I live and work in this part of Idaho and since you were there that fire has burned more than 112,000 acres and is still burning. Many volunteer fire departments from small towns in Idaho have been on the fire to help protect homes and businesses. My brother and nephew are on our local volunteer fire Department (Richfield ID) and volunteered their time for several days on that fire. So far no one has been hurt and they are lifting evacuations as the fire is now burning in the forest and will most likely burn until snow falls. The fire is called the Wapiti Fire. Please be safe out on the road and I hope you love our state of Idaho as much as I do! Cheers...
Firefighters from Idaho assisted our firefighters here in Oregon at the Durkee fire. 450,000 acres were burned caused by lightning. We people in rural areas are always at risk from Mother Nature but mostly from man.
My wife and I were sitting in the RV watching this video tonight and when Sondra said "It is a good thing he is wearing orange so the search team and helicopters can find him" we both cracked up! Great video! Sad about the wildfires but the vegetation will grow back. We do pray that the Lord protected the wildlife.
Did not read all the comments so I don’t know if anyone told you guys. Traveling Robert mentioned you guys, Big Truck Big Travels during his Friday Live VLOG. You guys are famous!
I’m 74 with health issues that limit my mobility. Lost my weight on Keto but have to strengthen muscle mass bet I can. You have been my eyes and legs. Your videos make me believe I’m there! Thanks so much, Robin😊
PS. I watch a couple “Herping Chanel’s “ (don’t ask). When crawling around by those rocks, watch where you put your hand. Those critters with the tail rattles like to get between those rocks. Stay safe!
@@bigtruckbigtravels Hahaha! It is, but this young man has a ton of followers. And Lord knows it has taught me, a snake phobic, to identify snakes and learn about them. On Coastal Georgia we have a ton of them. 😂😂😂😂😂
We love you guys! And we don’t even have an RV or camp in tents anymore! We recently watched your videos back to back!! Now--We look forward to following you weekly along the way! You both seem like sweet, kindred spirits to me!! 🙂
Just wonderful to be married to your best friend! It’s what matters the most! 🎉 **I’ve seen you two go everywhere in your home. There have been times I’d wonder if you’ll fit. But always manage to get in 👏👏👏👏👏👏 PS. Love the awnings 🎉🎉
Sondra you are braver than me. There’s no way I would have crawled under the tree and then dragged the bikes. I would have left the bikes and walked. And I’m still very active for being 65. Once again, thanks for the scenery. My husband was trying to get my attention and I said to him, hey I’m in busy, I’m in Idaho. 😅
My wife and I are living the life vicariously through your videos, we really enjoy the travel and exploration of this beautiful country. Love your sense of adventure and discovery of nature at each of your stops along the way! Keep up the good work.😊
Sorry, Sandra got hurt, but the adventure is worth it. Thanks for inspiring me to work on my van on a heat advisory. I want to be in weather like that 😅. My prayers to all affected by the fire. Lots of love 305❤
Thanks for another lovely video! Wouldn’t miss a minute! Your timing was good to escape the wildfires- this year is beyond crazy, and even when somewhat contained fires will burn for months. That’s the case here - still smoky when the wind changes. I’ve never been so close to a fire, and I’d prefer not to be that close again! Sondra, hope your arm continues to heal. ❤
Interesting video. You probably have one of these maps. It's called a motor carriers Road Atlas. It shows all highways and the road atlas will show whether the roadway is suitable for travel with a big truck. The atlas has maps for all fifty states and Canada and Mexico. There is lots of great information such as low over passes and much more information. The pages are laminated. Generally all truck stops or major travel centers have these road atlas publications. Each year a new edition is published and the last copy I purchased was last year and the price was around fifty dollars. It takes all of the guess work out of whether a high way is suitable for travel with a big rig. National Park and National Forest and BLM managed lands have many recreational opportunities. The western states are definitely my favorite places.
