Thanks again Ruben. We have our pick: high mountains, standard mountains, high desert, low desert, river valley, plains, and lakes. I love it here!! My favorite is where the desert meets the mountain treeline.
You nailed it buddy. We are fortunate to have a large variety of riding terrain in New Mexico. I always say you can stand in each quadrant of NM and it looks different. I would have to agree with you in the desert landscape meeting the desert. So many cool canyons are ready for us to explore. Thank for reaching out and commenting. Have a great weekend.
Seems awfully strange that New Mexico would get snow before we do (western Canada). You probably got your production crew to make fake snow for the video - lol - - - 11,450 feet? WOW! Can't say I've ever camped at that altitude. That's awesome buddy! - - - 20:57 - For all the folks who didn't understand why Reuben was okay with leaving the gate open, here's an explanation: At this time of the year it's no problem because the cattle have already been rounded up and taken back down to the lower pastures, but in the summer we should always close the gate because in the time it takes us to go up there and back, an entire herd of cattle could escape, costing a rancher thousands of dollars. And if you were paying attention, you'd know that Reuben closed the gate behind him when he came down, so next spring when the cattle get released back into the area, they can't get through. Good job Reuben! - - - It's a shame your CanAm prevented you from continuing on, but better safe than sorry. - - - Excellent video bud! Thanx for sharin'!
Lol, man I had a crew up there with snow guns to change up the scenery. It came out good haha. It's a high elevation thing which is why there is snow already. This is the only range in New Mexico that gets a lot of snow. The other ranges get snow, but no where near this section. There will be drifts through June up there and even July in the neighboring peaks across the way. High elevation camping is wild. It gets cold even in the peak of summer lol. I am glad you pay attention buddy. Cows are no longer a problem at this elevation. Ranchers have taken them back because nothing would survive the winter. Everything heads into lower elevation. So you are right, I would have closed the gate otherwise if seasons where different. It's a shame I couldn't explore other branches of trail out there. There is always another day to ride and film the canyons below or other ridges. Thanks for watching Q. Take care my friend.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures . . . GREAT, now YT has stopped notifying me of replies to my comments also. (F*** I hate Google!, but YT is the only game in town, so I guess we're stuck with them . . . sigh🙄)
Lol, I know what you mean. All sorts of weird crap happens now. Missing comments, no notifications, and who knows what else haha. Take care buddy. See you on the next ride.
Well good!!! I didn't put out the first SNOW video! HAHAHA AWESOMEly beautiful adventure, my friend! We love your fall colors, too! It does look cold, tho! Chili cheese dogs sure do a good job of warming you up on a cold adventure! Man that wind was crazy!!! Fantastic video, brother!
Hey there brother! I know right? New Mexico snow video? It all has to do with mountains and high elevation. Otherwise in the lower elevations and valleys it is warmer and more tolerable. I will be making chili cheese dogs on the campfire again in the future. Easy and delicious in my nature of camp food. Thanks for watching bud. I saw you dropped a video and I will be catching up on it today. Take care!
I absolutely love this area. It is a beautiful mountain range that is very picturesque. It seems like every which way you look there is some awesome scenery to check out. I hope you can make it out and ride one day. That would be super cool! Thanks for watching and take care. Stay safe and keep on exploring buddy.
What an awesome video buddy! Nice camp spot there too bad the wind had to mess with you all night. Good thing you had the water in your boiling pot already. I don’t blame you on calling it a trip after one night with the issues with your quad. Wouldn’t want to be out there solo like that and break down. Wow! The wind was crazy there on the summit! Thanks for taking us along.
Having water in a pot to warm up right away is something I learned a long time ago when I had a freeze ice up all my water. So now I winterize water and always fill my cooking pots lol. I am glad to have had an opportunity to get out and ride. It is a shame the ATV did what it did. For some reason the light is off and all checks out fine. So I am stumped to what happened. I'll tell you what, it was a windy time out there lol. But I still enjoyed myself. Thanks for watching. Take care buddy.
Thanks brother. All is going well. Family and I are doing well and we are also getting into the outdoors as a family. My boys love getting into the mountains and looking around. Thanks for asking. Take care and I hope all is well you way.
Hey Buddy ! Sorry I'mlate to the party. man what beautiful scenery on the ride to camp. I didn't know NM had forests like that, I thought you were riding i my neck of the woods haha (until I saw the shot with all the mountains and stuff lol) Camp and supper looked good, just a FYI: you have to watch heating food up in those can's, sometimes they have a wax on the inside of the can to protect it, and it can get in your food when heated. Good call on the leaving early, it's better to be safe than sorry. Plus you can always go back another day. Thanks for taking us along, Cheers my friend !
Hey bud. I loved the scenery in this section of the forest. It does have a look and feel of what you ride in for sure. The crazy thing about New Mexico is the landscape is so diverse that literally every quadrant of the state looks different than other parts. I think over winter when our forest closes up I am going to explore some volcanic areas of the state. I have not shown this yet. Thanks for the heads up on the chile can with wax. I'll remember that for the next time. I narrowed it down with the ATV. I looked around and inspected it and couldn't find anything. So I spoke to my dealer and asked if he had come across an engine light coming on and off. He said it could be an early warning about your battery. So I pulled out my voltmeter and bingo. Volts were down so I replaced the battery. I think the cold night did it. I was about -5 degrees F in the morning with wind chill which is when the light came on. The good thing is in my gear I always carry a portable battery jump starter so if it happens I could at least start it. Anyways, thanks for watching buddy. Have a good weekend and cheers.
You are so right about being up in high altitude and less oxygen. I think our highest altitude where I can go with my atv is around 1640 feet, so I will never experience altitude sickness. But people should also be aware that cooking temperature is different up there than down by the sea. You did the right thing to don't risk it with your atv, check engine light can be serious business. But you had a nice camping adventure, and I would just freeze when it's -11c even when I'm used to the freezing cold 😆 That was a brutal wind at that top, I can just imagine how cold your body are after a few minutes there.
Altitude sickness is something to not play around with. In severe cases people can be hospitalized. But you are right about the cooking temperature as well. Plus even your cooking stove is affected by altitude. I am glad I decided to go home. There is no telling what could have happened up there if I stayed. Wind chill is nasty. I was really cold in the wind and I was only up there for about 10 minutes. Once I got down in elevation what a difference that made. At least you know what I am talking about. Take care my friend. Have a good one.
It was wild windy up there lol. I have a zero degree bag and a thermal suit I get into to sleep and keep the cold off. It does well in all the times I have used this combo. I am glad I got off the mountain and home. But I loved the color of the aspens changing. Thanks for watching. Have a nice evening.
Yeah man. I don't regret my decision to call it at all. It would have been a long hike to find someone to help me out. I figure take care of my self first and come back another time. It will always be there. I appreciate you watching bud.
Another Great video, A warm fire and cold beer and some Chili dogs mmmm...wish i was there Cold Morning -hot coffee sets up the day Check engine light , up here in Canada when its cold and your ATV is stored in doors like a shed .we find that check engine will light up when oil gets cold and a bit of condensation , the check light goes away when ATV builds up enough heat. Keep safe Brother Great VID. Great view nice drone footage.
