Camping & Searching For BEARS On The Kern River

The Kern River in California is such a beautiful place. Camping and exploring in this area, there were no crowds. I also went on a mission looking for Bears!! Did I find one?

I finally got a bear on MY camera. I’ve seen 4 in 4 years, but never have my camera ready. I Come to Colorado or Northern Arizona every summer and bear are such beautiful, majestic creatures.
My dog and I were outside the van, I was brushing my teeth, my dog taking his morning poop, then he starts barking. I just figured it was a deer, but it was a bear. He was close. Very close. By the time I got my dog in the van and got my camera, he had crossed the road to the trail and I followed alongside the road with my camera in hand. Now I can die happy.
Enjoy your quiet time. I, like you, need my alone time. Colorado is my favorite state but thank you for this video. I have been there before but will definitely head that way again soon.
Hugz and love to you and Little One❤️ Be true to yourself ALWAYS
They stay away from humans for the most part but early in the morning is when you are more likely to see them. Be safe.

My favorite videos you make are like this one, where you go explore someplace new. ❤😊

Always wanted to go up the Kern River, so thanks. Only seen it around Bakersfield and didn't realize what a rocky, whitewater river it was.

I was born and raised in Bakersfield. Spent a lot of time at the Kern River. My now husband and I would go there and just talk for hours when we were dating. We moved out of California in 1996 but have good memories. Camping in the Sequoia mountains and Sierra mountains. Stay safe and out of the water. It's beautiful, but very dangerous. Thanks for sharing!!

I can feel you on a lot that you have said, I myself have lost that peace. And now as I work on moving forward to get that back, it seems like everything gets in the way. I know you will get your peace.

Your time away has done you good; you look much more rested and at peace in today's video.

Regarding putting nature and your well being first, I get it. And when it comes to family / close friends, we have to decide for ourselves where our boundaries lie. Nobody else can do that for us, and most people just won't get involved which can leave us feeling like we're the only one who can do things for them. There are professionals for that role, but there's no guarantee with that either. And some of us are more likely to want to be there for them. It's a very tough decision and deciding to be there leads to more tough decisions throughout that time. Make sure you get time to yourself daily to enjoy nature, meditate, walk on that gorgeous beach, whatever you can do to help yourself as well. Caregiving can be devastating to your psyche and you have the tools to help yourself; make sure you remember to use them. ❣

The Kern River looks amazing! Regarding that salmon idea...uh, no. I've seen pictures of vehicles that bears tore into because they could smell the food inside and it wasn't pretty. You definitely don't want to do that to your Jeep.

I hope you hugged those trees! It does both of you a world of good.

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us, as always.

P. S. Completely off topic but have you ever thought about wrapping / painting everything on your roof white? White reflects light and black absorbs it. The temperature difference in your Jeep would be significant and it would make it far more comfortable for both you and Lil' One. I painted the full-size van I had (hunter green) white and the difference was amazing. Professional paint jobs are expensive but you can DIY it, especially the roof, if need be. They make spray paint for plastic as well, so you could do that to your storage boxes instead. Food for thought.

Oh Sarah this is definitely one of my favorite places you've gone to for your nature therapy!! If this beautiful serene place with it's flowing river and waterfalls doesn't cure and fix the soul.... nothing will. 🥴 My gosh it's a beautiful spectacular place! If I camped there, it would be for several days for sure. I hope that while you were there that you soaked up enough nature to get you through the rough times ahead with your friend? I'm glad you took some time for yourself because you too need to take care of yourself. May you continue to stay strong 💪 for your friend and help him through his issues. God bless you 🙏 for being such a good friend to those who may need your support and help. A million thanks for sharing this video of which has now become one of my favorite places you've gone to!! All the best to you always, and that includes "Lil One." Happy trails Sarah! 👍😎💕
