[@SUVRVing]

Thanks for watching! And yes, you guys will be seeing a bit more Cassie on the channel this year. We have a couple other trips planned throughout the year, so stay tuned!. And don't forget to follow along on Instagram (@SUVRVing) if you haven't already: instagram.com/suvrving/ -Tristan

[@curtiswilburn7357]

Love the sights and views, Tristan you do a wonderful job shooting the sights and very informative about the areas. Nice having Cassie there too and it would not matter what Cassie would say or do because it shows how great and enjoyable you guys are. I really want to see these areas some day, to explore is a dream, and for now I do that through videos. Keep up the excellent work-play.

[@cbw382]

While I am a faithful 'watcher', this video is my favorite after Wind River. Nice to see everyone together. Thank you for your videos - they're so calming (to me!) and informative. I look forward to them all! ❤

[@Victor47930]

Best one yet, and I’ve been a long time viewer. Cassie represents most of us who have never been to those places either - so it’s normal if she’s speechless too.

[@debmann5168]

One thing I will say is that when Cassie speaks she is super charming no matter what she says. She adds to the beauty and fun of your videos. Nice to see you two enjoying such beautiful country together.

[@JamieMcCracken]

Cassie selfie vlogging = THE BEST PART! 😎🤩 Quite the change up from the normal videos, but love these because they're so genuine. 🥹 Great stuff as always, Tristan!

[@stevethompson8154]

I enjoyed this one very much.. Reminded me of some of the places I've taken my wife. We have the memories and the words at some point become meaningless BUT the expression on her face is priceless. It is part of the bond that has kept us going strong after 44 years. I wish you and your wife as much joy as we have.

[@bradfordleroy3527]

My favorite part of this video, is the constant smiles, on both your faces. A happy couple in love, is as beautiful as the scenic wonders you visited. You are a charming pair of dang, fine folks. Hair travels. 🤸🚙

[@dexaminer6047]

I think one day this may be one of your favorite videos you ever posted. I enjoyed it, but I can't help but think how much value your time together must add for you as a couple.

[@willar7179]

My favorite part was Cassie’s joy as she spoke to the camera about the beauty she had seen and how much she was enjoying the trip. She speaks so naturally to the camera that it’s hard to believe she hasn’t been doing it for years. And Bowser is just so cute.

[@TomReichner]

at 13:40, Cassie's bagel mishap, and her reaction to it, are priceless!

[@SUVRVing]

I couldn't stop laughing, and my hands were shaking as I was holding the camera 😄

[@keithbrookshire]

It's great to see you and Cassie traveling together.

[@KAL5370]

She is what connects us (non experts) to the video. Were looking at things through her eyes as well as your knowledge and experience. It's a good combo

[@RicG.]

Always great to see lovely Cassie and cute little Bowser! 👍 😊

[@steveholley9508]

It cracked me up when cassie said butt scoop

[@charlieswearingen500]

Seeing you enjoy Cassie's company this trip is great. I was recently widowed after 45 years together, and I miss those times so much. God bless...

[@dixielambrecht7009]

I'm so glad Cassie got to see Fishers towers and Arches. Awesome landscape. You guys make a delightful couple.

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks 😁

[@markalan7552]

Cassie, be brave. Seriously. A fresh perspective adds the wonder you feel. Please share and go again. You are appreciated.

[@superdave1949]

It's really great to see Cassie and Bowser again. I love how the beauty of Utah touched Cassie into having more to say than in all her previous appearances combined! A screen grab at around 18:45 would make an awesome portrait. Just an all-around great video!

[@QuietRide113]

Cool! The band is back together! You guys are an awesome family.

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks! We're happy together 😁

[@geomark8851]

My wife and I got to experience a snow squall sweeping across the river canyon at Dead Horse Point. It was epic and we had the park all to ourselves which made it even more special.

[@bradthompson9400]

As I'm watching this, I am in the Green River/Rock Springs area and loving it. I enjoyed Moab (and surrounding area) and Grand Junction. I left NC (retired 2/8) on Valentine's Day and have been exploring the country. I really don't want to leave WY. It's good to see your family and having Cassie in your video. Thanks for all you do (and for the GPS coordinates which I have used quite a lot). Keep 'em coming.

