[@billkipper3264]

Years ago on a weekend backpacking trip in Alaska me and three friends were sitting around our campfire after dark when a cow moose walked through camp. Literally right between us and right past the fire. All we could do was stare up at her, totally dumbfounded, as she strolled through and back into the night.

[@markdenney3903]

Hey guys long time patron. Love the episode. My daughter and I did some back country hiking camping and driving near Creede last year. I dropped a little bad news on you a few months ago about some cancer I was fighting. I won. Cancer free now and can't wait to get back out. Your episodes sure have helped through both good and bad times. Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing your new episodes. Maybe one day you will pass near OKC. Would be great to meet you guys. Have a blessed day. Mark Denney

[@stevebrown4734]

Wishing you good health and safe travels.

[@Malc664]

Congrats on winning the fight. Yep, these great videos of the family overlanding help me through it all too. I can't wait to get out there as well. My health is holding me back, but getting there. 👍

[@RickFL2001]

My wife and I love watching your videos. Thanks for sharing. You have a much larger patch collection than I have, lol. We enjoy the places you go and we get to watch your Daughter grow up as well. You both are showing and teaching her things no school ever could. My hats off to you both. God bless and safe travels.

[@Michael_Tran]

Life goal right there. Pack everything up and explore this beautiful earth.

[@wodiah1]

That’s right , save as much as possible and make it happen, true life

[@philiphannum4211]

I've heard that if your wheels get dirty, this means that you had fun. According to your wheels, you had a LOT of fun!! Loved the pictures of the trees in the rain, that was a really good shot. Keep Rollin'

[@LifestyleOverland]

Nothing like a fresh coat of adventure paint!

[@mr8610]

We have a cabin in Creede. Absolutely gorgeous up there. My father in laws parents/grandparents had a homestead there, a lot of family history. Absolutely amazing place to offroad.

[@kevinherndon6963]

I'm another Kevin from Tennessee. My wife and I drove Stony Pass with 2 other families about 20 years ago. The views and the super dark, super clear night sky made for the most amazing star gazing and THE best camping experience I have ever had ... to date.

[@bobmakow55]

As a summer/fall resident of South Fork much of the area you travelled was very familiar. Glad to see you visited the old mines on Bachelor Loop in Creede and the surrounding forest. The Ouray/Silverton Lake City Telluride area is spectacular. Thanks for capturing it on video.

[@PLUTON9475]

Waiting for tomorrow to enjoy a new episode and a new visitor to your camp. 🖒

[@yescavol1637]

I really look forward to these videos. They’re calming and wholesome with wonderful scenery. Thank you for taking the time to make these and share your story.

[@LifestyleOverland]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@jackwalsh1468]

Kevin, I enjoyed the video very much! The song " What would I do without you" A tribute to Sarah and little Miss Caroline. Was very very powerful. Cheers, Mate.

[@kennycollins181]

A great song indeed... a bit emotional

[@TheKPDX]

Wow, you really have upped your game these last two. So nicely put together and rich cinematography to boot!

[@LifestyleOverland]

Thanks!!

[@RhonVanErman]

Really enjoying your adventures, soak every minute! Yesterday our Son was your daughter’s age, now he’s 22. She will treasure every moment you’re making.

[@taioubai6264]

What a cooperative family!

[@roberthart4160]

Oh my gosh!! I found your channel only a few days ago... first comment ... I think I'm addicted to the channel. Sadly, I'm so drained of the every day grind. I so badly want to get out and experience the country, like y'all, with my young son.. it's the reason I bought a Jeep (please don't judge 😁🤣).. in the first place. Just haven't been able to make it happen. Plus there isn't much around North Georgia where we are... maybe I'll luck out and find a way to gain income that allows more time to actually enjoy life, and the backwoods/trails of our beautiful country.. Thank you for the great family friendly content too.. it's truly appreciated. I can't stand watching something with my son and all of a sudden it's tons of language that'll make a sailor blush in shame.. Can't wait to view more! Question ... is that Tennessee tags I see??

[@buzzfreedom5290]

Silverton, Durango, and Ouray used to be my back yard. Man I miss living there! I'm glad you're getting to enjoy all the fantastic jeep trails up there, and the scenery is AWESOME!

[@OatPancake]

I’m still getting used to this channel so every time I see this I click on it so fast but I forget that it’s not coming out till Thursday. 🙃

[@LifestyleOverland]

Haha! We're here now though ;)

[@chereejensen2492]

I see Tennessee tags,similar to Texas...lol

[@kore996]

Sorry to say but I’ve missed a lot of your videos for the past little while because we had a little boy but now I’m back and catching up. Wow how time has flown by! Your little one has grown so much in the last year it’s crazy and I almost didn’t recognize her. Life seems to be put on fast forward and there is no regular speed version of life after you have a kid lol (at least that’s how it feels to me). Thanks for the vids because I’ll never be able to do anything close to what you guys do even though I would love to do it. We have a 5th gen 4Runner Trail edition BUT I also have a spinal injury and driving takes a significant toll on me for pain. Keep the adventure going and can’t wait to see where you go next. Canada.

