Overlanding From Bishop to Mammoth Mountain Area
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- In this video Goose & I escape the heat from Southern California & head up to the hills above Bishop to an elevation around 8,300'. We found a great campsite by doing some recon using Google Earth & Gaia GPS.
The next morning we packed up and explored the many trails located between Mammoth Mountain & June Lake. Our second night campsite was near Obsidian Dome.
On the way home I just couldn't resist the oppurtunity to do some fly fishing along the Upper Owens.
I hope everyone enjoys this video & are all healthy & safe!!!

Longtime buddy is a horse trainer in Bishop. He has showed me a lot of spots not known to the public. One great way to go from Bishop to Mammoth area and not known well is taking Hwy6 out of Bishop by the fairgrounds north about 30 plus miles and turn left on Hwy 120 ....You will go through Benton which is a small Indian town. Consignment shop here has private gravity fed wood hot tubs for rent in the woods in back.
Anyway continue on Hwy 120 through the desert on a very interesting Hwy with whoop de doooos in the road. My buddy goes arrowhead hunting here. you will rarely see another car on this Hwy, way less stressful than 395. Eventually you will start seeing pine trees and getting into the forest. You end up coming out at Mono Lake. Drive is not that much longer than 395 and I prefer it.
Trump Bobblehead on the desk....Thumbs Up...
Craters flats ,Obsidian Dome, and Inyo Craters off the mammoth scenic loop awesome areas..
Thanks for stopping by!!!
Leaving Monday for Mammoth, our favorite for 30 years. Your channel is my favorite for several reasons. One is you love the 395 corridor like we do. Two, you keep it real and three you live close by. I live in Redlands and all the places you go to we can go to so it makes it more fun and interesting. Keep up the awesome job!
Awesome! Thank you! Have fun up in Mammoth Paul!!! Happy Trails
Thank you for taking us along. Great video’s nice kitchen set up.
You bet. The pleasure is all mine! Take care Edgar
Awwwww... you just scored a million points with "every day is an anniversary with you"! Congrats!
Right... I ain't no fool...LOL. I give her a hard enough time that I need to lay it on thick every once in a while...LOL
Thanks for sharing how you find your camping spots! Another great video!
Glad you like them!
Really enjoying your videos! I hope one day my wife comes overlanding with us (she isn't outdoorsy). For now it's always my kids and friends. Anyway keep those videos coming! Happy trails.🤙
Hate the bobblehead but love the channel. Thanks for the great content!
Also, you guys are cute together. Love to see a couple out adventuring together.
Also, eat your tomatoes, Daniel!
Thanks Roderik!!!
And no tomatoes for me!!! Yuck!!! LOL
Outstanding.video. Mammoth and June are the hidden gems.
the westside has some awesome stuff too! on the CencaBORL you will see all of it.. start at brown off 395 and return there 1100 miles later!. never taking the same road twice! i have the route map posted to view and dl gpx tracks.. check it out! it is similar to the bdr routes but in looped form instead of point to point. we have 400, 600, 950 and 1100 mile looped routes all in one 1100 mile route. the shorter loops use Hway 120 thru Yosemite as the connector. EPIC any way you slice it! and you can catch dinner along the way and im taking for 4, not the minnows you caught. :) at owens and the creeks just sayin.. im in the process of verifying the South 950 route. the North loops are incredible and take you from Mariposa to bishop and back thru mammoth and lee vinning... or you start at bishop and come over 120 and then its nearly 50/50 on/off or more.. not much hiway except thru yosemite.. but awesome stuff! i tried to post a pic of fish my son caught on first cast at place we camped at!!! it was a 3 lbs rainbow! biggest fish we ever caught... it was a campgounds but you could have open fires there.. and was right there... ill stop.. take alook.. ??? you might find something that sparks your interest. :) ive lived in this area for over 30 yrs.. worked in LA till 2014.. I verify the route in my 4runnerfor ADV bikes and overlanding 2 and 4 wheeled. just trying to share the STOKE!
Deadman is about 2 miles from the Rest Stop which has great spring water spickets.
Cool video 👍
Hey Daniel, really like your videos keep them coming. I've been traveling up the 395 to Mammoth Lakes and Lee Vinning most of my life. Since following your channel I've hit most of the trails you've posted. From Monache meadows, Laurel lakes, Coyote flats and more, so thanks for that. I'm not a Jeep owner but have a 3rd gen Toyota 4runner with a RTT that does the job just fine. Thanks again for your great videos keep up the adventures for all to see. P.S. I have a female Rotty named Charlee as well. Hope to see you the on trail someday. Be safe.
.
Hi David - Thanks for the kind words. Eastern Sierra is a special place for my family and I. We've been going up there for as long as I can remember. Great choice of dog breed. Sierra is our 3rd Rotty and we just love her a ton! Happy Trails
It's so nice doing this I've been in this area before it's well worth it
Love the bobblehead :) great tips!
