I’ve had four 4X4s. My first two, a Jeep and a Chevy Blazer, I was able to hose down the interiors. And I did some serious muddying. My Toyota 4Runner, though capable of some serious off roading, shall remain a pavement princess. Haha

[@LauraGarcia-ub9xp]

You could make ground taco meat at home bring it on your trip and just warm it up and make walking tacos with the Fritos, some cheese, lettuce, tomato’s, jalapeños, sour cream they’d be delicious! Also you can do a block of cream cheese and can of no bean hormel chili warm it up together and that makes an awesome Frito dip also the dip is a good topping on hot dogs! Frito dip and hot dogs sound like an excellent meal on one of your next adventures!😊

Beautiful sunrise!!!! I am sure it was prettier in person!!!

[@CrazyQuady]

It was!

[@larrymaxwell5535]

You need to carry a wire brush with you if you intend to cook off the grill, they're great for cleaning grates! Helps get most of the possum, coyote, wolf or dog urine off them! 😁 Of course the fire helps to sanitize it too!

Beautiful sun sets and sun rise Quady Thanks for sharing 👍

[@malcolmneal3857]

Great video. Thee frito pie looked delicious. Keep the broken gear in case you can’t retrieve them and it won’t be a big lose. Have a great week.

[@thoughtzbytreee]

Hot sauce on chips is a good snack. Just sprinkle some right in the bag of chips and shake it up. You will fly through those 30 bags in no time.

[@jordanransom3022]

2:15 very polite of you to go back for them ❤ & not litter 😊 11:35 I’d keep what you have via those thingy’s …. I say that having AAA … I guess off road excursions are a different matter for AAA 😄 - might try a metal set next time if they exist 😉 12:19 I think that’s so cool 😮 thee electrical outlet port on the side of your truck there… I’m in a 2001….cars are just so out there these days

[@marcomcdowell8861]

🤣I wonder what the car wash owner thought when they saw a half-ton of mud in the drain 🤣

[@shanewitty1309]

Commenting again lol - get a good set of wool base layers - long johns and top.. doesnt matter if you sweat as you will be warm and dry. It's worth it.

[@chetubetcha7474]

Plastic weld them traction boards with a wood burning tool and use some donor plastic off a milk crate to beef up the cracks if need be. It looks sloppy but for what you're using them for (SNOW/MUD) who cares. In the Muck and Slop is where the fun is at, or until you have to clean it. LOL! As you know. Safe Travels Crazy!!!!

[@georgesmith8113]

Definitely should pick up a good set of traction boards. Did you lower your air pressure in your tires when you were stuck? Makes a huge difference. 👍👍👍👊👊

[@CrazyQuady]

I didn't this time, I should have

[@shanewitty1309]

Build the fire on top of two dry logs. works on the wet ground every time..

[@IC86]

A dirty truck means you are doing something right. Keep the traction boards -and- buy some more. Watching you cook and eat dinner always makes me all hungry. I enjoyed the scenery and the sunrise. Keep up the great work!

[@chrisrocha2661]

Next time you get dos equis try the one in the green bottle. And its pronounced dose.

[@michaelmallory2252]

Thanks for another video my brother, good to see ya out and about again, looking forward to the next one 👍

Thanks Mike Always Enjoy Your Camping Videos ..

[@bigdansplan9262]

Congrats on the recovery! I am from the school of thought that any emergency equipment should be 100% at all times. Sell that pair for a small amount (75% off). A new off-roader will snatch them up.

[@Lee-fh2wj]

Happy to see that your gear was still there, I would keep them and buy another set for just in case, holy, holy that dinner plate was sure plenty I would have been on the turlet for days lol. Thanks for sharing ur video can't wait for the next one cheers x

[@milwman1958]

Midwest mud season

[@niklaslund2204]

If they are still working, just keep them. I'm sure you will be more aware after you got stuck. Thanks for the amazing videos as always brother!

[@darrellnichter9894]

Harbor freight winch you can mount in Reese hitch...over the boards. Also through in a 100ft recovery rope is my vote!

[@garyfreeman9]

Hey man glad you got your recovery gear back. Best way I do to make a fire in the wet is that I put two pieces of cut wood like what you have and build my fire off of that. But at 11:30 I see your fire is starting to take off. Happy trails my friend 😊

[@Robert-jm3tv]

Watch them falling rocks! I hope you chose another mountain in the Sierras. It's always nice to see other people explore areas I frequent but never get to explore myself. Be safe out there.

[@richroj]

that was a great video Mike with that delicious meal you made and the fire and the nice warm cozy camper with the good movie 👍

[@CrazyQuady]

Thanks Rich ✌️

[@lizcoz4714]

Can't believe after a week hasn't dried up. Wow..

