Van Life Wyoming - Grand Teton National Park (AMAZING) and Jackson WY - VanLife Ep 31

[@masonh2195]

Also most truck stops have water at the big rig pumps if you ever need it

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Good to know, thank you Mason!

[@maggiehouseknecht4524]

It's so dang hard to watch your videos because I want to be doing this so bad. Grand Tetons were spectacular along with snow country. My niece just moved to Jackson and this may be my first long trip when I get my sprinter. Might have one by next week if he accepts my offer!!!! Bummer about your windshield.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hope you get it Jackson will not disappoint!

Tip for the DEF Fluid - buy the Peak brand that comes in a box, keep one in the van, when it gets low and the DEF light comes on the dash, the whole jug will fit without overflowing 👍🏼

[@MathersOnTheMap]

I am not a fan of letting that DEF Fluid light come on though, it happened once before, we filled it up right away and then we got the check engine light and limp mode count down (needed new nox sensors covered under warranty) but I don't have confidence in letting it get low!

[@dmwi1549]

Good to know. I’m at 2800 miles and def gauge reads just under 1/2 full.

[@caddyzig]

Wow! I didn’t think you’d top the shots from your last video. How beautiful!

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Thank you!

[@margiepeary8003]

Big Sky country... beautiful!!!

[@MathersOnTheMap]

We’ll be sharing our adventure there soon!

[@ItsOhJoe]

Views look incredible

[@MathersOnTheMap]

It’s sooo beautiful there, one of our favorite parks so far!!

[@MrTitanTopper]

Luv watching your vids. In my mid 50s and so envious. DON’T take these experiences for granted. Safe travels! 👍🏻

[@MathersOnTheMap]

We don’t!!! Thanks for watching!!!

Hey Money Shot! There is no reason you can’t do this too. I am 53, building my second van, hitting the road in less than a month.

[@MrTitanTopper]

@@AdventureOtaku Well, actually, looking to retire in a couple of yrs after living the "traditional" life and then plan on thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail. To be continued...😉

There are 2 virtual live cams on KZbin that are focused on the antler arch in Jackson, WY.

Thank you Jackie it really is beautiful!

[@adriankung1625]

Beautiful scenic drives and drone footage -- happy travels!! Since you're having "challenges" with filling things up lately, you should probably fill up some growlers with the Ginger-Chai -- you can always drink any over-flow there...

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hahaha right!! So good!!

[@mikecolesvids]

Wow you two are brave going out there in winter. That snow in your last few vids is BONKERS! 🥶

Love the videos! You guys are one of the channels that inspired us to take the leap, buy a Sprinter, and convert it ourselves! Thank you for all the great information and beautiful shots! Stephanie and Josh, in Boulder.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hey Stephanie and Josh thanks for watching and the continued support!!! Best of luck with your build!!!

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha isn’t that always the case! best of luck with your build!

[@ABonRMS]

Beautiful country out there and the Grand Tetons just seem to pop up out of the prairie & foothills. My brother spent a summer in the mountains as a geology student picking up rocks and watching out for snakes. He was amazed at the Grand Tetons and the Badlands of the Dakotas. Now does the DEP overflow cup drain back into the tank? I get your point, my snow blower does the same thing but with gasoline. its scary when a rock hits the windscreen at high speed. Thanks for the ride, I always enjoy your video.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Yea it’s beautiful land out there!! No drain in the def overflow area, pain in the @#€!!!

[@dmwi1549]

January 2020 Wish their campground near the road closure was open. Looked nice. Winter parking $5 overnight in the Grand Tetons marina parking lot. I thought I was chilly in my truck camper but the folks next to me were in a tent! Nice heated restroom and lot was plowed daily. Shhhh, don’t tell anyone or it’ll be packed next winter!

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Good to know thank you!!!

[@sophiedennison7215]

Did anyone else yell "COWS!" when they passed the cattle ranch ..? No....? Just me ...? Cool. lol

I'll have to say it again i really really like the video's you make! Im kinda jealous also. Enjoy your journey together! Greetings and love from the Netherlands!!

[@JohnWCR]

So enjoying your Vblog. My wife and I are planning a trip this summer to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. She is a teacher and I work from anywhere Verizon signal works, so we are just part time Vanlife. I see you stay in Harvest Host quite often. We will be getting a membership before the summer. I am very interested in places you stayed from Denver to Jackson. We will travel much slower than you as we are older and our van is a VW bus 1982 Diesel Westy. Any suggestions? I know from Denver once you pass Cheyenne its desolate. I think its Hwy 25 that goes from Denver to Cheyenne

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Thanks John! Enjoy you’re adventures!!! Harvest host is great, I’d recommend subscribing to our newsletter from our website to get access to our map of every spot we slept at! Just scroll to the bottom to get it

[@twazoo2921]

Enjoyed the video. I see that you have your light bar on the bumper. I have been debating about putting a light bar on the bumper like yours or up on the roof. Do you like it there and feel like illuminates enough? Thanks and keep filming. Tim in Colorado

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hey Tim! The light bar was a late addition add, for me to put it on the roof would mean I’d have to drill another hole cut through insulation and shiplap (not worth it for me). Also I thought that my solar rack was too far back anyway. Check out Vermont video where we turn it off and on to show illumination

How are you guys making out with the 300ah of lithium? Has it been enough? Thinking about 400ah for my van but we would be using induction instead of propane.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

300 is plenty good for us! Only time it gets down a bit is if we use the hot water heater twice in a row

[@Tbone376]

Did you spray that with linex and did you do it yourself. Brought my truck the line exclamation said they wouldn’t warrantee it because it wouldn’t stick but I really want to do this. Type of preparation did you do.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Yes we did it ourselves, we have a van build episode on it... I’d recommend it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bX7Vn6KXhrR7es0

Is this a trick question? Haha 10 cents?

Taylor, you're so funny. Kevin, what was that you put in your engine at the start of the video and what does it do? The places you visit are so beautiful.

[@dmartil73]

@@atticushexcel9567 Gabriyel, I found your comment/statement offensive. Here is why, in Australia I have not heard of such a thing, and there might be a product here that goes by another name that I am not aware of. Yes, I did 'google' it after I asked the question of 'Kevin' and before your offensive comment. That's why I genuinely asked the question. See, you assumed everyone knows what you know, and that's a big mistake, we are all different and asking questions is how you learn. I am going to assume that you don't know what etiquette is, so this is how you might use it with a stranger. You could have said: a) Dirk, DEF is a fluid used in North America to control certain emissions. Or b) I am surprised you have not heard of it, its a fluid to break down hazardous emissions. See how this sounds so much better than your statement/comment. Next time before you use your fingers to speak your mind, stop and think or was your intention all along to be offensive to a stranger. If the latter is the case, then you might have underlying issues you should take care of. This world would be a better place if people are more kind to each other. If you plan to reply back with another offensive comment, don't bother. I will not reply and waste time I will never get back. But I will leave you with this quote.
