V12E10: Across the Parcels of Coronado
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- The week commences with a water leak in the Winnebago Revel and a serendipitous encounter with Storyteller Overland. After the van is repaired, I travel south of Tucson to do some exploring in the Jeep. Thwarted by a couple dead-end tracks, I explore Empire Ranch, and then venture into Coronado National Forest where I enjoy a lovely and varied backcountry, rich with primitive camping opportunities and adventure. The episode covers Winnebago repairs, vague pop-culture references, coffee creamers, and video data management.

Every time when i think there couldn't be more to explore in arizona, you bring us another gem. Keep up the great work!
We went to Empire Ranch today because of this video. Very cool historical place, thank you for sharing!
all of these vans coming out takes me back to the 70's when it was vans w/carpeting on the floor and walls! As long as Disco doesn't make a comeback :) 10 years of it was enough
lots of RV rental places are already sold out
@@woof3598 Was on the road yesterday going through Death Valley, all over it, saw a ton of these vans. One sign in Big Pine read, "Rent your van out earn up to 30,000$!"
They're not my thing yet, but they are very amazing.
Shag carpeting flashback

Nice Goonies reference, with the ice cream.
Hey Chris. Thank you for providing some form of escape from the reality of the pandemic through your videos.I consider myself one of the lucky ones., I haven't been affected financially or lost a loved one but have known others who have. Some of our communities have been under lockdowns off and on here in Canada. I do miss travelling south to your beautiful country. Look forward to your weekly videos for inspiration.
The only thing I don't like about your videos it that they are too short and they are over before you know it. Keep em coming, thanks for sharing your continuing adventures as always.
It has always amazed me the RV industry is the only industry I know of where its totally acceptable to expect issues with your brand new RV.
You’ve never owned a Jeep I take it?
@@moots52cm Look at Chris Jeep and rethink your statement. And I do own a Jeep that has had zero issues.
After owning 3 RV’s you come except that you will have issues.
It's what has given me hesitancy with a RV. 200K and it leaks?
@@Happycamper1998 That's the entire point I was making. Its crazy consumers accept this.
22:38 would you like some coffee with your creamer!?? 🤣🤣🤣 ☕️
Agreed. Have a look at that nutrition label on that bottle there Captain Glug Glug.
8oz shot of creamer.lol
#3 scoops of coffee will make a whole pot LOL But then again keep an eye on the blue bread. Love the video but you make me laugh sometimes. Good work on the water leak. I would cut the inlet blue so its shorter on the riser. Did the hikers look SKETCH?????? Carry on Around Bend Oregon out
I forget what book I read it in, but I have always liked this quote "That's not a coffee, that is a confection!"
+1 🙈😋😂
Chris one of these days I’ll cross paths with you. My wife and I were headed towards Bisbee Wednesday morning from just south of Tucson, although not off road as our MINI Coopers are not capable of that type of adventure...
Bisbees an amazing little town, love the fact that it’s nothing like a typical suburban environment...
Stay safe out there.
That’s beautiful country. Well done !
Yep..this is a beautiful country n you always do an awesome job of showing her off..be safe..do something fun today n thanks like always
I guess you used a metal zip tie to secure the regulator because that’s what you had at the time. If I were you I’d replace it with a plastic one as soon as possible that metal one is going to at like a saw blade.
He’s not listening,
He never listens
@@daviddowling9830 his loss.
@@MrGeroth He’ll find out soon enough I guess.
My first thought exactly....doesn't he realize he is tying that with a miniature sawblade? LOL
Well you found the first example of RV quality control. The van and chassis are good but anything RV installed will test your patience and make you wonder why.
I hope you were at a lower elevation come Saturday morning. Most snow we've seen in Tucson in quite some time today!
I find it amazing, no-one either you Chris nor any comments below mention the history of this whole area !! Both Geronimo and Cochise had strongholds in or around here. I have travelled, hiked and camped (tent, not RV) in many very evocative sites that have so much of an atmosphere. Sadly not recognised by all and this is from an oldtimer Englishman from Shropshire !!!
Too true. Those old timey photos of Geronimo and his gang really capture the spirit of the wild west. But they were a brutal bunch. They struck terror throughout a huge swath of northern Mexico and the American southwest.
