Welcome to my outdoor haven, where passion meets adventure, and every moment is an opportunity to embrace the beauty of nature. I'm a true lover of the great outdoors, having grown up amidst the picturesque countryside of rural Indiana, cherishing the landscapes around small towns. After college, destiny led me to a thrilling seven-year journey with a professional IndyCar team before fate beckoned me to the wondrous lands of Arizona. Since then, I've been captivated by Arizona's stunning vistas and the endless possibilities it offers for outdoor exploration. For those who are looking outdoor fun and adventure I hope this channel provides entertainment while offering a look into Arizona and all it has to offer. I'm on a mission to go from full-time office to full-time ADVENTURE. Let's roll.

Jeeping Through An Arizona Prairie
Просмотров 1622 года назад
What an awesome trail we found on this day as we rolled through an Arizona prairie in our Jeeps. So many different landscapes to see in this state. Though a mild trail, the scenery did not disappoint. From dirt roads, open prairie grassland, juniper trees, pine trees, and a few mud puddles this day was a joy. No question I will be returning while exploring more of what this area has to offer an...

I want to go!!!!
Hello!! Down in Maricopa here! Glad we found the channel! Looking forward to exploring some of these areas. We are pretty green to the off-road side, Wrangler and Gladiator
Hello fellow Phoenician!
@@lindashepherd3968 Hello! Appreciate you watching. Thank you!
Hi there. I am interested in the awning and am in Phoenix. I don't trust myself to install so are you aware of any installation shops in the Phoenix area ?
@@stuarthockridge8577 Rack Attack in Phoenix will install for you to my knowledge. It’s a simple install and shouldn’t take long. Any other questions let me know. Appreciate you watching! Thank you.
Ooo that’s really cool
Thanks! Enjoyed our time there. Appreciate you watching!
@@explore_x_ yes you welcome 😁😁😁
How would I pump gas?
You should play uno and other games
I would beat you if I did. Come visit and we can play for sure!
Hello how do I get a jeep like that ?
It didn’t happen over night. Eight year build in the making. Thanks for watching!
@@explore_x_ your welcome 😁🤓
Where was this campsite ?
Bigelow dispersed camping area on top of Mt. Lemmon. Appreciate you watching! Thank you.
@@explore_x_ thank you !
Hello! Nice rig and very nice video--kudos! I have a 2 door Wranglet JL. I know the mini-IKamper will fit. Does the ExoShell 270 comes for a 2 door?
At the moment there is only one size available. Believe future versions may have more options. If I hear anything I will let you know. Thank you for watching! Greatly appreciate it.
@@explore_x_ Thank you, Sir!
Before we moved to Payson we would hit the back end of the lake often . Ok I really don’t miss the 110 days but the lake was fun! Thanks for the video and sparking some good memories
It’s a great area for sure! Yes, 110 is hot and not something to hang out in if you don’t need to. Appreciate you watching. Thank you so much!
The bar gave it away. You're headed to Pleasant.
Good observation! Was much cooler back then. Little hot at the moment. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!
Fellow Gilber offroader here, great video I need to go check out these locations!!!
Very much appreciate that! We have endless things to explore here in AZ. Thanks for watching!
Saw this pop under my suggested videos was thinking, oh, I wonder why I haven't sub'd to this channel yet.... then the music came on and reminded me of my parents watching gunsmoke and bananza every single day of my childhood...no thanks... obnoxious
Thanks for at least giving it a try. 👍🏻 Maybe the next one….
I've been in Az a very long time and I keep seeing more fellow you tubers who live in Az as well that I haven't gotten a chance to meet. Thank you for sharing your adventure south. My son and I might have to head up there next!
It’s a great place! Either Flagstaff or here is close enough within reason for a weekend trip. Thank you so much for watching. I greatly appreciate it!
At 11:00 who makes that roll out bag you have?
Thanks for watching, Scott! Made by @ikamper. Great multi purpose piece of gear and it's call their "utility bag". Very high quality and well thought out. Just in case you may want one in the future use my free shipping code to save some money. Greatly appreciate you watching!
Uhhhh..... this is PERFECT!
Thanks, Greg! Slow but sure.
Awesome video. Good work!
Really appreciate it! Learning this video stuff there is more than one realizes. Thank you so much for watching!
Schnebly has gotten rougher than it used to be imo. Between the higher volume of traffic & erosion it is a different trail than what it was a few years ago. I typically run it once a year, just love those views. 👍
It is rough for sure! I remembered it was rough but forgot how much. Agree the views make it worth it. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!

