Driving Highway 101 - Camping on the Oregon Coast

[@drewsimms]

Thanks for all the kind words and continued support! Had a great time shooting this one and got lucky with some of the craziest conditions I've seen on the Oregon Coast! Hope you're all doing well!

[@maxwellmuller]

Dude, best one yet...... When are you opening a '22 workshop?

[@drewsimms]

@@maxwellmuller Haha maybe end on the year or 2023! Would love to do one

[@DavisInDuval]

Are you still using the Mavic 2 Pro Drew? Those shots were some of the best drone shots I've ever seen. Thought maybe you went to one of the newer 10bit drones?

[@comewithcarson8191]

Hey can i buy your old i camp mini? do you still have it?

[@Boot_Ma9net]

Gorgeous footage. I need to get back to the 101 and do some real exploring. I spent 4 days of my honeymoon there driving from Portland to San F and I absolutely fell in love with it. 👌👌 Thanks for the video. It has all the feels

[@AidinRobbins]

This man just cranks out banger after banger. Love watching these 🙌

[@RVingwithG]

SO TRUE, but is also helps to have the TOP of the line gear and the prefect weather on the Oregon coast! ! !

[@drewsimms]

Appreciate it Aidin! We'll have to link up this summer and shoot something man 🙌.

[@stevenlee1110]

No kidding, so under-rated 🙄

[@johnquerits4262]

These first minutes already made me speechless, always amazing to see how beautiful our planet is, and yet we are still sitting in our homes in front of our computer. You're living the dream Drew

[@drewsimms]

Glad you enjoyed the video so much John

[@lora97006]

First few minutes made me homesick. Born & raised in Oregon...spent a lot of time along the coast too...so beautiful and peaceful. Moved to Arizona, has it beautiful parts...but nothing like Oregon. You talking about the weather woes lol...I've seen it sun, rain, hail, and snow in one day...more than once in my lifetime, lol. Oregon is beautiful but the gloom for so long finally got to me. Don't forget to check out the Tillamook factory- best cheese & ice cream - and cool place to see/visit. Enjoy...thanks for the great video 💗

I've been watching many other youtube channels that have this type of style but I can confidently say the level of quality that you are putting out is unmatched. I've seen nothing like it. I even make a point to watch this in 4k on my 65 inch tv because the cinematography is so beautiful. Don't stop doing what you're doing - I also love the cooking parts :)

[@tommcarthur2013]

Beautiful video to be sure. We will roam, is another outstanding channel you may enjoy.

[@drewsimms]

Thanks for this! Really appreciate hearing it and the kind words. Also glad to hear you're watching it on the big screen!

[@jeneva]

@@tommcarthur2013 Thanks Tom! I'll check it out.

Destination Adventure and Ghost Town Living are nearly as good as this, not to take anything away from this channel though. It's top notch!

[@jelm]

Only channel I only watch on my tv. Excellent as always, Drew.

[@saadmemon90]

Man i can't stress enough in saying that this channel is literally free therapy. Thank you so much Drew for taking us out of our crazy hectic lives to this calmness we all are craving for. You are an absolute legend, one of the best photographer/videographer/editor/grader in the world. Wishing you all the best and success.

[@drewsimms]

Man, really appreciate all the kind words Saad! Thanks for your support brotha!

[@_richardaustin]

Seriously Drew, if you made your videos full feature length, 2 hours long, I would watch every second of them. I just love your videos so much. I do prefer vlogs when you talk to us tho :)

[@drewsimms]

Thanks Richard! Love to hear that man

[@SamuelElkinsPhoto]

Absolutely stunning

[@drewsimms]

Appreciate it man. We'll have to link up this summer and shoot

[@jacob.outdoor]

I don't think I've ever seen anyone capture the Oregon Coast the way you did. All the conditions lined up perfectly but the way you captured it and edited it is what created a lasting memory for all the viewers. Your music choice and color grading are on point and I don't think anyone could've done a better job. Keep living your dream!

[@benh088]

I grew up on the Oregon Coast and now live in the Mountain West.. I've gotta say, you did the coast some great justice with that videography -- it made me homesick, for sure! My wife and I both agree that your videos are some of the best on KZbin, especially when considering the video quality and the beautiful shots you always get. Keep up the good work, we thoroughly enjoy the content!

[@iRecordRandomVids]

I’m a grown ass man, I just started tearing up dude. Those first 3 minutes took my breath away. I would pay to see these shots. Thank you for providing us with this content. It is absolutely unmatched

[@madisonfireman5006]

You seem to always be at the right place at the right time. Your drone footage is truly amazing.

[@drewsimms]

Got very lucky with these conditions!

[@grantbauer9511]

Thanks for sharing the beautiful footage! Looks like your ridgeline camp spot is at 42°40'32.27"N, 124°22'39.05"W? I'm looking forward to checking it out next time I venture to the coast!

[@xXxVIPER99xXx]

Man this is incredible. The shot of everyone just living their own life at different spots with their significant other, dogs or even just by themselves with their own thoughts was amazing.

[@drewsimms]

Thanks Eric! So well said man. I think those were definitely my favorite shots from this one.

[@RishabhKancherla]

Those first shots are something I’ve truly never seen before. And that is really something special since almost everything has been done on KZbin before.

[@overwanderadventures7312]

The Oregon coast looks absolutely incredible. Just recently discovered your channel and love your film style. I’m traveling the country with my pup right now out of the back of my SUV filming our adventures and Oregon is definitely on the list of places to explore, looks incredible!

