Hello Chris, You often mention investing in another type of adventure vehicle. One of the reasons I am a regular viewer on your channel is I love watching your orange jeep. It is your co-star. I love how it looks taking on the world and whatever life throws at it. As viewers we can only watch you consume so many hotdogs😀. If you sell this jeep get another.
Chris, you are truly blessed and fortunate to be on this journey and your skills with the camera and editing are superb in my opinion. Some of the shots in this edition simply awesome, thank you.
Chris my wife and I just returned from an Oregon trip visiting family, twelve days on the road. Not a Jeep owner yet, financial and other reasons holding things up, also waiting to see what the Bronco looks like in comparison. I agree with others that your style of video is much superior due to the lack of music, people go to the wilderness to escape their hectic everyday lives, to get into a quiet environment where they can recharge. Watching your adventures is like a weekly escape for me, keep doing exactly what you’ve been doing.
Chris, I have watched your video every week for years, It's such a treat not to hear music. However, I would really like to see what your blood work looks like after years of hot dogs, Pizza and bits of Spinach. Need you healthy. Keep the Jeep its you this is part of who you are. Peace safe travels.
Curiosity kills the cat....except the cool cat, Chris Shontz :) You make me wish I were back living on that mountain near North Bend when I was stationed at the radar site above Hauser. As I stepped out of the Dispensary door the view of the Pacific Ocean was spectacular. Only fog and heavy rain blocked that view. That was 1969 and that view lives in my mental gallery. From our base housing trails led down the mountain, up and along the ridges. An old logging trail, a short hike, could take us to Ten Mile Lakes and there was no end to trout, perch, blue gill and more. Oregon is a paradise and once this pandemic eases I will load up a Uhaul and move back there. Thank you, Chris, for your incredible videos...keep exploring and I wish you well.
Another great video Chris. You're our favourite RUclipsr to watch with our morning coffee sitting in our Jeep. Very relaxing. Hi from Australia, Chris & Ange
This is the first time I have ever seen a video with no views . When I logged on it said that it was loaded 16 seconds earlier , now that is timing . After watching the video I reloaded it and it was up to 774 views in the time it took to watch it , very cool . Chris once again gave us some spectacular sights .
very cool seeing how they do the roof top tends. And the gorgeous Oregon country. As always, appreciate seeing beautiful country, and ideas for places to go myself. And, like the last commenter, am very glad you don't have loud lame music!
Found your site about a month ago and love every minute of it. Just do what you do and we enjoy it greatly. I’ve binged watched all episodes. Exquisite!
I just founded your channel less then 2 weeks ago and Im watching your videos nonstop like in a Marathon. I'm dreamin to buy one day a Jeep and travel around with my Camera, always wanted to be a photographer. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.
I would remove that troublesome sway-bar disconnect and throw it as far as I could. I installed a Curry Anti-Rock sway bar on the front of my rig, and no more connecting/disconnecting the sway bar. The Curry sway bar is actually a torsion bar that you adjust to your preference when you install it. You can stiffen or soften it, if your preferences change. It always applies just the right amount of pressure when you need it and allows great articulation off road. On road or off road, it's always doing the job. I highly recommend it. I've had one on my rig for about 10 years and love it.
I always look forward to your adventuring with you on Saturday morning. That's awesome that they were able to replace the tent for you. It looks great!
One man's bad road is another man's good road. I remember back in the day we did a trip in a rented C Class RV up in BC and there was that sign that said "4WD required" - so we asked a local on a nearby farm if the RV could make it and he was like "no way, you need a Jeep or something" - so we asked whether the road was wide enough and he said yes. So we went - no 4WD needed, at least not in summer. When we came down the other side to a little village people didn't believe we drove that RV through there. The only hairy part was a very narrow bridge just barely wide enough for the wheels to fit on. Ever since I'm "I call it quits when I see it" :-)
@@uweschroeder I'm not gonna be one of them "oooo, you shouldn't have done that" people . But I will say, to put a thought in folks heads, that's why I love our Jeeps (and now a Sidekick as well)... if it gets to a point you have to turn around... how would you. Gonna get a sore neck from backing up for miles (through experience). I was on a shelf road that just got worse and worse ... I wouldn't have had enough gas for the chainsaw! But backing up a shelf road! Then the perfect spot to turn around... was RIGHT on the other side of a large diameter tree that had fallen in our path. Hee hee ... I cut it and turned around, after exploring ahead on foot, still broke a taillight. ... still, that's all part of the fun to me. The exploring and discovery.
@@explore_off_road You're right. These days I wouldn't do that anymore either. I usually tow a small trailer when I go on a trip and that makes backing up for extended distances a nightmare, particularly off-road. But then, we all get more cautious when we get older. Now I plan a route upfront - tools like gaiagps and satellite images making that much easier than 30+ years ago when all you had was a road atlas. You can still hit snags and I had to turn around by uncoupling, turning the trailer by hand, carefully sliding by it with the jeep and hooking it back up. There was just no way to turn around with the trailer (which is why now I extended the hitch so I can make much tighter turns without hitting the trailer with my fender)
Chris, In one of your posts about a year ago (?), you had the same recurring issue with your electronic sway bar disconnect. Since I had the same problem w/ my 2013 JKU Rubicon, I suggested you consider remove the electronic disconnect and install a manual one which is easy to install and use. Since this issue has raised its ugly head again, now you might want to look into the manual replacement. The one that my local shop (RockYour4X4) put on my JKU, I never again had that issue. It is made by Evo Manufacturing. Since you travel alone, it might be worthwhile.
I replaced mine as well with the EVO off-road manual disconnect. My issue ended up not being the electronics, but it was water getting into the locking cam and corrosion. I cleaned it up and used marine grease and haven’t had an issues since. I have done several deep water crossings so it’s probably time to do preventative maintenance.
Beautiful fottage this week, especially the shot of you in the foreground with the snow capped mountain in the background. Your narration is excellent.