[@buffalo-bear_adventures]

Colorado never disappoints. Makes me wish we did a better job capturing the silverton area when we went a few years ago. Guess we need to go back.

[@robertforbes6083]

I know some people may talk smack about you guys being sell outs. But I have always loved following your adventures. Please keep it up. You are giving that little girl the most amazing childhood imaginable. She is so lucky to have you as her parents. This channel drives me to give my daughter a taste of what this world has to offer.

[@lemaitrethemonk]

I just installed the twenty four gallon long range America auxiliary gas tank on the 5th gen 4Runner. Thanks for doing the video months back. Based on several suggestions for height and clearance for the departure angle. I chose the smaller tank. Now to install the rear load Bering springs. Safe travels and much health...

[@williamwallace8945]

Love Pagosa Springs. We were there for a week this summer. Headed back to Estes Park this November. These vids make it tempting to quit my job and go overland full-time. 10 more years of work then maybe full-time.

[@misplacedoverland]

My wife and I did Stony in September. It was amazing!! Didn’t quite make it up to Kite Lake but we did spot a Moose on the way back.

[@sparkyofsocal]

I know it sounds crazy and you can research it to confirm. Dryer sheets help repel mice and other little varmints. I tie wrap a few on finder wells and firewall. They are handy in the cab and the tent to help things smell a little better

[@SeeChadRun]

I feel like I get to go camping vicariously through you! Thank you for sharing these videos!

[@Buck1954]

My Texan cousinn has a house in Creed. Pretty country up there. Reminds me of my off-road adventures when I was young in a Toyota 4x4 Delux pickup.

[@hamishtomlinson9094]

Really love your videos mate! Your vibe is awesome! I hope to be able to do this with my kids someday! Watching from NZ!

[@adventuresuntold4822]

I camped 15 minutes fromPagosa springs last summer of a forest road! Best campsite ever because is was nestled in the trees, hidden, and right on the river!!

[@rollylumiguen1662]

wish I can do this with my daughters and my wife.. thanks for the videos. watching from Philippines

[@simpleinstinct]

I need more Colorado in my life.

[@chrisk4617]

Great video ! What a view driving down that mountain !

[@clpetersdorf]

your videos are so much fun, brings back memories of camping with kids. your daughter is a jewel. say, i noticed you didnt tell us where you were when you started.. i always like to know that.. later you mentioned colorado. , and then something Springs.. how bout trying that? also another thing i watch for and listen... is what you are cooking yu almost always do that.. but what was the dish wifey made in the oven?? thank you!!!

[@marianfrances4959]

Love that aspen forest! Snowing here in southern Alberta! 😉🇨🇦

[@EvergreenOG]

You guys are awesome. God is good.

[@MexicoDrones]

Hard to believe it's almost Thursday again. Listo!

[@LifestyleOverland]

Days are flying by!

[@SweetCamper]

Driving Silver and flying the drone at the same time? However you do it, thank you for the effort. Beautiful footage

[@jalilburdeen8698]

So glad you guys went to Kite Lake! That road gets rougher every year. Too bad I missed you. Next time you're in Ouray, holla!

[@trevorkinzer7918]

You are inspiring me to get out. Thank you!

[@scottbungay5351]

your videos just keep getting better ,amazing adventure you guys are on ...be safe

[@e.c.8668]

Hey guys, just found your channel. Got a question. Why'd you go from 1 vehicle with a trailer to 2 vehicles with the RTT? BTW, love how you go into those sections with the songs. Just awesome. And the cooking.

[@Weedweed811]

My name is David. I just ran across your channel while browsing 4Runner over landing. I saw that you guys passed through New Mexico and I was wondering if you had any suggestions on any beautiful public land that me and my wife and daughter can venture off to. I live in Albuquerque, NM. After watching your channel and others, it makes us want to get away for a few days. Thanks for inspiring us to get out with the great content you put out. Have a good one.

[@gffriedman]

Check out his enchanted Rockies trail. That passes east of ABQ. Also check out earlier this season. He does a forest road that goes around the north end of the Valles. Lots of good trails in the Jemez mountains. Go to ranger stations and pick up motor vehicle use maps (MVUM). Those will show you the dirt roads through the forests. Cibola National Forest is ABQ and south. Santa Fe NF is around SF and the Jemez, Carson NF is north near Taos or Chama. (There’s also the Lincoln and Gila NFs if you want to go further south.

