One recommendation for hiking, get your gmrs license and carry a gmrs radio with you. Both are inexpensive and if anything should happen you have the ability to contact others. I was a volunteer search and rescue technician for 15 years, and if we were looking for missing hikers we always asked if the missing person carried a radio. That way we could use the standard gmrs frequencies to aid in searching for people. Also, since you carry a backpack with you, never never leave it somewhere. Always keep it with you. When you hit your head, you could have injured yourself and needed items in you pack that you did not have. Take it off and crawl through the narrows, but keep a hold of it. Just my opinions.....

You're so much fun Sarah. I'm so glad that cousin Nikki introduced us to you!!! Have a lot of fun and be safe!!!

Your channel is picking up subscribers pretty quick ! Way to go Sarah !

You are absolutely adorable.I love your videos.Keep up the good work.Be safe

Keep a apple air tag in your car in case you forget one day where your car is at it will help you find it

100% agree with Dave and my recommendation is to always carry at the very least one trekking pole. These work great for warding off unwanted encounters with critters and reptiles. Can also be used as a make shift splint if needed. Also be sure your first aid kit has a Mylar blanket. This will help keep you warm in case you can’t find your pack and it gets dark and the temp drops. ILove the videos! Keep up the good work :)

This little girl deserves millions & billions subscribers ❤❤❤

Nice pack. You should always carry the 10 Essentials, even on a day hike (food, water, shelter, fire starter, etc... look up the recommended list). You should consider getting a Garmin InReach, or similar, if you don't have one already. You can message for rescue when out of cell service, best for those remote hikes.

I love how casual and easy you make everything look!

Sarah, you're hilarious! "Once you hit 25, it's down hill from there." And the pee/toothbrush cup?! 😅😅😅😅

Always carry a loud whistle. Regardless of hiking or not. Just to scare off animals and to alert people if you have a fall & lose your phone.

I love watching all your content Sarah you're so inspiring that beautiful smile lights up the world and has impact on people's day, thank you for the great content keep up the good work I wish you and Nikki the best and look forward to upcoming Adventures stay safe take care🫶

Most deaths in the backcountry are from exposure and dehydration so here are few small, and light things, to carry: water treatment pills, Mylar emergency blanket, cheap poncho and have some waterproof, strike anywhere matches. Wet and cold is a combination for an overnight death. Reason for carrying this additional items is you want to be able to survive a night or two just in case. Good luck and have fun!

please get her some more cups Nikki.

Each new video is better than the last!

Love all your video cousin Sarah and Nikki D.! ❤

Thank you young lady for all the wonderful views, so glad you are keeping yourself safe... I know Nikki has to be so proud of you. You two make this old woman's heart smile. I love watching both of yours adventures... Stay safe and you two enjoy life on your own terms.. Please always remember mistakes/failures is nothing but lessons learned so learn the lesson and keep moving forward. Wishing you both all the best life has to offer... 💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏

Enjoyed your video, might I suggest 3 items while your out hiking, a utility knife life a Swiss army knife, a good rechargeable flashlight and last but not least an external battery pack that you use to charge your phone, go pro camera etc. As for hitting 25 and going down hill from there, haha welcome to the club. Travel safe...

That lake and surrounding area has a lot of history, on your next trip there stop at the visitor center.

Had to pause the video to let you know, when you said, "These look like little poops," I laughed so hard I scared both of my dogs out of a deep snooze. OK, back to the video....

Yay, you did it. Great job, I am so proud of you. 😊👏

Hey Friend, Suggestion try using a block of ice..it will last way longer. Cheers

Congrats on wild camping success. As long as the coyotes stay quiet it can be really peaceful. Enjoy!

And as Nikki always says, "leave no trace" when hiking and camping.

