Ok guys you need a candle, Walmart has candles that crackle while it’s burning so you get that romantic vibe like a real fire. It’s called Wood Wick Candles.
things to do this time of year and Colorado if you make your way back around to Colorado Springs, you can do 14,000 feet elevation on pikes peak. You can also check out the royal gorge which is about 45 minutes from Colorado Springs. Pretty awesome this time of year they also have a dinner train that goes through the mountains for three hours at the royal gorge, and while in Colorado Springs, they have the seven Falls and Cave of the winds and the Manitou cliff dwellings pretty cool place to check out and all the stuff is pretty reasonable reasonable in price!
Between seasons is my favorite time to visit otherwise touristy full places. The summer folk have left and the winter folk have not yet arrived and it's the "quiet time" that I like best! Lovely vid today I really enjoyed the scenery !
For reference if the pumpkin does not have anything sprayed on it to last longer you can put the pumpkin out for animals. Moose love pumpkins so do most rodent populations like marmots. Just do not put it by a road or right on a trail. The caves are cool , imagine living in them. Be safe guys.
It's so funny how impressed people from out of state are with Colorado. I live on Monument Rd. and hike with my dog on that trail very regularly. It must suck living somewhere that you have to go on vacation to escape.
Perfect time to travel and explore those peak season spots is spring and autumn affectionally known as the "shoulder season" where crowds are sparse and prices reasonably low. I think Jimmy has the pancake flipping technique nailed! Happy trails guys!
For years we have been going to the southwest part of Colorado to camp & fish... after the pandemic we squeak in a place to stay, 2022 we could not find a campsite😯 your love for each other brings joy to my heart❤ I feel like making it mandatory for my clients to watch your channel. 'Together' 👍
Your bus is beautiful. I would advertise it on your channel with pictures! New viewers might not know how awesome it is. Someone with know how would be so lucky. Your layout was just great!
Being that I'm a grumpy old man, and I almost cannot stand anything.....I have to confess that I really do love your channel. Welcome to Colorado by the way. That's where I live. All kidding aside, enjoy yourselves in Colorful Colorado. Stay safe.
Delighted that you discovered Western Colorado! I'm one of those nutcakes that used to peddle the Monument. I think the only reason to endure the uphill is to FLY down!
We loved the gondola ride at Gore Mountain up in the Adirondaks in NY. My hubby and I did it on a whim during one of our trips up there and it was so fun.
It's messed up that so many campgrounds require reservations now. For most, reservations can't be made at the campground due to the lack of internet/phone connection.
October in Colorado is known as the ‘Shoulder Season’ where tourist for the summer are gone and tourist for the ski season haven’t flooded the Colorado ski areas yet!
Such a great time! I love the sunrise shots! Go, Natalie! Beautiful! Jimmy, I'm glad you got a chance to be able to look at the scenery! Y'all are so amazing...almost 31,000 subs!!!! ❤❤❤From SC, Jane 🙏 Thanks for bringing us with you!
Wow this is so cool! I can’t wait to get my van to the mountains! This weeks project is getting new tires (ouch$$) and working on kitchen set up. Can’t wait to finish! This is so inspiring thank you for sharing:)
I rode a bicycle up and down that road a few years back and it was the most incredible and dangerous bike ride I had ever been on. I'm so glad you guys had the opportunity to see this.
Don’t forget to set your heater air intake in accordance with changes of elevation, thinner air in the mountains. Also, when the ski resorts open, rent some skis and take ski lessons in Colorado and Utah, lots ski hills have gondolas. Then when you get to Canada, you can ski six months of the year. BC & Alberta.
Welcome to Colorado don't be put off by the cold because it's actually the best part of Colorado. The black canyon of the Gunnison & Royal Gorge are canyons that are in Colorado that have no comparison even the grand canyon. Remember the Colorado River is the biggest dynamic part of the grand canyon so we got our hands in that one too lol!
PS - yes, you're here in "mud season". Just like you described it, it is the season between other seasons. Typically, this is the time that places like ski areas and other winter season towns do their clean-up from summer and fall and prep for the winter season. They also give staff a break, before the next tourist season begins. Its a best kept secret, so shhh, don't tell anyone! HA! PPS - yes, all CO state parks now require a reservation.
As a European ! You have the most beautiful and diverse scenery. Be so proud of what the US has to offer us. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Hugs from a sunny November day in Dublin Ireland. 🍀💚😺💚🍀
I started watching you last week. You both are wonderful. I love the banter between you too. My husband and I have a class C , we’re both excited to see where you go thru the seasons!!!!
My wife and I are retired and built a skoolie this year. Been living in it since May. We have been working our way westward toward Arizona for sightseeing and exploring with a thought toward Skooliepalooza. Been fans for most of the build and hoping to run into you guys while we are in the Western states! Currently in New Mexico and will be in southern AZ by Thanksgiving. Keep up the good work!
They call a late breakfast/ Lunch: "Brunch". (Two meals in one). Then end off with Supper (Or a BBQ). Sure was nerve racking going through the curves and being close to the edge. Thank you for sharing your hike and your adventures. "Awesome" views. Regards from South Africa 🇿🇦..
