Chloe had me laughing out loud with her chattering all over your commentary. Tiff also getting more comfortable with talking to the camera. Another great vid showing off the beauty of our country! Look forward to the next one.
Cam and Tiff and beautiful Chloe the star off the show. It is so good to watch your adventure and the great job and the amazing place one day i will get to WA 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Hey Guys, just want to thank you for the great content you deliver. Love that it’s a family gig, so much similar content available but not much family stuff. I can appreciate it’s harder and takes more effort but I and I’m sure many others really do appreciate it. Well done Mate and to Tiff and Chloe, their input is what makes the content what it is, love your work. 👍🏼🇦🇺 Cheers
Another great episode. Chloe is developing into a very confident young lady, love her style. Thanks for your efforts and sharing, looking forward to the next one, stay safe, take care, cheers.
Another great video! Chloe is an absolute star! Loved the shot in the previous video where she was sleeping in the blue drum as you crossed the creek! Just magic! We visited Kununurra back in 2012. Can’t wait to get back! You have given us that extra little bit of inspiration! R and J
Another great episode guys. Drone footage is getting heaps better Cam. Ever episode my bucket list grows exponentially. Chloe has me in stitches again. I think I wouldn’t have been much older than Chloe when I was last time. So time to get back there me thinks. Big kids and rope swings. 😂
I LOVE this channel ! Love the content, the presentation and the commentary (Chloe's too). The drone videos are simply stunning. This has had some of the most beautiful footage I've ever seen... and dare I say magical - the Butterfly Cave and the mini Bungles. Thanks so much for your efforts guys, see you in the next one - Peter V.
Just love little Chloe she really does need her own channel 😀 Thanks again for taking us all with you on your adventures🙏 Ps we got our stickers . Looks awesome on the back of our van 👌
Another great video with great photography. The scenery is amazing so thanks for sharing. Best be careful as Chloe’s photobombing is a force to be reckoned with. Safe travels.
Another awesome video guys! Kununurra is definitely on my list. But i have to say, how dare you both steal Chloe's airtime in the car! LOL. One minute she's commentating her heart out, nek minit, asleep in the back! I reckon in between those two scenes it was like, "hey Tiff, just a few drops of rum in her milk?" haha love her! Keep up the excellent content guys!
Awesome vid again. I'm really enjoying your trip and making lots of mental notes for if we're ever allowed in your state again! Bit late today, got up early and took the kids to the beach. Put a travel buddy in the van last week, and I like all your tips. Will give it a run next week. Can't wait to see the review on the washing machine!! See you next week.👍👍
just binge watched the 10 episodes and its been brilliant only been in Oz for 12 months and one day hope to do this sort of adventure.... awesome videos and thank you for sharing ..... p.s. sorry guys but Chloe is the star of the show, what a well behaved young lady.....
G'day Cam n Tiff, great vid as per usual, how good is WA!!!! Currently down in Albany checking out your episodes from the opposite end of the state, keep em rolling guys
Looks like a great trip guys, life-long memories...did a couple of months up to Darwin and across the Gulf to Cairns 20 years ago with our (then) 4 year old and 15 month old, it was life changing. We have been looking at buying an MDC Forbes 13 for our trip to WA next year (assuming the borders open) and have appreciated seeing the van in action (25 years in tents is enough). Thanks again and safe travels.
Top vid guys we were there 2 years ago. But didnt go to all those places in kunnarra. But next year we r hitting road for 3 years... Cant wait... Buy the way.... Great pies at bakery in wyndem... Cheers. T. C
As always great video, hanging to get out, we hear tomorrow from Dictator Dan what our new freedoms will be. New Bullbar and winch goes on Monday getting ready though...
Thanks again for another great clip of your adventures , it is great that you put extra info of how you find different things ie found this on wikicamps as I always take note of this for future reference. Safe Travels
Just watched it now, I am hoping you guys continue on your big lap this year! 2023! (you mentioned 2024 pm your announcement- but cant wait another year!)
