You wouldn t BELIEVE how beautiful these FREE campsites in Montana are

I can't believe I got that on film. Sure is a beautiful road. I'm not sure how far I'm going to have to back up, but so sketchy. Time to do some sketchy. Well, ladies and gentlemen, I decided to just hit the road and I only had one destination in mind. I really wanted to show you something absolutely magnificent, so check it out. Where'd you go? There you are. All right, folks. Now, just behind me, actually in front of me, technically, is what I believe the world's largest hill. Look at it. Do you see that thing? That's a big hill. Now, you might be asking yourself, isn't it just a small mountain? No, no, it's not. If you actually look on the GPS that I'm about to show you right here, that there is a hill and it is the most impressive hill I think I've ever seen in my entire life. I'm gonna go run up it really quick. Okay, I'm not gonna run up it. Now, I'm actually making my way north right now again, basically on the same route as I took my parents because I just got bored and I decided to come up, back up to Northwest Montana here. That's why I'm up here and also it's absolutely beautiful and I don't wanna miss it for the world. So anyway, I'll let the dog out really quick to let her go to the bathroom and then we'll be back on the road. Now, the parabolic lens on this thing or whatever you wanna call it from only a couple hundred yards away doesn't really give you an idea of just how massive this hill is. It's so, I don't know, it's just such an interesting thing to see where the road just goes right up to such a large hill. Cool stuff. All right, it might not be the world's largest hill technically but I'd like to consider it as the world's largest. I'll put it in the hat. Does anybody know any other hills that are technically labeled a hill and they're over a thousand vertical tall? Let me know. Anybody else get the anxiety whenever they're driving behind a logging truck because of that one 90s movie? Just gotta keep a close eye out is all. Real close eye out. All righty, folks. Looks like we're, oh God, oh! Looks like we're on our way. The road has gotten rough so that's a good sign. I was looking at my GPS about an hour ago and saw a lake that's up in the woods kind of close to where I was camping last night. So, and also it's in the general direction of where I gotta go. Fingers crossed it is, well, hopefully it's not packed because technically it is a free campsite that has pit toilets, which is super convenient. But because there's pit toilets, that means that there's a better chance or there's a higher probability that this spot will be occupied. I guess we'll find out here soon. Look at the flowers. Zeta, do you see the flowers? Do you see them? Do you see the flowers, Zeta poops? Don't they smell? Oh, it smells so good out here. Mm, uh-oh, it's getting real now. We've got ourselves some hailstones. Where is that large snow? I'm not really sure. I don't know. A lot of these forest service roads here in Montana, the mud up here is just as greasy as it can possibly get. I'm talking greasy, greasy. Kind of stinks, you know, I've pretty much been just stuck inside of my camper for I think it's been pretty much three or four days now. What are you doing there? Dang thing. But that being said, I think I've mentioned it before, the weather is supposed to get really, really nice. Not tomorrow, but the next day. It's supposed to be just absolutely beautiful. Highs in the mid 70s. So I think I can handle another couple days of spring weather. Well, as expected, it's pretty dang busy down here. Now there's only six spots available in this campground and there's two left. This one's kind of like right near the entrance, but it gives me the most amount of distance between my next door neighbor, which is right over there. The other option would be a family with a bunch of dogs way over there. They seem like nice dogs, but I'd rather not cause any trouble. So let's take a look. Oh my lanta, beautiful. Oh, somebody left some firewood, but everything is looking quite soaked right now. So I don't think there's gonna be a fire tonight. Sorry, folks. It's pretty awesome. I can't believe I got that on film. Well, good morning. It was a pretty dang nice night here last night. It seems like everybody was quite respectful of the usage of their generators and shut off the generators around probably 10 o'clock last night and didn't start them up again until around seven o'clock this morning. So I'm glad that people are conscientious of the fact that those things make a lot of noise, at least the ones that they're using. I don't really know what I have planned for today. I know that I'm gonna be making my way up to Whitefish and I have a couple of friends up there that I wanted to see, but then after that, I think we'll make our way north and I don't know, stay up there somewhere. There's so much stuff that I wanted to do when we pass through there, my parents and me. So I think this go around. I'm gonna slow down a little bit and see if we can't find some amazing stuff while we're up there. So let's hit it. Well, good morning. It's another beautiful albeit wet day here in Montana. And yeah, we're making our way north. I better turn that off. Otherwise I'll get copyright infraction. Coming up here on the right in the tiny town of Echo Lake. I'm not sure if it's gonna be open or not, but if it is, I am definitely gonna pull in because this place called Echo Lake Cafe, it is so good. And it looks like it's open. So I am definitely gonna grab a bite to eat because I haven't eaten anything today. I is hungry. I probably shouldn't be eating here because I'm on a very, very tight budget, but sometimes you just gotta indulge a little bit, you know? Yes, Zeta, you're not going anywhere. Sorry, girl, you gotta stay in here. Mm-hmm. Sorry. Let's get some delicious breakfast. Well, that was delicious. I feel reinvigorated. Anyway, let's get back on the road. This song is actually one of my favorite songs ever. See