Solo Camping With Rattlesnakes In The Grand Canyon

Just a tip my friend, but never camp on a riverbed or near one. It can rain 100 miles away and come flooding you in seconds and you would never know. Awesome vid and keep up the good work

[@JimYeats]

There are something like 13 river companies that take thousands upon thousands of people down the Colorado river in the Grand Canyon every year and they camp on the beach every night. You certainly wouldn’t want to sleep in a slot canyon or a wash susceptible to flash flooding, but with some normal common sense, checking the weather, and knowing what season you’re in, its as safe anything that’s fun to do.

[@blissmadness9264]

@@JimYeats I understand your perspective, but even if the weather seems nice to you in that area it does not mean it is in all the areas that connect to that river. Colorado River feeds from a very wide range and any of those areas can level out at any moment. It's common sense to never camp near a river or rover basin for this fact. I'm not sure what touring company you are speaking of because I am an AZ native and have been on that very river and the camps are never alongside the river. They are a good 50 feet away. I simply wanted him to be cautious and take this into hand any time he is near a river. Even if the current one he was at had a smaller statistic of flooding he should not get comfortable and do it with other rivers

[@ezzzyb7469]

I was thinking the same thing

It's the Colorado River, not the Virgin River through Zion NP.

[@kristinlong2278]

[@evilapple21]

The worst part about rattlesnakes is if the weather is nice, theyre out. Oh and they will chase you and swim fast af. And almost every single time ive seen one, theres been a grown man trying to mess with it. So glad Mav made it through that nap and will be wearing boots next time!!! I was sweating bullets! Hes always so calm, i love these videos.

[@marcregnier5298]

When he said they was a "moat" between him and the snakes i was like.... uhhh no. There isnt. Lol. They are fast as shit. This whole video gave me anxiety

Really they swim!! We don’t have snakes in our country.

[@IINyanCatII]

As a person whom lives in Arizona and deals with rattlesnakes they aren’t very aggressive snakes unless messed with, if you leave them alone they’ll leave you alone. :)

[@evilapple21]

@@IINyanCatII rattlesnakes strike when startled. They sense heat. I have been chased and watched people be chased and lunged at. Ive lived in phoenix or flagstaff or sedona most of my life, was born here, as were my parents and both sets of grandparents. But hey yeah go off lol.

[@jayce_venom]

Hi, I work with, breed and keep Rattlesnakes. I've worked with thousands of them. Snakes, especially rattlesnakes don't "chase" anyone, They're defensive animals about their territory and where they live and breed. Specifically the ones seen here are Speckled Rattlesnakes that retain fairly calm demeanors when left alone. You can be born somewhere all you want but that doesn't mean you're knowledgeable about the animals. They do strike when startled, just as any human can punch or even shoot someone when startled. They have a right to defend themselves and their homes. Quit fear mongering about animals that have a right to exist and be where they are naturally from.

“Okay, so now I’m safe on my island”. Being from Florida, I’m thinking bout that rattlesnake we saw go for a swim at the beach one time. He beat us to the water, and kept on going. Sorry to burst your bubble Mav. 🥰

[@Camoboy70]

Yep, he's safe on his moat, until one of those slitherins decides to swim it and visit lol. There was a young lady in Wyoming who was water skiing and went through a ball of rattlesnakes, that killed her! I knew the diver who recovered her body and learned that day that rattlesnakes do in fact swim quite well.

[@Camoboy70]

@Brandy Sutherland that was around 2000 in Wyoming at Boysen reservoir

[@Camoboy70]

@Brandy Sutherland correction....I was told about it by him in 2000, I had just moved there so I'm not sure when the actual incident happened but it was at Boysen reservoir. They told me about it while we were out there water-skiing ourselves. He made good money for that dive!

[@Camoboy70]

@Brandy Sutherland no problem, yeah I didn't find it online either but was told how much he was paid and that just led into other conversation. The story creeped me out, I mean imagine you're water-skiing and bam, out of nowhere not only did you hit something to take you down but then you're immediately attacked by it as well. That weighed heavily on my mind while I was at that very reservoir skiing and knee boarding! And these weren't the kinds of guys to tell stories to rattle your cage, they were paramedics and firefighters and life flight pilots who were talking mostly amongst themselves and I was connected by being the boyfriend of one. Dinner conversations were pretty interesting, to say the least.

