I spend a few slow days in my 4th gen 4Runner in Olympic National Park; camping, hiking, and sightseeing. I grew up out here and have spent most of my life wandering these forests. This is as much a camping video as it is a love letter to the wild places such as Olympic, a place I hold dearly. I hope you enjoy!

Beautiful video. The Olympic peninsula is one of the most extraordinary places on earth, it touches the soul. Proud to be a lifelong Washingtonian.

Thank you!! I fully agree, especially after traveling extensively abroad. While I wasn’t born here, I am very proud to consider myself from the Olympic peninsula as that’s where I grew up

i come out here all the time. While i dont see it in a romantic way like in this video, it's a great place to have some peace and quiet and catch some fish in peaceful river spots. The drive here just sucks because it's a few hours out.
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 2 месяца назад
Oh for sure, I think I romanticize it because it’s where I grew up and even though I’ve traveling the world, there’s still no place that gives me the same feelings.

For some reason that spot looks familiar when I was out there exploring last year in the evening with my campfire I was able to get a picture of a shooting star. It’s a great area.
@NathanaelBillings

It’s possible you camped nearby or at the same spot! It’s right on the Hoh and outside the national park. One of my new favorite spots for sure, love being so close to the river

I'm from Georgia but come out regularly each year to walk into the Olympics to set up my hammock and just soak in the beauty, greenery, and the awesome peace and quiet. If I could, like you I would live in my Land cruiser if I had to just to call the Olympics my home. Only thing holding me back is the wife has no desire to live there! Hopefully one day I can buy a few acres put a small shelter on it and do short stays.
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 6 месяцев назад
Getting some land out there to put a cabin on for short stays is also my dream. What kind of Land Cruiser do you have? I lived out of my old 87 FJ60 out there for a summer back in 2012. One of my favorite summers!

I love your videos you are so talented. Thank you for sharing them. I saw another commenter ask if you’re drinking instant coffee in another video. Have you tried Bustelo instant? It’s all I drink and tastes so much better to me than regular coffee plus it’s easy to make and can be hot or cold. Great for camping. Looking forward to more of your wonderful videos.
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 6 месяцев назад
Aww thank you!! I have tried bustello and it’s def one of my favs. I keep instant around as a backup for when I run out of beans since I’m in the wilderness for quite a while and there’s no nearby stores to get whole beans. Also sometimes I don’t wanna hassle with making coffee so instant it is!

Great content, how the hell do you not have more subs? Anyway, butter has a low smoke point so if you add some oil that has a higher smoke point it will keep the butter from burning. Just a suggestion
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 6 месяцев назад
Thank you dude!! I don’t have more subs cause I haven’t been consistent but I’m changing that. Good to know about the adding some oil, I’ll def do that next time cause my butter was burning haha I appreciate it!

how are you sittin up?? Do you have a build video? I just bought a 4runner for camping, and I can't sit up. That's a dealbreaker for me. Don't want a van, love my 4R. Love to know how you built yours out.
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 4 месяца назад
I built my platform low just so I could sit up! I don’t have a build video but when I redo my build later this year, I’ll be making a video of that. I’ll be making it even lower to be able to sit up better.

If you don't know already , it seems like your tires are too big for your suspension. Maybe time to upgrade you a toyota sequoia. I have a first gen so much space. You migh😢 be supris🎉
@NathanaelBillings
@NathanaelBillings 6 месяцев назад
Oh they do look a little big cause I have no lift but they don't rub at all! I'll be putting a suspension lift on at some point cause my spring and shocks are pretty tired. A Sequoia is enticing but I've got my eyes on a couple different Toyota 4x4's for an upgrade