We live each day just like when we were in our house…….except we are blessed to see new places, explore, learn new history. ….. we enjoy our RV life. Thank you for expanding our horizons. That waterfall was amazing! Loved the sounds. ❤
Now thats our kind of RV’ing…park & have fun for days. It’s precisely what we r doing on our final summer/fall trek for another 3 weeks. 2 grands r driving up for weekend…oh where does the time go …. Lots of fires this year 🇨🇦 ❤
Sondra, i hope your war wounds are healing. You'll have great battle scars. Every scar has a story, you know. I'm just amazed at the timing of your visit to that perfect campsite. You got to emerse yourselves in the natural beauty of the area. So very sad the fires wiped so much of it out. We're all very fortunate to have been there with you. So JUST WOW on that trailer hook up, woman! Yee Haw! This was NOT a boring video. Thanks for all your effort and for sharing your adventures. I'll never get out there myself, but "vicarious" is fine with me. 💕💗
Sondra is proud of her "battle scars"... and they are healing nicely. We were very fortunate on our timing for sure. Glad you enjoyed it and excited to have you along on the journey with us.
Like all your adventures, this one gives a lot of peace, Living in that paradise gives a lot of peace and the only thing that There were a few missing calcomanias
Thanks guys….. I appreciate how amazing, in this crazy Topsy Turvy world, you two found each other and maintained your friendship…..inspiring and fun to join you on your travels ……. Hope lots of young people are subscribed to your channel…..they couldn’t help but learn a lot! 👍🇦🇺❤️🫡
David and my husband are clones, loving to climb on hills.😂😂 I am glad Sondra didn’t hurt herself too bad. It is so sad to see wildfires destroying the beautiful land. Thanks for sharing your adventures.❤
As a solo female camper in a tent trailer I would pay for the campsite. Having pit toilets and other people around are necessary to feel comfortable. Sondra you make me laugh as I do everything to avoid seeing a bear. 😂
That was great to watch but the fires 🔥 are so bad 😢 I can’t believe you went under the huge tree with your bikes. Hope are healing Sandra. Thank You for taking us on your journey safe travels 🥰
Hmmm. The forest service (?) blocks off the trail to the waterfall so instead, David goes timber bashing and scrambling over rocks where he's much more likely to get hurt. Hmmm, maybe not what was intended when the trail was blocked off. 🙂 Thanks for another great video guys!
Random thought: “Ryan Hall Y’all” offers a weather station on his RUclips channel. He’s great at weather coverage! Might want to check out his weather station. Not sure if it’s conducive to RV travel, tho. Thanks so very much for all you do. WE LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
Wow. First off, David I could not look when you were climbing down to the waterfall. I was concerned you were going to be the one falling! It was beautiful and all was well in the end. I’m glad that you had left the area before you had to relocate involuntarily. Those fires are no joke. For something that was should have been fairly boring, it wasn’t. Beautiful scenery. Who knew that Idaho was so gorgeous? Sandra,sorry that no bear came up to say hello. Actually that might have been too much. Better luck with wildlife at your next stop. Continue to stay safe and heal from your boo-boos! Until next week, safe travels.
Oh the fires, we are approaching summer here in South Australia and the parks and wildlife, farmers and land owners are still controlled burning as haven’t had a catastrophic fire for about 4 years. It’s an awful thing to go through. Hope everyone has come through okay.
What great footage you got, the falls were so beautiful. Thank u so much, so very sad about the fires. im glad u got to take your time and enjoy ot before hand..
The e-bike adventure continued and after all that, it ends! That’s a lot of determination to see that water fall David. Beautiful Idaho, glad you enjoyed your stay.
@@bigtruckbigtravelshi keep up the awesome vlogs I really enjoy them I have just been diagnosed with ms and require a power wheelchair hopefully get one soon so I can get out and about again I do have a just giving page if you want to donate awesome stuff if not your prayers are very much appreciated
We do with friends. Generally, we're either relaxing and chatting by a campfire or busy doing projects and "office type" stuff inside... like editing videos or scrapbooking/Journaling! 😆 🤣
The Sawtooth Mountains are aptly named, so wild and jagged as they reach for the sky. I'm glad you had a good time just camping and exploring there. Hopefully a good soak will come along and put out those fires, I always worry about the wildlife. Sondra you should make shirts and stickers and such with Camp Hair Don't Care on them! See you next Thursday.
Really enjoy your channel, have two questions for you 1) thought I read most states limit RV's to 65 or 68 feet how do you get by at 72 feet. 2) I know your RV is not 10 years old yet but getting close. Have you ran into many places that ask this question?
RV's are definitely in a grey area of the length law. Lots of 45' motorhomes pulling 24' stacker trailers. We've never been questioned on the age or condition of our setup. And that's the key issue: what does your RV look like? If its well kept then no issues.
