Well, you were very fortunate to get a spot anywhere around that lake and not find anyone. I’ve lived in Arizona most of my life, and years ago that was the norm. You could go practically anywhere and not find people. Now, forget it. No matter where you go you will finds loads of young people playing their damn noisy music, partying and getting blind drunk. You just can’t enjoy peace and quiet anymore, anywhere. So, count yourselves very fortunate. My idea in camping is what I did way up north in northern Ontario, Canada. Unbelievable. We went to a provincial park called Algonquin Park and did some portaging. That’s where you go from lake to lake carrying your canoe and gear between each lake. Best camping trip I ever been on. Nobody, absolutely nobody around except my friend and I. And the sounds of the loons on the lake at night was absolutely beautiful. Gotta go back one day, but, like everywhere else these days, it’s over run by noisy drunken young people. Don’t want to be around that at all. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the insight. You can still find private places to camp in many areas, however, almost never on the weekend. As a retired person who lives full-time in my van, I have to say the Friday is by far my most hated day of the week. Mondays are a dream. Thank God most people work Monday through Friday so we can get some privacy.

The state of Colorado is such a beautiful state! Microbrews are one of my husband’s favorite things! 😀We loved visiting Creede (probably 7 years ago). Stephen Quiller, an internationally well known artist and art workshop instructor has a studio in Creede. The outside of the gallery is lavender. The upstairs studio has a wood stove and the back door is open to the mountains. Most of his paintings are of mountains, trees streams and the general terrain in the area. He is also known for his color theory chart which is displayed in the studio. He still travels with his wife and teaches in many European countries. Sorry, probably more than you wanted to know. (I am a plein air watercolor painter.)😊 Thank you for sharing your adventures in Creede. Looking forward to your next Colorado video.👍

new subscriber here. one observation of mine after looking at just one othere video (Gunnison) would be to incorporate the use of putting up a map when describing where you're at, where you're going etc. so the viewers are able to follow along. it would be useful to show where exactly the video is taking place and how relates to the rest of the state geographically speaking. 👍

As someone who is from that area that is pretty much the spring and summer scene for Roosevelt lake. Too bad y'all didn't take the time to get some amazing Globe/Miami style Mexican food though! Apache Trail (road out to Roosevelt from Globe) has Guayos' that is a very popular spot for 'boat' people (as we locals refer to them as) to stop and eat before heading to the lake. I greatly enjoyed your vlog 😊 Thanks for sharing.

Not only have they jumped big in price im not fan of the push button before you can unlatch; one side feels more natural but the there opposite you feel like you need flip your hand. Yes they also scratch real easily. Glass doesnt and glass is also flat doesnt bulge outward asking to get scratched. Now is glass have better thermal properties probably not but are you going to really notice in small space with heater going anyways and glass window off eBay say 200$ same size from TERN 750$ Also i dont know it the arm attachment is screw to frame or riveted, i have found rivets get sloppy over time

Love what you did with this Promaster and aspire to do the same. We are retired and traveled in our Travato for a few years during the pandemic. My husband is not camping as much now so I'd like to get a 1500 and do exactly what you have done with this van. I don't have the build skills you have but am hoping to find someone in the Houston area to do this. Are you still traveling in your van? I see the last video was about a year ago. Very inspiring! If you ever decide to sell this van, I'd be interested! Thank you.