You’re doing great,

I would also get a good tactical flashlight like a Fenix with a SOS/strobe function. If you are injured in a remote place at night, it could help air assets find you. I would also get your Technicians Class Ham license (really easy) and carry a ham walkie-talkie radio with you as well. You can get a Baofeng for less than $100. Also an Airtag for your backpack!

Good Job Sarah 👸🗺🇺🇲🇨🇦🧭🚙👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your sense of humor is really starting to shine and you are getting more confident in front of the camera Sarah. Nicely done!

You’re doing great, Sarah!

KT tape, or Leuko Tape works better than any bandaid for blister care, and always worth having in a kit for hiking, aquatabs and a water filter are 2 more must haves....while you may never need one, i always recommend keeping a couple mylar blankets in the kit too...they are super small to pack, but in case of emergency, you can use to stay warm...one to protect from ground cold, another around the body .....personally i always have the water filter and tabs, and a fire starter, and the mylar blankets for shelter/warmth, in addition to a first aid kit on any hike i go....the ability ro source drinking water, stay warm and sheltered should always be on hand...above and beyond any water or food brought....a person could go on about things that are useful...i always pack a rechargeable headlamp, battery bank and never hike without a garmin inreach explorer or in reach mini

“These look like little poops” shu shu lmao 😂. That had me laughing!

I think block ice lasts longer in the cooler. Love your videos.

25!! Try almost 60! My brain says I'm 25. Everything else says otherwise!! 🤪

How beautiful! I'm jealous! What happened to your jar of peanut butter in your car door? LOL When I'm outdoors I wear a cotton sailor-style hat. I can fold a bill when I want, or put it up when I don't. It also covers my ears from the sun, and is cooler than baseball caps. It's also better if it starts to rain. Also, I love a walking stick! Just one for me. When you left you backpack behind, you also left your first-aid kit and water/food. You could pack an essentials bag inside your backpack (a small backpack inside the backpack) and then left the larger one at the entrance, and the lighter one with water and first-aid kit you'd take with you. However, its best to take the pack with you so you don't have to double back for it. I bet you'll get a lot of comments like this about your backpack. LOL Keep on having fun!

You are an inspiration! you are doing a GREAT job on your videos! A lot of great tips, too!

I know the feeling-I rented a Tiger motorhome for a week to check out dispersed camping spots on the dirt roads in the Rockies. The first night was a little strange. No cell service and no one around. But after that I was just loving it. Maybe put a portable battery on your list for your next shopping spree.

Hey Sarah! I love your travels. I appreciate you sharing the beautiful scenery. I wish you safe travels and wonderful experiences!❤🙏🏻

Things you might want to add to your list of hiking essentials are a lighter, Knife ( I recommend at least a Leatherman plier multiool with a sharp blade... good for glove box as well as hiking) and a distress whistle.

Your face with the granola bar 😂 Epic!

Some extra Bandaids, or a small first aid kit with the essentials are always good for hikes. I also always carry an Ankle Brace because I have a bad ankle, and you can never be too safe. You also never know when you or someone else may need it.

Another good video, Niki better watch out! At 80, I have spent many thousands of nights camping alone in many situations. I have felt uneasy and packed up and moved less than 10 times. But if anybody gives you the least feeling of unease, the least mind you, quietly and unobtrusively leave. Don't worry about doing your usual leave prep, just leave without drawing attention to yourself. It will happen very, very infrequently (10 out of thousands), but when it does, act.

Okay, but those wolf hiking socks are hella cute! I'm the same, only buy things if I really need them. You definitely earned the backpack, hiking shoes and socks though. Another great video, Sarah 😊 congrats on making it through your night wild camping 🎉 Losing your eating utensil, you sound just like Nikki 🤣

You might consider putting an Airtag in your backpack in case you ever really lose it. It would require you having your phone with you and having cell service in order to find it but I suspect that you usually will have cell service where you are hiking. I have AirTags stashed in most of my serious gear.

