V4E9: Brakes Grinding to Terrace
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- This week starts in Ketchikan, Alaska, where I explore and tend to business while waiting for my ferry to the Canadian mainland. I find solace on a mountain above Prince Rupert, take in the sights and sounds of Cow Bay, and then limp a troubled Jeep to Terrace, British Columbia.
I'm glad your new videos don't have bad language... God bless you Christopher !!!
One of the highlights of my week is sitting down with a drink and watching your videos. Thank you.
Bob K. Same here 🍻
Thomas R Sunday Same here :).
What kind of drink?
Great vid Chris! I can't wait for each one. Another Jeep overland, Coyote Works, suffered the total loss of his Jeep Rubicon and almost all of his gear to fire. Maybe a fuel line, but it literally burst into flames. Tragic loss, but he's OK. Please make sure you have a separate insurance policy on all of your gear an addition to your vehicle! You should check out his channel. You two are similar but different and both great people
Skivvy 9 I was saddened to hear about Coyote Works Jeep loss. Glad he was ok though. Good point about additional insurance.
I saw that. What a tragic loss. I called my insurance co imdeiatly afterwards!
I watch his channel too. A heartbreaking experience.
Loving the adventure vicariously. ... the shower.. "just don't care anymore". That is an awesome place to reach in the mind.
Idaho Spuds can't live without them.
I really glad the jeep.was.in good shape and not to painful. I truly enjoy and look forward to just watching and thinking I'm 55 and work 14hrs a day and would love to get just w week to go out and just relax like this. thank u for sharing and letting someone like me get to see
Chris glad your Jeep repairs weren’t to extensive and that you found a good repair shop...
So many Jeep owners complain bitterly about Jeep quality but I think it’s all in the way you treat your equipment.
I really look forward to your video each week Chris. They come out here in Australia on a Saturday morning, so it's great to chill out for half an hour, and see where you've been the past week.
Home made mashed potatoes? Lol you always have a way to make me smile.
"as soon as I eat it BAM... instant regret" totally relate!
It’s Saturday morning Sept 8th at 5:30am in CT and I’ve just brewed a fresh pot of coffee to settle in and enjoy another great video. Thank you Chris for another fantastic video.
This makes a 24hr shift bearable. Thank you!
Chris, I always have several packs of those instant potatoes in my travel pantry. So quick, so filling. Add a big pat of butter and it's even better! You can buy them at just about any grocery store on the left coast, probably any state for that matter.
Holy cow! look at those potatoes cougulate
Rewatching all the the videos in 2024!
Following along on goggle maps is fantastic, make a lot easier to follow your path and if you use street view I can see your jeep! Sure glad my countrymen in Terrace did a good job on your jeep.
LOVE those potatoes!! Glad you finally discovered them... You can make a good Sheppard's pie on the stove top with them
Leaving for Alaska t-minus four days, thanks Chris for the inspiration and info!
Where in Alaska?? I live in Anchorage and explore the state on a regular basis!
Instant regret! LOL. That is so true.
Great video Chris!! Those mountain views were spectacular, thanks for sharing!!
Camping in colorado drinking my coffee and watching you camp in Alaska
I love that trackable Geocache decal idea. Posted your video to my Jeep FB page. Always enjoy the videos.
Chris check out Coyote Works videos of his Rubicon burning out in the Oregon wilderness. Something to be aware of. Enjoy your doings....
Rear brakes seem to wear out first. I got 50k on my original rear brakes. Changed the front at 60k and they still had a third of the pad left.
Nice scenery. The colors were fabulous!
Rough week, great ending watching your video. Well done, thank you!
Another great video!!!! I look forward to each new 'installment' each week when you post them.
I use those potatoes almost every trip everyone loves it. Come in a variety of flavors too.
Excellent vid! The Taco Bell segment was really funny, beautiful scenery.
Excellent and inspiring stuff...stay safe, keep recording
Great video, thank you!
I spent 30+ years in Ketchikan (My thumbnail pic is in Ketchikan). I miss my dear friends who live there but I'll never live there again. Nothing goes on there and the rain NEVER stops. EDIT: Nice 'B'-roll footage of Ketchikan.
Taco Bell --- well there is some green in a taco. I liked the Log Fort. I see that a lot in Angel Fire NM. Glad your Jeep was not bad. You looking for a new one? Saw you checking out the new ones at the dealership. Thanks again for taking us along. You make me want to do some Jeep trips!
Great Videos Chris, but that is not Homemade mashed potatoes.
Hi. watched you first time yesterday. You’ve been explaining your car and it’s equipment . You also mentioned that you’re not happy with the soft rag taking the rear view to the right while driving . That got me thinking if you would set up you’re rag behind your driver seat you’d potentially have the same set up inside only moved from passenger side to driver side but you could see through the windows on your right side 😜.
Take care🙋🏻♂️
0:56 LOL. When you add water to some contents in a bag while in a Jeep parked in the woods, and call it 'homemade.'
I never regret eating taco bell. I don't know what you guys are talking about. Lol
Lonely Life Chris!
i like so much , wt u do bro....keep it up
i like also like ur life style in india.....i don't have money like u....i belongs a farmer family....and i am also a photographer
Sorry to say, but dehydrated potatoes have been around for decades! Not that I'm a big fan of them, but they will do in a pinch when you have weight/storage restrictions. I took them on hikes back in the early 90ies and they weren't exactly new back then. Generally I prefer to cook from scratch - so I have a offroad trailer with a galley in the trunk. Not big enough for 5 course gourmet meals, but great for everything else.
