one of my favorite camping spots

[@bryans8656]

I have a lot of respect for campers who leave sites better than they found them, thanks for that.

[@soimsha.]

My dad was always like that

[@stevevp2002]

LOL, funniest Rosa moment ever when you zoom in on the sign, and then zoom back out and the unexpected and emphatic middle finger appears. I know the feeling, so frustrating and angering when things go that way!!

[@BigV96220]

🤣🤣🤣same❤

[@CookingAroundTheWorld]

I just love the natural beauty of the environments you camp in. Every single place you go to is stunning. Thank for showing us all parts of America most people miss.

[@lifeinmyelement]

America really is a beautiful place. I'm glad I get to share it with you guys 🥰

[@harrythehammer]

@@lifeinmyelement I just started watching your videos. They are awesome. I’m thinking about doing this nomadic thing.

[@brad571]

This life you share here shows how peaceful living on the road can be. I love that for you. Stay safe out there!

[@lifeinmyelement]

It definitely has its good and bad moments. But I can't give it up ❤️

Woody Guthrie's song "This Land is Your Land" has a line for you: Was a big high wall there that tried to stop me a sign was painted, said private property but on the back side it didn't say nothin' that side was made for you and me.

[@lifeinmyelement]

You couldn't have picked a better line for me. I love that ❤️

I love watching your videos! Covid ruined everything from 24 hour Walmart’s, to free camping and over night stays anywhere. Ruined everything. 😑 So glad you’re still able to find such amazing, safe places to sleep! Thanks for the amazing adventures Rosa!

[@debbiedornfeld8596]

I love how you leave campsites better than when you arrive.

[@wildernesshermit]

We do love the places you travel to and appreciate the great video work. With the popularity of Van Life I imagine we'll be seeing more "Day Use Only" signs.

[@darlenemoak63]

Absolutely beautiful campsite. I think one of the reasons that so many places are putting "day use only" up is that people don't clean up after themselves.I see this on other people's channels. I'm glad you found a spot! And thank you for showing me how to make a fire. Believe it or not, I'm 68 & that just isn't a skill set that I've acquired. Definitely important to have dry kindling & dry firewood; my recent attempts in West Virginia involved soggy firewood. I succeeded at burning a lot of fire-starter bricks. And I love that oatmeal, one of my favorites! Keep on rolling, Rosa!!

[@clintgilchrest1019]

Beautiful scenery.... would be awesome to wake up and sip coffee looking at that landscape.....

Very good Rosa, keep looking after yourself. ❤😮

[@RayRay-lj1vc]

Beautiful and very very well made.

[@JohnnyTran1226]

So fresh and so clean!😊😊😊

[@ronbannon]

I knew you were in Lone Pine when you gathered water from that stream. My wife and I also needed a shower when we were there, and we bathed directly in that stream. Wow, it's frigid cold water! It was summer, and the air temp was enough to fry an egg. Close by are some pretty neat hot springs (west side of 395) and a bubbling water hole (east side of 395). It's a really wonderful area.

[@johnelliott5923]

I would eat there every day!!! Love your channel!

[@JR-wz9zq]

Should get a portable shower. Lots of different kinds out there, they work great.

[@lifeinmyelement]

I've tried a couple different ones over the years but somehow dumping water over my head is my favorite method lol

[@Zen_walker]

Great Spot! Reminds me of Joshua Tree rock formations.

[@mikemurphymagic]

Thanks Rosa! I can’t believe I’ve passed by this gem a dozen times and never stopped! I got there at dusk, and you answered so quick! Found Movie Road, flipped off a whole lotta no-camping signs (haha!) and ended up paying $14 for a site near town. Wildflowers are out. Drove all the way down Movie Road! Stunning views and wildflower pictures! The Alabama Hills and the manager at Subway told me to say hi to you. :) Super fun! See ya down the road!

[@lifeinmyelement]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it but I'm so sorry you had to pay for camping! The free spots fill up so fast now. Ahhh can't believe you visited the Subway lol so much fun ❤️

Such great Wisdom

[@Nandini_1.]

Views from the drone, absolutely stunning ❤. Watching the fire from your car a must but also safe as you are in the middle of nowhere. Keep safe ❤️🇬🇧 ps, watched another channel about carlife. That vlogger used a solar bag to warm up her shower water, who knew these things existed. Learning so much.

[@lifeinmyelement]

Yes! I always make sure the fire is out before I go to sleep 🥰 and I used to have a solar shower but it took to long to heart up. They are really good if you have patience though!!

[@victoriaaydelott6187]

Pretty location. Looks a tad bit like Joshua Tree. Love your videos!

[@oriontaylor2578]

I've been very curious about this van life and you seem very experienced at it

[@DannyHustle]

HOT TIP! You can get bagged ice cheap-cheap at fast food places. McDonald's 🍔 and Sonic for sure. Most I’ve had to pay is $2.99 a bag and you can use it for drinks. 👍 I hope this helps. $6.50 is steep!

[@lifeinmyelement]

It's really just a small town thing. If I buy ice in the city it's fine but small towns always have crazy prices!

[@davidmachado432]

Worked at the Subway at Lone Pine for a few months??? I stayed at the hotel for three days with a rented car. That place was a movie set for many cowboy heroes I grew up with in the 40's and 50s

I recently introduced my girlfriend to the camping areas along the 395. We love the Alabama hills! I was very sad to find that all of the free BLM campgrounds that my older friend, "Pops", introduced me to were now pay only. We camp on the south side of the Mount Whitney road. Not very good reception for our phones, but still beautiful views!

[@Miguel-r3r1x]

black pvc pipe will give you hot water for a good shower just let it warm up in the sun all day and do the shower late afternoon before the water cools down at days end

I haven’t been to Alabama Hills yet but it looks beautiful there, I stay out in the San Bernardino area the brothers I’ve been driving off the 395 is all the way up to Ridgecrest, thank you for sharing this video I really enjoyed it didn’t know that you had a drone I really enjoyed your footage, until next time
