    We camped near Bishops Castle every summer with our kids when they were young and it was terrifying letting them walk up there! Kinda fun to see Jim Bishop ranting and raving against the government when we were there. Very loud and vocal :) Glad you showcased one of the very unique free Colorado outings.

    Same thing I went to back in the 50's in Ruidoso, New Mexico called the mystery spot. Balls rolled upholl, chairs stayed on the wall. Walked down but really uphill. Stuff like that. It was cool.

    This was one of my favorite video of yours! We have a road in Indiana called Gravity Hill. If you put your car in neutral, it'll actually climb uphill. One of those optical illusion + gravity things. Really cool, though.

    I've driven by the catsup tower a million times Ryan I can't believe you were in Collinsville I guess you can be anywhere at any time! Stop at Fitz's Root Beer on your next trip through St Louis and visit downtown, maybe try to camp lol. And keep your eye out for Ski The Lemon-Orange Soda. It should be available from St Louis to Chattanooga

    Hey Ryan that "water tower" you pointed out behind the toxic waste mound in Weldon Spring was actually NOT a water tower but, in fact a Doppler Radar. The dome on top protects the satellite dish inside that scans the weather. I live here and its not often when I see UA-camrs actually visiting the toxic radioactive mound. The National Weather Service office for St. Louis is right down the road from that site. Great video.

    If you're ever close you should stop by Lone Pine, ca. Beautiful camping in desert in the Alabama hills at base of Mt whitney and visit the film museum. You won't be disappointed. Beautiful sunset and the museum is all props and stuff they used in movies gilded there like star trek, tremors, western and all

    Great views and times Ryan! Really wondering if you could do a… maybe tutorial, on how your setup has evolved or changed through the years. Also maybe going into more detail of how you have everything set up. Like the hotspot and such. Really looking into this life, but dont want to go completely off grid. Internet and games would be cool. Was always turned off by how hard it seemingly is to set up some good internet/wifi on the road.