Man It would be awesome to have you come along for a day of riding, camping, and enjoying the outdoors. I love cold morning coffee. I appreciate the information on the ATV check engine light. Perhaps that is what it was. It was 12 degrees that morning and a 25 mph wind so wind chill had to be somewhere around -5 C. I'll keep that in mind and will have to pay attention to that in the future. Our high mountains are cold and snow pack gets deep up there. Not sure how many more times I will make it up there before they close it. So I will remember this if I do make it up there again before the season shut us down for mountains rides. Thanks for watching bud. Take care.
Hey there. I am glad to have made it out with no issues. I have looked over my ATV and can't find anything. I wonder if low battery volts and cold had anything to do with it. Anyways, I am glad you enjoyed the video and fall color. It was a beautiful site to see. Take care and have a nice day!
Winter camping is awesome for sure. As long as you have the right gear and attitude you'll get through it and enjoy doing it. Once the forest service closes, it will be desert cold camping next. Take care bud.
Wow man that wind looked brutal for sure!! Good call cutting the trip short. You can't chance a mechanical break down when you're in weather like that. You picked another beautiful camp spot. It would be awesome to camp at the higher elevations like New Mexico has. Awesome video buddy 👍
That wind was brutal lol. I could of help a sheet of plywood and most likely would of went airborne haha. But man to have a mechanical breakdown would have really sucked. I would have been an all day mission trying to get help. But high elevation camping is super enjoyable. It can be cold year round, but so peaceful and awesome. Take care brother.
Here in New Brunswick Canada we get lots of snow but our highest mountain (hill to you) is about 2680 feet, highest in the Maritimes. I'm fascinated and awed by your terrain. It gives me vertigo just to watch some of the trails you drive. Nice videos, look forward to watching more.
Hey there. I love the Canada scenery in the NB area. I watch many channels in your region and enjoy it. It's so different from my area. Our higher elevations here in my state can get a lot of snow above 10000ft. Not so much in the lower elevations. But you are right about the vertigo feeling. I also get it when riding routes near cliff edges. Thanks for watching and I hope to continue hearing from you.
Sure is a beautiful area to camp in. I moved South to avoid the cold but I do remember the feeling of a fire and hot food when it's cold out. Stay safe. Good job on the editing.
Hey there! I hope all is well and you are doing well. I understand you move to the south to avoid the cold weather. As winter moves in more I will be camping in lower elevations in the desert sections of New Mexico. So it will not be near as cold. Thanks for watching and take care.
Thanks buddy. I think we both are fortunate to have some pristine country to ride in and I love the mountain west. Nothing beats riding some trails and enjoying the views. Take care buddy. Thanks for watching.
I hear you on that buddy. I would not of been a fan of walking more than 15 miles. And then to continue more up the trail the next day would have made it worst if I broke down. Thanks for watching and have a good evening.
That was gorgeous drone footage at the top of that mountain, although the price you paid was freezing and shivering! Hopefully that engine code was very minor. We can't be having your 570 breaking down and impacting your videos! ;-)
It turns out that the battery cable was coming lose. I was able to fix it when I was at home. But I am glad I was able to enjoy a night up there. This is a beautiful range and unfortunately the area might have been destroyed in a wildfire. I have not had a confirmed report though.
I appreciate it brother. I love putting together videos and sharing the outdoors with you all. Life is good outside and peaceful. It is a home away from home. Take care and I hope all is well.
I hate wind!! Especially at elevation! Lol! Great trip! I used to camp at the base of Crestone Needle in the Sangre de Cristo range of southern Colorado when I was young and brave (dumb and invincible?!). Cold, wind and elevation are no joke, but sure hard to beat the views! Hope the check engine light was a simple fix! 👍
You know exactly what I mean about the wind and elevation lol. It is a beautiful view from the top, but the wind and cold will leave an impression also haha. The Sangre De Cristo mountains are awesome. This mountain chain is huge. I have no idea what the engine light was all about. For it to come on for few minutes and then turn off has me stumped. I have looked over the atv and have road it on a close to home trail and nothing seems wrong. I'll be changing the oil at the dealer this week and I hope they can give me answers. Take care buddy. I appreciate you watching.
I would love to get with maritimer. I think that would be so awesome to ride and enjoy a good trip out camping. Bike seems to be okay. Not sure why the engine light came on. But I took it serious despite it turning off. Take care.
Hey Charlie. All seems to be well with the ATV. I have no idea how to explain the hiccup it had. I'll be getting an oil change today and will ask the shop to look it over as well. Take care and thanks for watching.
beautiful area as usual Ruben! You really toughed out that cold. I'll be in Tucson for the winter but it may be too cold for me to ride in the mountains. I'll sure keep watching the awesome vids you put out. Keep them coming.
Tucson is beautiful. Great choice to spend the winter season. It was super cold up there lol. Mainly it was a wind chill issue on top of cold temperatures. Heading up that high in elevation is so different than the valleys. I love it. Take care and have a nice weekend.
I had an awesome time. I can't wait to get back out and do some camping. I appreciate you watching. Have a nice week ahead also. So far all is going well. I hope the same for you too.
I wish I was there with you. Such an awesome country I hope to see one day. Atv camping is something I just haven’t had an opportunity to do yet. Another great video!
Hey there! Company would be awesome! I hope you can get out and give ATV camping a go one day. I find it to be very enjoyable. I love the freedom you have and how mobile you can be having an ATV. Its easier to travel into tight spaces and find some of the most isolated and secluded camp spots. Thanks for watching.
Thanks brother. After doing a thoroughly inspection on the ATV I narrowed it down to be a battery issue. I spoke to my local dealer and explained what happened and he said right away battery. So I grabbed a new battery and slapped it in. I hope this will do it. Thanks for watching and have a nice weekend and enjoy the season as well.
Hey ya Ruben, hope all is well, we’ve not heard from ya in a while, ? I’ve been c keepin an eye on La Palma volcanoe, an now huge storm systems up north creating havoc with peoples lives. Hope the weather down south is a bit better. All the best Paul Uk 10.55gmt
Hey there buddy. All is well, thanks for asking. I hope all is well and people are pulling through okay. That is terrible when things make matters worse for peoples lives. All is well in the south. We have been warm and dry. I guess I can’t complain one bit because the outdoors don’t feel bad. Take care Paul, I hope you have a great holiday weekend! Happy Thanksgiving.
I agree bud. Nothing is worst that having a break down, but then having a break down and having to walk more than 15 miles would have super sucked! Thanks for watching. I hope your weekend was awesome!
Great views of that area for sure.... should of brought your kite.... would of been a good time. Sad you didn't have a good time, but from your voice, it still sounds like you had a great time up there and being out.
Lol, a kite would have been awesome. I had a wide open meadow near camp to fly it in with no risk of trees. All in all it was a great time out despite my ATV acting up. I can't wait to get back up there and run some other trails. Take care buddy. Have a good afternoon.
