Cool spot the sierra’s are badass. Damn I just realized since your last video I was getting jacked up to start the build on my truck since then I’ve built it and had it out on 3 trips so far headed out this weekend. Love the channel you should start a merch store you have a cool logo I’d buy some shirts/sweatshirts. Also since I started watching I find myself playing where’s Waldo looking to see what gun you have hiding around lol.
Yeah its an awesome area! You should upload a video of the build, I'd like to see what you have done to it. I'm looking into how I can start selling merch, will definitely let everyone know when I start doing that. And that's hilarious! I try to be somewhat inconspicuous with the guns because "UA-cam" lol
Pro tip bro, your gonna want to always add a barrel swivel when fishing all inline spinner style lures! This prevents line twists and knots and you will get 100% advertised action out of your lures! Alot more flashing and movement, more bites! Been following your channel for a while now, you still own my dream exploration vehicle/setup! Awesome! Thx for the new vid!
Dude that’s hugely helpful! Thanks! I actually had to cut out 30’ of line at one point because it knotted up. I’m a largemouth guy lol so I don’t use swivels on anything, but now I know. And thanks for following along, I really appreciate it!
With truck and camper in this configuration. Do you use the truck for anything else? Or is it strictly overlanding / hunting / fishing? I am trying to figure out my 3rd gen.
Definitely makes things more challenging, but I use this truck for literally everything, I tow trailers for work constantly, I commute with it, etc… the only thing it really changed for me was that I use a trailer for most things now, but that doesn’t bother me too much.
I was up there day before yesterday hardly anyone there, roads were really rough getting in but I was towing a modified off-road teardrop trailer found a couple awesome camp spots came in on Bowman Road to the lake and did the entire loop came out on 89 it was beautiful up there, I can’t believe you saw a minivan up there that’s crazy!! thanks for the awesome video👍👍👍👍
@@FieldWorxoverlandadventures thanks for watching! It is beautiful up there. So so busy when I was there, don’t like that part at all, but I’m glad you got to go when it was less crowded!
next time you cook those Farmer John sausages, add a little bit of water in the pan and thank me later! Cooks them perfectly! Damn, now I'm hungry haha! Great vid once again!
I was there with my young son around that time, ive never seen it so busy. Barley got a spot took the last one at the end of the road at sawmill. Asians singing drunk karaoke all night on a speaker. Was the weekend of July 21st which was my birthday. I overland my ram to love it. Were you walked up the hill to the top of the hill thats were we stayed. If you're looking at the fire pit towards the lake there is a Rocky hill that goes down to a little cove of the lake my son and I went down there and got tore up by hornets that came out of the side of the hill by the hundreds. All of a sudden i heard a buzzing noise and my son was basically cussing because he had been stung. Once i realized what was happening and sall the hornets coming out of the hill. I yelled at him to run and i was pushing his butt up the hill while they were tagging me in the back. They got him right under the eye and in the leg. I was extremely worried because he had never been stung before and swole up pretty good. As you know that spot is at least an hour away from the freeway and i was worried he could go into anaphylactic shock. One of our scariest moments in the hills. He swole up a bit but i kept a very close eye on him.
Nice video. Ever want another to join your camp let me know I’m always looking for a chance to get out. I’m about an hour from that area. I’ve got a 07 G56 truck. But prefer my Jeep for trails.
Nice work! Love to see Cummins video. Do you disconnect the front swaybar? Im usually disconnect for my jeep. It will be very nice ride if you have a lot of rocks and potholes on the trails.
I haven't tried that. It's a little more involved on one of these bigger trucks than it is on a jeep. would be nice to see how it reacts though. Might have to give it a shot sometime. Thanks for watching!
great video, beautiful area of the country. Closed for 4 years, is that common? I love how the forest service will close a popular area, then complain about overuse on the other areas after closing a popular area......
I know, super frustrating. The info about it being closed for 4 years was the information that the gate "guard/attendant" gave me. There's a possibility that he doesn't know all the info, but the dam rebuild project is going to take 4 years and he said it will be closed for the duration.
I actually have one and use it all the time. Just didn’t pull it out for air down on the last two trips. I always use it to air back up though. Great system!
I didn't see anything about catch and release only in the regulations. But here is a website that shows all of the lakes in the area, so if you click on whatever lake you're planning to fish, you should see the regulations for that lake. apps.wildlife.ca.gov/sportfishingregs/
How did OnX not know about a government closure on their maps? Happened to us during filming our Divergent Pathways series and we actually had an OnX employee with us lol
That's a great question! I'm planning to go back to their website and see if I can report it somehow. But it was a bit irritating to get all the way out there to find out the area is closed lol.
I appreciate where you’re coming from. But this place is already very popular and not because of my video. If I find lakes/places that aren’t well known then I use much more discretion in sharing locations.

