Indian Staircase Loop!!! Love this trail. We visited some cool spots we hadnt checked out before. Indian Staircase is a popular destination at the RRG. I made a newbie mistake of not having mapped it out prior to our hike as I usually do. I had been there a few years ago and thought I'd be able to navigate but a big NO! Luckily we met Chad and Laura on the way. Chad was prepared! Thanks Chad!!!...

Thanks for the tours You two are incredible ❤️
@@garryfla752 Thanks for watching Garry!!! 👍
The Catholic Church full of liars and idolatry false doctrine since Constantine and Platon days.
Your first flight was cramped, but at least your flight made it to Miami. Fortunately, after much delay we made it to San Jaun. We had such a good time and can't wait to do it again.
@@jeffdurbin2061 we have to go back!!!
The crew on the Rhapsody was the best. We had such an enjoyable time on our cruise.
@@jeffdurbin2061 great staff and crew!!!!
Thanks for taking us along!
sir mike this is kenneth thank you for being part of your vlog ..godbless
@@kenheng9899 I hope you like the video! Stay in touch!
Congratulations for not getting bounced out of any boats!
Did you find the closest Honky Tonk?
Thanks for the video and stopping at my store. I don't believe in coincidences, so I know it was meant to be. Will be checking out your other videos and letting all my hiking friends and customers know about it.
@@michellewidowski3017 Great to meet y'all!!! My reuben was awesome!!! We'll be back!!!
Magkano po fare manila to tugue
@@Mc19742 I believe it was around $100USD roundtrip which very affordable! ENJOY and Thanks for watching!!!
I would tell you about the billboard my grandpa told me they had in whitesburg when it was founded but it wouldnt be appropriate nowdays lol
@@user-vh6uc7fi6y Ha! Would love to hear about it! We plan to get back to Whitesburg some time!!!
As a life time resident of Kentucky I can say I truly appreciate your video! Kentucky is full of gems like the horse cave , and cave city, the large tac is new for me , and I knew about the large case pocket knife… but there are many sights in Kentucky that are not publicized nationally, like the RockHouse in Southern Russell county, it’s a natural arch on the River, and in Pulaski county , north of Somerset there’s the short Creek. It’s the shortest River in the world. Of course you have the largest baseball bat in Louisville Kentucky, just to mention a few…
Thanks for watching! Yes, so many wonderful and interesting places to see in Kentucky. The Rockhouse in Russell Cty is pretty tremendous. Also enjoyed checking out some of the old houses in Creelsboro!
Happy belated birthday wishes! Watching your video I was immediately reminded of a couple places I think you'd enjoy (if you haven't already been there.) In Bloomfield KY there is a little place called Ernie's tavern (Olde Bloomfield meeting hall.) It's an ice cream shop, cafe, 2 lane bowling alley, pool hall, tavern that's chock full of memorabilia. It's supposedly owned by Jerry Bruckheimer. Yeah, the Jerry Bruckheimer from CSI and a bunch of other TV shows and movies. Well worth a look and another lunch! Just a couple blocks north on KY55 is the Maple Grove cemetery. Do stop there and read the historic sign at the entrance!! You can't make up stories like that one!!! AND in the vicinity is the John Deer tractor version of the Cadillac ranch. Really! I think Bruckheimer might own that land but don't quote me on that one. Side note- I tried to include a link to another website that told about it but UA-cam would accept my comments and when I reloaded the page they were gone. Twice!! If you search google maps for John Deer Tractor project you will find it. Also you can visit RoadsideAmerica dot com and search Bloomfield KY Deer John project. Happy Trails!!
Deja vu all over again~ if I've given you this info before- sorry! I'm old, I forget stuff!!
Great video! Happy Birthday!
Thanks Anne!!!
Looking good guys, cool trails!
Thanks for watching! Some great trails to hike when exploring the Parklands! We're looking forward to new trails on some of the newly acquired land in the Broad Run section!!!
I was in the Korean war July 1950 - Sept 1951 17 years old when I arrived in Korea 19 when I came Home A SFC 2 Siver Stars Went To Vietnam 1968-1969 before I went to Vietnam was on escort duty 9times bring home the guys who met their maker in NAM I had the misfortune of losing 16 comrades 26 Oct. 68 and it haunts me at 91 Honor flight for me no way what is done is done I noticed a lot of free loaders on these flights and some true Veterans who I respect!
Thank You for your service!!! You all are truly our country's Heroes!
My dad who is a Vietnam Vet was on the honor flight. We were there welcoming him and all the other Veterans home. It was very emotional seeing all the people there a lot of whom didn't know any of the Veterans. We are blessed to live in a place that supports our military past and present. I hope to be able to attend more welcome home ceremonies in the future. I will also encourage everyone else to attend. Thank you for recording it.