I lived in Kunna's for 6 years. If you're heading back towards kununurra from the bungles stop in at the wunan roadhouse and ask if you can have permission to go to "Harry's hole" and get a map too. I think you'd love it. Maybe think about leaving the trailer at the entrance or at the roadhouse. Thanks for the awesome videos and a chance to see kununurra again. Also the road (weaber plains rd) you were on to see the butterflies, if you keep going it'll take you to the Keep river, lots of salties, but you can camp there and you're definitely going to catch a barra
Have seen pictures on Harry's hole before and it looks amazing, I asked a few locals but they didn't know about it. Will have to check it out next time!
Cam made a comment a couple of weeks ago in the vid about WA being the best state in Australia, as a NSW person it begrudges me to say that based on what we have been shown in this series I might have to agree with him. Shame that their lap had to be curtailed, but in saying that WA is as big as most countries so we are sure that their trip will still have been worthwhile. I don’t know who is the worst fisho out of Justin from TIV of Cam. 🤔🤔. all still very entertaining though 👍😀
10:50 maybe earlier. These are the rock formations younger than the well known Purnululu formations, AKA Bungle Bugles. While the surface pieces are fragile and should never be touched, the roots of the rocks are from an 800 million year old formation, just like the upturned formations seen from a boat on the Ord.
It's a great ray of sunshine to lock down Victoria. Itching to get back on the road ourselves. Loving the drone shots. Can you tell us which one it is please.
How’s the pop top going? I’m debating solid walls vs pop top- need some feedback if that’s ok? Interested to know how it copes with weather variances? Love the videos- Chloe makes me laugh😀underpants on the head is the new look for sure!🩲
It's all a compromise. Having a pop top is great in hot weather, hot air rises so when you can unzip the vents the whole way around it cools down heaps quicker. Great airflow through the van. Also less wind resistance towing, so better fuel economy. Also better offroad because it's not as top heavy, feels more stable. Little bit of flapping in really heavy wind. And not as well insulated so when it's really cold it takes longer to warm up. And then you've got to factor in it takes longer to setup. But honestly it's 2 minutes to undo 4 clips and push it up. For us, on this trip it was the right decision. We're often off-grid with no air-con so keeping cool is the hardest thing for us to do. Having so much airflow makes it a lot more comfortable. Heating it is not an issue off-grid either, as we have a diesel heater fitted. If we were in seriously windy conditions we can still be totally set up with the roof closed, but Havnt needed to do that yet. Hope that helps.
24:32 great drone footage...I get the feeling the washing machine will cark-it and then be executed for non co-operation by spear-gun!! 😲 I bet nothing else will break down after witnessing that traumatic event...
Not in our experience. Tried to get some money off, or adds on included but I reckon they're sales staff are instructed not to budge. But it was a good product so we were prepared to pay what they asked.
Hey Guys, such an awesome series of “grounded” adventures....thank you for sharing! I am in Vic and have started planning my big get away....just a quick question if you don’t mind... what TPMS have you got mounted on the dash and are you happy with it?
Just found this channel - some great videos! Bringing back memories of a similar (but reverse direction) trip my parents took our family on in '84 - I was 12. I still have the diary from that trip, along with all the cloth badges we collected from the towns we visited! Chloe and you will remember and talk about this for years... Quick question and apologies if you have previously answered - as a keen photographer I'd like to know what you are using video/sound wise to record and edit? Keep the great videos coming...
Cheers mate. Just very basic gear: Shooting video with a couple of GoPro hero 8s mainly, occasionally iPhone 11 or sony a6400. Using Rode mics with wind socks, and occasionally a rode wireless go lavalier. Drone is a DJI mavic air. Editing with imovie on a MacBook Pro. I know I could step it up with a better lens for the a6400 and an electric gyro for some stability. But it's so much easier to go 'run and gun' vlog style with a GoPro and focus more on content rather than setting up slick shots!
@@WildTouring Thanks for the info. The run 'n' gun works well, so no I don't think there is a real need for the gyro/gimbal - and as you said, allows you to enjoy the actual experience rather than be bogged down on shot setup and so on. And audio sounded great so assumed you were using some mic's. Thanks again!
