    Taking your kids off grid is one of the best things you can do for them. My youngest took his first steps in a tent on a rainy camping trip. I am taking my boys, now 15 and 19, backpacking for a week in Colorado this summer. I wouldn't trade these times for the world.

    I have an 18 month old daughter. My first and a true blessing. It’s one of my favorite things taking her outdoors and showing her new things. I always appreciate your videos and knowledge you share. Thanks for taking us for the ride! Take care and keep ‘em coming. Nice rig too!

    Hell yeah !!! Been doing for years and they were some of the most adventurous, memory making, family bonding times of all. Late night yabby catching, frog spotting, baby trout collecting, camp cooking etc, just unreal and memories our kids will treasure for the rest of their lives. They can’t be replicated by an app on an iSomething 😁🤔👍 the further away from electricity, wifi and screen time - the better !
    great stuff Ronny 👍🇦🇺

    When my daughter asked me for a favor I said ok but make me a cup of coffee. She smiled. But I added "without gas or elecricity" 10 minutes later I had a fresh cup of coffee brewed on our Hobo stove. She is a big outdoors enthusiast.
    So one day I decided to take her best friend along on a camping trip. First that for freaked out as dozens of exotic butterflies tried to land on our arms to lick salt. She thought they sting! She refused to swim in the crystal clear river because she saw some trout swimming. At breakfast she started removing the little specs of ashes from the freshly baked bread. The rest of the day she was waking around the camp holding her iphone high above her head trying to get cell connection.

    We took our kids off grid a few times. Cape York, Simpson Desert crossing, Corner country, Gulf country. My kids have happy memories of those times, & my son is now embarking on adventures with his own young family. Highly recommend it.

    At the right age, and if I had kids, I’d totally take them wild camping. For about three seconds at the end I was surprised that you were going to let your oldest daughter drive and though how cool that would be. By the 4th second I remembered that the driver is on the other side in Australia. Lol😂

    Took the grandkids last week for a six day trip 👍 A three, and six year old, woke up with ice on the tent three mornings in a row. They loved it!

    I completely understand what you are on about when it comes to laden and unladen weight, I ( Shock Horror Trauma !) have a decently lifted Forester and I opted for heavy duty springs in the back for when I'm in touring mode and I have to say, when I run without my standard recovery gear in the back between trips, even stuff like basic carpark speedbumps can be gang violent......

    Wish you all the best..we did traveling together for 19 years in a row… now 4 years later living 8,000km apart to admit 3 years to much… and miss the time.. bloody Covid …Time for us to make changes now…
    To the Audience, have winching kids on a trip?! Ops the the trip is maybe not suitable planned catering for them.
    Yes, real winching kids… see on yt “Linda listen” and be happy not in her boots !!!
    Nice Sunday arvo

    It looks like to me you have the perfect touring set up now when towing a trailer. I think it must be easier to keep within weights but still have all the luxuries of outback touring which I feel you have been doing most of the time. Your tow rig is certainly lighter and all you have to do is disconnect to do the extreme stuff which is not too often. You were against towing a trailer what are your thoughts now?