Nothing is turning up for the ATV. I wonder if it was a cold wind chill hiccup that was making the ATV not happy. Plus now I am getting a low voltage reading in my ATV, so maybe a new battery will do it.
Nice im jealous not been able to ride lol best you came back when by your self like you said long walk out . Now you have a excuse return lol . Ever thought about build a lean to put your tent in would break wind and keep fair amount cold out . Sure heck was windy crazy for sure xtra cloths great to have . At least im getting watch all you guys get out helps some what 🤔 well kinda lol maybe week i can be out & so looking forward to great video bud 👍
Dude that walk out would have been a long walk and it would have sucked lol. I am glad you are able to enjoy the videos through us. I hope you get out soon for some riding. I love your scenery! I actually thought about a tarp to protect from high windy weather. While the tree line protected me, it was still felt for sure. If I would have known the summit was going to be that windy, I would have put on my extra clothes I had lol. It was so windy on the summit and very cold. Easily -5 C wind chill. Once I got off what a difference it was. I look forward to getting up there again and exploring. Take care buddy!
Looks like fun buddy hope the bike is ok , you and maritimer need to get together for a week but sucks your so far apart lol anyway keep up the great videos 👍
Man I would love to do a collaborative video with maritimer. It would be super epic to ride with him and to cook up a sweet dinner. We are far apart, but perhaps at one point we can make that happen in the future. I would be open for the idea with him. Take care bud. I appreciate you watching and support. I didn't find anything wrong with the bike yet. Someone suggested maybe cold weather and condensation may have triggered it.
Hi Ruben, Paul from U k just got my mornin fix for trails an great advice. Herd some time ago that the trail systems can go from Canada to New Mexico, if true you must be lookin at 10k miles plus of trails. Need to win the lottory an get a 6x6 plus trailer an spend sometime moochin around, Just increadablel work on the vids I’ve let some Diabled friends know because it’s so great to wake up an watch the show instead of boris Johnson belching his bs on the news . Great work look forward to next trip with ya Be safe be well be lucky. Happy trails.
I don't know how I overlooked this comment. That would be an adventure of a life time to travel from Mexico to Canada. Yes a lottery winning would need to happen to buy all the gear I would need to show how beautiful the world is. I am glad you guys are enjoying my videos. It makes me happy when I hear how my videos impact the lives of people who are disabled or going through a hard time. Blessings my friend. Have a great day!
Beautiful scenery! Glad you mad it out and can check out your Atv when you get home, it would suck to get stuck way out there. I went out for a 117 mile ride in Southern NM yesterday and my biggest worry is getting stuck out in the middle of nowhere by myself with no cell signal. You made the right call. Best part of the video was you laughing up at the peak at the extreme conditions. Another great video
I hear you my friend. I have taken a look at the ATV and nothing appears to be wrong with it. I am going to run it to my local dealer for an oil change and I will have them look over it some more. Its strange that it came on then back off within a few minutes. I am glad you know how NM is with cell signal. Some of these places aren't visited for a day or 2 so getting stuck is a major problem in these remote areas. I need to head south to ride and explore. There is so much of the state I need to travel to. We are lucky to have a large riding area and awesome terrain. Man that summit was wild lol. I was laughing at how hard the wind was. It must have been 40ish MPH haha. Good times. Take care buddy.
Your CL came in due to freezing conditions overnight, I have a 2017 and when temps are freezing or excessive heat out , your ECU freezes or overheat. Nothing to worry about.
Really beautiful view from the top! Hopefully everything was OK with the ATV. That's the thing with CELs, they can be basically anything, from no concern at all to very serious. My Cherokee's CEL will turn on during wildfire season because the smoke in the air presumably triggers some warning about lean intake. The fall scenery was just amazing. I bet that tent was cold despite the fire, and I know how the wind can take any comfort out of the air around you.
So far nothing appears to be wrong with the ATV. I have no idea why the light would come on and turn off a few minutes later. I inspected it and I can't find nothing. But I am glad I didn't risk it any more and went home. That is so odd about the light coming on with smoke. I have never heard of that before. The views and scenery were amazing. It is wild how climbing up 400ft in elevation puts you into some brutal wind like I was in. I stayed there for only 10 mins or so before I could take the gust anymore. Thanks for watching. Take care buddy.
Yeah man, I was a bit bummed the ATV check engine light came on. The strange thing is it hasn't come on since and I have done a walk around. I have no idea why it would come on for a few and turn off. Who knows if high elevation and cold had anything to do with that. Take care my friend.
I see how you are, flashing those pretty colors all up in my face, lol. I'm with ya buddy, I enjoy the extreme green in spring, and the color change in the fall. It was kind of a meh changeover here this year, I'm not sure why, but you have that sometimes. You ever start a fire with the rubbing two sticks together method? I have a friend who does. I'm not that patient, haha. There's alot to think about with alpine camping. I'm pretty out of my element with this stuff. I didn't know campfire works differently either. I've snowmobiled out in grand Mesa, CO and felt how that affects me. Never thought about the fire. It's been a long time since I've been out that way. No idea how that would affect me now. I really should work on losing some weight... ...and then you flash chili cheese dogs in my face. WTF, lol. That's so troll. Windchill is such a kick in the balls. 0 degrees isn't terrible. 0 and windchill sucks. I'm a pussy. You're making a good decision bud. The cold does weird shit to us and machines. The check engine light could have been due to low voltage from the cold start maybe. People come up here snowmobiling, not thinking about temperature, and they'll end up broke down somewhere in the middle of nowhere and freeze to death. I have a sled, maybe I'll make sled videos again this year, idk. The sad part is, it's not a good idea to do that stuff alone if I'm honest, but really I typically ride alone, so it feels like a "do as I say, not as I do" thing. But I'm also local and know where everything is. That wind is no joke, ROFL! That was funny. Hey Ruben, I'm always glad to join you on your adventures bud. You take care buddy!
What's up buddy!?! We also have years that the leaves don't change as good. I think it all has to do with the climate change that is going on. I can remember in my younger days that the leaves were fairly consistent. I hear you on the weight, I am beginning the process of trying to change my weight also. It does have a small impact when you are higher up in elevation with breathing and moving around. I am wondering if the cold wind had something to do with the ATV. The hiccup hasn't repeated it's self at all, however, I am now seeing a low amp light come on so a battery is due for sure. Perhaps this was the case. Sledding would be awesome. To get into good snow I have to get into the mountains at least above 8500ft to get into consistent snow play. But the problem here is our forest close access to the forest so it would all be a fairly long foot walk lol. I hear you on going solo. I don't see that changing anytime soon either. Although it would be nice to have a riding buddy. Man them chilidogs were freaken awesome haha. I'll have to make this again in the future. Easy, quick, and delicious. Take care buddy. Talk soon!
That is sweet riding out there. I know I would love that place to ride. Hopefully some day I will go out that way to ride and ATV camp. Cool content 4 sure. Thanks inspired to go ride those mountains well worth it. Five 🌟's on my book...
