Noice! Agreed, a bit too close to the interstate and all the trash, but a beautiful area. Wish we had more time, must go back!

very nice, and thank you. i bought some LED string lights from REI, theyre ok, but they burn through a 4400 mAh battery in a night but nothing special. now i have them set up around the roof line of my chicken coop ill take a look at these

Great Video. We have driven through there so many times and had no Idea there was so much out there. We got on Gaia and found tons of trails. We will be hitting that area this year for sure.

we carry a spare bottom mesh for our pit just in case, I had a friend add some of the fire color powder once and it messed up the first screen so now I always have an extra

Thank you for sharing! We are now convinced it was the sparkly powder mcfire powder. Going to run some experiments 🧐

That 2nd camping spot down that dirt road is definitely epic! I noticed you didnt show it.. I camp there during the winter and its almost always available.. but its a popular home base for rock climbers, so itll be nearly impossible to get once the weather gets a tad warmer.

The Columbia river is so calm it almost looks like a lake! Not sure about the millions of years to create the canyon but still beautiful. Gotta put in a plug for the sage brush. Such an amazing plant to be able to survive such a harsh climate and can live for well over 100 years. Love the videos on the east side of the cascades. Would love to see you guys visit dry falls near banks lake. Another amazing area in Eastern Washington.

Do you have a rig walk around on what you did to prep the Jeep for towing? I have a 13 jk and it is very not having the trailer back there. Maybe it was just the trailer? (U haul)

@WheresWiseman

5 ай бұрын

Don't have much detail on towing in our walk around but haven't done much. Just added hitch bumper and 7 pin wiring, no issues. Could've definitely been the uhaul trailer! Weight, alignment, bearings etc can effect how it pulls. Max you should pull is 2k lbs. Oh and keep the tongue weight low as well! Under 200ish

@PNWExplorer2

5 ай бұрын

Yeah it wasn’t much going weight. And it was empty but it was shaking the Jeep pretty good. I didn’t think I would feel it as much with it being the 4door. I used to pull a utility trailer with my 97 TJ and it was great. The JK on the other hand. But it was probably the trailer.

Great episode!!! Safe travels

Well, you finally talked us into it. We got a Pop-Up Firepit for Christmas. So we would love to see some more cooking videos on your channel. We bought the grill as well. But are really interested in using it to try some baking. Maybe some biscuits from a can. Anyways, love your channel and was surprised by all the camping videos during the winter. 😊 Keep up the good work!

Nice!! You'll love it! We actually did cinnamon rolls from a can underneath the pit! Worked great! Did you see that video? Will do, thank you 🙂

Hey, do you have any tips or tricks to keeping the awning down when it’s windy? We were near Mojave Desert and our new Hasika awning stakes kept pulling out. They’re probably too small. I’d love to know how you stake it down. Another great video and a killer camp view!😍

@WheresWiseman

5 ай бұрын

Funny you should ask lol, our stakes actually came out! 🤣 However when we a-frame it it sits much better. Probably was all the rocks in the ground at this spot. We typically put them at a severe 90° angle to the line. Works most the time. I think the stakes that screw into the ground would be A+ though 👌🏻

@WheresWiseman

Cool! I’ll have to get some of those screw-in stakes. They look pretty hefty! Having an A frame def looks more sturdy and less likely to pull out. Thanks for the tip!

New subscriber here...forgive me if you've answered this question on the other videos you've made (that I haven't yet watched), but how does towing that trailer affect your gas mileage? I have a JKU and am looking at teardrops. TIA.

@WheresWiseman

5 ай бұрын

Thanks for joining us and no worries!! Our jk has done better than we thought. With the lift and tires, dropped down to 17.5 mpg and with trailer, typically 15.5. thought we'd be way lower. I'll take it! Also, weight definitely matters for our 2 door. Fully packed we're around 1800 lbs, would never go any higher like we did with a t@b we rented. You definitely have some more room with the jku but try to keep your weight 👇🏻 👍🏻

P.S. does the pop up fire pit company offer replacement parts?
