Rain, Graves, and Food-Camp Life

In this video we continue to enjoy our camp in Pima County, Arizona. After a heavy rainstorm we get out to see the area. Beautiful views and some desert finds. Found an old cattle pen, water tank, and pump. Then I come upon a Native American burial ground. Then back to camp for a hearty camp dinner.
Thank You For Being Here.

I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
Thanks for watching!

That is the best, prettiest desert camp site I have ever seen posted by anyone.

[@bonniepwtf]

I concur!

[@PlanetEarth3141]

I agree, but then I've never seen a bad landscape in the southwest. 😊

[@patdavis8018]

I agree, it's beautiful

[@theathjr]

Agree

[@eloyrodarte1083]

It's beautiful when it rains in the desert.

[@PlanetEarth3141]

Don't know about you Adventurous Man, but the sound of rain in the desert, the suddenly fresh ozone, the crystal clear plants washed off from dust and the burst of blooms that can appear almost like magic are a fine thing to experience. It's like heaven's blessing to man, beast and flora. 😊

[@theathjr]

Brian this HAS to be the most epic camp spot ever ! This was one of your best videos of all time. That meal looked amazing. Kelly seems so joyful and happy. I love your channel so much. Thank you. Did I mention how wonderful the cinematography is in this video ?! Wow.

The "X" was a visible target for aerial mapping photography, as a land surveyor I set many of those in Florida. It's so the photo airplane could get at the right altitude and location to keep distortion to a minimum. Happy Trails y'all !

[@journeyswithlittletpage1669]

I love listening to the rain ☔

[@PlanetEarth3141]

Listening to rain is like listening to life. Even the howl of wind, thunder and lightening is like the birth of life. Chaos signals creation at work. 🤔

Doesn't get better than this.. Thanks for bringing us along Brian and Kelly....ohhh and Hobbs.

[@lynnewolters8411]

Thank you for adding identification of the birds. I often wonder what bird songs I’m hearing the background of KZbin videos. Nice touch.

[@padmepadme]

Gorgeous videography; thanks dearly for sharing.

[@comanchecounty4149]

Hobbes may be reluctant to venture far from the box van due to joint pain and arthritis. My own terrier exhibited the same behavior but with an added head turn to peer back toward home. He seemed genuinely worried most times if he could make it back. Dogs are stoic creatures but its best not to push their limits in advanced age. Good to hear the sound of the rain.

[@sslcfc]

Just beautiful. Seems the AZ deserts never disappoints after a wet winter.

[@slyborg1]

Thank you for sharing that adventure. What a beautiful garden you live in.

Omg, I needed this like a stiff drink. Thank you Brian. Keep on trucking. ✌️

[@thepatsyfamily]

This video made me a little homesick. Arizona sure is pretty when she’s not 120°. I could almost smell those creosote bushes after the rain.

[@Woodthrush]

Loved the birds! Looks like a great camp and no neighbors... So nice.

[@brendao6576]

Wow. Incredibly beautiful.

Hello from Portugal 🇵🇹 Congratulations on 100K subscribers. I used to enjoy the sound of the rain hitting my RV when camping.

Lovely video. Beautiful scenery after the rain! I've camped on BLM land south of Ajo - so green.

Great video Brian, I really enjoy your nature walks, really relaxes me before I get going for the day. Thanks

The Garden of Eden never looked so wondrous as a southwestern desert after rain 🌧️. This video attests to it and its always this way. Harsh and furious then glistening and renewed.😊

[@karenkeller5866]

What a beautiful place to camp.

The Salisbury steak looks so tasty, you're lucky to have a partner to cook and eat with, it's hard for a single person to cook and eat well. Hi Kelly !

[@riverflyswatter]

Perfect fan location!

[@christinamerritt9669]

Absolutely loved this video. As always I love seeing Hobbs. I really enjoyed seeing the land. Its so beautiful

Hobbs is absolutely the best name for a schnauzer.

Supper looked yummy! Beautiful sunset

[@georgecorreia5314]

You and Kelly make a great team and Hobbs of course thank you for the video 😊

[@karakoppanyi3845]

I imagine it smelled wonderful after the rain! I loved the conversation of the coyotes, the birds, all the impressive cacti, the sunsets, mountains and exploring the terrain. Thanks so much. Just what I needed. And yes, that meal looked so so delicious! Best wishes to you both and to Hobbs.

[@TeriDuncan8049]

Thanks for the desert tour, especially showing the plants close up! I've seen the plants and wondered what they were and how they looked close up.

[@moretea8314]

Hello Brian... I appreciate you taking the time to add 'labels' under the pictures of the birds telling us what they are. Not to mention you talking us through the local plants; it really gives us who live outside the US an appreciation for the flora and fauna. Cheers, Simon (UK).

You mean ‘Stop and smell the cactus’ 😂 Thanks for the video. I love the desert.

[@laurachynoweth5186]

So nice to have that rain in the desert, sounds like the coyotes enjoyed it. Bet the other animals and plants did too! I live in the coastal PNW and we get a good amount of rain for about 1/2 the year. In my senior years I can't really tolerate heat very much. I love sunshine, just not heat.

[@gaiaceleste333]

Gorgeous!

[@goodwaterhikes]

Love this location. The combination of cacti with the green and mountains make it special 😎☮

[@outdoorsdon]

Having been raised in Arizona, I have many fond memories of weekend outings or drives through the desert, Rim, Tonto NF, Sycamore Creek, Four Peaks, and more. Each video you share brings back many of those memories. Thank you for sharing and enjoying the beauty of Arizona.