It's not to far from you home either brother. I think it would be a 1 drive maybe a little more. It takes me about 2.5 hrs to get here. You will love the views and drive around this area. Its a nice area for sure. I need to make my way up north and explore. Now that winter is coming I might have to wait since the forest gets closed. Take care bro.
You look like a great guy to atv camp with. Get a Garmin InReach good investment just in case. From Canada thanks for video. Keep kidneys warm makes all the difference in the chill. Cheers
I have been thinking about getting the Garmin Inreach. It’s a great investment. My friend took it with us on a backpacking trip one time and was able to reach out when we had no service. Thanks for watching and I hope to have you a part of the channel. Have a good weekend. Cheers.
Just tuned in to the channel , the elevations youre dealing with are amazing. I live on the west coast of British Columbia Canada . that high here would be nothing but rocks & ice. What tent are u using on these trips.?Cheers , and keep er on 4 wheels.
I would love to see the far northern Rockies. I am at the far southern tip of the Rockies here in New Mexico. I am using a Marmot Catalyst tent on my trips. It’s a sturdy build for wind and does well when it snows and rains. Thanks for watching bud.
I have heard about hand warmers for your ATV. Do you use it? So far, I ride with a -30 degree pair of water proof gloves and do well. But hand grips that warm would be nice also.
Need a bit of information from you if you can help sir. In one of you're videos I noticed a hitch cargo rack you had attached to youre unit. It looked great. How much weight did you put on it and did it at all affect youre steering for youre trail runs.
Hey there. My honest opinion about the cargo rack is I personally didn't like it. I loved having extra space to add things. However, the rack would drag in places that the trail would throw obstacles in you way. The other thing is is added to much rear weight causing the front to not steer as great. For what it was, I made it pretty far in on rocky and bumpy terrain. Thanks for watching bud.
Hey buddy. That is super awesome. I use a Marmot Catalyst 2 person tent along with my Nemo sleeping bag and thermarest sleep pad. Enjoy your trip and be safe.
Thanks man. I am using the Jonas 1.3 Gallon gas pack from Amazon. Literally the plastic swelled a few days ago and cracked on me. I was using the gas can for about 3 years prior to this happening. I ordered a new gas pack today. I went with a 2 gallon rotopax. Thanks for watching.
Hey allo Ruban, we’ve missed ya in UK! Looks cold an nasty night? Ok, would you have a 6x6 an what one for the kind of trailing you do? Paul 16.45 gmt Uk appy Xmas an New Year22 everyone. Feliz Navidad an appy hollidays
Hey Paul. It was a cold windy night for sure. It makes me appreciate everything we have at home. I am sure you can take a 6x6 up here. But where I live they are not popular so they can be hard to find if you wanted one. ATV and SXS are the popular offroad machines. I hope you have a great Xmas and a great New Year! Take care and enjoy!
I had a zero degree bag and a thermal base layer that I slept in. It was a comfortable set up. I didn't sleep cold, but the wind kept banging the tent which kept me waking up often.
The trail head for this location is near the town of Tererro, NM. If you look up Elk Mountain in New Mexico you will find lots of good information. The unfortunate thing is last year a massive forest fire started near this area so I am not sure if the area is burned down or what damage was received.
Hey there. I would be happy to send you a sticker free of charge. My email is monzanoman at gmail. We can exchange personal info there. I really appreciate your support. Take care and have a great day!
I narrowed it down. I talked to my dealer and asked him if he has heard of a check engine light coming on and then going away. He said it could be a battery voltage. So I tested my battery voltage and it was a little low, but enough to still start. So I’ve slapped in a new battery and I should be good to go now.
No shame in bailing on camp i had that happen about a month ago I went to camp on my atv got camp set up but it was so hot and the mosquitoes were so bad I bailed
Man I hate pesky mosquitoes. I would have bailed out as well. You can't even enjoy yourself being bite by them. I have no idea how they people on naked and afraid can deal with that day and night. I would go crazy lol. Take care buddy. I appreciate you watching.
Hey bud just thought I’d reach out an see if you guys felt the quake 6.2 off the coast of Pretoria B safe b lucky b well an hopefully have a great Xmas an New Year22. Paul 00.25 gmt Uk cheers Oh I got a whole load of arc people in Eastern Europe etc. Some of them are like you, great open travel in. Let me know an I’ll pass them on. Bye bye Paul
We didn't feel the quake at all. I hope all people who were affected are doing okay and well. Take care and have a nice Christmas and New Year. Take care.
I am wondering if the cold weather might have had a part in what was happening. I can't get the light to come back on and I have checked over the atv also. Not sure happened.
Great video thought you had stopped like people have. Fall is the best time to ride for me also. I have videos on my channel. Not very good videos but you can see Washington state. The mountains are great. Worktoride outdoors Only if you want don’t have subscribe or anything.
Hey there. I am not sure why I didn't get notified of your comment. I appreciate you watching and leaving me a comment. I will drop by and check out your channel. I am sure Washington State has some good scenery and fall riding. Take care and I appreciate you watching.
Thanks again Ruben. We have our pick: high mountains, standard mountains, high desert, low desert, river valley, plains, and lakes. I love it here!! My favorite is where the desert meets the mountain treeline.
You nailed it buddy. We are fortunate to have a large variety of riding terrain in New Mexico. I always say you can stand in each quadrant of NM and it looks different. I would have to agree with you in the desert landscape meeting the desert. So many cool canyons are ready for us to explore. Thank for reaching out and commenting. Have a great weekend.
Seems awfully strange that New Mexico would get snow before we do (western Canada). You probably got your production crew to make fake snow for the video - lol - - -
11,450 feet? WOW! Can't say I've ever camped at that altitude. That's awesome buddy! - - -
20:57 - For all the folks who didn't understand why Reuben was okay with leaving the gate open, here's an explanation: At this time of the year it's no problem because the cattle have already been rounded up and taken back down to the lower pastures, but in the summer we should always close the gate because in the time it takes us to go up there and back, an entire herd of cattle could escape, costing a rancher thousands of dollars. And if you were paying attention, you'd know that Reuben closed the gate behind him when he came down, so next spring when the cattle get released back into the area, they can't get through. Good job Reuben! - - -
It's a shame your CanAm prevented you from continuing on, but better safe than sorry. - - -
Excellent video bud! Thanx for sharin'!
Lol, man I had a crew up there with snow guns to change up the scenery. It came out good haha. It's a high elevation thing which is why there is snow already. This is the only range in New Mexico that gets a lot of snow. The other ranges get snow, but no where near this section. There will be drifts through June up there and even July in the neighboring peaks across the way. High elevation camping is wild. It gets cold even in the peak of summer lol.
I am glad you pay attention buddy. Cows are no longer a problem at this elevation. Ranchers have taken them back because nothing would survive the winter. Everything heads into lower elevation. So you are right, I would have closed the gate otherwise if seasons where different. It's a shame I couldn't explore other branches of trail out there. There is always another day to ride and film the canyons below or other ridges.
