No. There is enough space between the burners and the bottom of the stove to keep it cool.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Wedge is very beautiful. The road was in great shape and didn't require high clearance, but getting to some of the camps sites may need it. It's a different story when it's wet. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Thanks. This little guy was pretty fun to watch.

Thanks! it's an incredibly beautiful place. I can hardly wait to go back. The road past the summit was in great shape and I'd say even better due to it seeing less use. It looks like they have brought it up to grade like the road from French Glenn. I did a quick drive through of the Fish Lake campground, but it was full, so I headed up to where I camped in the video. The next time I'm out there, I'm definitely going to hike down to Wild Horse Lake, but I'll probably skip the cold swim...😬 Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Maybe a small, high clearance, 4x4 type, but there are some tight switchbacks on a steep downhill. I think there is a sign at the top cautioning people not to take trailers down into the canyon, so proceed with caution. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

@@AbouttheJourney thx for the reply. That was the sense I was getting when I watched this and another video I saw.

I did stop by to look at the camping options, but it was full so I camped elsewhere. It's really beautiful and I probably should have taken some footage. I guess I'll just have to go back... Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

I went through the wildlife refuge too. It's a beautiful area. Thanks for watching.

Yes, I probably should have said at the beginning.

The locals did find out and showed up to watch the show...from a safe distance, of course.

And that was after they tried to fill in the craters and cover them with concrete. As you can see, it has collapsed.

These tests were conducted while the Department of Defense was looking for a suitable location for NORAD.

How does it make no sense? Our government wanted to know how well bunkers hold up to bombs of different yields, at different depths. So they could find the ideal ratio bunker stability and depth to ensure survival and continuity of government. Something that's going to come into play anyday now when the nukes start flying. They've been prepping for it for decades. 🤙

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. This is a fantastic place to go and explore. Thanks for watching. ~ Mike.

Thanks, Ervin! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's really cool and this is just a small part of the Swell. It's a huge geologic formation with a lot of backcountry.

Thanks! It's a really beautiful place to camp and hike (great backpacking too) and I'm glad you appreciate the filming. I've always liked good cinematography in the movies so I try my best to channel inner cinematographer into hiking and camping videos, lol. There is so much interesting history in all of the places that we outdoor UA-camrs go, so please, copy away! I always enjoyed learning about a places back story and I think a lot of our viewers appreciate a little bit of history along with the awesome scenery too.

Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you watched the video. Tristan has inspired a lot of us on UA-cam and I've always appreciate his angle and contributions to the outdoor UA-cam genre. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. The San Rafael Swell is a really great place to loose yourself in for a few days/weeks. There is so much backcountry here. Most of the roads in the area aren't going to require high clearance and only get questionable when they get too wet. I see a lot of people taking their Subarus, camper vans and SUVs out here so a truck would have no problem. If you have any questions about the area, feel free to DM on Instagram. Thanks for watching!

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! You'll have to go down there sometime! Thanks for watching!

Yes it is! There were quite a few people on the Wedge, so we camped over at the East Wedge, which wasn't too far. I'm down here again, this time with Isabelle. She's never been before.

Not true

I try to avoid them if possible, but they're beautiful to look at!

This was in Northern Utah, much farther north than the Mojave Rattlers range.

This was the second one I've seen in the last couple of weeks. Really pretty too.

Thanks! I'm always glad to hear that these videos have been helpful for people. My main goal is to encourage more people to get out and enjoy their public lands. This is a great hike, particularly in the early summer. All of the streams and springs will be flowing and it's really green. Thanks for watching! Mike

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's a beautiful place to camp and hike. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Thank you! This place is amazing and quite a bit of fun to film in. Thanks for watching, Ervin!

You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed the hike. It's a long day on the trail with a good amount of elevation gain, but totally worth it. Have a camp waiting at the bottom is a great way to do it. There are four USFS campgrounds along the South Willow Canyon rd, including one at the trailhead, so lots of options. The Stansburys have quite a few nice hikes in them. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Thanks! The Monkey Wrench Gang sure is a fun read. Edward Abby loved the red rock country and it shows on many levels in his writing. Thanks for watching, Cameron!

Hey, Kalman! Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's a really cool place with a lot of interesting history, some that I didn't have time to cover in this video. Great hiking too! It's definitely worth spending some time there, just don't do it in the summer...hot, hot, hot!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. This place is very nice, with a ton of interesting bits of history, geology, and great camping and hiking. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Yes it is! We saw a few people, mostly around Whitney Pockets, but other than that, we had the place to ourselves most of the trip. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

I've been in the Seven Keyholes Slot canyon a couple of times before and I had never seen some of these petroglyphs...walked right past them. These days, I spend a little more time looking closely at my surroundings. It astonishing just how many rock art panels there are in this area. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

I hope you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

You're welcome! I usually pay close attention to public land issues, but this one flew under my radar too. I didn't hear about it until 2016, a full 9 months after it's designation. It's really nice out there! Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Wow, I had no idea that went on here. There are so many interesting events that played a roll in our country's history. Thanks for the history lesson! The Deadliest Indian War in the West sounds like an interesting read too. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Thanks for taking the time to share that. I have heard the cannon story before, but the version I heard was that it was lost somewhere between Watson and Hole In The Ground (many miles north). Your (Michno) version is probably the correct one. Funny how as stories are told, the stories change.

@@Freedomquest08 - Get Michno's book, and you will really enjoy the history of Oregon and Idaho.

@@charlieswearingen500 Noted. Thanks.

You'll find a lot of solitude out here for sure. There is so much undeveloped, wild public land out here in the west that I rarely see any hunters. Most of the time when I encounter them, it's during the deer season and they're off trail. I worry about some of the recreational shooters. Too much drinking and carelessness. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike

Yes, they were. It looked like they had been graded recently. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike
