WEBVTT - Boondocking with Brad: Boondocking 0:00:02.279 --> 0:00:04.720 Hi, I'm Matt and I'm Brad. This is park Landia, 0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.520 a production of I Heart Radio. We saw a loft 0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:10.320 in Chicago, moving to an RV and now we're traveling 0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:12.920 in the country full time with our dogs, been exploring 0:00:12.960 --> 0:00:17.640 American's national parks and today we are bringing out another 0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:26.760 episode of boon Docking with Brad. And today's topic is 0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:30.240 in the name, it is boon docking, So it's about 0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:33.479 our first time boon docking. It's about different like safety 0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:35.920 measures you have to go through when boondocking and different 0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:38.519 things like that, just to help you understand what it's 0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:41.360 kind of like to boon dock. So many you might 0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:45.640 be asking what is boondocking? UM. Boon docking is when 0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:49.560 you're going to be off the grid, UM, not attached 0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.839 to electricity and water for the night. So you have 0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:56.400 to learn how your r V is self sustainable UM 0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:58.760 to do these like one night's two up to a 0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:02.600 week in some places. UM of what's called boon docking. 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.679 So you're not UM, you're not hooked up, you're just 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.400 on the lamb basically, and you have to like fill 0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:11.120 your water reserves and you have to use your generator 0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:13.880 and how it all works and you have to understand 0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:17.400 your electricity flow so you can know to not like 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:20.880 microwave and cook a pot of coffee at the same time. 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.959 There's many places to boon dock across this country, um, 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:29.679 from rest stop areas to Bureau of Land Management areas 0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:34.640 to Wally World and beyond. We've done Wally World many times. 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:39.959 What's Wally World Walmartin? Oh yeah, you've definitely heard me 0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:44.920 Wally World before. But that's a great question to ask. 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:49.640 So with boon docking, there's a lot of different issues 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:55.120 or fears that come about. Um when you're first doing this. Um, 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:58.680 I know when we refers doing this, Matt was asking 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:03.120 questions like are we gonna be uh like, uh, we're 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.320 just gonna be parking here at this rest area for 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.280 the night. Um, we're gonna just be on Wally World 0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:10.840 for the night. Oh, we're gonna be you know, just 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.480 parking on the side of the road for the night. 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:18.880 And it's you know, not logical fears, right, There's definitely questions. 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:23.160 But um, up until this point, have we had any issues. No, 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:27.040 aside from just being called occasionally. I think that's the 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.560 biggest issue. But I would say that's more because of well, 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:34.440 our heater in our r V is on the fritz, 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.440 and we don't want to use a space heater while 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:39.680 the generators running because it puts too much power to 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:43.000 the generator. So sometimes we'll just leave on the engine 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:47.200 in the front half of the chassis of the truck 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.839 r V to stay warm, but then it gets really 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:52.440 hot and so we have to turn it off and 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:53.960 then we'll turn it back on in the morning type 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.440 of situation. But there's a lot of different things that 0:02:56.880 --> 0:03:00.239 you have to deal with when owning an r V 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:04.120 and uh getting them fixed and finding the time to 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:06.079 get them fixed, because sometimes you're just on the run 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:10.040 and going all the time and just traveling so much. 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.200 So when dry camping, there's definitely a lot of questions 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:21.400 that come about, um, are there gonna be a lot 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.839 of like wild animals and bears and things like that, 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:26.600 And even on the Bureau of Land Management where they 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:31.560 allow boondocking, you're not gonna have um too much wildlife 0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:35.240 or too much fear of that because um it's normally 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:37.960 in a part of the land where it's not like 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.360 covered in forest. It's not like you're gonna be driving 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:43.240 twenty minutes into the woods. Um, you're gonna be on 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:46.040 the outskirts and where there's not a lot of things, 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.800 but you still have to be bear aware and you 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.080 have to put away your foods and things like that. 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:52.920 You don't want to leave them. I'll leave them out 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:58.320 all night for animals to to get them. UM. A 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:00.360 lot of people have the other question, can you leave 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:05.600 your rig um certain situations yes, other situations no. UM. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.400 I would not leave your rig in a truck stop, 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:12.280 but that's kind of obvious, right for many reasons, just 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:15.040 a lot of people coming in and out, and you're 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.880 not supposed to stay in truck stops more than sometimes 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:22.280 four hours, sometimes six, sometimes twelve. It just depends on 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:24.680 that state. So you actually have to look it up 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:29.320 as you're traveling. So boon docking is it's pretty um 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:31.800 simple in the fact of set up, but there's a 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:36.720 lot of technicalities behind it to really find the right places. UM. 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.240 There's great resources out there like free roam, which is 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.480 an app that will help you find it. Then there's 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:46.800 like campadem um, and then another one is uh the 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:51.520 Bureau of Land Management BLM offices, ranger stations, and then 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:54.120 even word of mouth. UM. But they're going to tell 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.800 you where, when, and how. A lot of these apps 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.440 have even cell phone strength signal to um what the 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.600 local areas like. So it's actually there's some great resources 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:06.280 out there to help you find those places when you 0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:18.080 are looking for um boondocking opportunities. There's always this thing 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:20.240 where Matt and I are together and we have fins. 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:23.560 We're not alone. Boon docking alone is definitely a different 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:27.280 experience UM, and there's some different fears. I mean, even 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.719 the times where I was out there and Matt was 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:34.679 on a trip back home to Chicago or um somewhere else, uh, 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.920 A boon docking by myself was totally different. UM. I 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.520 didn't want to turn on the lights. I didn't have 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:45.760 like a safety and numbers type of feel, and so 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.360 I just kind of stayed in the dark and just 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:52.320 like like jumped on my tablet and watched the movies. 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.840 And I did not make it a home. So it's 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.400 kind of weird, but I, you know, these were irrational 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:01.560 fears that I had, and now, UM, I don't have 0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:05.320 those same exact fears. But in the beginning, when we 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.080 were just getting started and it was the first time 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:10.880 by myself, like you know, everyone can have that fear 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:14.640 of just like where they're boondocking and you know, not 0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:18.159 wanting to have conversations with people, but most people won't 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:22.080 bother you. If you're boon docking for long term, there's 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:24.120 some things that you definitely have to check. You want 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:27.360 to make sure that you're propane is full, UM, your 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:31.800 batteries are charged, and refrigerator works while um not attached 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.120 to power. But when we get into boondocking for a 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:36.960 long time, there's some things that you want to know. 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.120 Is like you're even if you're on like beer of 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:44.200 land management land or your boon docking and a rest station, 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:46.320 a lot of times you're not allowed to use your 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:50.120 generators at night. Uh, there are still quiet hours per 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:53.479 se um and that's so you don't disturb the wildlife 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:55.799 at night. It's also so you don't disturb your neighbors, 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:58.400 you don't cause any issues. So you have to really 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:02.360 understand what you're getting into. You're going to set up 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.240 your r V almost similarly to when we were talking 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:10.160 about hooking up the r V, but basically the first 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:11.680 thing you're gonna do is you're gonna go over to 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:13.880 your A C unit and make sure that your a 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.680 C is off, your heat is off, because that creates 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:19.200 a big surge when you start your generator. And what 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.520 we're talking about right now starting a generator because you 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:25.480 want to have electricity to charge your appliances, you want 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:28.680 to watch a movie, you need to work, you need 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:32.320 to you know, showers, so you want warm hot water, 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:34.120 and you know, how do we do these things? How 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.680 do we turn those on? Um, So basically, you're gonna 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.760 go to a C unit, turn it off, make sure 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.240 that nothing's on, and then you're gonna go over and 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.920 in the side of our r V we have a 0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:46.240 built in generator. So basically we have a button on 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:50.560 the inside that just hit start. You prime it first 