In this video I visit what I consider to be Utah’s honorary 6th national park. It’s every bit as spectacular as Arches, Canyonlands, or Bryce, yet it’s not one of the “Big Five.” (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

In this video we meet Lee, a retired woman from Tucson who lives full-time in her Kia Sedona minivan. She makes great use of her space and has a setup that anyone can replicate in their vehicle. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

In this video I explore the extremely rugged backcountry of one of my favorite national parks of the West, one that I think is the most underrated of the five national parks in Utah. Oh, and I didn’t see a soul the entire day. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

In this video we go over my new friend John’s 2014 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon (4-door) and his setup for sleeping/camping in it. He talks about making the bed platform, how he stores gear, mods he’s done to the Jeep, and more. This is a great setup that anyone can get ideas from, even if you don’t have a Jeep!

Let’s be honest, basically all of southern Utah could be one giant national park, but this spot in particular seemed just otherworldly beautiful! Oh, and the campsite at the end ain’t half bad, either. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

Well, it took ten years, but I was finally able to cross a big ol’ item off of my to-do list (despite the threat of wildfires in the area). (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

In this video I head back into eastern Utah’s Canyonlands National Park. I battle with the hoards to get that Instagram-perfect shot, enjoy a couple of other hikes in comparative seclusion, hit up one last point of interest in Moab, and then end up in an incredible campsite way up in the mountains. What a day! (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

In this video I talk about what my plans are for 2020 and some of the changes coming to the channel, including changes to the types of videos I put out. I also talk about how I’m planning to attend the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous (RTR) in Arizona in the next couple of weeks. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)

Here’s the link to the contact form on my site if you’re interested in having your rig filmed at some point.

In this video I head into an incredibly crowded national park but spend hours hiking, exploring, and seeing wonderful things without seeing another soul. This is Arches National Park off the beaten path. (Click here if you can’t see the video below.)