Thanks for watching Q. Take care my friend.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures . . . GREAT, now YT has stopped notifying me of replies to my comments also. (F*** I hate Google!, but YT is the only game in town, so I guess we're stuck with them . . . sigh🙄)
@@quaddingsous I was thinking the same about the snow... Till I realized that almost 1/4 of Montana has snow and we don't.....
Lol, I know what you mean. All sorts of weird crap happens now. Missing comments, no notifications, and who knows what else haha. Take care buddy. See you on the next ride.
Well good!!! I didn't put out the first SNOW video! HAHAHA AWESOMEly beautiful adventure, my friend! We love your fall colors, too! It does look cold, tho! Chili cheese dogs sure do a good job of warming you up on a cold adventure! Man that wind was crazy!!! Fantastic video, brother!
Hey there brother! I know right? New Mexico snow video? It all has to do with mountains and high elevation. Otherwise in the lower elevations and valleys it is warmer and more tolerable. I will be making chili cheese dogs on the campfire again in the future. Easy and delicious in my nature of camp food. Thanks for watching bud. I saw you dropped a video and I will be catching up on it today. Take care!
good vlog and really love it. see you in Bali indonesia
Thanks! 😃
Looks like ur blessed with some of the most picturesque trails I've seen. Have to ride there someday. Thanks for sharing. Ride safe
I absolutely love this area. It is a beautiful mountain range that is very picturesque. It seems like every which way you look there is some awesome scenery to check out. I hope you can make it out and ride one day. That would be super cool! Thanks for watching and take care. Stay safe and keep on exploring buddy.
Great travel vlog and wonderful camping upload! Best wishes, Elly 😊❤️
Thanks for watching and commenting on my video. I am glad you enjoyed it.
What an awesome video buddy! Nice camp spot there too bad the wind had to mess with you all night. Good thing you had the water in your boiling pot already.
I don’t blame you on calling it a trip after one night with the issues with your quad. Wouldn’t want to be out there solo like that and break down. Wow! The wind was crazy there on the summit!
Thanks for taking us along.
Having water in a pot to warm up right away is something I learned a long time ago when I had a freeze ice up all my water. So now I winterize water and always fill my cooking pots lol. I am glad to have had an opportunity to get out and ride. It is a shame the ATV did what it did. For some reason the light is off and all checks out fine. So I am stumped to what happened. I'll tell you what, it was a windy time out there lol. But I still enjoyed myself. Thanks for watching. Take care buddy.
Good to see you again Ruben. I hope the family is doing well and everything is going good. Hope to see another video soon.
Thanks brother. All is going well. Family and I are doing well and we are also getting into the outdoors as a family. My boys love getting into the mountains and looking around. Thanks for asking. Take care and I hope all is well you way.
Hey Buddy ! Sorry I'mlate to the party. man what beautiful scenery on the ride to camp. I didn't know NM had forests like that, I thought you were riding i my neck of the woods haha (until I saw the shot with all the mountains and stuff lol)
Camp and supper looked good, just a FYI: you have to watch heating food up in those can's, sometimes they have a wax on the inside of the can to protect it, and it can get in your food when heated. Good call on the leaving early, it's better to be safe than sorry. Plus you can always go back another day. Thanks for taking us along, Cheers my friend !
Hey bud. I loved the scenery in this section of the forest. It does have a look and feel of what you ride in for sure. The crazy thing about New Mexico is the landscape is so diverse that literally every quadrant of the state looks different than other parts. I think over winter when our forest closes up I am going to explore some volcanic areas of the state. I have not shown this yet. Thanks for the heads up on the chile can with wax. I'll remember that for the next time.
I narrowed it down with the ATV. I looked around and inspected it and couldn't find anything. So I spoke to my dealer and asked if he had come across an engine light coming on and off. He said it could be an early warning about your battery. So I pulled out my voltmeter and bingo. Volts were down so I replaced the battery. I think the cold night did it. I was about -5 degrees F in the morning with wind chill which is when the light came on. The good thing is in my gear I always carry a portable battery jump starter so if it happens I could at least start it. Anyways, thanks for watching buddy. Have a good weekend and cheers.
You are so right about being up in high altitude and less oxygen. I think our highest altitude where I can go with my atv is around 1640 feet, so I will never experience altitude sickness. But people should also be aware that cooking temperature is different up there than down by the sea.
You did the right thing to don't risk it with your atv, check engine light can be serious business. But you had a nice camping adventure, and I would just freeze when it's -11c even when I'm used to the freezing cold 😆
That was a brutal wind at that top, I can just imagine how cold your body are after a few minutes there.
Altitude sickness is something to not play around with. In severe cases people can be hospitalized. But you are right about the cooking temperature as well. Plus even your cooking stove is affected by altitude. I am glad I decided to go home. There is no telling what could have happened up there if I stayed. Wind chill is nasty. I was really cold in the wind and I was only up there for about 10 minutes. Once I got down in elevation what a difference that made. At least you know what I am talking about. Take care my friend. Have a good one.
Wow that wind at the top!!! I don’t know how you stand that cold at night. Good call on playing it safe. The aspens are so pretty!
It was wild windy up there lol. I have a zero degree bag and a thermal suit I get into to sleep and keep the cold off. It does well in all the times I have used this combo. I am glad I got off the mountain and home. But I loved the color of the aspens changing. Thanks for watching. Have a nice evening.
Right on. Good call. When you are 63 You will appreciate your gut feelings even more.
Yeah man. I don't regret my decision to call it at all. It would have been a long hike to find someone to help me out. I figure take care of my self first and come back another time. It will always be there. I appreciate you watching bud.
Another Great video, A warm fire and cold beer and some Chili dogs mmmm...wish i was there
Cold Morning -hot coffee sets up the day
Check engine light , up here in Canada when its cold and your ATV is stored in doors like a shed .we find that check engine will light up
when oil gets cold and a bit of condensation , the check light goes away when ATV builds up enough heat.
Keep safe Brother Great VID. Great view nice drone footage.
Man It would be awesome to have you come along for a day of riding, camping, and enjoying the outdoors. I love cold morning coffee. I appreciate the information on the ATV check engine light. Perhaps that is what it was. It was 12 degrees that morning and a 25 mph wind so wind chill had to be somewhere around -5 C. I'll keep that in mind and will have to pay attention to that in the future. Our high mountains are cold and snow pack gets deep up there. Not sure how many more times I will make it up there before they close it. So I will remember this if I do make it up there again before the season shut us down for mountains rides. Thanks for watching bud. Take care.
Beautiful scenery. Love the colors. Could almost feel the cold lol. Glad you called it when you did. Hope nothing to serious was wrong with your ATV
Hey there. I am glad to have made it out with no issues. I have looked over my ATV and can't find anything. I wonder if low battery volts and cold had anything to do with it. Anyways, I am glad you enjoyed the video and fall color. It was a beautiful site to see. Take care and have a nice day!
Beautiful place and well done video! What a great adventure. Reminds me that winter camping is something special.
Winter camping is awesome for sure. As long as you have the right gear and attitude you'll get through it and enjoy doing it. Once the forest service closes, it will be desert cold camping next. Take care bud.
I wish I would have taken more time to camp this year. I’m about a month from starting to ice fish. I need to spend more time in the outdoors
Hey buddy. I hope you can get out and enjoy some ice fishing. Life is awesome in the outdoors. Take care bud.
Good sharing I definitely enjoy following along in this video👍
Glad to see here 🌼 friend
Thank you for watching and leaving me a comment. Have a great day.
Wow man that wind looked brutal for sure!! Good call cutting the trip short. You can't chance a mechanical break down when you're in weather like that. You picked another beautiful camp spot. It would be awesome to camp at the higher elevations like New Mexico has. Awesome video buddy 👍
That wind was brutal lol. I could of help a sheet of plywood and most likely would of went airborne haha. But man to have a mechanical breakdown would have really sucked. I would have been an all day mission trying to get help. But high elevation camping is super enjoyable. It can be cold year round, but so peaceful and awesome. Take care brother.
Here in New Brunswick Canada we get lots of snow but our highest mountain (hill to you) is about 2680 feet, highest in the Maritimes. I'm fascinated and awed by your terrain. It gives me vertigo just to watch some of the trails you drive. Nice videos, look forward to watching more.
Hey there. I love the Canada scenery in the NB area. I watch many channels in your region and enjoy it. It's so different from my area. Our higher elevations here in my state can get a lot of snow above 10000ft. Not so much in the lower elevations. But you are right about the vertigo feeling. I also get it when riding routes near cliff edges. Thanks for watching and I hope to continue hearing from you.
Sure is a beautiful area to camp in. I moved South to avoid the cold but I do remember the feeling of a fire and hot food when it's cold out. Stay safe. Good job on the editing.
Hey there! I hope all is well and you are doing well. I understand you move to the south to avoid the cold weather. As winter moves in more I will be camping in lower elevations in the desert sections of New Mexico. So it will not be near as cold. Thanks for watching and take care.
Beautiful place buddy enjoy yourself and stay safe 👍🏾 going to watch it till the end like always 👍🏾
I greatly appreciated buddy. All is well and I hope everything is going well your way. Take care.
Another great adventure ! You sure live in a unique and incredible area of the country. I'd love to get down there some day.
Thanks buddy. I think we both are fortunate to have some pristine country to ride in and I love the mountain west. Nothing beats riding some trails and enjoying the views. Take care buddy. Thanks for watching.
Always smart to call it even when the possibility of issues is minimal. Best to be safe than sorry! good stuff bud!
I hear you on that buddy. I would not of been a fan of walking more than 15 miles. And then to continue more up the trail the next day would have made it worst if I broke down. Thanks for watching and have a good evening.
That was gorgeous drone footage at the top of that mountain, although the price you paid was freezing and shivering!
Hopefully that engine code was very minor. We can't be having your 570 breaking down and impacting your videos! ;-)
It turns out that the battery cable was coming lose. I was able to fix it when I was at home. But I am glad I was able to enjoy a night up there. This is a beautiful range and unfortunately the area might have been destroyed in a wildfire. I have not had a confirmed report though.
Great video my brother! Thanks for sharing this with us!! Your Awesome!! 👍👍😎
I appreciate it brother. I love putting together videos and sharing the outdoors with you all. Life is good outside and peaceful. It is a home away from home. Take care and I hope all is well.
I hate wind!! Especially at elevation! Lol! Great trip! I used to camp at the base of Crestone Needle in the Sangre de Cristo range of southern Colorado when I was young and brave (dumb and invincible?!). Cold, wind and elevation are no joke, but sure hard to beat the views! Hope the check engine light was a simple fix! 👍
You know exactly what I mean about the wind and elevation lol. It is a beautiful view from the top, but the wind and cold will leave an impression also haha. The Sangre De Cristo mountains are awesome. This mountain chain is huge. I have no idea what the engine light was all about. For it to come on for few minutes and then turn off has me stumped. I have looked over the atv and have road it on a close to home trail and nothing seems wrong. I'll be changing the oil at the dealer this week and I hope they can give me answers. Take care buddy. I appreciate you watching.
So beautiful place for camping. Thanks my friend
Thanks for visiting and watching my video. I am glad you enjoyed it.
That was a cool trip hope the bike is ok . Wish You and maritimer could spend a week together to bad your so far apart lol keep up the great videos 👍
I would love to get with maritimer. I think that would be so awesome to ride and enjoy a good trip out camping. Bike seems to be okay. Not sure why the engine light came on. But I took it serious despite it turning off. Take care.
Wow what a wild outing to bad about your arc but better safe that sorry good call hip hip!!! That’s some crazy wind
Hey Charlie. All seems to be well with the ATV. I have no idea how to explain the hiccup it had. I'll be getting an oil change today and will ask the shop to look it over as well. Take care and thanks for watching.
beautiful area as usual Ruben! You really toughed out that cold. I'll be in Tucson for the winter but it may be too cold for me to ride in the mountains. I'll sure keep watching the awesome vids you put out. Keep them coming.
Tucson is beautiful. Great choice to spend the winter season. It was super cold up there lol. Mainly it was a wind chill issue on top of cold temperatures. Heading up that high in elevation is so different than the valleys. I love it. Take care and have a nice weekend.
that looks like you had a great time thanks for taking us along and i hope you have a great week ahead
I had an awesome time. I can't wait to get back out and do some camping. I appreciate you watching. Have a nice week ahead also. So far all is going well. I hope the same for you too.
Great video as always! Love the views and having you take us along.
Thank buddy. I appreciate you watching and your support.
Great views! Very entertaining! Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching. I appreciate your comments as well.
That wind was extra! Another great ride though.
Yes it was! It was easily 40 plus mph haha. Thanks for watching. I am glad you enjoyed the ride.
I wish I was there with you. Such an awesome country I hope to see one day. Atv camping is something I just haven’t had an opportunity to do yet. Another great video!
Hey there! Company would be awesome! I hope you can get out and give ATV camping a go one day. I find it to be very enjoyable. I love the freedom you have and how mobile you can be having an ATV. Its easier to travel into tight spaces and find some of the most isolated and secluded camp spots. Thanks for watching.
Nice work liked and stay connected plus stay safe 🙏
Thanks and have a nice weekend!
Good video. interesting about the atv engine light. Enjoy your fall.
Thanks brother. After doing a thoroughly inspection on the ATV I narrowed it down to be a battery issue. I spoke to my local dealer and explained what happened and he said right away battery. So I grabbed a new battery and slapped it in. I hope this will do it. Thanks for watching and have a nice weekend and enjoy the season as well.
Fantastic beauty and great video work.
Thank you very much! I appreciate you watching.
Hey ya Ruben, hope all is well, we’ve not heard from ya in a while, ? I’ve been c keepin an eye on La Palma volcanoe, an now huge storm systems up north creating havoc with peoples lives.
Hope the weather down south is a bit better.
All the best Paul Uk 10.55gmt
Hey there buddy. All is well, thanks for asking. I hope all is well and people are pulling through okay. That is terrible when things make matters worse for peoples lives.