Agree. Yes, it was rough and forgot how much. Scenery makes up for it but airing down certainly helpful!
Another great video! So glad this trip worked out. A night of camping + A ride down Schnebly Hill = A great adventure! -- Jim @my2015blackwidow --
For sure! So glad you had the idea. Let’s get to the pines again soon! Thanks for watching!
Forgot how beautiful it is out there...been too long.
Very scenic indeed! Put it in your calendar and make it happen. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!
Hello from northern AZ. New subscriber here!...Sedona is an awesome destination!...thanks for sharing. Be safe out there.
Thank you! Northern AZ is so nice. Need to get up there more often. Appreciate you subscribing and watching very much!
Great video! I’m glad you had a detour thru Sedona!
Appreciate it! You never know what may happen once you get out there. I think I like unexpected detours. Thanks for watching!
Sedona never disappoints!! Looks like a great escape from the heat for sure!
Sure was. Thanks for watching, Tim!
What brand fenders ya'll got on them rides?
GenRight aluminum fenders. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!
@@explore_x_ Good looking rigs. I live in Tucson and will be checking into these and hopefully they make them for Gladiators.
Love that place. Would love to camp there one day.
Highly recommend! You will enjoy it.
Awesome video! Wish we could camp out with you in the future! Can’t wait for the next one. Cheers! 🤙
Thank you! Appreciate it. Hopefully we can randevous at @ikamper Campout. 👍🏻
Mama’s pizza at the end, great choice. Hopefully next time you guys roll south we can show you some other spots, more east of Tucson with high elevation. Thanks for sharing, great job.
It sure was! Jose picked a good one! Thanks for watching, Tim. Appreciate it! Yes, will let you know when we venture south again. Would greatly enjoy that.
So cool to watch your videos buddy!! I need to go camping with you in Arizona
Thanks, Marco! No invite required just call and let's roll my friend. Appreciate it!
Next time try going up through the control road on the backside its a pretty cool trail.
Thanks for the information! Was aware but we had limited time. Want to go that route for sure. Appreciate you watching! Thank you.
Mt. Lemmon looks so refreshing from the heat of the valley. We have added it to our list! Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Very nice up there. You will enjoy it for sure. Appreciate you watching!
Where are you guys?
Tucson. Camped on Mt. Lemmon. Thanks for watching!
I can see that from the description. I need GPS.
@@keithlyon1732 We just pulled in Mt. Bigelow dispersed camping at the top camp area. Several areas up there and looks like you can’t go wrong with any of them. Enjoy as those pine trees are awesome.
I enjoyed the control road going up a month or so ago & wished I had planned more than a day trip. Next time I have to hit up a spot like that! Fun video, thanks for sharing!
@@JT_Adventures I need to try that way. Enjoyed the elevation and pines for sure!
Bummed that I missed out on this adventure! It looks like you had a great time. Looking forward to our next adventure!!
Thanks! Yes, hopefully next time will work. Episode two drops tomorrow!
Owning a black vehicle in the desert multiplies your problems.
So far so good. Fingers crossed. Thanks for watching!
I was just looking in to taking the family here. Awesome video. Do you guys post upcoming trips anywhere? Looking for other family friendly jeepers to ride with.
Thanks! Appreciate it. I don’t post trips as they are generally spontaneous depending on work. Thanks again for watching!
What make are the grey trousers ?
They are @offthegridsurplus and love them! Appreciate you watching!
My JGC Overland gets me to any one of my fav high country outdoor office retreats, and it beats the heat too :)
High country is a good thing. Retreat sounds even better! Appreciate you watching. Thanks!
Great video!!!!! keep it up. cant wait to see the next one!!!!
Thank you! Hope to keep the content flowing consistently best I can. Appreciate you watching!
Awesome video! Definitely subscribing to watch more. Quick question for you: what skottle were you cooking with? I like how it has the little tray on it.
Haha, this is why I shouldn’t comment until I watch the entire video. Never mind my question; you answered it later in the video.
Thank you! So appreciate the support. I use the @ikamper Disco for cooking predominantly. Use code EXPLORE_X_FREE on the @ikamper website and you’ll get free shipping if you ever decide to get one. Thanks again for subscribing!
@@PapawGrandmaAdventures No worries. Questions are good. Thanks again!
It was an amazing trip!! Can’t wait to get out there again!🏜️🌵
For sure!
Just stumbled upon your channel and I like what I see! Keep up the great work. Nice to see an AZ RUclipsr!
Thanks! Support means a lot. Will keep the content coming best I can. Appreciate it.
How do we get notifications to coordinates and coffee?
How do we get notifications to coordinates and coffee?
Inquire with @coordinates_and_coffee on Instagram. They post there. Thanks for watching! Appreciate it.
I love that camping area. One of our favorite places to camp
Thanks for watching! I agree! Great area for sure.
Love the flag pole, and the time with family! I'm scratching my head though why you didn't take the backroads through Peppersauce Canyon instead of the paved road through Tucson?? That would have been way more fun, and interesting to video.
Thanks for watching. That’s on the list for next time. It was late at night arriving and we needed to get back home so we took the fastest route possible but definitely appreciate the insight. Thanks for the feedback!
Always fun spending time with you and your family. Here’s to many more adventures 🍻
Absolutely! Let’s go!
Subscribed! This is great! So excited for your channel. 😊
Thank you, Stacy! Means a lot. Will give it our best shot and have fun. Need to hang with you and learn all the pro tips! Your stuff is absolutely amazing.
Awesome, great capture of what looks like a wonderful weekend on Mt. Lemmon. Living in Tucson, Mt Lemmon is definitely a great escape from the summer heat, and a beautiful place to spend a weekend. Looking forward to part 2 next week.
Thanks, Tim! Really enjoyed it up there. Great place to escape the heat for sure! Appreciate you watching.
So many doors and hard tops.
On this trip we certainly did! Thank you for watching!
