Sul Doc Falls | Olympic National Park
Short side trip to see some impressive waterfalls within Olympic National Park along the Sol Duc River. Bonus footage at the end of salmon swimming upstream along the river. Our last outing for the 2023 Olympic NP trip with a sentimental goodbye at the end (ha).

Lost Maples Peak Colors 2023
Переглядів 14211 місяців тому
A hike around the East Trail at Lost Maples State Natural Area in Vanderpool, Texas, on National Hiking Day, which happened to be around the same time as the "peak fall colors" time of year. This year's drought seems to have muted the colors, but this incredible hill country destination is always a pleasure to hike.

Two cool places to stop if you're driving west out of Del Rio, Texas. The first is the Pecos River High Bridge where Highway 90 crosses the mighty river the tallest bridge in Texas. The second is a few miles past it, just before Langtry, called Eagle Nest Canyon. Good places to break up your road trip and see some interesting west Texas landscapes!

Navajo Loop | Bryce Canyon National Park
Переглядів 4 тис.Рік тому
Short hike through Navajo Loop and Wall Street at Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. From NPS.gov: Ebenezer Bryce reportedly described his canyon as a "hell of a place to lose a cow". You may empathize with Bryce's frustrating search by looking at the labyrinth of hoodoos at Bryce Canyon National Park. Additionally, Tropic did not always live up to its name.

Angel's Landing | Zion National Park
Переглядів 8 тис.Рік тому
Three out of shape guys that are scared of heights take on the famous Angel's Landing Trail in Zion National Park, Utah. Filmed in July 2023 with extreme heat conditions present. Bring your sense of adventure and plenty of water if you attempt this hike in the summer time! And be sure to cool off in the Virgin River swimming hole after you finish the hike.
TY for sharing! I will never do this beautiful hike due to being sickly afraid of heights. My stomach was turning and flip flopping as you were on the saddle back.
Very dangerous. It's very difficult,. My Husband and I did it. ..be careful. 😮😮
👍🏻🙌🏻 #goodjob
Our bridges are MUCH bigger in California.
Hahaha just teasing, I really enjoyed your video, great variety of vantage points!
Just watching this makes me sick! I literally have to lean back as I watch it. 😢I am happy for those able to do this. I wish it wasn't so paralyzing for me. I'm writing this half way through the 15 minute clip, trying to calm the tingling feeling in my arms. Wow, the cost to see beauty!
Nice place, sometimes I want to go there ❤❤
Great video! I've watched older videos, and it seems like they've added more chain. That would be a must for me, it's the non-chain part that would worry me most. I have a kung-fu grip, from years in construction. Makes me think I could do it. Great job guys!!
The guy with his shirt off has moobs
Don't think I've ever seen someone so out of shape. Embarrassing
❤
I enjoy watching your videos!
You won't believe what happened to us there!
very beautiful trail. Thank you for sharing 👍👍👍
The seas are angry this morning, my friend. It's a very beautiful beach. I'm going to see it this weekend. I live in Tacoma.
Nice! I bet it's getting cold out there this time of year!
such an adventure! my favorite part was the wiggles!
Pretty amazing engineering feat! And I expected it to by more exhausting, but it's really not too bad! Especially in the morning shade.
Hell of a place to lose a cow…
That was Amazing!!!
Elevation gain from Virgin river to Angels Landing summit is 1,488"
Very nice !! I love Bryce 🙂🙂🙂
Thank you! 😀
I wasn’t scared of heights until I watched this…..CREEPY! I don’t think it is on my bucket list. No, no, no. Thanks for hiking it for me!
I'm scared of heights, too, and almost didn't finish! It's hard to push through, but the view up there is incredible.
the distortion of the camera makes it look worse that it really is. At least hike to scouts lookout. Then decide. It's one of my all-time favorite hikes and I've done a lot of hiking throughout my life.
@@keithbond9423 thanks! Maybe I will someday. I live in the east but have traveled to 48 states and I am planning another trip out west.
That's funny, @@keithbond9423 , because I felt the opposite. The wide angle of the camera tends to exaggerate distance, yes, but it also makes the edges look further away than they are in real life. I think in most places it's actually more dramatic than what the camera shows. But still an awesome experience.
How’s the air quality down there?
The air is a little still down there... no breeze or anything. Very eerily quiet, too. But we didn't notice any air quality issues.
Congrats dude! Looks like it’s more mental over physical.
Thanks! It truly was a mental game for us, much moreso than physical.
When i was there in March of 2022, it was so incredible, I was blown away. But there was a ton of snow in some places still. Wall Street was closed due to it. Just getting down into the canyon was such a thrill. But i really felt literally blown out. The thing is that it is all so high up. The ridge is around 8k feet. In some places at its southern end it's 9k feet. 300+ pounds me was really huffing and puffing in that thin air. But it's all just so very magical and stunning and strange. I never let the thin air keep me down, i was in such awe all the time.
It really is hard to describe how incredible it looks! Thanks for sharing.
Hello, do I need a reservation? and where can I do it? thank you
Yes, you do need a permit to hike Angel's Landing. You can do either the seasonal lottery or the day-before lottery. Both are explained on this page: www.nps.gov/zion/planyourvisit/angels-landing-hiking-permits.htm Good luck!
Do rangers check you at the Scott lookout point? Do some ppl just hike without a permit?!