Thank You for watching! It's always an honor for me to truly Honor our Veterans! I encourage everyone to attend an Honor Flight Homecoming!
So glad you guys do this ❤
Thanks for watching! I always encourage everyone to attend and experience an Honor Flight Homecoming! It's an incredible way to Honor these Vets and Thank them for their service. Next one is in September!
👍🏻
That’s the biggest bunch of Lady Slippers I have ever seen.
We found big patches of Pink Ladyslippers! My wife was in wildflower heaven!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Hey Mike and Michelle! Thanks for taking us along for the journey, and showing the fine details. I haven’t been to the Slade area for many years, but I’ve wanted to take that Skylift. Looks like an incredible view!
We've been going to the RRG area for 30+ years and always experience a new adventure although neither of us have ever taken the Skylift. Love it there even though it has gotten quite crowded and much more developed since we first started going. Thanks for watching!
Hi Mike! Rita and I were there last Sunday- Wed camping in the RV middle fork campground. We had pretty good weather and enjoyed our return visit. (We've been there many times over the last 30 years. We were a tad disappointed that the balanced rock trail is closed indefinitely. Fire last year burned the steps and replacement requires a helicopter to lift in supplies. So far Frankfort hasn't approved funds for that.... Also a critical deck that connects the lodge with the nature center is closed due to inspector finding weak foundations. No word when or if that will be repaired. Over all we love the park but are saddened to see that it's suffering due to budget restraints. Hope to see you on the trail one day! Happy Trails!
Michelle was determined to find Ladyslippers and got some good leads on locations. We lucked into a big batch of pink ladyslippers! So many places to explore! Hope to see y'all out and about!!!
That was a cool hike. Love the falls, but I really love the spam and fried baloney sammies. Looked great. Now I think I'm gonna need one. Hugs to Mrs. B.
Let's go to High Grove Grocery for fried bologna sammiches sometime!!!
zup uncle mike! Was supposed to drive you to Bolinao... sorry, got no nanny that week.. keep rockin!
Hope to see you next time!!!
Dogs are to be leashed in big south fork , please remember this next time .
Yep, we met that couple at the trailhead and joined us down. We have a cat at home that probably wouldnt be too happy if we took her!
Ever-changing museum! I last dropped by when the bourbon exhibit started. Did not know that in addition to numbing the pain of pioneer life, it was used to clean wounds, being distilled and partially alcohol.
What an outstanding view!
Bed 111 here, thanks for sharing your travels, my bed motor’s gears are stripped to raise my bed. Dasco sucks. Been over 10 years since I stopped drinking, so I’m not interested in bourbon trail stuff. I need get addicted to therapy. 😅
love this video
Great video
I'm so glad you made this video. I've made two failed attempts to find Hopewell Arch. It's no wonder why I failed; I had no idea how much scrambling there was to get up there and see it. We were so close.
we totally missed and were halfway to Copperas when luckily we ran into someone had pointed us in the right direction. Wife was right! I was wrong! 😬
How far is the cave from the parking lot? Thank you for sharing. Love BSF.
Thanks for watching!!! The "trail" to Devil's Cave is just off of the paved trail to the East Rim.
Nice video, Mike.
Salamat Ernie!!!👍
beautiful place enjoy and be safe
Like everything else in the Gorge, Hopewell Arch is much bigger and grander than it looks on video, but thanks for letting us see a bit of it again.
yes, it was a bit of a challenge to get a good shot of the arch, also on with us in it to give some size perspective! Thanks.for watching!
The little falls by the road is Bell Falls.
i remembered while editing the vid. We always stop by there when it has rained.
Always enjoy your travels! Just the other day, I mentioned your channel to another hiker. “They go to some of the most amazing places, love them both!”
Thanks Roger! We watched your channel for some ideas!
Great video! You left no stone unturned out there. The Double Falls is an adventure of its own.
Thanks for the recommendation!
So cool!
What an amazing experience with your family! Go dad!
Amazing resting grounds. ❤ what an experience for Yasmin. And y’all.
Did you all see Indian kettles.
Keep it up. I am looking for old posts. The world is a beautiful place. We’re idiots destroying the past work of our ancestors.
Hey bro, I was in 111 at the place near Ramsey. I enjoy your videos and hope you are enjoying the trip. I’m okay, still recovering, just wanted you to know that I miss seeing you and talking about trivia. Be safe and let me explore the world by watching you. 🤙
Beautiful cathedral. Thanks for taking us along. ❤
Gorgeous church, thank you for taking us along as you visit. ❤
Where is this located?
Hi Brett, this was south of St Croix. I need to get back there sometime because I believe there are more cool things to see! Thanks for watching!

Tears of joy, seeing friends and family from home.
