28:00 Very cool to see an old school medium format camera being used!

[@frenchie4wd]

It’s my favorite camera I own. (Actually own two!)

[@RobDTom]

@@frenchie4wd Nice! I used to do Large Format photography. Great memories.

[@debbieyell8085]

Great video! What kind of camera is Kara using?

[@frenchie4wd]

It is a Hasselblad 500CM

[@RobDTom]

@@frenchie4wd Doesn't get much better than that!

Hi Matt, Cara, Rooster and Trailrecon. I really enjoyed the video. The scenery is just breathtaking and the caves and narrow passageways were awesome. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Those sculptures are some of my favorite little Easter eggs! I remember the first time I saw the Jeep one I actually thought it was a real Jeep that got stuck on the rocks!

[@CaptainKirk17012]

Wonderful episode. My wife and I just might plan a trip to Anza Borrego just to see the sculptures. After you were showing your camera to Carol on EFRT, we are interested in the back story, if you’re comfortable in telling us more about it? The story sounds like it could be very interesting. Thanks for sharing your adventures with everyone.

[@frenchie4wd]

I purchased the camera from an elderly man local that was a film photographer whose father was also a film photographer. He keeps all of their cameras in cases and maintenances them himself. He had a huge passion for medium format and is a wealth of knowledge. So many stories. He first purchased a Minolta Autocord that he shot 10 rolls of film through and purchased in 1965. He then upgraded to the Hasselblads. I have since purchased that Minolta as well from him as well as multiple backs. The Hasselblads he owns are collectors’ items and some have never been opened from the 50s. It’s quite remarkable to hear his stories and to see his passion. Medium format is not a chase the picture/memory type of photography. Rather the slowing down and understanding the all manual everything aspect of the camera invites you into the memory itself and allows you to truly sit there and soak it in. I have fallen in love with it.

[@Mariposaland]

Thanks Matt for another great story. I bought a RTT in December and finally got to spend the night in it out here near Fonts Point so I could enjoy the sunrise. It’s going to be interesting to see Brad in Arkansas. I hope he makes it.

One of your best

Thank you.

Rooster is something else. He is a great add to the adventures. another fantastic adventure. Thanks as always Matt and Cara. unbelievable views!

[@tomanderson9872]

Matt what drone are you using these days? I love how you always get so excited about the beauty of every place you visit! It makes me want to immediately plan a trip. Keep up the great content creation!!

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Thanks so much!! I’m using the DJI Mavic 3 Pro

[@AndrewTurner251]

Cool video, I always enjoy the videos. I have to say I really enjoy it when there is a meet up with Brad from TrailRecon. Those are my favorite.

Ricardo Breceda is the artist behind Galleta Meadows. He has a place up near Temecula that's open to the public and can either buy "off the shelf" sculptures, or commission work. He's a nice person.

[@dgio5052]

Welcome to Southern Cal.You are getting close to Death Valley. DV makes Anza look like a Wal-Mart parking lot. Ok, maybe not that drastic but this is the time to go!

[@gustavomartins846]

Watching from Connecticut 🙂

[@tacoma_jon]

Matt. Let Regina know they make rechargeable hand mixers now lol.

[@vandytouch7392]

Anza Borrego State Park is awesome. They filmed The Scorpion King movie there.

[@Neverlostoverland.]

That spot is amazing! I've always loved the desert.

[@Neverlostoverland.]

I would really like to go down there. It would be great.

Highly recommend

Cara sorry if it spelled wrong, that is a really cool camera.

Spelled right! Thank you!

Great video as always! Noted on the Coke...gross...

Where is Goose? New little guy is adorable. We also have a Frenchie.

[@frenchie4wd]

We just took Sully and with all of the gear, we didn’t have room for two car seats. This was Roo’s first time for this big of a trip too so we wanted to make sure everything went smoothly.

[@PittiesAndMore]

Great video again! Are you and Cara moving to Southern California? 45:46

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

No way. lol. I was saying Brad will come visit my backyard soon in the Ozarks.

[@PittiesAndMore]

​@@OzarkOverlandAdventuresAhhh...you would be crazy to move to California nowadays. 🤷🏽‍♂️😆 See you in your next video!

Hi Matt . I’m Vincent from Houston Texas. I’ve been watching your Chanel for years, that lead me to get my JT now . ( MOJAVE) I’ve already had 37 NITTOs , 2.5” lift, and plan to have my Gladiator re gear ( I choose 4.88 ). Please give me your advice if 4.88 is fitted for my Jeep . BTW , I chose Revolution gear sets . Thanks in advance. Love your channel as always.

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

If you’re keeping it light the 4.88s will be perfect. If it’s going to be a heavy build go with 5.14

[@vincentnguyen2977]

Love watching your videos and enjoy your adventures. You tube keeps unsubscribing me from your channel ugh.

Your Dream Coke is The Coke Ultimate flavor, though, is all tropical. It tastes like Coke mixed with Hawaiian Punch. But then there's a hint of artificial bitterness on the end, which is reminiscent of grenadine, making it taste like a canned Roy Rogers

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

I love Roy Rogers but that is definitely not it. LOL

[@Meanderthal-Adventures]

That sounds like a Freddy Kruger Dreamworld Coke

What breed is your pup?

Frenchie

[@codyjames2005]

Just curious, I really enjoy all of your videos, I always wondered though, coming from many years of being part of a search and rescue team I have noticed in almost every video that you have wandered away from the group or the camp you never carry any type of just in case pack or a waist pack with some basic emergency gear ! I would hate for you to have a fall or get lost and not have the basics to keep you alive! Just a friendly suggestion, because you are a great person and wouldn’t want to see anything bad happen to you that could have been avoided 😊

[@kirstenlieder5364]

Where is goose?

[@OzarkOverlandAdventures]

Goose was home. We didn’t have room for both and wanted Rooster to get some travel/camping experience on her own.
