I like your video, few of us can look back on our twenties and come anywhere close to the memories you'll have.

[@TheBrandonn]

oh god, that just made me realize from now on I'll be "looking back at my twenties" eww. I'm not 30, I'm just not, ok?

I love how you find such magical places to take a dip, bathing in nature is so invigorating 😊

[@melav1407]

This girl is crazy cool and brave. I am glad she knows what not to be challenged like that steep mountain with the white rope. That was good footage of her climbing up that mountain top:)

[@michelelapham1215]

You are an amazing woman! What an adventure! Thank you for sharing!❤

[@martyb.1291]

Awesome video EMMA AND BUSBUS ON THE WEST COAST beautiful views 👍👍

[@dwalker6868]

I’m so glad you’re OK. I was having a heart attack with you. Beautiful spot though glad you enjoyed your cold dip. Thank you for sharing. Stay blessed.

[@tomrar260]

the scary clank is ok. its just the transmission getting unlocked from the park position while under vehicle weight.

[@barbaratillinghast6550]

Those are called Flowers 😋 love ya!

[@Robert-qt9lg]

you climbed down beautifully I'm so glad you were safe looks very treacherous but at least someone had the sense to put that rope up there OMG can you imagine climbing down without a rope wow

[@carmenburgess8589]

I believe that the flower is a tiger lily. Great journey! Thanks!

[@Emma-and-BusBus]

THANK YOUUU

[@dekunutsocarina]

You get the best footage of your travels. I can’t wait till this channel grows bigger. ✌🏽

Hey Emma!!!! omg i just love watching your videos!! you're so brave! and those views are amazing! thank you for sharing your journey!

[@Emma-and-BusBus]

AHHHH ILYSM ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for your compliments!!!

[@dalehead5397]

I was hoping you would back up and try again and get out and I was so happy you did! I think that horrible Klanke sound was just your drive train reingageing normally after the tire spinning.

[@NomadicPride]

Love that you left your hat on when you went for a dip!

[@arugula22]

Awesome spot! Thanks for sharing! I swear sometimes coming down is harder. I use trekking poles to help. Stay well!

[@dalehead5397]

You are a real Gem. Thank you for Sharing.

[@TylerMalad]

Hi Emma, it's been a while since I last watched a vid! That view of Crescent Lake & the Pacific Ocean at the peak of your hike looked amazing!

[@DebCamPhoto]

The orange flower you asked about is a turks cap lily. Beautiful

[@lvanasse2]

THAT TREE ❤❤❤❤❤

[@tammy6992]

Yeah, good seeing you taking care of coming downhill very slippery

[@English_Wanderer]

Cracking vid such a lovely spot. Love how real you keep them. Bet your heart skipped a few beats when you got “stuck” lol take care.

WOW Omgosh Emma,you really got my heart racing ,its winter here where I am, and I was sweating watching you climb that mountain😳🥺but girl you did it 😁congrats your sooo cool😎no way on gods earth would you catch me even contemplating it ,I know coward😰.The noise you heard was just your front fender scraping the ground nothing to worry about your all good ,at least you had a cold plunge, yes I think that was a good tree👍May I suggest a cargo box on top of your car and get some MaxTracks (recovery tracks) for when you get into those tricky situations for peace of mind .Thankyou for an awesome adventure Take Care Stay Safe ❤From Me V Aus God Bless 🙏🤗

[@Emily_Entropy]

I love how that awning on BusBus provides so much real-estate for you! You seem so naturally relaxed in the forest.

[@landy531]

WOW!!! That thumb nail could sell a lot. 😉

[@nereidgreen6653]

Cold 🥶 plunge anyone? You are way too adventurous for me. Enjoy your travels with BusBus! 🚌

Damn, that _is_ a _good_ tree!

[@bekahkropp5441]

Awh, sweet Emma ❤ what an amazing life you live. Thanks for sharing your life and the beauty of our country.

[@espnmk]

Emma that was a sketchy climb and the peak eek! but the scenery from up there amazeballs can't be beat, well yes it can you've taking us to some cool spots. Noise you heard on the transmission is from shifting usually out of park a lot of pressure on what is called the parking pawl, it's a metal lever that catches in between gears and when parked in grade it will make a awful metal to metal clank best thing to do when you park in grade is apply parking break first and than place car or transmission in park.

[@stuffilike4498]

Descending is usually more dangerous than ascending. More points of contact on the earth is safer, so you end up head up the climb, chest to the earth and move one limb at a time down the climb to keep your COG lower. You're on your own, so safety first. Similar thing with the vehicle, you could always try reversing out of your pickle to keep weight on the drive axle but you hot rodded it out of there with style!🚀

[@karenward3542]

I must say your so blessed to do what you do get to see some beautiful amazing places love to do what you thanks for sharing your videos hike safe ❤

omggggg gorgeous! dont think i ever liked a 360 shot until you got the climb, AMAZING

[@sawyerallen7893]

ok the alarm sound is SUCH a nice touch

[@ievamichna7173]

That view is stunning 😍

[@janef.spicer-locante5731]

😂Its an An Adventure Movie 🎉❤, awesome Emma.... I watched every last second of this video like this😗🤔😟😮🥴😲....🤣....holding my Breath with each step, and thinking 💭 about all the thought and Positioning that goes in to recording the entire hike.... Looks like you can rest stop at a few points on the Rope Climb, and turn back if you know it's too far in the Woods once you get there. Then when the Passenger Side Rear Tire was suspended in mid-air 😳 omg, 🤭 so Get Out as soon as you realize it's unlevel for safety.... A Jeep might take it better. Thank you for the video Emma!!!! Great Explore.