@@paulsink2800 You forget, this was their land first. Wonder how you might have reacted under those same circumstances. I think that all of the first nations were treated appallingly over the centuries. Same applies to the Aborigines in Australia, exactly the same !! Nothing to be proud of.
@@martinforrester8249 Well Martin...if you're in the habit of slicing off people's eyelids...just because they don't look like you...and staking them down to die a slow horrible death from animals or the elements...I sure hope you don't live anywhere near me or my family.
@@paulsink2800 You didn't answer the question I posed. Anyway Paul, these conversations beat endless moronic conversations of how much creamer he uses. The point I originally made was about the history of the area, good and bad.The fact that the first nations were treated appallingly doesn't change either. Binkers can create a nievety, so people tend to ignore the other side !
Can you not see a vague parallel with the Mexicans coming into the USA and the furore that is causing ?
Solid state drive, not solid state hard drive. 😅
Love the content!
Okay, I wasn’t the only one surprised by the amount of creamer used in this video. Probably should have had an explicit content warning. 🤣 Also, the Cow trying to make a break for it made me LOL! Keep up the great work Chris, I love your channel!
Thank you again for a wonderfully picturesque tour through another beautiful area of North America!
My favorite part of Arizona. Spent most of my youth in all those parts in Boy Scouts and off-road adventures. Thanks for sharing.
“I did butter the bread, on both sides.”
I wondered if you would mention that. Great smile for the day. Jeep on brother!
He does read the comments! Lol
Chad and Paul in the house!
25:28 Thanks a lot Joe 🤦♂️
Beautiful Jeep. Love your adventures.
Oh man... That creamer... You may as well start smoking now :P J/k - enjoyed the video,. I got a Hydroblu water tank which allows for good filtration of water. Whomever came up with the idea of filtering water on the go was a genius! Have a great week!
I have an old KZ 25’ TT with a separate bunkhouse & rear slide out king. It’s pretty much a tiny house, so as a full-timer, I like having the extra room for when my kids visit, and for my guitars, etc. My 06 Chevy long bed work truck fits my Suzuki Bergman nicely, and tows pretty well. So that’s my lifestyle! I enjoy your vids...
I was the one that said hi at the Walmart parking lot today while your in the area you should check out turkey creek hot springs there's one you could just about walk to and one that's a few mile hike but it's beautiful and worthwhile,Thanks for the videos
Classic Goonies reference! Hope there was some rocky road in there 😉
Beautiful tracks and campsites in Arizona. I’m hoping to do a of exploring in AZ this year.
I’m just here for the creamer comments. My wife and i watched this together and were cracking up! Thanks for yet another great video Chris.
I enjoyed it Chris. Take care and stay safe! Your friend in Pennsylvania. Bob
I wondered if that was you I saw on I-1O a few days ago! We were out at that conservation area a couple of months ago. I definitely plan to go back hopefully after some rain to see it all green. Safe travels Chris.
Another great video! Thanks, I look forward to these every week!
Chris keep up the good video content, I been watching for some time now and need to start seeing some of your videos from the beginning.
Really like how much you do in regards to video editing to make it look so good as if you had someone else recording you. Best to you
“I smell ice cream” LOVE the Goonies plug!
Always great vids
Love your videos but you culinarily skills make me laugh. Please keep the videos coming you are an inspiration to many of us. Stay safe.
Another good one ✌️
I see you made it to the Old Pueblo! Incidentally, this is the time of year when the Arizona Trail is most active.
Thanks for sharing great video.
Great audio and video quality. Great job. Was cool seeing Arizona sycamore for the first time. And they were big. Thanks. DaveH Ft Kent, ME
Another great video Chris. Enjoy my home state and safe travels.
Hey Chris..
Thank you for bringing us along.
Say hi to Sterling and Eva fellow UA-cam explorers.
They are in Bisbee..
Should have just chugged the creamer from the bottle! Good lord! 😆
Guzzling
Great video thank you!
Pralines and cream, Mississippi Mud, Chocolate eruption! My Favorite! I hope all is well!
Really enjoying the style of this years episodes:D I have one of your patches on the roof of my patrol, it reminds me to slow down and enjoy the getting there!!! Thanks Chris
I like hearing about your gear used in shooting, editing, and backup. Can you cover more of this when you get a chance. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Just getting started on my own UA-cam channel at 59! Gotta Jeep RTT and an iPhone. Gopro on the way. My area is Vancouver Island BC. Thanks for videos and the inspiration although I’m not living on the road. Just a weekend or long weekend warrior lol.
