The ULTIMATE RV Road Trip Through CALIFORNIA! - Hwy 395 is CRAZY Underrated! 😍

Highway 395 may be the most beautiful road we've ever taken our RV on! We had a blast driving our vintage camper van across the most underrated highway in California. It winds through mountains and forests, past historic towns, unbelievable nature and pristine lakes. Sure highway 1 is great, but if you want jaw-dropping mountain views for days on end, this is the ultimate route through California! 😍

What a state California is! It seems to comprise elements of the entire world's geography. Good choice of route, it was spectacular even from my sofa.

[@Theendlessadventure]

Glad you enjoyed it! And we kept saying the same thing. The state has literally everything! Mountains, deserts, forests, beaches, lakes, some of the highest and lowest points in the world - it's wild!

[@usmcdoc2512]

My state is beautiful, politics have ruined it. If your on the 395 visit parker lake by June lake loop and brewed awakening in big pine. Plenty of hot springs to enjoy along the way. Don't let the water up your nose.

[@kaypee4704]

That’s why we live here….from the mountains, desert to the sea in one day…..❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸

[@davidday2373]

Mexico loves to claim "Mexico, it's a world of its own"... I won't debate that, but I think that applies to California too.

[@usmcdoc2512]

@@davidday2373 I feel if mexico is so awesome, why are their people running to America?.......

[@MrfiX725]

TREMORS fan!!! HWY 395 from Lancaster, CA to Mammoth is the greatest road trip and Erick Schat's Bakery is a must-go. Full stop.

[@HadassahLynnFoster]

Don’t forget Mahogany Meats - their bacon is amazing!!!!

[@1960fusion]

I have lived in the SF Bay Area all my life and Highway 395 is one of my all time favorite areas and the fishing is world class! if you haven't been further north to Burney falls, fall river area in Shasta County you are in for a treat there as well. The only thing ugly in California is the politics...enjoy!

[@micaylabirondo836]

Nobody does road trippin in the U.S. better than you guys. Period. I'm a native Californian and I never knew highway 395 was so beautiful and interesting. Now I have to plan to drive on up just like you guys! 😁

[@Theendlessadventure]

Aww, thank you! And you should definitely drive it when you get the chance. Basically every 30-45 minutes you're in a new, cute town with amazing views 😍

[@jacobepstein4009]

If you want real western vibes go to cayenne Wyoming Eric how many miles do you get per full tank in both cars?

[@davestevens4263]

Ohh it is , the more you look , the more you find .

[@user-pm2bl8bz9r]

Thank you so much for staying with us at Willow Springs Resort (family-owned and operated since 1953). Hope to see you two again when you’re in the beautiful Eastern Sierras!

[@julieofidaho6591]

Michael Gross and Reba McEntire were my favorite actors in Tremors. It is one of my favorite movies. You guys are having an epic journey.

[@zachlafond2652]

Minute Erik jumped on that rock i knew it was from Tremors. Loved that movie as a kid.

[@DeeLuscious]

The love Eric has for that movie 😂💘

[@bobbiecorno8560]

Tremors is such a classic! Is there some higher force at work here? Bert and Heather in their basement bunker is the absolute best.

[@kathykeene2092]

We live in So Cal, and 395 is one of our favorite trips. Thanks for the wonderful video.

[@ablaze7973]

I must once again congratulate you on just how professional your video editing and creating skills are… Well Done! 😃👍

[@thankourvets3882]

Oh my gosh! You are in my 'second home'! I grew up vacationing in Mammoth, I know every stop you made (and more)! and I will be there in 2 weeks for my end-of-summer stay! If only our paths would have crossed then! It would have been lovely to meet you! So happy to see you enjoying my 'hood', lol.

[@melissarene9399]

Y'all have the best metabolism with all that you eat and staying in shape!

[@MartiJo79]

I had to look up the ugly bug. It's called a blister beetle and definitely don't want to get bit. It reminded me of a velvet ant (aka cow killer) which we have in SE Missouri and they're no fun either.

[@Mamiluz]

I had too look it up too. A most interesting specimen!

[@FloridaandBeyond]

The Alabama Hills look amazing! Lol, nice name drop with USA. They played a lot of those movies over and over. You found a really cool area to explore!

[@weprusso]

ABSOLUTELY one of my most favorite drives.... Hwy 395.... Also, you need to try Hwy 50 to Utah...

[@robertford7318]

I love that you covered your trip to Lone Pine, Bishop and the Bristlecone Pine, and the areas near Bridgeport because that is an area of California that not many people even know about. Every October they have the Lone Pine Film Festival, which is a must go to at least once on your bucket list. I was born in Bishop and my dad was Postmaster & we did our skiing in Mammoth. I consider it one of the most beautiful parts of California other than the Big Sur ocean area. Well done episode!👏👏👏

[@whatsitlike6392]

Thank you for the Tremors mention! Love that movie.

[@thenikonjones]

Outstanding video! I am really glad you all are showing this side of California. It really is under-rated and deserves more focus because there are some incredible places to see on the East side of the state. The B-roll and overall camera work in this one are on point! Great job!

