Wow Wow Wow !!! Finally , finally.....and I’ve watched a LOT of these type of videos....a clear and concise presentation of stuff that we like without any BS. GREAT JOB !!!!!! Seriously......GREAT JOB !!!! The best thing about your presentation here is that you don’t go on and on and on about crap details that nobody cares about. I mean it ! You give excellent information which is very useful and helpful. Your channel could be the first one I actually subscribe to......have not done this in the 2 years I’ve been full time RV living. Keep up the GREAT, informative presentations !
Liz & Dennis- you have one of the most natural and informative vlogs! Liz your demeanor is friendly and inviting. kudos to the both of you for very enjoyable vids. Congrats on the Airhead too!
Fantastic Video.....the drone has taken things to a whole new level. The vistas are amazing. All I can say is please keep giving us more VLOGs like this one....BRAVO!
Great video! I live here and there’s so much free public camping. You can camp on the east side like you did for a more desert feel or camp on the west side for alpine splendor. The down side we no longer have a recycling center and Mt. Princeton is much more expensive. One thing you didn’t mention is the awesome river rafting and kayaking! Many breweries and distilleries like you mentioned. Please be cautious in the summertime afternoon when we often get severe thunderstorms especially on mountain peaks. I’m glad you had a fantastic time!
Hi!!! You guys are amazing. Thank for you sharing all you know and all your learning. I just picked up my converted van. Sticking to campgrounds until i get more comfortable but your soooooo motivating me to free camp! Just joined boondockers welcome! thank you again. Love you guys!
I love your channel. I am planning for a class b van for me and 2 small dogs. I am saving your videos for future reference, perhaps within 6 months. God bless and keep you both.
Can you believe we no longer have recycling in the entirety of Chaffee county. Another part of trash, we are getting swamped with boondockers and more of them don’t pack it out if you pack it in. This includes human waste. Becoming a huge problem. If you could please include in videos information on waste(human or trash). Seems self explanatory but it’s lot anymore. Tourists are welcome, just realize some live here full time. That goes for any destination. Much thanks.
Just so you'll know and others will know also camping in the bottom of a wash like that is incredibly dangerous. No there isn't any water there now but when there is rain even miles away that could become a torrent and you would be stuck in the middle of it. Never ever camp in one of those areas. Always camp in the high areas near those places. It literally can be deadly.
Great video. I am going to be boondocking through the summer and your video was a lot of help. That area is beautiful! And those "owl hoots" at about 9 min in sounds a lot like the pitch/tone/loudness of what I heard in southern CO a year or so ago. It sounded odd but I shrugged it off and let's just say... it turned out not to be owls. 😳
So happy we found your channel! Thank you for all the great boondocking info, we are going to be taking our first RV trip in October and we downloaded every app you suggested LOL oh and that spot was AMAZING, Ya'll are living the dream! Heading to check out more videos now
Glad you found us too! Wishing you well on your first trip! I'm sure it will go wonderfully - even if there are hiccups that's a part of this lifestyle. Hope you enjoy :)
Thanks for the great information and sharing the cool locations! I am really intrigued with the scooter and would love to hear your thoughts on having a scooter vs a toad. We are in a smaller class A and are considering both options. Welcome back to the composting toilet club as well. Boondocking game changer! Best, Todd in Oregon
Thanks for the warm welcome :) So happy to be back. That's a good video idea, we'll have to consider that! There's pros and cons to each for sure. - Liz
That makes more sense now! We always want to pronounce the town names with a Spanish accent but in the USA their always pronounced gringo style. Thanks! - Liz
So much glass... There's no reason. It's simply that they are living a disconnected life. It's the responsibility of us, with clear sight, who care enough to clean up the mess left by behind by sleep walkers. I try not to let it ruin my stays, but it definitely bothers me. This has been a problem for over a hundred years since before the pioneer trails to the west. I'm reading "The Journey of Crazy Horse" a Lakota oral history. The natives of the time before the treaties were very disturbed by the amount of household items and dead animals strewn along the sides of the pioneer trails by early euro americans. - Dennis ✌️
Omg Alli wants your Avocado-holic shirt! Wants to know where ya got it as she is an Avocado-Holic LOL. great video and what a beautiful location! Alli is so wanting to RV to Colorado as well. 😁
Eat See RV Alli was wanting us to go this Christmas break like we did going to the Grand Canyon last one but i said NO! would be too cold and roads probably bad lol. Summer is only time I would wanna go!
That'd be interesting for sure. It's been done but I don't think it's prime time unless you love skiing and honestly in that case id just go to a resort!
