Peaceful Lakeside Camping - Solo Adventure | Conquest Overland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- Solo trips can often times be a chance to reflect, plan, and simply relax from the day-to-day endeavors. For this adventure I’m embracing the colder weather here in the Pacific Northwest by revisiting a unique lakeside camping spot. To extend the experience even further I’ve packed the Oru Kayak for gaining a new and fresh perspective while being out on the water. Join along as I take in the stunning mountain landscape views of clear blue skies, heavy fog, fallen snow, and even downpour rain.

Your content deserves few hundred thousand subscribers at least.
I'm working towards it... 😉 With the help of those that subscribe and share videos they like, it’s getting us in that direction. I appreciate the kind words and support! 🙌
He’s getting there!
Dude! The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is one of my favorite movies.
It's such a great one! I usually have a handful of movies downloaded and ready to go for these trips haha.
This right here is like food to my soul!
I love your solo camping trips safe travels.
Thank you! These trips are a nice way to hit the reset button and be on your own schedule. Plus I get the tent all to myself at night and can spread out 😆 😉
Nice to see you revisiting that spot in the new rig and getting the kayak out in colder temps was cool to see.
Thank you! Was nice to revisit some prior stomping grounds and try out the trails like once before. This kayak is quickly becoming my favorite add-on for trips 😉 👍
Great winter camp experience! Love the solitude 😊
It's the best! We gotta get back out and do some more of these trips! 😉
To expand my camping experience. I bring my High banker Gold sluice box prospect for Gold in creeks.
Challenge myself with fire making each time with different ways vs using matches.
Metal detecting historical sites I visit.
That's awesome! I love hearing that, what a great way to keep the adventure going while refining a valued skill. Cheers to getting out there! 🙌
Glad to see you returning to that spot. Your last video there was my favorite winter camping video. Can’t wait to experience the PNW next year when I retire. Safe travels and greetings from Florida.
Thank you so much! This area is such a great place to visit, even better once temps drops as you find having the area to yourself. Hope all is going well and thank you for the continued support, cheers to future retirement 😉 👍
Visuals are just outstanding
Thank you very much, absolutely love this "moody" weather here in the Pacific Northwest!
@@ConquestOverland sammmmmeeeee
I enjoyed this peaceful and relaxing video! Thank you!!
Thank you for tuning in, much appreciated!
Michael, that’s an awesome location. The views are amazing and refreshing from the daily hustle and bustle of city life. One question from a future over lander, what is your security blanket? Let’s say something happens to brake on your rig beyond repair. How would you get help or even rescued? Do you go only places where you have phone signal or is there a handheld device you take with you?
The PNW is simply incredible this time of year, the winter season brings a whole new feeling for getting outdoors! As for getting out on these trips, I always bring a Garmin inReach with me not only for communication with family and friends but in case things go sideways. In addition I ensure to have a bug out bag in case things completely go sideways and I need to walk out for help. Ideally it's best to go in groups though for solo trips I usually don't go too far out in the backcountry... 😉 👍
All that to say, the Starlink system could add a new element for keeping in touch with the world while on your trips!
Awesome! Cheers!
Thank you for the support! 🙌
Wow, that's so cool
Thank you! This was certainly a fun adventure getting some cold weather camping in, absolutely love this area! 🙌
@@ConquestOverland what country sir?
Awesome video. Love that area for late fall/early winter camping.
Thank you! This area is absolutely perfect for those seasons. Even makes for some fun snow adventures making it up the road when covered 😉 👍
It's nice camping spot!!
Thanks for sharing video ^_^
Appreciate the support and watching, thank you!
Great video like always!
Thank you so much! Thank you for the continued support!
Hey brother!!
Always can count on you being the first comment! 🙌
Hope all is well!
@ConquestOverland all is well buddy, hope for you too! Got the OVRLND camper out of Flagstaff ordered!! 👍
Just came across your videos and enjoy them! Looks like you’re in WA also. Would love to get out there sometime with you but I only have a stock 2014 JGC.
Thank you! I am, Washington is home base for all our adventures so far 😉
You'll be amazed what a stock vehicle can do on most of the trails around here, we'll have to plan for a trip one of these days.
@@ConquestOverland that would be amazing. I followed you on instagram. Let’s set something up
Nice videos! Which rock sliders do you have on your GC? I have the exact same car and wanting to put a set on, any info would help😊
Thank you so much! The rock sliders are from Rocky Road Outfitters, they are great! Very durable and use a simple bolt on for mounting. You can learn more from one of their dealers who sell their products here: trademarkadventures.com/products/rocky-road-jeep-grand-cherokee-rock-slider-and-step-kit-2021?variant=45586203967791
I'm so glad you asked that question, and that I reviewed comments before posting, as I was intending to ask the very same thing of @ConquestOverland as I, too, have a 2022 GC Trailhawk (non-4xe in Velvet Red). Small world!
Does the jeep have crawl control like the yots? Great content..
Doesn't have crawl control but does have a 4-lo transfer case, sway bar discount, and it's "auto settings" of choosing snow, mud, rock, etc. depending on conditions. For me and the relatively moderate terrain I do, it's been perfect so far!
Thanks for the support and watching!
Such nice visuals, what camera are you using?
