Camping and Exploring the Bizarre, Odd, Curious and Strange in California

Published 2022-05-01
Camping near the Salton Sea, Slab City, Salvation Mountain, East Jesus – what do all these places in California have in common?  They’re bizarre, odd, curious and strange – like something you can’t quite decide is creepy or cute all rolled into one. And while some places we visit might not meet our preconceived expectations, we don’t let it damper our spirits nor enthusiasm – sometimes you just have to create your own adventure if the area you’re in isn’t up to snuff.

  • The Joshua Tree (R.I.P) shot for U2 album was at the west entrance of Death Valley NP. For quirky visit Landers, Ca. has The Integratron, a historical site and energy machine built on a powerful geomagnetic vortex, and Giant Rock. George Van Tassel held popular UFO conventions known as the “Giant Rock Spacecraft Conventions” on his property for over 20 years to help raise money for the Integratron’s construction.
  • @leobrenneis1442
    I always wanted to see the salton sea area! Happy I’m tagging along on this adventure 😁
  • Great video as always! It is funny that Tim Collins and Amanda Zito were also at Joshua Tree recently! Great motovloggers think alike! 😄Good for you for picking up trash - more people need to follow your lead. Congrats to Rich for troubleshooting the water issue. And I love the music choices! Take care, Nancy
  • @fairbanksjp
    If y’all are still floating around Southern AZ, you need to head eastward toward Sierra Vista and explore Bisbee (and the Bisbee Mone tour), Cochise Stronghold, Tombstone, Fairbank (Ghost town), The Battle of the Bulls (SanPedro Fiver basin) and the Kartchner Caverns.
  • Thanks for the SW tour. Enjoy the wide open spaces.Moving around like a couple tumbleweeds haha. Hope the trailer holds up better.
  • @cathyn1033
    Thanks for taking us along. There are some quirky places out there.
  • you guys are in my neck of the woods ,I live about 50 miles west in Yucaipa , have ridden it in many temps from 50 to 95 hope you enjoyed your visit . great show .
  • I enjoy my Sunday evening travel with you guys on YouTube; nice relaxation at the end of the weekend. Thanks & keep on ridin’.
  • Brilliant video so well edited and you guys have a lovely chemistry and ease around each other its a pleasure to watch . Safe travelling 😀👍
  • @mullman
    Randomly ran across y’all and subbed. Great content!
  • @kellymeier579
    Welcome to my back yard. I've lost count of how many times I've ridden these roads. And yes, I do ride in the summer, i just make sure I'm off the bike before temps hit 110'. My buddies and I use these roads for our Sunday morning before-breakfast battery-run rides. It's too bad the International Banana Museum in North Shore has shut down, you'd have gotten a kick out of it. Our favorite breakfast stops are Brownie's in Brawley and the cafe next to the George Patton Tank Museum out in Chiriaco Summit. Picnics at Christmas Circle in Borrego Springs or anywhere in Joshua Tree are awesome too. I really enjoyed this video, thanks. Happy Trails!
  • @eddcurry1245
    Great video. Love y’all’s positive attitudes and sense of adventure
  • @ramonbostic
    I went to the Salton Sea with my mother about 40 years ago and it was looking pretty depressed by then. Businesses were still open, but you felt like it was the beginning of the end.
  • @jefflink4671
    I joined your channel because of motorcycle living on the road “paved roads” and adventure in simple terms of modest tent living. I enjoyed that. Living and traveling with eighteen wheels to the next adventure then unloading bikes and traveling gravel roads is far from the original beginnings of two wheels, big life. Moving on. Hope you can regain your original content. If not enjoy your ride.
  • An other very enjoyable episode guys, trust the trailer will dry out for you and Richard’s fix will prevent further problems with the shower plumbing.
