HOW DID I WIND UP HERE? An UNEXPECTED DETOUR to YELLOWSTONE | Solo Woman living in a Travel Trailer

[@stephenfowler8376]

Thank you for showing that area again. My grandmother lived in Three Forks, MT, another 39 miles downstream from Ennis on the Madison, the night of the quake. They had everyone along the Madison on high alert to evacuate in case the slide dam broke through. The ACOE did a fantastic job digging the channel through the slide to get the lake level down and prevent a catastrophe downstream. Survivors of the quake trapped in the canyon went to Hebgen Dam and wrote out SOS in the dirt, eventually to be airlifted out. So violent was the quake that Hebgen Lake and Dam actually tilted several feet, sloshing water from one side to the other like water in a shallow bowl. It overtopped the dam and threatened to take it out, making the threat of downstream flooding even more ominous. There are places where the shore was relocated.... some areas high and dry and others inundated. My grandmother said that night was the scariest night she'd ever had. Your travels to familiar places hopefully inspire all of us to be better stewards of the land and keep it ready for succeeding generations. Unfortunately at Yellowstone (and many other special places), we're loving it to death. Please keep the pristine nature of your videos at the top of the production list so we can appreciate what we have. And BTW, with RVs, it's ALWAYS something. . . All the best.

Thank you for sharing this Stephen. This is the types of recounts of the events that were in the film shown at the visitors center. It has definitely stayed with me.

I graduated from Three Forks High in 1974.

When I was visiting Yellowstone to see my daughter, she was working at Mammouth Lodge for the summer of 2002….She was driving my rental car headed south and we came up to a large buffalo in the middle of the road. We were at the front of the line…in a red rental! However, he looked at us and started walking over to our car. He and I made eye contact! Then he walked over to my side and put his huge head in the window and we both stared at each other! His nose was about 5 inches from my face! He was very calm and I told him he was very beautiful! My daughter did not speak or make any sudden moves! He stayed there in my window for about 3 minutes! I was so thrilled of this encounter! The he walked back to the center of the road and called to his ladies! There must have been over 30 ladies and their babies crossing the road from the wooded area and over to the huge pasture / savannah area! That was a one of a kind, never to be experienced again! I SMELLED HIS BREATH! He was very respectful and I was in awe! I really wanted to touch him, but, thought that may not be a good idea. That was the highlight of my whole life! 😱 🫣 🥰

Love the fact you are living the life you desire in an rv Catherine! Hugs, Rob

[@michaelcapeless3268]

What a good life you've got - thanks for sharing the scenery.

[@veronica0406]

Beautiful footage, thank you for sharing.

[@orangecoloredsky22]

Another great real life Vlog! Thanks for posting....

YOUR FILMING DESERVES AN AWARD! NICELY DONE! THE BALD EAGLES WERE A FILMING BONUS!

[@StevenPendleton]

Beautiful photography!

[@jaynetabb6835]

Great video. Loved seeing the wildlife and the little town of Ennis. Thanks for sharing.

[@dianegenx]

Catherine's love of nature + her expert eye for videography + her peaceful background music + her calming voice and presence = The very best videos on YT! Your videos calm me and inspire me. Thank you 💛

[@mamascott3493]

Well said. I couldn’t agree more

[@sonyalargo8427]

AWW THANKS FOR TAKING US ALONG 🇺🇸☺AWESOME SCENERY 👌HGD GIRL

[@CDNFF82]

I am a first responder with two young children and the last few years have been perticularly difficult. This spring I was diagnosed with anxiety and have chosen to not use medication rather train myself to relax and take time to reflect and it's helping immensely. My wife and I bought a Salem FSX 177BH and have taken to camping with our kids. I am sooo glad I found your channel and I have watched all your videos since you bought the trailer. I can literally feel the stress melting off me while watching your videos. I love your adventures and please keep up the great work. Best of luck and you have a subscriber in me now!

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Ryan. ❤🙏❤

[@RedfernDE]

Sorry for your recent issues Catherine. Its good for us to all know that bringing your adventures to KZbin for us does not come without its struggles.

[@abcsandoval]

The vid on the river was definitely an "Oh my!" moment. It's not always about adventure, but mostly about the scenery. Thanks once again for sharing! :)

[@kurtporter1323]

As they say "life happens " You just have to make the best of it. Love you attitude dear. ♥️

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Yes! Thank you!

[@amandafalmoe5601]

Catherine, we love you please be safe!

[@gregmeagher889]

I could watch this every day.