All is well in the south. We have been warm and dry. I guess I can’t complain one bit because the outdoors don’t feel bad.
Take care Paul, I hope you have a great holiday weekend! Happy Thanksgiving.
Definitely a good call heading back my friend. Weather was looking pretty rough lol.
I agree bud. Nothing is worst that having a break down, but then having a break down and having to walk more than 15 miles would have super sucked! Thanks for watching. I hope your weekend was awesome!
Great job with this video. I really enjoyed it.
Hey there. Thanks for watching and I am glad you enjoyed it. Have a great day! Take care.
Great views of that area for sure.... should of brought your kite.... would of been a good time. Sad you didn't have a good time, but from your voice, it still sounds like you had a great time up there and being out.
Lol, a kite would have been awesome. I had a wide open meadow near camp to fly it in with no risk of trees. All in all it was a great time out despite my ATV acting up. I can't wait to get back up there and run some other trails. Take care buddy. Have a good afternoon.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures you to man, did you ever find out what your ATV was doing and what the code it threw was??
Nothing is turning up for the ATV. I wonder if it was a cold wind chill hiccup that was making the ATV not happy. Plus now I am getting a low voltage reading in my ATV, so maybe a new battery will do it.
Love your vids brother, thanks for taking us along
Glad you like them! I appreciate you watching and all your support. Have a great day bud.
Nice im jealous not been able to ride lol best you came back when by your self like you said long walk out .
Now you have a excuse return lol . Ever thought about build a lean to put your tent in would break wind and keep fair amount cold out .
Sure heck was windy crazy for sure xtra cloths great to have . At least im getting watch all you guys get out helps some what 🤔 well kinda lol maybe week i can be out & so looking forward to great video bud 👍
Dude that walk out would have been a long walk and it would have sucked lol. I am glad you are able to enjoy the videos through us. I hope you get out soon for some riding. I love your scenery!
I actually thought about a tarp to protect from high windy weather. While the tree line protected me, it was still felt for sure. If I would have known the summit was going to be that windy, I would have put on my extra clothes I had lol. It was so windy on the summit and very cold. Easily -5 C wind chill. Once I got off what a difference it was. I look forward to getting up there again and exploring.
Take care buddy!
Looks like fun buddy hope the bike is ok , you and maritimer need to get together for a week but sucks your so far apart lol anyway keep up the great videos 👍
Man I would love to do a collaborative video with maritimer. It would be super epic to ride with him and to cook up a sweet dinner. We are far apart, but perhaps at one point we can make that happen in the future. I would be open for the idea with him. Take care bud. I appreciate you watching and support.
I didn't find anything wrong with the bike yet. Someone suggested maybe cold weather and condensation may have triggered it.
Looked like a fun trip. Enjoyed the video
Thanks for watching buddy. Have a great day and weekend.
This is really good. I live in Florida and am planning on getting into ATV camping.
Go for it! You'll enjoy getting out there. Thanks for watching. Have a nice weekend.
Your eating like a King... lol Great video.
There is something about cooking food on a campfire. It just taste better. Thanks for watching.
Hi Ruben, Paul from U k just got my mornin fix for trails an great advice. Herd some time ago that the trail systems can go from Canada to New Mexico, if true you must be lookin at 10k miles plus of trails.
Need to win the lottory an get a 6x6 plus trailer an spend sometime moochin around,
Just increadablel work on the vids I’ve let some Diabled friends know because it’s so great to wake up an watch the show instead of boris Johnson belching his bs on the news .
Great work look forward to next trip with ya
Be safe be well be lucky. Happy trails.
I don't know how I overlooked this comment. That would be an adventure of a life time to travel from Mexico to Canada. Yes a lottery winning would need to happen to buy all the gear I would need to show how beautiful the world is. I am glad you guys are enjoying my videos. It makes me happy when I hear how my videos impact the lives of people who are disabled or going through a hard time. Blessings my friend. Have a great day!
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures you inspire people my freind!
An not a lot better than that
Enjoy the holidays an we’ll see you on the other side cheers paul
Beautiful scenery! Glad you mad it out and can check out your Atv when you get home, it would suck to get stuck way out there. I went out for a 117 mile ride in Southern NM yesterday and my biggest worry is getting stuck out in the middle of nowhere by myself with no cell signal. You made the right call. Best part of the video was you laughing up at the peak at the extreme conditions. Another great video
I hear you my friend. I have taken a look at the ATV and nothing appears to be wrong with it. I am going to run it to my local dealer for an oil change and I will have them look over it some more. Its strange that it came on then back off within a few minutes.
I am glad you know how NM is with cell signal. Some of these places aren't visited for a day or 2 so getting stuck is a major problem in these remote areas. I need to head south to ride and explore. There is so much of the state I need to travel to. We are lucky to have a large riding area and awesome terrain. Man that summit was wild lol. I was laughing at how hard the wind was. It must have been 40ish MPH haha. Good times. Take care buddy.
Your CL came in due to freezing conditions overnight, I have a 2017 and when temps are freezing or excessive heat out , your ECU freezes or overheat. Nothing to worry about.
Awesome information and I appreciate you letting me know. Thanks for your comment. I hope you’re enjoying the weekend. Take care.
Really beautiful view from the top! Hopefully everything was OK with the ATV. That's the thing with CELs, they can be basically anything, from no concern at all to very serious. My Cherokee's CEL will turn on during wildfire season because the smoke in the air presumably triggers some warning about lean intake.
The fall scenery was just amazing. I bet that tent was cold despite the fire, and I know how the wind can take any comfort out of the air around you.
So far nothing appears to be wrong with the ATV. I have no idea why the light would come on and turn off a few minutes later. I inspected it and I can't find nothing. But I am glad I didn't risk it any more and went home. That is so odd about the light coming on with smoke. I have never heard of that before.
The views and scenery were amazing. It is wild how climbing up 400ft in elevation puts you into some brutal wind like I was in. I stayed there for only 10 mins or so before I could take the gust anymore.
Thanks for watching. Take care buddy.
You made the best choice to call it buddy I would have did the same thing
Yeah man, I was a bit bummed the ATV check engine light came on. The strange thing is it hasn't come on since and I have done a walk around. I have no idea why it would come on for a few and turn off. Who knows if high elevation and cold had anything to do with that. Take care my friend.
I see how you are, flashing those pretty colors all up in my face, lol. I'm with ya buddy, I enjoy the extreme green in spring, and the color change in the fall. It was kind of a meh changeover here this year, I'm not sure why, but you have that sometimes.
You ever start a fire with the rubbing two sticks together method? I have a friend who does. I'm not that patient, haha.
There's alot to think about with alpine camping. I'm pretty out of my element with this stuff. I didn't know campfire works differently either. I've snowmobiled out in grand Mesa, CO and felt how that affects me. Never thought about the fire. It's been a long time since I've been out that way. No idea how that would affect me now. I really should work on losing some weight...
...and then you flash chili cheese dogs in my face. WTF, lol. That's so troll.
