[@enjoytheridedude]

I’ve been watching overland KZbin videos to relax for years, especially during Covid when I was in the hospital call rooms. Don’t worry about the few haters in the comments. You’re doing God’s work. Coming from the other side actually making videos and editing…it’s also work, people hating have no idea how hard it is to shoot footage, drive, edit, plan trips. It’s a real job. The service part is even when I don’t have the energy to go out and do it myself now, I can come home after a long day and be transported there with you when I relax on the couch with my feet up. Anyways I say at that to say thanks for all that you do…the editing is sweet, loving the drone shots and all the little things in your videos, super polished and professional. Keep it up.

[@AsterixmGame]

I just really appreciate that I am not the only one who likes to roll up to camp and make an Old Fashioned. I also really like how simple the bronco build is, I can always respect a clean build like that. Loved the vid keep up the great work!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Is it even camping without an old fashioned!? Haha! And thank you. I like to keep things pretty minimal and only pack what I need

[@edthayer4258]

It’s nice to see a fire started without a butane torch for a change

[@jmo0311]

Loved the music less shots with the birds chirping and the water running. Gave me a relaxing kinda vibe. Great video.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Awesome that’s good to hear! It was a bold choice but I thought it was relaxing too. Thanks!

[@bigcountry6697]

I'm not tired of the adds at all. A minute or two of add time is well worth it. Gotta pay your bills bud. Haha. Haters gonna hate. Fantastic video. Great music, quality, and editing. I can't imagine how much post-production work goes into videos like this. Earned a sub. Thank you! Thank you both.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks man! Yeah it’s a lot of work but I feel so lucky that this is what I get to do with my life right now

[@bebo6750]

Amazing video! Watching your videos makes me to buy a Bronco and explore the nature! I enjoyed the whole experience and your friend looks so friendly and a good man to take for this type of trips!

[@OverlandingArmyVeteran]

You are right Sahun is a good guy, I see him in his own videos and in everyone else's only a real good guy would you see with everyone.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

One of the most genuine and awesome people I know. Few people love adventure more than him

[@fulybuilt]

Cool to see you linked up with Shaun great episode.

[@mikegallagher2732]

THIS IS AWESOME....As are those Ice cubes... LOL!!!!!! That area looks AMAZING..

[@JasonSmith-gq4hb]

I fell asleep watching this last night. I currently live in Dutch Harbor, a remote island 800 miles from Anchorage AK. I miss trees and T-shirts SO much! Thanks for the sound of the gravel and rainfall as I drifted off.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

My pleasure. Sounds like a pretty cool spot to live actually but I’m sure it has its challenges

[@JasonSmith-gq4hb]

@@OFFTHEGRIND it’s “unique” that’s for sure. If it weren’t an island halfway to Russia, it’d be a dream location. Road trips are out, as there’s only about 20 miles total of road here. But just like many can relate to, it is cool to experience a remote place that most never will. It never hit 60° this year, and we go from winter hoodies to summer hoodies. That’s the climate. 🙄But… I’ll be retired in a couple of years, and doing my best to live in a Bronco in the desert. My dog, sunsets, coffee, and peace.

[@Beattheroutine]

Really digging the natural sounds with the drone shots.

[@AriesWolfy]

I absolutely love watching off-road and off the beaten path and the trails less taken, it is honestly really entertaining and enjoyable to watch! when I watch these videos like yours, I dream about being there too and having that experience of getting off the grind!! unfortunately I am financially struggling so badly right now but I hope one day that will change and I can do everything like this and make videos for people to enjoy. but for now I am stuck in this town with an optimistic look to move away and explore one day. you guys did an amazing job and to me everything was awe inspiring for me to back to nature and create such beautiful memories that i can share with my son and others!

[@OrionAdventures]

Loved the cinematography in this one. Really great adventures. Loved that we got to experience the trail at the same time as you and your buddy. Pre-scouted adventures are not as fun behind the wheel or behind the keyboard.

[@lassevaananen2027]

Nice vid and awesome location. Honestly, i dont understand that one persons hate. I drive lifted Rav4 Prime in europe, and this was my first year for overlanding - and i love it. Cant wait for next trip.

