- First day was kind of a bust. I broke my tent, the one I just got a new rain fly for.... but the winds were absolutely crazy. Luckily the next day was pretty awesome!

There is no better vacation than being in nature! Thank you!
Would you like to try a colorful fire next time?
It was great to see you and your brother hanging out! It has inspired me and my brother to hit the road soon. congrats on another great video brotha!!
What a nice trip! Pity so much air on the first day, and that your tent broke. The one who invented the adhesive tape should be made a monument. I hope you will soon repit the experience of those marvellous landscapes. A sincere hug, Rob. Take care of yourself.
Gracias Miguel! Yes, it's a pity the tent broke but it should be an easy fix if I can get the part. I always keep some tape on me just in case!
Had to go to the desert “to cleanse your soul” after 5 days in Vegas 😂.
Great shots, Rob. Beauty in its own way.
Thanks for sharing.
haha it's true Mark! I don't really part too much these days so Vegas was a shock to the system. I think I'm still recovering now
Absolutely gorgeous view 👍
That marmot test is so great...I keep getting other ones hoping for better. But I think that tent just plain works 😁
I love it! I've realized for me personally I like a tent that has poles with 4 points of contact with the ground. Not to mention the room inside that thing is awesome
So amazing place...thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it Marcelina!
Another sweet video mate! Sorry about the idiots🤬
Notice the tent you used mate on the desert high winds part of canyon! here in our country we are use of experiencing high altitude high winds camping. Maybe just a suggestion to include some type of "AERODYNICS TENT" to your gears that can withstand high wind haha.
Aww, poor little boy
Road trips are the best.
Sure are! Wish I could spend more time on the road to be honest
What beautiful country
It's stunning! It looks more like Africa than America!
Your brother seems interesting as well. I'm with him. Glad y'all are getting to spend time together. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy.
Thanks so much! It was the first time I've seen anyone in my family for more than two years so I had an absolute blast
Absolutely beautiful scenery.
It really is Scott! Think I will probably spend my springs out there from now on if I can
Thank you for the scenic views they were amazing, great video
Glad you enjoyed it! I had a great time exploring
Very nice. Some people are truly ignorant and that was the best thing to do. Karma will get them for it. I hope your brother is warm enough in the outfitter tent. You can get a spare tent pole at REI stores. Just carry one from now on. Great video, TY for posting
Thanks David! Yeah I need to grab one, luckily the poles are ok but the clip that holds them together snapped. I looked on marmots website and they sell spare parts
Butiful country.great video
It really is Melvin!
I live north of this area and we have had some intense wind the past couple of weeks. I’ve lived here most of my life and we always have wind but it was level 10!
Not sure when you were out there, but if it was recently I’m impressed you lasted at all!
Also chapstick up the nose would help in the future and thx for saying Nevada right! Haha
Thanks Danielle! We were there from like the 11th to the 14th and then 11th was super windy. Every day was kind of breezy but the 11th was crazy bad
Love the scenery!!
Thanks Todd!
When your tent pole snapped, I thought duct tape to the rescue, then the words appeared on the video. Moma said never leave home without duct tape boy. I never forget my duck tape. I learned about those quick to turn cold nights and I mean quick hitchhiking through Arizona in 1972.
Moma was a smart woman David! I never leave home without it! I either have it in my truck or in my backpack and use it to fix just about everything. Yeah those nights get cold super quickly, especially with those clear skies
You need a built, big comfortable 4x4 Suburban to sleep in. Forget the tents and no heat pickup bed.
Funny thing is Jerome, I was telling my brother in law that next time I would probably get a suburban instead. Simply because at truck stops and in parking lots etc it’s much easier to get into bed then going around the back
Brooks & Birches Exactly, and easy to escape grizzly bears up in Alaska. Lol :)
you should invest in a good windsock for your camera.
Beautiful spot despite the wind and cold. You should introduce your brother to your viewers next time. Is he camera shy?
Man I hate camping out in the middle of nowhere and some one decides to set up camp right next to me. Always off-roaders too, like they think they own these public lands or something. There's hundreds of other spots you could've stayed at, why are you here? lol
Me too! It happens more often than I would like as well. The amount of times I get a great site early and someone turns up at the end of the day and gives me the "we were really hoping to get this site...." Well it's first come first served and you came too late, I don't know what to tell you
❤️ 👍 🎥
People are not considerate anymore. That’s happens to us all the time.
It’s a real shame Lisa! I wish it wasn’t the case but some people just aren’t considerate
@@BrooksandBirches I’m a 70’s baby. From Florida. It used to be the normal to respect privacy.
They have the whole St John’s river . Now I’m 51 ,older . We just do what you did move on. Not worth the argument these days. Looking forward to more of your video. ✨🌴
Low humidity, nose bleeds
Thats exactly it! Happens to me every time I go out that way
Great trip so far, minus the camera and tent pole. We need a close up of the two of you,,,,your faces. I see the family likeness. Here in Texas, at my family place, for some reason there are a bizillion scorpians, which we never knew existed, tho occasionally we would find them in the house, ect. Well there in the yard, in the grass, every f---king where. I had seen people talk about uv flashlight, and got one. Thats when we realized they were everywhere. No more barefoot in the yard, or tenting, or anything friggin thing. Me and my nephew both got the 100 plus bulb uv flashlights and go on hunts. I have a hoe handle I use to smash em,, he has the hammer of death. Sometimes 100, 200, up the the highest 350 one night. I ordered it from Amazon, and it so much, well I don't know of fun is the word, but having been stung a few times, I have no problem dispatching them to scorpion heaven. If your are going to spend alot of time in the desert in the future,, I suggest investing in one,,, $25 or so. Plus it fun hunting them,, are florescent in UV light and glow bright neon blue. Easy to find. They detest sunlight, so when the UV light hits them, the get real uncomfortable real quick. No suggesting you dispatch yours, but it very interesting seeing them. Plus the flashlight make day glo fun, like at halloween. Anyway, back to your trip. Enjoying it so much. Hope you will get to Moab, and Brice canyon on this trip since you are close. Have more fun,, really enjoying it.
out of your element the desert is awesome place just be mindful of snakes scorpions and other things that seem safe but are deadly admire you choose to try desert camping it not the same water is gold in desert never waste a drop is my advise👍 9 may I ask what place is this it seems northern west best time yr is spring fall winter for camping summer you cook in day and freeze at night 40 point drops in temp make you cold fast
Yeah the temp went from 75 all the way down to 20 overnight and after a few days in the sunshine it really felt cold. Unfortunately due to having to move campsites late we couldn’t start a fire at night time
@@BrooksandBirches Good move changing campsite gut feeling always works best going with it... oh trick staying warm find dark rock crop they soke up heat all day a sleeping bag stays nice warm even pitch between them they nice and warm
Hung over ?????
Vegas Harold… Vegas….
Vendeme una gorra
Keep a stiff upper lip ;-) take care
Get rid of the Ford. Get a Toyota.
I plan on it Mike! My truck now has a recall out for a rattle in the engine.... My buddy has a Tundra with 300k+ miles on it and it runs fine. Guess what I'll be getting next
