Much more expensive than a Coleman

Thank you 🙏🏽. Hope you found the content useful!

Don’t get me wrong, I DO want one eventually! What’s your setup? And how do you power yours, if you have one?

The fridge may be cheap! How do you suggest to power a 75l fridge for 3 days of cloudy weather? Cheers, r 🙃🙃🙃

I bought a cheap, brandless $180 12v fridge/freezer almost 10yrs ago. I've probably used it 400 days and it still works

Hi, thanks for stopping by 👋🏽 I've actually looked into the Gazelle. I think it's super convenient to put up and take down for multi-day overland trips. However, it doesn't work for me because of the size, unfortunately. I'll have a hard time packing it in my cargo area and fitting the rest of my gear. Which is why I went with a conventional ground tent. But my sister has a Gazelle that she'll use on a trip next month with her Subaru Forester Wilderness. I'm looking forward to seeing it in real life!

@@HellaAdventures I hear what you are saying about the size! If I don't have room in the bed of my Tacoma depending on the trip I sometimes have to strap it to my bed rack 🤣

Yeah it is! I went with my brother in laws 3rd gen 4Runner about 5 years ago. Have you been back lately?

@@HellaAdventures last time I went was around September 2022

Thanks! I’m having a bit of a fanboy moment with this comment 😊, but I do love your products that are part of my camp kitchen!!!

Glad it was helpful Abhilash! The tailgate table has been very useful and comes in clutch when needing to make a quick meal.

Hi Esme, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment 🙏🏽. My setup has worked great for us. I hope you get inspired for your setup! As far as first aid kits, I’m trying to work on a video for that. I personally have the standard version of this kit from MyMedic: mymedic.com/collections/first-aid-kits/products/myfak-firstaidkit?variant=39348827521120 It is a little pricey, but for remote travel, it’s best to cover your bases as much as possible.

Oh Wow!!!

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it 🙏🏽. When the overlanding craze started getting more popular, I was feeling like I had imposter syndrome because I didn’t have a fridge and drawers. But I’m a minimalist, too, and enjoy the outdoors just as much. By the way, I visited Lake County for the first time during this past Mother’s Day weekend. We camped at Clear Lake!

If you’re prepared, you won’t have to 😅

Haha, I don’t knock it. I just need options 😋

Glad you enjoyed the video and leaving a comment 🙏🏽. I appreciate it!

Hey Mark! It depends what your looking for. I use a foldable camping chair by REI like this: www.rei.com/product/217994 Real sturdy fabric, have had them for 5+ years without any fraying, and I can have drinks 🍺 on both arm rests 😆 If you’re looking to save space, I also have this packed in my Jeep: amzn.to/3Cah9PY But if I were to splurge, I’m interested in trying out a Cliq since it packs small, but it’s kinda pricey: amzn.to/3IS1Wa0

Where’d you go camping by the way?

@@HellaAdventures Thanks for the rec Rex! We tagged along with our friends and just went to a camping ground in Pismo Beach. It was like a camp park. The cool part was that people could drive their trucks on the beach, which was fun.

@@IronMkT682 oh I’ve been there! I got stuck for the first time when trying to help out someone with an ATV 😅

Front Runners are compact / heavier duty. GCI’s compact Pico chair or iclimb’s foldable chairs are similar and look lighter. Costco’s cheap equivalent of Helinox Sunset are comfortable but take time to set up and pack up. But even more compact. Lots of knock-offs much cheaper than Helinox.

Woah, had no idea you were on YT! There have been a couple of moderate trails in Death Valley I’ve been meaning to do like Steele Pass and Lippincott Pass.

Thank you Joshua, I appreciate it 🙌🏼

I overland with the same focus, surprisingly you can find a lot of photographers/hikers who would be interested in sharing a trip. You just have to put the work in by joining groups with same interests, network, and make connections - it's really a choice between wanting to travel alone or with others, I enjoy the solo adventure.

Hi Don, thanks for taking your time to leave a comment. I think it's awesome that you're going on a 2 month cross country overlanding trip...I envy you! It sounds like this isn't the type of trip I was talking about in my video. My video is for someone who has never done any overlanding or remote camping and want to slowly get their feet wet. I personally took a few friends on overlanding trips and became their de facto trail guide. I gave them a simple checklist of items to bring or consider, which consists of a lot of the items I described in the video. They wouldn't have started overlanding without first going with someone experienced. They've since got comfortable with the idea of remote travel and being self sufficient, and have now done a few trips on their own. I personally do love traveling solo. I took a month off backpacking South America all on my own, so I totally get wanting to do certain things on my own timeline and not wanted to get peer pressured on excursions or side trips I had no intention of doing. I would have never found a buddy to a month off with the exact itinerary as me, so I was like you and did it solo. Safe travels, Don! I'd love to know where you ended up on your trip!

@@carriewarren7458 Hi Carrie, thanks for leaving a comment! Do you have any favorite spots to photograph on your overland trips?

Hope you found some value in the video! Overlanding is a great way to enjoy the outdoors without the fancy gear.

@@HellaAdventures yep I use a propane stove, my Dad’s old percolator, other stuff laying around for years . We just called it camping .Better recovery gear is next .

Hi David! The Coleman stove comes with a gas regulator to connect with 1 lb propane containers! But there is an adapter you can get to connect to 20 lb propane tanks if that’s what you’re looking for.

@@HellaAdventures the adaptor is exactly what I am looking for. Thanks!

@@DavidLoo you’re welcome! 🤙🏽

Wow, that's awesome! I appreciate you for leaving a comment! 🙌🏼

It was the craziest thing I've done with the Jeep so far 😅

It was amazing!

Awe man, to some, it might not be their cup of tea, but I love it! Some of my most memorable trips have been in desert.

@@HellaAdventures This is Mark, Chris bro btw! Can’t wait to see more content! Good job.

@@IronMkT682 Oh, I was wondering who was M T 😅. Thanks for following BTW! How you been?!?

@@HellaAdventures Good! I live in the Bay now. I was in AZ from 2016-2020, so I really enjoyed your video to see the old home haha. I hope you and your family are doing well!

@@IronMkT682 oh I had no idea you were in AZ. I thought you were in LA for a while.

Coming soon! And thanks for checkin out this video 🙌🏼

Glad you enjoyed it!
