Escape the Grind: Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Overland Camping

Exploring the balance between work and life while searching for the best dispersed overland camping site in my Jeep Gladiator. The spot I originally wanted to camp at has been converted from free, to now requiring camping fees to stay there. This is happening more often than I like, but fortunately, there are still plenty of free sites out there.

After 25 years at a job I hate, I decided to quit and just got into overlanding. This video is an ironic and timely welcome. Enjoy the simpler things and do what you want to do. Thx!

[@OffGridAdventure]

Enjoy! I thought about this topic for quite a while before putting it in a video. It’s good to have something else to do other than the daily grind. Thanks for stopping in!

[@tndeerhunter4812]

Glad to see you out camping! That cooking set-up is A-1

[@OffGridAdventure]

I appreciate you stopping in. I learned a few cast iron recipes from my brother. ;)

[@fscottgray9784]

Each trip out is a learning experience. Forget something once and you make sure to bring it the next.

[@OffGridAdventure]

It’s almost like I cycle the things I forget. Usually I just add it to my gear, but expendables sometimes don’t get replenished.

[@changechange2078]

Great video. Very well organized and very interesting

[@OffGridAdventure]

Thank you for checking it out. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

[@sereychoeun4452]

I totally agree with you brother!! Would love to do a meet up sometime.

[@OffGridAdventure]

I’m always down for an adventure.

[@-DestinationNoWhere-]

Get a collapsible step stool for help getting into fridge

[@OffGridAdventure]

I have one I need to bring. I hope to add a tilting slide in the future.

[@firstpathfrontier]

How did you mount the fridge slider to the Decked drawer top? I have the same set up.

[@OffGridAdventure]

Hey, here’s my entire process to mount it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJ7SeamAa6qSoassi=VP2k7hddY-UJKais

[@thebrownthomascrown917]

Ya I was one of those guys....couldn't turn it off and felt like my suit and tie was "it".

[@OffGridAdventure]

I feel you for sure. It’s good to step away and relax once in a while.

[@flatbroke68]

Hey brother, the payment unit sign has nothing to do with paying to camp there. It deals with the timber on that particular section. I can understand the confusion. It pays to know all the rules of the area you are in.

[@OffGridAdventure]

Thanks for pointing this out. I had seen a few of those signs with names on them over the last month. I’m always learning something new out here.

[@flatbroke68]

I learn something new everyday.

[@neurodivergentlily]

Lets goooooo!!

[@OffGridAdventure]

I finally made it to the end without crashing my drone! :)

[@neurodivergentlily]

​@@OffGridAdventure that's definitely worth celebrating!!!

[@neurodivergentlily]

Definitely appreciate the message in this video. I took a break last week in addition to my usual rest day because so much was going on. I'm still not at my best, but I'm feeling leaps and bounds better than i was a few days ago.

[@OffGridAdventure]

@@neurodivergentlily you’ll catch up eventually. Just take a little more time and it’ll work out soon enough.

[@user-rl6nb6yg3d]

You were pretty islolated at your campsite--do you bring something to deal with predators?

[@OffGridAdventure]

Absolutely.

[@shanejc4]

What's the height of your bed rack? Is it 24"

[@OffGridAdventure]