Both Amazon and any big box sporting goods store sell an adapter hose so you can use either an 11 lb or 20 lb propane tank on your Coleman. Those green 1 lb canisters are an incredibly expensive way to buy propane. Plus they are difficult in most jurisdictions to recycle.
Great video. I am glad your are going to slow your roll and spend some time in Montana. One stop should definitely be Glacier National Park! While you are there stretch your legs out on the Continental Divide Trail for a few days. Stay safe.
super souler I think he avoids national parks because he doesn’t like the crowds. I recall a couple years ago he did go to Yellowstone national park, but I think it was in the off-season.
Great video Lotta scenery guys look like they did a good thing on putting your new top one back on the road and into Montana thanks so much for taking me along have a great day
Looking at my track on GAIA from last summer, looks like we were on the same road, at least from Magee Picnic Site to MT 200. Drove it with a truck camper; no real issues. We'll be keeping an eye out for the orange Jeep in NW Montana.
Chris, I don’t see you respond to comments however perhaps you do read them. I have been with you from day one. Your videography/photography are unparalleled . You have a calming nature about you that lures one back weekly. It is a this point that I sense your frustration and perhaps mine. 150,000 miles of endless wandering. You appear to be in a hurry to to get nowhere. Years of air up/air down, deploy your pop top, make your coffee and dispersed throughout, some scenery . Yes it is a peaceful thing to see! NOW imagine!!! You traverse across the country,150,000 more miles on the Jeep, more airing up and down,more deployment of Ursa Minor, more coffee making , ONLY NOW WITH A PURPOSE. !!! A week long trek through the backroads of America to help build a school. The next week, a trek to someone in need of home repair or natural disaster repair. The next week a trek to a remote area to bring a box of food to someone in need. The next week a trip to donate 50 dollars to someone’s utility bill. Perhaps a trip to an area to take someone grocery shopping who doesn’t have transportation. You catch my thoughts. You now have purpose that you yourself have said on multiple occasions you would like to have. You are helping others. We still get great footage. The channel grows and perhaps catches on! Let the next 150,000 miles mean something. I sense you would be happier. Look forward to the next video. Be safe!!!!
Why can’t he live his life he wants to? He doesn’t need to live someone else’s life. Sorry, I don’t get it that ppl always want to tell other’s how to live, what to eat, what fear they should have and so on. You get the 💡? Cheers
Chris, If your still in Idaho, check out the drive from Orofino to Hoodoo pass and over into Superior Montana. Once you leave Orofino and head east there is no services for approximately 90 miles though the wilderness. The road is mostly dirt but does have some asphalt paved areas. It runs along different river systems and has some amazing sights. Its totally worth it. Check it out brother.
Really beginning to enjoy your work, you are always so chill it makes the show relaxing and enjoyable. My last trip around MtHood snow could be measured in the 10s of feet. It's a nice run up the side of the Columbia and through Idaho into Montana. Glacier is truly remarkable even when compared against the remarkable. Too bad the East side is shutdown.
Good Morning. I am in the Melrose, Montana area. Lots of things to see around here. I was born and raised in Homestake area outside Butte. Heading west on stake route 43 on Monday the 17th. Have a great time in my home state. Stay safe.
I love your videos ... you've inspired me to get out (along with my buddy saying "just go"). spent this last weekend up in Gifford Pinchot National Forest in WA ..exploring forest road 42 from east of sunset falls campground to Cougar Rock then to the lava fields ..was pretty nice. (and easy to get to from Portland BTW)
Chris - have you considered getting a manual sway bar disconnect to override your glitchy servo disconnect? EVO Mfg makes a manual rubicon swaybar disconnect kit. It is part #EVO-1087.
I like this guy. He does a great job of creating his own unique documentary. Many times I'm envious of him and his lifestyle. Having said all of that and on a darker note, am I the only one who thinks that he's really is Mr. Van Driessen from Beavis and Butthead? At times I swear I can her him say, "now boy's,... you need to pay attention. There are bears out here." Or some other logical caring advice directed to the two misfits. I imagine he's got an acoustic guitar hidden in that jeep somewhere. It's probably wrapped up in a tie died T shirt.
The "bad road" is 4610. I was just there last weekend on my dual sport bike but came from the other side which comes from Ladee Flats OHV area and you can continue to 224 and Estacada. I didn't make the entire loop just to the bridge some people made themselves to make it passable for motorcycles and hikers. But now I know where it goes and next time I will make a loop out of it. The other side is completely usable for Jeeps, I met a couple of guys in a Jeep having lunch at the bridge.
At some point we jeepers don't care about pin stripping anymore, we try to minimize it but it can't be avoided. I carry pruning shears & a saw if it looks like it's going to get really nasty..
If you wheel your Jeep, pin stripping is a normal sight. But if your Jeep is a garage Queen and Mall crawler, then pin stripping will bother you for sure.
@@tpseeker3367 I've seen the wraps in different colors, and they look good. I wonder how impervious they are to broken branches scraping the sides of the Jeep..
Love you channel but every video of you hiking, it's like you've got a #2 emergency coming up and you're trying to hide it. :) Maybe it's the taco bell? haha
Chris, to bad you went thru Coeur d Alene, where I live. I would have enjoyed visiting with you ! Sounds like you are near Troy, Montana, try to head up the Yaak River , then head East. Loads of roads to find something interesting!
Chris I dont know which way you are headed through Montana but I would check out Big Sky if you get down that way and really go check out FlatHead lake! Enjoy your time Chris it is truly Gods Country!!
One thing I was going to mention to you on your video from Medicine Bow National Forest to Oregon is to hit up a car wash when you go from one area to another so you don’t carry invasive species. I noticed your traction boards have dried mud and the Jeep is still a little dirty. Besides that keep up the great content and maybe educate people on was to keep from transporting invasive species.
Thank you so much for your lack of music, and wonderful nat sound. It sets you far apart from the other RUclipsrs. Great work.
I agree. I tried watching the new broncos and that music they put in detracts from the video. Can't stand it.
Agreed
Absolutely agree!
Definitely agree!
Couldn't agree more.