Thanks so much! 😊
Show how to get there too.... show us the journey along the way....show us the scenery.....many of cannot go because due to lack of serious 4X4 or courage.... we like to watch your video and either follow or track your journey along the way on google map..... we love it when travelers show us where they are at certain point on their journey so we can follow them on Google map.... it's just more fun and real this way...
Looks like another rad weekend in the Sierra. I love that area.
Another great video! Thanks for sharing.
You bet!
I like the Trump bobble head. The fight isn’t over it’s just getting started! Cool video. I work for the forest service in fire so I got to check out all these areas at work.
Fun video. Haven’t heard the word cucuey in a long time!! Momma Goose is an awesome copilot! And doesn’t like staying in campsites? Pretty awesome wife!
Thanks Perette...Mama Goose is an awesome co-pilot and I'm fortunate to have her as mine. Take care and thanks for the kind words!
Garlic lover is hands down my favorite seasoning. Their everything seasoning is good too, but I love garlic haha.
Ours too. LOL. Think we are half way thru that one already...LOL. Thanks for the comment Steven!!! Take care!
steven escobar , let me tell you what happened to me. I LOVE THE BIG “ G” . I buy the big peeled bag “G” at sams. Eat a couple cloves everyday. Went to work an a co worker complained about my aroma . “I HAVE BEEN EATING GARLIC FOR YEARS “The manager of my department chewed me out in front of everyone. Went to Human Resources ,Well long story short . Gm gave me the rest of the day off . PEOPLE DONT KNOW THE BENEFITS OF GARLIC.
I only skip garlic when going to the dentist. Great video with good reply from you
Awesome video! I just bought a skottle because of your videos, can’t wait to use it!
Thanks Dan13. Hope you enjoy it! Be sure to tag Tembo Tusk on IG and Jerry will likely repost your post...He's great at sharing posts! Have fun with it.
HEY JUNKY , I love see the wifey behind the wheel ! TEAM WORK
She loves driving as much as I do..Sometimes I have to convince her to leave her Jeep at home..LOL. Thanks watching and leaving a comment. Take care Shawn!
395 junky , I live in menifee ca . All my close friends moved out of Ca state . It takes me back four wheeling and prospecting in the desert .thanks
Awesome video brother! Definitely looking forward to more camping trips with you all in the cooler weather months ahead. 🤙🏻
Let’s do it!
Very nice! Can't wait to get my rig and get out there.
Have fun! Lots to explore
Subscribed. Was up in Inya Forrest area. Didn't realize how many place are out there. I got a stock ford explorer sport with 20' all terrain tires and 18" wheels. It's not 4x4 but it is capable. Just need to find the right trails so hopefully you guys have some spots you can recommend.
Noticed the lone pine area in your Video. Love that place!!! Alabama Hills Mount Whitney I’ll beautiful areas. I’ll be climbing Mount Whitney September 17 can’t wait.
Jerry - That's awesome. Have fun!!
Did you end up climbing whitney?
Great videos. Give us a lot of inspiration to go out. Always wandering what the guy say in the radio machine first second of your video
Good question! Me too. Its just some radio chatter I came across and thought it would be a good intro to some of the vids. I'm glad you're enjoying the content. Happy Trails
@@395jnky i can definitely tell you its in Hebrew..
Also, I wanted to know if you can post video what you use for shower when camping?
Awesome!!! Headed out labor day weekend myself, maybe I will see you on the trail! Food idea was great!
Have a great time Fred...I'll also be heading up the 395 that Friday morning with my old man...Wont be staying here again, but certainly driving thru. Take care and have fun!
Very cool spot for sure. Was east of Bishop last weekend and got rain and hailed on haha.
I say your post. That looked like one hell of a hike! Congrats on the accomplishment! Take care!
I love fishing the Owen’s but no doubt, it gets HOT no matter where you are in the summer. Gorge is fantastic, just not right now as the heat is miserable.
Awesome Adventure.
Yes it was! Thanks Rick for watching and leaving a comment. Take care!
@@395jnky
Thanks. I was checking out Hgwy 395 on Gaia and I do believe that there is a 4x4 route that could possibly be a Serious 4x4 Adventure that could run at least a week long adventure through a time portal of history. It could become a yearly adventure for quite a few Jeepsters. Like Easter Jeep Safari, The Arizona Peace Trail, etc. Take a Peak at it. The wife and I are headed for Moab for the Labor Day Safari hope to see ya there. Here's to ya 395 Junky...
We go every year first stop Schats bakery!!! The camp site lol
Love Schats!!!
What collar is that Sierra is wearing?
You camp the Eastern Sierras and you have a Rottie? Subbed 🤝
Love buttermilk!!
awesome video! we were up in that area twice this month to escape the heat. Off topic, how do you like your Teraflex rock sliders and how well do you think they can handle the abuse? thanks and keep up the good work!
