You did the right thing getting out of there. Could be a regular thing for those weird assholes to do on weekends. Who knows what they we're planning. It's always a good idea if you can without them knowing it to get their vehicle license plate information, state registered, and plate number just in case you need it. I think they were up to no good. When you go walking away from your jeep to check out your camp site in an area like that, I recommend that you have your piece on you and ready in case you need to protect yourself.

[@RUTHSOFFGRID]

They don't need to install a tracking device. They can follow you on social media. Glad to hear you're packing heat!

Good morning. This is Ted from Texas. I am one of the followers of Wanda hussy and pin in the atlas. I do appreciate seeing all the beautiful scenery in the adventures you go on, all of you. But I do worry tremendously about running into the wrong type of people in the middle of the desert. I am glad most of you guys carry some type of protection. But I think you should carry it on your hip when walking around. Being an ex Law enforcement officer I always have my head on a swivel. Please be safe out there

[@MyNest20]

Could you be jaded by seeing the dark side in your work? I don’t live in fear.

[@itsraining6449]

It seems to me by the way you are describing it that if something had happened it wasn't planned. I would carry at all times even when you think you are alone. I was camping with my son. He was 4 and I am female. We started to go on a hike to the waterfalls. I started to get an uneasy feeling. A terrible feeling and all my alarm bells were going off. I don't remember seeing anyone. I told him that I thought we should turn around because I think the waterfall was too far. He went happily along. I know I made the right decision and it still freaks me out 17 years later.

[@ilovetvanddigitalmedia]

I have traveled alone for years. NEVER say you are alone. ALWAYS say that your significant other is meeting you, right around the corner, should be pulling in any minute, had to go for a potty break etc.; your friends should be back from their hike anytime; you need to run as your family is waiting for you down the road, etc. Also may want to remove your social info off the jeep. Seriously consider open carry when you are out alone with Little One in the middle of nowhere. Also rattlesnack season is upon us, so good to be armed so you both won't get hurt. So glad you have your sidearm!

Yes, I was worried about snakes biting the chihuahua first and then I was concerned she didn't answer as you suggested - my boyfriend should be back soon.

Still, the situation was escalating quickly. Stay safe & aware out there❤

[@jeff7767]

Listen to me...I used to teach classes dealing with these scenarios.......the text book maneuver you should've done would have been, stop & get that gas but then keep driving. You keep driving until you need to stop for gas again! "Eff" where you're going to sleep that night! Cuz there will be no sleep tonight.....ya get it? Security / Safety always comes first! So in this scenario, you flee from the threat...and you just keep fleeing! Nevermind stopping somewhere to re-group...it's not safe, so you drive all night. Plenty of time in the morning to "re-group", figure things out, find a new place to sleep, etc. Good job though packing heat! And for trusting your inner gut! Also very important, don't ever upload videos from where you are currently at! Be happy, be well, be safe!

[@PennyEv4]

Jeepsey did a fantastic job following her instincts and staying safe. It's good advice to flee, but you shouldn't drive in a panic or you could end up out of petrol in the middle of nowhere or so tired you make poor decisions.( especially if you are in an area that has limited phone service). Regrouping in a safe, public area seems like a smart thing to do.

[@donnadiesburg7451]

[@Bekz00]

Solo female vanlifer here and good for you for sticking with your instincts. People have laughed when I said I’ve got “bad vibes” camping at certain places or having conversations with strangers I’ve met while on the road. I use to feel guilty relocating or not hanging out but all it takes is one bad experience to keep you on high alert. Women have never bothered me but it’s always major red flags when men approach me and start asking too many questions about my finances, trip itinerary and what weapons I carry. When I was in Laughlin last year a guy around his late 50s kept talking my ear off and looking at the bottom of my van too, kept asking where I kept my gun and for some reason thought I’d follow him to his land to check it out …..👀 uh no. Stay safe gurrl!!

My thought exactly...check for a tracking device..

