We visited Hurricane Ridge, the Hoh Rainforest, Rialto Beach, Second Beach, and La Push. What an incredible area to explore. Hope this video helps inspire you and helps you plan your trip!

Just 15 minutes south of Bellingham is Washington’s very first state park - Larrabee State Park. Located on Chuckanut Mountain, It’s known for postcard views of Samish Bay and the San Juan Islands. There is plenty to do here from diving, to shellfish harvesting, exploring tide pools, hiking, biking, even rock climbing.

Thanks for watching!

Oregon State

Welcome to Oregon's Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood. Home to insane waterfalls, amazing rocks, and so much outdoor recreation.

Tamanawas Falls is quite possibly the most gorgeous waterfall I've ever seen! And French's Dome is such a unique place to climb. Hope we can return to Oregon someday!

Thanks for watching!

After a fun whale watching experience in the San Juan Islands, we made it up to Bellingham Washington and took a trip over to Nooksak Falls and Artist Point in the Mt. Baker National Forest. Some of my favorite drone footage from Washington.

Thanks for watching! 

VISIT MT. BAKER! Day Trip - Bellingham - Nooksak Falls - Artist Point. BEAUTIFUL DRONE FOOTAGE!

From Anacortes Island within the San Juan Islands, we enjoyed a Whale Watching Tour with Island Adventures on August 25th, 2021. Get ready for great views, a well-rounded tour, and hopefully plenty of wildlife. 

Keep in mind that especially on the boat, it gets pretty cold and you will want multiple layers and possibly gloves. 

Thanks for watching!

WE SAW KILLER WHALES! Washington Whale Watching With ISLAND ADVENTURES In The San Juan Islands

Jenna & I spent over 2 months in Washington State and Mount Rainier National Park was a HUGE highlight. We visited 3 different times with various friends and family that came out to visit and would gladly spend a lot more time there! 

Hopefully this video is helpful if you’re considering planning a trip to Mount Rainier. The Paradise area is probably the most popular in the park and for good reason. The Skyline Trail would be at the top of my recommendations list if I had to pick just one trail.

It’s worth mentioning that Summertime gets quite busy here. We visited in early October and it was amazing. 

Thanks for watching!

POV ROCK CLIMBING EXPERIENCE | Olallie State Park, Washington

Moab, UT

Am I really telling you NOT to visit Arches National Park? No. The purpose of this video is to open your eyes to all of the other amazing places to explore in and around Moab, Utah. Arches National Park sees over 1.5 million visitors annually and can get pretty crowded. Get out and see some of the lesser known areas and avoid those crowds while still experiencing some incredible places. Here are the 10 in this video:

1. Colorado National Monument
2. Fisher Towers
3. UTV Tour
4. Mountain Biking
5. Mill Creek
6. Corona & Bowtie Arch
7. Gold Bar Campground
8. State Route 279
9. Wall Street Climbing Area
10. Dead Horse Point State Park

You can still go to Arches, but try to be strategic about when you go! We couldn’t resist a sunset hike to Delicate Arch. This was around the end of May and in the RV, we almost did not get a spot. Like most places, going early in the morning is the best and this was especially true for Dead Horse

Salt Lake City, UT

We visited them in 2019 and had a blast on the island. Time to switch it up and have them come live the RV life for a bit and see some incredible parts of the USA!

The primary destinations in this trip are Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park for their incredible scenery and exciting wildlife. What an incredible trip!

Thanks for watching!

Seattle, WA

On July 28th, 2021, we visited Glacier National Park, Montana for 24 hours. The plan was to stick around for like a week, but due to some work constraints and weather, we decided to quickly head west towards Seattle, Washington after our short visit.

Our Grizzly Bear experience near Apikuni Fall Trailhead was awesome and we saw a few Black Bears near the Iceberg Lake Trailhead!

6 PLACES YOU MAY NOT HAVE HEARD OF IN MONTANA (Not in Glacier National Park) Drone Footage

In July 2021, my dad flew out to Salt Lake City, Utah for some fun, father-son adventures in the RV! We went hiking at Mt Timpanogos, downhill mountain biking at Deer Valley Resort, and rock climbing at Echo Canyon. 

Very fun to share the RV life with my dad and to share some amazing experiences! You can tell where part of my sense of adventure comes from. 

Thanks for watching! 

4 DAYS OF ADVENTURE WITHIN 1 HOUR OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH | Hiking, Biking, & Rock Climbing With Dad

Nevada State

Great Basin National Park is located in Nevada far away from almost everything. It sees only about 90,000 annual visitors. The elevation change is epic and the snowy mountains are a nice contrast to the barren desert landscape that makes up much of this region. 

We hiked the Alpine Lakes Loop Trail. 2.7 miles and an easy hike.
I also hiked the Bristlecone Pine Glacier Trail. 4.6 miles with some cool ancient trees and beautiful views at the base of some epic rocks and high peaks. 

Thanks for watching! 

BET YOU'VE NEVER BEEN TO THIS NATIONAL PARK! It's in Nevada and it's Great. 

Utah State

These videos are from June 2020 when we lived  outside of Capitol Reef National Park for a week! We found an incredible spot to boondock, flew the drone, hiked in the park, and I took an epic 20+ mile bike ride from the Boulder Mountains down into the National Park. What a life.

Thanks for watching!