GUYz, When you connect to campground water, especially in the off season, no water has flowed out of that faucet for who knows how long & the water that has been sitting in the pipe is usually tastes pretty bad. So, it is best practices to run the water for 2-3 min before you connect & fill your tank. ALSO, NEVER put any water in your tank that does not go thru a water filter. Not even big city municipal water. !
you all know there are a lot of rattle snakes, however most snakes will stay hidden in the cold, but I would stay away from bushes brush and make a lot of noise kick rocks and sand.
get a pie tin ,3 to 4 small clay pots , candles and light the candle and place the clay pots around so you can turn one upside down onto pso you can generate heat
Get a artic lined carhardt coat or jacket. You can wear your bibs too. Or get artic lined ones so you can still go outside come winter time. Beautiful country, I loved Colorado, I live in Arizona and been to the Grand Canyon is gorgeous and different during the seasons.
The gondola in Telluride is FREE! It was implemented to encourage commuting from Mountain Village and reduce the need for parking in town. Bonus is a camp site in City Park as it’s an easy walk to the gondola station and downtown!
Another bonus is taking your mountain bike along in the gondola, and riding back down the mountain into town! Like so much of the rest of Colorado, Telluride should be on your bucket list!
It's really pretty there and thank you so much for taking us on your adventures! But... The scenes are almost as pretty as Goblin Valley and almost as pretty as Canyonlands and Arches and almost as pretty as Bryce Canyon and Zion :) Almost as pretty as Utah, but, nope. Still really pretty though. Great filming with the sunrise and camera time-lapse and angles. Thanks for putting in the work
We call it Mud Season, here in Colorado. The best place near Glenwood Springs is Hanging Lake. I hope you climbed up the trail to see it. You would love it.
You gotta get Down jackets, or synthetic jackets for the cold dry days. Its a game changer. Marino/Super wool socks are also perfect for the cold. Good luck acclimating.
What fun following you two around on your adventure! Thanks for taking us along! Here's a suggestion for climbing your first "Fourteener": Mount Bierstadt near Georgetown is one of the easiest of the fourteeners to "climb." It's really just a mild hike that's not hatefully steep. You can easily do the hike without any fancy gear: just hiking boots, or even just running shoes, if you're surefooted. When you reach the top, you'll be looking over a long "sawtooth" ridge, with Mount Evans on the opposite end of the ridge. If you haven't had enough of the altitude yet, you can hop in the van and buzz down the road to Idaho Springs, and then drive Pancake to the top of Mount Evans, and then you can look over that sawtooth ridge the other way. A hike up Bierstadt now would be chilly - until you start to generate your own heat and take off a few layers! Sunday and Monday have the nicest forecast! I looked at a webcam, and there's no snow standing in town in Goergetown, but you might want to check and ensure that the top of Bierstadt is not yet snowbound. It may be too late in the year to do it now.
Hey there Jimmy and Natalie . Colorado is beautiful but too cold loll. Right now to enjoy.. you should go back during the summer.. there are free camping you just have to look like.. you should try Lake Freyer here in Borger Texas.. free camping. You guys are fun to watch. Camping and traveling is fun enjoy every minute of it alot to see.. thanks for taking us along with you everywhere you go. Stay safe out there on the roads 😊 🏞🏞🏞🏞
I stayed at the hotel at the base of the gondola in Glenwood Springs this summer. Definetly a lot more busy during the summer months. Hope y'all got to visit the hot springs there.
You get to see beauty like that, amazing. We in N.Z got nothing like that here. We only got the Milford sound and the Fiordland's at the bottom left hand side of the South Island near Queenstown N.Z, Oh and Mount Cook.
Love watching your adventures!!! I've never been in a cave...I didn't realize that until you were deep inside wow Your videos have a loving, calming natural feeling to it ...thank you❤️
There is a tramway in El Paso, TX.. When it reaches the top, you can see Texas and Mexico. Also, New Mexico. I'm not sure if the cars are the same size, and I have NO IDEA how much it costs. Looks as if y'all had fun. I love Colorado. I used to visit once a year, but all my dad did was fish. We didn't do anything fun...sadly.
Nice video. I'm always put at ease watching you guys. And, you're in my backyard, per se. I live inna suburb of Denver. I highly recommend Red Rocks Amphitheater. Yes tourist-y, if you will, but a wondrous place. Go for sunrise. Yes close to Denver, but far enough that you aren't in the city. Holler if you need a place to stock up on water, or whatever. I've got tools Jimmy can play with if you need anything done. Be safe and keep on..keeping on! BTW, I love your music selections.
If you like gondolas, check out Telluride. Bonus: It's free. You park at Mountain Village and ride the gondola into Telluride and then back (which is good, because there's very little parking in Telluride)
you should have a filtration system on that never trust any water at face value we learned that the hard way when we got sick from not filtering it out
Colorado has always been one of the tops on my list. I can't wait to visit one day! Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves. Can't wait to see where you're off to next (hopefully somewhere warmer for your sake) lol
I have gotten a site without reservation every time I've tried. I just go up to the campground and ask if they have a site available. You should try it sometime 😎👍
Colorado is beautiful, but it doesn't hold a candle to you, Natalie, don't get mad Jimmy, it's the truth...If you get the chance check out Georgetown just outside of Denver...
dang! you missed grand mesa, the tallest flat top mountain in the world -- my view out my window every day -- you guys are so cute -- much love from grand junction