Thanks Chris. Eastern Sierra is amazing...all 4 seasons, especially the summer. I love the Teraflex sliders....I don't do a whole lot of hard core crawling, but I know a bunch of guys that do use them and they wheel all the time on rocks and they have no problem.
Love my Gaia
100%
Inspiring, Thnx !!!
Glad you liked it!
Your channel was a great! I’ve spent countless hours watching videos but yours are by far the best! Question about skittle, is it a Tembo Tusk? Which size? Where did you score the side table?
Hi there. Thanks for the kind words. I have the reg size skottle...and yes it is made by Tembo Tusk. They sell the side tables there on their website at www.tembotusk.com
Happy Trails
I think it's great you don't tell the locations.
Just a few hints with your own research are all you really need
She's a big puppy
And getting even bigger!
What set up were you using on the Owens there? I’m new to fly fishing and have a 5 weight set up. I watch Purple Drake on you tube and he suggested a lighter set up. 2-3 weight stuff... Thanks for sharing the adventures !
I was just throwing some hoppers at them and they were hitting them...If they don't hit the hoppers just throw on some light colored dry flies...Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Take care.
A Mammoth Mountain add came up on this video hahaha
Sounds like the advertisers are spending their ad budget wisely. LOL
The Cucuy 😳🤣
I learned that word from Goose and her family...I never heard of that until we were married...LOL
great video man, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Wonder how far these campsites are away from town?
Mexicans for Trump.2020 🇺🇸👮
Great video.
Very nicely done video, beautiful scenery and especially like the closeness of you any your wife having fun times together . What type of cameras do you use to shoot your videos, very clear sharp. Thank you for sharing and close competition for Marco by the way.
Thanks John - I appreciate the time for you to leave a comment. For cameras I use a Canon 90D, Mavic Air 2 & iPhone! And Marco is simply amazing and very creative...whereas I just throw some stuff on the skottle and call it done. LOL Kind words nonetheless. Thanks & Take care!!!
@@395jnky thank you for reply. Beautiful family and great adventures! Semper Fi
HaHaHa we liked ur Desktop Bobble Head 🤙
Thanks for the video!
Glad you enjoyed. Happy Trails
Butter milk got to be really cold the colder the better
Thanks for the tip!
I like your coffee maker. Which one do you have and do you grind up your own beans? We are thinking about using instant coffee but there is nothing like the smell of coffee brewing.
Hi --- Thanks for the question. I use the GSI French Press and we love it. Yes we do grind up our own beans. Youre 100% correct about the smell of fresh brewed coffee while camping. Its the best!
Love Boat Shoes Hazy
💯
Good morning, great videos I really enjoy watching them . I wanted to ask what French press do you have? Thank you for the great videos
I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. The French press is made by GSI. Thanks for leaving a comment. Happy Trails
246 degress coolant temp. Does it always run that hot?
No...that was climbing one of the steepest grades on the trip in about 108 degree weather...Normal temp is around 210-230...But I sure start to get nervous once it gets to about 240+ ...Thanks for the comment
Hello, what are those red bases that you place under the tires to level your Jeep called? Thank you pablo
Look into toxic algae in Ca waterways, can kill dogs in 12 hours. We love our dogs and always watch out for them. Would hate for Sierra to ever get hurt. Love your videos.
Thanks so much for the concern and the kind words. I appreciate it...
Just out of curiosity whats the difference between overlanding and camping?
Everyone has their own interpretation. To me, Overlanding is when you are actively moving from campsite to campsite exploring different areas...Camping on the other hand, in my opinion, is when you set up camp and stay there for multiple nights....To each his own. Happy Trails
Stop giving away the secrets! JK, nice video.
Thanks J
Same question I asked in your last video. You could be driving/stopping/camping on private property, lol the cows belong to someone. How do you know if you are or not tresspasing?
Cattle are grazed on public land much of the time. Private property is required by law to be marked as such or you are not trespassing.
So glad you guys love where I live! So awesome . Curious? Why is your dog so thin? Is she ill? Just curious? No offense
Our German Rottweiler is 5 months old, and has the metabolism that I wish I could bottle up and sell. Shes not sick, in fact, the vet says that shes a very impressive girl and healthy as can be. Thanks for the concern
395jnky nice to here . I know it’s good to have your dogs ribs showing . Must have been the view point . Thanks for the reply. We had a rotty named Sierra also. Have a good day!
@@celenastruthers5231 wait you guys it’s good to have your dogs ribs showing ... 🥲
@@aaqf14 a vet wood say yes that ribs showing is an ideal dog weight. Helps dogs hips in the future. My dog is severely over weight . We live inside in the winter a lot , and don’t get out!
love that bobble head 😂
100%
Another outstanding video. I have been following now. Yes I use Gaia GPS. Questions... What is your name? And that table at minute 20+ what brand model?
