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, nearly always filmed in stunning 4K.
We’re based in Salt Lake City, Utah, and invite you to come along as we travel all around the western U.S. My wife Patricia and I, and our dogs Zoe and Maggie are avid boondockers, so you’ll seldom find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds. Instead, we’re usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. And unlike most other RV channels on YouTube, we’re not RV dealers or full-timers — we’re weekend warriors just like you!
We’ll provide tips and insight on equipping and maintaining your RV, trip planning and travel videos 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!

Great informational video. This is my first time seeing your videos and became a instant fan
New subscriber here and thrilled to find your channel! Wonderful list that will add a lot of new locations to our travels. Excellent photography and scenic choices!
Hey Mark,
Your videos are such a treat and well done. Thank you! I recently moved to Cottonwood Heights, I’ll keep my eye out for you. Hopefully @ Alta or maybe camping down in the desert. Cheers!
Thanks for your informative Top RV categories. I liked that you defined many categories so depending on your interest you can find what you are looking for.
NO DOGS ON BEACH
Very well done, I need to watch it again!
Excellent review! Thanks
You only have 4,500 subscribers? Wow I’m shocked, you have one of if not the best RV YT channels. Your videos are great, detailed and editing is absolutely wonderful. You are also thourough in discribing the area you are in. I really hope your channel grows with more viewers, keep bringing us great videos, thanks for allowing us all into your travels.
Richard
Good stuff! Subscribed.
The secret is out! Thanks for sharing.
My wife and I saw your piece about Flaming Gorge and the Jug hollow area. That peninsula is right up our alley. We plan on visiting in mid June and would like your input. At that time of the year, will we have difficulty finding free camping with water access. We kayak and want to enjoy the water. In your experience, what will our chances be of finding sites with water access. We have a class A but I’m not timid about getting out there. I would appreciate your assessment of how crowded we can expect it to be. Thanks.
Great video
Best RV sites
You had quite a summer! Category 11: Best place for dogs 🙂
I have to add another thank you for an excellent channel.
Not a lot of blabber, I really like that!
Really love your channel. Your content is great. As a fellow YouTube creator your videos inspire my wife and I to get out and explore.
Hello, awesome presentation. We have a bumper pull a bit smaller than yours at 20ft. We were thinking of getting a 32 ft fifth wheel, but concerned about getting into some of these great places by being to big and getting stuck, restricted, etc. Is there an ideal rig? A quick opinion would be appreciated from a real traveler the way we would like travel. Thanks
This is my favorite RV channel now. Everything I want to know and nothing I don’t. Thanks!
Wow! My wife, Christina McMillan, turned me on to your channel! All of these are places we’d love to visit. We just had our first BLM experience in New Mexico and plan to be in the state for another month, especially if we can snag that Rio Grande del Norte Nat’l Monument site!! Taos has been on our must see list, so this would just make it 10x better! Looking forward to watching your videos. Very informative channel. Thank you!
Great job Marc, you have so much useful information compared to most RV channels, thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Nothing East of Colorado and only 12 states so not a lot to compare
What did you do with your pups at the national parks?
Getting-our new trailer ready to hit the road this summer
Thank for all the information 😉
Enjoyed your format. Jenny lake beautiful.
You sir put out one hell of a product👍🏻
Hey I know that KOA, they were real sweet about hooking me up with a place on the Silt for my pup to play, and the local dispensary is high quality. Recommended. I am embarrassed at how much I love a good KOA lol.
Thanks for summarizing your adventures. It looks like you know how to explore and have fun! Looks like you double your subscribers in 2 months?
Wow! You have been to some amazing places! These are all now “must-see’s” for us! INCREDIBLE and informative video!! Loving this channel!
Thank you 😊 your channel . It’s very informative. We can plan our trip 😊.
yeah ,,stay the F outtta Kalifornia for you happyness
I will be moving to Az. Shortly and I was wondering if the RV flea market in Quartsite is open year round or just certain times of the year? Thank you.
Nothing like The Hoh Rain Forest Tied for my best camp.
Thank you for the great information! Excellent delivery and useable information!
Hi Mark, We have just discovered your channel and are fans. Already told our family to follow you too. We want to compliment you on your presentation. It really is excellent. Lots of information and amazing photography. Many bloggers it’s all talk and seeing them and not a lot of scenery. You have a great ratio. Thank you from Down Under. (Australia 🙂
I love Utah. This is my second time stationed here at Hill AFB. I love that any kind of camping I want to do is right out my back door.
So far I like these folks !!
Right to the point
Hey Arizona
Lot’s of good info, thanks.
Great video. Appreciate that you are to the point. No rambling
Mark, one more question I noticed that you do a lot of Boondocking and wonder if you ever worry about your camper being stolen when you go away exploring for the day, given these remote and isolated areas. My wife and I are doing our first ever RV road trip across the country starting in June and we have wondered about this possibility when dry camping in remote ares.
You have one of the best RV travel channels on YouTube. I’d like to know how you find the dispersed camping spots you go to. Also, do you have any plans on touring the Great Lakes region?
I’m so glad I found your channel – truly enjoying all your videos
Great video. Thank you for the information.
you must have to be rich to Camp you all year round is it cost a lot of money
Great video
I’ll be rving this summer for 4 1/2 months how do you feel about thousand trails? Is it worth it for 4 1/2 months?
I’m hoping to get into rving in the next couple years so I’ve been checking out videos for tips and stuff. I am so happy to have stumbled on your channel! Your videos are fantastic and your on screen personality is straight forward and non threatening. I have thoroughly enjoyed every video i have watched. An technically your video productions are second to none. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with the rest of us.