[@peterandkodiak9762]

Catherine. You are a caring, introspective, good natured Soul who creates these wonder "full" videos. I so appreciate all you do for your viewing audience. I too lived through the 1994 Northridge quake and that was the last straw for me. I finally moved to western Washington State into a rural town and have lived in bliss for the next 17 years here until this place too became gentrified. Excellent content. Thank you. A+

[@susanjackson1458]

What a great day for wildlife viewing!

[@scaredy-cat]

Food looks very tasty, time for dinner after watching video 🤓

[@suzi2570]

I loved just west of Billings for 16 years. Been to Quake lake many times -such a beautiful area. I had a patient who survived that incident. She was a nurse and helped so many people that night. She has since passed away in 2020 ❤️

[@randalltom9750]

Love brussel sprouts, roasted crispy lightly dressed with Italian dressing and dusted with parmesan… Quake Lake, love it, and Bison can be dangerous when in rut… I lived in Twin Bridges for 10 years, love the area!

[@MARKCANEER]

Another Winning video. Thank You for taking me along.🙏👍😎

[@roncaldwell3797]

Things happen I'm sorry for all your issues it it does happen to all of us one way or the other just be safe out there my prayers are with you

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Ron.

[@adriannurse1502]

Some people think that just because you live in a RV and travel that life is just one big vacation. As you showed here it isn't. There are still those details that have to be taken care of. Seeing the Bison and Elk was just amazing. Have a wonderful week.

[@mikellofgren201]

Never been THAT close to a BIG OLE Bison! The Eagles hunting and perching was very cool. Living on the CA central coast being in rain and thunder was pretty sweet.... but that dinner with 'sproutes/etc looked so yummiest! Old friend lives in Absarokee and suffered considerable damage on his ranch, during the river changing course due to the rains/flood. Trailer woes happen to us all. Hang in there. Thank for helping me live vicariously in the wild. Be Careful ans Safe. May God Bless

[@sharondavis8003]

I love Brussel sprouts!! Delicious 😋 Always beautiful views whatever campsite you choose. Loved the wildlife especially the bison 🦬. Good luck with your trailer repair & we will see you next week. Thanks, Cat. ❤️🙋🏼‍♀️👍🏻

[@charleshicks3492]

Another great video in a long line; Yellowstone never tires; beautiful;😎😎😎👍👍👌👌🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@donnapowers920]

Catherine, Thank you for your wonderful videos. The scenery is so majestic at times it brings tears to my eyes and a thankfulness for God's art . You are ablessing. Donna

[@sherriweber7105]

Thdnk you Catherine for making a great video. Nice seeing a zoo of animals on the road from American Bald Eagles to Bisson to elk. So sorry to you need your hit water fixed and you can on the back of your truck amongst other things but glad you were able to get it fixed. Beautiful scenery. Hope you had a great week and got everything fixed and now ready to go. Hope you have a great weekend! Love you too!❤🤗

[@shadowphantom2567]

I was in West Yellowstone in June. I love Montana...beautiful, vast, and peaceful.

[@maggiemayandme1953]

Brussel Sprouts, Bison and Bald Eagles all in June video. What a treat. Thank you as always for a video to warm the heart and show the wonder of nature ( yes Brussel Sprouts are a wonder of nature I think)

[@gklJC]

Beautiful as always. The Eagles were wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

[@creeputney]

Beautiful Bald Eagle shot . . . thank you Cat! Made my morning special . .

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you so much Cree!

[@donharsh1503]

Awesome Catherine I enjoying and watching the food looks great beautiful country too 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃😎❤ AWESOME Catherine ❤❤

[@user-David-Alan]

Take care and be safe. That bison had no vehicle fear which was amazing. Stay well.

[@randallwhitehead5959]

💙❤️💙❤️💙 love yellow stone was there in the 70s great memories.. thanks safe travel ❤️

[@MOTrav]

Beautiful area! Gotta love the National Park System.

[@vinceschulte3907]

We love Brussels sprouts I raise them in Missouri my grandchildren love them.

[@bobculhane4746]

❤️ the bald eagles ! sorry 😞 you have so many little issues between your truck and camper. I hope all the issues are resolved quickly for you Catherine. Hopefully you have a great week thank you for another great 📹 video 🥰

[@keyranger9749]

Thx for another great Sunday morning video!!!!

[@billjennings2705]

Hi Carherine. Roberta here. We just missed you in West Yellowstone, we were there August 9-15-22. Had a awesome time. Hope your water heater gets fixed quickly. And we love Brussels. Peace and blessings.

