The Most Challenging Hike of our Lives and Car Camping Hygiene

[@SandmanCoco]

I like your pen analogy; sometimes it does seem like we make life harder than it has to be. We watch a TED talk video titled "Life is easy. Why do we make it so hard? | Jon Jandai | TEDxDoiSuthep" (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGLNkIJ5g7Goj8k ) to remind us to keep it simple.

[@ThisIsLifeNow]

Honestly, it doesn't matter to me, what you video. Those water shots were fantastic! I can't wait for the Alaskan Series, but no rush on your part. Thank you for taking us along on your journey.

[@MsLB-lm9mu]

This is the absolute best channel. You 4 are a great team. Love you all!

[@sunniross7043]

I grew up with Mt Rainier in my backyard... most of the time it was not visible because of clouds/overcast. Whenever the weather is fine, western Washingtonians are known to greet each other with 'mountains out!'. Once I heard a children's sermon in which the pastor used this as a description of faith. He asked the children whether they could always see Mt Rainier, and of course their answer was no. So, he asked 'but you know it's still there right?' That's much like God in our life! Sometimes, God's glorious touch is obvious and sometimes it's just 'known'. And if we doubt that Mt Rainier is there anymore, we just have to get closer til we can see it! Just like God!!! Awesome metaphor that I've never forgotten, and I heard it at least 45 years ago.

[@FreeSpiritMom]

I’m here for the dancing 🙌🏾

[@kit3182]

I absolutely adore y’all’s relationship! I love my mom so much and could see us doing this if I was single. There’s nothing more special than your momma being your best friend✨✨✨Best luck to y’all!

[@kellyriddle9915]

I am SO Happy for you & your lovely momma get to have this special bonding experience, and THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for sharing your adventures with us!!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 The scenery is STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS!!!!!!💜💜💜🙌🏼 Also, CONGRATULATIONS on your new property and home in Alaska!!!

[@PCinDC]

BTW, LOVE the flamingo pink jacket! You most definitely need to be seen.👀

[@StephieZ84]

I'm soooo excited for y'all and the adventure to Alaska

[@MyVividLife]

Great video. You were in happy spirits in this one, lots of dancing! Enjoyed this one!

[@BuckleBunny]

😋 looks good. Add mustard powder and paprika to the fried tofu, it will change your like.

[@bettip4331]

21:05 is def my favorite part of this video

[@kemi1486]

I’m always so proud of you ladies. You ladies are always trying. Nothing tried, nothing failed right! I love your mom’s open mindedness and support. Partners in crime haha. You two are my kind of people. Good luck with everything!

[@mimib6955]

There are people who live in walled tents and yurts all year round. I don't like saying goodbye either. I usually say till next time. Sending hugs!

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

This is true!

[@vanessasandberg2786]

What a beautiful hike! I love to see how you both pep each other up during challenges! I see many more mountain hikes in your future.

[@kellyriddle9915]

William is ADORABLE!!!!!💜💜💜

[@journeytobalance]

Proud of you beauties for challenging yourselves!! Thank you for your inspiring spirit!! 🤩✨

[@blkbird022]

Love and togetherness is so beautiful….🦋🦋🦋, Stay safe…

[@isabel441]

omg the dance moves reminded me of Tracy from the Netflix series Chewing Gum ahah

[@tanishajones6071]

So inspiring, we enjoy your love for each other. Beautiful 🌺

[@carolynkeys4027]

Love your video even 2-3 years later. From Grandma K

[@soupingsoup]

i think it would be a good idea for you and/or mom to add short videos to your channel(s) of your camp cooking asmr!! i love thinking abt n knowing what possible meals are your go to’s and what you guys make on a time crunch etc also lots of people just love asmr tht snippet of you making the salad was the best :)

[@777LadyVenus]

How beautiful ❤️♥️❤️ glad you ladies made it.....much love to you and your beautiful Mama

[@lovebahs]

Nice ideas. Yiu can civer the deck with the clear corrugated plastic roofing so you can still be outside when its raining but still see the sky.

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

Yup that’s the plan!

