Old South Dog Boxes
These guys build the best dog boxes I’ve seen!
I was looking around for a company that made dog boxes that would fit in my Side by Side and couldn’t find anything.
I got in touch with Old South Dog Boxes and they are able to make custom builds!
They are building me a dog box that will fit exactly what I need.

Skito Saddle Pads
I was in the market for a new saddle pad after my old one wore out.
Agnes, my riding mule, has a bad back and it makes a big difference to have a good saddle pad.

Ellis Canvas Tents
I reached out to Ellis Canvas Tents because I was just not too happy with my sleep system. I had seen their products before and was really impressed with the "Cowboy Bedroll". They sent me one to try and can say that so far it is the best I have used for Cowboy Camping.
Soon I hope I can get one of their Canvas Tents

Memories is the only thing we can leave behind that holds its value. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏼

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

It got three dicks. and something. I don't want to touch it. Memories ARE the only thing...

[@stevevick9946]

Great video thanks for taking us down memory lane ! Safe travels

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Thanks for watching

[@toddunruh3998]

I like the looks of Clyde!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Thanks Todd .. I think he is going to work out

[@ApogeeJack]

Watched this in Hotel by Houston Medical Center after Hurricane Beryl knocked out the power. High light of my day, thank goodness for batteries and 5g phone.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Thanks .. that 5 G is sure nice

[@ApogeeJack]

@BrettVaughnB100 Living in Iowa now, in Houston for cancer treatment. Spent many years taking weekends in California's Anza Borrego. Never had a mule, would have been nice. Rode a mountain bicycle instead & your videos bring back fond memories of pretending to be a cowboy.

[@jackwright9102]

Being 73 love the old man sounds 😊

[@BrettVaughnB100]

They come natural lol Thanks

[@kathyjacques2688]

I loved Unbranded too n I wish I had all that youngster energy, they also did a lot of planning n I was impressed, losing a good horse or mule is a hard blow n could hear your loss in your voice

[@LawrenceHicks-w9v]

I just enjoyed the hell outta this vidio !! Thank you!!

[@debbiewilson6806]

Oh the memories so glad I did the things I had done but regret I didn't do more. Sucks to get too old to still go. Your videos make my day. Looks like you got two great mules.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Thank you .. I am going to try to make some more memories while I have time

[@johnhill1363]

My buddies and i did a pack trip like that through our national forest. Its been probably 20 years ago now, but i still get to relive the trip and i just told my neighbor about it a couple weeks ago. You are right about how it makes you feel alive waking up every day and travelling through new country. Great memories. Got a pair of pretty good mules i believe Brett. I like em.

[@garlandturner1642]

I had a disaster in camp at Diamond Creek where road forks south of Wall Lake in 2003 💥 Thankful to be alive 🙏✝️🇺🇸

[@philipmedlin8902]

I like Clyde. Perfect size and a great color. I believe you will be riding him more. I wish I had the will to do as you do. Good luck with Clyde. Maybe some day I'll start back to riding.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Better do it if you can .. we only have this one time .. I think? lol Thanks

[@ramblingheart6625]

Good morning to you

[@jerryransbarger8927]

September and October are really nice in the mountains. Lil tough in December. But that’s what separates the tough from average

[@patriotpreacher43]

Makes me long for my days in Wyoming years ago. Kind of like being homesick! Thanks for the video.

[@johngriffith610]

Awesome. Sure would’ve hated to see an animal roll down the rocks in that loose stuff. Had me on edge. Enjoyed every minute. Thanks for the ride. God Bless

[@BrettVaughnB100]

You bet .. yes it was kind of touch and go .. Thanks

[@penelopeabbott6749]

What an awesome trip I love living it thru you!! Thank you so much, Clyde did great !!

[@lonniebroyles5785]

Great video with your reference to your dad and his great adventures while riding. Then you covered one of your adventures. The monologue with video was great it was like we were in rhe adventure with you. Thanks for a job well done!

[@virginiajorgensen8614]

Thanks for sharing. That was a great trip through a beautiful area. I like to hear about gear. Clyde looks ok.

[@guitarmaker6119]

I didn't know that the other mule was Clyde when I suggested you name the new pup Clyde. I must have missed one of the videos lol. Clyde is a good looking mule. God bless. Onward and upward buddy

[@jeffwilcher3333]

What a great video .. man I enjoyed that one Brett .. I like ol Clyde ..he’s a good ern .. well,Onward and Upward, That is the Watchword !!

Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@paulsisco7595]

Thanks for taking us along with you, it was a good adventure amazing cliffs

[@warrenfromga9945]

Another wonderful video. I so enjoy your story telling and your videos. This is one of my favorites so far. I'm an old wannabe cowboy and would have loved to been able to do a long trail ride like you and your Friend did. Not sure I could handle the cold as my blood is too thin. As I get older I can appreciate your Dad enjoying his memories. I have a ton of them and I enjoy going down memory lane. Enjoy the time you have with your Dad, you may be surprised at how much you will miss him when he is gone. Thank you for sharing your days and your stories, maybe one day our trails will cross and we can share a nice campfire and a drink. I would really like that.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

That would be great .. glad you like the video .. and your right I sure will miss him .. Thank you .

[@eanderson1801]

Another great video. Thanks

[@BrettVaughnB100]

[@Juniordryglo]

[@libertyleather]

Great video keep making more... Love all your videos.

[@georgehenrich2753]

Yes a gear list sounds like a good video

[@tierratrails9554]

I never get tired of watching Unbranded!

