Artful Outdoor Adventures
США
Добавлен 13 ноя 2015
Hello, my name is Cindy Jane and these are my Artful Outdoor Adventures. I live and travel part-time in my Jeep Wrangler JLU while exploring the various parks, trails, preserves, and out of the way places that this country has to offer. My Adventures include camping, hiking, art, plant-based cooking, and off-road exploration - really anything that brings me closer to nature. Through my videos I offer inspiration and insight on how to live a more seasonally nomadic and adventurous lifestyle from a vehicle. I started my travels in a converted van before downsizing to a Jeep. I mostly travel solo, but occasionally I am joined by my husband, Kevin in his Jeep. As I gain more confidence and overlanding experience, he and I are working to build out the ultimate adventure vehicle for my needs.
I hope you’ll come along with me by watching my videos. I try to post at least once weekly. Please subscribe or you can click the notification bell to be notified every time I post a video.

Florida Off-Roading in Babcock/Webb WMA - Yucca Pens Unit | Trying out 35” Tires on My Jeep Wrangler
We went off-roading in the Yucca Pens Unit of the Fred C. Babcock / Cecil M. Webb Wildlife Management Area near Punta Gorda, Florida. I decided to try out 35inch tires on my Jeep Wrangler JLU to see if I like the feel of them.

another nice video THANKS
Stay with 35's! I love them on my Jeep. You'll have to program the new tire size into the PCM, so that it'll now show your actual speed on the speedometer and it'll also improve when the automatic transmission shifts.
Nice video ..your tires really add to your jeep ..love the look ..your jeep just keeps getting better and better ...yea Cindy 💃🕺
Great video. I have the same bumper on my Gladiator and am considering the Badlands winch. Do you have any rubbing on the grill from the winch wiring? I have seen some other videos where they have had to drill a hole and re-route the winch wiring through the side of the winch housing because it was rubbing so much on the grill. It didn’t look hard to do but just wondering if you have noticed that particular issue.
Air bag covers?
I got to 53 seconds. And now I can't take it seriously.
All this great work but no fuse at the battery side 😢
Hi I just bought a jeep liberty and I’m excited to convert it into a little home on wheels. Thank you for all the great videos you’ve given me lots of great ideas! Can’t wait to follow along with you on your adventures. 🙂🙂🙏🙏🙏 sending lots of love and good vibes your way!
Thank you 😊 I’m glad the videos helped. I’m so excited for you!! Wishing you many great adventures to come!
We are going next week since we scored a cancelation. Your video helped. Thanks 😊
You are going to love it! That trail is still one of my favorite!
German lady here and visited the Great Smokey Mountains with my kids, as they were little 26 years ago. It was one of the most beautiful trips. Thank you for taking me back 🥰
Wonderful! 😃 I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
You and Kevin should have a tug o war🤣 Seriously... Cindy you have one bad ass jeep!! Im jealous 😭 hope you and Kevin have some great trips coming up Be safe 🙏
Ha ha! That would be funny. He might win that one.🫣 Aww,Thank you! I’m really happy with how my Jeep is coming along. Fun adventures ahead for sure.
another nice interesting video THANKS
Glad you enjoyed it
Good demonstration.
Thanks!😀
that was a pretty good install and great idea with the 3m tape thanks guys😊
Glad you liked it! 🙂
Thank you Cindy Jane for making this video. I came upon it searching for larger freezer solutions in vans, and not only walked away with your clever design for accommodating such larger units, but inspiration for how you have double purposed your cooling units into places to sit!
I love that you were able to find inspiration for both the freezer and the seating!
Oedro steps look great. Are you really happy with them?
@@stevepadgett4071 Yes! I’ve been very happy with them. Still sturdy, don’t make any noise, no chipping, and no rust. I can definitely recommend. 🙂
@ thanks for getting back to me!
Love your enthusiasm.
Awesome video 👍🏽 Subscribe
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 😊Thanks for subscribing.
Great video!
another nice video THANKS; I do not think I will do any of the mods to my 1946 CJ 2 A
Oh wow 🤩 That is a cool Jeep to have!
UPDATE _ Since upgrading my suspension I needed to change the length of my APEX Designs AutoLYNX Sway Bar Disconnects. Here : ruclips.net/video/RogaE55yVDA/видео.html we give you our review and show the difference between the 8 inch and 10.5 inch size.
Thank you !! Very informative ...now im looking at my jeep and starting to think hmmm how can i make you bigger and better ...your giving me ideas. ...thanks guys 🤔
😆 Careful, I’ve heard it can be addictive.
Wonderful !
