What Happened to the Bonneville Salt Flats? | Buslife Ep.195

- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- We were absolutely astonished to find the Salt Flats in this condition. I mean, it was beautiful, but it was a bit of a shock! Did you know this could happen? We had no idea!
This part of our roadtrip takes us out of Nevada, across the salty lands of Northern Utah, all the way over to Little America Travel Center in Southern Wyoming!

About Us:
Hi! We're Mike & Kerry, the proud owners of a 1992 Bluebird rear engine (pusher), 40' school bus! We named her Bussy McBusface in honor of the RRS Boaty McBoatface travesty!
We built a Tiny-Home-in-a-Bus for full-time living in the most adventure-friendly way possible. Bussy was never meant to be parked in a driveway, waiting for weekend trips or holiday getaways. After we finished the build, we packed everything we kept into the bus and drove away from our old house and into the world of off-grid living, aka boondocking, and endless travel adventures!
Since we planned to be boondocking the majority of the time, we made choices such as; a 100-gallon water tank, an Air Head composting toilet, a 1500w solar power system with 1000Ah in AGM batteries, etc. We'd love to have you stick around and follow us on our journey, from our Skoolie Build Series, to infinite buslife adventures beyond!
Mike & Kerry
Now that you guys have some experience with the bus on the open road for a while it would be awesome to see a video on all the things you would have build differently or things that you've had to change as time has gone on.
I like how your windshield wipers are saying help me help me. I have one like that
🤣
I was a foreman on the crew which build the tunnels. Also we’re in Gold country the biggest gold mines in the USA are between Winnemucca and Elko.
Oh cool you helped build those tunnels! "Thar's gold in them thar hills!" 😂
I love the little video clips of Mamacita! Keep showing her on camera! I'm a cat lover! She's so adorable doing her kitty yoga.
KERRY, I LOVE YOUR HEAD WARMER/HAT. IT LOOKS LIKE A PIECE OF ROSEANN'S COUCH! I JUST HAPPEN TO BE RE-WATCHING ROSEANN NOW AND I COULDN'T HELP NOTICING.
To bad you didn’t get to drive out on the Flats..We were there in Oct and we able to drive our RV on the flats..Was awesome!!!
When I travel with my family I was always fascinated about tunnels I love driving through them I’ll always love the long ones
Great video. We hope the fuel prices get better so we can hit the road soon.
That salt lake is very beautiful like liquid jewelry 😍
And then we have Momasita doing dirt-yoga 😅
LOL, your about due for some new windshield wipers. I didn't know that the salt flats were a seasonal thing either. Great video. Thanks Don
OMG! my family does the same thing with holding our breath going through tunnels!! that's funny! Great video guys!
I love seeing you guys being at places I've been to. Little America is fun. Great breakfast there too
Get you some wipers real soon.... Elksnout!.... Big Tex makes that cowboy look short..
Looks like you need a new front window on the driver side….. might as well replace your wiper blades while you’re at it.
Safety first!!
Thanks for the great videos
Be safe on the road
Might even change out the door glass while your at it!!! 😁
I always thought the salt flats were dry year around! Interesting! Thanks for showing us that!
It was a little bit disappointing but at the same time it was also very beautiful.
I have to say that I'm guilty of that as well... Who knew??
Hi Mike, Hi Kerry, Sounds like I have something in common with your Great Granpa because I lived on the streets of London for many years, from when I was 14 for several years until I met my first wife, anyway thats a long story.. The Salt flats are famous here as well, there has been many programs on our tv about the racing there..Its good to see the three of you doing so well and looking good, take care of yourselves and look forward to seeing you next week.. Love you both..K.
Love following your travels.. I know it was a 23min video give or take, but it seemed like 5min 😂😂
You can’t drive on the flats anytime. Racing is during August and October if it’s not raining.
I've been to the salt flats... I had no clue that it would be flooded at certain times 🤔
RIGHT?? SO WEIRD!!
You need window wipers..lol
My good friend lives in Elco.
When they have snakes hanging off like that, they're called windshield vipers.
BAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! Hilarious!!! 🤣🐍
The Salt Lake, and the golden-brown rocks are gorgeous!
Nice wiper blades dude!
Please be safe with all those glass cracks in the door. safe travels!
went to little america last year in may! i drove my shuttle bus to custer, sd to go see the crazy horse monument and if you go too, you have to pay the $4 and ride the old blue bird bus to the bottom of the monument! it's incredible! mt. rushmore was a huge disappointment, it's so much smaller than you see in videos and in photos... so small it can fit on crazy horse's cheek!!! i think the biggest disappointment about rushmore was there is no museum or anything like that at all, only a gift shop full of crap from china. crazy horse, on the other hand, has a museum that took us 3 hours to go through. it's the size of a small college campus! hope you guys make it to see the crazy horse monument, you wont be disappointed!
Looks like you are heading west.
If you would like to see the westernmost tip of the lower 48, swing by Port Orford Oregon. We run a Cliffside rv parking space that has views unrivaled.
Been watching your stuff for awhile.
If you make it, we will comp you a few free nights at the spot.
We will definitely let you know when we are in the area! Thank you!
When you guys ever get to the East Coast I want to meet you
Great episode! 💞
I love the idea of icecream followed by hot chocolate to warm up. Maybe try that this weekend as we're supposed to get more snow in western NY. 😕❄
Great to see Mama Kitty out and about and hitting the salt water. 💖🐈
-Troy & Aimee
Windshield wipers my friend lol . and next time in phoenix ask AAA bus and see if they can get you some new glass.
Thanks
Great video as always 🙂
But I do feel that you need new windscreen wipers 🙂
My windshield wipers don't work I just use Rain-X
Elko the hometown of Dave Pratt
I see your windshield wipers waving at me [and you].
It's always time for Ice Cream...js
You two are so funny.
If it wasn't for the truck in front of you. You would of opened up your "Horns". (Would of loved to of seen that: Action). Thanks for sharing your videos and awesome adventures. Regards
Hey guys, what happen to that Bus Build you got hired to do…. May I ask ? : )
It fell through but that's okay because we are still traveling.
How’d your door glass get cracked ?
During their build. There's actually video if you go to the build playlist for the door fabrication.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
With your mechanical ability have you considered an oil cooler for the bussy. It could help you on those big grades. Love your videos.
I think about it all the time, actually.
I was there last year at exactly the same time and it was dry af. People driving everywhere.
Time for some new wiper blade
Are you close to finishing the mosaic bathroom ?
Not yet, but Kerry has a WHOLE CLOSETFUL of plates, so when we stop at our next location she'll be getting back to work at breaking and gluing, LOL! Stay tuned! 😄
Yep!!! You need new wipers
Yes, why do we keep procrastinating?? LOL!
My dad raced in the salt flats 🥿
I been to that place in Nevada. Rode my bike there from Salt Lake , just to check off another state. I'm guessing ya'll are going to Colorado.
Aaaah, good guess ~ all will be revealed soon! 😉
Your wipers are shot!!
😁👍🏻❤️
I was a foreman on the tunnels
Just asking because we are pet friendly family around 10 minutes and 20 seconds Mamacita look like she had some red markings over her left shoulder possibly may be a burn not sure not helping anything bad just something I saw in the video
Prefer actually has some orange spots in it because her mother was a calico. They're very faint. You must have a good eye to notice that!
You guys never ask permission to use my white Van in yours salt flat video drone shot. Please send 50.00 to Nomadic Scooter
Ha!