What an awesome boondocking spot! The waterfall was well worth the hike (at least for you David) not sure if I would have :-). Those power actuators would really come in handy - I am sure you think of that everytime you have to climb that ladder. Sorry Sondra about the fall - blame it on David for dragging you on that trail! Safe travels you two!
Glad you enjoyed it...hey! Don't blame it on me! 😆 😆 waterfall was cool. Steep hike for sure! I hope we can work out a few details on the actuators specs. Thanks
Looks so relaxing. It's not inflation, it's corporate greed!! Y'all had great timing. It's really sad that the area burned. Look forward to your videos.
Loved the video. Great effort to go this hill from the waterfall up and still show from 2 different angles, great! Idaho is so nice. We are RVing in Michigan right now, soon the fall colors will be spectacular. Safe travels, great video content!
Thank you for sharing this adventure! I am so sorry to see all the fires. I hope they’re naturally occurring. Mother Nature does what she needs to do. Man, on the other hand….smh. Safe travels!!
I hope so too, Mary! Not sure how they started but they are necessary from time to time. Hate to see the destruction but it's beautiful after 5 years or so. Appreciate your time watching the channel. Sondra is decorating more cards now because of you! Just sayin'... 😆
As always such a great video. Love the scenery and all the adventures you guys take us on. So sad about the wildfires in the area. Hope all those fighting the fires will be safe PS glad Sondra didn’t get hurt too bad
Such a beautiful area…. Sondra impressive hook up … so much thought and planning goes into these destinations and the work involved in sharing them with us all ….truly appreciated… stay blessed
I enjoyed it. 😊 Sondra glad you are okay. Hate the wildlife wasn’t showing out for you but they will soon. Hated to see the wildfires. So sad. Alabama has been dry but hopefully we won’t see fires.
Looks like you have not found too much smoke yet. Here in Central Oregon the smoke from wildfires is unhealthy. It is hard to find a place with clean air this week.
Great video of getting down and back up from that waterfall......good planning on the up and down shots! Bet that tired you out? Beautiful area, enjoying your travels. Thanks for the comments on your camping table.....need something new, so will check those out!
My dad his grandma and grandad lived in salmon. I lived there as a child. I remember the hot springs and the road you guys are on in that area. Was home to me at one time.
Early June my wife and I saw a Buck Antelope at your campsite. Stanley Lake has lots of memories... It's our family's main camping spot. I make many trips to Stanley yearly. The Wapiti fire has ruined so many camp spots and life long memories. sad... Our family camped there in June and went up to Kalispell Montana and visited Whitefish and Glacier. In mid - August we were camping Riggins, Moscow and Post Falls. I have been to those falls many times... Thanks for sharing... loved your vlog. Loved watching your Idaho series as I've been to most of those area's and have jet boated most of the Salmon and Snake. Be safe on those trails... I use my Trek Powerfly mtn bike and still crash (with helmet on...) sometimes...part of the experience. Between your camp spot and Stanley lake boat ramp we also saw a wolverine! also in June. When you hike hope you bring pepper spray. Your videos are great! Be safe! Mike
Glad you shared another adventure in Idaho...so sad what the Wapiti fire has done to the Stanley area...have fun in Montana...cant wait to see the next video 😊
I was going to camp near crater lake, OR a couple of weeks ago. Every side road was blocked by security guards and there were a couple of huge fire camps.
Enjoy your videos…and the length. Great rig you have…all the more perfect to travel. We travel full time…3 years…not bored one bit. Vacation all the time. There are the ‘oops’ days also
We were in Yellowstone for several days and only saw 1 bear. It was laying right by the Ranger Station as we were going out. Just had it's paws fold like it was there to make sure everyone got to see a bear
That's good. We try to scope out the wildlife on their terms (food chain, mornings, evenings or favorite areas). It's all a matter of timing... and luck!
Your trip timing was very fortunate, a lot of not everything your experienced is gone with the horrendous fires that struck our state. We probably won't see it again in our life time.😢
I live and work in this part of Idaho and since you were there that fire has burned more than 112,000 acres and is still burning. Many volunteer fire departments from small towns in Idaho have been on the fire to help protect homes and businesses. My brother and nephew are on our local volunteer fire Department (Richfield ID) and volunteered their time for several days on that fire.

Please be safe out on the road and I hope you love our state of Idaho as much as I do! Cheers...