[@toyotabay442]

awesome video you can tell you put alot of time in your videos and it shows keep up the good work!🤘

[@nolanstrawn831]

Hey this is Nolan at Mammoth Overland. LOVED chatting with you when you dropped of the trailer. You are a real down to earth guy and I love your channel. Dont listen to haters, the biggest thing is if they hate something they dont have to watch it. Look forward to seeing where you go brother.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Hey man it was great chatting with you too! I’m with you, nothing is forcing people to watch this stuff. Simply click away. Hope to get back up and hang out with you guys soon!

[@prohero22]

Amazing video! Thank you.

[@JarradShaw]

So beautiful. You are getting so so SO good with your drone, color and edits into the video. Pure magic brother❤

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thank you so much! I felt out of my element in this one honestly but I’m so glad you liked it

[@jmbugno]

I love EVERYTHING about this adventure!

[@phillipmoody1209]

The wind, water, and birds. 👌. Try Four Roses bourbon sometime, bang for buck, it's great for cocktails.

[@kirkthorpe5392]

Old fashioned on the river bank….thats heaven right there my dude

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

I 100% agree! Best thing ever

[@user-tj3yi9zj4m]

Love the collab! the region is amazing and one of the best kept secrets! keep up the great work and we will keep smashing the like button 😅

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thank you! This was a great time!

[@TaylorGibleroffroad]

It might look like it hasn’t been driven in awhile. But in the snow, we’re up there almost every weekend! Easy to lose a rig at that washout area in the ice!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

No effing way I’m driving that road in the snow lol

[@TaylorGibleroffroad]

@@OFFTHEGRIND haha. Yeah! It gets gnarly brotha.

[@jmbugno]

I want to join you out there

[@naki_.]

Wow.. this guys living the dream

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Certainly can’t complain!

[@FirstDueOverland]

what an EPIC river spot! Awesome job as usual, the cinematography is amazing!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Yeah that spot is killer! Thanks

[@onasledoverland]

Thanks David. Wonderful video. You all are so lucky to live where you do. I have to drive for several days to get to anything like this. ❤❤

[@justdrive5384]

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL VID, MORE ADVENTURES PLEASE

[@eelopez2011]

Just want to say hi and say your Channel has give me a lot of motivation for truck camping or exploring the wilderness

[@username0423m]

I started watching the story till now and I expanded to watching other channels, I recently traded my Chrysler 300 in for a Jeep Gladiator Willys, so happy I did it.

[@coffee-dogg]

Great video, Just signed up to your Patreon community, The content is always fantastic.

[@AlecBig]

Loved the arrival, bad 🫏. Best sounding jeep I've heard 👍🏼

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Yeah that thing is mean

[@chrissolomon8868]

After watching this episode with shawn....I did subscribe to your channel...guys loved this epic adventure ..awesome and beautiful river side camping....good luck for the future adventures

[@JacobScript]

Enjoyed the whole experience man. Thanks for sharing!

[@benjaminjonholman]

Great video again, David. I've only made a few trips over to the Olympics, but hopefully, I will get more time over there this year.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks! Love the Olympics. Also great in the winter

[@GenEric94]

I follow your guys videos the most so it was a pleasant surprise to see the collab haha

[@williamshelley9633]

Same!

[@DefiantOffroad]

Looks like it was a great time. I share your disdain of heights! I've wanted to visit the Olympics for a long time. Perhaps I'll make it out there one day!

[@morsaoverland]

Man what a video! Loved it and suscribed right now! Keep rocking

[@subcreep]

What a well done video! Great adventures and good friends are the keys to a great life! Looking forward to seeing more vids like this! Also, what engine does Shaun have in that Gladiator? Thing sounds beastly!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks so much and I couldn’t agree more! Love getting out and getting lost with good people. He’s got a hemi of some sort. It’s pushing 600+ hp!!