[@marleneburrows6725]

I love watching. The beautiful of the places you go are amazing.

[@K-LynnTexas]

Beautiful bison, and breathtaking eagles! 🦅❤ Gorgeous skies and entertaining elk! 🦌 Thank you Catherine! Have a safe week! 🙏 I always love the bonus footage at the end! 👍 Especially when you show walking back to get the camera. I hope folks realize how much work goes into producing quality footage every week on the road, trails and mountains. I do! 🌲🌲📷👍 You're the best!! 💯❤🌟

[@roadtriplover.]

Just like in a sticks n bricks, home maintenance is just a necessity. Thanks for this gorgeous view into Yellowstone and into life on the road. On my truck cap (a used truck cap), the gaskets around the rear window are leaking, so I’ve ordered a new gasket and will be installing it when it finally arrives. Being an adult is really a pain sometimes, but it is equally astonishing in a beautiful way.

[@pattya1679]

I love sauteed brussel sprouts and onions, seasoned with season salt. Beautiful day in Yellowstone. It's on my bucket list for sure! Thanks for sharing!

[@markb9347]

Fantastic shot of the bald eagle!

[@MrSparks54]

We've camped at Baker's Hole several times, great little campground. Our water heater ignitor failed too a few weeks ago, just a control board. Replaced it ourselves. Thanks for sharing.

[@paulfroud3920]

So well done Cat! 10 out of 10! I've watched a lot of videos the past 2-3 years and you are among the best as far as "Artistic Expression!" Thank you for that, and I look forward to next Sunday...safe travels Cat.

[@lyndapayne1680]

Have been around Yellowstone many times. Canoed the Madison too. Being a Montana resident makes enjoying the beautiful scenery a welcome perk.

[@colleen9369]

Thank you for sharing your life. Locksmith and all.

[@chrisbuchanan1193]

Really nice campground, especially in West Yellowstone

[@terrymiller1241]

Thank you for the views so nice to see thank you !Hope your trailer is fixed now.

[@stout_tossme7541]

Breakfast, fresh orange juice, and a Cat video. ❤️❤️❤️ Brussel sprouts are amazing!! Sorry, you had issues with the trailer. But the silver lining...camp next to the Maddison River is a plus.

[@lisaemery622]

As soon as you started this video and said where you were and why you were there, I thought “I hope she visits Quake Lake!” Soooooo fascinating and eerie and beautiful!

[@billlottman7339]

Epic capture of the Bald Eagle! Must have been a thrill

[@deerhaven3350]

I love brussel sprouts, but didn't as a kid. Weird how our tastes change over time. As always, your photography is always stunning. Thank you, Catherine, for sharing your life out on the road with all of us.

[@carolleimbach6407]

I love Brussels sprouts with salt, melted butter and fresh squeezed lime juice. Makes them taste like candy to me.

[@stevenrecio3341]

PS I've always loved the buffalo as my favorite animal, glad to see one in your video!

[@ernookum3829]

Beautiful photographs!...and yes I LOVE brussel sprouts too!😉👌👍

[@boonedog1457]

Love Baker's Hole Camp Ground. We camped there right on the Madison River. Great Fly Fishing! Close to restaurants, hiking trails, etc. We were in our campsite, just enjoying the magnificent view of the Yellowstone Park mountain range and over to our right, we watched a herd of Bison cross the river, just upstream. Magnificent memories! Enjoy your time there!

[@nancycronin601]

The video of the eagle was the highlight for me. Hope the repairs went well.

[@frederickwebber7611]

Little cabbages are the best love them.

[@marjiecleveland]

Beautiful area and so cool to see the wildlife! I love Brussel sprouts!

[@lyndaphillips3520]

Loved the music and the wildlife. Always cool to see.

[@billjames9237]

Yes to the sprouts!

[@1DomingosSilva]

Amazing and magical like so many others of your videos. Some footage , some moments.

[@dedwin8930]

Great shot of Bald Eagle!!

[@jillmccoy5733]

I’m planning to do what you are doing next spring. I’m so glad I found your channel. As a solo female, I was wondering if you could talk about your experiences as far as safety is concerned. Everyone is telling me “you can’t do that!” But…yes I can and you are proof! 💜

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Yes you can!! I believe it is safer out here than in any city. Don't let the naysayers stop you. Xo

[@boonedog1457]

@ Jill McCoy, When you travel, just remember"Situational Awareness!" Use your instincts. In my opinion, trust no one and carry a defensive tool and know how to defend yourself. We took a 10,000 mile trip out west, without incident.