[@bikingal4283]

congrats... sounds like someone settled right into retirement the correct way.. good for you

[@sharlenevowels4125]

Thank you Casey for sharing this time in Moab park. We love Tristan and his videos an d appreciate your willingness to share his time with us.❤

[@aaroncollins826]

I have to agree with commenters…Cassie adds beauty and charm to every video she appears in, no matter how much or little she has to say. What a doll.

[@cherylmiller-day5932]

Great to see Cassie & Bowser. I agree with Cassie. . . BEAUTIFUL!! Loved the photos at th end. You're a great couple ❤

[@MsQ275]

they are really sweet!

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks for the kind words! 😁

[@barb108]

I’m a New Englander and I can totally relate to Cassie’s awe of the landscapes in Utah because I get the same feeling whenever I’m in that area. I enjoyed seeing it through her eyes. Nice still photos at the end.

[@nanabananainavana7534]

My favorite part was hearing the joy in Cassie’s voice as she shared her experience of the beautiful places you went on this trip. And seeing Bowser! It was really a very uplifting video and I’m so glad you had Cassie and Bowser join you so it became YOUR place together now.

[@jeffreycarter3503]

Cassie, you did great, especially in the monologue at 20:00; in my opinion, a novice, like yourself, often has much more interesting comments, opinions, selections, favorites, or whatever, than an experienced person like Tristan... Because WE the audience are novices also, we enjoy the stuff that the experienced person thinks is mundane, old hat. So what you think, the view that you like, is as much of interest as what Tristan thinks, and maybe more sometimes. Thanks for taking part, nice to see you and hear you. I know that being self conscious in front of the camera is a challenge, you did great, and the only way to find it easier is to do it, do it, do it. Thanks for sharing. Great place obviously...

[@ryansryans2340]

Your always so upbeat and positive in your videos, but its nice to see you gleaming when cassie joins your adventures. Ive tread all over the junction/moab region, even got married at red cliffs lodge by castle valley. Your videos always bring the truly vast reality of that area to perspective. Not easy to accomplish on video. Good to see you guys together. Look forward to more of this.

[@jsmith7898]

Tristan, MORE, MORE, MORE ! Bring Cassie also ! Seeing it all thru her eyes is so wonderful ! We see what she sees thru her eye and perspective ! Hooray ‼️🎉❤😂🎉❤

[@sharondavis8003]

Tristan, I agree with Cassie. With so many sights surrounding you at once it’s hard to speak about one without missing out on the next. Great trip😊 Hello to Cassie & Bowser. 🙋🏼‍♀️👍🏻⛰️

[@kblaine123]

The content of this channel NEVER gets old ! Cheers.

[@SUVRVing]

Thank you! I do try to mix things up and keep it interesting 😁

[@samanthadodd8112]

Love seeing Cass. Most beautiful scenery was Cass holding Bosier and her wind blowing. So glad u guys enjoyed urselves. Love how Cass see things, she like me in total awe.

[@crazybill49]

I enjoyed seeing Cassie and hearing her impressions of the area. She is a pretty and well spoken young lady. I look forward to seeing her in more of your videos. The shots including her gave a good sense of scale that would have been lacking without her. Good job both of you.

[@robertross2596]

WOWZER! Happy to see Cassie & Bowser! What a great trip to Dinosaur land & Moab...so great to see you back in Arches. I have my SUV packed up for a car camp trip to upstate NY (from Pennsylvania) for the total eclipse. This is my first camping trip in almost 20 years! At 75 I'm looking forward to the adventure...stay well my friend.

[@stillkicking8693]

It’s nice that these moments together will last a lifetime and she adds a beautiful addition to your trip.

[@tm8747]

the BOSS IS BACK!!!!! she needs to be on all adventures

[@bertkelly7650]

Cassie, Yay! Glad you could get her out and about. Scenery was just as special.Thanks!

[@johnd746]

Really nice to see you traveling with Cassie, and were able to show her some of the sites that you see all the time.

[@BrazenHead76]

I vote for more videos with Cassie! She did great!