[@drewsimms]

Love to hear you're out on the road! I seem to always find myself heading back to that coastline. Hope you can get out there soon!

[@overwanderadventures7312]

@@drewsimms I only hear good things about the coast! Definitely can’t wait to get out there, planning for October of this year

Be sure to travel through Oregon Coast Hwy 101, you’ll enjoy the views.

You don't create just videos; you create documentaries with amazing photography that's therapy for the soul.

[@dirahs_yt9943]

11:55 THIS SHOT. OMG. My jaw literally dropped!! The scenery is already ethereal but your shot made it spectacular. This video might be my favorite yet from your channel, I am loving your shooting style from this one, and I hope you to continue to upload more of these videos. Lots of support from me 😆😆😆

[@drewsimms]

Thanks for the kind words! Got very lucky with that cloud inversion. Glad to hear you enjoyed the style of this one

The Oregon Coast never disappoints!! Like always, great job capturing Oregon’s beauty!!

[@drewsimms]

Ageed! Such a beautiful area

[@DDK1068]

Oregon ought to pay you. Jeep ought to support you. The food companies ought to support you. Because your stuff is art. We pause over and over during each of your videos just to appreciate the marvelous photography. The subject matter and composition is impeccable. Carry on. Shalom.

[@travys91]

Been following you for like 3 years now it feels like. Love seeing how much you have and continued to grow. Cannot wait to see where you’re at in another 3. Keep doing great work my guy.

[@drewsimms]

Thanks for being here still! Really appreciate all the support

[@davidirwin4067]

Drew, this is, I think, the best video of the Oregon coast that I have seen. The off season months are a great time to be here but be prepared for quickly changing weather. I live in Brookings, Oregon and wouldn't live anywhere else, but my days of having a career and raising kids are behind me and so that is my prerogative. Your driving on the beach made me nervous. It's so easy to get bogged down in the sand. The Coast Guard had to yank me out once. Thank you for your good work!

[@J24606]

Absolutely outstanding! Award worthy. 👍

[@drewsimms]

Thanks Jean!

[@sherriking-barron7939]

My husband sent this to me and after about 20 seconds in, I was glued all the way through! Absolutely the best of the best coverage and narration. I'm going to watch this like everyday!

[@brendabarrickman1030]

Love the beautiful scenery on the Oregon coast. Great job!

[@drewsimms]

Oregon coast is tough to beat!

[@moosespeak6140]

Thank you for doing the Oregon Coast so much justice. 12 5 yrs hitchhiking the 101. I knew friends in Santa Cruz and id hitch up to Florence and east to Eugene. Me and my dog hammock camped alot in small spots right off the highway with amazing views.

[@cannabiscraftsman1278]

this is a cinematic masterpiece..

This is clearly the work of a virtuoso. I’ve yet to see anyone else on KZbin achieving this level of performance. Absolutely inspiring.

Unbeliveable nature, stunning really. Love your vlogs!

[@robingilmore1444]

Man! I've lived in Oregon all my life and never seen our coast like you've shown me. If I was 20 years younger I would get your type of camping gear but now I don't think I could get my old self in the penthouse tent you have. Thank you so much for giving me a new view of my home. Show me some more please.

[@Alastair_]

As a man who lives in the North West of Scotland I can say this scenery is.. acceptable, just about the highest praise I can give for somewhere not in Scotland XD

Haha gonna have to make my way over there eventually

[@LivingTheDream-OffroadUSA]

Beautiful Oregon!

[@tommyc2602]

Drew please do a camping cookbook, I promise I’ll be the first one on line to buy it! Everything you make always look so good!! How do you like the new ikamper 3.0? Worth upgrading from the 2.0 I Have now?

[@drewsimms]

Haha maybe someday! 3.0 definitely has a more comfortable mattress! Everything else is very similar to the 2.0 though

[@702bartending6]

First time watching this channel. It’s funny, I’ve been watching other campers and overlanding channels of KZbinrs. Unlike “primal outdoors” or “soft roading the west” other Oregon KZbinrs. This guy is more bougie and way less rugged. His gear and kitchenware is more yuppie than what I have in my kitchen at my house. Lol Just goes to show you all KZbinrs making similar videos will have a way to appeal to different folks. It’s also cool since this might expose someone to trying camping when they see they can have luxury outdoors. Thank you for the video Drew. I grew up in Oregon and I appreciate watching videos of my old stopping grounds! - Cheers from Las Vegas

Thank you Drew this just opened up memory lane. I remember it was my birthday week during August and I wanted to do something spontaneous. I called up 2 of my buddies to do a HWY 101 trip with me and it was just us going the whole stretch down from Vancouver, WA to Neah-Kah-Nie Mountain to Coos Bay, OR. Stopping on every scenic spots down the memorable drive. Veered east to the Wildlife Safari then to Crater lake then to painted Hills and back home. It was the most memorable drive/trip I've ever done. From Sea Lion caves to surfing on the sand dunes to the unbelievable sunsets. A memory I will never forget and will always cherish.

[@brollins1130]

Have to say I've watched a lot of KZbin over the years!!! Follow several outdoor car living channels. This was by far one of the best if not the best videos I've ever seen. Do yourself a favor anyone reading this to watch it on a big screen tv!!! Appreciate the video man it was amazing!!!