[@VictorVlogsPDX]

That washout dude! 😮😮 And those shots driving down the trail with the green grass. Magnificent! Also, custom OTG ice? WHAAAT?? 😮😮👊👊

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Haha yeah my wife got those for me for my birthday! I love them! Thanks man! And yeah that washout wasn’t fun lol

[@fernandomartin624]

Great video brother!

[@SpencerHogg]

Looks like a solid vibe, I love the mtns between south of the BC Border. Hope to visit there someday, for now, it's on the list !! Great video as always buddy.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

@@SpencerHogg thanks so much man! If you ever make it down this way, I’d love to get a trip in with you

[@MeanOneMeanOne]

Looks like fun as hell! But I don't do heights/drop-offs and my old F-150 wouldn't be able to hang with you guys. Great vid Bro

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

I don’t either, but there I was lol

[@TammysTrailsNTravel]

love the branded ice cube & whiskey glass. your drone footage is really really good

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thank you to both! I worked hard on both things lol

[@TheAlmightyFoo]

Happy to see you grindin' up some Cutters Point. Love that stuff!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

It’s so good! I love that they are a local roaster too

[@MONTY4X4]

I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion. The marketing plugs don’t bother me a bit. Keep of the good work man! The effort that goes in to videos like this is profound and incredibly time consuming. See you on the trail!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks so much for that. I’m glad you enjoy this and appreciate the effort put in to these videos

[@timaugustine3856]

So THAT'S why the gate was locked. 😁

[@adams.6414]

Beautiful drone work. Very nice as always

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks!

[@GirdlerFamilyOverland]

Great video and camera/drone work. Now I need that rocks glass and some branded cubes lol

[@keithfitterer6899]

Bulletin, Pendleton and Buffalo trace are my selections. I also have the 22 big bend in the carbonized grey with the sas pkg.!👍👍. Nice video!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

All three are good options. Bulleit is my go to for cocktails but felt like switching it up. Thanks man!

[@jeffhudson1744]

great video! excellent camera work. beautiful country side. camping by the rivers in Washington is much different than Iowa except in the northeast part of the state where there is more stone and rock that field runoff. wondering though, how much problems you and Sean have had with vehicle breakdowns. some of the place you go would not be extra easy to be rescued.

[@upper_left_adventures]

One of my favorite river spots for your first night. Have spent many nights in the same spot. Videos are looking better for sure!

[@HaugenDustin]

Thanks for not giving it away. My favorite spot too.

[@bronco.nirvana]

@offthegrind you have great footage. What program or app do you use to edit your videos? Thanks!

[@NorthShoreOverland]

Awesome adventure guys! For Shauns arrival you ahould of did the Jurasic park trex entrance. Havve the old fasion start to riple wotbt rhe sound of his engine 😅

[@wendelclements6448]

Hey man I just came across your channel. Was an epic trip. Yea there were a couple close call but hey gotta take a chance every now and then. Not sure where it was that y’all were at but awesome place. From down south Louisiana here so I don’t get to see much of the type of scenery lol. I did subscribe so going took at some of your pass vids and look forward to the next ones. Safe travels man

[@jeffe236]

By any chance could you do a short on how you make you old fashions? I’ve been craving them since I became a subscriber and dang near every place I’ve went makes them terrible. I want to do the same tradition as you to have one when you set up for camp when I eventually make my off road trip in the PNW

[@Exploringthewildlands]

That spot on the river is the best!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

It’s so good!

[@Exploringthewildlands]

@@OFFTHEGRIND yea we’re hitting that spot Sunday night for sure.

[@mikeday4383]

Love the video as always! This is on of your best. I do love OnX as well. This trail might be a little tight for my F150 Tremor, but my KTM 890 Adventure R would be fun, just harder to pack is stuff. Keep up the good work, and hope to see a fish caught one day 😂. Cheers

[@ImpactOffroadWheels]

Great clips from this adventure 🔥‼️

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thank you 🙌

[@lucacadianalbert]

wow those camping spots are just wow...damn, wish I was there now. Did you guys backtrack out or kept going?

[@AngerManagementOverland]

David what awning is that???? Awesome video. Love those muddy forest trails!!!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

It’s the moon shade. It’s pretty sweet man I dig it. And thank you!

