ABOUT US

Welcome to Grand Adventure, a YouTube channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, always filmed in stunning 4K.

We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around North America. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time.

We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!

It's an amazing area of the country that I am blessed to live in.

[triciaann]

I grew up in New Hampshire and as we were little our family would go camping here oh I so miss the beauty of nh

[justsaynrush]

Wife and I have lived quite a few places. Most recently Maine and now Idaho. Have been over Most of the country and one thing for sure, we are blessed in this beautiful country we live in. I've been to all the lower 48 and haven't seen any that didn't have places that simply amaze the soul.

[AmericaBound]

The state is so beautiful they kank, the flume and lost river, but I’m biased. I was born here and lived here my whole life. The thing I love most about the state is it’s people!!

[Joseph-pok]

AWSOME camera work and picking out the music which compliments the videos you make. Not everybody has this talent. New Hampshire is my go to happy place! God bless.

[gorrdd]

Wow... that level of bucolic could make someone a bucaholic! 🤣🙄

This is a really gorgeous place to visit. It deserved another week because of the weather. But reservations must be met...

And that hike up the Flume mountain gorge with live water was really fabulous. Just stunning, regardless of the price.

I also liked the other hike up Artists Bluff and Bald Mountain.

Thanks for taking us along through all your hard work, Marc.

Great video, we have a trip planned there next month ... can't wait!

[lostweekendscaravan]

Hi Marc. You have just brought back many happy memories of NH. My Dad lived there for many years. North Conway and the surrounding areas was his and our favourite places to visit. He loved driving the Kanc. Sadly Dad is no longer with us but the memories never fade. Many Thanks Phil & Juliet UK.🙂👍

[bromadiclifeadventures]

Another great video. Your narrations are always EXCELLENT!

[suzannesnuggs]

Glad you got to see the flume. We visited during a torrential rain storm and the gorge was spectacular and a little scary with high water flow.

[laughingram]

I didn’t see the “notch” in your video; did I miss it. I remember seeing it when I was there back in the ‘80’s.
Sorry to hear about the Old Man in the Mountain.

The Flume and the water falls were very pretty scenes; enjoyed that!

Thanks,
Ram

I was waiting for the shots of mount washington hotel. I have some beautiful pic summer winter and especially fall. Living out west now, just goes to show the spoils of this beautiful contenent

[najruqwi]

So sorry I missed your live stream but I am watching it now 👍

[leighmcqueeney]

How can we keep missing each other Marc? We were in NH 2 weeks ago. So beautiful. Greetings from Valladolid Spain. The two Tasmanians.

[denisplante]

Always love seeing my home state….even from AZ

[winewhiskeytravelers]

If you are in the Wolfeboro area before Saturday, we can give you a boat ride on Lake Winnipesaukee in our wooden boat. We have been watching your show for years and you are right around the corner from us.

[GlennParkins]

Cool video! I have visited this area many times.

[moore__explore]

We spent 5 1/2 months in the summer of 2022 volunteering for the NFS in the Whites. One of our favorite places, and we still learned a couple things from ya! Awesome video! The Flume Gorge is incredible but if it's too pricy or too crowded, Sabaday Falls on the Kancgamangus Hwy between the pass and Conway is the same geologically and free. You would need an interagency pass or a WMNF pass for parking. The hiking in the Whites is world class. Did you have the maple ice cream at your campground? OMG!! yum!

[satajet]

This area was always our weekend get away from tourist trap Cape Cod. We always pulled our camper to Lost River Valley Camp ground. Thank you for this video.

[kurtschulmeyer]

While I'm still partial to here outwest. mountains are mountains and forests are forests. Love the waterfall.
