  • In this video we leave Holbrook, Arizona at the Petrified Forest National Park. We head towards Payson, Arizona. Above Payson is the Mogollan Rim, part of the Apache-Sitgreives National Forest. We find a beautiful camp right on the edge of the rim. We got a nice snow storm overnight which gave us a beautiful day to enjoy. Thank you for being here!
    *My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
    Thanks for watching!

    I have that same bottle thermometer, I really like it. At the bottom it shows the high and low temperature for the last 24 hours. They sell them at Walmart if anybody is interested.