[@otterhb]

We love the 395! Thank you for sharing! We did a lot of fishing and camping for our channel this summer, it’s a beautiful place! Next time you must go to the June Lake Loop! You’d love it!

[@spankroy]

Look at all that warm snow melting into Convict lake!

[@andreas_adventures]

Me and my husband did that drive a few years ago to camp in Mammoth Lakes and go to Yosemite. So much beauty over there.

[@trinadennison5803]

Yesss you had me sold from the beginning with Tremors (I grew up watching it with my dad, one of my all time favorite movies) and then the trip just kept getting better!

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Wauw the Footage absolutely Breathtaking 🤩 thank you so much for taking us along 🥰 That Bakery OMG thats a whole adventure to its self of very yummy ,tasty Goodies 😋 Looking forward to seeing where your off to next 😜 Have a Good week safe travels 🥰

[@badgerpa9]

Tremors is awesome, from a time when movies were fun to watch. Monkey bread or pull apart are great also.

[@priscillaramos4059]

My favorite Bakery!! I’m there twice a year: I live in L.A. so it’s only 5 hours from me. Love thr High Sierras 😃

[@fedupnow61859]

I'm a tremor fanatic too. I love saying the lines while it is on. Never have a missed a chance to watch it.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Oh man, ya'll were spitting distance from Cerro Gordo and Brent from Ghost Town Living. Ruby totally could have made it up the road to the ghost town lol

[@terry3193]

I remember going to the movies to see Tremors, that’s how old I am. I too have seen the original movie a hundred times. One of my favorite scenes is when the Ford station wagon gets sucked underground. Awesome!

[@carolvillanueva3728]

I love you guys. You are so funny. You're just goof-balls. You make laugh🤣🤣🤣🤣Love all the info you are sharing. Thank you 😊

[@CrystalForest-rn7jz]

You're right the state of Alabama is so much nicer than where you are at the Alabama Hills. The state of Alabama's is lush green with beautiful beaches and delicious Seafood, while the Alabama Hills are dead looking and dried out and Parched. I would much rather be in the state of Alabama. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@marge3157]

Well if you come up 395 through Oregon, I highly suggest jumping off 395 and head towards Christmas Valley ->to Silver Lake to go to the COWBOY DINNER TREE. 3 things about CDT is bring cash (no 🤑 machine) come HUNGRY 😋 and MAKE A RESERVATION - OR NO DINNER 🤣

[@jerihensley5065]

You both make me smile! I love the banter that the 2 of you share. I started watching when you were working on Clementine. I was going through a divorce at that time. Then when you shared about the death of a parent, I just sat with tears rolling down my face. My father had just died in December 2022. I am around the same age as your parents. Keep having fun! I may see you on the road. I am starting a full-time adventure on my own. Love you both!❤

[@jeffhampton2767]

That Bakery looks fantastic. Oh my God if I lived around there, I would be in there everyday. That pastrami sandwich looks absolutely delicious. That is right up my alley! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@EricandAmyTravels]

This is familiar territory for us! The turkey sandwich at Schat's is amazing! Great video!

[@crazycoollady]

One of my favorite aspects about California is how many biomes there are in that one state.

[@diciabosley]

Tremors is one of my favorite movies ever!!! I have probably watched it over 200 times in my lifetime. :)

[@MalcolmRuthven]

Photographer Ansel Adams shot many of his classic photos along 395. Also, the restaurant at Convict Lake has been known for great food for many years.

[@kissmarcell3360]

Was waiting for this!

[@rhousto1]

I've lived in California all my life (76yrs.) and have only been on a small portion of this road although it's been an ambition of mine. This video has inspired me to "hit the road" and see the backside of the Sierras. I've seen many places in California but for some reason haven't really done this section. Time to make plans. Heading to Rocky Mountain National Park in a few weeks so this might be something to do after we return. Keep up the good work!

[@GaryNix]

I have lived in Ca all of my life am 74 and I have only been on hwy 395 one time. I have vacationed in Tahoe a 100 times. I have missed a lot but next year my wife and I plan to spend a lot of time in that area. Great video!

Hello Both. Convict Lake looks fantastic, but the water is cold. Eric In Wales we have a saying about getting into such cold water. “You’ll have to sit down to wee from now on!”.

[@dianeyoung2914]

You have to watch some of the oldies, 'True Grit' (the John Wayne one), Magnificent Seven', 'Fistfull of Dollars', The Good The Bad and The Ugly' 'Butch Cassidy', fantastic. I used to watch them with my Dad and now he is gone when one of these comes on I will sometimes watch and look up to him and say 'This ones for you Dad'.

[@alangauld6079]

We did the other end of 395 from Lake Tahoe to Mono Lake back in 2002. We then headed west into Yosemite as part of a road trip from Seattle to LA. 395 was one of the best sections of the whole trip for sure.

[@davidday2373]

(i gotta say, Mono Lake itself was a disappointment)

[@alangauld6079]

@@davidday2373 Not for us Brits. The whole idea of a lake in the middle of a desert was pretty amazing. And one that had undrinkable water too. Even more wild. Nope, Mono lake was definitely one of the more memorable spots for us. Would I rush back? Maybe not. So it is not as good as Tahoe, Sonora or Yosemite. But still pretty amazing.
