What do these ancient markings mean? [S7E8]
Caroline and I head into the Utah wilderness riding our trusty steed, Silver while towing the new Xpedition Voyager trailer. After sharing some "real life" parts of our journey, we discover enigmatic markings on these red canyons walls while traversing the trails in search for the perfect camping spot.
We put our sleep-inside trailer to the test while sheltering from the frigid weather and took our chance to try cooking in the warm space, cozy space while the wind whipped outside. We even experiment with making popcorn with a backpacking stove!
Our peaceful adventure becomes a nail biter as the trail conditions degrade and sugar snow begins to slow our progress. But most importantly, we get to reconnect as father and daughter in the heart of beautiful Utah while reminiscing on Caroline's unique childhood journey.

Hey folks, thanks for all the well wishes and prayers while we've been fighting off this illness! Here's what I've been working on... enjoy!
Hope you get to feeling better quickly. It sucks to be out of commission with a cold or flu.
Hello. Love your content. We are travelling in our 4x4 ambulance build. Just finished baja. And in Arizona now. Would love to do an adventure with you guys. 🍻
Every daughter needs a dad like you Kevin! It's amazing how much Caroline looks like Sarah more and more in every video. She will remember these trips forever.
It blows me away watching Caroline grow up before all our eyes. Same goes with other channels like your friends at the Epic Family!
She's going to have a cool legacy to look back at one day with her kids!
I remember when I found your channel Caroline was probably 4 years old, how time flies
Love the Ender’s Game cameo!! My favorite Sci-Fi book!
Thanks for sharing , Caroline has become a pretty young lady . You are a great dad as well . We love watching your videos .
Miss Caroline has really grown up since I met her in CO. Beautiful young lady you have!
Thank you!
How every family should spend time. Loving the videos
Good dad and good kid. As a fellow girl dad (11, 8, and 5) I’m having fun getting my girls out in the mountains. It’s not always easy but it’s worth it!
You've got a handful there! Always worth it though 🙌
Think this has been my favorite one of your videos too date. great parents are the best hope this world has, thanks.
Speaking from experience, be mindful when cooking aromatic and fatty foods or with grease inside a small space. The fats and grease become airborne and coats more surfaces than you can keep clean. The aroma from foods will require more frequent cleaning of fabrics such as bedding covers, sleeping bags and upholstery. So happy to see you having quality time with your daughter. Thanks for sharing.
Great to see the daughter again; excellent 🤩😎⭐️
She's grown so much....I can't believe how much she's grown since I have been watching your videos for so long...
Love your channel. As a single dad, this episode brought back so many memories. I raised my oldest daughter and we would camp a lot in Northern Arizona. And I would have her sister here in the summers. And we would go camping, but never with both my girls at the same time, My oldest would visit their mother and my youngest would come visit me in the summers. Eventually I was able to have my baby girl live with me full time and we would all go camping as a family. They are grown now and I so miss those days. Seeing how Caroline has grown and the time you spend together warms my heart and makes me miss those times I had with my girls. Cherish every moment, it ends before you realize it. I love your channel and I've been following you for the last 7 years. Many blessings to you and your family. I look forward to every video post. I can't wait for the next one.
Thanks so much for sharing that with us. Northern AZ is an amazing place to take them. We appreciate you riding along with us for so long too!
Love these father, daughter trips. You guys do reminds me of the ones I did with my daughter. She's living in Switzerland now at 17 working on her nursing degree. But I'll always remember traveling and camping with her. Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it! So amazing to watch them grow up. It won't be long before Caroline is off on her own too!
I wish more than anything that my family of 4 could explore like this
Making memories is what life's about because you keep them with you.
Absolutely. Priceless moments
You’re doing it right! Much respect to you for living your dream and teaching your kids what they should be taught.
I appreciate the encouragement 🙌
You just unlocked our new snack while camping! Popcorn!!!
Went by fast didn't it. Started watching about that time. Silver brought me here, but having a daughter the same age myself, well, that was a plus. It's been a few years now since we've done a Daddy/Daughter trip off of the beaten path. I just planned one. Thanks, we both need to get back into it.
Glad you got the drone back.
That was a close one 👍
Love This!