[@stevevick9946]

That red freckle dog sure is pretty! I’m hoping to have dogs again soon. Miss it

[@robertnorth740]

You are so right about getting busy doing things. I'm the same age as you and recently retired. I have watched those two rides many times. I'm appreciate you taking the time on this video to explain your route. I've hiked up towards diamond peak, but never to the top. hiked up to reeds peak when I was young. Want to go around from the north second to the animas and back to North to Hermosa. I also loved the Jeremiah Johnson tune on the 2nd trip.

[@schadoffutt3202]

Yes sir! Would like to see that video.

[@beckyd.9737]

That brings back a memory here too. Started at the visitor center, small group packed in, went up and over into the East Fork. Stayed a couple nights then back out. Never camped before, first morning it was just getting light as the canyon wrens were waking up the world. Then I hear something big coming, it walked right up to the tent, sniffed the tent! My friend didn't even hear it! It went on, I get my nerve up to unzip that tent to peek square at a big brangus bulls butt. Thank God...thought it was a bear!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

lol I think I might of been more scared of a brangus bull then a bear lol Thanks

[@ericchilver9113]

20:40 yes please Bret I would be keen to hear what your mules pack in both hot and cold weather. I'm 70 next year , definitely born 100 years too late. But the creature comforts of present day , well some of present day comforts are welcome. Like an ice cold beer on a hot day..would appreciate more videos like this Bret, of your past trips..the freedom of these trips with pack mules I find extremely appealing 🇦🇺🇺🇸👍 34:25 be great watching your new adventures too Bret👍

[@daledurham7353]

Great video! I like the idea of discussing what you take on a trip and then the critique when you return... Keep up the good work! Love your videos!

[@alfonsocasillas7290]

Yes, I would like a video on your gear reviews

[@Gfthce3426]

Love the videos ❤

[@jclikespam7791]

Great 7 day adventure and looks like Clyde will be fine.

[@AxelMillerOutDoors]

I will be on tonight and I have some pictures

[@jackwright9102]

Good for him 😊

[@gunslinger9560]

Awesome life,

[@LongdistanceRider22]

Beautiful Ride …..

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I like your name .. you ride horses or mules or something else ? Thanks

[@LongdistanceRider22]

@@BrettVaughnB100 Hi Brett..I am a Horse Trail Rider. These days I Ride Victory Motorcycle… would love to trail ride ❤️

[@BillStaton-sm4nw]

It would be a good video about what was not needed much, and what was used, or made a trip better.Along with some video of when where,and why.This was one of the best I've seen of your channel. But I have only been watching for about 2 years.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Thank you ... some of my old ones are kinda hard to watch .. I hope I have got better

[@jerrymays5743]

Yes I would like to see the gear you pack

[@doubleduty1703]

Loved it So many questions like unbranded doc was awesome and your video adventure was amazing. The pack animals carry everything and I thought about old western years and what they brought. I doubt cowboys would just travel with dry beans and jerky and a pot and a wool blanket… Would you ever consider doing an overnight with just cowboy gear .. men were tougher back then lol Because there wasn’t any luxury . Long travels were by wagon before trains. Makes a guy wonder . Thanks for sharing.

[@Nilewhite411]

Enjoyed the video?, well does a bear sheet in the woods, heck yeah they do, absolutely loved the video!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Yes they do lol Thanks

[@tworah]

Thanks for sharing, I love your videos, you are getting better and better at production. big time producer now lol

[@BrettVaughnB100]

lol I'm trying to get better .. it is hard for an old man like me .. Thank you very much!

[@firstinlastout8324]

Unbranded is an awesome documentary. Where the one horse died was right in my hunting unit

[@btgoble]

Hey i'd love to see what and how you pack, I don't pack but still love to see it. You got yourself sorted now with those mules I recon. Great vid of your trip too. Tracey (Australia), Clever Clyde!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Clever Clyde .. I like that thanks!!

[@GMConway.jcranch]

That's a great idea making that video about what you need to take and what you left behind what you thought you needed but never used that would be a cool video thank you for sharing i enjoy your adventures

[@Muleshoe-e-ranch]

I grew up exploring that Black Ranch over by North Seco south of Hermosa. Still one of my favorite places in the world.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I spent a lot of time over there ... I lived on North Percha for a few years .. Thanks

Necessities.....I did a lot of solo white-water camping, canoe trips. 3 to 5 days. I did the Allagash, river only from the Churchill bridge to the St. John River, 3 relaxing days if it's not tourist season. Got to Allagash falls where you better portage, uphill a way then downhill a way, a little rough going. I could portage my canoe and 3 day supplies in one trip. I'm sitting at the bottom of the falls watching the salmon try to jump the falls when 4 canoes came over the portage. They dropped the canoes and headed back for supplies. On their 4th trip they were huffing and puffing. I said, "you find out necessities real quick out here don't you" I can't post the reply.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

lol I bet .. next time they probably did better .. Thanks

[@garyb4929]

Great revisiting old rides, good tales. Good ride on Clyde, least didn't have pick yourself uo off dirt,lol. An occasional episode of describing what your packing & how; would be interesting. Great episode, Thanks.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I will try soon .. not real good at gear videos .. Thanks

[@kennybolt8329]

Yeah I want to see all your equipment. I've always wanted to do some of that but coming up on 66 might be a little late to start but I can just go along with you. Thanks❤

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Your always welcome to come a long .. Thank you

[@garywilliamson5535]

I think it is a good idea to show us what you pack for a trip. Love your vids. Been backpacking into the mountains around Pagosa Springs, CO but it has been years since doing that.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I will soon .. Thanks

That is a good movie going across the central states to Canada