Wow! That's terrible but glad no one is hurt so far. We didn't realize how close it was to us. Love Idaho. Great state.
❤❤❤thanks for all you do ❤❤❤ My dad was a full time firefighter 😊

Wow, thank you! Really appreciate the comments.
Beautiful area , what a shame about the fires.SONDRA HOOKS UP THE TRUCK LIKE A BOSS!
You got that right. She's done it over 1,000 times so yeah. She rocks it!
How sad to see the wildfires after. You two were blessed to have seen the beauty prior
We were very thankful for the opportunity to see the area right before the fires. Our video is probably the last of that area.
RUclipsrs never get credit for having to do everything twice. But I appreciate you climbed the cliff and then went back to get the camera 😂😂
😆 😆 hey! I don't know what you're talking about! It's "movie magic"! 😆 🤣 Thank you.

Fingers crossed, Elizabeth! This has been a crazy year for wildfires! We were very fortunate on our timing! Yay! Terrible that it happened.
Hot dogs are usually the arrival / setup first meal. Easy, fast and the introduction to “camping” 😊
Very true! For us, it's a "special" meal we have when camping... not everytime but for cool camping experiences.
Interesting video. You probably have one of these maps. It's called a motor carriers Road Atlas. It shows all highways and the road atlas will show whether the roadway is suitable for travel with a big truck. The atlas has maps for all fifty states and Canada and Mexico. There is lots of great information such as low over passes and much more information. The pages are laminated. Generally all truck stops or major travel centers have these road atlas publications. Each year a new edition is published and the last copy I purchased was last year and the price was around fifty dollars. It takes all of the guess work out of whether a high way is suitable for travel with a big rig. National Park and National Forest and BLM managed lands have many recreational opportunities. The western states are definitely my favorite places.
Yes, you are correct. We have an updated version in the truck and another in the RV for reference. We always double check the GPS routing. Thanks
Never late ...always on time. Also, never boring. 😁
Thanks, Raoul. Set your clock to it! 😆 🤣 Appreciate your time watching the channel.

1) thought I read most states limit RV's to 65 or 68 feet how do you get by at 72 feet.

Thanks. So far, no one is hurt but lots of burned forest land. Apparently, the area we camped was totally burned. Yikes!
What a wonderful time camping Love tge views and bike ride to see the lake and falls
Thanks, Debra. We loved our campsite!
Such a beautiful area…. Sondra impressive hook up … so much thought and planning goes into these destinations and the work involved in sharing them with us all ….truly appreciated… stay blessed
Our pleasure, Isabella! We're excited to have you along on the journey and glad you enjoyed it. 😊
I enjoyed it. 😊 Sondra glad you are okay. Hate the wildlife wasn’t showing out for you but they will soon. Hated to see the wildfires. So sad. Alabama has been dry but hopefully we won’t see fires.
Thanks, Larissa. Huntsville has been hot this summer. A fire would not be good.
Looks like you have not found too much smoke yet. Here in Central Oregon the smoke from wildfires is unhealthy. It is hard to find a place with clean air this week.
Sorry to hear that. It's no fun. We've had a few days this summer like that but we've been fortunate.
Such a terrible shame that the fires have destroyed so much of the area. Another great week of travel! Thanks for sharing! Safe traveling!
Thanks for watching! It's terrible for sure. We're glad we got to see it when we did.
Great video of getting down and back up from that waterfall......good planning on the up and down shots! Bet that tired you out? Beautiful area, enjoying your travels. Thanks for the comments on your camping table.....need something new, so will check those out!
Thank you, Don. Lots of fun getting to the waterfall and not too tired afterwards.
My dad his grandma and grandad lived in salmon. I lived there as a child. I remember the hot springs and the road you guys are on in that area. Was home to me at one time.
That's very cool. Beautiful area to grow up. ❤️
Early June my wife and I saw a Buck Antelope at your campsite. Stanley Lake has lots of memories... It's our family's main camping spot. I make many trips to Stanley yearly. The Wapiti fire has ruined so many camp spots and life long memories. sad... Our family camped there in June and went up to Kalispell Montana and visited Whitefish and Glacier. In mid - August we were camping Riggins, Moscow and Post Falls. I have been to those falls many times... Thanks for sharing... loved your vlog. Loved watching your Idaho series as I've been to most of those area's and have jet boated most of the Salmon and Snake. Be safe on those trails... I use my Trek Powerfly mtn bike and still crash (with helmet on...) sometimes...part of the experience. Between your camp spot and Stanley lake boat ramp we also saw a wolverine! also in June. When you hike hope you bring pepper spray.