[@CosmicRBG]

Alot folks here in the states are all about working, well cause that's how you attain materials, its good you see or atleast living a life in which you show what's of value to you. And yes profound statement you said, "there's more power in/with the family." Unity=Power

[@PCinDC]

You guys are rock stars!😎 🌟 Bex was smiling at the top of mountain ⛰ ...don't know if I would have been. But those views from the top 😍😍😍😍😍 #spectacular!!

[@ronethridge9875]

like the long-long hikes-walks /why not take sport or gatoraid on trail /thanks much

[@Bigekanelives]

I love your videos, im so happy I finally have a travel channel to watch 💯🙏🏽

[@Bigcat624]

I’m so proud of you and your mom. Wall tents 🏕 are very nice. I can’t wait to see it.

[@astrogypsy]

Lol. I'm going from a 2 door TJ and camper to a 4 door JK. Build just starting. Can't believe I watched someone wash dishes. ha. But it's about leaning the solutions. Thx Lui.

[@narissabond6383]

How beautiful! You two are so lucky. What a great trail!!! And what a view!!!!

[@shannonbaldus5458]

i love the dogs little carry thingy

[@melissagray6603]

If you grill those green onions whole or slow fry them they are so tender and delicious 😍

[@tanishasmith4405]

I think that's awesome, and its great the both of you have a plan on what you want to live in.

[@shannonbaldus5458]

you should get a doggie back pack that hold their water and all the stuff they need like a collapsible bowl. so the dogs can carry their own stuff

[@bishop7534]

Every time I watch a video of you both hiking gets me motivated to get back walking. Wished I had friends to do trails with but the local parks will do...question(s), do you keep a digital copy of the wonderful places you've been? Would be cool to see something like that one day.. Anyways, you should've been tired running ahead to place the camera down then running back to get it 😁😅 bet you actually walked 8 miles because of it lol Can't wait to see the property as well as what Mom & you build on the land.

[@sosmileetunstall5863]

Thanks. I have been saving to buy a Springbar wall tent with a stove. So it was great to see a visual of the space. I am so excited to be able to see your adventures.

[@danyelg.6890]

I remember before you cut your hair that our curl texture was somewhat similar. Your hair has grown a lot since then so I was thinking maybe you can try doing a protective style while telling us a story about one of your adventures. Twists/braids can keep your hair protected for a good week and a half to two weeks (sometimes even longer)! Also, congratulations to you and your mom for completing the hike! I can’t wait to see your land in Alaska! Save travels 🖤

[@MustacheNinja104]

you seem sooooo lovely :)) the earth is blessed to have you grace it :)

[@sophiar1855]

Those tents are considered glamping! I have seen them on platforms with a covered porch, bathrooms, kitchens and bedroom.

[@carolinagirl53]

When I am out camping and if near a running river or stream I dip a bucket of water from it and warm a pot of it to make a relaxing shower. I used bungee cords and a tarp as an enclosure. Wear water shoes do my feet want get dirty. Where there is a will, there is a way.

[@KristinaRaqs]

I honestly love storylines and seeing your mom and you interact. Fav part of the channel. Love seeing your cookie inspo.

[@maemoodog]

Great video. A wall tent is a great idea.

[@mdrb823]

That trail looks gorgeous! Great shots.

[@jamieabel477]

A water filter will lighten your load if you know there will be reliable streams on trail.

[@sherellealex]

Beautiful hike...love the nature and cooking videos.😊

[@pennylowe8713]

I have had no water for 3 years. I use the two two spray bottles method 1.water and 2.alcohol and "cheap gold mouth wash". or vinegar and water. I like the first method, which is also my hand sanitizer. So easy and always ready. Oh and it kills bug too.

[@Jose-ly6sg]

You and your mom look so cool driving in two cool vehicles like something out of a movie. Great video. Thank you

[@keishafortune7714]

Just a suggestion but maybe you can make use of rain water although I think it's harder to wash off soap, but it can be used.

[@kburkes4245]

Great video! I was sorry to hear yesterday about Canada border staying closed for another month. Hope you all can get through soon!

[@carolinagirl53]

Exactly. They said extended until July 21st.

