Been camping and riding in that area for over 3 decades. That looked to be a brookie which growing up were so plentiful there barely was a bag limit, not so today. Timberline trail back when it was more fun than work into Tin Cup, then over to Cement creek. Just a few. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for watching y’all! I think I need to replace the spark plugs. I rode with Dalton yesterday and the bike had the same hesitation for a little at first and Dr Dalton said my plugs probably fouled from when I rode the bike with the check engine light on. Wish y’all were here to ride with too!

Good job on the KTM! My wife and I recently got a cat and are wondering how you manage all your cats needs full time on the road. We aren't full timers yet but we are planning on leaving Montana through the winters soon and taking the dog (easy) and cat with us for extended trips. Not sure if that's video worthy or not.
@thecumminscamper
@thecumminscamper Ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! To answer your cat question, it helps if your cat has been an indoor cat to satisfy their needs. If you have an outdoor cat you’ll need to take extra precautions and put in extra effort to provide them a safe way to explore the outside world. Our cat has been an indoor guy for his whole life so it was a relatively easy transition. We’d bring him out to the camper from the house for 2 hours or so and hang out in the camper to get him acclimated before we started taking him on weekend adventures before we became full time nomads. Inside the camper our cat has his bed in the cab over window, his litter box lives in our bathroom. I put a little cat/dog door on the bi-folding bathroom door so he has 24 hour access. We tried giving our cat a scratching post in the camper by tying hemp/twine around the table leg but his favorite thing to scratch is our cheap entry carpet but every cats going to be different. I think our cat loves the changing views and smells that he gets by traveling but I also think he enjoys when we visit our rental houses so he can run around and stretch his legs.

Great video! The views you shot are awesome! I'm glad you got the bike fixed. Question: Is there a boondocking reference book you would recommend?
@thecumminscamper
@thecumminscamper Ай бұрын
Thanks Ben! I greatly appreciate the compliments on the video and the shots within it. I don’t know of any books that I’d reference for boondocking. I feel like KZfaq’s replaced where people go for knowledge and has made books more obsolete. I’d make a video on boondocking and what we do that allows us to be off grid longer.
@benpriester6657
@benpriester6657 Ай бұрын
@thecumminscamper I'd love to see a boondocking video from you. However, your boondocking has more flexibility than what mine would be due to the size of my toyhauler. It's 40' long. However, your weight is pretty close. My GVWR is 21,500 lbs. Safe travels, and I hope you catch some keepers when you're fishing.

Thanks so much! The cameras the same go-pro we’ve been using for months. From your description of the video I’m wondering if the playback setting on your end is set to a low quality rate? I know when I watch YT sometimes I have to change the quality setting on my phone or TV because it defaults to a lower quality to save data.
