Boondocking In Eastern Washington @ Hog Lake

Hog Lake Coordinates: 47.3775, -117.8131
Welcome to Eastern Washington.... BEAUTIFUL! We are asked quite often which state is our favorite? Honestly, we can’t answer this question. Every state we visit is BEAUTIFUL in its own way.....it is so hard to compare. This is one of my favorite things about van-life!
Hog Lake is a PERFECT example.... when you arrive you might not think it’s that Beautiful.....but just take a few minutes for the beauty to sink it.....it’s there!!!

Beautiful scenery... God did an amazing thing when he created this earth. Have a blessed day.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Yes we agree!!!

[@preskma]

One thing I love about your channel, and also makes you guys unique among vanlife couples, is that you often split up and do your own thing. This provides two things for the viewers: a different perspective on things, and double the activities/content. Win win! Very glad to see you carry radios when you do this. I've been wondering about that!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I thinks this comes from being married for 27 years. Although I do not hike or stray to far when Dave is not by my side!! ESPECIALLY IN BEAR COUNTRY. I do like having our two-way radios. Appreciate you watching and commenting!!!! carrie

[@spellmadam2947]

Right on the outskirts of the scab lands created by the Great Missoula flood 13k to 15k years ago. Glacier dam erupted during the last ice age. It carved out much of eastern WA to the Columbia River gorge. Beautiful area You're not far from us in the N Idaho Panhandle area. We had a cool June with nice rain. The wild flowers have been grand. Welcome to the PNW.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We are loving the late season 💐 🌸 🌺! We probably have been pretty close to your neck of the woods lately. We have family near Sand Point.😀 I have fun looking and the areas we are in and guessing how they have been shaped over time.

[@1152jerry]

You were only 10 miles from two of the best kayaking lakes in Eastern Washington. I wish I had known you were there I would have brought some kayaks and taken you out. Maybe next time.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

That sounds awesome Jerry! We hope to catch you on the next time through.😀

[@cheriwaller7598]

Loved the wildflowers!

[@doncolincreative]

Nicely done video. The drone shots and nature details tell the story so eloquently. Added to our list. Thank You.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Glad you enjoyed it! It was such a contrast coming from Mt Adams where EVERYTHING was green to this dry brittle landscape. Equally as beautiful in different ways.The skies & Clouds were AMAZING the entire time we were there.......so relaxing! thanks for watching and commenting.

[@nancyrosanelli8459]

That intro music reminded me of the "the stand" by Steven king. I love it. That place is beautiful 😍.

If you can find such a secluded spot to camp in the middle of summer...during a pandemic, that is pretty amazing. You really captured the beauty of this spot with your amazing photography. Thank you for sharing with us. Always great information in your videos.

[@dickspade7045]

Thanks for taking me along. I like your outlook, filming speed &skill & narration.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you Dick. We do one of these types of videos every Sunday. We show case the areas we stay and hope you get a chance to explore a few of them.

[@lynneb6510]

Excellent photography and stunning drone footage. Another hit out of the park!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

this one was too easy! it was just beautiful!!

[@anybodyoutthere3208]

WOW That drone work going up the gorge of mini waterfalls was AMAZING! The music was PERFECT that went along with that scene What an amazing channel. Thanks so much as always~

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Glad you enjoyed it!! Dave is really enjoying flying his drone and he is becoming a pro! So glad you enjoyed the music, I try to pick music to match how I felt at each location. We really appreciate such amazing comments....thank you!!

[@jimwisdom6638]

We are fellow boondockers and we love your images. You are very relatable and we like the way you present yourselves. We are teardrop/tent campers and have a big dog that we also love very much. Thanks. We will be looking for some of these spots you have found in our travels thru the NW as soon as we get our second COVID shots.

[@lyndasmith6801]

Wow, what a beautiful area! I can understand why you would enjoy the wide open space! Looked like a great area to relax in. Love Washington state. Roodle.at.the end, funny dog! Thanks for sharing this beautiful area!!!! Xx

Yes it was! Its funny....we both love trees but this wide open view was just incredible!! Thanks for watching and commenting. We always enjoy seeing your name pop up!! carrie

Beautiful screnery and drone footage..I've been near that area many times while team OTR trucking with my late husband..Thank you for the memories and video..Have a blessed day..

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

That's awesome...glad to take you on a trip down memory lane!! This is one the biggest reasons we are doing videos....so we can go back and visit any time we like!