Thanks so much for the PSA, I really appreciate you guys taking the time to care and share. I thought you got a new Mavic Mini a few episodes back, what did you use to get it to follow you in that shot of scooter going back to the BLM site?
🤩 Thank you so much Rudy! We have stickers available for sale on our website or we will send you one when you become part of the patron community! - Dennis ✌️
I'll have to check that video out! We are going to be making these announcements more regularly on the channel. Unfortunately I don't think this message is being heard by those who need to hear it. I am actually frightened by the amount of public land closure news because of misuse that I have read in only the past few weeks! Something has to and well be done about "campers" trashing public lands. But I fear the result will be that none of us get to enjoy them. I just bought a trash picking claw and a job site push magnet to clean what I can around the camps we visit. - Dennis 😢
Agreed with what you said about the “rules” of public lands use. If you start a forest fire, you could be financially responsible. The site you were at looked great. Ha, ha.....the composting toilet order was backed up.
You have to keep an ee out when campingn on BLM or FS land for what is called out west, is school laond which doesn’t allow campng. On topo maps it show grey highlights.
It's a Yamaha Xmax 300 maxi-scooter. The scooter options are a bit limited in the US market. But basically the decision was based on a mixture of curb weight, 2-up comfort, highway speed ability, under seat storage and price. The xmax won because it can store 2 full face helmets under the seat eliminating the need to store them inside the RV, it has a large comfy seat with a passenger backrest option, it'll do 80mph 2-up easily and is as stable as any sport bike I've owned while doing so, it only weighs 397lbs making it perfect to carry on the hitch with our Mototote carrier, and since we bought it used it was very affordable. The other scooters I considered were lacking under seat storage space, way to heavy, too expensive or a combination of negatives. Here's a link to our video about the xmax if you want to get a closer look. 👇 - Dennis ruclips.net/video/mtwyxrdvHv4/видео.html
I'm pretty sure we shared it in the video and in the video notes section underneath. It was just outside of Salida, CO. Download The Dyrt app and search around Salida you'll find it! Thanks for watching! - Dennis ✌️
Another enjoyable video. In going onto BLM or NF for dispersed camping, have you had any issues or roads you couldn't go down with your rig? And thank you for the PSA...it seems with Covid and the resultant popularity of RV/Van Life, more people are out camping and not treating our precious resource as they should.
Thanks Don! We've definitely seen some roads that we would not attempt in our rig, especially out here in Colorado. But, we've also pushed passed our comfort zone and have realized the rig can handle a little bit more than our nerves can 🤣 Unfortunately, mistreatment of our public lands isn't a new occurance. I fear though that it is being greatly amplified by the recent explosion of new campers. 🤦 I'm pretty much just cleaning up as much as I can around where we camp to try and offset those who don't care to clean up after themselves. I can't even be mad about it anymore, I just try not to let it ruin my stay. - Dennis ✌️
So happy I found you guys! First time watcher and sub! Well done video with very usable content....especially the apps. I will be FTing as soon as I find my rig. Been researching and planning for almost 3 years now. I relate so much to you 2 because I'm looking for the same type 24ft diesel rig, will pull my motorcycle, and travel with my cat! The question I have for you that is most concerning for me is that I plan to boondock a lot, park my RV and then take my motorcycle out and explore....perhaps up to 6 hours at a time away from my campsite. How do I make sure my cat is comphy while I'm not there? Do you leave windows open? What about potential break-ins if you do? Your thoughts and/or suggestions are surely appreciated. Cheers!!
That's awesome! Glad to hear we have fellow cat and motorcycle friends here :) We make sure to stay in temperate climates. We keep our Maxx air fan on or a window or two if necessary. If we're ever concerned it will get too hot we wouldn't leave them alone. But that hasn't happened often. - Liz
Didn't look like a dry wash it was someone's private property gate behind us so it's like a road. We keep an eye on weather when boondocking to avoid things like that though - Liz
Great video, except I did not hear what blm site you were using where you stayed 6 nights. What is this blm site? Is it San Luis State Park? I saw that in one of your many advertisements (the dyrt one) during the video. Great information in your advertisements though.
I can't lie - I did have to turn the music down whenever it kicked in and then back up when the talking started. Hopefully this feedback is useful. :) :) :)
Yes we found the part (waterfall)? It is helpful. We didn't realize it till we want back to figure out what part that happened on. I don't think annoying loud music was the best feedback haha but your comment was!
Yes you can. I think there is a bucket people use that gets dumped. Most BLM, forest, or public land is available to RVs and tent campers. I don't think 100s are pooping in the dirt :)