[@gazlyno]

@9:25 With regards to the traction boards I recommend you watch Ray Mears Extreme Survival, (Desert Survival) on KZbin. He uses metal ones and they are used by the British Army. I'm sure you should be able to get them or something similar over there in the U.S. Surprised by the ones you used, you'd have thought they would have been more robust

[@ikec4021]

Lol when u showed us that fire pit I was like no fn way. My daughter and I had aa pit like that one year an it took I swear a few hours to get a fore going. My flint an steel were so fucked after lol took everything I got but seeing my babies face light up meant everything

[@LoveDogs___3]

*You should try a dressed Frito pie. It's the same thing just add lettuce, tomato and onion, and shredded cheddar cheese on top. If I order one, even at Sonic, that's how I order them. They are really good that way!!!*

[@gamechanger1687]

Also..throw Fritos on plate. Use your favorite Taco meat. Use Monterey Jack and Cheeder shredded. Green Ches and Tomatoes diced up small or pace picante and Lots of Sour Cream. Strait bomb.

[@Robert-jm3tv]

I would keep the boards and use it next time. Still useable until if fully breaks. Too expensive to just throw out for cracks. The turns you made is called a "Steep Turn" made at a 45 or 50 degree bank angle. If you come out of it hitting your own wake turbulence, then you know you did it right. However not always the case.

[@ajachase6211]

I would keep the traction boards and buy another set, maybe upgrade the quality. They helped you go a lot further in that mud, 4 may have gotten you out. Also in my opinion I think 4hi with traction control off and let that ls engine sing would have been better over 4low. At least In my experience with mud the wheel speed helps clear the tire tread. Anyway looking forward to the next video. 🤘

[@duckypam]

That looked like a yummy meal. I'm cheap but I would get new traction boards. Just in case. Still smiling about the plane trip video. That was a treat.

[@koolazltd718]

Maybe fit a small compressor, dropping your tyre pressures right down in tricky conditions can sometimes get you out ✌️

[@jlgraham5606]

JB Weld those suckered! Might want to roughen up the edges before putting on the weld juice.

[@brianadams9442]

Frito Pie for tha win ! awesome video Quady.

[@meescha2798]

For some reason I didn't think anything would still be there, but who would be able to drive the road? New set would be best, have the room use the broken ones to sacrifice first if stuck again. Frito pie is a very satisfying dinner!

[@rickbuchanan5762]

Keep the broken traction boards and buy a winch. Keep 'em comin!

[@brendagresham1271]

Mike, when you consider this is how you make your living, I would advise to just go out and buy a new pair of traction mats that are more heavy duty. Just my thoughts. Happy trails

[@SandySellards]

Frito pie looked so good..I'd keep the boards..and buy new set..you never know!!

[@jonnywilson9117]

Better tyres dude over traction boards. Plus experiment with different pressures for that kind of deep mud. Dropping your pressures down to maybe 20psi, might have helped you get out. Traction boards are only suitable for getting out of a spot that you're stuck in when you don't then need to build up momentum. I'd say another set are literally worthless. Also with trying to move in mud, shake the steering wheel left and right. Didn't notice you doing that. That can also help majorly with gaining a bit of traction 👍

[@ginrobi01]

The last 2 seconds of today's vid nearly had coffee spewing out my nose! 😂😂🤣🤣

Great adventure! Stay safe! 😳👍🇺🇸

[@Brebear6971]

Well once again you have managed to find a campgrounds nobody visit any more lol keep the board till you can't use no more but remember if you go down a muddy road you may want to air down to get more traction and have a air pump to re air your tires

[@sandracrawford2594]

Just keeping you never know when you might have to to use them and you might have use them on every tire so keep it for a while and later down the road you can always throw them away.

[@tonytowers5889]

I would keep those and avoid going on roads that caused the breakage.

Have you considered a winch and an earth (or deadman’s) anchor instead of new recovery boards?

[@CrazyQuady]

I plan to add a winch at some point 👍

[@katievolk5368]

Rotella has an awesome mixture

[@Steve-Goff]

I’d probably get a new set of traction boards. I’d actually contact the manufacturer and let them know what happened to yours. I know the conditions were brutal but they shouldn’t have broke like that. The Frito pie looked really good

[@BryceB83]

I absolutely agree with your statement suggesting he contact the manufacture of the traction boards! Changes are fairly high if he explained not only how he used them and how they broke so easily, but also that he is a content creator on KZbin and there's a good change @CrazyQuady will have another opportunity to use them and could kind of plug their business in the process. Win/Win for all!

[@JoeHamRadioGuy]

Broken boards are better than nothing. Keep em and get a couple more for all four tires. Glad you were able to retrieve your stuff.

[@carrievornkahl6442]

I loved the airplane video. You should sign up to do a Discovery flight. It's like $125 for a beginner to decide if that's a class he'll want to take. I just found out about it and for my 67th birthday, I'm buying it for myself!! Definitely buy new recovery stuff!

toss the traction boards and invest in another set that are better quality there just gona break in half the next time. also im glad you put out the plane video it was hella fun.

[@rhondarauh2430]

[@jeanettefoster4051]

It seems like your viewers want to give you more food options. Gives you a bigger variety to create your menus. As for the boards, since they really don't take up space, I would keep them because who knows, you may need that extra length or piece in a situation that you more then likely will find yourself in. ***I am still waiting to see a small throw rug inside for your wet and muddy boots /shoes 😁🤪....