Very well done helpful video. I liked the video. It is of particular interest to me because I am going to be getting a truck camper and would like to install the flexible lightweight solar panels on the roof. I have been using the mono heavy glass panels in the last 5 years or so and have been happy with their performance relative to the portable lightweight fabric backed ones I used previously. The lightweight flexible panels in past years had a history of not performing as well as the more durable glass panels. It is my understanding that more recently, flexible panels have improved a lot. You seem like the perfect person for me to ask how they are performing relative to your previous mono panels? Thank you for your helpful video. 😊
Thank you. I’m glad you found the video helpful. Keep in mind that these are compact CIGS thin film flexible solar panels. They are different from the typical flexible panels as they use copper indium gallium selenide as their primary semiconductor material. I have been very happy with them. Truthfully I’ve not noticed any less efficiency than I was getting with rigid panels. I can definitely recommend these based on my experience with them thus far. 🙂
@ArtfulOutdoorAdventures Thank you, I will keep in mind the cigs panels are different.
Great video of an old familiar place! My wife Sonja grew up on a cattle ranch at Daniel’s and Plantation Rd before they were even paved and 75 didn’t exist! 😁🤙
Wow. It’s amazing how much it’s changed, even since we’ve lived out here. That’s another reason I’m so grateful for the preservation of places like this one. I hope things are going great for you guys in central Florida now.💙
@@ArtfulOutdoorAdventures Thank You! 🤙
Looks like fun. I can't wait to see more adventures!
More to come! 😁
Visited here twice last week. Lovely.
It’s a beautiful place!
Thanks for another relaxing video ...such beautiful country you live in ... except the Gators!!! 🤣🤣
Florida does have a unique environment. 😆🐊 And critters!
another nice video THANKS
Thanks so much!
You utilized every inch of that jeep...best build I've seen yet...congrats and safe travels
I appreciate that! I’m really happy with how it turned out. Thanks 😊
You utilized every inch of that jeep...best build I've seen yet...congrats and safe travels
I like the way you're able to stand up in the jeep now. What is also good is that you'll still have the sleeping area below, so if you have some real windy or rough weather, you can just sleep below without the top having to go up and being exposed to the weather.
Yes! Being able to stand up has made a huge difference. 😀 I love having both options and I agree about the weather! I also use the bottom area whenever I’m getting sleep at rest areas on long drives.
Really well done. I think it is the best build I've seen for functionality and coziness. Looks like you're set to have a good time wherever you go.
Thank you!! I’ve been really enjoying it so far.
What is the year, make, model of your jeep? Really nice.
Thanks! It’s a 2023 Wrangler Sport S
I installed mine on my gladiator Mojave did you add any lift kit did you have notice any noise when driving?
What great timing for your question! I just bought the 10.5 inch and we are going to install them this weekend. The reason is that I did add a lift and have since noticed a noise. I believe the 8 inch isn’t allowing for full articulation now. I will be doing an update video when we do the new install. I haven’t heard any noise when driving on regular roads.
Really enjoying your videos. If you get a chance, could you do a video on your Jeep before your next long trip after upgrades. Especially your setup for getting in and out of the Ursa Minor. I'm considering a used JK with that setup.
Sure thing! My next long trip is in May. I will do another Full Tour video before I leave with the new upgrades. I’ve been really happy with this setup. Only issue is where to store more recovery gear. I’m working on trying to figure that out by then too. 🙂 Have you seen this video that I did of the Ursa Minor?

Thanks. By the way, if you ever go up I95 through NC, pulloff at Wilson and visit the whirleygig park. Amazing.@@ArtfulOutdoorAdventures
@@buzzboykin9982 Very cool! I definitely will! Thanks for telling me about this.
Omg, I was holding my breath as you rode through that water not knowing what was ahead! Central Florida is beautiful and completely different from the coast!
😄So true. Central Florida can be beautiful and wild in areas.
Gosh I just love your videos. it is so nice to see you and Kevin enjoying the wilderness and your jeeps together. I really enjoyed seeing how the jeeps performed and how your campsite was set up.
I’m so glad you like them! We had a great weekend. ❤️
While walking through the water...i was worried that an alligator might be lurking on the trail ....glad you made it through safely 👍👍
Me too 😅

Hey! I hope you travel up to Oregon ...especially the coast. It is gorgeous. There's lots of things to see and do. Maybe we could meet for coffee in Florence or somewhere. Let me know if you are heading this way :) Love your videos!
Oregon is on my list of places to visit! 🙂 I’ve only seen it in pictures. It does look like a beautiful state. I probably won’t get there this year, but when I do get there I would love to meet up. 😀
Happy new year! Looking forward to watching your adventures in 2025 😀
