Mountains Into Memories
США
Добавлен 21 мар 2021
Welcome to our Family RV Adventure! Ryan and Rachel here, weekend warriors with a mission to highlight RVing in the eastern United States; with daughter Sarah, son William, and our two dogs (Trigger and Lilly). We live in Pennsylvania, and while PA is our favorite State to explore, we also visit the surrounding states when possible. Our 2024 Salem 29VIEW is towed behind our new 2021 RAM 2500 BigHorn. While we do share some of the technical aspects of RVing, as we learn them, we mainly focus on the places our RV allows us to visit. We hope you will subscribe, join us on some of our adventures and be inspired to go on your own adventures.

Cool. Hope all goes well or went well on your trip. Looking forward to watching. 👍🙂🙏
@@dayhikedave we all had a really good time in our vacation. No major issues, good weather, and good experiences all the way around. I’m really excited to share it with everyone!
Can’t wait to see this trip. Heading up there is on our list!!
@@MattCraftsman Go if you can! I know you’d love it!
Looking forward to seeing your trip to Michigan. Those little backpacking cots are great. Looks like that will be a good solution.
@@hikingoutdoorfamily it has worked out very well so far! Thanks for watching!
Planning for a long trip is key to what make a great trip. Really looking forward to see your Michigan adventures.
Agreed, I’m all about making the journey as comfortable as possible, that keeps everyone happy and ready to explore! It’s all especially important when it comes to a good night’s sleep, which is really what the RV is for. I believe we’ll be crossing some State Lines in next week’s episode!
Cool upgrades and subtle touches making the camper more comfortable and user friendly. Your children seemed super happy with their space. Man are they growing fast. Thanks for sharing your preparations.
The kids are really growing up quickly. It’s amazing some of the things they can do now! A little bit of upgrading can go a long way in reducing travel fatigue. I appreciate you watching! Let’s get together for a fall trail ride in October!
@@mountainsintomemories fall trail ride it is! My schedule should be ironed out soon. Hoping I can be very flexible to get the best timing!
We have the exact same rig as you guys. Did you have any problems with your shower leaking through the frame on the bottom?
Knock on wood, we've had zero leaks in our 29view. We use all the plumbing regularly, and I keep a watchful eye on things. Our last rig leaked at just about every fitting in it, so I'm rather paranoid when it comes to that. Only plumbing issue we had, was I forgot to separate the grey/galley tanks before heading to the dump station. When moving the rig, the grey came out the shower and flooded the camper...
Excellent Presentation !! Thank You For Sharing Your Knowledge. Proper Hitch Setup Is Very Important. Safe Travels.
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the compliments!
Great DIY. I have been building a storage solution for my trucks the last few years, in my head, lol. at the begining I was wondering about the traction boards, but now I remember why you would have them. I definitely like that bed slide, just not sure how well it would work with all my different uses for my bed. Thanks for the great video.
I'm not going to lie, I had totally different intentions for this whole project. Originally I was going to mount a Titan Sidekick tank on the drivers side, and I can think of several occasions where extra gas would have been awesome; but that didn't happen for several reasons. The traction boards were a last minute purchase, arriving the day before we left for Silver Lake. I really like the cargo glide, it rarely hinders things. When it is a hinderance though, it can be a real PITA. I'm lucky enough to have a dump trailer for most of my hauling. Thanks for watching!
You're right about price but the Rams aren't selling for msrp. $10k+ discounts all over the place.
Yup, there's lots of discounts now. The game is always changing. There were no discounts to be had when this was filmed.
Lhsp! Wow we were just there a few weeks ago for the bluegrass festival. We were camping at Ohiopyle. Have you ever done a video there? There's certainly a lot of exploring to do around there too.
I've always wanted to go for the bluegrass festival! I've not done any videos from Ohiopyle, but have been there many times. I'm hoping to go there to do some filming later this month, but plans subject to change. Thanks for watching!
Good idea. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks for watching! I hope it was helpful!