Hi Ben - Thanks for the kind words. I got the table from REI. It is made by Mountain Summit Gear. It is the Large SHD Roll Top Table. Happy Trails - Daniel
Another Great video. Was the Buttermilk area/Birch creek that you stayed open for exploring or was any of it closed for driving? I’ve been wanting to explore up there but heard that some of it is restricted. Wondered if you observed that or not.
At the time we went up there is was indeed open...but I'm not sure about now. Best way to find out is to call the Forest Ranger office in Bishop and they are very helpful. Thanks Chris!
@@395jnky thanks! I’ll do that!
Another great vid. What kind of brews are you guys drinking?
Thank you. Our go to is always an IPA...Hazy, Double, Triple...We love 'em all...
That grill top is awesome! Is there a link where we can buy a similar setup?
Hi Alex - Absolutely...You can get yours at www.tembotusk.com We love ours...Happy trails
Love the bobblehead 🇺🇸 Why did you put them in...... Because I like tomatoes...🤣 Today is our anniversary.... No it's not....😀 You two are great together keep up the great videos.
That grill you have.... I need one...
Yes you..Go get yourself one at www.tembotusk.com. Happy Trails. Use Code 395jnky for a discount. Happy Trails
love the bobblehead!!! and enjoy your videos!!
Glad you enjoy them!
248 coolant temp is kinda high 🥺
Sorry if you’ve mentioned it, but what’s the brand of your French press?
Hi Chase. It is made by GSI. No complaints on our end.
Nice fish. Pretty decent size.
Hey, I wanted to ask...a couple trips back you had mentioned the Jeep had some squeaks that needed attention when you got back home. What was it and how do you address it?
Thanks Jack. The squeaks definitely improved and went away on their own...Occasionally I'll hear the noises but, nothing has been diagnosed yet...
Question kind of off topic but does your pupp ever get car sick while off roading/ long trips in the Jeep?
Hi Nick - Thanks for reaching out. Sierra does fine in the car, whether we are off-roading or on a long trip with one exception. She will get carsick on twisty & turny mountain roads...My hope is that she will grow out of it as she gets older. Fingers crossed...
Question about Gaia.
Is it an app that shows trails for off roading/4x4/overlanding? Im only seeing hiking trails.
Hi Desiree - Gaia has a bunch of different overlays which includes marked off-road trails. Good Luck and have fun. Happy Trails
What overlays on Gaia do you use to figure out which roads to take and whether it's public or private?
I would suggest you use the Public Land - US overlay listed under the Feature/Weather Overlay tab. That one is probably the easiest to use and understand...Happy Trails
@@395jnky thanks, I'll check that out! Which TOPO do you prefer while you're out on the trail; Gaia's or maybe the USFS?
What is the grill name again
Its called a skottle and its made by Tembo Tusk. We love it! You can get more info from www.tembotusk.com. Ask for Jerry and tell him Daniel from 395jnky sent you. Take care!!!
Do you need a permit or pass for camping or OHV in mammoth or bishop areas? Thanks
Hi Steven - The areas in this video did not require any permits or pay any fees. However, you do need a campfire permit in order to use a propane cooking device of any kind. Happy Trails
did you say googooyuh? is that bigfoot?
Cucuy...Per Wikipedia: The Coco (also known as the Cucuy, Cuco, Coca, Cuca, Cucu or Cucuí) is a mythical ghost-monster, equivalent to the bogeyman, found in many Hispanophone and Lusophone countries.
How about Kennedy meadows area
Been there...We love it! Hope the fires to the west of KM get under control soon!
I'm now living in south carolina.... But I use to live and work up in johnsondale at the rranch. I miss that whole area... Too many swamps here..😋 and every bug imaginable here bites 😅 keep on truckn
Coolant temp was up there.
Right!!!! All I do is cycle thru that digital display from outside temp to engine temp while I'm driving...Its a vicious cycle! LOL
I do the same 😔
👍👍😎😎
Are you fishing a 3 wt.?
Hi Harvey...No that's a 5 weight.
was it smokey ?
Not at all....Was great air quality.
@@395jnky thank you sir
1 more question,. how wold you rate the trail to the lake ? is it hard or easy ? thank you beforehand and thanks for great videos
goose needs a microphone
Yah...I was lazy...I should have used my other mic...Thanks for watching. Take care.
Love the Trump bobble head!!
🇺🇸TRUMP 2020🇺🇸
🚫geotag....👎
Less cooking and would loved to have seen the trail you were so eloquently describing.
So you are paranoid, you need a large guard dog, buy a gun
I have both...And I'm hardly paranoid..Just very aware of whats happening around me. I'm a very light sleeper.
Is that Trump,?😂👎🏿