Not sure if you have ever mentioned it and I missed it but what sort of weekly costs do you incur on average? Obviously it will vary depending on fuel and repairs etc but it might be interesting for people to know if they are planning something similar. I remember reading, a few years back now, about the costs of towing a reasonably large van around Australia and it was a fairly eye opening number each week. Free camps will bring the costs down but then you would have to spend more on equipment to begin with to make it somewhat comfortable for everyone. Just interested as I have a bit of a number in my head.
Old Bloke yeh I was just wondering the same thing just before I watched this ep. and was going to ask the same question 😊 so Cam are you running some sort of spread sheet on your running costs. Be really keen to see how much it’s costing, that’s if you don’t mind sharing. We went to Kununurra around 20 years ago when we were living in Katherine NT. We stayed at the big 4. Just watching the vid brought back great memories as our kids were little then as well. We did pretty much the same things you show in this video, there was a great little museum in Wyndham that had a lot of interesting stuff pertaining to the history of the area. We also bought a carved boab nut from an Aboriginal guy who was sitting outside under a tree just carving pictures into the outside of the boab nuts, we still have it as we consider it real aboriginal art.
Tiffs pretty good with the figures stuff (and managing our finances in general 😂). She keeps a really detailed spreadsheet that breaks it all down. She's posted our 1month stats on FB with the full break down. But basically we're averaging $1200 a week for the first couple of months. That includes a few blow outs we wernt expecting. And averaging 17.5l/100kms in the dmax.
@@WildTouring Yeah maybe not quite as much as I was expecting tbh. Would help big time that you can do a lot of your own maintenance/repairs when needed. I can only imagine what a major mechanical failure would cost out there with towing, parts in remote areas and mechanics who knew you didn't have other options. Goes to show how important a bit of mechanical knowledge and equipment to find problems before they develop in to major issues is as well imo. Thanks for the videos guys. Excellent as always.
What a world we live in when grown adult men and women do not know anything as compared to a little kid. Seems your child knows more about putting rubbish in the bin more then some adults out there. Great video looked like a great time spent up there.
08:50 "black rocks". Why are they black rocks? Found everywhere water rises or falls over a long period of time. McKenzie Falls and Mitchell Falls are the best exemplars of old age. Up the river from the Horizontal Falls, the rocks aren't yet quite black. Up the Ord, which is very old, not many black rocks; which also speaks to age. Looking forward to your comments and opinion on the Kapok Tree.
Its a risk that's for sure. But there's steps you can take to minimise the risk like standing well back from the edge, never turning your back on the water and choosing shallow clear spots where you've got more chance of seeing whats around you.
14:10 not a Bull Shark. Probably a Dusky Whaler or a Gummy, both thrive in shallow water. Could've been, also, a Carcharhinus plumbeus. Bull Sharks work in deep, harbour tidal flows; which is why they're found in Sydney Harbour.
Could well be! Couldn't tell from that height. But bull sharks definitely work shallow inland river systems. Grew up on the Swan River and saw many in knee deep water way upstream.
CelFi go. It's the only legal booster available as far as I'm aware. About $1000, works okay. Will only boost reception if there's something to boost. So basically extends range out a little further from cell towers. But won't work if there's no reception at all.
Didn't actually notice when I was editing, but got a msg letting me know from a subscriber who spotted us passing through Tom Price the other day. Cheers mate 👍
In the canopy - 300w solar mounted to roof, 2x 100ah Lithium batteries (ALLSPARK LiFePO4's), 40a enerdrive dcdc charger, Giandel 2000w pure sine wave inverter, victron BMV712 Bluetooth battery monitor. Works really well, allows us to run microwave, milk frother and charge drill batteries /camera gear daily.
@@WildTouring thanks all setting up a similar in the canopy now lithium not cheap tho .You guys straying up north for a while longer just watched E10 keep up the great videos
Yeah I know what youre saying, they generally poke them away for a while until they start to break down. And I know cows are pretty silly and often get stuck in the mud, have seen it happen in low dams. But the base was solid river rock, he wouldn't get stuck, his neck was ripped open so he'd definitely been chewed on. And he was only half submerged, so the average salty would not be able to drag a 500kg+ cow much further (he was already a good few meters from the bank where the cows come down) .
We didn’t take too much notice as we didn’t have a dog at the time but wikicamps is great as you can filter by dog friendly sites. A lot of the national parks in WA are not dog friendly unfortunately.
