Rivers To Dust - 1,000's Of Acres Of Public Land And Nowhere To Camp!

We left Montana and headed out across Central Idaho to explore the outback of South Eastern Oregon. We started out along the beautiful Lochsa River in Idaho and then ended up taking a dirt road across BLM public land in S.E. Oregon. We tried to find a place to camp and after 50 miles of dirt road finally found a place to pull off the road! Along the way we explore an abandoned cowboy line shack, watched cowboys on horseback herding cattle and experienced the incredible beauty of Eastern Oregon.

Getting out on the road is what Linda and I love to do with our converted cargo trailer camper. We're part time nomads and the nomadic lifestyle suits us to a Tee. Whether your RV is a camper van, camp trailer, travel trailer, motorhome or just a car and a tent, there's going to be something interesting for you in the videos we produce. Back roads and overlanding are part of what we do while exploring the western states for beautiful, peaceful and sometimes remote places to camp on BLM and National Forest land (public land). Taking care of ourselves as much as possible and doing our own repairs is a must because we travel on a fixed income and a limited budget. If your into being off-grid and boondocking, or doing dispersed camping whenever possible then you'll appreciate the discussions on batteries, solar panels and solar chargers or power stations and 12v refrigeration. Come on along, we're happy to have your company!

Yes! I liked your comments about being unobtrusive or discreet as possible in public parking places, like home depo etc...please don't ruin it for others, as there must be a reason why some Walmarts tell you you can't stay there, we don't want that to be the case everywhere.

[@keepinganopenmind8216]

Suggestion to those considering.... Rice keeps fairly well. But if whether you want it fresh or for later.... cooking rice on the road is best done while you drive... so you can use the energy of your engine... and save the power stored in your batteries or power station !

You're never lost when the trip is about the journey and not the destination... I've been on that road and the Alvord Playa.

[@untetherednomad6393]

SE Oregon is wide open high desert...cows and sagebrush. The real deal local cowboys have a distinct style of dress, wide flat brim hats and neckerchiefs and vests. I do carry extra gas on runs like this. I laughed when Linda said the cows will come over and stare at you....so true!!

[@gonagain]

Linda's daddy was a cowboy. Hey, that's pretty cool about their style of dress in that area.

[@lindagolden9892]

Ahhh…nothing quite like the great outdoors…relax, breathe in fresh air and the purest scents of forest and prairie land, enjoy the sounds of a roaring river, nightly wildlife calls and song birds. Hope you and Linda have a wonderful summer out yonder creating memories to last a lifetime. 🏕

I was born in Ontario..lived in Payette ID but they had no hospital so I am an Oregonianidahoan. They also use the rock fence supports in lava flow prairie as you can't dig deep enough for a fence post in many places or in a straight line.

[@gonagain]

Thanks for that info Randy, much appreciated.

[@PastorwithoutaPulpit]

Truly beautiful out there I find it funny with so many people talking about how over crowded our planet is it's very clear they've never ventured into what they refer to as "Fly over country". As a retired OTR Owner Operator I can with 110% certainty say that there are square miles upon square miles of lightly or unpopulated areas all across this Nation. I've driven for hours before without seeing another human being of even a structure or signs that anyone else even exists. There's still so much to see even after having driven well over 1 million miles in my lifetime. Little tip you'd be surprised how easy it is to rig a couple 5 or 10 gallon "Jerry Cans" onto your vehicle or trailer and if you can find that at a military surplus they used to be very affordable. They do of course add some weight but can save your skin when needed. Thanks for sharing a bit of your adventures with us all. Safe travels and God Bless...

[@gonagain]

Thank you Mjr Burn, we love your comment on the wide open spaces and also the tip on carrying gas. We're kinda maxed out as far as space and weight goes, but we do have to be more careful about where we go. Come to think of it though, there was a time last year where I was doing 45 mph to get the best mileage trying to make the next station. A lone station on a reservation and we were glad to find it open! Near Owyhee, NV.

[@dustyroads834]

Lol. You forgot to mention the cows love to use your trailer or truck as a scratching post at 4 in the morning.

[@64MAGA24]

At about 8:24 into your video I thought of one of my favorite poems, by one of my favorite poets: The Road Not Taken- Robert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. I also loved the story about you reflecting on a time long ago when your family was playing in this great river. Nothing better than having the mind to remember such beautiful events. I’ll take experiences, memories and the beauty all around us when we get out and explore and day over Things; they are nothing but things. If we play our cards right our mind can give us a lifetime memories. Thanks so much for sharing these great videos.

[@gonagain]

Wow, thank you so very much for sharing that poem by Robert Frost. You're so right about memories and I hope your memory locker is filled to the brim.

