Is this MY FAVORITE PLACE ON EARTH? | SOLO TRUCK CAMPER LIFE

[@mobiltec]

I've spent most of my adult life playing in the area. I've lived and worked in BIshop, Flown my hang glider HIGH over Mt Whitney and fished every creek, stream and lake. I've floated and fished the Owens River and used to own 3 silver claims just north of Lone Pine. I even had a cabin on the claims. Now I live in Northern Nevada because I just could not handle the politics in CA any longer. But I still go back to play every year.

[@Deanna52ish]

Oh how fun Catherine! You're so good about cooking for yourself, but every once in a while we need to treat ourselves. I love the history of the places you go. Thank you for taking us to the Alabama Hills and Sierra's again. I never tire of them. Also, thank you for sharing the resources and education tools you're connected to. I love that your channel is family friendly. I always know that I won't be surprised with anything vulgar and insulting...very rare these days, especially on KZbin. Oh man that sandwich looked good. I think I'll go make one and sit outside in my backyard here in Phoenix, AZ. Thank you for your beautiful content Catherine.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Deanna! ❤️

[@paulfroud3920]

Awesome scenery, Gee, a skilled photographer AND you can sing too!?!? Who knew🤠??? Safe travels Cat...

[@evermar1]

Cat, going up 395 again with you made my day. I have gone up the same roads however you were able to capture the essence of the eastern Sierras and its magnificent vistas. Again, you capture the sights and SOUNDS better than anyone.

[@randymuro9486]

Hi Catherin, If you're experiencing head aches at high elevations don't exert yourself too much. If your have breathing problems don't rest but get down to lower elevations to oxygenate yourself. If you don't you could die from it. Another option is to carry an oxygen bottle with you. If you go to a welding supply shop you can get breathable oxygen from them since they supply hospitals. Be careful up there. Also at higher elevations it's best to adapt to it first for a week before you exert yourself. Have a great time.

[@michellebentz3576]

Thank you for bringing some peace to this gal stuck on the western side 😄 the sense of calm is visible and hard to leave. As always, looking forward to your next view!.

[@lailan8341]

My Sunday morning starts with a cup of coffee & your video. It’s a perfect start to a beautiful day. Those mountains were magical! Thank you for your family friendly channel! We appreciate it! 🙏

[@michaelcapeless3268]

You're a lucky kid, Catherine -- what a great life! Thanks again.

[@FirstSuiGeneris]

[@sharondavis8003]

Love the stillness & serenity of the winter months in the mountains 🏔. ❤️👍🏻

[@JustMike2]

We all need a little beauty and serenity right about now - thanks for helping bring it into our world

[@Driver_Bob]

Good morning Cat. Thank you for sharing your latest adventure with us. I can’t think of a better way to start off my Sunday morning. Wishing you safe travels in whatever direction you go.

[@bethseptember8]

Dear "Cat G" Your video brought back such wonderful memories! I lived in Independence back in late 70's with my boyfriend/husband to be. I worked at the Lone Pine Schats bakery, lasted one dinner shift at The Merry Go Round steak house., finally settled as a CNA at the local nursing home or sanatorium. I was a volunteer EMT also in Independence. That started my journey to being a registered Nurse, which was why we moved away. The area had no college for my goal. After 33 years as a Frontline HCW, ER/Trauma/ICU, I retired in 12/2020. This is my favorite video! So many of my favorite hikes/running trails are your camp grounds, too Thank you for sharing the beauty of Eastern Sierras! I have taken my truck camper, 1997 Lance Squire 3000, my flat towed Jeep Rubicon, and camped at Lone Pine RV park. Wish I could of afforded a 4x4 Dodge DRW, but my budget was stretched as I had just recovered from ovarian cancer. I have an 05 Dodge DRW CREW CAB 2X6 Cancer taught me what you already know. Live everyday with joy and abundance Again, this is MY favorite place. You did a great job.