A nice twist in your filming. Loved it!
Loved the video. Thank you. Look for Bull Springs road. 19 miles long, south of Tucson and goes to Patagonia. Safe travels.
Great episode! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Jo, that was a good word.
A wonderful video thank you 😎👍
Blasted Chris! Now I’m going to have try that creamer u put in your coffee! :) Another great UA-cam post!
Glad it was an easy fix, I was worried you may have had Kitec plumbing!
I like your show very much. From India🇮🇳🇮🇳
Another great video! Great shot of the flex capability of " 🍊ie". Also, great explanation of your video processing and storage space management. I don't think everyone fully appreciates what goes on behind the scenes to produce a UA-cam video. Especially, how often you are staging and retrieving cameras for your B-roll shots. Safe Travels! 😎👍🇺🇸
That cow was hilarious 😂
Excellent video Chris, really enjoyed this - as always.
I’m down in Sonoita for the weekend visiting my sister and we had snow today! Planning to wheel in the Coronado National Forest tomorrow.
Chris, caught the reference to ice cream aroma. All I can say is, "you goonie!"
I was caught up in the van craze in the late 70's with a '78 Dodge Custom model while stationed in the middle of the Arizona desert south of Phoenix. I can't remember it ever leaving paved highways and driveways. I watched a video that was filmed at some car show in SoCal...seems they are popular once again. I used my Dodge van for camping but at KOA's and state park campgrounds. My present vehicle, a Jeep SUV, has 55K miles and only 15K are highway miles.
Great job! Really enjoyed it!
Great Video Chris ,I really like the diversity in the content . When you get to a campsite like you had Wednesday night don't you want to chill out and just stay there for a few days or even a week ? I don't think it gets any better . Thanks for making these videos .
great video
You're in my stomping grounds! Welcome!
Ya that sugar can be addictive. Great episode Chris👍👍👊
Love every episode!
Loved the Goonies reference... I smell ice cream...
Would you like some coffee with your cream?
That Starbucks creamer is my favorite!
There is some free BLM camping with great views in the hills above Bisbee on Juniper flats rd.
Slipped in a Goonies reference. Nice.
It's a STIFF!!!!!!
Was hoping that's what I heard Chris say
Coffee with that creamer? Lol
Great video 👍🏼👍🏼
Hope you’re staying dry. We hit some rain and hail around Ajo the past few days, which has made for an unpleasant week camping!
All this time ,you thought you liked coffee..as it turns out ,you like creamer..
interesting as always! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐thanks!
Hey Chris- two things... 1) I feel confident this is not on your list and I think you should consider it... here in Michigan, on the weekend of April 23, we are having "Jeep the Mac 2021" which will be an outstanding event. Starts in the lower peninsula, crosses the Mighty Mackinaw Bridge and continues out to Drummond Island. Because you are a legendary Jeep figure who casts a long shadow, I know that everybody would be completely fired up to see you. Please head east and join us! 2) The movie commentary was hilarious. I, personally, me- I am a full dork. 100%. So, not only do I get it, were I with you I am sure that I could've carried my half of that conversation.
Saw that Story Overlander in Tucson this past week...it really is a sharp looking vehicle. I'd definitely want one if I ever sell my house and go out on the road. Saw that you were over by Reddington Rd., I've not been over that way, but I hear it has some great hiking. Friend of mine rides his cross bike up there a bunch. I laughed out loud about Snowpiecer...and it's ok, salsa on my sandwich is my definition of eating vegetables. I think my on the road cooking style would be similar.
Hopefully you stopped at Bisbee Coffee company in Bisbee. I've never had single sourced, fresh roasted coffee beans...but I'm hooked. Bonus, it's cheaper than most grocery store "premium" beans. I bought a little grinder and my youngest has to smell the fresh grinds on weekend mornings...Bisbee's freshly ground smells amazing! It's probably some of the best, if not the best coffee I've ever had. Bisbee itself is a really cool town and worth a trip.
