Solo Travel in my Astro Van - Escaping the City and Seeing the Rarest Fish on Earth

- First of all, I'm so done with Vegas, that place isn't for me so much and I am so happy to be away from the city and back out in nature where I belong.
Pahrump was thankfully a big enough town to help me fill up on all my necessities before a long and extended period of time away from the cities. It also had a Home Depot..... Thankfully
Ever since I was like 16 years old I wanted to come and see the Devil's Hole Pupfish, and although I was not able to see the actual fish from that platform, I got to see their home which was good enough for me.
I feel odd for thinking that the Devils Hole was something I've wanted to see for so long but hey, it was epic.
I am very happy I got to see all those other Pupfish in the beautiful crystal clear spring pools everywhere else around Ash Meadows.
Never in my life did I expect to be a RUclipsr filming the Rarest fish on Earth.... Wow is my life crazy, thank you to all who watch these videos!

It is very nice that you say thank you to your mom and dad for everything I have a great deal of respect for you😊
They are the best, I wouldn’t be much without them… I think they deserve the respect rather than myself 🫣
You are an amazing son! I am so proud of you ❤️❤️❤️ Great video
As another Astro Van guy here, the "latch" on the front, is not a latch, it's a crash retainer. In the even of an accident, when the body shifts, that striker will engage in the hole it slots into to stop the door from coming away from the body... Only the back striker and latch, actually latch the door closed.
When you're having trouble with the door closing, it's usually the rubber bushings on the three slides that are out of wack that causes the door to close improperly. I usually oil all of the bottom track below the step, and I'll spray some oil on the last visible 4 inches of track at the back. Then I'll open and close the door a few times to get oil on the bushings.
If it still has issues closing, The bottom track bar(on the rear left of sliding door) has two(iirc Torx, or maybe bolt heads) you can loosen, and lift up on the door a bit, and retighten, to make sure the latch lines up perfectly with the striker.
This is extremely helpful bro, thank you so much for the comment and for talking with me on the Live Stream 🤟🤟
I’ll be sure to do exactly this
I didn’t know there was Popup Fish Still Around since the ice age. Very Interesting!
I love the tribute to your parents….they have to be proud.
I try to make them proud that’s for sure
Great video - beautiful and amazing shots of the fish. I had never heard of them - so great job of educating us as well. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m so glad you enjoyed! It was a fun one, thanks for watching
I really enjoy your vlogs and your adventures in the USA, you will be a very good vanlifer for ever
Great video as I just stumbled upon your channel and as a long time resident of Las Vegas for the past 14 years in the "concrete jungle", I am done being surrounded by 2.5 million full time residents and 40 million visitors a year!!! Kudos :)- Dude the video you took of the fish underwater would make a killer screen saver!!! :)-
😁😁
Wow looks like a cool stop on your travels. Your Mom and Dad must be very proud of you. My son is finishing up his season as a snowboard and ski instructor living in his van in Colorado. We are very proud of him. Thanks for keeping use up with your adventures.
I try to make them proud of me, I owe it to them, that’s for certain.
I grew up in Las Vegas. It is a shithole. Vegas was nice back in the 70s and 80s but by 2000 it was gross. Kudos to you for showing young people how to be self reliant and bold. I'm retired in SC, kids grown, wife working for a few more years and I'm planning some extended van life road trips around the U.S. I hope you have a little "just in case gun" tucked away in that van. If not, consider getting one. Stay aware and stay safe.
All you need to do for your water jug is to drill a hole the same size as the hose inthecap. The hose has to be long enough to reach the bottom of the jug. You push the hose through the hole in the cap so it reaches the bottom of the jug. No fittings needed.