When we bought our Starcraft 212 FB new in 2021, it came wearing Castle Rock tires that were 7 months old. This was our first travel trailer and I'd never heard of Castle Rock tires, so did a little research. I couldn't believe all the "China Bomb" stories, but, lacking experience, I couldn't ignore them, either. Double checking, the tire specs were the same as the Goodyear, so I figured the Castle Rocks would be as good. and that the Castle Rock horror stories, especially the one where the writer claimed he had one blow up while in his spare tire carrier, were anomalies. After my first Castle Rock blowout around three thousand miles later, I made the switch to Goodyear, but cheapskate-slow-learner that I am, I kept one of the brand new, never used OEM Castle Rocks in the spare tire rack, just in case. Had to be good enough to get me to a tire store if one of the Goodyears failed, I reasoned. Wrong. Just days ago, prepping for an upcoming 6 week trip, I found that the unused Castle Rock, kept properly inflated and covered in the spare tire carrier, had experienced internal band separation, deforming the tire and rendering it useless. My advice would be to get the best tires you can afford, but think twice before buying Castle Rock.
I would definitely never suggest anyone buy a Castle Rock tire. The Goodyears are definitely the way to go. Our new Travel Trailer came with another brand, which we're monitoring closely, 3,600 miles in now, will replace with Goodyears at some point.
Very Nice! I live close to swallow falls. if you loved waterfalls...like i do! check out mingo falls in Cherokee nc. 😊❤
I love my 24 tradesman 6.4
We find camping a very economic way to travel and look for it any chance we get. This looked like a great State Park and you even got to enjoy some beautiful nature and adventure!
I definitely prefer camping to anything else. It’s great when the preferred option is also the budget friendly one. We had a really good time out there, thanks for watching!
What app or camera do you use to get the star trails time lapse?
GoPro 11
That was such a nice waterfall.
@@buscampers it was indeed! I was pleasantly surprised actually, I figured there wouldn’t be much flow.
Did they have to drill into the body for the RAM mudflaps?
@@Marklin15 I didn’t have to drill holes into anything metal. They use pre-existing holes there. You will need to drill into the plastic fender liner. If you look back a ways, I have a video showing the install.
Beautiful waterfall area. I've been to Laurel Hill, but never to that waterfall. Thats great that you were able to travel for a wedding and still get some nature time too. The footage of your son dancing at the wedding is so cute!
@@hikingoutdoorfamily I wish I had gotten my camera out more at the wedding. You should definitely check out these waterfalls though if you’re back in that area. It’s a very pretty spot. Thanks for watching!
Great Video. Perfect example of what a Dad camper gets to do...😅 We spent 7 days at Motorized Campsite 5 and had that whole area to ourselves during the week. The weekend came and everyone showed up...🤣 I want to get back and spend another 7 days, but explore more of the very local stuff for hours a day. We went to OhioPyle too much when we were there. Unfortunate about the gear, but at least you didn't die😊
I was considering a boondocking trip to Forbes this fall. Not sure yet. I’m sure there’s more to see up there. I like Ohio Pyle, but it can get a bit crazy sometimes. I was also looking at camping there.
Great episode rydog, I have to say I live relatively close to this area and still have yet to make it to those falls, glad to see you made it. I will say Sam was a little upset you didn’t post a group wedding shot at the end 😅 great stuff man hope all is well with you all!
I wish we had some pictures from the wedding. Honestly, it was incredibly hectic. I don’t think the 4 of us were in any one spot at any given time. Life is good, we’ll be in touch!
Pretty cool adventure guys.
@@ronthompson3525 thanks! It’s just quick glimpse into what PA had to offer!
😮nice waterfall!!😊❤
Sorry about the mic!!!
It could have definitely been worse, at least it was just the mic and not the whole camera!
❤🎉😊you are a good dad to those 2 cute kids!!!❤
Beautiful place!!❤😊🎉
Thanks, we try really hard to raise em up right!
11:44: This moment is so wonderful to see! This is why I love making videos because your kids can look back and be like... WOW!
That moment was really special to catch on camera. Totally not planned, which makes it that much better! I was so happy to finally find that waterfall!
2:35: I love how you explain how easy going it can be at a campground but still enjoy all the nature stuff. Just being outside and walking around is great!
State Park campgrounds are a perfect place to have an easygoing stay. Even if you're not there to explore, they provide a bunch of little opportunities which are good for the whole family!
