Nothing better than a solo trip. Thanks for sharing.

@ggg4runner Год назад

Everyone needs some alone time now and again.

@svakula123 Год назад

I enjoy your videos. Keep them coming. I will say one thing, you eat well while camping.

@ggg4runner Год назад

Thanks for watching! I try to cook and eat well but there are certainly times when I roll into camp after dark and end up eating a freeze-dried meal or instant ramen.

@805gregg 11 месяцев назад

You have to simplify buy already cut garlic, you don't need a whole cheese package for a couple of days and get instant coffee, will save a lot of time and claan up

@ggg4runner 11 месяцев назад

I get that. Those are my Mountain House Meals days. But, sometimes it's just nice when I have ample time to enjoy the process and the great outdoors is my kitchen. Also, I'm definitely not a coffee snob but I just say no to instant coffee.

@crazynotme7606 Год назад

Good videos bro.. I'll pass your channel around to my homies.. Keep them videos coming 👍

👊🏼 appreciate you! Happy Holidays!

Ok. I had to pause the video and content on the umbrella. Kudos. Simple and effective. I'll be doing this on my next outing with rain.

@ggg4runner Год назад

It sure beats going number 2 in the rain 😂 plus just faster/easier than a tarp or something like that. Thank you for watching!

Great video dude! I'm traditionally a backcountry canoe camper but because of recent issues with my mobility I'm getting set up for overlanding. Your content as well as some others is giving me some great ideas. Thanks so much for sharing!

Hey Roger! I just discovered your channel last night, and have been going through the videos you've posted. I dig it. I know you're new, and are building up your channel/rig/etc. Keep it up. I'm about to do my first solo trip here in a few weeks. Gotta test out the diesel heater, and see how well it works in the cold, Idaho winters. ;)

@ggg4runner Год назад

Thanks for watching and commenting! Let me know how that diesel heater works out for you and which one it is if you get a chance? Happy trails!

@ateacozyisasometimes Год назад

Wow beautiful spot! Thanks for sharing. Your meals look awesome. We sort of half-prep our food to make camp cooking go a bit faster - ex. marinade meat, pre-chop some veg, wrap stuff in foil so it’s all ready to pop on the fire, etc. 😋

@ggg4runner Год назад

My wife likes to pre-prep too

@ateacozyisasometimes Год назад

@@ggg4runner It’s good for when you go hiking for too long and come back famished - haha 😅

@OnDirtOutdoors Год назад

Great videos! Really liking the vibe here! Ps invest in your personal gear. Fixed blade, pocket folder etc. never have to use a chef knife again if so lol

@ggg4runner Год назад

Ah yeah, have a bunch of EDC knives but I just don't like doing food prep with them. I just won't forget the veg peeler again 😅 Thank you for watching and commenting!

@offroadexcitement0211 3 месяца назад

Hey man, just stumbled across your channel. Love your content. You kept saying in the other video that when you started your videos sucked. Well I'm wondering if this is one of your 1st because it doesn't suck. I just started my channel and hopefully I'll get better. Anyway, Love your content and your details. You have a new subscriber! Won't miss any future videos and I'm going back to watch your others. Your GAIA videos are EXCELLENT! See you on the dirt. 🤙

@ggg4runner 3 месяца назад

I took down the older videos temporarily. Appreciate you watching and subbing! Best of luck your channel and happy trails!

@ggg4runner Год назад

Thanks for watching! I got that one from REI but I no longer buy stuff from them because I learned that they support organizations who are against off-roading and completely close trails. This one on Amazon appears to be the exact same thing for $40 less than the REI one amzn.to/3S6FWM7

@jimroblyer19 9 месяцев назад

Great video! Do you have directions from San Fran?

@ggg4runner 9 месяцев назад

Use whatever mapping app and plug in Elk Mountain Rd in Upper Lake CA. After that you need a good offline off road map like GAIA GPS or onX Offroad.

@568843daw Год назад

You can tell that the USFS has got problems in this National forests when the burned and dead trees have NOT been removed properly. Dead and burned trees are not only dangerous hazards, that City folk don’t recognize, but these trees attract beetles that will destroy healthy trees. Yes, this is true! Instead of having the forest logged, which is now impossible in California because the “Tree Huggers” have managed to destroy that industry, the Mendocino Forest Manager(USFS) has not even made an effort to do even a minor cleanup. The only action they have taken is to put up warning signs. How lovely.

@mikezuerlein6564 Год назад

I like your content. You listed coordinates for 2 campsites and the rock/view where you didn’t camp. The GPS for the view was the same as first campsite. Just curious where that rock and view are. Do you have a different grid for that?

@ggg4runner Год назад

My bad, updated coordinates for that 3rd site in the description. Thank you for watching!

Cool video, Roger! I haven’t seen everything on your channel yet but two quick questions: where did you get your Smokey the Bear hat and which table is that you use for your stove?

@ggg4runner Год назад

The hat is from Etsy and the table is www.rei.com/product/159024/mountain-summit-gear-heavy-duty-roll-top-table-large Thank you for watching!

@stevebratten6592 Год назад

Video is very crisp! Is that a solar panel on the hood? How is it doing?

@ggg4runner Год назад

Yes, 80w on the hood for trickle charging the AGM vehicle battery. 2x100w on the rooftop tent for a Bluetti AC200MAX. The hood one is great, will pretty much never try to start a dead battery unless there's just no sun at all for many days straight. I'll most likely talk about all that stuff in the gear video coming up soon.

@AE-zj6oc Год назад

Hello Roger, I’m new at Overlanding and have been upgrading my Jeep. I have been to Big Ben Texas and it’s awesome. My question is how has your hood Solar been doing and do you recommend it? Eddie San Antonio, Tx.

@ggg4runner Год назад

Thank you for watching! The hood solar has been flawless. I use it for the vehicle starter battery because the camp lighting that is mounted on my rig is powered off the starter battery. As long as there's sun I don't sweat about running the camp lighting for hours.

@fpartidafpartida Год назад

Why are you not boozing while cooking? Pasta and wine is an obvious choice. Breakfast mimosas. Or if you decide to skip breakfast, then coffee ☕️ and Cinnamon Baileys with vanilla vodka is a great way to start your morning 🌄. After dinner bourbon keeps the bears away (or at least you don't mind as much when they start gnying on you).

@ggg4runner Год назад

I don't drink. No one wants to see me turn red like a cooked 🦞 and then I just wanna lay down and sleep.

@fpartidafpartida Год назад

@@ggg4runner Fish and campers looked awesome 👌 (a little white wine would enhance the flavor...alcohol would burn off 😄).

@ggg4runner Год назад

I did actually put some white wine in that 😃
