Older video but thanks for sharing sir. Hope you stopped at the hot springs after leaving Fields. When I saw you out in the desert with Hart Mt in the background it reminded me of my own summer this year. The folks who own the store there in Fields are super nice. We started at Succor Creek, drove all over the canyons then down and over thru Rome to McDermitt and on to Fields and then on to Hart Mt. And watching this video is like seeing that trip again only in reverse! At one point it reminded me of three finger gulch on your way to leslie gulch...maybe I'm just imagining it but yeah, IMO you had an excellent good time. Thanks again for the post!
In my mind a quality video, I kid you not boys. Beautiful solitude and natural beauty of the landscape. Addison must have had so much fun. Wish I could stay down by the water hole for a couple of weeks and enjoy the starry night sky. Thanks, guys. 5 *****
@@OverlandScout81 9:36 that's like something out of a movie. Honestly that could be a scenery shot in Lord of the Rings. Doesn't that make you want to get your cloak and your pipe and go for a hike to Mount Mordor 😋🤣
@@OverlandScout81 that must give you such a spiritual connection to the universe to be in such amazing Beauty. I can see why you do it. Even though it is such a rugged country there is some kind of childlike innocence about it. The expanse of freedom trailing off into never-ending Horizons
I'm from NYS but have land just 150 miles west of there. I'll be visiting out there this summer. I might stay a few months or permanently. Looks absolutely gorgeous. A thing of beauty is a joy forever.💫
Thank you Overland PNW! I checked out your channel as well and great stuff! Subbed! Love how overlanding has a way of bringing people together. Looking forward to following your adventures!
Hey there! Awesome video, amazing location! I’m down in So. Oregon, Any tips/coordinates on how I could go about finding this location, or others like it?
Amazing job love how the canyon looks cousin, the drone work is definitely something I need to try 🙌🏽 looks like an amazing time..... might be something I need to try!
Hey Bud - I really enjoy watching your posts! Your drone shots are incredible, and I can appreciate the time and effort it must take to get good photos too! Good on you for putting in the time. I moved to Central Oregon 3 years ago, and have barely touched the outback here. Do a bunch of dual sport motorcycle riding out here with friends in the know. We've done sections of the Oregon Backcountry Discovery (ODBR) routes 4 & 5. I know it can be tough at times to manage a group (like herding cats - LOL!!!), but if you ever put together a overlanding trip in the future, my wife and I would be interested in tagging along. We have a 2011 Jeep Rubicon outfitted for overlanding, and we just did hole in the ground this past weekend. I try to split my Adventure riding and overlanding time as my wife does not ride motorcycles. Anyway, would be happy to meet up with you someday. BTW, we also like that you have a rescue dog too. Scout sure has a bundle of energy! Our two dogs are rescues as well..... Bravo Zulu & Cheers Brother!
Hi Michael! Really appreciate the compliments! I absolutely love central/eastern Oregon. I used to ride dual sports too but now just Jeeping. I just lead a trip for the Salem Jeepers club this past weekend and it was incredibly fun. We had 9 rigs and did over 175 miles and covered a wide range of terrain. There will definitely be more of those trips in the future. If you’re on FB checkout the Salem Jeepers club and you’ll see me on there. I’m working on the video for that trip too so stay tuned for that!
@@michaelkauhane4716 awesome! Checkout the Salem Jeepers page on FB and see if something you’d be interested in joining. The main page has several thousand and then there’s a private members page with around 160. We really do have a great family!
@@OverlandScout81 what would you say the dangers are of the sport? I mean obviously rollovers come to mind. Also I guess the Elements Hot and Cold. Anything else?
Hey Paul, I’d rather not give the coordinates but can tell you it’s in the Owyhee Canyon. It’s a big area but a determined overlander should be able to find it. Happy hunting!
Thanks Origen! We’re headed out again this weekend and looking forward to it. Just got back from a trip to Utah too so will have two more videos coming out soon. I generally just find a spot that’s level and don’t mess with leveling blocks. Occasionally I use my maxtrax or rocks.
They certainly are! My friends dog is awesome and I’m looking forward to getting one as well. Looking forward to having a four legged companion to take on these trips.
Google satellite view shows an old camper trailer or bus about 500 yards uphill from your last camping/swimming spot. Did you walk over to check it out?
@@OverlandScout81 I do the same... search and plan all winter, then play all summer & fall! How old was that trailer? Judging by the lack of tracks to it, it looks like no one has driven to it in years.
@@douglashenderson1419 it was really worn down and clearly had been there for a long time. Thought I snapped a picture but couldn’t find one. This is one of the best spots I’ve found and we actually stumbled on it. Its one of those places you’d have to be really determined to get to. We came from the south and covered well over a hundred miles of dusty roads without much to see. It was well worth it though.
I used to ride dual sports for years, and you'll have a great time if you find this place. You'll need to cross a ton of miles over pretty flat dusty roads to get here but it makes the reward that much better. It's all the way in Eastern Oregon.
Hi Mick! Man, I really appreciate it. I picked up making videos as a hobby a few years back and really enjoy the engagement it's bringing with Overlanding. There's a ton more coming this summer!
Hi Charlie, I'm not familiar where the 5 bar ranch is but the oasis is on the Owyhee River. It was a long way to get there over flat and extremely dusty roads that were for the most part unspectacular. We did a map recon of the river and marked multiple locations that we thought would lead down to the river and most of them were a bust. We hadn't marked this spot on the map and actually stumbled on it by chance. I don't want to give the location away but a determined overlander should be able to find it or possibly a place like it. I enjoy all aspects of overlanding especially the "hunt" for amazing locations. Happy hunting!
@@OverlandScout81 Did you go near Rome, Oregon, or the Roman Columns? Anyway, I'm pretty sure it is the same place. There is an incredible hot spring near where you went swimming...
@@charlieswearingen500 We didn't make it up to the pillars of Rome during this trip but I think I know the place you are talking about with the hot spring. If we're thinking the same place, agreed, super cool.
It's in Eastern Oregon. Incredibly beautiful but to get there you have travel over some pretty flat dusty roads that aren't much to write home about. I love all of it though, and it makes the reward that much better.