Like your video and the detailed list of how to be prepared for things going wrong when hiking. I live in Colorado and rarely go hiking in the mountains alone unless there are enough other people nearby.....mountain lions are my main concern. Like the personality you add....the quick song bites....the playfulness....and of course, the great scenery. Blessings to you! Keep the good videos going!

trekking poles might be helpful for the knee. I always hike with them, and they have saved me from several tumbles and sprained ankles.

Looking spectacular at always. Safe travels!

Great video....I usually take a portable charger on my hikes!

Enjoying your content!!

Keep up the good work Sarah. Pray you do well wherever you go. You are doing awesome 😁 and we are super proud of You

Love your videos, Sarah! So fun!

Congratulations on overcoming the fear! I really enjoy your videos, thank you for sharing your adventures!

Just also watched your stint with 'Cuz Nikki. Awesome! 👌♥️🇵🇭

You’re such an Inspiration ❤❤❤

Each video you produce you’re getting more comfortable. Keep it up love your adventures.

Eating from a can is part of wild camping. Enjoy your great videos and keep safe.

To borrow the quote from little seven-year-old snowboarder sensation Cashy Rowley “Keep Doing It Scared!” I feel for you doing this adventure all by yourself. Stay safe! Keep sharing this wonderful content and you will soon be in a nice RV like your cousin. You too will soon be staring down a million subscribers.

That canyon reminds me of that film 127 hours which I have not long watched, take care sarah.

Like you (9:25), I'm soon to hit 25....well....back in 1985, that is!! Been watching your vids a while now, and just hit that button! Keep up the fun!!

Hi Sarita, yes I also remembered that episode of bob , those tuffs are very hard, maybe we should add a helmet to the equipment. 😊😊

Sarah might be time to invest in a jackery power source and a refrigerator cooler for food. Also some basic camping cooking stuff and you could at least have hot beans and corn next go round.

You did it! So proud of you! Knew you could do it...

Just want to see you for another great video and thank you for taking me along and did you think maybe want her to carry some extra shoe strings along in your bag

Canned beans and canned corn.. lol.. Have been there several times myself . You've got this girl.

Good job for being braver your second go at wild camping. Really loving your videos.

Love it! Dirty car = lot of adventure !

Beautiful views there! Keep up the good work with the videos. I see all the editing tricks you got going on there!

I Love your content and your cousin Nikki’s too! You’re both one of a kind… ❤️ 🤗 🌹

First Aid kit definitely a must considering I just watched you hit your head inside Nikki's van, and then this video on a rock.

Has anyone told you today how cute and smart you are? You should hear that at least every day cause it's true. also please be careful where you leave your backpack in the open. You don't want to find out something crawled inside. You're Awesome. Stay safe.

I wouldn’t camp off-grid by myself, so you’re ahead of me 😊

Hey, I had canned beans and corn for dinner too! You're my hobo kindred spirit. #TeamBerkowitz

Good job sticking it out!

I want pizza now.Wait till 50+ if you think it's downhill now.A small propane Coleman stove or similar may make a big difference in your beans and corn dinners.Snow packed mountains in the background of the desert, nice shots.

2:22 wow that sky view was Awesome! Sarah really enjoying your channel, you have a softer approach, not that Nikki is aggressive but she is loud lol! in a good way

Great job! Enjoying going along on your adventures! Keep on truckin'

Congratulations on wild camping. Great job love the conten. 😊

Good job, you're doing everything right. Good luck and have fun.

Very enjoyable video. It's clear whom your mentor is!

25 and already going downhill, lol love it. Sarah, you've got all the basics covered just watch your six and keep to your routine. Nikki D is sure pushing that dog button HARD! lol... maybe a cushion with a dog face will do and petting someone else's dog will suffice, for now. Thanks for Sharing.

