The Descend on Bend event is held very close to this location. You see the Hole in The Ground in many of the attendee's video's. They seem to get some interesting vehicles into that event! Thanks for the video.
Oh Wow! Taking me back in time❤. Spent a lot of time exploring the Fort Rock Basin when I lived in Bend 35+ years ago! It hasn't changed😊. Remember those roads well😂. Thanks so much for sharing this! We camped and biked there many times and loved having it all to ourselves. A favorite part of the country.
We started taking the ebikes camping with us, game changers. Hopefully, an ebike company will sponsor this channel and donate a couple of bikes. Always impressed with Dave's ability to take a promaster where none has gone before. 👍👍👍
+@Scrambler85 we get invites all the time but Dave is doing his research and needs one with good suspension for his back…. We learned this the hard way! Oh and space is EXTREMELY limited. We will only have enough space for one (which is fine) but it will need to be mounted on the front of the van. So more research for from bumper and bike racks. I think he has got it narrowed down so maybe after Alaska.
In my opinion that stick with the groves is to hold rifles. It is a hunting camp. My mother told me that when she was younger, teenager age folds would hold dances and bond fires at the bottom.
Very cool location. Love the big rock circle. I could build a hut and live there 😄. Roodle sure was having a good ole time. Will he need any new clothes for the Alaska winter? I hope that works out for you because it will be a blast to see him playing in those big snows. Take care guys. 🥰🌿♥️
You see so much of the country! Yet so much more to see so keep going! Does Roodle have ear mites? He seemed to be shaking his head a lot which I haven't noticed before. What a lucky pooch.
Great job editing Carrie. I liked the brief recap of last week's adventure and the route map displayed leading to the new location. Thanks Dave for sharing the campsite and clearance info. That one campsite with the junipers and big boulders was very nice. Not much edibles around I'm guessing. I'll see you both next week until then keep on enjoying the moments and safe travels.
It seems awfully dry to be this early in the season. On this day in 2018 we departed CA for Alaska. That was in a 2006 Highlander, two years before we bought our 2014 converted Promaster. Have a great trip. We'll be seeing you!
That’s a great camp loop. Another reason I got the Rv I got because I definitely noticed the hills and rocks in the road. Gotta watch that oil pan. I may have to try going down the crater, another reason to get that front locker 😂
That rock area wood thing looked like a ski rack. I wonder if they can cross country ski there in the winter? A great place to stop n make hot cocoa n smores along the way ❤ How old is Roodle?
In a few months I'll have an AWD lifted Ford Transit for my home. Really looking forward to exploring more of my home state (Oregon), but I think I'll be too late to head to Alaska this year.
We drove there a couple of years ago in our 2WD Sprinter. Once was enough for me. I wonder if the "roads" are purposely neglected to discourage more visitors and the inevitable trash. But it's sad because it prevents a lot of people from seeing it. We got there by using satellite view on google maps and just driving towards it, because the roads/trails go in every direction with no signs. (I hope you stopped at Fort Rock, because it was unexpectedly impressive, and the road was good.)
Believe it or not we miss driving those crappy blm roads in the van. Thanks for the geology lesson guys. Oregon has a lot of great stories. Onward and upward!!! Be safe.
Man, that guy on the pickup truck, either stolen or a rental. There is no way someone would drive that crazy. Just imagine his groceries at the end of that drive 😂
+@DoggsLife2019 in the west we don’t really have to worry about ticks very much. He gets his monthly flea and tick medicine. Other than that we do a tick check every night…. It’s more of a attention giving doggy massage. In the east ticks are INSANE! We got him his Lyme shot as nothing we did kept the ticks off! In Tennessee we pulled 26 crawling ticks off him from a short walk. What do you do?
@@oneadVANtureatatime we check him for ticks after every hike Give him interceptor and Bravecto We don't have Lyme in Oklahoma so don't worry about that. Do you ever think about a snake shot?
We did the Rattlesnake shot for our Shepard when we were backpacking but have never done it for Roodle. We are very snake aware when it’s that time of year. We keep him on a leash and between us. Since we’ve been in the van we have not encountered any rattlesnakes and very few snakes in general. If we were stationary in a high snake area we would definitely consider the snake shot.
Absolutely stunning views. Wow what a place. Thank you for sharing Carrie and Dave. We will be pinning this one too. See you next week.

Another great Oregon location. Love the song about your dog. Thanks for the walk and views.
The camp site with the Juniper trees was my fav. Very unique location.

Wow what an amazing place!! Be safe and keep having fun! Roodle is adorable!
I love how adventurous you two are. You work good together. Safe travels
Love our area! Glad you came. Love our back roads!
That guy with the truck camper musta had to pee as fast as he was going. Nice video, thanks!
What I was thinking as well. Looked like the law was after him the way he was moving.

Thats getting way out there. Did you come across any other campers.....Happy Trails🐕🐕
Thanks for the video. That looks like a beautiful place to camp. I love your Roodel, song, so cute.
Great driving, Dave!
You see so much of the country! Yet so much more to see so keep going!

We are constantly fighting ear issues!

Ill be heading to Oregon in July. Back to my old hunting/fishing grounds.
You guys are awesome. Love how you give everything anyone would need to know when visiting. Thanks and please keep up the great “advantures”.

How old is Roodle?
My kind of spot. Thanks for sharing!
Like your reviews of locations and the details you add are very helpful!
Great video as always. Your travels are such an inspiration.

We are in la pine and I am finally getting my man to take us out there so excited lol 😂
Very nice location! How cool are your drone shots!
Didn’t go clear out here but now wish I did. La Pine had a good vet for Freckles so if you need one would recommend them!
Awesome getaway location soo serene
Holy geyser! Lol. Thanks for sharing, guys.
I was laughing right at the beginning. Crack in the Ground, Hole in the Ground, Rock Fort. They don't go for fancy in eastern OR, do they?
The correct term for the hole is a "caldera", btw.

You should suggest what you consider 'high clearance' is ... 9" + ?
ooooo 800 likes! I love your videos SO much! thanks guys! you're the best!
Great video
We know what we do to protect Dogg from ticks etc. What do you guys do for Roodle?
Dogg also gets a snake shot every spring.

Dogg says howdy to Roodle
You two find the most interesting places. I don't remember what resources you use besides Campendium. Also BLM camping guide of some sort?
I was number 777 thumbs up ♥
Best app for collecting and showing location? Anyone?
We're driving to Alaska this summer too! Just hoping the wildfires in Canada don't cause problems...
+@katydidlearn yes! I think we’ve already re-routed because of the fires. We hope to cross the Canadian border in a few days
I imagine this place being wild on weekends with OTR camping and locals. ✌️❤️🚐
