Pretty sure we could guess which park in the first 15 seconds. But it's understandable why it won't be named. Great video, as always.

[@Kadenventures]

Yeah agreed the first 15 seconds will definitely tell you where this is :) I was more erring on the side of caution lol thanks for watching!

[@Rob81818]

I'll take rain, snow, heat, cold, but never the wind. There's so many times the wind ruins our trip.

[@daneboro6847]

Wind is the biggest whure cause it blows everybody and everything😊

[@Kadenventures]

For sure! If I was on my own I would have slept in the truck bed, the hard sides make wind much more bearable compared to tent material lol

[@RamJamOverland]

Bro, you’re in Death Valley. I was there a few weeks back. It’s completely legal to film in national parks. It’s only illegal to fly drones in national parks. Only Oregon and Utah at some national parks you have to call to see if you need a permit to film. And that’s if you have a crew of over 5 people.

[@Kadenventures]

Good to know, thank you! I was more erring on the side of caution lol cheers!

That Hcalory in a toolbox is a super nice unit. Whoever was having issues, chances are the power station most likely didn't have the correct DC 12V port to power the unit. The biggest drawl is on start-up. Fun fact I learned from LF Bros ( Diesel Heaters) Facebook Page a longer exhaust, can actually cause more carbon build-up. So I've tested my stock pipe same length as you have last night in 12F🥶 no issues at all. A nice toasty 77F🥵 on low. 🤣 I'm sorry to hear about the wind. Wind always brings us lots of anxiety. Of course, we only camp in the woods, so you can imagine why. Must have been fun editing short spots to avoid copyright ding with the music. Looks like everyone was having a great time. P.S. Love my Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Rocked it on the last trip up a mountain with crazy snow! 🛻+⛺️=🙂!

I'm the one having issues, and it's definitely not power related. The unit gives an overheating error, and from what I've read it's fairly common with this unit and too long of a hose. I tried keeping the hose short without cutting it and was able to run for about 45 minutes without issue. Previously I'd used the remote to turn it on after giving it time to cool down so I'd still have occasional heat, but I'd forgot it at home and didn't want to go outside in the cold to turn the heater back on manually. One suggestion from the forums is to switch to a larger 4" hose to reduce back pressure, so that's what I'm going to try next time. That and shortening the hose a bit. I'll probably also get a tire table like Kaden has so the distance will always be the same and there's less chance of the heater sliding off the table. (It did overnight in the wind! The feet are hard plastic and slippery.)

[@OutOfOfficeCamping]

​@brianrvegas Brian, before wasting money on a 4", please try the original car heater hose it came with. I don't understand why everyone on YT seems to push the drier vent hose. 2 personal concerns I've mentioned in several of my videos are the slinky hoses are not rated for the diesel heater hot air temps! Which caused the one we bought to off gas so bad. No brainer there! 2) With the ribs your air flow is reduced. Just think of a water gutter for example, take the slinky hose and now the factory supplied 76mm 3" car heater hose - which will allow the water to flow faster out of the pipe? Going to a 4" hose you'll have to run at a higher setting - which will use more fuel and battery power. Every YT content creator who has an over heating code that I've seen all have the same denominator the dry vent hose. All have different power sources different heaters. 5:31 Please try this before anything else. We had over 20ft of car heater hose with a split using our Hcalory 5k no issues. Video can be seen on our channel. I have all the links for couplers and the 6ft hoses in the description. I too have the tire step which I learned from Oxfoot YT channel couple years ago. Nice to have. Welcome to the GFC community! If you figure it out will you comment back or send us a email. I'd really like to know what works. Thank you Mark

[@Kadenventures]

I’m glad I haven’t seen this error code yet but good info above in case it happens in the future, thanks guys!

[@veeekzc]

Currently building my 07 Tahoe can’t wait to take it out, you should do a camp meet and greet

[@Kadenventures]

Yea! Ive been thinking of doing something like that this year🏕 Stay tuned 🤙🏽 and thanks for watching!

[@archstanton3636]

Looked like a great trip. I couldn't believe the crowds out there. You did the right thing getting out early. 24 hours in winds like that, and you will feel beat up for a week.

[@Kadenventures]

It was a rough night of sleep! lol thanks for watching!

[@erickaesman4001]

You should check out Butte Valley, Saline Hot Springs, and Panamint Springs Resort (very eclectic CG very rustic and restaurant-almost like dispersed camping). All of it is in the park.

[@Kadenventures]

I’ll keep that in mind for next time! Thanks for the suggestions 👌🏽

[@projectdeathspel5264]

Recently discovered your channel, I really enjoy the content. not one for camping but I do enjoy me watching them on the youtubes. What's even crazier is your friend Karel in the video, I went to school with him and his brother. Pretty awesome. Keep up the great work and thank you for the content!

[@Kadenventures]

Glad you found the channel and enjoy the content, welcome! And that’s crazy! lol Small world

[@chrisharbaugh9964]

That looked like a great trip. I can not wait to go back out and start camping, keep up the videos

[@Kadenventures]

Glad you enjoy them, Thanks for watching Chris!