Mate you have done your self a injustice go back in the wet it is fantastic go in on the snake river rd to the back of valintines falls it’s wicked and all the water falls are going
The Butterfly cave is stunning. Absolutely beautiful
Cam you’re a lucky man! Tiff you are absolutely beautiful!
I know!
Chloe had me laughing out loud with her chattering all over your commentary. Tiff also getting more comfortable with talking to the camera. Another great vid showing off the beauty of our country! Look forward to the next one.
Touring with the Wild's is awesome. Thanks for taking me with you, what a wonderful trip.

Footage of Ivanhoe Crossing best ever seen thanks great coverage of Kununurra area as awesome part of Oz
That was good, love Aussie lifestyle. Thanks
Can’t wait to get outta Melbourne !
Gee you guys are lucky i tell ya
Some great locations in your vid. Love the drone work! The jewell of the waterways in the KNX area is the lower Ord.
Another great video with great photography. The scenery is amazing so thanks for sharing. Best be careful as Chloe’s photobombing is a force to be reckoned with. Safe travels.
Awesome content once again. Chloe is certainly becoming more vocal. ❤️ look forward to next week.
Nice, thanks for sharing!
Was losing it laughing when chloe was talking over you brother hahaha reminds me of my little one! Keep safe guys
Pistollll
Looks like mum and dad have become extra's in the Chloe Wild Touring youtube channel.

Wild Touring practicing for adulthood 🤣🙉
@@WildTouring haha she's awesome!
great video guys.. Love the butterfly cave! and the part where you put the drone up looking fo rthe salty and found it! Keep up the great work..

Love kunnanara its something else thats for sure
Those butterflies were beautiful.
Finally some proper walking shoes😂, another great episode. Chloe so cute 🥰
As always great video, hanging to get out, we hear tomorrow from Dictator Dan what our new freedoms will be. New Bullbar and winch goes on Monday getting ready though...
i used to go to school in Kununurra missed that place, we used to ride our bike to the ord river dam and catch Barra at the base of the dam.
It's the "Chloe Touring" show hahaha funny as.... LMFAO @ Killing the Washing Machine !

Haha unfortunately its off until 2025 now!!
But we still manage to get away a fair bit in the meantime!
Great job Camo love the vid
That coffee cut was hilarious
😂
I lived in Kunna's for 6 years. If you're heading back towards kununurra from the bungles stop in at the wunan roadhouse and ask if you can have permission to go to "Harry's hole" and get a map too. I think you'd love it. Maybe think about leaving the trailer at the entrance or at the roadhouse. Thanks for the awesome videos and a chance to see kununurra again. Also the road (weaber plains rd) you were on to see the butterflies, if you keep going it'll take you to the Keep river, lots of salties, but you can camp there and you're definitely going to catch a barra

I don’t know who is the worst fisho out of Justin from TIV of Cam. 🤔🤔. all still very entertaining though 👍😀
Haha I know who's worse!! Definitely me! I like to give the fish a chance 😂
10:50 maybe earlier. These are the rock formations younger than the well known Purnululu formations, AKA Bungle Bugles. While the surface pieces are fragile and should never be touched, the roots of the rocks are from an 800 million year old formation, just like the upturned formations seen from a boat on the Ord.
It's a great ray of sunshine to lock down Victoria. Itching to get back on the road ourselves.
Loving the drone shots.
Can you tell us which one it is please.
Thanks mate, it's a DJI mavic air. Great drone for the price and size.
How’s the pop top going? I’m debating solid walls vs pop top- need some feedback if that’s ok? Interested to know how it copes with weather variances? Love the videos- Chloe makes me laugh😀underpants on the head is the new look for sure!🩲
It's all a compromise. Having a pop top is great in hot weather, hot air rises so when you can unzip the vents the whole way around it cools down heaps quicker. Great airflow through the van. Also less wind resistance towing, so better fuel economy. Also better offroad because it's not as top heavy, feels more stable.
Little bit of flapping in really heavy wind. And not as well insulated so when it's really cold it takes longer to warm up. And then you've got to factor in it takes longer to setup. But honestly it's 2 minutes to undo 4 clips and push it up.