[@stevehanisch8510]

If you ever decide to have a family, your kids will really love having this video once they're grown and on their own.

[@propwash66]

Cassie gives my wife inspiration to go adventure with me

[@jsmith7898]

I really like the drone shots that follow you as you drive down the roadway ! I love seeing the different perspectives ‼️

[@user-vv9xl6kd3o]

Such a pleasure to see Cassi again. I wish you could take more trips together like this. It made my day.❤

[@carolpadgett8618]

Thanks Cassie, for giving us your experiences to all the many sites. We all enjoy Tristan! but it was wonderful to have you along. It would be great to have an update on your home transformation. Always enjoy the videos as many are places I've visited and really enjoy seeing on KZbin.

[@williamrachaner4359]

Such a joy to see Cassie,,so appreciate her comments. of course everyone loves Bowser... Great family you have, Young Man.

[@3generations393]

I have to say, my favorite part,is see y'all together and the smiles on your faces. May God bless 🙏❌⭕, Iris and Little One 👋🐾

[@krismaki757]

My favorite parts of this video were when you drove over the pass in CO, that pulled at my heart wanting to be in CO again, and seeing and hearing Cassie sharing her thoughts about the places. I'm sure I would have been very much the same. Glad you made it into one video and got to experience Cassie's excitement and company.

[@samshepperrd]

What's amazing is imagining the epic volcanic activity, floods, glaciers, tectonic shifts, mega-storms and life forms that occurred over the eons to create that scene. And so many shortsighted people just wonder how much money it's plundering might be worth. May they go the way of the dinosaurs and leave that treasure for those who appreciate the eternal treasure there is. Talk about natural beauties. Cassie's smile is priceless.

[@JDaleyBooks]

Thanks for sharing, tell Cassie that her being there made me smile through the whole video. 😊

[@vitor2650]

Dude, Cassie speaks well and she has good input! You need to get her into more content.

[@northrupmj]

Cassie mentioned that she’s not sure what to say on camera. I’m sure there’s a lot of people just like me and we would love to hear an update about what she has been doing back at the house and how her education is going. If I remember correctly she was working on her masters or PhD in education. and I also wanted to mention that being involved in KZbin and making videos is very educational. And maybe she would be able to apply a lot of things and techniques that she’s learned along the way to the videos. Her voice is so beautiful and easy to listen to. I feel that it adds a lot to the videos. At the same time I completely understand if she’s busy with other things. But I just figured I’d let her know that I for one absolutely love when she’s in the video.

[@kathigee]

I'm with you, Cassie - speachless in front of such amazing BEAUTY! That is my favorite part of the country.. Arches! and surrounding area. Thanks for sharing your first time with us Cassie!

[@wimotten8353]

Been there for a holiday in 2015 from the Netherlands. I found it fantastic. So was very happy to see those beautiful landscapes again in this video👍🏻. The photo’s at the end were also very good. Don;t know who took them, but they have clearly a very good eye for composition. 🇳🇱🇺🇸

[@SUVRVing]

I took the a photos and Cassie took the larger ones. Thanks for watching!

[@dianespears6057]

Now we know the type of area Cassie likes and where she will be willing to appear more in the future. It was lovely to see her. Thanks to you both.

[@rtreee1]

Do more together! It's great to see through four eyes, and it's wonderful to see you together.

[@davidbee8648]

One of your more amusing videos. You two make a great couple and you need to do more with her because it makes it more amusing. Thanks so much for taking us along.

[@wildzenventures]

Exploring is always more fun when traveling with loved ones! As someone who has never been to Utah, these views are spectacular!

[@alineradventureswithsimons79]

I think Cassie is becoming more comfortable in front of the camera and Bowser is just a natch! Looking forward to seeing both of them more in the future. ❤

[@virginiaallen4723]

The best trip ever. The still photos remind me of Arches photos we took on our first trip there in 1978. Miss that place.

[@MnAnnetteNS]

Another great video! Beautiful ❤ landscape! Cassie is so right! It's so nice to experience such beauty. You guys will remember these days your entire life. Makes me think back 40 plus years ago when I started my travels ( with family, friends and my husband ) through some of our National Parks out west.

