Finally getting back on track and working on getting the rest of this trip edited! I was super stoked to finally make it to Yellowstone for my very first time this summer! Thanks for sticking with me!
Honestly appreciated you putting the semi-failed hunt for a camping spot in the video. I had one of those moments recently where it felt like all I was doing was driving aimlessly. It’s a good reminder it happens to all of us and we just need to be flexible
Thanks for watching Lora! It's definitely easy for me to get down on myself when I can't find that elusive "perfect spot", especially with the added pressure of trying to make videos! I think you're right, flexibility is key, and in the future I think my goal will be to have a better Plan B and C before heading out!
Cool video. I like how you start a camp fire. And great looking hot dogs. Yellowstone is a breathtaking place but true that it is difficult to find dispersed camping.
Thanks for checking it out! That little snow peak torch is serious overkill, but always brings a smile to my face when it roars up like a jet engine! haha
Hi Ben enjoying your channel but the bit that got me to subscribe was the spider part. Very funny and many can relate as we discover unwanted nasty critters hitched a ride and we discover this while trying to maintain control.
I just stumbled across you channel man! Thanks for sharing your adventures. as a fellow content creator, I'd love to collab with you one day. I just ordered a 2021 4Runner!
Thanks for watching this one, Ody! Always great to have you here! I was definitely tempted to turn around, but figured this may be the shortest those lines of cars ever get 😂
First video and I just subscribed. I've been searching for dispersed camping around Yellowstone for awhile. My family, wife and a 13 and 8 yr old girls, are headed up at the end of may/beginning of June. Any sites that you found that you can share? Funny that you did the touristy thing and bought a couple of t-shirts. We're in a Tacoma and I'm hoping there will be enough room for me for the ride home after all the t-shirt purchases from the women.
Hey man! Hit me up and Instagram and I can try to help point you in the right direction! In general, the national forest north of West Yellowstone was the best I found in the area!
We also want up Lulu pass but didn’t end up staying there. Was the jeep trail you went up goose lake trail? We drove up it about 100 yards and backed back down. Didn’t want to risk it being the only vehicle and no sliders/protection.
The truck looks equipped enough to tackle goose lake trail. Plus you don't have to go to end to find epic sites, there's a couple along the way next to the lakes. We went to the end and it was the best dispersed site of our yellowstone trip.
@@BenStinnett i grew up in Rexburg Idaho. So with a 3 hour radius of Rexburg. That was my basic stomping grounds. Sure do miss it over there. I preferred Island Park over going into Yellowstone.
Also here’s some fun adventures Upper Mesa Falls is a waterfall on the Henrys Fork in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest. Upstream from Lower Mesa Falls, it is roughly 16 miles away from Ashton, Idaho. Upper Mesa Falls is roughly 114 feet high and 200 feet wide
@@BenStinnett Good deal! Makes me think of your "2020 Preview" video when you mentioned a bear chased you into getting a rooftop tent. Would love to hear that story haha

An adventure! Even not so good days are great days in retrospect!

Great tips Ben! Can’t wait to see Yellowstone some day
Thanks man! It was definitely incredible. Glad I finally made it there!

Thank you so much for subscribing! Those critters definitely keep finding ways to hitch rides with me, and they don't even chip in for gas!
First guy that I’ve seen to go camping with a blow torch. 😂
Is it overkill? Totally. But does it bring a smile to my face every time I light it up? 100%
@@BenStinnett brought a smile to my face too. May have to make it a staple in my camp gear for future trips.
I have been using one for 30 years... If you have damp wood you can still get a good fire going🔥

Oh wow you’re in for a treat! Let’s make it happen!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!
Appreciate it, Art!
Nice video bro. Envy on your trip. Hope to go one day.
This has been a long time in the making! Thanks for watching bro, hope you're able to make it out there one day!
Happy birthday, dude!
🎉 Thank you!
Can you give a tour of your 4runner sometime? Looking to buy one in the future and would love to see/learn more about it. Great videos by the way!
Hey Christopher! That's a great idea, keep an eye out for that video soon!
We ran into the same problem trying to find dispersed camping haha
Yeah wow that was a struggle! Hopefully you ended up with a decent enough spot to rest!
Hi Ben. At 2:14 I would have turned around & left. I really like your videos. Thanks! Regards from Ody Slim
Thanks for watching this one, Ody! Always great to have you here! I was definitely tempted to turn around, but figured this may be the shortest those lines of cars ever get 😂

Thank you!
When matching the hatch gets rejected, I go to prince nymph or mosquito dry
I’ll take all the tips I can get! Thanks Nate 🙌

Yeah it's that exact spot man! Awesome that you know it. The trail got super sketchy 😂

@@kennethdeleon2426 Thanks for the comment Ken! I think you're definitely right about goose lake! It is on my to-do list!
Go to Lake Henry. Near that entrance.
Great trout fishing
Awesome man! Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching!

How do you get to the spot you were at around 17:55
I guess that qualifies as a 1 match fire....
Something like that 😂
Any issues with grizzlies cooking that food?
Hey Will! I followed basic bear safety practices (cooking at least 100 yards away from where I parked to sleep) and lived to tell the tale! haha
@@BenStinnett Good deal! Makes me think of your "2020 Preview" video when you mentioned a bear chased you into getting a rooftop tent. Would love to hear that story haha
Did you go by yourself?
Yeah, I was solo on this! Thanks for watching, Chris!
why not show more of what you're looking at..instead of showing yourself most of the time ?
