When I was young, I only slept on the ground in a sleeping bag, or on a blanket. In my late teens and early 20's, I slept on a foam pad with a poncho over me if bad weather. In my later 20's, I started sleeping in a small tent. In my 40's, I got a big canvas tent, then sold that and bought a rooftop tent. Now, in my later 50's, a travel trailer is looking pretty good.
Get something with a propane furnace in it. And a propane fridge. Furnace or campers/van that are older than 20 needs new replacement hose routed from propane tank to furnace / gas fired water heater and 3-way refrigerator. Just a safety thing because the gas line do because brittle after a time. Causing natural gas leak or fire hazards.
I appreciate how you help us get a feel for where you’re at by keeping the talk to a minimum, which accentuates the crackling of the fire, the call of the doves and the whisper of the breeze. Cuervos guitar is the icing on the cake. Sets the mood just right! Thank you gentlemen for bringing us along. 🍻 Cheers!
Great video! I get too busy sometimes and don't get out so much. Your videos help me to feel that connection with nature that I'm missing even though I'm not out there... if that makes sense. ❤😊
Great outing. No way I could sleep in the open. The centipede is a prime example. It is said they will not crawl into your mouth when you are sleeping. But hey. I don’t want to prove that out. Great coffee. Great food. I’d like to check out that area of NM. Thanks for sharing.
Hey James spam is always one of our go to meal I always keep a can handy in my car kit. And this morning I made Me and my Son some spam & eggs also but I cube it up cook the spam first add some diced jalapeños then add the scramble eggs mixture add cook it up. Makes perfect breakfast burritos. Me and the wife enjoy your vlogs watched today well enjoying my spam & eggs tacos with my cup of joe. Thanks for making my Sunday breakfast enjoyable. ✌️ out from So. Cal.
Cooking trout in the desert just messes with my mind. Slicing spam with a Bowie is the definition of overkill. Doing hand to hand to hand to hand combat with a centipede. These are the things that make a camping trip memorable.🇨🇦
At least it wasn't a rattler cozying up to you!😃 I love the sound of coyotes at night when camping in the desert. Makes you feel like you're in a western movie! Had to add, while having your breakfast, the look on your faces was like, " What the hell are we eating?!"😂😂😂
Nice and easy camp out guys, enjoyed the sights and sounds. Fish looked tasty cooked over the fire and cold brew is mandatory😉 The pop open shelter is probably not the best option for that type of terrain, the "guest" could have been much worse. Spam done right is pretty good actually, just slice and boil for 5-8min to rid of excessive salt, from there you can cook it how ever you want(sauce or not). Great video and great music of course, well done, thanks to both. See ya soon.
Hi Guys. awesome video. Bro try and use some Feibing's Saddle soap for your boots you will love it. if you resole them get a thin rubber sole for the boots in the outdoors, cheers.
Oh, his music is like something from a dream. DOC said, "Nice-looking trout. That knife is gorgeous. Doc just gave away his poles said he never caught anything anyway lol. You needed frenchfries. MUCH LOVE FROM OHIO
Yup, the fish was probably over cooked… but I’m sure it tasted great with the Coors! Best time to season food is before you cook it. A little salt if you need it at the end.
those things are no joke. if you're not a desert rat like us take a look at Brave wilderness' video about the giant desert centipede. they're the only bug out here that makes me nervous.
How did you sleep? - Cuervo "with my eyes closed" and at 19:21- lizard runs away from the bad joke you can see past James left elbow. LOL Cuervo with a zinger?!?!?! so glad you guys had fun and a great video!
hola amigos, you had good food once again, i would have added some valentina myself to everything, but that just me. if your little pan is carbon steel you should season it so your food wont stick to it so bad, if it is just stainless steel you jus s.o.l. on the food sticking. keep up the good work amigos and have great day
Love the overnight videos getting out to recharge the battery is a great way to do it. I cowboy camped once woke up with a coyote at my feet. Stay safe my friends and keep exploring
At first thought that was the campsite at the midway point on the Pinetree Loop Trail. The view at 15:26 looks more like the west side of the campgrounds. Headed up there tomorrow actually. 👍
I like to make fresh trout a faster and easy way. It takes about ten minutes. All you need is some aluminum foil, butter, salt and pepper. You just fit the trout to a foil pouch; place a slice of butter stick lengthwise inside the trout. If you like, also add some onion inside as well. You just lay the sealed pouch at the edge of the fire coals. Turn it once about halfway thru the cooking time of 15-minutes. It takes slightly longer for large fish. This also works making baked potatoes that take about 45-minutes. I make extra and use them for making morning home fries. The same cooking process works for quail, Doves and chicken breasts. I made meatloaf and beef roasts using the same process. It also works for any fresh vegetables. It also is a good idea to freeze all your food you carry in hot weather. I freeze the butter and it stays hard in a thermos or soft cooler a long time. You also can freeze water in bottles and it saves weight in your pack and cooler leaving more room for Beer and food. It is much easier and less of a mess to deal with. 👍
Potato can be baked "as is": you just put a potatos in ashes under your fire for about 40 minutes. You need a thick layer of ashes. It can be produced with a big quantity of small branches in no time. Potato is ready if you can puncture it with a thin wooden stick or knife. You just peel it's covered with ashes skin out then your potato is good to go with fish, meat or anything else you got. 🙂 You may call it "potato with smoke". 😎
I'm actually gonna sleep in a tent finally next weekend. I usually don't camp because of ticks but I'll sit up all night catfishing all the time then walk home when the sun comes up. I have slept on my parents back porch a few times in the spring/fall before the ticks come out. My dad has the deer tick disease so I try to avoid them
I have noticed that some of Cuervo Negro's song have titles that sound Native American like Grandfather Bear's Story. Also Cuervo carries prayer items and a small pouch around his neck containing items special to him. Is Cuervo part Native American or was he raised around an indigenous culture? Another great video!
Great camp my friend
Cuervo is such a cool dude. Great guitar player with a sense of humor.

