Not the most exciting video, but here we go. My name is Brian. I live on the road full time in my self built camper van. Join me on my adventures. In this video I check out the town of McCammon, Idaho as well as Lava Hot springs, Idaho. Then I head towards my next camp at Pipeline Campground (GPS: 42.74082, -112.89997 ) near American Falls, Idaho. I cook up some dinner on the camp stove and try to keep cool in the heat. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for sharing all your experiences. Both modern videos and these from a few years back. Really appreciate them all.

@teresap.5991 Год назад

Here I am again watching you camp and enjoy nature. Giving me a great feeling of calm and peace. Love who you are truly Brian. God bless!!! 🖐️💯❣️

@myblessedhope3 7 лет назад

The drone really shows off how strong the current is. I'm glad you were willing to walk up to camp and talk to somebody about a site. Never know what kind of good will come to you that way. I really enjoy the glimpses of the little towns. Going through places like that is one of my favorite parts of traveling.

@FOASQUAD 7 лет назад

hey Brian.....i like when you have food in your videos....cool video as always

@joycebarnett3954 7 лет назад

The drone footage sure shows the strong currents in the Snake River. I bet it would be a hard river to swim in. Simple meal looks good. Thanks for taking me along. Beautiful scenery. Stay safe and happy adventures. Joyce

@laurielovelove7071 7 лет назад

Joyce Barnett I've never seen anyone swim in the river and I've been coming here for decades as my grandparents lived here since 60s. Too dangerous current and under water lava tubes.

Awesome drone footage and loved seeing the snake river. When I lived in Pasco, WA I had the chance of being able to swim in the snake river and it was fun. Love it when you go through small towns as one never knows what you will be able to see. Glad that you are being health wise. Take care, be safe and have a great day. Thanks!

@spudbono5747 7 лет назад

I just camped thru Idaho and there is SO much free or cheap camping. there are numerous places with signage 'sportsman's access' that allow 10 free days. most were totally empty (and some submereged!). lots around Bruneau that are right on the water. if you jump up a highway toward picabo, there are some great places as well.

@laurielovelove7071 7 лет назад

that's the spot I was going to show you, glad you found it. during the week there is no one th ere, u can have it all to yourself. if u keep going on the dirt road thru camp there are several more secluded sites, but it's 4 wheel drive.

@rexcluff3105 7 лет назад

@kellyzabriskie7332 7 лет назад

Lava Hot Springs is mostly a tourist town but it is a lot of fun to rent inner tubs and float down the Portneuf River that runs through town. There are also a few small areas along the river where some of the hot springs empty in to the river that is a good place to relax where the hot water blends with the cold water in the river. Also about 10 miles up out of Lava is Pebble Creek Canyon where there is some good camping spots more like you usually find.

Nice little spot. I know what I would be doing there,.. fishing. :-) Very nice drone views, and Brian, I just 15 minutes ago got back from getting groceries and I was very happy that the local WinnDixie had Cholula hot sauce. :-)..and I got the original, whereas they had another one but had a specific kind and taste no doubt, but both were the Cholula brand. I did a taste test after I got home here, and I like it, and I'm sure it will go good with several kinds of dishes. May you have many blessings, with much peace. ✌ .

For all you music buffs, the area that that Brian drove threw, McCammon and Hot Springs, Idaho was featured in the first music video I help produce, the song and video is SMALL TOWN by John Mellencamp, we also did a music video in a town that's been showcased a lot the last two weeks on RV And boating channels, the video was shot entirely at St. Augustine, Florida, the song is ARE YOU GOING TO KISS OR NOT by Thompson Square.

@jeng5757 7 лет назад

Brian, You missed the actual original hot springs. That was the big main pool off of the Hwy. About two more blocks down the road from where you made the u-turn are the original hot springs. It is quaint and low key because all of the kids and large families are at the pool blocks away. If you are back through, you really should check it out. How far behind are your videos?

If it was possible I would have liked to look at the hot pools. Please slow down and idle through an old town. The two story big brick buildings are worth stopping, walking by and filming

@laurielovelove7071 7 лет назад

Michael Morgan the hot pools at lava are really attractive pools with pebble bottoms. the newest one is quite hot, which I like, but I have to start in the cooler pool first. you can see them on their website or Google Earth.

@sandmanxo 7 лет назад

Looks like a nice spot. If the heat is anything like Boise, it's not too bad. I was up in Boise a few years ago for 4th of July and several locals talked about how hot it was when it was in the lower 90s. Being from the Texas Gulf coast where it's in the upper 90s and humid it felt comfortable to me. Plus it gets comfortable at night unlike here in Texas, where it still can be in the 80s and very humid on summer nights.

@TheSlotHeads 7 лет назад

Yay, the PNW is finally having summer. Dry weather and warm days. I prefer more natural hot springs, there is a good one about an hour from Eugene near Cougar Reservoir www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/willamette/recarea/?recid=4391 its got a short hike in, natural cascading pools, usually pretty nice. They clean them on Thurs, so best time is thurs after 12noon, for clean pools. I believe it's still $6 entry fee. We also know of some free camp spots not far down the road from the hot spring. Fishing camps, along the river, small pit toilet no drinking water. I am definitely wanting to go camp out there again before we leave for TX in Sept.

How cool is it getting down to at night? I can deal with the heat of the day (in the shade) if it cools off at night. Lets see, pesticide runoff in the river or whatever is in that pool from all those kids. I think I'd take my chances with the pesticides as well. LOL

@ErickEscamilla 7 лет назад

You seemed a little less "enthused" in this video. (Not in a bad way, I love every video no matter what and I I actually really enjoyed the realism of this video)... it made me think: What's it like to get sick on the road? You should tell one of your worst sick stories. It's gotta be 100x harder to get a flu or something when you're in a van, and trying to keep moving along. Also, heartbreak or depression must be a little difficult. It makes me think that if someone in your shoes hit an emotional wall, this life style would be very difficult. Anyway, just thoughts! I'm on to watch the next one!
