Solo 4Runner winter camping at a cute Tucson Hipcamp + exploring some desert ruins 

Hello! 1st!!! Looks like you found another cool place to camp! Good to see Gunther back with you again! He looks well, glad he's healing.

I’m amazed at your set up. Especially the mini bar for cocktails 😂 it was good to see Gunther back with you. The campsite was cool. Safe travels❤

Ammo can coffee kit?! Yess!! So grateful for a shot of Arizona sunshine. It’s -46 deg C here so RU-vid & dreaming is the closest I’ll get to camping for a few months. Vitamin D through screen osmosis. 😎

This looked so tranquil. Heck those restrooms got my vote!!!! 🙌

Love the brown fuzzy blanket

This camp ground is well maintained, this it would be a place anyone can got to camp and feel safe

Rave in the morning, lol! Nice quick trip. Love the mini fire pit 😁. Thanks for taking us along, cheers!!

Gunther and I have the same normal activities (sleeping 😂). So glad he’s feeling better!! Loved the video as always. 💚🐶💚

Recently returned to AZ to live closer to the Phoenix family and landed in Tucson. I'm learning a lot about the area from your adventures so thanks!

Love, hip camp. So lucky you have them there. Fun to see beautiful.

I'm glad you brought up that vehicle noise mystery. I do a lot of suv camping in my 2015 Toyota Highlander & it makes the same bazaar tiny motor running noise, seemingly in the back end. It always made me nervous because I thought, 💭 great if this doesn't stop it's going to deplete my battery. (It goes for a few minutes & then shuts off thankfully.) Odd thing though, it isn't an every day noise after I shut the rig down, it runs about once a week. Thanks for posting your google search results on this mystery noise.👍That ammo box coffee kit is a cute little must-have on cold mornings in your rig I bet.👌 Thx 4 the good video!

I love your 4runner build, I wish i'd known about your channel sooner, as i'd incorporate many of your ideas on Bluto, my 2017 SR5. Anywho, my wife and I really enjoy your channel. Keep at it!

Enjoyed this video so much! At least until the rave. 🤣 That cornbread!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 I love all of your gadgets, and space saving equipment. 🫡

I gave up on sleeping bags when I discovered wool blankets - recommended by Bob Wells. No more tangles and zippers. Have not used my electric blanket since.

Just love your videos! I still haven’t truck camp, maybe one day☺️. Love your set up!

Stumbled upon you channel. Really enjoy it!!

Your entire setup is genius Ms Martha but the thing about your no build / build that I absolutely marvel at are those two panels you have in the back windows those two functional panels. I would love to put at least one of those in the back window of my minivan I'm going to try to figure out something based off of your idea. I love everything you do you are an amazing person!!❤

Thanks!

I enjoyed this adventure quite a bit. The only thing I wouldn't care for is the shooting while out exploring.😕 So good to see you out with Gunther again. ❤ I got a laugh out of your morning "rave" 😅 I'm looking forward to the pie-iron video. 😊👍

I get that sound as well on my 4Runner. Asked about it in a 4Runner group and forgot what the explanation is but it’s totally normal and nothing to worry about.

You will also hear a noise when you turn off the vehicle shortly afterwards. This is the secondary air Injection pump coming on to clear out/blow out any debris/water etc. In the earlier years when they introduced the secondary air Injection pump/emission reasons, when it was not being used while driving, it could fill up or get water in them and cause problems later on. So they have it clear itself out when you turn off the truck. Like a zoom noise. This is a great link to understand in detail your 5th gen 4Runner engine. This guy has a 6 video series on the 4Runner, this is a link to the first/engine. He's was master mechanic for Toyota 20+ years and now ventured out on his own and opened up his own shop. Toyotas/Lexus exclusively. Love your videos as usual. I was where you were this time last year. Getting ready to take mine and go from Atlanta to tour BigBend, Guadalupe, Carlsbad national parks and then northern New Mexico forests. I implement some of your items and techniques on last years trip. However, I am not a foodie. I am boring when it comes to diet while disperse camping. I have mentioned this in the past on some of your videos. Love Gunther as always. Looking for a traveling rescue myself. If the link I provided does not work, search "Should you buy a Toyota 4Runner? Why is it so reliable?" RU-vid. You may already know this stuff, you are well versed on just about anything! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wDeLFAAJCyk.htmlsi=Xx2zpVBnw6lZMA-u

Timing is good. Twenty radiation sessions to go. Half way there. Drink an extra one for me.

What a great place. That camp space is beautiful..absolute perfection. So good to see little Mr G back out n about. I have a dumb question. What please is a hip camp? Not sure what that means. Sorry im an old woman..lol. Thank you. I looked on your lists but can't find the thing I want to know about. That tiny STANLEY cup with screw lid you keep your coffee in.

Really like your content..and process. I must have missed it somehow.. The ammo box coffee kit- your idea /build ? please share the how or where. thanks-Angela

Hi! I just found your channel and I am loving your content! I bought a 2023 4Runner TRD last summer (I had 2014 previously) and have been doing some public land camping in central and northern FL. Looking at your 4Runner build has given me some ideas for improving my setup. I have had a Napier SUV tent for a while, but honestly it is getting to be a bit too heavy for one person to manage. So, I ordered the Sportz Cove that I saw that you were using. I already have a Luno air mattress for the back of the 4Runner. I'm glad to see that Gunther has recovered well from his bladder stone surgery. I travel with 2 Frenchies, Ivy and Gus. Ivy had the same surgery this past November. It took her a while to recover as she is 9. How do you protect Gunther from fleas and ticks when you are out camping with him? Looking forward to more great content!

Love that HipCamp (minus the barking dogs). 😂 But, from what I’ve seen on the Internet, I believe your superflame issue with your little butane heater is due to the can laying on its side. Apparently, canisters need to be kept vertical for proper operation. Something to check out.

You were in my hood. Ironwood is a good place for astrophotoghy but can be a little shady. I always take protection and recommend going with a friend. Border Patrol is usually out there. Looking forward to you getting your drone up, they're a lot of fun.

Im clear on everything ammo can EXCEPT mounting the lid to the side

Cool little spot except for the dogs barking 😅

This video isn’t suitable for young people 🤷‍♀️ way too much alcohol 😢 It’s up to you what you’re doing to your health, just showing such bad habits in an outdoor video? Don’t think it’s appropriate!
