Overlanding in Moab with Epic Family Road Trip – Living The Van Life

Overlanding in Moab with Epic Family Road Trip – Living The Van Life

Living The Van Life Gear & Swag:

I was out riding my mountain bike on the famous Slick Rock Trail out in Moab when I bumped into a couple guys on motorcycles who happened to have their own YouTube Channel as well. It just so happened that it was the dudes from Epic Family Road Trip – which is a channel that I just so happen to follow. So we connected and decided to go out camping and exploring in the backcountry of Moab and head out to Hurrah Pass and Chicken Corners for a camp & cook session.

    Great content Chad! I’m adding this trail to my to do list.

  2. cory mullins on December 20, 2021 at 1:06 pm

    Wow Chad. By far one of the best vids I’ve watched of yours. So damn dope.

  3. James Brown on December 20, 2021 at 1:07 pm

    Holly shit I watched a 12 min commercial and 3 minutes later I get another commercial and 5 minutes later get another one lmao.
    And the first one was about how people dont want to conceal care because holsters are so uncomfortable, And his holster is different and very comfortable. And this guy is unloading bags out of his truck into a wheelbarrow for 12 minutes with his holster sitting on a tub, and walks away from it a half dozen times to his back yard. And this holster he’s advertising is so uncomfortable he can’t even wear it for the commercial 12 minutes

  22. Troy Louis on December 20, 2021 at 1:38 pm

    What about money? That’s something that I can’t figure out for me right now. I have a job, but not one that allows me freedom to roam. I work at Toyota so I’m tethered to the town I’m currently in

  23. Michael Bigdongovic on December 20, 2021 at 1:39 pm

    Similar to me,I have a Toyota Fortuner,A 4×4 truck and a 1190 adventure bike that me and my family will go camping

  24. Si H on December 20, 2021 at 1:39 pm

    is it just me that misses the westphalia stuck up some mountain in the snow lol

  25. lured_in on December 20, 2021 at 1:41 pm

  26. Donnan Huggler on December 20, 2021 at 1:42 pm

    No seriously where are you getting this music my guy?
    Chad, you’ve turned a few corners and stayed the same but the whole production gets better and better

  27. geri martinez on December 20, 2021 at 1:45 pm

  30. dublsrz on December 20, 2021 at 1:47 pm

  31. marcusallenyt on December 20, 2021 at 1:49 pm

    chad love it all . you need to to have a class on how you do the drone shoot and dive . I have a question . we are building a 170 WB 4×4 with the van compass 6.3 light kit. would I be able to do the route in this video ? I know it easy with a 144WB . I want to see all the places you have traveled . thank you for all you do