Wonderful tips, thanks for sharing your interesting idea
What waterfall
Cole Run Falls
Great video! Thanks for posting this!
@@jimmym1981 thanks for watching, I’m glad it was helpful!
Worlds end is my favorite state park in PA. I love coming there at least twice a year. It’s so beautiful up there, always quiet and everyone is polite.
@@LL-ti7cn it’s a really great PA state park, definitely in my top 3! We’ll be going back!
2.44 Trillion dollars is spent on wars around the world! there is 42 million people living in poverty in the United states! That would give each person in poverty 4,000.000 million dollars! That's why we have to make america first!
CastleRocks are absolute JUNK! Forest River continues using China garbage and should be ASHAMED! Check your spare, you may get good tires then they'll sneak a crappy CastleRock in for your spare. We had a blowout and would have been safer on bicycle tires. What a JOKE CastleRock tires are. American made tires all the way!!!! China tires are CRAP! Our friend had two CR blowouts on the same trip. We take care of our tires and all three tires had low miles, were taken care of and we tow at 65 mph with a light load. Go figure! There should be a class action lawsuit.
There’s not much good to say about those tires. We must have got lucky with ours lasting a few years. I definitely didn’t want to keep them any longer. Our new camper came with a different brand, jury is still out on those.
Hey guys havingvthis model delivered next week and I thoroughly enjoyed your honest opinions on all the features. I have a few questions if you don't mind answering. Do the windows have screens? How large of a TV can you mount? Thanks so much in advance.
@@VogtFamilyHomestead all of the windows that open have screens. I mounted a 32 inch tv because I had one laying around. I know you could go bigger, 42 probably. Hopefully this helps. We really like the 29view, no regrets whatsoever. Do a thorough walkthrough, make sure the dealer fixes anything you find. Once you leave, having things fixed is an inconvenience at best.
@mountainsintomemories awesome! Thanks so much! I'm not sure how I didn't notice the windows having screens or not! Lol. Great videos you guys got a subscriber from us!
@@VogtFamilyHomestead thanks, we appreciate you watching!
I can price out a Ford with the 7.3 for around $10k less than the Ram. I do get X plan with Ford. However, I’ve seen Ram gas trucks discounted at least $10k and even $20k in some cases. I’ve got a Power Wagon currently and the only reason I’m considering a change is due to the payload. A benefit of the Ram over the Ford in my case is the ability to put it in my garage. It fits with a couple inches to spare. We don’t have kids so a larger cab isn’t a necessity to us. What amazes me is how difficult it is to find a Ram 2500 on the lot with the surround view cams and other tow focused options. I guess a bunch of people buy 2500s to just drive around. 🤷🏻♂️
@@That_Paul_Guy I do think both Ford and GM trucks are just too big to be practical. I just don’t see the necessity of a bigger cab, and my RAM fits in my garage much easier. Power Wagon payload is definitely not ideal, otherwise I’d have got one. I also find things “on the lot” to have really odd options. I don’t think it’s the buyers, more so dealerships wanting to keep price points low.
Bought a new 2023 2500 crew cab 6’4” bed 4x4 sport package big horn Cummins in late March this year with a $22,000 discount. I wasn’t looking for a truck with it since I’m used to driving tractor trailers but it did have the towing technology group option.
I don’t like the R3 for the same reasons you mentioned. We have a brand new Travel Trailer and it came with the R3. The tow home was scary. I talked to the dealer ship and they were useless. The R3 manual was vague on how much to tighten the sway control. It said to tighten to your desired sway control. Well, I want as much as I can get. The next time I towed I tighten more than the dealership. It was much better. But, it’s seems it’s a little different every time we tow. I don’t think we will keep the R3 long term.
@@bobdrawbaugh4207 I can’t see not wanting maximum sway control, the adjustment is stupid. I have no experience with the r3, but I’d probably crank it up all the way every tow. I have a lot of miles on my r6 and I really like it. It keeps our 35’ travel trailer perfectly in line with the truck.
Tighten hard back off quarter turn
Go-pro footage outside the truck was tough to watch. Otherwise OK video…
@@glennmorrell4907 I appreciate your comment. This was our first ever video, I like to hope we’ve come a long way with our productions since then. It would be awesome if you could watch something more recent and see what you think.
