Hiking And Camping In North Carolina

[@andreasdahl717]

This is what the Vanagons are all about! Go adventure. Big or small. Just go.

I know that country well, and I like the tone of this piece.

Nice video, I'm in the process of restoring my Westy and looking forward to these kinds of adventures! Thanks for the vids about repairs too, very helpful.

[@gottasplit5707]

Thanks for watching, and good luck with your project!

Great travel and hiking adventures! That traffic jam is quite common going over Newfound Gap during the fall. I remember one year it took over two hours to get from Cherokee to Gatlinburg.

[@gottasplit5707]

Wow! Well, at least the scenery is nice while you're stuck in the traffic jam, haha.

[@oldgadfly8398]

Fun travel video! Thanks for sharing your adventure. I appreciate that you guys overcame the problem and pressed forward.

[@gottasplit5707]

Haha, still surprised the coolant lines held together throughout the whole trip. Thanks for watching!

Nice vid dude🤙. Kept saying to myself, MAN look at those vans!! Haha I do the same to mine too, they’re such a cool ride🎉

[@gottasplit5707]

Thanks!!! Haha! What's that old saying? If you buy a car that you don't look back at every time you park, you got the wrong one. lol

[@CholulaDaddy]

[@gottasplit5707]

Nice video. I’m in Wilmington NC. That trip in my 85 Westy is on my bucket list. ✌️

[@gottasplit5707]

Thanks for watching and happy travels! ✌️

[@wilderness.patrol]

Good stuff man!

Hi, This was super enjoyable travelogue video to watch. Thanks for all effort to put together. I’m trying to decide between a Westy and a more peace-of-mind B class RV. Regardless, super fun to watch your trip. Thanks for putting together.

[@gottasplit5707]

Thanks for watching!

[@DarrenC_Paddler]

I’m sure you know the NC area. I did a Jeep Wrangler tour in western NC. Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Asheville area. Very fun. You could do a “Movie trip.” Lake Lure is famous for “Dirty Dancing”, Chimney Rock is famous for “Last of the Mohicans.” Asheville has Biltmore Estate. I’m sure that’s been in some movie. Thanks again. Very fun watching. I’ve shared with others.

Awesome video!

Thanks for watching!

@@gottasplit5707 no problem! We really enjoy making outdoor content also

[@stigohara4961]

One can measure the left daylight by hand? Does that really work? Nice trip. Thanks for taking us along.

[@gottasplit5707]

I believe it's every hand width the sun is above the horizon is equal to an hour (each finger is 15min) of sunlight left. Not sure how accurate it is, or if its accurate everywhere, but it worked well enough where we were. Thanks for watching!

[@longboardluv2]

great video, what do you film with again?

[@gottasplit5707]

Thanks man! A Canon EOS with a small Rode mic.

[@scottbassman6092]

How did the long coolant hoses hold up? What was the hose cost?

[@gottasplit5707]

I can't remember the cost, but they weren't cheap. They are still on the van and haven't leaked yet.