I’m happy I found your channel so early, I have been watching for a while and can’t see where you go with this channel🙏🏽
I’m happy you’ve stuck around! Thanks for the support, I hope to not disappoint 🫣😎
Thank you, for sharing your adventures with us. I like the longer videos, you speak to us like we're right there with you. Had no idea D.Vly. had the Puffer Fish, that's cool! Yes, grow a beard, enjoy yourself. Your Parents must be awesome people, coming to LV to see you, they missed you a lot I'm sure. Stay well & stay safe. Do you have a Patreon yet? Happy Trails! 👍🚚
I have lots of long ones coming up! It feels the most natural to talk directly to the camera like I’m talking to a person, it makes it much easier 😂
My parents are the most awesome people, and no I don’t have Patreon yet but possibly in the future
Awesome job! I really have been enjoying your videos and watching you grow as a Vanlifer. From the crazy adventures with millions of spiders, to soaking in hot springs, to fishing and seeing places that nearly no one in today's world gets to see inspires me so much. I know you look at all of the comments on you videos because you say it all the time and I just thought I would thank you for being yourself in a world where being yourself is frowned upon by a lot of people. Keep living your dream and I can't wait to see more!
I sure do read every comment bro, it takes me a while but I get to it eventually. I wanna say, thank you so much for the kind words. You are right, I feel like I’m living more than most people ever get the chance to live. I’m glad I can share it with you all!
Thank you so much for the comment and for watching all these videos
Hey B you are so charismatic, funny and brave. I love your videos, you inspire me to start the same adventures and I am going to do it but in my country Mex. Please keep that mustache, it is your personality. F*"#ing love you my man.🤟😎
Hey man, It makes me so happy to know I inspire you, it makes it all worth it 💪
Good luck with your adventures, don’t be afraid to reach out if ya have any questions!
Mustache is staying 😎😎
Developers piss me off sometimes! Of all the land out there they gotta pick the spot that’s very important to those fish surviving! I’m glad they put the kibosh on it 👍🏻 very cool little fish though, great vid ✌🏻🇨🇦 ps cute little fish and wow that water was amazing!
The water is incredible, I’m glad it was saved for me to be able to witness this beautiful area
SuperDuper❤!
Your videos are so amazing. Ok so yhe pup fish were beautiful and that history on them awesome. Im starting a long van adventure and thanks to you im adding a few spots to my list of must sees.
It’s worth checking these little guys out!
A great upbeat and educational video. very interesting about the rare fish! You're lucky to be out west, I drove my van out west from the east coast a couple years ago and was amazed by the wide open spaces and the gorgeous landscape! Keep up the good work it inspires me to take another trip!
Go for another trip!! It’s those memories that matter most
Hey Bronson, Death Valley is such a cool place to visit except in the summer. And yes venison is very tasty but I also like elk. As always, you're cooking looks so delicious and you make me hungry lol. It's amazing that you are traveling to pretty much the same places that I also went to as I guess we both like the desert scenes--especially the pup fish that would be so awesome in an aquarium. The desert has a habit and just grows on you as there is so much to see. Your underwater and desert photos are always so awesome dude:)
I’m glad you enjoyed the adventure! One day we will go on an adventure together 🤟
@@bgrace27 I will be looking forward to that💥
If you have a chance and are in southern New Mexico you should check out the White Sands Pupfish...love all those little guys!
White sands pupfish??!!! Heck yeah I’ll be checking them out one day! I never knew they existed
yes grow your beard out man! im glad you found the straw on the grease can i was like shouting "use the Straw!"....lol...nice adventure video!
Haha I’ll be growing it out 🫡
Hey B, I hope this helps out with your sink repair. Live long and prosper. I enjoyed your video.
You know it will help me my friend! Thank you so so much. I never knew what to expect when starting a RUclips channel but it certainly wasn’t this amount of kindness ♥️
It’s people with care like you that leave me with a good feeling the whole day, so THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!
@@bgrace27 I am on kidney Dialysis B. I would love to do what you are doing. I have to stay close to home for my treatments. Watching you travel around is a good thing for me and I like your van. Keep your eyes open, don't trust strangers and don't put yoursel at risk. Get all of this traveling aroud out of your system, find a stable carer and save for your future B.
Love the underwater shots!
They are my favorite to do
Im glad i don't have a sliding door.. I'm glad your out of the city .. the ford van passing you at 7 min mark haha thought you'd say something.. oh man the sticker van is boss!! I would of heated the hot glue with lighter for temporary fix .. FOOD LOOKS YUM DEER OHYEAH glad you got that time with your parents :) Fish were cool! TaKE CARE STAY SAFE THINK SMART :)
I might not have said nothing about the van but my brain was thinking about it 😂😂
Love your videos. Very informative. Thank you for sharing your adventures! From Mel in Australia 😁🦘👍
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching Mel
Man you are living the dream! Such a cool van set up! I subscribed!