Looks like you were over on the Parker Canyon side of the Huachuca's a bit. The road from Sierra Vista that runs through Coronado National Memorial to Parker Canyon lake is a neat day trip (at least for someone like me that doesn't have a lot of offroad experience). While you're down there...highly recommend hiking in Cochise Stronghold, might have some nice waterfalls this time of year...the Chiricahau's are neat, but I don't know what the dispersed camping is like over there...still worth a drive.
I'm sure you've seen it driving through I-10, but Texas Canyon is a really cool rest stop...I think you can get back in there a bit, but I'm not sure. The rock formations make it look like another planet in Star Trek.
If you come back to Tucson, Mt. Lemmon has some dispersed camping, but with the recent snow, I don't know if it's accessible or even open. Still, the sky islands are worth going up to see if you haven't. Anyways, I've already written a book, I see. If you need anything while in the Tucson area, hit me up. I live near the Tortolitas...lots of neat places to explore up there as well, but probably not as unspoiled as the Huachuca's. Fantastic mountain biking and decent offroad day trips.
Yay!
Ha ha ha ha, thanks for buttering the bread, I will sleep better tonight.
Another fantastic episode. I really look forward to these every weekend.
Take a look at the fitting to what looks like the heat exchanger at about 10:17 in the video. When you wiggle the regulator the red hose is turning in the fitting like it might be loose. Future leak.
Be sure and check out the Chiricahuas!
That's the stronghold of Geronimo, should anyone be interested, rather than excessive commentary 're Creamer in coffee etc...
Glad episode is out, been waiting
Edit: Also, just saw last week's video. 32.51226686825025, -110.99618057038472 . Decent area to find a basecamp for your next editing cycle. Close to civilization, but plenty of places to disperse camp and explore. Beautiful area and near my favorite mountain bike trail (Honeybee Canyon/Rail X Ranch). From here, you can get up and into the Torts and find some pretty neat spots...probably nearly deserted during the week, with a few offroad vehicles running around on the weekends.
I wonder how much a permit costs to cross the private land?
Tectonic plates shift about 1 in. (2.5 cm) per year.
Good video. 👍🏻
SO MUCH CREAMER
lol he just kept pouring.
That’s what she...
Awesome video! Loved Coronado National Forest! Have a good weekend w Shannon! 🥾🥾🙃
Interesting I’m staying at my nieces near Bisbee I thought I saw you fueling up in Sierra vista
Much better camping further in the pass than where he was at....Revel wouldn't make it though....
Would you like some coffee with your creamer? 😂
You have to try all gone Pizza... Fort Garland Colorado. best in the county.
Ah, I was curious at 29:20, is it going to be a burger or pasta and it was pasta, hooray, LOL.
Love your videos but always wanted to ask for making coffee (Hot water) why not just use an old school Hot Shot water boiler? Would it pop the inverter?
CO2 tank for FAST air up. The pumps wear out, so use pump as backup....?
You're on my turf this week. Be sure to checkout the Dragoon Mtns north of Tombstone.
Then why not mention the Cochise stronghold was in the Dragoons? Does no- one care of the HISTORY of this whole area ??
@@martinforrester8249 I would assume anybody that would explore, especially for a living, would do a few minutes of research to see what is in the area. I moved here a year ago and we're been all over the area. Want to guess how I knew where to go?
@@glennkelly9975 EXACTLY. I'm not trying to be difficult but there is SO much history here, it frustrates me. All these benign comments about creamer in coffee !! To continue for this vlog to grow and develop, Chris should read and learn from such comments or else intelligent people will get bored!!
Great videos! Been binge watching for a couple of hours! I hope to be hitting the road like this when I retire in 3 or 4 years at 66. Single female here. I do wonder though...when you're out like that in the desert, what would you do if you broke down? That would always be my biggest fear.
Thank you for excellence!
I am 67 ,like to follow your adventures!
@@conniewaite1996 - I do plan on starting a channel of my travels and experiences Connie. Perhaps in the future you'll be able to catch me. But its a few years off yet.
Thanks.
Chris has the Garmin inReach when he doesn't have any signals.
@@Hard_Car_Life I will be around!
I have the jeep,but sadly I have a husband too
When we start up a nuclear power plant we do low power physics testing to try and make sure everything is fix/ installed correctly and we have Murphy’s Law corralled. Same with you RV before you leave home operate all systems to the extreme. 🤑🤣😂😅
