    When I was a student there, we called the irrigation ditches Freshman Ditches. Each fall a new student would always seem to fall into one after a few too many pops!!

    You two make the best vanlife videos! You always give just enough detail about the places you. Our 20 year old daughter is saving for her first van and thinks you are the cutest couple. She has all your videos. Keep them coming.

    'Gunny' valley has sweeping vistas. Third coldest town in USA. You shiver at night in the summer. Still has that old Colorado mountain town feel. Gunnison RTA bus rides are free up to Crested Butte, 26 miles away.

      I hope you do get to visit some of these places, Joe. In the meantime, let us know where you’d really like to go to and maybe we can do a video on it. We’re always on the road. You can visit vicariously through us! Thanks for watching.

    Hi, my wife and I just recently came across your channel. It is excellent. You should have 100x the subscribers. The info, the back & forth between the two of you for commentary, the video quality and the music, all fantastic. We are about 2 hours north of Port Townsend in BC. Plus, organic free range water for Charlie ( I hope I remembered his name correctly) good one, I never heard of that type of water before, LOL. Safe travels!

    I want a van like yours. My husband and I are about the same age as you all. WE have an off road teardrop trailer but the bathroom situation is a problem for me at least. There is no bathroom on board. How do you like your Cubby?

    • @CubbyVanLife
      @CubbyVanLife  Рік тому +1

      We understand. We traveled in our T@B teardrop for 13 years with no toilet. We now use the HomeDepot Bucket toilet with a seat and disposable bags and love it. Why didn’t we do that before? We love our Cubby Van! It wouldn’t work for everyone but it’s almost perfect for us. Watch our van tour video on our channel if you haven’t already

    I've heard that 149 between Creede and Gunnison can be pretty treacherous. What was your experience?

    • @CubbyVanLife
      @CubbyVanLife  9 місяців тому

      I remember it being pretty steep going up to the ski lifts but not treacherous. It’s not anything like going to Silverton from either direction.