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.200 by pushing the button down for about five seconds and 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:55.920 the light will come on to let you know you're good, 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.080 and then you hit start and you hold it and 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:03.320 then your generator will start. Our generators fuel comes from 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:05.040 our engine, so we of course have to make sure 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.560 that we have a full tank of gas. UM. Now, 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.680 if you're it's an off board generator, you know you're 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.920 gonna have to make sure to have a like five 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.440 gallon jug back up and things like that to make 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:16.920 sure that you don't run out of fuel if you're 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:21.280 staying UH in a boon docking situation for multiple times. 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:25.920 Because there's always different types of generators and how they're 0:08:25.960 --> 0:08:30.360 set up within your RV, so it's gonna be a 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:33.520 little bit different for you than it is for Matt 0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:37.440 and myself. But once your generators on, what we do 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:40.480 next is we push out our bed and so that's 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.960 where our slideout is in the rear um, so we 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.040 push out that beds that way we have our full 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:48.160 bed um and then I normally turn on the hot 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:50.640 water heater, so I'll have to make sure that my 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:54.240 propane is on on the outside. So basically I'll have 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:57.280 to walk around the r V to where our propane 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.560 tank is. I'll make sure that that is open so 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:05.120 that way propane is fueling into the r V, and 0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:07.920 then I'll come back in turn on the hot water heater, 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.280 and I'll wait for about five seconds to hear the 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.600 pilot kick on, and then that is what allows me 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.120 to know, okay, it's on, because you'll know, once you 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:22.560 start getting used to this, you'll hear this like sound 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:26.760 inside of your RV that UH is telling you that 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:30.240 it's on. It's a little bit different sounding, but the 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:35.080 rhythms more like that. But yeah, so then you'll have 0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:37.079 that on. You'll be able to do dishes, you'll be 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:41.520 able to um, take warm showers, wash your hands with 0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:45.240 warm water, different things like that. Now r r V 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:50.520 with the heater, it's UM having issues with the blower motor. Um, 0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:52.400 that's what I've gotten it down to so far. I 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:53.960 just have to take it in and really get it 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:57.199 figured out. But that's actually kind of good because that 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:03.880 means my fridge it's still getting propane to keep it cold, um, 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:07.320 even when that generator is off. There's different things like this. 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:11.160 There's different technicalities that you have to understand when boon docking. 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:16.520 That's different from electrical setup because our fridge works off 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:20.080 electricity as well, and so when we have electricity coming 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.440 in from the r V park, it's all fine and dandy. 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.760 We don't have to worry about propane. But when we're 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:28.040 boon docking, we do have to worry about propane. And 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:30.520 so that is when you have to understand how your 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.079 systems start to flow. And through a year of r 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:38.160 V ownership, over a year now, UM, I've really started 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:41.520 to understand these. Now there's some technicalities that I don't 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.640 quite get yet. But that's a learning thing. So I'm 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.320 I'm a learner and I'm figuring it out as we go. 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.920 And this is a beautiful part is our heater doesn't 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:55.160 work because that propane pilot is separate from the hot 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:58.640 water pilot light. Um. And then there's even another one 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:02.200 for your oven and still open things like that. So, um, 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.240 you have to understand where your pilot lights are, um, 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:09.560 what they do to control the temperatures within your RV. Right, 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:16.040 so keeping cold food cold, frozen food frozen, keeping shower 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:18.840 water hots that way you're not taking a freezing cold 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:23.640 shower in the middle of the winter because that happens. Uh. 