@@mountainsintomemoriesOK I’ll do that sir…
Great vid!!! I view an Electrical Management System as a "sidearm". Is it necessary...no! But I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. Although the consequence of failure is nowhere as serious as not having a firearm when you need it. If you have an electrical issue at a campground or elsewhere, the consequence of high/low voltage, electrical spikes, no ground can be very costly and even deadly. Plus I am continuously monitoring the volts supplied to the RV, the amps being drawn by the RV, and any electrical faults on the display mounted inside the RV. I'm with you, every RV I've owned, the EMS was the first thing I installed.
I definitely think it’s a good thing to have. Personally, I think the RV’s ought to come with them installed. Add an extra couple hundred to the MSRP, and save me the hassle. I do occasionally look at how much power I’m using these days, especially running both A/C units at the same time.
Several times a year I read in different camping groups about people having their pedestal surge protectors stolen from their site. Good move on getting the hardwired version.
I could see those being an easy target. There’s no good way to lock them up either, and just another thing to mess around with. I just always see people saying you “must” have a surge protector before you ever go camping.
Always use my surge protector at some of these places I wouldn’t trust running hairdryer off of their janky electric
Now that I have one, it only makes sense to use it. We’ve had good luck with campground power so far.
I'll help and give some tips to make a successful RUclips channel!!! Love the tips!!!
We were just here Sunday. It was at the end of a pretty busy weekend. I did not do any hiking, and I thought, well I will just watch your video, lol. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Always fun when our adventures help each other out.
I imagine it was too hot for hiking anywhere on Sunday. We were camped at Muddy Run this past weekend, there were some hikes I would've liked to do, but just couldn't handle the weather...
@@mountainsintomemories I did a little hiking at Colonel Denning while the kids played on the playground. And we sat area few vistas for awhile. There is never enough time in a trip. So, we will go back soon!
@@pennsylvaniaforestadventurer it seems like I could use an extra day or 2 at each location. Then an extra 3rd day just to relax.
Will was having a good time lol. This came out nice, thanks for doing a tour video. I cant wait for the next meetup.
@@buscampers I appreciate you letting me film it! Really nice build, and always fun to talk to others who boondock!
nice meetup and hiking adventure
@@naturelovesasmr it was a lot of fun! Thanks for watching!
It’s interesting I give it that. Looking forward to your Michigan videos. ✌️
I’m excited to start putting together the Michigan videos! Hopefully soon!
Love the idea of a renovating an old school bus...very cool! Nice video! 👍
It’s always cool to see something old repurposed. He did a really great job building it.
thank you
I missed the bus at the meetup. Very nice inside. I wish I were that creative or even a little technical hands on to do stuff like that. I guess if I want to pursue my dream of RVing across the country I'll have to watch some more how to videos on it. Thanks for the tour
There’s tons of videos on RUclips and dozens of facebook groups that can show you the way. Even if you buy new, you’ll need to know how to fix things, as they break regularly during travel. Thanks for watching!
It all depends on what you want to do. Mines set up for camping so it was a pretty basic build. I added things over the years to improve comfort and help extend how long we could be off grid. RUclips videos of other people's builds is how I learned systems for the camper.
Enjoyed this one because I didn't get to see the bus while at Little Buffalo. Very neat to see what can be done with an old bus.
He did a great job on this build, very cool to see what people come up with!
next meet up ill give you the grand tour :)
Awesome, loved it! Both of you guys are so talented. Some of the technical talk went over my head but i think its amazing to see the creativity and design with Bernie's bus, this was super cool watch, PENNSYLVANIA RUclipsRS UNITED!
There’s a lot of numbers and mumbo jumbo involved in any sort of electrical system. RVs in general can be very overwhelming, getting off grid just makes that harder, that’s why most people go to packed campgrounds. Thanks for watching!
@@mountainsintomemories Solar intimidated me for the first 2 years of ownership so I kept putting it off. Its easily one of my favorite features now.
Thanks Walter! Looking forward to the next meetup.
Do your think the oil filter is small enough?