I’d say cooking indoors was a success! 😃
Absolutely! Probably wouldn't do one of Sarah's 3 course meals in there but it's great for easy stuff!
Just lovely. We should all aspire to this level of family bonding.
Thanks for those kind words!
Beautiful lady I remember when she fell Down in the mud. She grow up very fast, love her 😊💕
That memory was one of the best 😁👍
Well, this is good timing I was just thinking about your online store and goods. As after being stranded and broke at my parents estate for the last 6 1/2 or seven months, trying to clear out the estate go through probate and sell the house. We were having our final free sale to get rid of what was left today and somebody stole my favorite hoodie out of the house. It was the last hoodie I had that I could wear a heavy shirt under, so as soon as we close Probate and I get some cash, I’ll look into one of your bear logo hoodies. I actually lived that life with four stepdaughters, father daughter trips are fun.
Very cool. Took my granddaughter truck camping. Great time. Need to do it more often. Thanks
Such great memories!
Kevin, Caroline not gonna lie that opening footage brought some tears to my eyes but i also have allergies so i'm just not sure lol, of many of your awesome posts this might be one of my favorites yet so far. Geez just how long have I been viewing your channel time has just whizzed by and the meals i mean c'mon cup'O'noodles yes i checked my pantry but no go lol. Thanks for Sharing...
Glad you enjoyed that! Might have had some allergies while I was editing it too 😁
You guys are adorable :P great video and Happy Easter!
My daughter and i go on our special camping trips yearly.. so much fun.. we take our 70# wonder dog with us.. high energy AussieDoodle.. Adventure awaits.. Thanks for sharing
That is awesome! So much fun
I grew up doing a lot of camping in tents and in the open air with sleeping bags so in 2017 when I decided to go full-time Overland I bought a teardrop trailer and now I’m on my third small camper trailer. And even though this trailer was not as advertised and it does have its issues, it’s very comfortable sleeping inside, even more comfortable than sleeping in the back of the well insulated jeep grand Cherokee.
They really bring the comforts of home to the trail. Roughing it is fine for a weekend here and there, but long term travel needs some good sleep. Sorry you're having issues with your trailer.
it was so cool I got to meet u in green river at the truck stop I was heading to New Mexico to see my mom when we met there hows that Ankle doing sitting here right now watching ur new video hope one day u come up in idaho up my way show u some country up here
Excellent segment Kevin. Seen those picture graph and petroglyphs high on the walls. My guess is they were done when the ground was that high which makes them much older than most realize. Hope everyone is off the bug you all had. Take care and be safe out there. (PS Trifield meter might show you why your drone lost connection e canyon)
beautiful video
Thank you!
That's awesome !
You have a blessed family ❤
We certainly do! Thank you!
Yay, snow 😊
Always fun!
Très belle vidéo, merci, à bientôt 🙂 .
Thank you!
In the beginning, I thought you were about to say "...as we're headed out on a father-daughter adventure to explore one of our favorite areas in Utah--the grocery store" 😅😂
I was thinking the same thing LOL
Never know what you might find 🤣
❤❤❤❤❤
Good morning from indonesia👋
Morning!
Haha looking forward to doing the same with our granddaughter. Mate, fairdinkum you need a haircut lol
I'm sure she will love it!
I think I’ve been there:.
My Caroline turned 14 Wednesday. They grow up way too fast.
They certainly do!
"You stepped in deer poo".. (Forest Gump moment)
👍
Can we get a maintenance episode?
I like a good size chunk of cheese, on the side, with my Ramen. And, where's dessert?
Popcorn is our go-to desert!
Beautiful area and a great video… And I’m not here to judge, but I am part 107 certified, and you can’t “lose“ a drone if you’re following all the rules. :-) so many overlanders seem to push the limits… It’s pretty obvious to me that so many are bending the rules a fair bit. Glad you were able to recover without incident!
You can when it's a fly away situation. We saw it leaving for "home" but couldn't return it. Part 107 certified here too. We "lost" it when it went backwards and I had to turn around to chase it down. It was hovering over home.
Carrying and disposing potty bags is the only downside to anything.. 😖
Don't worry, I bet Mom doesn't watch these!!
Shhhh 🤫 🤣
