Driving the Continental Divide to Crested Butte! Colorado RV Trip

[@bobhewlett3633]

One of your best videos. Spectacular scenery, great tips for Crested Butte. Was furiously writing notes for future reference. Travel safe.

[@EatSeeRV]

Haha 🤣 so glad!

[@dianabergeron7499]

I can’t remember if I asked you guys this before, you had a 5th wheel before, what made you decide to change to a Class C? We’re considering selling ours and getting a travel trailer because we don’t have a slide or tow anything. I’ve only followed you with your current RV. It’s a tough decision because we have a Ford 150 with a lift so we’re limited in size of what we can tow...🤔

[@dianabergeron7499]

I wanted to add that another RVer I follow uses Nomad Internet...that may help you...

[@EatSeeRV]

That's who we're using now, thanks for sharing the tip!

[@EatSeeRV]

We're hoping to do a whole video on this because there were many reasons we downsized. But to help you now (not when a video posts who knows when) we mainly chose to downsize for ease on travel days, and simplicity of being able to go more places, park where we want, take our rig into the town or city without worrying. We also wanted the freedom to be in the cab, not towing and having to get out of the truck or vehicle and into the trailer/fifth wheel. That has been SO nice! It's great with the cats too. - Liz

[@Livefreediefree]

Great country! Hope we can get there some day when the world is past this difficult time. Thank you so much for taking us along on your journey.

[@EatSeeRV]

Hoping you can too. It will pass. Safe travels where ever you are! - Liz

[@garycollins7688]

Glad you enjoyed CB , I have been there many times ( summer and Winter) it’s my favorite Colorado town.

[@bbyjcky1]

Just curious, do you guys carry bear mace? Or are any concerned with bear encounters. Ive read the black bears wont provoke you unless provoked, but then ive read theyve ventured closer to hiking paths in recent years. Concerned mama here haha i really wanna hike with our 2 yr old.

[@lorirugato6463]

I've been looking for a van or rv since covid but prices have doubled. I have 2 kitties too im so concerned about them getting out my 1 cat won't wear a harness. Thank you for Colorado i miss it so.

[@EatSeeRV]

It's a beautiful place. Be patient and definitely don't over pay. But I do imagine supply and demand won't be balanced for a while. Try to find what you can do now to explore if that's what you want.

[@byronbrasher8118]

what is the cc on that scooter

[@EatSeeRV]

300 cc's

[@lorirugato6463]

Love Colorado ❤ I would be nervous with heights in tunnel. My home away from home enjoy

[@EatSeeRV]

We checked before entering haha! We were at first too. But plenty of space - Liz

[@crittercamera]

You had some good nuggets but just FYI nobody ever wants to see other people eating and especially Pizza. And a little less talking head stuff and more cutaways to scenery. Good video though.

[@EatSeeRV]

👍

[@IamaDutch-Kiwi]

Mindbogglingly ( is that a word?) beautiful. Such amazing drone shots too. So privileged to have been able to come along for the ride ( and walk). Next time: place sunscreen in a wee plastic pouch before putting in your bag.( I speak from experience 😂). Happy travels and stay safe. 👍🎥👍❤️🙋‍♀️🙏🇳🇱

[@EatSeeRV]

🤣It's a word now! The silly thing about that sunscreen bottle is that it has a twist lock cap... 🤦‍♂️ Happy to hear you enjoyed the Crested Butte vlog! Thank you for coming along with us! - Dennis

[@willieiso118]

Glad your surfing safe... I use PIA (private internet access) for my VPN - same concerns - same goal - different provider... geo-blocking is struggle for many of us....

[@EatSeeRV]

No doubt! We're definitely enjoying our Surfshark experience. Thanks for watching! - Dennis

[@thesiteseekers7867]

Was there plenty of room at the boondocking spot in Washington Gulch you mentioned it was busy .......

[@EatSeeRV]

Awesome! When were you there? Summer seems to be busy time of year there.

[@davetravo]

Very impressed with your drone footage ... how do you get such good drone footage while still driving, would love those tips,. Such beautiful countryside ...

[@EatSeeRV]

Thanks David! One of us drives while the other fly's. The newer DJI drones do have auto tracking features. But I wouldn't trust them on curvy mountain roads. Glad you're enjoying our videos! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!- Dennis ✌️

[@stevewrick5768]

Awesome video. I am new to your channel. So far I am really enjoying your RV adventures especially going to the breweries.

[@EatSeeRV]

Hi Steve, welcome to then channel! We're stoked you enjoyed it Crested Butte travel vlog! Stay tuned we will definitely be bringing you along on more brew tours soon. If you haven't watched it already, we did a self guided brewery tour in Denver. Thank you so much for watching! - Dennis 🍻

[@everintransit4240]

That is a favorite drive in Colorado.

[@EatSeeRV]

It was gorgeous! Ours too by a long shot - Liz

[@ramonacaponio4885]

Enjoy watching you guys. Our RV will be ready next January. We are doing it !!! So please keep your videos coming :). I love the chairs you have, they look so comfy. Can you please tell me where I can buy them and a name or brand ? Thank !!! ( outside chairs)

[@EatSeeRV]

Wohoo! Congrats very exciting :) Camping Chairs: amzn.to/3nCGsBI

[@healeybob1]

BTW if you get to Durango take the 550 North, then the million dollar highway.