ORANGE GLADIATOR!!! and a dog
he should get a new JLU,R in Orange, mildly lifted, with 35's, with just a soft top, so he can get an Ursa Minor for for JLU,R..

Beautiful view of mount hood!
I enjoy the story you tell with your photography. Great job. cheers
Its like you stumbled into a story book, Mt Wood NF is so picturesque!

Dave's Killer Bread.....my favorite and the best. haha
Have you read the real life story on the side of that bread?
@@jeremiah1528 yep...heard he ended up back in but idk.....my favorite variety is "Good Seed" and once in awhile treat ourselves to "Raisin the Roof"
Some really beautiful scenery in this one! Can't wait to take off on my trip and get up that way next week!
Ursa Minor tent has performed very well when you consider it has been deployed over 600 times.
Chris. Being from the pnw and growing up skiing Mt Hoot that outcropping off rock with Hood to the North was the most phenomenal !
Stunning locations!!!
I always look forward to your adventuring with you on Saturday morning. That's awesome that they were able to replace the tent for you. It looks great!
The best overland channel. Pure freedom !! Keep um coming. 👍🏻
Good stuff bud. You were right “in my back yard” in the gorge. We’re so lucky to live here.
Awesome scenery....I loved the moose! Thanks for taking us along to Montana! I’ve never been! 😋
Typical Jeep people, when they see "road closed" ... or in this case, "Bad Road" ... "Well, how bad (closed) is it, really!?!" ... Love it!
Did you see that someone painted it to say RAD ROAD? Haha!
One man's bad road is another man's good road. I remember back in the day we did a trip in a rented C Class RV up in BC and there was that sign that said "4WD required" - so we asked a local on a nearby farm if the RV could make it and he was like "no way, you need a Jeep or something" - so we asked whether the road was wide enough and he said yes.