Thank you so much! Currently using the LUMIX S5 II 👍
Wow I’m actually looking to get rid of my fx30 for the S5ii that’s awesome thank you
@@Winter_Soundz it’s an incredible camera! I’ve only used the Panasonic line, previously had the G85. The user interface and video capabilities are awesome while still being competitively priced 😉🤘
@@ConquestOverland totally agree I’ve also had a gh5 but Sony might be a bit overhyped
Question?? I never hear you say anything about bears where you go? What kind of wild life do you experience? It is soo beautiful! I live in San Diego. Definitely not like up there!!👍🏽
Good question! To be honest I've never had an issue or encountered them, even during our 2 week trip in Alaska. The biggest thing is ensuring to take preventative measures when heading out and educating yourself on general safety and precautions. I certainly could add more commentary on this topic in future videos though!
As far as wildlife, I've seen a lot, including grizzly bears though just at a far far distance 😉 👍
Thanks for watching and the continued support!
Been watching your videos for a wile now. Great job. Some places i recognize from my own visits there. but some places like this one i dont know. My question is how come you dont announce the names of the places and lakes you visit, so people that dont know can check it out, like me for example i dont know where this place is but would like to give a visit. Just a simple name of the lakes you visit is easy to find on Google maps.
Thanks.
Thank you for your continued support, truly means a lot!
While I recognize it can be hard or frustrating not knowing where these places are, I do it with purpose. Unfortunately there are those who decide to treat our public lands as their personal garbage can with complete disrespect not only to those around them but the area itself. By sharing these exact spots publicly it can lead to increased traffic at volumes the lands simply cannot handle and especially by those who lack the understand of Leave No Trace/ Tread Lightly. While not everyone is like that, being the videos are for all to view, sharing specific information like that is far too difficult to manage.
Lastly, we have to remember why we get out! Embracing the adventure doesn't begin when you jump in the car, it begins right at home when researching where to explore next. I spend countless hours researching areas on Gaia GPS and Google Earth finding new camping or outdoor recreation opportunities. I truly enjoy finding these places firsthand without being given the exact answers because once you come across that spot, you'll have a completely new appreciation for it due to the work you put in. Think of it like a workout program, there's no real shortcuts for getting the true longterm result you want.
Hope that helps and thank you again for your support and watching!
Cheers
I’ve been looking for a good water jerry for a while. Looks like yours is a solid one. What brand is it? Thank you!
Just the Front Runner water jerry, though I did upgrade to the brass tap. So far it's been working well though the Dometic line up has been intriguing too!
great video as always, one request, could you please link the previous video you made here and showed some clips from. I could not find it in the videos. cheers.
Thank you and will do! See link for that video below:

@@ConquestOverland you are the best, brother.
@@cuteatif19 happy to help! 🙌
Is that Baker in the background of the opening shot or Rainer?
Mt. Rainier 😉🤘
Do you carry the blicky with you when you go solo camping? or do you recommend it?
Everyone has their opinion and stance on that one though for me personally I ensure safety in more ways than one for all trips, solo or in a group 😉 👍
What area is this? It's amazing
Just outside of Rainier National Park on the NW side 😉
awesome bro..
Could you please let me know ending song name?
Thank you! Song is "Until You" by Leucadia
hey nice rock sliders i just put mine on a few weeks ago! how are you liking them? so quesiton when are you getting bigger tires, i have the same jeep and im running 33 open countries A/T its nice cause it has 10ply vs the stock , i poped mine on the first off road trip so i switched..
Heck yeah that’s awesome!! So far I’m loving them! Beautiful design, strong, and helps us shorter people with a nice step option… 😆
As far as tires I’m not sure. These have worked great without any issues (only air down to about 20psi) though I’d agree, not enough sidewall… what’s the actual tire specs that you’re running? Also not sure if a larger size would fit in the spare tire cavity in the back? I personally don’t really want a swing out hitch or anything.
LT265/70R18
i put a back up battery and my air compressor and a 1 gallon air tank and a ecoflow 1000 and all my tools and extra jack and stuff and i upgraded the main battery, i got a swing out cause personally when i go camping and my fridge and everything is ontop i cant get the tire out so i got a swing out wiht a table its so much better having that front runner table for me anyways, but american lab is making a metal platform and eventually with struts so u can open it and it will stay open to access ur stuff and will have holes so u can screw stuff in its sick
Do you like ikamper tent or kakadu tent?
Haha, love em both for different reasons though as of late the Kakadu tent is far suiting my needs better with a faster setup/ tear down and utility based of mounting accessories on the roof and sides.
Used to work at iKamper as a 9-5 M-F but since transitioned away for better opportunities 😉🤘
Hey dude, what type of sleeping bag do you use for the colder temps?
Disregard. Should have finished b4 asking. U ended up answering the question. Thx anyway.
Haha no worries! For the bag I’m just using a 2 person 20 degree REI branded bag but the real winner is the heated blanket with it. I find mummy bags too confining for me cause I like to move around when I sleep… haha
Thanks for watching! 🙌
Anytime bro. I make up to many excuses as to why i cant go camping. I too, am trying to develop my channel and share my experiences in Arizona. I really like the idea of 1 day trips. Thats enough to at least get started and get content churning.
Where is this spot?
Just outside Mt. Rainier NP on the north side.
