    I live and work in this part of Idaho and since you were there that fire has burned more than 112,000 acres and is still burning. Many volunteer fire departments from small towns in Idaho have been on the fire to help protect homes and businesses. My brother and nephew are on our local volunteer fire Department (Richfield ID) and volunteered their time for several days on that fire. So far no one has been hurt and they are lifting evacuations as the fire is now burning in the forest and will most likely burn until snow falls. The fire is called the Wapiti Fire. Please be safe out on the road and I hope you love our state of Idaho as much as I do! Cheers...

      Firefighters from Idaho assisted our firefighters here in Oregon at the Durkee fire. 450,000 acres were burned caused by lightning. We people in rural areas are always at risk from Mother Nature but mostly from man.

    My wife and I were sitting in the RV watching this video tonight and when Sondra said "It is a good thing he is wearing orange so the search team and helicopters can find him" we both cracked up! Great video! Sad about the wildfires but the vegetation will grow back. We do pray that the Lord protected the wildlife.

    Interesting video. You probably have one of these maps. It's called a motor carriers Road Atlas. It shows all highways and the road atlas will show whether the roadway is suitable for travel with a big truck. The atlas has maps for all fifty states and Canada and Mexico. There is lots of great information such as low over passes and much more information. The pages are laminated. Generally all truck stops or major travel centers have these road atlas publications. Each year a new edition is published and the last copy I purchased was last year and the price was around fifty dollars. It takes all of the guess work out of whether a high way is suitable for travel with a big rig. National Park and National Forest and BLM managed lands have many recreational opportunities. The western states are definitely my favorite places.

I’m glad that you had left the area before you had to relocate involuntarily. Those fires are no joke. For something that was should have been fairly boring, it wasn’t. Beautiful scenery. Who knew that Idaho was so gorgeous? Sandra,sorry that no bear came up to say hello. Actually that might have been too much. Better luck with wildlife at your next stop.

    Really enjoy your channel, have two questions for you
    1) thought I read most states limit RV's to 65 or 68 feet how do you get by at 72 feet.
    2) I know your RV is not 10 years old yet but getting close. Have you ran into many places that ask this question?

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  Місяць тому

      RV's are definitely in a grey area of the length law. Lots of 45' motorhomes pulling 24' stacker trailers.
      We've never been questioned on the age or condition of our setup. And that's the key issue: what does your RV look like? If its well kept then no issues.

    The Sawtooth Mountains are aptly named, so wild and jagged as they reach for the sky. I'm glad you had a good time just camping and exploring there. Hopefully a good soak will come along and put out those fires, I always worry about the wildlife. Sondra you should make shirts and stickers and such with Camp Hair Don't Care on them! See you next Thursday.

    What an awesome boondocking spot! The waterfall was well worth the hike (at least for you David) not sure if I would have :-). Those power actuators would really come in handy - I am sure you think of that everytime you have to climb that ladder. Sorry Sondra about the fall - blame it on David for dragging you on that trail! Safe travels you two!

      @@bigtruckbigtravels I repowered a shipment.
      The moose antler marks were imprinted on both a pillars.
      The fiberglass hood radiator and all accessories were missing from the block.
      Only the timing cover remained.
      The operator and co driver were still in the hospital a week later.
      Those trucks were governed at 65 miles per hour.
      Its been a few decades since but I do remember it was said they hit the moose at Express way speed. Probably 65 mpg.
      No moose bumper.