Your videos are great! Be safe!
Mike
Thanks, Mike. We've really enjoyed the travels this summer.
Glad you shared another adventure in Idaho...so sad what the Wapiti fire has done to the Stanley area...have fun in Montana...cant wait to see the next video 😊
Thank you, Deborah! Will do that! The Wapiti fire is horrible for the area. I can't believe it has burned so much of that beautiful area.
If we were all in Middle School, your fan base would have been chanting - DO IT, DO IT, DO IT... Fortunately, we are all way more mature than that 😉
😆 🤣 well... most of us... 😆 🤣
Another good video
We like the electric bikes
Some beautiful scenery as well
Thanks 👍Glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Amazing views, and the fires look bad up there.
Very bad. We were fortunate but the area was hit hard.
I was going to camp near crater lake, OR a couple of weeks ago. Every side road was blocked by security guards and there were a couple of huge fire camps.
Oh wow! Not good. Hope you found a spot!
Another great video. You guys are amazing. Safe travels.
Thanks so much! We appreciate your time watching the channel. ☺️
Hey, when they promise big horn sheep, they should deliver big horn sheep!
That's what we were thinking! I mean the sign said, on the road! Oh well... thanks for watching the channel.
Beautiful scenery as usual, living vicariously through you nuts🤣God Bless you 💕🙏
Glad you enjoyed it and I guess we just "crack" you up!
I’ve lived in southern Idaho my whole life, and yes, it is a great and beautiful state! I just wish so many people would quit moving here!
🤣😂OK...I get it...I'll stop talking about it! Your secret is safe with me! 🤔🤣😎
Enjoy your videos…and the length. Great rig you have…all the more perfect to travel. We travel full time…3 years…not bored one bit. Vacation all the time. There are the ‘oops’ days also
Thank you very much. The "oops" days are weekly... it's just the magnitude of them which differs.
What a beautiful place to boondock. Loved the scenery. Always love to see y’all’s Whataburger cups. Have a great week. Gig em
Glad you enjoyed it. That's a little bit of Texas always with us!
MORNING - GREAT TO SEE YOU TWO!
Morning! It's wonderful to be seen!
We were in Yellowstone for several days and only saw 1 bear. It was laying right by the Ranger Station as we were going out. Just had it's paws fold like it was there to make sure everyone got to see a bear
That's good. We try to scope out the wildlife on their terms (food chain, mornings, evenings or favorite areas). It's all a matter of timing... and luck!
I call you adventurous that's what I call you. Have fun with your adventures.
Thank you, Marcia! Glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Totally awesome video you guys - who knew Idaho was so beautiful!
Thanks so much! We were blown away by it. Thanks for watching.
41:11 wow wow wee. So worth the hike
Oh... it was!
Your trip timing was very fortunate, a lot of not everything your experienced is gone with the horrendous fires that struck our state. We probably won't see it again in our life time.😢
Thanks, Tom. We definitely had great timing for a terrible occurrence. It will be years before it comes back. Sad 😔
Nice video and
Views before the fire
Thanks. Probably the last shots....sad.
THE DEER THAT WAS AWESOME !!!!
Pretty cool! Love how they bound around.
Yes i'm the one who actually prefers the relaxed videos, so this was great for me...
Glad you enjoyed it! Whew! Because it was a relaxing week for us.
We had a potato chip bag open going up Clingmans Dome in the Smokey Mountains.
Oh yeah. A little altitude will do it.
Idaho has geothermal springs all over. In fact, some of the buildings in Boise are heated that way.
Wow, Sherry, that is sooo cool! Did not know that. Thanks
Appreciate you two and your videos!
Thanks for watching! We're grateful for the time you spend watching the channel.
Amazing adventures. We travel some but no solar so we dont go off grid. Love seeing all the things you do. Look forward to seeing whats next.
Awesome! Thank you! Next week is what's next!
Such a beautiful spot! Too bad about the wildfires. The Salmon River area is so pretty.
It really is, Phyllis! We've enjoyed this route.
So happy to see you guys are safe. Safe travels to you guys and enjoy your channel
Thanks so much! We appreciate your time watching the channel.