[@darrel1954]

I am with you on doing this as well leaving April 1st 2023

[@prpman99]

We full-timed in our motorhome for 7 years and now make month or two longer trips in the winter. The only issue we ever had was in Portland Oregon area, someone stole our bikes while we were staying in a trailer park sort of place in the city. Other than that time have never felt unsafe or need to carry a weapon. As Catherine mentioned probably is safer outside a city. Generally folks look out for each other. If have an uncomfortable feeling about some place, move on, you will be mobile. Go for it and good luck.

[@EJS1970]

I’m trying to talk my husband into doing this

[@theresajoyce7589]

Exciting to see the eagles on the hunt! I often see eagles perched in trees surrounded by cormorants. Btw things break all the time when you own a home too! Best wishes, Catherine! 🍀🙋🏻‍♀️

[@robertupchurch8088]

On the Brussels Sprout question: yes, I often grill them, or bake with onions and a variety of seasonings. One method is to cup up a few slices of bacon, season with salt and pepper, maybe garlic or garlic powder. You can substitute Olive oil and sauté them too. Friends who claim they’d never eat them, say they like them cooked this way.

[@teresadaigle6991]

Yes, your correct Catherine. Things happen and also products not being made as well as years ago makes it hard. Things you buy don’t seem to last or they have problems. Happens in my home too…so just a part of life Now-A-Days. Great drive through Yellowstone. Hope you can get everything repaired soon. Your looking great, It must be your AG1…..😃my husband and I drink that everyday also.

[@WhiteTulip22]

You have such a soothing voice and great photography skills.

[@naytawalker9705]

Thank you 🤗

[@mickeybrumfield764]

Yea brussel sprouts are great especially cooked in butter. Can't get enough of watching bald eagles such a beautiful large bird, they did well in naming it the national bird.

[@bettebuchheit5776]

Nice meeting you briefly at Baker’s Hole Campground! In case anyone is wondering, Catherine is as cordial and friendly in person as she appears to be on her videos. Good luck with the repairs, Catherine!

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you Bette! I’m all fixed up now. Thank you for stopping to say hello. It was nice meeting you!

[@AnnMitt]

I love all of your videos, including this one. You are such a talented photographer.

[@rosemaryromero3567]

Love brussel sprouts!!😋😋Love bussels sprouts with a cream sauce, so delicious.

[@las174]

That was a plenty big adventure!

[@davidg9927]

I still remember riding along those roads on my bike…

[@roadtriplover.]

I haven’t actually stayed in more than 2 national parks. My favorite camping is in state parks. They are always incredibly beautiful, reasonably priced, include great education opportunities and offer a nice break from off-grid living, given most have either electric and/or water, or both. Plus, they offer hot showers in bath houses, which delays need for dumping and reduces need to tank watch.

[@edwardpetersen4309]

There are loads of videos on KZbin, but your b roll shots are like dynamic paintings. They really set the mood especially with the music you attach. Thanks. BTW, I love Brussels Sprouts drizzled with olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper and baked in the oven. I favor the petite variety.

[@warrenmichaelsen2923]

Always enjoy your work and adventures.

[@kellydowns6203]

This has been one of my favorite 'episodes' of Cat's adventures. Not only do you share the reality of living in a travel trailer but you do it with an amazingly positive attitude. It's a "hey, here's what's happening...world just handed me a lemon, so...let's make lemonade" or yummy brussel sprouts.‼️😁 " Oh, and let's make some memories too. Enjoy enjoy the views‼️" Great video. THANKS for sharing.

[@juliegiles334]

I was just in Yellowstone and the Bison in Hayden were amazing. It was possible to go to La Mar with reservations and timed entry. There was a baby Bison carcass and the wolves were coming in periodically to take an easy meal. No matter how many times you see it Yellowstone is always a wonderful adventure!

[@alrichardson7027]

Hello Catherine, I love Yellowstone too. It's just so AMAZING to witness the beauty of this park. I can remember when my brother and I were heading east out of Yellowstone and it was daylight still and then all of a sudden we got stopped by a bison jam...and we sat for about 1 hour just watching this in amazement...as we where trying to get to Cody,WY during what was left of daylight😊😊. Catherine, this was an amazing watch. OUTSTANDING VIDEO👍👍👍👍👍👍.