[@davidstrumsky7012]

Love the feeling you get, when you take someone you love to places you've loved deeply over the years and talked about.. and they get it! Cassie GOT it. Suddenly you see it all new again thru their eyes and in their wide-grinned faces. The best! And your video, Tristan, conveyed that special feeling to me as much as it conveyed the stunning scenery. Great editing and visuals. Loved the wall of bones, and yes touching them (not some museum's plaster replica)! This was such a great one, full of future memories and me living out some woulda-coulda-shoulda moments too.

[@eforcoupons7713]

Tristan, I love watching every one of your videos, but this one is special to me. I love seeing you spending time with your wife and sharing the experiences together! Keep up the great work!

[@Mike-126]

I loved this video. Thanks for taking me along. It’s easy to see whenever you two are together that Cassie is the star of the show! You are a cute family.

[@leedonehower3112]

Cassie appears so much more at ease on camera and her input really makes the video more interesting. Given the amount of time that has elapsed since her last inclusion, I was surprised at how much older Bowser looks. Now that Cassie has gotten past her camera shyness, your videos should include her in all future videos as her perspective is a welcome counter-point to yours.

[@barb2101]

What a treat to see the three of you together. Reminded me of many happy trips to the Southwest with my husband.

[@joecutro7318]

Great to see the family in tow on this trip. Looks like such a fun time. Cassie and Bowser are delightful. 😊

[@BuckeyeDrifters]

Long time subscriber, first time commenter. My wife and I are full-time RV’ers and are passionate hikers. Since you frequent this area often, you should climb the iconic book cliff Mt. Garfield. It has some interesting history and beautiful views. Keep up the good work!

[@johnmcdonald1306]

What you have to give to your children are videos that normal dads could only wish to have. YOU ARE BLESSED

[@HOBrFINCl7]

Grant it I am pretty new to your channel, but your countenance is so much brighter when you have your wife by your side….like the last frame before you showed the instant pics. Love this video. You do good work showing the landscape in a peaceful, non boastful or egocentric way. Your love of nature shines through.

[@Rook-1956]

I mean this with the utmost respect, Cassie is a living DOLL.❤

[@johnganshow5536]

Fantastic, Love seeing Cassie & Bowser out adventuring with you.

[@tedpreston4155]

It's fun to introduce newbies to the Moab area! That was the best part of a recent trip that took us to Goblin Valley and the slot canyons near there. What a joy to watch Cassie's face light up when she talked about the places she saw! That's what captures our imagination and keeps us coming back to Moab!

[@TomReichner]

I really like this type of video that shows the services and amenities that are available in the towns near the wild areas that you love .... these are just as useful as the videos of the wild places themselves

[@d.nelson8107]

Tristan,Cassie and Bowser, this was a great video and it was even better with Cassie and Bowser!❤😊 We love all your àdventures Tristan and thank you so much for all the hard work that goes into making them.We appreciate you and wish Cassie and Bowser could come along on some of those adventures. Cassie is so good behind the camera and so pretty and Bowser is adorable.Thank you Cassie for coming along on this epic adventure. Take care, your loyal subscribers from the Northeast South Appalachian Mountains of Ga. USA ❤❤

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@bryancohn9406]

Dinosaur National Monument is truly beyond words, the wall is of course part of a mountain and the photos and records of the original size of the mountain and archaeological digs is honestly amazing. It's size is hard to fathom. Honestly its one of the most amazing, interesting, mind stretching places I have ever been. We took our daughter who is studying geology there over spring break 2023 by train to SLC, then drove 3 hrs east into a snow storm! Worth the drive!

[@TK-vv6to]

Fell in love with Moab! Hubby took me there in mid March during my birthday. It’s such a special gem in our country. Watching this makes me miss it.

[@georgecorreia5314]

It was nice to see the love and respect you have for each other thank you again for the video 😊

[@susans8539]

Love that Cassie joined you to make it a fun family adventure! Beautiful areas and great footage.

[@mikeholmes5824]

Well, that was a delightful surprise to see Cassie take over the camera and talk to us. I had to laugh when she'd had enough and handed the controls back to Tristan.