[@russellzauner]

if something is transmitting, there are pretty inexpensive detectors to check for them or the police might even do an inspection for you, given the circumstances. If it's just a recorder, then they'll have to find it to retrieve it and if they lose sight of you a GPS tracker is pointless because the tracker is on you and you lost them. If you do find one, take it off and put it on a truck headed to alaska.

Sadly it seems this year these things are happening more. I was camped waayy off trail near Parker. I went out at sunset to check on some things. There was a Dude standing in the Arroyo 4 ft from my van. Tweaker looking guy and that startled the living #hit outta me. I startled him as well 😲 he was clearly scoping my campsite. I had a side arm and then he asked for some water in which way the highway was? Well from where I was camping you can see the highway 2 mi down in the valley so.. I watched him walk off in the opposite direction of the highway further out into the desert and I packed my stuff up and I left. This is a place that I have camped every winter for years. However, ever since that happened it has left me unsettled and not feeling very good about anywhere I park now. Stay safe Nomads, the creepers have left the cities..

Dude looked psychotic but I only noticed once I was in.

Check underneath your jeep to make sure he didn't put an Apple Tracker there. Also think about getting a .380 (fits in palm) that you can have on you at all times.

Why 380 get a full size pistol and keep it on you what ever caliber your comfortable with learn it how to use it how to draw hit what you shoot at etc not only is it fun it helps with eye hand coordination but dexterity visual recognition memory it has a host of other reasons after you get comfortable with one get another different caliber size etc say from a semi auto to a revolver it is amazing the benefits it brings

Remember, though, if someone is camping in a remote, deserted area, bad people can shoot their dog. No one will hear their gunfire. If it's a group like in this case, there's no way anyone can handle all of them. Never, ever put yourself in a situation where there's no cell phone service. Think about getting a satellite phone. This stop was wrong from the start. Good advice from others to take your info off of your jeep, don't upload a video when you're still there, and never engage anyone.

You may have a dash cam front and rear and if not, get some! Even go pros or trail cams to mount on the vehicle on the sides when parked

[@larry785]

You need to take the jeep into the rough country where regular trucks can't go. Also get some camo cover for your jeep. I had a camping tent with Tropentarn pattern, it matched the desert quite well.

[@samanthapressley5254]

I m so glad you got out of there and are safe. I would have thrown up if that happened to me.

[@tedebear108]

It's Ted again. Maybe you should do some more adventures with Wanda hussy and possibly pain in the atlas. Safety in numbers

[@Rebecca-e4k]

Your puppy is precious. Please take good care of her

[@fiestaadventures]

I’m really sorry you had to go through this. Of course, you did the right thing, and it’s understandable that you feel a little shaken. As a fellow solo Boondock camper I truly hope that the experience doesn’t affect your enthusiasm for finding remote places. Best of luck in the future!

[@resinartbycatherine6314]

I'm so glad you made it out of there ASAP

[@timhughes6164]

Good for you that you left, glad to see you and little one are safe❤

[@themusicgaragetmg2330]

First time watching a vid from you, glad you're safe and got out of that, glad to know you're also armed and protected. I'm sorry you had to have that experience, on a positive note, love that rig set up. Hope you have more happy adventures and only run into good folks.

[@hollybrabeau]

We're glad you're safe. You did all the right things including having protection.

[@campernut6183]

Glad your safe! Always trust that gut feeling!

[@TruthQuest4700]

Instinct doesn't fail. I'm glad you're safe! As beautiful as the area appeared on camera I was getting an eerie feeling from it before you told that story. Something felt very off about it.

[@sherylkeib4993]

me too, I felt that from the start. Maybe because it was all so wide open.

[@madcolor]

We once moved our camp miles away because weirdos in a nearby camp were looking at the females in our group similarly at Muley Point. I was never a gun guy, but I am now, especially for car camping.

[@sheilarooney690]

Going there shortly, armed and ready.

[@jeffanon1772]

Google a guy named Gary Michael Hilton....

[@3sadgirl]

I’m glad you got protection ❤always keep it near you . i’m glad your good my girl cause that scary 😮

[@nature10879]

Glad you're safe and always want you to be safe.