Beautiful scenery

You are doing great Sarah..your Smile means a lot and you once again are great. Thanks for share your Day ..Greetings from Germany..Sergio ❤

Fun, rich content, well edited video. Nice backpack and shoes. Recommend wearing a Purple Rain Skirt for hiking comfort. Beautiful locations and scenes. Great wild camping #2, congratulations. Thanks for sharing another adventure.

Awesome! Love the new hiking gear!!!

No judgement about food -- I usually tell people to carry tins of sardines in olive oil, unless they're vegan. Shelf stable protein that goes with almost anything. If you need a "grain", cous cous requires minimal cooking (same as coffee or tea), and combines well with any canned vegetable. Oh, and for saving leftover canned goods, I pick up a few plastic pet food can covers.

Hi! At the beginning of the video, when all you see is the hand, remote, and the back door opening and showing the million dollar view, could be your opening scene for every video! Maybe put your name in front of the window, and slow fade it out to the show the view! That would be your awesome opening!

You should use sunscreen lip balm. I use Banana Boat SPF 45...

You need to get a dog for hiking, their senses are much better than ours and can alert you to things you might not know are there, my previous dog once alerted me to a black bear, luckily it did its thing and went about it’s life without an interaction too close to me and my current dog alerted me to a cougar that I would have never known and actually the only trace I seen of it were it’s tracks but the pup started tracking a scent and actually took me direct to the physical tracks where I was able to identify what she was after.

Keep up the great work and only do what is comfortable for you.

Wow i'm enjoying seeing those narrow paths through granite/sandstone rocks with colorful striations. Do keep an eye out for rattle snakes hiding in the shadows trying to keep cooler. When you can, get a Jackery to keep a mini fridge going for cold food storage. Loved seeing the interesting adventure you went on especially the hot springs, hiking and off grid camping. Happy travels!

We love you! Be safe.

Great video, Sharah. I also, watch your cousin Nikki videos too, you both do a great job filming. I have a question about car camping? Do you have enough air in the SUV to breath at night or do you keep a window down a little to get air inside. Always wondered about that, I see a lot of KZfaqrs car camping. Thanks. Stay safe and keep up the good work you do.

Hey car camper here. Get a couple more cups. You don't wanna commit a mistake . A portable coleman gas Stove will change your car camping game.. Expert park chef speaking ha

Thank you very much for the new video! What beautiful nature! The mountains look great! Nature is beautiful, but not enough to compare with dear Sarah.

Keep at it! Your vids are getting better and better!!

Maybe it may be usefull to bring something against the heat and something against the rain during a hike. But that is only due to own experience! Good video! ❤

Awesome video..ahhh could you please make a tutorial video ,step by step 🕺🏿🎶🎵, on how to fight sasquatches away from my campsite...ty Sarah❤...looking forward

Sarah, you should get one of those GPS wristwatches, that tracks your movements. I seen ForestyForest use one for when he's hiking in the deep mountains of Canada by himself. The watch provides the ability to follow the path back in your exact steps. So you can never get lost. Plus it connects to satellites so if you need emergency services, it will call them for you. Also girrrrrrrrl you need another cup! dont catch a fever! Thanks I been looking for that intro song for a long time!!

For extra protection i'd have a 9mm just in the car. Conceal and carry permit 👍

Hi Sarah, wow, please don’t get lost. I don’t have any sense of direction. I hope you do. lol. I know this is going to be fun going along with you and Nikki. You both find some beautiful places. Thanks, see you next time.

Hi Sarah. Always enjoy your videos. Just watched your collab vid with Nikki too. I am not going to preach to you, but there are some very worthwhile tips and info in the comments on this vid. As your (luckily) minor bonk on the head showed, you just never know when something is going to jump up and smack you. Having a pack full of safety equipment isn't so effective if you have left it behind. A more serious head wound or an unfriendly animal etc can be trouble if you don't have that stuff within easy reach. Okay, so I preached a little. Big congrats on your 1st solo wild camping experience. Looking forward to whatever is next. Stay safe and well and of course adorable. Have fun!!!