[@whatwasthat3269]

THanks for the video. Im really starting to like the nissans.

[@Kadenventures]

Yea! This was the first time I’ve camped with a group that had more Nissans than toyos and jeeps lol! Thanks for watching 🤙🏽

[@granvillej3316]

First time subscriber and I really enjoyed this video your video content is the reason I want to pursue this Overlanding lifestyle the friendships you make the landscapes you visit and the adventures you find just gets me going thank you so much for sharing can’t wait to join you all someday God bless❤❤❤❤!!!!

[@Kadenventures]

Welcome!! Glad you found the channel! It’s a great hobby to get you out in nature and meet other like minded awesome people! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏽

[@Dirtwolf6]

you need a 15amp 12v plug for the VEVOR diesel heater and possibly other brands. also some battery banks have had issues running diesel heaters.

[@Kadenventures]

Good to know, thanks! 🤙🏽

[@beyond.overland]

Last time Lake Manly actually appeared was in 2005, not 10,000 years ago.

[@Kadenventures]

Wow some sources I read stated it hasnt happend in over 10,000 years but I just Google'd it again and its showing 2005, thanks for the info!

[@ThatOneDudeNick]

Never seen that many people out there. I'm not normally a fan of crowds but worth it to see the rare lake.

[@Kadenventures]

Yea this time it actually wasn’t too bad, the first time we went there we couldn’t even get into the parking lot lol we parked along the street

[@PNWXOverland]

Come up to Central Oregon for the PNW expo and ill show you some amazing stuff!

[@Kadenventures]

Im trying to hit one of the Expos this year! Still not sure which

[@patriotsleepercell4060]

Maxxix Razr AT 811 amazing tires

[@Kadenventures]

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching! 🤙🏽

[@2-old-Forthischet]

Did you visit Father Crowley's lookout? I went there three times before getting buzzed by the jet fighters.

[@Kadenventures]

No, never heard of it! Where is that

[@2-old-Forthischet]

@@Kadenventures on the entrance to Death Valley off of Hwy 395.

[@Kadenventures]

@@2-old-Forthischet thank you!

[@Joes-Thoughts]

What leveling blocks are you using?

[@Kadenventures]

These are the Lynx leveling blocks, didnt break the bank, easy to store with the bag it comes with and they work well! amzn.to/3SPPDk0

[@hendersonhiking9597]

Was that your first time in the "park" lol? omg I hate the wind

[@Kadenventures]

Haha no we’ve been before but it’s been about 2 years ! This wind was wild non stop all night 😳

[@poiboi808]

Chicken tinola on a cold night….perfect,🤌🏽

[@MISCIFMAKER]

Death Valley tottaly legal film anything the eye can see from public view? Does this include zooming vision is the ?

[@Kadenventures]

Yea that’s what I’ve heard I was just erring on the side of caution (and I was too lazy to do my own research lol) thanks for watching!

[@sonofamountain2862]

How was the cell coverage at the pads?

[@brianrvegas]

I have AT&T and I don't recall having any service there, but to be honest, I didn't really check my phone. There is sporadic service in the park which I can say from previous visits.

[@sonofamountain2862]

@@brianrvegas thank you so much my friend.

[@Kadenventures]

Yea zero service out at the pads, and pretty much throughout the park except around the visitor center which has some service

[@JustmeJimBoi]

Will you be posting coordinates to that Campsite (BLM land)?

[@DesertSunAdventures]

He's in California.

[@JustmeJimBoi]

@@DesertSunAdventures oh I know he’s in Cali and I was try to look up The Pads but it wasn’t coming up so I was wondering if he was gonna post the coordinates

[@DesertSunAdventures]

Tried to send you coordinates but it was removed not sure if KZbin or someone else.

[@DesertSunAdventures]

Let's see if this works. Hwy 190, DEATH VALLEY, CA 92328

[@JustmeJimBoi]

@@DesertSunAdventures oh ok well mahalo for trying I appreciate that

[@notNaB2024]

If you want to be a responsible outdoors champion you should know that dogs are not allowed on unpaved trails in any nationak park. It sucks, i have dogs, but rules are rules.

[@Kadenventures]

I know there are signs posted for trail heads and around Badwater basin, etc which we do follow but for unpaved random trails around national parks, I didnt know. Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching

[@CanadianCampPurr]

you should of timed who had fastest tent setup.

[@Kadenventures]

We should have! If it weren’t for that wind blinding us lol

[@MISCIFMAKER]

Try chkn weather b4 nxt trip.

[@brianrvegas]

I'd checked the forecast and saw high winds for the following day at noon, so we should have been fine. This hit 12 hours earlier than predicted. Forecasts are predictions, and aren't always right. I'm a sailor so I'm always checking the wind through a variety of predictions and radar maps.

[@Kadenventures]

I was counting you man! 🤪