I feel you about Taco Bell. The only thing I can eat from their menu is the hard shell tacos supreme's. Better to make your own. Soft tacos are quickly made on a griddle or cast iron pan and fill them with whatever you like (or leftovers). Yummy. Easy to make on a campfire.
hope this isn't rude because it isn't meant to be. I really enjoy watching and following. I am now going to also find the blog. If you don't mind me asking how old you are? I really appreciate what you did and went out and doing it and making it work!!
I really want to see your current rig walkaround!
Thanks for the adventures. Just wanted to say I feel you’re pain as far as bad food goes (Taco Bell). There is a UA-cam yoga instructor that occasionally does a vlog along with her yoga videos. One of her vlogs addressed diet, subscribers were asking what she eats. She didn’t really get into what her diet is but she more or less said to pay attention to what your fueling your body with, and most importantly how that food makes you feel.
My diet this year hasn’t been bad by any means but occasionally I would crave something. That week I watched that vlog I craved a burger, so I made a juicy cheeseburger. I will tell you this; that burger, while tasty as can be, certainly did not make me feel better it actually made me feel pretty crappy. I have since become a, not really a vegetarian but I am now a meatless person.
While I would never push anything on anyone I can only say that I do feel better when I eat clean vs prepackaged not so good food choices
To each.....
Journey on
Amazing and inspiring videos. I am from Ecuador, we have nature but your stuff is singular.. one question.. have you encounter bears while walking the trails and if so do you carry any protection? Keep it cool, keep it safe. God Bless 😎👌👍🤙
DOING A LOT OF DIRT / GRAVEL / SAND ROAD DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR BRAKE PADS MORE ?
Surely you've tried to make your jeep in minecraft
Chris, really enjoy your videos. Question: have you considered getting a small highway legal dirt bike and using a hitch rack? I Jeep overland in Colorado and always thought that would be a great addition for the times when you set up camp but still want to run into town.
To be far to SEAK anything looks nice compared to Juneau and Ketchikan. I've been on POW for 4 years and you could of spent a month camping there without camping in the same spot twice.
Glad there was nothing major or expensive to repair. Was a Cheezit day. 😀 What was your first initial impression on the JL in person? Did you test drive one? Enjoy your day and stay safe and as always I look forward to seeing your videos.
Brewing is my hobby now so I love the brewery clips. But I despise saisons blah.
Taco Bell... that was funny!
18:28 You are not alone Chris.
Been following your vids, good stuff, thanks. Seting my jk rubicon up for overland lifestyle. Curious what suspension mods and tire size you are running. I want a slight lift and maybe 33s on stock driveline. What have you found ?
"See the potatoes coagulating?" Yep. No more instant mashed for me.
17:31 Wow, looks like an extinct volcano !
I have to ask, if you know that your pads are worn out, why do you not just buy brake pads and replace them instead of driving with them grinding for hundreds of miles?
Because Taco Bell isn’t food! Jen had you eating right!
You hope a stealership experience is painless? lol good luck with that.
I make those potatoes every once in a while too...what kind of air compressor do you use for inflating your tires? I have been thinking of getting the via 400p one since some jeepers have good reviews on them. If you are down central oregon way give me a holler....ghosthonda on youtube.
Great video! Is that a Titanium Life My Fire spork @21:44? Thanks
what lens and camera do you use when filming?
Another great video. Do you have a name for your Jeep?
Hi Chris, love your videos. I don't know if u stopped using your Canon, but a lot of shots seem overexposed... Just thought I let u know.
If you have no idea where you are going - - - ANY ROAD WILL GET YOU THERE.............
Hi Chris: Just out of curiosity, would you tell us what was done, and how much the dealer charged?
Homemade potato's at its finest. Apparently I've been doing it all wrong!!
Coagulate is not a word you use when preparing food, lol!
You obviously never met my ex wife.
I remember you got a new camera but I can't remember which one you got. hat are you using now?
How many miles are on the old girl at this point? 110K?
We have that instant mash potato stuff here in the UK its called Smash its basically the Potato version of spain, not real potato and it does taste awful and not to mention god knows what illness it will cause u to get when u get older due to all the GM ingredients such as Sodium Metabisulphite which is used as a Disinfectant , so i would say definitely something you should not be eating , companies like Monsanto are evil.
What is the water system your using to clean cookware at the beginning?
you can find it on amazon. its called nemo helio.
Too bad you didn’t get a chance to go up to Stewart, you would be very impressed
How do I contribute to his Patreon ?
In this episode: Chris promotes the virtues of a low carb diet.
Looks like your plate has expired?
Bless your little soul, how long have you been away from home? H O M E M A D E
MASHED POTATOES ARE MADE FROM dug up from the ground potatoes. I DON'T CARE. I LOVE YOU SO.
I watched a YT video where the guy packed his RYT up wet and forgot to reopen it when he got home. When he finally opened it after 2-3 weeks it was destroyed by mold. What happens to them if you are in rain for 2-3 weeks or more?
Why does Chris have an issue with Taco Bell? I'm confused.
no excuse to have these kind of breakdowns. These are things that should be checked before any trip
how have you made it all these years is mind boggling you can't even pour water.........................................................................
I like your vids at first but then I realized how sad it's to travel alone and experience exciting places like you do and nobody to share with..not even a dog..
I have a jar fish for you when you get to rupert . Msg me on face book buddy