[@Tunecat-fx4jl]

Very glad you are safe. I agree always trust your gut feeling. Safe travels ❤

[@joshuajohnson313]

So sorry to hear about your situation & certainly glad to hear you carry a firearm with you. I couldn't imagine the different uneasy feelings you must get throughout your journeys. Its always important to watch your surroundings. Thsts something I've been teaching my daughter who is a young adult now she still practices watching your surroundings & following your gut instincts. Hopefully you were able to find another site with ease.

[@timyak3079]

Double what was said about tracking devices. A cop station may help out with the inspection

[@1jandavis]

great idea.

[@michelebaker6001]

I am glad you got away quickly and safely. I am sorry you had to go through that. Please take care of yourself.❤

[@MarkpaulLewis-x9r]

Stay on your toes and always keep moving

[@robertalonzo5725]

Wife and I overland alone and with appropriate tools and training. We would have bailed on that scene as well. Good decision to bail. Glad you’re safe

[@timjohnson9406]

I'm glad you are ok, always go with your gut feeling. Definitely sounds sketchy, stay safe!!

[@billmccabe6188]

Been watching back to back tonight and here it's 6am and I have had a great time.

[@thebigempty_5792]

A couple years back, I was out exploring in north Texas close to the Oklahoma border. I found a good free camp spot which was part of the LBJ Grasslands around Coffee Mill Lake. I decided to hammock camp and had my 270 degree awning deployed and had my pew pew sitting on my ice chest right next to my hammock. Perfect night, until about 11PM and two trucks and one car rolled up and all the headlights were right on me. They all just sat there for a good 5-10 minutes idling and headlights shining on me. I poked my head out of my mummy bag. It was all dirt roads to get to the spot and the car was very out of place. They finally backed up, then pulled over to another spot. Then I heard one get out and walk to another truck. He was dressed in military type garb and was speaking middle eastern. They had a CB or HAM radio and starting to have a conversation over the radio. I could hear the other person replying in same language. I slowly got dressed and went over to my drivers door to get my extra ammo. magazine and was trying to plan for my escape in case things went south. I couldn't just jump in my vehicle and go because of the awning. I had the interior lights disabled for when opening the doors, so I just hunkered down behind the door. I had 30 rounds and my back was to the lake. I was blocked in. Fortunately, after about 30 minutes and the trucks/car never shutting off their engines and lots of conversation over their radio in some middle eastern language, they all left. As soon as it was clear, I packed up and drove home. I got home at 2-3AM and was pretty shaken up. To this day, I wonder if they saw my handgun and were sizing up the situation. It could have been that I was in their meeting place and interrupting their plans. It was that same "feeling" and intuition you had.

[@wanderingjeepsy]

Wow!😔

[@irmalujan1723]

That sounds very suspicious 😳

[@Rexodus014]

"Safety in Numbers" ... Especially when in remote locations. Especially when overnight camping. Especially when a single woman. Especially when emergency contacts are remote. Safer proximity to others at night... Whether in an established campground or a library parking lot. Wandering Jeepsy wanderlust by day... is a Safer way. Know that you're not afraid to use the Spray, the Knife or the Gun on an instant notice... "Things can happen faster than you can imagine." Be Safe... To Be Well. Happy Trails...! 😉👍

[@gregzeigler6244]

That is one reason i have my drone to scout out the area i want to camp. I don't like having neighbors for that very reason. I don't trust people when camping. Glad you and little one made it out of that situation safely. Think about getting some camouflage netting to help hide your rig. Another good idea is getting to your site a couple hours before sunset. Usually people ain't moving around that close to sunset

[@gladyswilson7540]

I am so sorry that happened to you. I am glad you trusted your gut.

[@jeepinwithjulia]

I was wondering if you had any self protection items. Glad you do and listen to your gut! Weird for 3 guys to be in 1 truck.

[@durango8882]

Pervs

[@cdrying]

Yikes! Stay safe. I feel so nervous these days about being alone, but I love solitude so much, so it's worth the risk for me. I'm glad you have ample protection. Keep up the good work on delivering great videos😊.
