BEAUTIFUL Flaming Gorge Utah RV Camping | Ashley National Forest

BEAUTIFUL Flaming Gorge UT RV Camping | RV America Y'all
This week, we take you along as we RV camp in the breathtaking Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area and the Ashley National Forest in Northeast Utah. The stunning beauty of Red Canyon and the surrounding area absolutely blew us away!
We visit the Flaming Gorge NRA visitor centers, the historic Flaming Gorge dam, take a scenic drive, and an amazing hike along the canyon rim. We also share some of the local wildlife, our visit to historic Sweat Ranch, and our campsite at the Canyon Rim Campground.
If you missed last week's video about our RV dry camping experience at Flaming Gorge, you can find it here: rvtexasyall.com/rv-lifestyle/... .
Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area, the Ashley National Forest and the Canyon Rim Campground are some of the most beautiful places we have ever RV camped! But RV camping in this national forest isn't for everyone. We share important tips and things to consider about Flaming Gorge camping so that you can make an informed decision about whether or not it is right for you.

🤠 Thanks For Watching!
We are Tom and Stacie Langland, known for 10 years as RV Texas Y'all.
We are Native Texans and Full-Time RVers who are all about exploring the Great State of Texas and America one campground at a time. We're on a mission to experience life, not just live it and we're bringing you along for the fun.
In 2018, we sold our house, our business and gave away just about everything we own to hit the road and see America. Our home is a 33' motorhome named Freedom. We installed an extreme solar and lithium battery setup so now we can camp just about anywhere with our dog (Star) and our cat (Astro).
Every day is a new adventure, so join us as we RV America Y'all.
Safe Travels and Happy Camping!

We can't wait to continue the adventure next week when we share our visit to amazing Dinosaur National Monument!

I love y'all's videos. There are so many out there about how to RV not as much about the areas. I enjoy all the nature y'all go through. From one Texan to another, thank you!

[@rvamericayall]

⭐️ thanks 😊

[@caniacstevehenderson7115]

Simply beautiful!!

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks

[@Herk988]

This video made my heart happy! Canyon Rim is our happy place, we took our kids camping there when raising our family and we still go as often as we can during the summer/fall. We know Sheep Creek Canyon area very well. Years ago, there used to be a huge spring that gushed out from the side of the rocks. It was incredibly amazing! So glad you were able to see the big horn sheep and experience the wildlife in the area. The views are stunning and we agree, some of the roads are not the easiest to navigate due to disrepair. The sights and peaceful settings are so worth it though which are reasons we continue to return again and again. Sometimes we just long for the peace and quiet and you’re so right, the smell of pine in the air is wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for sharing your experience! It is a special place!!! 😊

[@jeffproctor1273]

Absolutely beautiful 😃

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks 😊

[@explorations40]

Cool explore as always stunning views 🇺🇸🤠 your videos are always great to watch and your Dog Star is adorable

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks & we agree she defy us! ❤️

[@caryosiek1826]

Great video!!!I l lived in Vernal for over 50 years and I am very familiar with the Flaming Gorge area. As a mater of fact, Oscar Swett’s wife, Emma, was my grandfather’s sister. I have a little bit of history about the ranch that may not be printed in the paperwork you have. Oscar felt that bathrooms should be outside not inside. This is why there is not a door going into the bathroom from inside the house. Oscar died of a heart attack after getting his gun and shooting a porcupine that was chewing on their house. I moved to south Texas last March. I think what I miss most about Utah is the Uinta mountains. and the Flaming Gorge area .

[@rvamericayall]

Wow, such a cool story about your relatives adding to the Swett’s story! Hope you are enjoying Texas, we definitely loved your former home state! Incredible!!!

[@randyconeley5790]

Keep up the great videos thanks yall

[@rvamericayall]

Your welcome Randy!

[@jimmymcclosky3786]

Beautiful views!!

[@rvamericayall]

It was crazy beautiful, thanks for watching!