For those cables, an Anderson plug in the tent might be really nice. Then you can just unclip the cables and not have to remove the entire thing.

As always, you make me want to explore more.
Another great one Chris.
Take care
Another great journey thank you very much beautiful scenery watch yourself.👍👍😀🍁
Always the best thing on tv!!!!
Love the driving at night scenery!

Wow stunning scenery in this one! Out of the park!
Great video. I am glad your are going to slow your roll and spend some time in Montana. One stop should definitely be Glacier National Park! While you are there stretch your legs out on the Continental Divide Trail for a few days. Stay safe.
The West side is so scenic, but come to think of it: I dont recall ever seeing Chris do National Parks

Great video, sir. Looking forward to seeing Montana through the lens of your cameras. Stay safe and keep on keepin' on, brother!
Ha, I've camped at that spur where the truck was. It is indeed a great spot! Love seeing Oregon through your video!
Chris,
If your still in Idaho, check out the drive from Orofino to Hoodoo pass and over into Superior Montana. Once you leave Orofino and head east there is no services for approximately 90 miles though the wilderness. The road is mostly dirt but does have some asphalt paved areas. It runs along different river systems and has some amazing sights. Its totally worth it. Check it out brother.
Beautiful country up there. Another month or so it'll start getting ugly cold and snowy lol. Enjoyvand stay safe
Some great Scenic views .
Thanks again for your entertaining and informative narrative, can’t wait for next week!
If you do get another rig keep it the same color . Love this video cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A.
the view in this trip are so nice :)
Cool video
Thank you Chris..
Really enjoyed it.
Safe travels. 🙏🇺🇸👍
9:08 - shot of the year Chris, well done and thank you!

Wow. Magee!!! Used to camp there in the 60's. Up on Independence Creek. Turn left after the bridge.
Beautiful Spots and great views.
Been looking forward to this video all week. Really enjoyed the video!
I love your videos ... you've inspired me to get out (along with my buddy saying "just go").
spent this last weekend up in Gifford Pinchot National Forest in WA ..exploring forest road 42 from east of sunset falls campground to Cougar Rock then to the lava fields ..was pretty nice. (and easy to get to from Portland BTW)
Things not to say to a jeep owner, "Bad Road No Exit", LOL!
Great episode as always. Thank you.
Thanks Chris, have a great week!
Good morning Chris hope you're doing well and your venture keeps going he save me careful
Chris - have you considered getting a manual sway bar disconnect to override your glitchy servo disconnect? EVO Mfg makes a manual rubicon swaybar disconnect kit. It is part #EVO-1087.

Excellent adventure. where you are,,Hope your schedule allows visit to USFS Historic Timerline Lodge
Thanks Chris!
Gotta check out Bozeman, in SW Montana. Hyalite Canyon is such a cool place there. Keep up the good content!
Views of Mt Hood were amazing ! It is an active volcano. Last eruption in 1907. It’s very difficult to find a compatible travel mate.

the Moose was awesome..
The "Bad Road" sign just might be used as a deterrent to keep out potential traffic.
Chris I dont know which way you are headed through Montana but I would check out Big Sky if you get down that way and really go check out FlatHead lake! Enjoy your time Chris it is truly Gods Country!!
One thing I was going to mention to you on your video from Medicine Bow National Forest to Oregon is to hit up a car wash when you go from one area to another so you don’t carry invasive species. I noticed your traction boards have dried mud and the Jeep is still a little dirty. Besides that keep up the great content and maybe educate people on was to keep from transporting invasive species.
Time to get rid of the electronic sway bar disconnect and install a Currie Anti-rock.
The EVO no limits manual sway bar disconnect would be better. His Jeep is top heavy and also does a lot of hwy driving. Both not good for the Currie.