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:25.560 Those are miserable. I have to do one or two 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:29.640 of those last year, and um uh yeah, I definitely 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:32.320 don't want to do with that again. You are listening 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:43.440 to park Landia from my heart radio. Hi, I'm Matt 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:48.160 and I'm Brad. This Parklandia. So can you leave your 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:52.560 rig after you set it up? Can you leave it? Yes, 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.200 you can leave your rig there as long as you know, um, 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:59.040 it's in an appropriate and safe area. Now you're gonna 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:00.880 want to lock your door, is you know you're gonna 0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:03.400 want to do all the safety precautions that you do 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.880 with a normal home, but you're not going to get 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:11.520 your thing uh towed away in most cases. Um, unless 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:15.840 you or maybe more being obnoxious, you're destructing the land, 0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:20.800 You're you're you're just being overall jerk. That's when they're 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:24.439 gonna take you know, take you out. But if you're 0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:28.360 being respectful of your neighbors of the situation of boondocking, 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.760 then you're gonna be fine. Um. You know, if you're 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:33.880 closer to a city, of course, you know you're gonna 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:38.400 want to take some extra safety precautions. Um. And that's 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.800 coming from t people from the city. But honestly, most 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:53.360 people aren't gonna mess with you uh in these situations either. Now, 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:58.720 when it comes to leaving pets alone when boondocking, I 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:03.120 have a hard time leaving Finn in our r V 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:07.000 while we're boondocking, So it kind of limits the things 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:10.320 that we're able to do when boondocking for an extended 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:14.640 period of time. Um. But if I do, or when 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.160 I do, like let's say we're going on a little 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.840 hike and we're coming back, I always make sure that 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:21.520 generators running with the a c or heat or on 0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:25.080 whatever is necessary to make sure that Finny doesn't get 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:29.200 uh too hot or too cold, because we want to 0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:31.600 take care of him like he takes care of us. 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:34.880 So you're going for your first time boon docking, ever, 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:39.200 I would recommend to make sure to know where the 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:43.920 closest r V park is. And the reason why is 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:45.880 because you want to test it out locally. You want 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:48.679 to test out near your home or within a friend 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.880 or family's home before you just go do it for 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:53.880 a whole week. You know, you want to go learn 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.520 kind of like what we did with Mammoth Caves. You know, 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:58.520 when we were first learning how to just hook up 0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:00.760 in r V, we went to man Caves and we 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:04.480 checked it out and tried it out, found our mistakes 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:07.760 and our issues, and that really helped us in the 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:12.000 long haul um because we had like a small instance 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:16.120 of what we needed. And then in these situations and 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:18.600 boon docking, when you're going to do that, you want 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.520 to test that out locally as well. You can even 0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:22.680 test out in your own backyard, but just make sure 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:24.760 that you're not going to your fridge in your home 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:26.880 for a beer. You want to know that you can 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:29.520 have a cold beer in your in your fridge in 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.920 your r V as well, So make sure to take 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:36.880 the time to learn about your r V. Watch some videos. 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:40.640 There's great YouTube tutorials on YouTube about boon docking for 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.760 the first time, mistakes, for the first time issues that 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:46.440 they run into. And I think it's really an important 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:50.240 thing to do your research before you just go halfway 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.600 across the country to think you can boon dock anywhere 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:56.240 and everywhere, because finding these places are not easy. They're 0:14:56.240 --> 0:14:58.080 not close to things, they're not going to be in 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:01.560 your national parks, their normal not around your national parks. 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:05.280 But sometimes you know you can get away with it 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.520 for the night, but you know you have to be 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:11.840 very careful because you do not want to disturb the wildlife. 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:15.200 The reason, the main reason why boondocking is not allowed 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:18.520 in national parks is because people will run their generators 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:21.560 or their vehicles all night. Well, that changes the ecosystem, 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:25.240 the wildlife's behavior, the whole entire shebang of what that 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:28.040 national park is about, and it's about preserving and protecting 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:32.800 those animals and wildlife. So when people are boondocking in 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:37.000 national parks and the large numbers, it's not safe for 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:47.560 that environment. So that's boon docking with Brad. That's one 0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:51.480 of the hardest episodes to really talk about because there's 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:56.200 so many different situations with boondocking.
