Car Camping in a Heat Wave in Wildfire Country

[@amyh1045]

I bought a little rechargeable fan at Walmart. It’s on a bendy tripod base, so you can set it up many ways. I feel like having a little breeze helps so much when it’s hot. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!

[@Rod1armysdad]

You sprayed it and then stomped it! That was pure emotion.😮

[@whoflungdung1046]

I love the fact that you're no camping expert and still learning the hard way.

[@BrackLuxury]

It's so great I really want to go like that

You are a brave woman. I’d check the weather before going anywhere, it can make or break a trip. If you can’t get good sleep, it’s miserable. Learned that from experience.

[@thomasbridenstine5562]

I really enjoy your channel. Matt's off road recovery, one of my favorites. I have stopped by their shop and got a t-shirt this summer. Great people. I admire your strength and the fact you are doing something most only dream of. Hang in there and stay safe.

[@opiealvin]

Alot of people hate the cold. I hate the heat. The heat makes everything miserable. I feel your pain. Montana and Wyoming will likely become your two new favorite states. Safe travels, Sydnie. I admire your perserverance.

[@michaelbierman699]

I make this suggestion often: Tiki torches with citronella oil absolutely repel several types of insects. I have used them for 20+ years. The torches, and the Citronella oil, are both available at Walmart (or similar stores) for a fair price, and worth trying. Plus they add ambience. Personally, I NEVER camp with out them, and I notice each time how my camp is minimal of insects. You will need to find a way to stake down the torches, or tie them to something, so they stay erect.

[@jbusley]

I heat lemon, peppermint, eucalyptus, and or citronella oils in a diffuser in my van. Bugs won’t come in.

[@michaelbierman699]

@@jbusley That's a lot of work. I just light a torch, and the job is done, they stay away from camp.

Sydnie you're exquisitely adorable and you are kicking ass! You will be just fine out there, you're doing great. We all learn new things everyday so be daunted, just keep flowing the way you are and you will succeed! I have no doubt about that. Happy trails😊

[@barythompson4781]

Sleeping in a stinky car for a night is still better than having to get up to go to an 8-5 prison 😉. Matt’s off-road recovery is one of the best!! Hope you keep on embracing life. Love your channel!

[@barythompson4781]

BTW, love the spaghetti western type music

[@nature10879]

Its probably someone else who run over that squirrel sydnie. Speaking of the heat, I was in phoenix and even hiked, that was no joke. Extremely hot like an oven but dry heat. I smelled some wild fires/smoke around Payson Az which is about an hr away from phoenix metro. The sky looked smokey.

[@fredricjulien8738]

The heat, the mice, the bees. You've learned to deal with all three. Glad you didn't need to deal with any 🔥 wildfires. Sounds like you had a close call near the North Cascades. Stay hydrated in that heat (chugging water from the gallon jug) will help you tolerate the dryness. Stay alert for the bears 🐻 the bugs 🪲 and the mice. 🐭

[@RicardoRoams]

In some ways escaping the heat can be more challenging than dealing with the cold. At least with the cold you can bundle up. If you're headed toward Glacier National Park in Montana you will get some heat relief. And Glacier is one of the nation's most beautiful National Parks. But they do have Grizzly Bears so it's good you bought bear spray. Continued safe travels.

[@CanadianCampPurr]

Cost CAA $3300 to fix my truck's wiring because of rodents in my parking lot. Honda sells tape that can be wrapped around cheaply made soy bean harnesses made in all vehicles last 10 years. Critter Ridder is the product i've used, mechanic told me to buy some hot chili peppers crush them up into bits add them to spray bottle, add water & spray it all over you wheel wells & plastic parts under your hood. Good luck with your camping.

[@russgilbertson8689]

I think soaking a t-shirt in creek water and wrap it around your head, you may have to do it often. Be alert for smoke in your area. you could check a ranger station too. Slept when you can , The sandwich is not a bad idea, a slice of tomato and little lettuce and it would really be awesome. I hope the rest of your trip goes better..

[@Eddiesleaf]

Beautiful

[@charleysson9459]

Love you Sydnie and the sound of your beautiful voice!! :)

[@tuckerandi]

Glad you found the squirrel it definitely validated you for the sounds you heard lol. Then the guys thinks he killed it and throws away the evidence in the woods. Glad you got a nap after. Those are hot 🔥 temperatures for car camping for sure hard to cool down for sure. Bear spray definitely a good idea when you're alone in the woods , even with a group I guess. Spray it Stomp it Definitely making sure its done lol. Ive never heard of rodent spray I may have a use for that, gotta look it up. Cucumber sandwich thats different might have to try that too lol. Lets hope you have no more top three memorable days. Hope you have an awesome week

[@gonearoundthebendPNW]

You have had a rough couple weeks! Cooler on the coast this time of year. 70 here in the San Juan islands.

[@NefariaAdventures]

The San Juans are beautiful!

[@BoxCarRacer406]

The hot weather car camping struggle is real. I suggest moving to western Washington. Snoqualmie area has been around a high of 70-75 degrees.

[@stevenlasalle8313]

Hell in Texas if we see 98° getting close to August, we consider that a cold front 😂🤣😂

[@jasonsumma1530]

The extreme heat affects everyone would it be on two legs (us) or four legs or wings. I wonder if the creatures were trying to find a cooler spot to be in. Hopefully you will be able to find a place that is cooler to stay at. Those heat domes\hi pressure ridges can get nasty. You are probably already at your new location but one area I would like to see is the beginning of the Missouri River. If I understand correctly, three rivers up in Montana merge to eventually create the Missouri.

[@trentcarbino921]

Hang in there. Righteous times ahead as the weather cools down

[@ChrisAnglin-d8f]

Staying hydrated a must I find using a mist from a spray bottles helps to cool me off

[@drue6360]

Ayyyyyyye when you come thru Montana look me up, we off-road explore for many days at a time. Going into abandoned mines, go behind gates, get into some dicey situations. We don’t do KZbin’s or anything but you’re welcome to join.

[@Incaensio]

If you ever come to the Smoky mountains, you can stay with us in Knoxville

[@ivan11cast]

That heat is insane 🥵, and we are having a great 73 degrees here in Texas 😍

[@markj10]

Suggestion to cool off would be to move over to Olympic Peninsula

[@connielove3370]

High fire danger is a warning that the area is very dry, most if not all National Forests in the cascades are like that during the summer.

[@adoll33]

What brand of camping chair are you using? It looks super comfortable...

[@jeremykisling8292]

Hey Sydney Do you drink coffee? Coffee grounds burnt by a lighter or flame is a great way to keep flys and mosquitos away

[@doyleuboldi9049]

Best part of the video is when you sprayed the bug, then you stepped on it !!! Hilarious.

[@jbusley]

70’s in my van at the beaches in SoCal. I can’t do 100. Can’t eat. Can’t sleep. Head south. 😉

[@jon-yj5jg]

thanks for posting beautiful

[@guaporeturns9472]

Good you got rid of one of those awful gray diggers. Those things suck. It’s a type of ground squirrel.

[@paulstewart3298]

We always remove the safety pin of the bear mace when we're carrying it in a side holster in bear country, so we can fire it with one hand without messing around with a safety device before deploying. I'm by no means an expert BTW. Anyway, have fun out there 🤓

[@NefariaAdventures]

She has bear spray. She probably can’t legally carry in WA since she isn’t a resident. Although I personally carry both, if she is in a bad situation, it will be less of a legal nightmare for her if she uses the spray rather than lethal action (unless she has no other choice).