[@galensinkey]

You guys are awesome!

[@herminigildosiena9849]

happy family😀

[@hopeulikenudes]

How cool 🦌 Great video

[@Kraxler87124]

Was camping at Alta lake several weeks ago. Great area. I try to get to the Silverton, Ouray are several times a year.

[@jamestiberiuskirk5994]

As always great viewing

[@simonopera1982]

Awesome B roll as always Kev. I could watch your cinematic stuff for hours. Absolute killer song by Chptrs. Has been on repeat since I watched this yesterday. You used another of their songs somewhere in the last month or two but for the life of me I can’t find which one it was

[@withthetruth72]

Simply like to watch caroline.....so adorable..

[@dylans2669]

Have to say from an entertainment standpoint having the whole troop in the same car is a lot more entertaining to watch. Looking in it also seems a little lonely to travel alone.

[@davidmatthews2647]

I live in Cotopaxi Colorado but never been on the trails you were on here. Have you considered putting up grid coordinates of places you are at? It’s not far off and I will be traveling like this full time. Great work, love your videos.

[@peterverschoor1366]

Great video as always; it makes me want to go out and explore... Not sure if it is you or KZbin, but the number of advertisements on this one is a bit much, it makes it very hard to watch.

[@bradshutler9356]

So you came to the town where I live Pagosa Springs. If I would have known I certainly would have come to meet y'all. As always I enjoy watching your travels across our beautiful country and hope they are always safe. Did you notice we have a Kip's here as well? Hope you checked them out.

[@caifan444]

Dude what a video keep up the great work 👌👌👌👌

[@BirdPhish]

Dang!...another great video! Thanks for sharing....

[@JeffCanyon]

Was impressed with the quality of the images from the wildlife camera, which one are you using?

[@titaniumgear690]

Thanks for the 4K!

[@davidcolinstillman5585]

AWESOME FOOTAGE & A LOT OF TIME / WORK MAKING IT PERFECT ! THANK YOU ! BREATHTAKING VIEWS BEAUTY COLORS SCENERY & WILDLIFE & WEATHER ! RAIN OR SHINE IT'S ALL MOTHER NATURE AT BEST . KEVIN IF YOU WERE GOING TO GET AIR BAG KIT FOR AN 1999 XLT F150 EXTENDED CAB 4×4 WHICH ONES WOULD YOU CHECK OUT ? OR THAN NEW COIL SPRINGS IN FRONT & LIFT SPRINGS IN REAR BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BLESS YOU BOTH & CAROLINE ALWAYS ON YOUR JOURNEYS ! ENJOYED ! THANK YOU !

[@mungabrown6543]

Rodents don't like vanilla scented "little tree" air fresheners. Hang some under the hoods, throw 'em under the beds (in storage areas), glove boxes, etc. Wifey & I haven't had issues since we started using them.

[@FlynPig911]

Impressive views at 22:20. How do you not stop and just run out into the green field.

[@theadventurecontinues]

Great episode. You guys are traveling through some beautiful countryside. I have a question, where do you put the cover of the RTT when you remove it? I see you sliding it off the track. I leave mine on and let it hang there. Thoughts? Thanks, looking forward to the next episode.

[@gilstewart4069]

Awesome you guys, I know the area well.... Your sweet angel PRICELESS

[@marklafollett6266]

Our friends accidentally got the rainbow marshmallows and their girls decided that they must be unicorn nuts. The Smores became Big Rock Candy Mountain Oysters.

[@bebenbushcraft]

the nature family uunnnccccchhh i love it

[@xplorefurther]

WE had rats setting up residence and chewing out wires in our then new Subaru Forester, just out of dealer in less than 24 hours. We parked overnight in one of the hotels at the foothill of Zion National Park. Engine light was on. Drove back to dealer in Vegas and we had to pay $400 for replacing some Engine Harness and they said that was not part of Warranty. That was two years ago.

[@OutbackTouring]

What was the large mine building? Looked amazing

Just came across your channel and love it. Just wondered since you are family if 3 and why would you choose to drive 2 cars? I thought it might be easier to ride in the same car.

Another great video! Had to say it here also!

What are you using for heat in the tents? Mr Buddy?

How many miles does silver have? Her ball joints sound like they’ve seen a trail or two. 😂

When you passed the lake, was that in Silverton? We have thought about a Ouray to Silverton trip before and this may have sealed the deal!

Considering he forest fires happening throughout the West and the North,, and the fact that you are in one of the most popular hunting ares in that part of the state during hunting season ,, you are lucky to find anywhere to set-up a family style base camp..and NOT feel like camping in city park.... At least any time after Sept. 1st..