[@wvoutdoorsman5326]

We are so excited!!! We are headed that way the 6th of May. We’re going to Yosemite, Kings Canyon, Sequoia and Death Valley. Beautiful country out there. I can’t wait to see it.

[@rocksforever66]

Me too have a safe trip!

[@wvoutdoorsman5326]

You as well!!! If gas prices don’t keep us at the airport 😱

[@boonedog1457]

Journey well! You live a beautiful life.

[@wallflowerjr]

You are so inspiring, I'm going to the Grand Canyon next Thursday with Grand son and son, thanks to you.

[@jamesbowden1270]

My wife and I have been enjoying your videos for sometime now . We were both blown away from the quality of the videos from this episode and feel that they are perhaps the most impressive videos that we have seen to date. The quality coming through our 4k tv is outstanding. We just wanted to let you know. Keep up the great work.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you both so much! I appreciate the kind feedback.

[@sonyalargo6439]

Gm Catherine, be safe.. enjoy your day...also hello from beautiful New Mexico 🐎

[@SageWords2027]

Thank you! This was exactly what my spirit needed to refresh from the current news cycle. I’m so grateful for your content, kindness, and generosity of spirit. You are helping inspire others to preserve nature by introducing spots and making the process of getting out there seem accessible.

[@charleshagman5025]

Catherine, your photography is the best! I look forward to each weeks posting.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you 🙏

[@janethall7163]

I just love your free spirit. You are such an inspiration to women to seek out their adventures. I love your calmness.

[@joyce46jul]

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Jill! ❤️

[@kennethmoore5629]

Another wonderful video. Loved the campsites (little piece of heaven on earth). Enjoyed the solitude of your favorite area. Thanks for sharing.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thanks so much Ken.

[@kennethmoore5629]

Sautéd Brussels sprouts are my favorite "green stuff" to see on a plate! YUMMY 🤤

[@MARKCANEER]

It's easy to see why the eastern Sierras might be your favorite place. Beautiful area. Lots of little towns to resupply, camping spots nearby. Thank You for taking me along. You keep posting And I'll keep watching.🙏👍😎

[@dlnipper]

dear Kat, I love all your adventures. your radiant soul shines brilliantly.;-D

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

🙏❤️🙏

[@dandtintennessee7675]

Always look forward to your videos to see what beautiful place you're staying. The music and camera work is amazing as always and the promotion flowed beautifully like a natural part of the video.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you very much!

[@metal4x4]

Love those small towns and the museum was cool. Another place added to the list of places to visit. I am going to need a bigger notebook. Thank you for another great video.

[@maryhight6030]

Yes, the museum was definitely cool. I'm adding also to my list. 👍

[@kimsmith6974]

Thank you for the peace and serenity you gave me today. Thank you for bringing calmness to my life.

[@InSurrealtime]

From my first trip up 395 in 1989 I was instantly hooked on the East side.

[@JohnSmith-ef2sp]

Your videos allow me to enjoy this beautiful country. Thank you.

[@RuthsCarpeDiem]

Hi lovely video from you. It's amazing mountains. I love it❤🙋‍♀️💞🙏

[@jinlowe1953]

Your photos and videography takes my breath away.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Jinnie.

[@jolenecreech7648]

I love the Eastern Sierras. They also put my soul at peace. Thank you 😊

[@scottphillipy9831]

Absolutely beautiful scenery, you have "that" eye. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us and providing notes for my bucket list.

[@Niallisababe1]

One thing I love about your videos is that you give us as much information about the campgrounds you stay at. You're such an amazing woman. Keep finding your peaceful spots and keep smiling 😃

[@robynidyllwild6755]

Hi Catherine! I lived in Inyokern for 16 years before moving into Ridgcrest. I wish I could show you the picture that hangs in my living room. When my husband and I moved to Idyllwild full time we wanted to take a piece of the Eastern Sierra with us. I know you would love the photo. We got tired of the hot summers, Bone chilling winters and of course the “W” you never actually say the word or it will blow and blow 😉. We do miss the sunrises and sunsets they are spectacular!