[@Camoboy70]

@Brandy Sutherland and yeah, I ran into my fill of rattlesnakes every part of Wyoming i lived in. You just couldn't get away from them

[@LiveOutLoud321]

I’m also from Minnesota and an experienced backpacker! You’ve probably already been told this by now, but you can filter that water in front of you. If you filter water, you don’t have to carry quite as much. There are all kinds of water filters on the market. I like the Sawyer Squeeze Mini because it’s inexpensive and lightweight. 😊

[@gpaje]

How's your spare tire situation Mav, if you are going deep into some of these trails alone, makes sure you have a full size spare (that matches your Raptor wheels/tires). If you can't carry a 2nd spare somewhere, make sure to have a tire repair kit and inflation system. A lot of tow companies won't go into a dirt road for recovery, the off-road tow companies are rare and expensive.

This looks almost exactly like the movie, "into the wild",but the roles are reversed. Even looks like where they filmed the grand canyon scene.

[@JrsSd619]

hey thats true hah

[@davidfischer1971]

i thought exactly the same, but it's different from what i can see. i guess there are many spots looking like this at the grand canyon. into the wild is the best movie ever.

[@Lilyyloll]

dude i thought the same thing! where chris saw the topless girl and dude XD

[@NomadC905]

@@davidfischer1971 It totally looks like the same place. The video is just missing the topless girl to welcome MAV on the beach lol.

[@danielueblacker9118]

Mav loves that movie. One excellent point is due to his upbringing and his own values he seems at a happy place in life.

Dude your music taste is incredible, bit of Point North in this vid, caught some Alexisonfire in one of the last vids, love it!

Too funny MAV 🤣 😆 You sound like my husband "L.J.".... Happy too see you go.... didn't wanna share your lil. Piece of Paradise Camp Area..... wow.... crazzzzy same high school... what a small world 🌎 😎👍👍

[@Elkaygee320]

OMG YOUTH! Love it. Keep on, dude.

[@RonInAVan]

Now I’ve got to buy some of them food packs, they actually looked good. I love how Mav is somewhat a minimalist, living life with very little and enjoying it. When I saw that rattlesnake I was thinking barbecue snake and Hat band with rattlers. Mav’s the outdoorsman.

[@josephreed8176]

Mav, would highly recommend a sawyer squeeze water filter system for backpacking. You don't need to lug too much water with you or be worried about running out especially if you're going somewhere with freshwater available (like any fishing backpack location you visit).

[@briansimpkins985]

the thing is with grand canyon area and the colorado river is a lot of silt so even a purifier really cant help to get the silt out of the water and also clogs ur filter way quicker

[@keithl2110]

It's worth whatever it costs to not get Giardia infection or worse in nature alone. Even a life straw is like 20-25 bucks, now they sell a bag and hose that make the lifestraw a decent camp setup. Always have a water filtration system and purification tablets as a back up. Always have a back up. When enjoying the outdoors luck favors the prepared, things break or get lost, 3 is 2, 2 is 1 and 1 is none.

i was out there filling a 2L bladder with a smart water bottle and a sawyer and it was not fun :// gravity filter is the way to go in my opinion

[@josephreed8176]

@@jmac732 the sawyer filter can gravity filter with a different bag then the one that comes with. Could also save Mav money from buying water at the store.

[@justinmoraal4764]

My brother, my best friend and I went on a 9 day hike on the Bruce Trail in southern Ontario and we all brought 2 2L smart water bottles and we had a sawyer squeeze and a sawyer mini. they were pretty good for the 9 days, granted, southern Ontario has some pretty clean water in the streams and lakes.

Nothing like a Mav adventure to lift your spirits when your stuck in a 5km lockdown.

[@danielueblacker9118]

when he use to post on a Sunday, I would consider that me going to Church....

Anyone else see that spirit leave that back of his truck at 3:14 lmfao?

It looks peaceful and Tranquil. Would be relaxing all around.

Stay safe Mav! Love the content, You did well this video!!

[@JasonK716]

Ok...after buying stickers a couple weeks back while buzzed, today I was just buzzed up enough (after you mentioned your site on the video) to head over to it and buy a black beanie. Todays lesson, watch your videos sober...lol

Mav...... You were at the bottom of the canyon and you didn't stay awake to see the best sky view of stars in the country. Maybe it's just me but that's the best part of the hike!! Keep on truckin!!

I’ve watched Mav for years now, no clue how I didn’t see this video until now.

[@zubi8573]

Mav has the right amount of quirkiness,personality and just gives of good vibes🤟. Dont get me started on his awesome well edited adventures⛰