[@joycemarino9800]

Absolutely brilliant photography! We're heading to Leavenworth, Washington in a couple of days so this is a timely video for us!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Have fun! We have yet to see Leavenworth. We heard it is AMAZING at Christmas time but I dont think the will be doing much this year. Let us know if you find any amazing boondocking near there.

[@dustyfeller]

Fantastic video guys! I’ve never been there and now I definitely want to visit. Amazed you got Roodle to let you go in front, Carrie. He ain’t afraid a no snakes.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Roodle seems fearless at times! Except for a loud noice in a think forest will make him jump every time. 😜We are about to go backpacking in Wyoming for a week! I can’t wait to get the drone up and share. Take good care😀

[@andreavale1184]

Loved watching Carrie work her camera skills! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 Nice hat, Dave! Roodle greeting Carrie after her solo hike like she had been gone a week!😄 stay safe y’all 😊 🚐

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

😂 Roodle is always so happy to see Carrie even after just a few minutes. 😀 I hope not to lose this hat 😜

[@akaTheGirls]

Awesome video! We live 30 minutes west of Hog Lake - wish we knew you were here! You could have stopped by for a hot shower and laundry! 😁

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you for the invite! We probably would have taken you up on a hot shower. We rarely turn those down. Very kind. 😅

[@akaTheGirls]

one adVANture at a time We are going to be full-time van lifers ourselves next year. We will be hiking the Appalachian Trail first then moving into our van when we are done with that. Hope to run into you in our travels.

[@discoveringlockenest8420]

Wow the reflections of the clouds on the lake were incredible! Roodle ain’t scared of falling is he? Scared me when he got close to that drop off! Awesome video thanks for sharing! 🤙

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We also love the cloud reflection in the lake! Roodle has no fear! ...unless he hears a loud noise in the woods. He will tuck tail and run the other way. 😜

[@cesalt2408]

Such unusual topography with an open sky! This was a real treat for me. So cool!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you, Cesalt! We had the biggest puffiest clouds ☁️ It’s so much fun to do a time lapse and just sit and watch them move across the sky.😀

[@adamrenissance3322]

Carrie, try a polizer filter on your camera especially for shot between 10:AM and 4:PM. It will only cost you 1 step of ISO, but the colors will really pop in your landscape photography. You obviously have some skills. But we would like to see the beautiful colors you experience.

[@jimgbf]

This video is the one that got me to become a Patrieon! Thanks for the videos!!

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank you very much Jim! You made our day by helping and giving us hope that this channel might someday support our advanture full time. We are very thankful and excited to have you a board.😀😀😀

[@Scrambler85]

18 hours the video has been up as of 23:30 hrs Sunday night and 888 views and 43 comments. Your subscription numbers are increasing. If more people would leave comments KZbin would promote your videos more. Another great video and it's a part of Washington state that doesn't get much attention. Lots of great scenery and drone footage. Always a thumbs up and appreciation for what you do. 👍👍👍

Hi John. Have you seen many rattle snake 🐍 while doing trail maintenance in this area?

[@johnkreuziger155]

@@oneadVANtureatatime I have not. Did a lot of work last year at FishTrap lake and the snakes were pretty quiet. Hiking the area in fall and early spring is amazing as you noted in your video. Keep up the good work and safe travels.

That is a polarizer filter. I used Tiffen from B&H Photo.

Rattle snakes ohh noo but nice place stay safe.

That's a great drone shot, flying up the rock steps as the creek heads down to the lake.

Wasnt that amazing! Dave did such a good job coming off the lake and making a super smooth continuous turn up the waterfall....AMAZING!!!

The Promaster has been very good to us. In 72,000 miles we have been to the shop twice for minor repairs. We love it and are very happy with our choice. 😀

We have 2-way radios too. What is the max distance on your radios? How do you charge them? Lou & Angie

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Our radios are good for about 2 miles even though they say they will go to about 5 . They do charge USB which works good for us. 😀

Thanks 👍 Dont worry....I dont stray to far without Dave.

[@dustyfeller]

I’ll bet a lot of viewers will say that one thing they enjoy about your videos is that they feel as though the video was somehow tailored personally for them.

[@fairrider3346]

LOL, I POSTED THE RATTLESNAKE COMMENT BEFORE YOU BROUGHT IT UP AT THE END. SOME OF THE ROCKY AREAS ARE JUST WHAT RATTLESNAKES LIKE FOR WINTER HYBERNATION.

[@SemiRetiredBob]

In the description you mention the question, 'what's your favorite state.' I can answer for you. Given how many times in that first year you said, 'this is our favorite place ever' I think it's safe to say your favorite state, area or campsite ever is the one you are in when asked the question. Have a great week you 3.
