!
    Thank you for sharing! :-)

    We bought our farm mostly because of the creek and swimming hole it had. We wanted the kids to have woods and creek to play in. At first, I had fear about brain-eating amoeba, ;D but I never said anything to the kids because I knew it was an unfounded fear and I didn't want to steal their joy and adventure. They've loved that place for years now. They are all mostly grown and are pretty fearless woodsmen and adventurers. That's part of what I like about your videos, you just go and do and you've been blessed with sone pretty spectacular adventure!

    @ginac7839 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you so much for showing this fantastic spot at the first part of your video. It’s only like an 1 1/2 hr drive from my house!(Vegas) and I didn’t know about it. I’ll be heading out there soon as I am able!! Heck I might be there 7 days out of every month! Quite the rare find in southern NV! Lol! Yep...we’ve had unusually cold weather lately..and lots o wind. Normally much nicer this time of year. Must be the weather....I’ve never seen Kingman Wash so empty before!! It’s really fun watching someone travel your home turf. You were driving and I was all excited...like...hey! that’s KW! Lol!

    Hi Brian, Awesome video. Love going along with you on your many adventures. Have you considered writing a book of all the destinations you have camped. I for one would buy the book and I am sure many others would too. Have a great weekend.

    Your camping spot looks a little like many spots in Baja. A nice video for me to watch while looking out the window at a bleak grey afternoon in VT.

    @Catmoore60 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Man...drove right by there on at least three trips and never knew those areas were there. I love the whole concept of short trips from beauty to beauty that you have the time to do. Trips when you only get 10 days of vacation a year always feel like rushing to the big destinations because there is no time to dawdle. I think a lot about dawdling in beauty now that I’m cruising up to retirement and you are showing me a wonderful, doable way. Much appreciated!

    • @Catmoore60
      @Catmoore60 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Elliott Yamamoto Thnx for the kind words and encouragement! Some days I think about buying my van immediately and blowing this pop stand and other days I get scared. Known is not always best, but unknown is, well, unknown...hope that makes sense. That’s why Brian’s videos are such a godsend.

    That location in King man I've camped several times but not in the last 25yrs. I've seen bighorn sheep right there too. I grew up to lake mead. It's a big man-made lake and it was my backyard and playground literally. I miss it so much and watching these videos I feel like crying. Perfect filming in my opinion.

    This almost makes me want to go into the desert. I prefer the pine trees and places like Lake Tahoe. Your cooking is really great. You gave me some ideas of what to make well camping. And your plates look like they’re really simple.

  • @patrickjones6400
    @patrickjones6400 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Every time you go someplace I look on Google Earth. It’s interesting to see how much the lake has receded. Even with your drone you can see the end of the (paved) boat launch which would normally be under water. Even where you’re stopped your tires might be in water.

  • @judycarey9051

    That cove at the end of Kingman Wash is a popular place. Nice that you were there when only a couple of others were.
    Did you drive over to Fortification Hill and climb up on top? Spectacular views from up there!
    When you cross the bridge into NV, you can stop at the Alan Bible Visitor Center to pick up maps for more places on Lake Mead.
    (That’s my “back yard” from Boulder City.)

    Temple bar is nice. Had you stayed on the Nevada side and went north on hwy 93 to Searchlight, NV. then about 14 miles east on cottonwood cove rd, you would have been at Cottonwood Cove and had access to a bunch of different coves north and south. ;-) That's about 50 miles from where you were camped at.

    Great shots around Lake Mead spot1. I even like the scrap-seeking ducks! I've always been a sucker for ducks. I ain't taking a chance with no brain-eating amoebas! I'll have to read up on that! Spot2 looked nice as well. Good one, Brian. :D

  • @curtisgrindahl446
    @curtisgrindahl446 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    First words that came to mnd is the "venturi effect" when considering the wind in your last location. If the wind is coming from the right direction, the adjacent hill would restrict it, causing it to speed up as it crosses the hilltop... speeding down through your camp site. The hill isn't providing shelter, but rather speeding up the wind coming from that direction.
    Of course what i was appreciating throughout this video is the gift you offer to all of us through your travels. I'm seeing parts of this country I've never encountered before and that I wouldn't likely see in the future. Thanks for taking the time to capture these images and for creating videos you share with us. I can see your creativity in how you do them. Thanks.

    thanks again for sharing another beautiful place. perfect music to go with it, too. it makes me want to be there, now! patience is one of God's gifts. good things come to those who wait; hienz ketchup commercial from before you were born, I think. and I know what you mean about not knowing what's at the end of the road. as a child I used to explore the woods. I too, looked anxiously forward to seeing what was around the next path. it was my favorite thing to do. you have an adventurous spirit. but you already know that, hence: "adventure"vanman!

    You are my favorite van dweller. I have to live vicariously through you while I crank out a few more years of work. Just on a personal note I’m not sure I like the desert atmosphere in general but I grew up in upstate New York so I think I like trees and streams. But having had to snow plow my driveway for the tenth time this winter today maybe I could get used to the desert. You don’t have to shovel heat. 😂😂😂. I hope you keep up the great videos! One idea for you: maybe write up an ebook for sale that has GPS coordinates for the best places to stay for free over a year. I’m an idea guy! What can I say.