Welcome to the channel!
Thanks!
Wow thank you so much man, it means the world to me! 🫶🫶🫶
Fantastic episode man, you nailed it here! Love it 👏👏
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Very cool
love the fast progression ur having with ur videos, saluti from Italy, lovu man❤ (p.s. want to rip some pasta w you)
All the way from Italy! That is insane to me. I’m so happy you are enjoying. I’d rip some pasta with you anytime 😂
I love your videos! My wife and I are planning on building out a van and traveling in September and it’s inspiring seeing people our age doing it! I was wondering, how much are you able to make off of RUclips/merch?
Nice 👍
Great video!
I have found the best lubricant for sliding doors is LPS 2 I have found this to be the best over many years of usage😊
I’ll look it up, thank you so much
hi its been a while you look good :) keepsafe always❤️
Thank you so much!
What gorgeous scenery to wake up to, I woke up to snow this morning 😅
Snow is great and all but views like that are hard to beat hahaha
It's good to be aware of your food supply, dude, I never go by the expiration dates because that is BS trust me it is good WAY past expiration (vacuum sealed items only)!
That’s so true, it’s always seems like just a scam so you buy more food
Impressive!
I’ve often said there is magic in the desert and the Pupfish are a part of that!
Thank you for sharing, you really are awesome!❤
Pupfish are so fun, thank me for the watch and the compliments !
I am a huge fan of deer meat. Have you had elk or moose? Both are delicious.
Ohhhhh yeah I’ve had both and they are equally delicious
Nice
Very good video .just future reference you aren’t supposed to use the same utensil for raw meat and other foods
I love meat too‼️
Hey Bronson! Love your channel, new subscriber here. Did you have any issues with your rear doors leaking? I’m a fellow Astro/Safari owner. Just curious, thanks!
You have no idea, it was bad.
The previous owner decided to take out the 2 panel doors and replace it with the 3 style doors I have.
Needless to say they did a shit job and put zero effort into sealing it.
When I bought it I had legit a stream of water running in from all 4 doors whenever it rained, snowed or anything.
I used a ton of chalk, door sealer, sticky car foam and patience to get it all sealed up.
It now won’t leak at all but yeah it was a pain in my butt
Broken jug hose fitting? Who needs a fitting? Buy a longer hose and just shove the hose all the way down to the bottom of the jug. The cap's hole should be a snug fit.
I also hate Vegas. Too peopley. Love your content. I'm a new fan. Love your copper bracelet. Where did you get it?
I made my copper bracelet! I was an electrician and always took scrap wire
@@bgrace27 it's very nice
Love your videos!! What are you using for editing program? How many hours of editing in a typical video? And what camera equipment are you using?
Appreciate you 😊
I use DaVinci Resolve - it’s free and honestly pretty dang good.
Most videos are around 7-10 hours of editing plus another 1-2 for upload. Pain in the butt sometimes.
My biggest video took roughly 60 hours to edit. It’ll be coming out in a month or so!
I use a Sony A6700, iPhone 14 Pro, GoPro hero 11, and DJI mini 2 for the drone shots
Is that a CIGs solar panel? If so, how many watts you pullin on a typical sunny day?
No it’s a cheap one off Amazon, it’s a 200w and the most I’ve ever got was 170w
Yes, meat. I am a meatatarian
From South Africa clock in number 60.... do I love meat...😮
I'm africkaans
I'm South African
We invented meat..... well biltong actually.....
Sorry to bust your bubble, If you haven't had biltong..... you ain't had meat..
Impala / gemsbok / kudu / eland / bontebok ..... Yummmmmmmmm
I’ll have to try bultong but first I gotta look up what it is!
cualquiera puede ver lo que vistes en las vegas. Pero muy pocos pueden ver lo que vistes en death valley. sigue simple. Es mucho mejor
I agree, Death Valley is much more unique
