It’s so awesome to see people exploring my back yard. Christmas tradition for us to head down to masons bay in Esperance

Hope there a YBS or shorehawk colab coming up soon along the WA coastline hike ! Keep it up Matty !

Wow, simply....wow. Beautiful.

Bloody oath mate just made my Sunday! 👌🏼

Awesome episode Dude. Thanks for the content. See you next week. Safe travels.

Great Video, love watching the adventures

Bloody awesome Ep Matt well done. Luv the Ep’s when they are in this format, no need to have flashy editing all the time. Well done mate 👍.

Another awesome video mate, keep it up! Loving the series! 🤙🏼

I loved this episode. We have some incredible scenery in this country and I can't wait to explore it all!

Best channel getting around! So stoked on these episodes

Love the video's mate. I'm building my new ute so i can travel this great country we live in. Can't wait for the next video.

I lived in Kalgoorlie for 20 years and always went down there at every opportunity. Been in Perth for 7 years now still getting out but this video had me feeling very nostalgic. I'll have to get back one day

Good episode. Loved the beach at the end

One of your best , Just made my Sunday ,

Stunning Scotty!

These episodes are just too good. Thanks Matt.

Great photos and drone shots. Looks so good. Really enjoyed the episode.

Love it down there. Can't wait to explore it again and more than I already have. \m/ \m/

Great video as normal Matt. Cheers mate.

Nice mate!

Great video again mate 👍🏽

Keep up these solo adventures Matty they’re great and trips just in the cruiser

Coconut oil is your friend, you definitely need your better half back with ya before you make a 21 century mistake (don’t worry, I remember making the same mistake before meeting my missus) Totally on board with your change to reduce the use of plastic- legend for doing your bit to keep Australia beautiful 🤩 Cheers SB

Fish wrap moss style, yeah boy. Another great episode Matt.

Man you are in a awesome country.. all that open area to explore ... love the vlogs..

Awesome video mate well done 👍

Awesome again mate, done well to film all that so professionally on your own. Those beaches a epic 🤙

Pearler of a episode bud, keen for the next

Awesome video, wait til you see the rest of WA 😅😅

Just a thought on corrugations, possibly already mentioned below... Your probably know this, but likely worth mentioning for your less experienced followers that the best action is to lower tyre pressures. which 1) allows the tyres to act as large shock-absorbers, reducing wear on suspension components and markedly softening ride, and 2) helps to maintain tyre-contact with the ground giving better traction and control at speed. Good video dude...

Epic trip, sick vlog 🤟🏾 cheers from Siberia 🤙🏾

You think those mini sand castle things are cool, head up to cervantes once your past perth, awesome place.

Lower your tyre pressures on corrugations it helps

Here in Canada we call a road like that washboarded and yeah it rattles the shit out of your vehicle.

Good footage mate. Let your tyres down to 18 PSI on those corrugations. You will notice a huge difference

Mate another ripper of an episode! Can't wait to explore WA myself what a stunning part of the world. Did yas announce the winner for the Maxtrax giveaway yet?

Hi Matt, love your channel you inspired us to by a Vision also. It's on order now have to wait. I was wonder what you think of the composting toilet we are not sure which way to go, tossing up between composting or chemical. Any advice you could give would be appreciated.

Hey team that’s epic!! I’m a big fan to be honest might be harder if you had kids but other wise love it so much easier and more sustainable than the chemical toilet

You haven’t come up the coast yet! If you think that’s good!

Awesome! You seriously need a dog though!

Awesome video - this may be my new favorite Australian KZread channel - LOADS of travel vids! Those sand castles look like some sort of insect casts! Some insects use excretions to stabilize the sand grains - erosion of the foredune would expose them. But I’m a biologist in the US, so I could be blowing smoke. Ask a local biologist about them. I’d be curious to hear how they are formed.

My guess is lime in the sand and the rain dribbles down with lime and slightly solidifies. I don't know but I've seen these all around the South West of WA and there is a lot of limestone formations here.

@@Malc664 that’s a good hypothesis! Dissolved CaCO3 would follow bio-channels (plant or animal) and glom onto fines and organics left behind when the organisms die. These would calcify in situ, creating those structures. As the dune eroded, they were exposed.

Agree Darcy, haven't driven a whole lot on corrugations but I find the softer the tyre the better, seems to me that driving reasonably fast with 40psi just makes the road worse. And look where you are, there's no rush to leave that place.
