Thank you very much! Couldn't agree more, falling asleep to rain is one of the best. Good thing we get plenty of opportunities here in the Pacific Northwest... 😆 😉

That's always the goal, try to provide a little break from the daily chaos in our lives 😉 👍

Oh right!! I came across one as well on this trip but he darted into the tree line too fast for me to capture on camera... haha

Thank you so much, appreciate the continued support!

Right on! Glad to hear you guys got out and explored the area! Gifford has a lot to offer and if you visit during the offseason of fall or early winter, you almost have the place to yourself. Thank you for watching and the support, means a lot!

Hahaha nothing wrong with that! 😆

Thank you very much!

Haha I do remember that car, that’s awesome!! Just on my morning commute to work… 😆 Appreciate you reaching out and the support! 🙌

@@ConquestOverland realistically, we might work at the same place if we’ve got that similar morning commute. I was pretty close to work at that point! Love the videos, we have extremely similar weekend pastimes. I moved here in January, and spent the spring and summer breaking trails all through the snoqualmie NF north of ranier. See you around, you’ll get a wave next time!

Thank you very much, appreciate the continued support! Hope your summer travels are going well!

@@ConquestOverland Yezzir, thank you first. Going over by Forks around the Sitkum Soleduck trails. Making a 3 day weekend out of it. I was gonna go up by Lake Diablo however the fire in the area changed my plans. Cheers!

Soon enough!! ❤️

Haha, I can do that next time I bring it for a trip! Stay tuned! 😉

Definitely was a blast! Good to get out on the lake again with the kayak!

Thank you! Try to make most videos that way 😉👍

Really appreciate the kind words, means a lot! You’ll absolutely love the PNW when you make it up here, regardless of the season! Cheers

Right on! How you liking your 4xe? I’m running the Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws, they are a great year round tire and I hardly noticed any difference in mileage! The stock tires were okay but didn’t feel the sidewall would be strong enough offroad when aired downed so I didn’t risk it 😉👍 Appreciate the support, hope your summer travels are going well!

Oh right on! I’m sure we’ll cross paths again soon enough, just will have to flag me down in the trail when we do 😆

Thank you so much! I’m using the DJI Mini 3 Pro, it was one of the best investments for sure. They just released a new one so who knows, might be able to strike a deal on the prior model with some accessories!

Thank you! They are a perfect platform for those needing an all-in-one daily commuter and weekend warrior. Interior room has been a little of a challenge though everyone's needs will be different. I simply lay the rear seats down which give additional storage capability for cargo cases, fridge, fireplace, 5 gal. propane tank, table, chairs, personal bag, camera bag, etc. It's a little tight with the roof being taken up by the RTT though if you decided to use a roof cargo box like Thule or Yakima, you should have plenty of room even with a small family.

Thank you!

Plenty of other channels with out there! Sad your adventures are defined by a singular tool… ✌️

The Iceco APL 55 👍

As someone who advocates for this topic constantly, folks are going to get out and explore regardless. The difference is those who provide exact coordinates, especially those who profit from doing so. If you’ve been watching the channel long enough you’ll find that I’ve done neither leaving the exploration of such locations as part of the adventure (read the “where is this” comments in literally any video of mine). Reason it was busy is because it’s peak summer season and easy accessibility to the numerous campgrounds. I’ve been here in the rainy months only to find no one around. In all honesty, I’m the least of the problem compared to most you probably follow on social media… 🤷‍♂️ Thanks for watching though and the continued support!

@@ConquestOverland Fair enough. You see it one way, I see it another. Debate is healthy and these are good questions we should all be asking ourselves. I still feel like even naming the forest or specific towns is enough to make an impact. Between the increased human caused fires and trash issues I've seen from the uptick in casual people who aren't aware or don't care as much about these areas or their own impact, I feel like it's worth speaking out more on this topic among the youtube/social media community (not even just overland KZfaqrs). Maybe I'm being unreasonable, I don't know. But I see the impact and think this is worthy of conversation in this community. I would still watch and enjoy your videos all the same if you never mentioned a single location. I appreciate the response brother. Thanks for the content and inspiration.