[@averagealice8877]

I always learn something useful from your videos! Gotta love those wide-open, desolate camping places. Also enjoyed seeing the Lochsa River. Based on having only sons myself, I'm not sure I'd try that game with two young boys?

Could be fun!

[@lesliemulvey4743]

Loved it! Thank you!

[@777cretbo]

Very nice stuff ... very relaxing to watch ,,, How tall does that sage brush grow too?

[@gonagain]

That depends on where you are. In Nevada and Arizona I guess it gets up to about 5 feet, but in Texas they have a really tall variety that dwarfs that.

[@CharlesButler]

WOW beautiful country. Have you ever run across where the Gate would be locked and have to turn around and go back on those country roads?

[@gonagain]

So far, no. If you are on public land, the gate shouldn't be locked. If it is locked, it means you've come up to private land.

[@eutimiochavez415]

[@butchkelin3762]

I have run out of gas a couple times. First time I had 5 gallons in the back of my truck thank God. Second time I had 10 gallons thank God. Oh I just hate that feeling when the gas tank is getting low and the spare tanks are empty and I don't know where the next gas station is. So I keep at least 15 gallons in Jerry cans in the back of the truck and I will fill up if I see a convenient gas station and I am less than half full. Are use sta-bill to keep the gas fresh and rotate it out on a regular basis.

[@adamw4469]

Several years ago in our small travel trailer, we hid from bad weather in an Alley between Home Depot and WalMart in Marianna Florida. (With the security guard's blessing) The Home Depot had the most excellent public WIFI! We watched the weather channel and Netflix all night long. When we overnight like that, we always shop in the store; around here, Big-box management will abide RVs much quicker when they see a shopping cart with a few essentials at the cash register! We continue to prepare for a western winter adventure. Alabama Departure date is set for Thanksgiving afternoon. (after the meal-w- family) Shakedown trip to the mountains of North Georgia in July.

Wife and I came home one day to find cows in my front yard/garden. They had been feasting on my corn, and other veggies. Pretty well eaten and trampled. Cows came from about 1/2 mile away. Owner of cows was renting pasture and did not maintain fences. He paid for my veggies. 10 days later same cows were back. I called him. reply? Those are not my cows this time. Ear tags were the same. Neighbor and I had some fine frozen eating after dressing. Somehow, the same owner came by, saying 4 of his cows were missing.

[@gonagain]

We have to keep the cattle off of our off grid property, keep the fence up, check the stock gate, etc because the property next to ours leases out the grazing to a rancher. MT is an open range land which means its up to us to fence the cattle out. It should be the other way around..

Dang site better than Walmart. Creative existence, self reliance. Government hates that. Lochsa is a free place..

'On The Road Again',---------'GONAGAIN'. COOL, Ya Made it Out of the Frozen Tundra. Rick & Linda, Happy Trails and Yes, Always have 5 gal of extra fuel. I use 2-gal containers as they are easier to stash and handle. I have six of them. Then I've been seeing for a long time those 'Flat-Type' containers. Super easy to Stack or even Bolt-On as some have a Bolt System which requires a Mod. Of some kind on your car or trailer. I'm Certain you've seen them. Gasoline, 'Don't Leave Home Without Extra'. Be Safe and God Bless.😊✌As you 'Drive Into The Sun'☀️🌝🌞

[@gonagain]

Thank you, Vincenzo, for reminding us about having extra gas. We'll look into those flat type "cans".

Highway 20 Oregon has a few murder and serial killer stories to go with it. When asked if I am lost I usually reply "no I found you didn't I"? That usually gets a few seconds of silence before they realize I am answering their sarcasm with sarcasm. Stay safe and watch for the loons'.

[@gonagain]

Thanks for that info about the serial killers Badger....

What vehicle would you suggest for newbies? I would like an suv to start exploring the US but not sure which. I know I need a 4x4

[@gonagain]

If you're not towing, the Toyota Tacoma is great. If you are towing, we love the Chevy Suburbans and the GMC Yukons.

[@justlivelovelaughfrugally]

@@gonagain The Tacoma is nice! I caught myself looking at it. Lol. I won’t be towing Thanks for answering.

Why is "government land" so scarce in The East?

[@gonagain]

The "east" was already settled before Teddy Roosevelt became President and set aside public land.

[@jimb5113]

@@gonagain LOL! "set aside"?? I love the word manipulation. That makes the current "set aside" by our current politicians seem much better. Thank you for the mental adjustment. Now I can relax when violent acts "set aside" new social opinions. Seriously. I did wonder if the government lands of the West were taken by government or was the land "unclaimed", where in the East lands were owned/deeded to private citizens. Or, perhaps government bought land from landowners. Thanks for your videos and camp knowledge.

50 miles of dirt road .... that's my kind of Social Distancing .... although I noticed when you drove by the cows you didn't have a mask on .... where I live I think there's law against that ...