Awesome vid, great seeing full size rigs making a huge comeback.
Thanks!

Thanks man! Good to know, I’ll definitely give that a shot.
Great Video. Looked like a nice trip.
can't wait to see some more BDR trail videos as well.
Thanks! Going to try and get the last couple out soon.
A big like from Romania! Beatiful landscapes! Nice truck! 💪💪💪
Thank you very much!
You living the life brother
Thanks man, I’m very blessed indeed.
Love the 3rd gen content.
That's one chill snake in the water.
Yeah, totally harmless we shared the shore for a bit after he came in lol
Love it -- looking forward to seeing you on the bike again.
I think I saw you on the trail! I was in a green ram 1500. Clean build!
Thanks! Can’t recall the ram, but very likely. I’m a little zoned out when I’m focusing on filming lol.

Love the content on the Full size trucks new subscriber 👋
Two hearted eh gonna try to find it 😉🍻
Thank you! Great beer for sure.
Do you have a list posted of the equipment used in your build, fridge, power system and so on?
Here’s a link to my walk around that details all of that stuff. ua-cam.com/video/kxEEbRh50x0/v-deo.htmlsi=SgE3k3YDm9FxRQCk
I was up there from June 30th to July1st, sawmill was beautiful!
Probably had a few less people up there than I did lol, but yes it is. Absolutely stunning!
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad less people but it felt like there was a million mosquitoes 🤣
Challenge... catch a mountain trout and an ocean fish on the same day and find an awesome place to camp. 😮
SBF
This is actually a great idea! I’ll start planning!
Nice video. Ever want another to join your camp let me know I’m always looking for a chance to get out. I’m about an hour from that area. I’ve got a 07 G56 truck. But prefer my Jeep for trails.
I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for watching!

You meant to stay so you can text your wife and me 😂
Sad you didn’t get to reel anything in, but there is always next time. Beautiful area out there
Yeah, sorry, I forgot the honorable mention on that one lol.
Was that Rattlesnake Road to Fordyce lake road closure? I’m surprised you didn’t see that on Onx off-road app.
It’s not on on-x, (or wasn’t at the time) which is why I didn’t see it.
Where you going to Lola Montez at the beginning of this?
No, might hit that one in a future trip though
I towed my SxS on this road... it was a sketchy ride lol
What happened to the mini van? 🙄
Keeps you interested so you come back for more. 😉
gotta get the morrflate for your airdown at least, so you can do 2-4 at a time
I actually have one and use it all the time. Just didn’t pull it out for air down on the last two trips. I always use it to air back up though. Great system!
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad just saw you pull it out on your trinity video just now haha... love mine
Is this lake catch and release?
I didn't see anything about catch and release only in the regulations. But here is a website that shows all of the lakes in the area, so if you click on whatever lake you're planning to fish, you should see the regulations for that lake. apps.wildlife.ca.gov/sportfishingregs/
What do you air down to with a rig that weight? 45-50?
That’s what I run daily. Air down is 20 off road.
I guess that is why they call it fishing ... instead of catching. 🙂
SBF
Amen brother. I’m EXCELLENT at the fishing. The other part 🤷♂️
Hey, you said in a video like two years back that you were going to show us the new drive shaft you went to.
SBF
@@ProtectYourRight2A dang it. You got me. I forgot to tell you guys. I’ll get right on that sir.
@@EpicAdventuresOffroad 😆
i did mushrooms in that exact campsite in 2007 hahahah
😂 surprised you can remember it. 17 years if I’m mathing correctly.
last time i went there i saw a stuck tesla model3 lol
Crazy people.. lol be a dang shame if their battery died

Spot is over run because of videos like this.