[@dcburtis2645]

It was GREAT to see your wife again! She's as charming as she is beautiful.❤

[@shannonpedersen8368]

Cassie! Love her. You found someone who appreciates nature like you do.

[@mattmacpherson1033]

I sent this to my wife with a note that we should go road trip there. For us it would be about 1.5 weeks from Wisconsin. Thanks for the inspirational videos.

[@FlyingCameraGuy]

I really enjoyed seeing Cassie take the camera, she did a great job. I loved how great she looked in the golden hour. One thing we liked about Dead Horse State park was being able to take our Westie along and the magnificent views. Great job as always Tristan, with the filming and editing.

[@sueboobarela1669]

Hi, thank you and Cassie for showing us Dinasaur National Monument. I tried to see it a few years back, but they closed it two days before I got there. Building was unstable. I was in the area to go on a commercial rafting trip through the Gates of Ladore . Camped at K O A in Vernal. Took a day trip North to Flaming Gorge. Went to a fire tower and an historic homestead. Beautiful drive. I also went to an historic farm at Dinasaur. Finished my trip by going south thru Colorado Nation Monument and Arches. I used to travel in my Nisson Quest by myself. Always felt safe.🤩

[@SUVRVing]

Sounds like an amazing trip! I'd like to do one the Green River rafting trips one of these days.

[@deanstacey828]

I truly enjoy this channel but this video was special. It is great watching you three together and Cassie’s reactions to the beauty of what you bring to us was priceless.

[@chrisr6157]

What a great video!!! I so enjoy seeing Cassie and Bowser, warms my heart! You have such a lovely family! I have been watching you for years and have learned so much.

[@Mariteach777]

It was nice see how excited your wife got after viewing the places that you frequent in your videos. Enjoyable video to watch.👍👍👍

[@kathietee291]

It is so good to see Cassie again, she’s so pretty and charming! Arches … not bad either! Enjoyed it!

[@lindajcope]

I loved seeing Cassie and she is delightful. It was a nice change and the scenery is so beautiful.

[@BuckJones1909]

That trip looked like a lot of fun! I’m sure Tristan enjoys having family, Cassie & Bowser, on the journey. Take care & be well!

[@PruthviChauhan]

Awesome seeing her.. She's a great companion and glad you guys had fun. Can't wait to go back to Moab..

[@melodyhart1331]

Beautiful area what acute dog and your lovely wife we just celebrated out 53 year together, I wish you as many.

[@marcusshumway4946]

Great video, nice seeing Cassie and Bowser. You guys should do more videos together. Good job.

[@dirtrider9268]

Give us more Cassie content! I'm in the Cassie fan club.

[@cbw382]

And.....! What a sweet and beautiful love letter - to your family and earth! So very enjoyable ~ ❤

[@FreedomToRoam86]

My all-time favorite National Monument! One cool thing about the fossil wall, was that the primary paleontologist who excavated there was the one who got politicians behind preserving the wall with fossils in it intact for people to visit. So it wasn’t a “leftover,“ but was intentional, to be able to see and touch them as they were preserved for the last 50+ million years

[@debdennison6947]

Looks like a wonderful trip. It was so great seeing Casie looking so relaxed and happy. What a handsome couple you are. Nice little family with Bowser as well. Thanks for a sweet video,

[@LeonaNeighbour]

Beautiful scenery, beautiful smiles, great to see the three of you together on a great adventure.

[@1717jbs]

Excellent. Really enjoyed this. You have some great pics also. Thanks.

[@chrisevans3887]

Awesome video thanks to Casey for joining in good going.

[@Woburn-RoxburyMedia]

Charming Couple, glad you had Cassie along for the trip. It's always more fun to enjoy the adventure w/one's Soul Mate! peace & light ~ Simone Lee Vanden

[@Deanna52ish]

Great to see you again Cassie. We love Dinosaur National Park. We were there a couple of years ago. The creationist version is that the worldwide, catastrophic flood was the reason for the dinosaur extinction. You can see evidence of the flood all over the Southwest, Canada and the world for that matter. It's an epic wonder we live in. Thank you Tristan.

[@edwil111]

Yay Cassie !! You're right how videos and pictures can't come close to matching the awesomeness of being there! -- ed in Reno