[@EatSeeRV]

That video is coming soon! What an epic drive!

[@bethb6568]

Wonderful vid kids! Your video pictorials and accompanying music is such great entertainment and education. We have a beautiful country don’t we? In geography and people! Sharing a mutual love of adventure and wonderment for the world is a special bond for a marriage...you are inspiring for many.❤️

[@EatSeeRV]

It is a wonderful country! So much to see and enjoy. Glad you enjoy the video :)

[@karadalton4699]

Found you guys when you were posting about Mexico and now look forward to your videos every week. Really appreciate all the info that you share-camping spots, hikes, breweries yea! That curried chickpea wrap sounded delicious! Any chance you could share the recipe? Also, where did you find those coconut wraps? Thx!

[@EatSeeRV]

Thats awesome!! Yes, this is the recipe I adapted from :) pinchofyum.com/curry-chicken-salad

[@Brendasan23]

Beautiful! We loved CO when we were there. We will plan another trip for sure.

[@EatSeeRV]

Yay! I'm sure it'll be wonderful. It's such a beautiful state - Liz

[@alfasamiam]

Ok, been watching your great videos for a while now, and I have what may seem like an odd question. I’ve now noticed in several videos that the steering wheel on your rig has a Dodge Ram logo on it, yet the coach appears to be built on a Mercedes chassis (complete with tri-piont logo hood emblem)... just curious. Love the videos, and your fun relaxed vibe!

[@EatSeeRV]

Hey Sam, thank you so much for your kind words! I too think it's odd that the wheel is badged dodge and I have no idea why that is. Chrysler did assemble and brand the Sprinter line for a few years before Mercedes took it back over. But I can't imagine why ours has both logos. - Dennis 🤣

[@ijblessjourney]

Enjoyed your video. I’m a beer lover so we will definitely visit the brewery you recommend. Can you please tell us where you bought the rug you place on the side of your rig? We love it. Thanks in advance. Ivan & Josie

[@EatSeeRV]

Glad you enjoyed the Crested Butte video! Yeah The Eldo is worth a visit for sure. We got the mat from amazon. Here's a link to the exact one we have: amzn.to/2ELjpmH Thanks for watching! - Dennis 🍻

[@garretlewis4103]

The title was good. The views were great. The train tunnel looked really cool. We wanted to hook up our small camper and check it out. Liz.....”I could have a million of these and never be done.” Oh, you have a million of them you would definitely be done. 😀

[@EatSeeRV]

🤣🤣 that's what I told her! - Dennis

[@travelswiththebeast3337]

Dennis and Liz, thanks for the video on Crested Butte. My wife and I home base in Mt Crested Butte and I am a former Mayor of that town. You did a great job showing CB. Just for clarification. Crested Butte was founded in 1880 as a supply town for the silver mines around the area. After the silver bust of the mid 1880’s they found high grade anthracite coal on the ridge south of town and it was a coal town into the 1950’s. It would have been a ghost town except for the founding of the ski resort in 1964. One other interesting fact is that some of the houses and other buildings in CB were moved from the town of Irwin after it closed down. Love the aerial work on Scarp’s Ridge and Long Lake.

[@EatSeeRV]

🤯These are some rad bits of local info, thank you! I wouldn't mind owning a little piece of land near Crested Butte. I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching! When we revisit CB we will have to get some recommendations from you, if that's ok with you? - Dennis ✌️

[@travelswiththebeast3337]

Eat See RV No problem. By the way, you were lucky to leave before the storm. About 18 inches at my house and about 2000 homes without power in Gunnison because of near hurricane force winds bringing down trees. I was prepping our RV for a trip and had to blow out lines since it was unpowered in a storage yard. Currently in Bozeman MT starting to had back home. Safe travels and maybe we can meet up on your next loop through the area.

[@5mjc]

I love the footage you record, awesome locations, very interesting.

[@EatSeeRV]

[@billwaterhouse5894]

The mountains look great. Crested Butte itself looks like a place that is well organized to extract the greatest amount of money from tourists.

Yes and yes. - Dennis 🤣

[@sandras1524]

how about nomad internet?

[@EatSeeRV]

We actually found a solution we'll be sharing in next week's video. Thank you for the suggestion though! - Liz

[@ftkinsella]

Hey those views were truly incredible but why not stick around for the snow? A couple of beer, some delicious wraps and two beautiful people. Can’t beat that. Take care guys. Cheers!!!

[@EatSeeRV]

We aren't used to driving in snow, we were out of water and needed propane and were nervous about dry camping in the snow! We're not used to those types of temps. We found an RV park and I wanted snow to stick but it didn't ☹️ - Liz

[@ftkinsella]

Eat See RV the best thing for that is to jump in with both feet and cross the border into Canada around February 1’st with your rig and drive. You can drive all around Ontario, come for a visit and then head back in about two months. You should be good by then. Hahahahaha. Cheers!!!