[@steventhaw3765]

The California Miwok named the Sierra "Kayopha"-- the sky and the peaks that touch it!

[@jaypino2642]

Beautiful scenery

[@jennyfulcher8035]

The snow-capped Sierras are absolutely gorgeous! As always, you really captured its breathtaking beauty. No wonder it's one of your favorite places to visit. Thanks for the visit to the museum which showed all of the movies, cameras, costumes, cars, and wagons on many a Western adventure movie. Jenny

[@stevenbaxter5601]

Yes, Catherine, I am happy that you are out there doing all the work. So, we may enjoy the awesome content that you share with us. As always, be safe. Thank you!

[@bakokat6982]

Been to Shatz Bakery sooo many times, in,our family we like to joke and say” but did ya have the bread?” Best bread in California . I love all their delicious pastries and goodies. Make my sweet tooth happy!

[@desertwaters_808]

We are so similar in that, aside from a handful of very important ppl, we prioritize the call of the land in our lives. I feel so grateful to realize and accept this, and also to be able to heed the call...! Even though less than 2 years ago I was planning on building a house, now instead I'm focused on getting an adventure vehicle set up (which has been in my heart for a long time). Thanks for the inspo, as always! 🤍

[@chrispemberton7000]

Earth our amazing home. Thank you for showing her to us.

[@jules9628]

Just stunning as always. I wondered if you ever wish you had someone with you to share seeing all the beauty that you experience, but Im sure it would absolutely have to be some one who was a perfect “match”, , perfect friend, otherwise it would be a strain and not as pleasant for sure. I often find myself almost looking right or left as if to say-Do you SEE this? Be blessed & thank you for sharing the magnificent beauty.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

You're right. It would have to be someone who enhances the experience. :) Thank you Jules.

[@wanderwomen8440]

I need to set up a playlist of just your videos. They are always so calming and inspirational!

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

🙏❤️🙏

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

... Cannot add what hasn't been said multiple times except ,, Thank You Catherine ...... Love the rugged ranges and museums whenever they're on the path .... Stay Safe and God Bless ....

[@williampalmquist6710]

What a great video! We've been traveling up 395 for over 50 years and never get tired of it's magic. We were so glad to see it again with you because our rig is waiting for some maintenance before we can go again. With the cost of traveling skyrocketing we appreciate your efforts all that much more. Be safe out there and see you on the next one!! XO

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

We had a great time and great meal outdoors. :)

[@daveschlom4033]

Mt. Tom and the Tungsten Hills. As a child, I spent some of my greatest times in Bishop and at the Rocking K Ranch that my cousin owned. That's magic land Catherine!

[@joefields489]

Thanks for the memories. It was around the time that Walter Egan was singing "Magnet and Steel" that my Pappy introduced us city boys to wilderness backpacking in the Sierras. Such beautiful vistas you capture magnificently on video. GOD bless you and protect you..✌😎.

[@marksmith1143]

I spent a summer packing mules at Noth lake in the 90's. Always good to see that country again. Thanks!

[@RalfSW]

Hi Cat, as ever beautiful pictures. I was in Lone Pine in 1995! But the only thing I remember was that I bought a dash mat for my Nissan Pickup. With this dash mat I was the king in Germany!!! Many Regards! Your German friend, Ralf

[@thebeartoothflyfisher]

Home......I spent my high school years in Bishop....thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Woke up every morning to see Mt. Tom, Basin Mtn, and Mt Humphreys to the west. I live in Great Falls, MT and hike/fish the high country here and in WY, but I still miss hiking and fishing in my native Sierras......

[@ericinnc]

Nice rendition of a great song! So much natural beauty in this country. Thanks again for sharing!