[@michelemcdanieltravels]

Well now, this was a great watch! Thank you for showcasing the off grid campgrounds that are so often overlooked and take a back seat to the RV resorts and state parks that focus on comfort and amenities. There is something to be said for finding these lesser known places and experiencing the valuable trade offs in what they have to offer in the way of nature, privacy and the value of just being disconnected. Always appreciate the historical references, museums, and effort you put into presenting all your content. Keep doing what your doing, and we’ll all keep loving it!😊

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks Michele, it was so nice being right there with nature! 😊

Loved the video makes us want to get back out west! We will soon enough!!😃

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks RC, well worth the trip! 😊

[@jstar1000]

We flew to Denver from Dallas, rented a van with a couple we travel with often and the 4 of us drove from Denver to Rocksprings, spent the night, then drove all the way around the flaming gorge like you guy's did and ended up in Idaho where we spend the next for days in Yellowstone, we stayed in Driggs Idaho as a base as it was much cheaper then staying in Jackson Hole area which is very expensive and Driggs was a sweet little town. Every day we drove up to the north west entrance of Yellowstone and had a great time. The drive back each day from Ashton to Driggs while the sun was setting was one of the most beautiful drives in my opinion of the whole trip. Every day was different too. Talk about Gods country, wow! We then left and drove a scenic route to the black hills and saw Mt Rushmore then back to Denver. It was like 3800 miles over 8 days, what an epic trip that was.

[@rvamericayall]

Very cool, thanks for sharing & experiencing life not just living it! 😊

[@lizcort5047]

Another great video. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for taking us along ! We have two dogs who hike with us so we always appreciate when you tell us if dogs are allowed or not. We keep returning to Acadia NP Bc it’s one of the only NP that allow dogs. Journey safe 🙏🏼🍷

[@rvamericayall]

You’re welcome and thanks for watching! Glad you take pups with you! ❤️

[@exploringcoasttocoast0203]

We were in Utah in 2019 also but we visited all 5 national parks - epic!

[@rvamericayall]

That’s incredible, I know you loved that!

[@exploringcoasttocoast0203]

@@rvamericayall that was our best trip so far.

[@rvamericayall]

Totally understand that!

[@patertl7345]

thanks

[@rvamericayall]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@creditguy4922]

I hear out west they are in a drought. Has the gorge been affected? Looks like the river is still high with the gorge releasing water into the river. What a beautiful camp site. Safe travels.

[@rvamericayall]

Not sure about drought but it didn’t seem like it! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@allanwarmflash4440]

fun

[@rvamericayall]

Yep

[@craftytraveler9238]

Thanks for the video. It all looks interesting. I have it on my bucket list. Love seeing the quilts at the ranch. Did you make reservations and how long before you camped there. I may be there in mid July.

[@rvamericayall]

Yes we did make reservations, I think about 6 months in advance!

[@allanwarmflash4440]

we went over hover with the truck

[@rvamericayall]

We did too, in our past truck!

[@judystreich7333]

Knew you would be excited exploring the FG. Isn’t it spectacular?

[@rvamericayall]

It sure is Judy, 🤩

[@markreynolds9570]

Do you have a link for the passport book you use. Thanks for the great video.

[@rvamericayall]

It’s in the description of the video!

[@kirkwilliams184]

You guys need to go over to Nevada Along lake Tahoe and see the real Ponderosa

[@rvamericayall]

One day!

[@OnTheMewve]

Great video! We are planning our summer 2024 trip and are looking at stopping through this area. Could you share what site y'all had in Canyon Rim? Are there any with some shade? We will probably be there in mid June. Thanks! ~Kelli and Wilson

[@rvamericayall]

Off the top of my head I can’t remember but it was the only that would fit us and the one with the least shade so we could get as much solar as possible. I think Stacie says toward the end of the video as she usually does and/or she probably mentions it in our boondocking video we did when we stayed in this area last year.

[@judystreich7333]

Lisa and. Kelly, remember this?

[@rvamericayall]

😊

[@audiecarter8886]

Do ya'll do any off road trails in your jeep?

[@rvamericayall]

Nothing crazy at all because it is our everyday driver & we don’t have any other option!

[@blubyu178]

What month were you there?

[@rvamericayall]

End of July
