    That was a bucket for heavy equipment or a dump truck bed. Mining equipment most likely. I’m here for all the random prison references lol so funny Craig & Victoria!

      Ahh so interesting! When we drove by, I thought it looked like a dump truck bed, but thought “we’ll that’s WAY too big so that can’t be it”….didn’t think about mining and off highway type applications!

      That is a dump truck specifically designed for the Coppermine in Utah directly west of where you guys are staying you should check it out. It’s actually really awesome place to visit and amazing to see the copper mine operation.

    We did Pistachio Land a couple years ago and it's definitely a fun stop, we recommend it too! Craig, you and them flippity flops are killing me. Put some darned shoes on when you're dumping!!! You're gonna wind up with poopsie toes one day! For a water tip, we'll catch the water used waiting for the shower to heat up and use that for washing dishes or a toilet flush. Boondocking is all about the water use! Safe travels kids!!!

    Shorter hair makes showering quicker Craig! OR you could be like me with NO hair. That makes it really quick! One thing I didn’t like about the on/off switch in the shower was that it always came out cold at first. That Brinkley really is beautiful.

    After the sand storm is over, inspect your truck and rv very carefully for paint damage. My dad worked for the railroad and had to drive through the Mojave Desert, and insurance companies had to repaint his car three different times due to sand pitting and scouring the paint down to bare metal.

    Maveriks started out as just a regular car gas station. They have recently (past few years) started opening the trucker style gas stations. If you get their app you can see which stations have the RV/Trucker islands, dumps, etc. (In case you didn't already have it,) It was a rock dump bed. Safe Travels.

    I use the shower wand and either run it in the toilet till hot or but in a bucket for dishes. The black tank is always the last to fill its always the grey that fill first for me. Plus more water in black is good for it.

    Rosie and I have been together a little over 54 years. We started travelling back when I was in the Army when we first married. Cue 66 Mustang, a song I wrote of our wandering from fort to fort while I trained troops for our war in Vietnam. Now we currently have a Brinkley Z3100 and are winding our way home to Wisconsin after spending the last four and a half months boondocking outside of Yuma, Az at the LTVA. We are staying a week in Deming NM where for 10 dollars a day we are also boondocking. Burlington Bill busking on the road and on you tube. Enjoy the music.

    We boondock 4-6 months on our property in Baja. Composting Toilet, lots of Solar, water plants with our Grey Water, 1000 gal water tanks for showers, propane refill once per month, haul drinking water from town weekly when we go for supplies. When travelling 2 weeks is our max for water and propane. We also travel on weekends and sometimes will travel Wednesdays to get caught-up. We have a Shorts showing our Baja setup. Enjoy and safe travels. Christian & Tracey.

    Do you have a blue boy so you can do a tank tank dump? As for saving water I have an idea. I don’t know if it’s a good idea but here I go. Use a dish pan in your kitchen sink for doing your dishes. When done with doing the dishes use that dish water to flush the toilet on those #2’s. Any thoughts my friends? A 2 for 1. Lol 😂 get it? #2 for #1. Thats just funny there. 😊

  • @goneretired7030
    @goneretired7030 2 місяці тому

    I do a lot of boondocking. I have a composting toilet so no black water tank. I don’t use my shower but instead take a sponge bath. For dishes, I use a spray of 1/2 water and 1/2 clear vinegar. So I end up only consuming about 5 gal of water a week. This lets me boondock for about three weeks with no hookups.

  • @phyllissmith1105
    @phyllissmith1105 10 місяців тому

    That big thing was mining equipment. We fill up our hot water pot (for tea) before we shower to run the cold water out. We also use paper plates and paper bowls to save water. Also, we wipe the grease and stuff out of pans with paper towels before we wash. It saves some water that way. And we're not even boondocking! We're just in a campground with no sewer hook ups. LOL We love the Moab area. There's so much to see around that area. Can't wait to see next week.

    If you ever get to South Dakota in the summer you have to stop at Mitchell to see the world’s only Corn Palace. Every summer they decorate the outside of the building (it’s the gym for the local college - Wesleyan College if I recall correctly) with corn of different colors yellow, red, blue and black to crest tableau’s of that year’s theme. It’s kitschy, but still definitely worth taking the time to see.

It’s really showing me that we may not always have to be in a RV park. I was a hairdresser in a female prison for over five years.

    Have you ever looked into installing a RedArc dc to dc converter to charge while going down the road. You can run six gauge wire from the truck battery to increase the charging amps.

    Getting to boondocking places are way out of the way ! Spend gas to get a free night & day - just asking - do you think it’s worth it ? I like the series . Interested. I’m sure you’ll show us the pros & cons. We had high winds here for days on end in Arizona too

      If we are just doing an overnight, we pick a spot along our travel path, but usually when we’re boondocking we’re staying at least a week or sometimes two, so it ends up being worth it for us!

    Beautiful shots of Utah!! What, visiting a giant pistachio - nuts to that 😊😊I like to use pistachios instead of pine nuts in my pesto. I was watching a vid where RVers were in the Mojave desert in March and it was snowing there too.

    Sadly the number of visitors has sky rocketed and people trashed it when it was free, so the costs cover dumpsters and rangers. i think porta potties too...although not sure on that.

    • @wildrvlife

      We have seen some portapotties around too! I think they are planning on developing it into a more structured campground, but for now it seems to be the same first come, first serve dispersed areas

    Put a sanitized bucket in your shower, to catch the cold water. Then fill the dog dish, and use the water for cooking, i.e. boiling noodles

    I truly love you two and your channel, so I hate my comment, but… if you are paying it is NOT Boondocking. The whole definition of Boondocking is paying nothing for the camp spot. There is a term for camping without services either paying or free, that is “dry camping” which is what you are doing in this video ;) Please keep up the GREAT videos, I just love you guys.
    P.S. regarding paper products… remember that doing that simply fills up landfills faster. There are methods of cleaning dishes without using as much water…. It’s much nicer to the environment we all love to enjoy when camping… food for thought…

    • @wildrvlife
      @wildrvlife  10 місяців тому +1

      We’re not one to get caught up in semantics (truly meant in a super chill way), because we have always read and seen the definition of boondocking as camping with no hookups on public land, which is what this is. Some public lands have transitioned to designated dispersed sites, or even require a permit (like this spot), but that may mean that those spots don’t “count” as boondocking to some people but it’s all good! We’ll probably still call it boondocking and continue to annoy people who care 😆 thank you for watching and glad you are enjoying them!

      @@wildrvlife you don't annoy me in the least, I am informed enough to understand what you are doing and how to do it. My only concern is for your rates with those new to your channel that are not as well-informed. They might hear you refer to boondocking as something you have to pay for and then just dismiss you as not being informed.
      A simple change in terminology to something like dry camping can accurately convey to your new viewers how informed and knowledgeable you two are on the subject. Just a thought, do with it as you like.