if you can figure out who it is. Row, row, row, row, row, row, row, row, row, row, row, row. How can you think that I'm actually calling you right now, turkey? Row, row, row, row. She's like, what the hell is going on over here? That don't look like no turkey. I have officially confused the turkey. She is just looking at me like, what, what is going on? Who is that? That sure don't look like no normal turkey. What do you think, girl? Well, there might have been a bit of things that I've transpired since I last turned on my camera here. I was just trying to find a good camp spot for the night. I am driving down a particularly sketchy shelf road, and I was told this was open, but it is very much not open. Now I get to back up a shelf road that was already sketchy coming down, going forwards. Now I get to go backwards, back up the shelf road. So this should be fun. It's pretty though. Just don't go down there. That's the only thing that I have to do is just don't go down there. Piece of cake, right? I'm not sure how far I'm going to have to back up, but it's a long ways. I think probably a mile, maybe even a mile and a half I have to go backwards up the shelf road. This'll be fun. So sketchy, time to do some sketchy. Doodah, doodah, hope I get away with it. Oh, the doodah day. Oh my gosh. All right. I better pay attention to the road for a little bit here and focus on the road. So I'll check back with you in a little bit. Well, that was fun. Yeah. I had a guy in a Ram come down from above. So I was going to film going back up, but then that happened. So I had to stop and then I told him that I wouldn't advise driving through that with your Ram Cummins, because yeah, it's actually deeper than I thought it was. The way that I know that is, there were some side-by-side guys that were going up. So right when I decided to start filming again, those guys came up. So I had to stop filming and get on the road. Hey, look, snow. Oh, look, frost. I should have taken a hint by this right here. But yeah, they told me that there was like five feet of snow down there. So I'm glad I didn't even bother trying because I would have, I'm sure I would have just sunk right to the bottom and then that would be my new home for the foreseeable future. So anyway, I guess we're going to head back this way and set up camp here in a bit. Sure is a beautiful road, isn't it? Just a little hairy, but it's not too bad. B-E-A-utiful, folks. Beautiful. Very, very beautiful. Zeta thinks so, too. Don't you, Zeta poops? Well, I guess we're going to have to call this place home tonight. It's not a bad site, but I am right next to the road. But also, fortunately, there's not a whole lot of traffic today, surprisingly. Come on out. Brrr. Bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz. Zeta poops. Hey. Boop. Oh, you booped yourself. Oh, my stars. Holy malanta. You know what I think we need to do right now? I think we need to do a windage check. Just need to break out my windometer. All right, that, so that's pretty, anyway, pretty windy. We got runaway parents right now. They're at 19.9 thousand subscribers. They are one subscriber away from hitting 20,000. And I got Mike, who's texting me, because I know he's watching every second of it, waiting for that 20,000 mark. The second he texts me, that he hit 20,000, I'm going to unsubscribe. Sorry, Mike and Dwight. I'll re-subscribe right away. I promise. Oh, look at that stick. Good girl. Oh, yeah. Get that stick. Good girl. Yeah. Get that stick. Woof. Yeah. Woof, woof. Woof, woof, woof, woof. All right, so Zeta's chair is too small for her. Come on up. Come on. It looks very uncomfortable. All she can do is sit in it. poor girl. It's so small. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry, Zeta-boops. But, I have figured out how to make it work. So, it's leaning against my chair, and she seems to enjoy it a lot more. Look at you, little Zeta-boops. Zeta-boops. Hello. Oh, hello. That's a good chair, isn't it? Is that a good chair? Yeah. You like it, don't you? Man, I'll tell you what. There has been some serious windstorms that have come through here. Look at this. It's like a golden tornado came through here or something. Really got to ride this edge, too. Oh, because of that. Yes, Zeta. Man. Yeah, up there. Holy cow. Well, I got to say, it's been a bit of a struggle for the last few days trying to find a good campsite, but I think, I think I finally found one. Take a look at this. Zeta-boops, are you a happy doggo? It's a good thing you're a swimming dog. Yeah, otherwise I might be concerned. Don't do it. Don't do it, girl. What are you going to do now? You're kind of stuck. Oh, she figured it out. All right. Man, it smells so good here right now. Oh my gosh. It is absolutely beautiful. We've even got ourselves a nice fire pit with some stocked wood. Yeah, firewood. Look at this campsite. And of course, larch trees. Sure wish I had some company out here. It's awfully quiet and, oh, okay, there's my Zetas. I got to stop doing this to myself. Every time I hear a Dan Cummins, I always think it's Kevin Wald. Hold up. No, that's probably some other guy with a third gen regular cab Cummins with an old 10-2000. There's no way that's Kevin Wald. Where's the river? Hi. Oh, I missed you, buddy. I missed you, too. Oh my Atlanta. Look at this. Whoa. It goes all the way to the other side. Wow. Well, folks, I'm not really sure how this video went, but I think it's time to call it on this video because now that Kevin's gotten here and we've had a day of BSing and catching back up since it's been many months since we've last hung out, I think we're actually gonna take off from this campsite. And I have tasked myself with trying to find my Canadian friend a spot that I know of relatively close to this area that can hopefully get close to or possibly even match some of the beautiful spots that he recommended to me while I was up in BC on my previous videos. So I guess that's it for this, this one. So thanks for stopping by and we'll see you on the next one.
