    I just lost my Bindy of 13 years. Man, no matter how you think you prepare yourself.....but you just have to keep reminding yourself what an amazing life you gave them. Their belly's were always full, took endless adventures and gave them endless love ❤.

    I need to find this spot where the frogs croak. I too find it comforting bcoz it always reminds me of the sleepovers I had at my grandparents house many years ago.

    Awesome video Tyler! Thinking about your Coleman oven, I hacked together a cover from a welding blanket and the oven works so much better - heats fast and stays at temp. Also have a small stone in the oven that helps prevent burning on the bottom

    I used to go to Utah when I was a truck driver. With a big highway rig, there was no offroad adventure. I did get in a few very short hikes and explored some small towns. Got to see Edge of the Cedars State Park. I was able to park overnight right by the museum building and see it all the next day.

    Fricken awesome man - spent some time around St George - big storm came in - took refuge in a ghost town church. Lots of instant streams from the deluge - got rescued by a farmer and his tractor. Those are memories worth it. Hey im looking for cargo pants - like them tan ones and a pair of boots like yours with rubber on the tips - look way comfortable.

    • @IndependenceOverland
      @IndependenceOverland  7 місяців тому +1

      That’s a pretty cool memory to have! I could see that place flooding fast in a downpour!
      Everyone thinks it’s the “overlander” outfit but I argue it’s the ultimate camera guy outfit! Big pockets are awesome for camera work.
      Crispi boots are Italian made, and can be resoled. Discovered this brand from hunting brands. Just don’t buy their more hiker focused ones because they are stiff like a snowboard boot and hard to drive in. Great for mountaineering though!

      Fjallraven is the pant brand. They have various types. Some stretch, some don’t. They are expensive but I’m hard on clothes and my $100 pants kept ripping on me. Fjallraven have proven to be very durable.

      Ahhh man! I can’t take any more time off from work this year, or I would be all over it. Thank you for the update. What are the temperatures there right now? I assume since it’s starting to cool down, this is perhaps the sweet spot when it’s not too hot and not too cold for them.

      As the opener states, I release these as episodes at first because I can only edit so fast. And then I re-release them as a full length video because UA-cam often doesn’t show my subscribers that new videos are out. This gives people a chance to see the whole series in its entirety, and gives me a break for a week or two on releasing another video.

    Great, well made and informative video but the volume of the music is too loud.
    I am an old fart and have poor hearing, the music makes it difficult for me to hear what you are saying.
    Can these videos be made with music only when there is no voice?
    It would be greatly appreciated by us old folk!
    Keep the good work going!

      I always just fully tighten the kings for on road, and fully back them off for off road and it works great.
