KAYAK CAMPING! 2 Days in a Foldable Kayak on the Tennessee River! | 2022 Summer Road Trip - Ep. 4

Описание: I went kayak camping!! I packed all my stuff into a foldable kayak and spent two days living on the Tennessee River! Y'all, it was hot. As in melt your brain and question your whole existence hot. The crew and I loaded up our boats in Chattanooga after camping on a little island right in the heart of the city, and spent two whole days kayaking through the Tennessee River Gorge on the Tennessee River Blueway. We saw cows, amazing birds, people motor-boatin' around, and our own sweat pouring into our eyes! For this video I decided to try the Oru Inlet kayak, a super cool kayak that folds to the size of a suitcase! Is the Oru Inlet folding kayak a great kayak for kayak camping? Does the Tennessee summer heat and humidity melt us into oblivion? Do summer lightning storms threaten to end our kayak camping adventure early?! You know the drill - watch the video to see!!

This video is not sponsored by Oru! I purchased the Oru Inlet folding kayak because I was curious to try it out and it’s easy to take anywhere!