[@ashley347100]

Like that's is a good idea like omg I can't wait to c it❤️❤️❤️

[@GwenDeeful]

Beautiful views. It looked amazing. 16 x 20 feet sounds great. Where are you going to live in the winter? Sounds like a great start during the summer. It is so wonderful watching your journeys.

[@novenebainter6866]

Good job ladies!!

[@leyhaw6762]

lol you’re so happy i love it

[@darlenekeene755]

Another great video. I am really so excited for your upcoming Alaska journey. I think you are going to love your new home.

[@gj0628]

You are fine !

[@nylapsalms4678]

[@dwalker6868]

Thank you beautiful

[@blahblah2blahblah260]

You guys are refreshingly funny. Love it! Boy I wish I were there in a place like that.

[@PuprleFox]

Beautiful shots when u were hiking!

[@Clarinda1963]

Awesome video❤️

[@leyhaw6762]

how do you keep the bugs from attacking you?

[@estherstephens1858]

Go mom!!! You guys touched it out on that hike! Oh, by the way, I’m glad the weather was cool for you during the start of your hike. I knew you would warm up. 😂. Can’t wait to see your future journey. Stay safe.

[@floralendurance]

THAT THUMBNAIL😅🤣

[@blahblah2blahblah260]

This is so beautiful. Thanks Loui.

[@lovebeauty7866]

Loui, speaking of hygiene, how do you and your mom clean the dogs from the hikes? Since they sort of sleep where you sleep, are you concerned that they are bringing in dirt and such in the beds?

[@vagabonddeesadventures8491]

Congrats on the land purchase. Where in Alaska? I have always wanted to stay in a yurt. So folks will want to stay in your tent. Be well and stay safe. Love to Mom and the fur babies.

[@Living_LovingSanDiego]

Thanks for sharing. Loved the hike

[@sylviaaguilar4550]

Thank you for another great video...I just love your life. You both bring happiness into my life, I suffer from anxiety and it's hard for me to get out. Again thank you...hugs and kisses. Btw the food, delish...I love tofu....

[@ZuriDsWellness]

FYI, If your gonna keep hiking like that you might wanna get yourselves some KT-Tape and Arnica Salve from Amazon... Just Say-in... Kudos

[@keishafortune7714]

Meal looks deeeelishhh....

[@albitully]

Thanks for the hygiene tour! I’m traveling out of a Tahoe and I’ve been figuring this stuff out too. For dishes I use a spray bottle with soapy water and paper towel (I try to find bamboo and recycled towels, but they aren’t always available). I might try your bucket method to reduce paper waste. How do you deal with bugs and mosquitos? I often skip cooking dinner because I don’t want bugs to get inside my car while I cook from the trunk, my setup is similar to yours. I love your content!

[@maxineoliver7404]

I'll catch up a bit later. in the meantime, Happy Juneteenth/Father's Day!🌺🥰

[@DawnWhite1210]

what about a yurt??

[@climbingdan]

Ooh, I wonder if you could mount your leveling platform to existing trees. Use the trees as pylons

[@lisaw1873]

I missed the name of the trail?

[@leyhaw6762]

also, love ur channel

[@shellsimon28]

👌 👍 peace😄💝📹😳

[@daniellemcnamee1565]

So it’s like a yurt?

[@leemckay7712]

What about a yurt

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

Too expensive!

[@hardlyred621]

Haha, seen....

[@danavila04]

Bahaha 🤣 I tried to triple like(❤️❤️❤️) when you started to popping it(twerking). Yaaasss Queen, get it!!! I was like oh girl, same 🤗 I would do the same.

[@derrick1964]

Your phone tells your story just as well as the other camera

[@beverlysmith6708]

Do you know hope to shoot a gun there are a lot of bears in the summer in Alaska and mosquitoes 😏😳😳

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

I’m excited for the bears! Not the mosquitos tho lol

[@beverlysmith6708]

@@a.j.2796 a charging bear (bear spray is not going to stop them maybe make them mad)

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

You should check out some videos. It does work and is statistically proven to work. Don’t worry too much!

[@tonimt1712]

I would like to see a shower set up video. Putting it up and taking it down.

[@shakorasharp179]

Are there bears Where You Are and do you have a weapon

[@douglas1071]

Great video. Thickest glutes ever. Thanks