@@OFFTHEGRIND We need to get the Broncos together in your neck of the woods!!!!.

[@helodriver20]

Another great video. Keep cranking them out. 🤙🏻🇺🇸

[@Escape.Idiocracy]

Do you post your rout anywhere? Forks is a few hours to me and the area you are in would be awesome to check out.

[@RustBeltFab_]

I just stumbled on to your channel. I’ll be going back in your videos to look into the back story of your channel. Just out of curiosity did you build your own rig?

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

It’s been a long run. Hopefully you look back and think, “he’s come a long ways” lol. Yea I did. I feel it’s important to know your vehicle. Especially when on the trail. That way you know if something feels off and are more likely to be able to resolve it

[@vl7852]

That was awesome!

[@Herr-Unterberg]

did you have Info about your shade awning for me (link etc...) 😇

[@michaelb9163]

Lift looks good 👌🏼

[@thegiant573]

New to the channel, what tires are on the bronco and do you like them? If you don't like heights like me, Saun may not be the best buddy to go driving with.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

He’s a daredevil, but he has the same desire to make it home to his family at the end of a trip as I do. Plus, I chose this trail lol I am running the nitto ridge grapplers and I really like them. If you drive in the highway a lot or live somewhere where you get a lot of snow l, I would recommend the nitto recon grapplers or the falken AT4Ws

[@Just4cruz]

Pimp out ice cube!.. that’s golden!

[@davepalmer1739]

I was right there on the 4th, but didn't realize the trail continued beyond the first water crossing. I thought it was just a put in.

[@xXCookEmAliveXx]

Where’s this at?

[@Intrepid17011]

Hey there, whats that Shade called you used in the beginning of the Video to cover your Trunk/Kitchen Area ? Have a great Week and thanks for the Video !

[@frankdepasquale8715]

The bronco is nice but the jeep is just so much nicer. I have a 2020 Jeep gladiator and a 2024 bronco raptor. It’s such a tossup which one I like better love watching the video you guys got going on

[@Propeticandprayministri5052]

Nice car 🙏🏻

[@lukedeloye6101]

🔥🔥 would love to adventure with yall one day

[@thegiant573]

As host always prescout your trails and that way you can get a route you are comfortable with before adventuring. This will allow you to take in to consideration all the capabilities of the vehicles and drivers in your party. Also helps to avoid shelf roads!!!!! I know I would. New here can't wait for more adventures!

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

I truly didn’t have time to. But Shaun is up for anything so I knew we could just wing it

[@dansayer76]

What front bumper is that?

+1 Sub more, you would no believe it, it was the ice-cubes that braught me here, don't know how... I have questions: how do you do the icecubes when "mobile" and second: what's that sunshade that you mount on the back of your veh'c? Epic journeys....br

Hey lovely video like always. Just wanted to ask you. the color of your bronco....it's carbonized gray or the LUTs make it look like that?

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Thanks so much! Yes, it is the carbonized grey

[@santoshrane]

@@OFFTHEGRIND Thank you. I'm booking mine this week, and was not sure how it looks on the road, since the show roof does not have the same color model....I'm in the middle east, so it will be interesting to see how bronco performs at 50deg C and above

[@Socal_392]

Good vid. Logo on the ice though…just stop 😂😂

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Lmao! Oh it’s so extra but it’s awesome lol

[@The_Teddington]

Just found you from Shawn’s video. So I’ve got to ask, as I am a bourbon and rye enthusiast, what’s your favorite?

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

Oh man that’s a hard question… for cocktails I like bulleit best. IMO it holds up best to added sweetness. But neat?? Too many good ones to pick a fav. Also mood dependent

[@The_Teddington]

@@OFFTHEGRIND good answer. Bulleit is always solid. I’ve been having a great time with Sazerac Rye for old fashioned’s, and High West Bourbon for my sours. Both are good neat too. Like you said though, def depends on the mood. Lately it’s been the Eagle Rare 10 year I’ve been sipping on.

[@OFFTHEGRIND]

@@The_Teddington oh dude eagle rare is so good. I also love michters. Always get excited when I see one