For us, on this trip it was the right decision. We're often off-grid with no air-con so keeping cool is the hardest thing for us to do. Having so much airflow makes it a lot more comfortable.
Heating it is not an issue off-grid either, as we have a diesel heater fitted.
If we were in seriously windy conditions we can still be totally set up with the roof closed, but Havnt needed to do that yet.
Hope that helps.
Thank you!!!
24:32 great drone footage...I get the feeling the washing machine will cark-it and then be executed for non co-operation by spear-gun!! 😲 I bet nothing else will break down after witnessing that traumatic event...
😂
Excellent vid, Also wanted to know re your van , was their much ability to negotiate on price with MDC ?
Not in our experience. Tried to get some money off, or adds on included but I reckon they're sales staff are instructed not to budge. But it was a good product so we were prepared to pay what they asked.
You guys do a great video, you s have 50,000 subscribers
Hey Guys, such an awesome series of “grounded” adventures....thank you for sharing! I am in Vic and have started planning my big get away....just a quick question if you don’t mind... what TPMS have you got mounted on the dash and are you happy with it?
Cheers David. It's an oricom wireless/solar TPMS. Works great for the car, but in hindsight should have bought one that monitors van tyres too
Chloe is a charmer......

There's some grubs out there mate! It really grinds me.. And it's starting to rub off on Chloe which makes me super proud!

Ha, Five Fingers Lookout..... You're getting it mixed up with the discount that shares that name.

Cam you need to hit Mr Buckaroonie up for fishing tips cool vids by the way 👌🏻
Big fan of Bucks! Was really hoping to meet him this trip.
Ripa vid guys
Hi mate,
What do you use in your use to boost your phone network?
CelFi go. It's the only legal booster available as far as I'm aware. About $1000, works okay. Will only boost reception if there's something to boost. So basically extends range out a little further from cell towers. But won't work if there's no reception at all.
Suppose you found out your left light had blwon when you checked the footage.
Didn't actually notice when I was editing, but got a msg letting me know from a subscriber who spotted us passing through Tom Price the other day. Cheers mate 👍
what sort of 12v set up are you guys running in your canopy eg batteries, chargers, solar, etc etc thank you
In the canopy - 300w solar mounted to roof, 2x 100ah Lithium batteries (ALLSPARK LiFePO4's), 40a enerdrive dcdc charger, Giandel 2000w pure sine wave inverter, victron BMV712 Bluetooth battery monitor. Works really well, allows us to run microwave, milk frother and charge drill batteries /camera gear daily.
@@WildTouring thanks all setting up a similar in the canopy now lithium not cheap tho .You guys straying up north for a while longer just watched E10 keep up the great videos
So I take it the washing machine is dead
Certainly is now 😂
13:40 the animal got stuck and drowned somewhere. If a salty took it, it'd be forked in an underground root somewhere.
Yeah I know what youre saying, they generally poke them away for a while until they start to break down.
And I know cows are pretty silly and often get stuck in the mud, have seen it happen in low dams.
But the base was solid river rock, he wouldn't get stuck, his neck was ripped open so he'd definitely been chewed on. And he was only half submerged, so the average salty would not be able to drag a 500kg+ cow much further (he was already a good few meters from the bank where the cows come down) .
Were those tourists waiting to be eaten at Ivanhoe Crossing ?
😂 pretty crazy hey. Literally 3m crocs cruising around there!
your favourite footwear the fong
What about Molly Spriings?
Ah good. I spoke too soon.
Next time you'll have to include Lake Argyle, and maybe even do the Triple J tour.
😂 Lake Argyle and the sundown boat cruise is next episode.
Are any of these places so far dog friendly.. Do any of NP,s allow dogs,,
It is very few but some do.
We didn’t take too much notice as we didn’t have a dog at the time but wikicamps is great as you can filter by dog friendly sites. A lot of the national parks in WA are not dog friendly unfortunately.
How do you know where you can and cant swim? 🐊
Rangers, locals, signage and WikiCamps are all options! 👍🏼
Mate you have done your self a injustice go back in the wet it is fantastic go in on the snake river rd to the back of valintines falls it’s wicked and all the water falls are going
