Haha yeah I had fun making that part, and she did too! Thanks for watching buddy! Your gonna be ready to go pick some mushrooms this Fall after the next video!
Looks like it was a satisfying trip! Salamanders, mushrooms, peace and quiet, time shared with the pup...all good stuff. Looking forward to the next one.
@@OverLookAdventures I don’t know about yours, but ours is incredible. She’s a rescue so we aren’t 100% sure what all she is but I wish I had a whole pack of them! Incredible dog.
Epic video bro! Gorgeous and intimate…. Loved watching Blue go to work! 😆 Curious, what’s your procedure for getting Blue in the tent? If it’s anything like mine with my 60lb 13yr old pooch, it’s pretty damn sketch and scary EVERY TIME. I watched this one dude use a large cotton tarp and pull the ladder all the way out almost horizontal and wrap it which allowed the ladder to be used more as a bridge into the tent. 🤷♂️. Haven’t tried it yet, but I’m thinking about it.
Thanks David! She’s pretty awesome, and Blue is the exact size and age as yours. She’s actually pretty good about letting me scoop her up. I just grab her with both arms and walk up the ladder. Towards the top she usually starts scratching at the tent but she’s a pretty mellow dog. To get her down, I climb out and get about half way down and she will wait for me to do the same thing backwards. I think I got lucky with her haha!
@@IndependenceOverland haha. Yup pretty much exact same procedure. Man climbing with no hands and a potential squirrelly dog is not fun. Mines definitely a bit more anxious though and it takes a lot of coercing to get mine to stay still. She’s a shepard/heeled mix. I’ve fallen a couple times coming down. I’ve definitely been on the lookout for a simplified method but besides turning the tent and having the dog come in by climbing on the hood, the only other techniques I’ve found are via bridges of sorts.
@@davidrucci have you seen the company that makes a sort of wrap material for the ladder, so you can extend it fully and they can walk up? I’d assume the bottom of the ladder would need propped up a bit for a senior dog to have an easy time up. So still a bridge, but they look to be easy to pack.
Blues camera skills had me rolling. Great video Tyler and Happy new year!

I don’t get why this channel doesn’t have more views. Love the purposeful off-roading you do here
Thank you! It seems to be picking up some steam finally!
Stoked to come find more of these little beasties with you in the spring! Great video as always!
We will get us a biggin!

The next one will be a helpful guide for looking for chanterelle mushrooms to cook and eat. Thanks for watching!
The dog cam though 😍
Haha she’s the best!
I have a dog that looks pretty similar (gus). Glad you guys are having amazing adventures!
What breed is Gus specifically?
@@IndependenceOverland we ended up DNA testing him. He had pit, Shar pei, lab, boxer

@@IndependenceOverland same here, rescues are the best.