I camping here at the spot where you recorded this video in October 2022 and it's all you say it is. Thanks!
I’m not a camper but appreciate your taking the time to educate about the etiquette. We ride bicycle distance and stop at various public . 👍🙏
So important! Safe travels - Liz

Thank you for bringing up such an important topic that isn't mentioned enough. #LeaveNoTrace
No problem! We will be talking about this more often on the channel for sure.
Thank you for watching! - Dennis ✌️
Wow what a beautiful spot and free! The water park looked like fun too. Take care guys. Cheers!!!
It was a great time! Cheers to you too! - Liz
Hi!!! You guys are amazing. Thank for you sharing all you know and all your learning. I just picked up my converted van. Sticking to campgrounds until i get more comfortable but your soooooo motivating me to free camp! Just joined boondockers welcome! thank you again. Love you guys!
Nice! Once you get out west there are so many options for boondocking.
Thanks for traveling with us! - Dennis
Wow, I imagine your big sigh and a squeeze as you rode the scooter down to your spot after a sweet day at the hot springs...great videography!
Yes. We were sooooo vegged out and happy to be home able to relax. Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful! I so wish we didn't have to leave Colorado so soon! We'll be back!
Definitely! So much to see and do. Next time 🤗

Great message at the end of video. We've encountered so much trash. Yes, we clean it up but why do people leave it there? Glass is the worst!
So much glass... There's no reason. It's simply that they are living a disconnected life.
It's the responsibility of us, with clear sight, who care enough to clean up the mess left by behind by sleep walkers.

Haha yes we see that! Thank you - we're going to ride it out. Shouldn't be too bad where we are. - Liz
I live in Poncha Springs now and would like to know how to find this area.
Agreed with what you said about the “rules” of public lands use. If you start a forest fire, you could be financially responsible. The site you were at looked great. Ha, ha.....the composting toilet order was backed up.
Hahaha right crazy? It was a great spot.
You have to keep an ee out when campingn on BLM or FS land for what is called out west, is school laond which doesn’t allow campng. On topo maps it show grey highlights.
Thanks for the heads up. Is that school land?
What type of cycle do you own and how did you decide which one to buy?
It's a Yamaha Xmax 300 maxi-scooter.
The scooter options are a bit limited in the US market. But basically the decision was based on a mixture of curb weight, 2-up comfort, highway speed ability, under seat storage and price.

Remember trappers are trapping coyotes on many of these lands. Keep a close eye on your dogs. Learn how to release a trap and snare
Thanks. We don't have a dog. And have never seen trappers on any of the public lands we camp on. At least not out west.

Not sure if it's my problem but the sound is very low then very high.....

One section to another... volume changes
Thanks sorry about that!
Same here - on this video and the Airhead video. Both great videos though. :)
Are you in a dry wash? What if it rains? Just asking. I don’t know the answer.