[@joanndavis4843]

Another good one 👍! That steep climb up to Cresent Lake Lookout, pulling yourself up on a rope, was pretty thrilling to watch. Coming down, I was kinda nervous until you finally got down to Firma Terra. I wish you would use your no-hands camera more often though. Those narrow foot paths take agility and both hands, my dear. I say this out of concern because you must know all your viewers adore you Emma. And good call not trying Storm King lookout, peak, whatever that was. Btw, I've never seen rice prepared with the lid askew. I think I'll try it, and maybe my rice will turn out ok, for once😉.

[@dfuk66]

I think they are poisness killed me😂

[@elledeetoo]

Not sure what phone you have, but iPhone will identify flowers if you take a pic of them, then tap in saved photos and swipe up! You and your vids are charming, thank you for sharing them!

[@alliecatstanz34]

Highly recommend the mountain loop area in Mt Baker-Snoqualmie if you haven't been yet! Love the content and Washington exploration inspiration!

[@deshawniskeng-mixedmediatv]

That clink noise you heard was the pin that locks your car in park when a vehicle is positioned like that with all the weight shifted on it its hard on the pin and makes it harder to pop out of gear which can result in bending or severely damaging the pin but it should be ok long as it doesn't become a habit lol

[@beckym4550]

Great video!

[@Bum_Hip]

Just found your channel. You are so bold, and cute, and pretty, and quirky, and athletic, and cool! Looking forward to more of your adventures, weather they be harrowing like this one, or more mundane, I’m sure they will be interesting. Safe travels!

The orange flowers are a martagon lily.

Lol you deserve to be famous you crack me up ❤❤❤ love your videos

[@kierstynsaoirse]

girrllll I went for a 2 hour hike recently to prepare myself for a 4 hour one I've been wanting to do for so long and I was so tired at the end. you must be in insane shape, I admire your stamina :o

[@BigIronTexas]

The clunk was just gear tension within your transmission. Ideally you would put it in park and engage your parking brake whenever you're on an incline or decline to avoid _the clunk_

[@jocastil1968]

Your early morning face cracks me up! lol !

[@maddy7418]

I was not expecting the rope up to be unsecured! I probably would have tried to go down forward facing but back works too. As long as you’re taking baby steps and have multiple points of contact you can do whatever works best for you! Terrain like that is tricky especially when the ground is loose. The view was amazing though! Makes me miss the PNW

[@49Ljackson]

Wow. ❤❤❤

[@tammy6992]

Definitely that crab crawl you did was something that a lot of people have to resort to. I have in Sedona coming down the backside of Bell rock. Yeah crab crawl on your butt lol.

[@willythewave]

I had to live in my car once in the winter when I was working. It was the most miserable existence ever. I honestly don`t know how anyone could enjoy this lifestyle. I`m not knocking you, I`m just saying it wasn`t for me. Been there done that. But I really enjoy watching your videos. I wish all your days to be blessed. :)

[@sammylaguna1388]

Womderful trip!

[@thewaterheaterfactory]

Nice ! Keep it up!! You got this!

[@atlanticx100]

I am surprised you did not use gloves for the ropes. Beautiful views.

[@Robert-qt9lg]

somebody said lantana on the flowers but I don't know 🥀 the clank may have just been if you didn't have your park brake on when you got out you always want to use the park brake of course but remember these vehicles have very low clearance so even a small rise like that can be dangerous the vehicle can bottom out easily

[@cheyenneyakima8695]

Young Lady, you might want to get some 2" inch blocks put on your car so you can be able to clear those roads out in the middle of nowhere. I do part time van life in my Ford Excursion and I had it lifted 3" inches. Just a thought for a nice adventurous young lady. Cheyenne

Emma, I love your adventurous videos. You are so fearless and so inspiring. I am curious to ask when you were on the rope trail was someone there filming or some type of hands free camera? 🤩

[@maddy7418]

That metal sound hits toooo close to home. My dog and I were on a FSR three weeks ago driving slow like a snail per usual. We go slow for the unkind peeps whom drive 40mph around blind corners. Unfortunately one of these unkind and selfish people came around a particularly rough stretch as I was. I was forced to quickly correct myself into a series of hellacious potholes. I heard a metal clank sound and my stomach dropped. My car seemed okay so we kept on going to the trail head. My car was indeed not okay. On the way back I started scraping on stretches I went over fine in the past. My car started getting louder so I popped out to check underneath. I broke a bracket on my exhaust pipe and it fell down 😭 It was a white knuckled drive back with some tears, and I heard some more metal clank and fall when I got on the pavement. A family member came to check it out the next day and was shocked to find I cracked an important part that I forgot the name of in two… It was literally just hanging from the O2 censors. And of course my whole exhaust muffler situation was hanging down. We got my car mostly fixed, however I’m without a muffler for now. It is beyond horrid to drive as it’s so loud and vibrates the entire interior of my car. It has been a very humbling experience.

[@Emma-and-BusBus]

yes this is the stuff of nightmares OMG

[@D...M...A...]