Wait till you hit your 70's and roughing it will come down to no room service after 9PM
A very relaxing video cuervo plays the guitar very beautifully😊
Unwind and destress with centipedes 😂

I am in Southern California and I'm so ready to get out of this craziness
Instant thumbs up when I hear the Maestro’s guitar . Great video guys !

"With My Eyes Closed." Cuervo KILLED me with that one! I had TEARS from laughing so hard!
Yeahhhh
The trout is leathery the mashed potatoes are runny but thank God the beers ice cold👍🍻
Love them yellow jackets
Great video as always boys!!!!❤🎉
I like your camping videos because they are calming, thank you for sharing.
Howd you sleep?
Cuervo- with my eyes closed.
Lmfao!😂
I always watch your videos before I sleep. It calms my mind
Worst part of camping is packing up cause you know its done 😢😢 great tritp guys food looked great
At least it wasn't a rattler cozying up to you!😃 I love the sound of coyotes at night when camping in the desert. Makes you feel like you're in a western movie!
Had to add, while having your breakfast, the look on your faces was like, " What the hell are we eating?!"😂😂😂
Looks like a very good time, Glad to see you both enjoying the outdoors!
Nothing beats a self caught, outdoor cooked dinner😊
I have to say that's some mighty beautiful country there in New Mexico
Beautiful video and relaxing as always, cuervo your music is something special! Love from Italy
I'm disappointed you were overdue for a beer, never let that happen 😂
Warm weather, cold beer, and guitar...Thats living ❤
for sure, also a great company
Holy yall like strong coffee
I love that Cuervo packed his tent up in about the same time James had his quick shelter… 😊
Beautiful music and scenery for a relaxing video.
Yes! Excited for your video. I’m literally in my camper car waiting out a thunderstorm on the shores of Lake superior camping lol much love guys!!
Always a good day when you guys have a new video. Thanks.

That Bowie knife is a work of art
Great video guy's! Looking forward to the next one.
Great video
Gotta admit you guys are absolutely some of my favorites. Looking forward to the next one.
Hi Guys. awesome video. Bro try and use some Feibing's Saddle soap for your boots you will love it. if you resole them get a thin rubber sole for the boots in the outdoors, cheers.
You're good, guys. I'm happy to see together ❤️ Love you guys 👦
Oh, his music is like something from a dream. DOC said, "Nice-looking trout. That knife is gorgeous. Doc just gave away his poles said he never caught anything anyway lol. You needed frenchfries. MUCH LOVE FROM OHIO
Great job boys, thank you for always inviting us along. Peace
Nice camping,...
Good times.
That owl noises in the background makes the music even better
I really enjoyed Cuervo playing live for the breakdown of camp! Great video as usual!! I have to get out to camp soon! Hopefully in New Mexico!
Centipedes are my #1 most hated creepy crawly. I would be screaming like a little girl if I had one on me. 😂😂😂
Looks like a new hat for Cuervo, I love it.
Yeah the other hat might make it through the year ..
Cuervo said "with my eyes closed" 😂😂😂
Yup, the fish was probably over cooked… but I’m sure it tasted great with the Coors! Best time to season food is before you cook it. A little salt if you need it at the end.
Good times. Thanks fellows.
Always a pleasure…
Have a good time.
Love your camping videos. Keep them coming!
That centipede looked big enough to cook and eat
those things are no joke. if you're not a desert rat like us take a look at Brave wilderness' video about the giant desert centipede. they're the only bug out here that makes me nervous.
Nice taking your time with the fish cooking 🍳🔪
It looks like a Spirit around the fire between minutes 13:38 & 13:55, even if it's the camera lens optic effect it looks like the Spirit of the woods.
Another great video guys! And Spam and eggs for breakfast has been a staple for most of my life!
👏👍 for fishing with spincast reels! My favorite. 👏🎣
Yessss! Welcome back! But those fish are insulted by sitting next to instant mashed potatoes lol
How did you sleep? - Cuervo "with my eyes closed" and at 19:21- lizard runs away from the bad joke you can see past James left elbow. LOL Cuervo with a zinger?!?!?! so glad you guys had fun and a great video!

I, too am drinking banquet beers now almost exclusively because of my boys. Cheers!
Love it!!!
Love the vid dudes ! Thanks !
Love the overnight videos getting out to recharge the battery is a great way to do it. I cowboy camped once woke up with a coyote at my feet. Stay safe my friends and keep exploring
I love Jalapeno Spam. It would be right up your alley.
I wish Cuervo would sing more

Very nice gentlemen😎
How'd you sleep? Wirh my eyes closed! 🤣🤣🤣 😎👍 Great video guys! Cheers - Luther
Another great video. Saludos desde Iowa.
Its been a while since you guys did a camping trip to Cloudcroft NM. Hope you guys visit that beautiful place again sometime soon.
I would probably have more than a couple beers while camping.😃

Fish skin ‘tortilla!’
Good times!
Cheers!🍻
Spam, Right on. I usually have a fried spam sandwich as one of my camping meals.
Looks amazing ❤❤❤
Keep it up. All our prayers to a quick healing process .
This was really awesome. Love seeing the trout over the fire. Cheers, James and Cuervo! 👍🏻✌️✌️
Comida sin Chile no es Comida...😉 Try the Jalapeno Spam ..😋
Great Video...🍻

Btw James, Thank You for introducing me to Crazy Crow Trading Post! I've been thumbing through their 2024 catalog - very cool! Cheers - Luther

With my eyes closed 😂😂😂😂
Where did you catch the trout?
What no green chili with your meal.