Windchill is such a kick in the balls. 0 degrees isn't terrible. 0 and windchill sucks. I'm a pussy.
You're making a good decision bud. The cold does weird shit to us and machines. The check engine light could have been due to low voltage from the cold start maybe. People come up here snowmobiling, not thinking about temperature, and they'll end up broke down somewhere in the middle of nowhere and freeze to death. I have a sled, maybe I'll make sled videos again this year, idk. The sad part is, it's not a good idea to do that stuff alone if I'm honest, but really I typically ride alone, so it feels like a "do as I say, not as I do" thing. But I'm also local and know where everything is.
That wind is no joke, ROFL! That was funny.
Hey Ruben, I'm always glad to join you on your adventures bud. You take care buddy!
What's up buddy!?! We also have years that the leaves don't change as good. I think it all has to do with the climate change that is going on. I can remember in my younger days that the leaves were fairly consistent.
I hear you on the weight, I am beginning the process of trying to change my weight also. It does have a small impact when you are higher up in elevation with breathing and moving around. I am wondering if the cold wind had something to do with the ATV. The hiccup hasn't repeated it's self at all, however, I am now seeing a low amp light come on so a battery is due for sure. Perhaps this was the case.
Sledding would be awesome. To get into good snow I have to get into the mountains at least above 8500ft to get into consistent snow play. But the problem here is our forest close access to the forest so it would all be a fairly long foot walk lol. I hear you on going solo. I don't see that changing anytime soon either. Although it would be nice to have a riding buddy.
Man them chilidogs were freaken awesome haha. I'll have to make this again in the future. Easy, quick, and delicious. Take care buddy. Talk soon!
That is sweet riding out there. I know I would love that place to ride. Hopefully some day I will go out that way to ride and ATV camp. Cool content 4 sure. Thanks inspired to go ride those mountains well worth it. Five 🌟's on my book...
It's not to far from you home either brother. I think it would be a 1 drive maybe a little more. It takes me about 2.5 hrs to get here. You will love the views and drive around this area. Its a nice area for sure. I need to make my way up north and explore. Now that winter is coming I might have to wait since the forest gets closed. Take care bro.
You look like a great guy to atv camp with. Get a Garmin InReach good investment just in case. From Canada thanks for video. Keep kidneys warm makes all the difference in the chill. Cheers
I have been thinking about getting the Garmin Inreach. It’s a great investment. My friend took it with us on a backpacking trip one time and was able to reach out when we had no service. Thanks for watching and I hope to have you a part of the channel. Have a good weekend. Cheers.
Just tuned in to the channel , the elevations youre dealing with are amazing. I live on the west coast of British Columbia Canada . that high here would be nothing but rocks & ice. What tent are u using on these trips.?Cheers , and keep er on 4 wheels.
I would love to see the far northern Rockies. I am at the far southern tip of the Rockies here in New Mexico. I am using a Marmot Catalyst tent on my trips. It’s a sturdy build for wind and does well when it snows and rains. Thanks for watching bud.
Great job Ruben, have you thought about hand warmers for your ATV , they work great.
I have heard about hand warmers for your ATV. Do you use it? So far, I ride with a -30 degree pair of water proof gloves and do well. But hand grips that warm would be nice also.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures ya I bought some after market 12 volt hand grips and a thumb warmer, work great, keep up the great work.
I’ll have to consider getting some hand warmers. Thanks and have a great day.
realy enjoyed this video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching man.
Need a bit of information from you if you can help sir. In one of you're videos I noticed a hitch cargo rack you had attached to youre unit. It looked great. How much weight did you put on it and did it at all affect youre steering for youre trail runs.
Hey there. My honest opinion about the cargo rack is I personally didn't like it. I loved having extra space to add things. However, the rack would drag in places that the trail would throw obstacles in you way. The other thing is is added to much rear weight causing the front to not steer as great. For what it was, I made it pretty far in on rocky and bumpy terrain. Thanks for watching bud.
Amazing👍👍
Thanks for the visit. Have a good one.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures 😊
Hi Ruben! I am considering a long desert ride. Wondering if you would share what tent and sleep system you use? Thanks
Hey buddy. That is super awesome. I use a Marmot Catalyst 2 person tent along with my Nemo sleeping bag and thermarest sleep pad. Enjoy your trip and be safe.
Great video Rueben keep em coming. What gas pack are you using
Thanks man. I am using the Jonas 1.3 Gallon gas pack from Amazon. Literally the plastic swelled a few days ago and cracked on me. I was using the gas can for about 3 years prior to this happening. I ordered a new gas pack today. I went with a 2 gallon rotopax. Thanks for watching.
Hey allo Ruban, we’ve missed ya in UK!
Looks cold an nasty night?
Ok, would you have a 6x6 an what one for the kind of trailing you do?
Paul 16.45 gmt Uk appy Xmas an New Year22 everyone. Feliz Navidad an appy hollidays
Hey Paul. It was a cold windy night for sure. It makes me appreciate everything we have at home. I am sure you can take a 6x6 up here. But where I live they are not popular so they can be hard to find if you wanted one. ATV and SXS are the popular offroad machines. I hope you have a great Xmas and a great New Year! Take care and enjoy!
What temperature sleeping bag did you use
I had a zero degree bag and a thermal base layer that I slept in. It was a comfortable set up. I didn't sleep cold, but the wind kept banging the tent which kept me waking up often.
Can you tell me where the trail head for this is?
The trail head for this location is near the town of Tererro, NM. If you look up Elk Mountain in New Mexico you will find lots of good information. The unfortunate thing is last year a massive forest fire started near this area so I am not sure if the area is burned down or what damage was received.
Hi , I’ve watched all your videos about 2or3 times wondering if and how I could get one of your stickers, thank you.
Hey there. I would be happy to send you a sticker free of charge. My email is monzanoman at gmail. We can exchange personal info there. I really appreciate your support. Take care and have a great day!
What was wrong with your Atv ?
I narrowed it down. I talked to my dealer and asked him if he has heard of a check engine light coming on and then going away. He said it could be a battery voltage. So I tested my battery voltage and it was a little low, but enough to still start. So I’ve slapped in a new battery and I should be good to go now.
No shame in bailing on camp i had that happen about a month ago I went to camp on my atv got camp set up but it was so hot and the mosquitoes were so bad I bailed
Man I hate pesky mosquitoes. I would have bailed out as well. You can't even enjoy yourself being bite by them. I have no idea how they people on naked and afraid can deal with that day and night. I would go crazy lol. Take care buddy. I appreciate you watching.

We didn't feel the quake at all. I hope all people who were affected are doing okay and well. Take care and have a nice Christmas and New Year. Take care.
My check engine light would’ve came on my body to. If my blood was just sitting all night in the cold 🥶
I am wondering if the cold weather might have had a part in what was happening. I can't get the light to come back on and I have checked over the atv also. Not sure happened.
@@ManzanoMan_Adventures Ruben it might’ve just been that your oil needed to warm up a bit. I’m no mechanic but that’s what I’m thinking happened.
You’re probably right on this one.