[@eirikolesen48]

The sierras are truly a wonderful place, I found heaven on earth here. Love your videos and I’m super jelly of your life style, living the dream…

[@susee69]

I'm heading that way in the next couple of weeks. Doing some camping in the Alabama Hills. Anyway, the last time I was there, I had my 10 month-old Jack Russell Terrier with me. I stopped at that same restaurant, Mt. Whitney, and asked if it was cool for me to sit outside with Amigo. The temp was around 100, but I live in Phoenix, so that's a kind of nice day, dontchaknow. Well, the waitress would have none of THAT!!! She said, "Don't be silly! You can sit out here, but he can come in!", and laughed and laughed, and then led us in. Threw in a chicken finger for m'boy, too. Definitely having some grub there before I pitch my camp! ---- Love your vids. Pleasing views and vistas, and you're easy on the eyes, as well. Muchas Gracias, Señora Nómada.

[@richardnatividad2962]

Thank you for another great video Catherine . I too have many fond memories in my teen years backpacking out of that wonderful area,I'll even spend the night on my Whitney once and that was quite the experience I must say ! I can see this magical area brings lots of Beauty into you're world.. like you mentioned you were very much at ease and relaxed in that familiar comfortable Eastern Sierra setting.

[@ralphhattenburg1744]

Catherine....just subscribed a few months ago and love your videos. I've been watching RV You tube channels since 2008(when there were darned few)and it's such a pleasure to experience your wonderfully edited videos. We all should spend more time "just listening to the wind blow." Take care and safe travels.

[@judyrobinson9556]

It was indeed a beautiful sunset, with the orange & blue hues & the last rays of sunshine hitting the tops of the mountains. Those sauteed brussels sprouts looked good I'll have to try that.

[@peggynulsen1365]

This part of North America is among the most beautiful geographically on our continent. Sunrise on the Sierra Nevada Mtns is breathtaking, few other places can match it. You obviously know this area well. Your photography shows great understanding of best lighting, time of day, etc. Top flight dear, love it. See you next week. Safe journey.

[@MrfiX725]

[@robhertle4110]

Good morning Catherine. Photography is top notch as always and filmography on point. Meat market? LOL!!! Thanks for posting. Always a pleasure.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

😂😂 Thank you!

[@markbeaver5010]

Thanks Catherine for the great video, the Eastern Sierras is one of my very favorite places on Earth. We used to go up to June Lake every year for the opening of Trout season and I've backpacked all over the John Muir trail growing up, so many great memories. I always stop in Bishop on my way back to California and pick up a few loafs of Shatz bakery bread for my Mom. Also I love Brussel sprouts, sauté in EVOO / butter and sprinkle parmesan cheese is my favorite. Have a great day!!!

[@giannigiglio5331]

Beautiful country scenery !!!!! thank you Catherine

[@justexperience7708]

Yes, I enjoyed it. My first and only time in the Alabama hills was last year and I too loved it, even with all the wildfire smoke. Very Majestic. I regret not going into the museum, so thanks for that footage. The ad in the video was not bad at all. Looking forward to next episode. Good shout out to Walter Egan "magnet and steel" I'm 54, so I definitely remember that song. Stay beautiful, happy trails 👣

[@kw2764]

Must be watched on Full Screen. Those mountains sure are calling to me! Thanks again. WOW 😊

[@OverlandGeneration]

WOW! I watched about 20 videos before I found EXACTLY what I wanted. THIS! Great Video! This is how it should be done! I love 395!

[@brads.3674]

When the pass opens, I think I may have to venture over to the east side. Thanks for the inspiration. Stay warm and dry.

[@edkutschke814]

I always feel my blood pressure lower and all the BS of the week wash away on these Sunday adventures. There is definitely something magical about the Sierras. Always enjoy when you take us there. Be safe!

[@ramblinsteven2554]

Gorgeous as always. I’m on the road as well and plan to do California, Oregon and Washington next year. I’m currently healing a bad back/leg and I haven’t been on the trails in about 3 weeks and it’s killing me!

[@jonlebeau1963]

I grew up as a kid living in Rancho Cucamonga going to the eastern sierra every summer hiking and fishing I still love it.

[@toddeftsadams5909]

WOW Cat, Those mountains are awesome. I have always wanted to get on top of Mt Whitney. Might need to plan a hiking/prospecting trip soon.
