    Unlikely you're still reading comments after so long, but just in case...Good for you for making this a family affair. Love seeing good people in the world. There's not enough of them, so good on you. I found your video by trying to find this spot so I can take my young sons (and Labrador).

    You don't need modifications for this trail. I've been to the top and back down with a stock XJ (when it was stock), and a stock 3/4 Ton truck. Except for when it's muddy, there aren't really any places on that specific trail where you absolutely need 4WD, just maybe a little clearance. Try going the other direction to Sycamore Creek - turn left (west) instead of right (east) off of the 87. Go past the little dam. You won't get stuck if you stay out of the soft sand in the creek bed. There are some really cool places to go back there... and some of them are fairly difficult for mostly factory vehicles.

If you search that in OnX or even google it will pop up. Hope you go. It was amazing! If you have a higher clearance vehicle, 2WD may be able to make. I recommend 4wd.

I have a Tacoma and we pile the dogs and kids in and travel to unknown locations to have these memories cause you only have one shot at this. Would you mind messaging me the name of this overlook. We are planning on heading to a few spots in the Grand Canyon-Parashant area but this looks gorgeous. Thank you again

    Well done. I was going to give you a hard time for adding even more exposure to the wonderful Kofas. But, your camp setup, calm demeanor and chill pace changed my mind. I've been going to the Kofas for over 25 years, in the winter of course. I've had to let it go recently because of a couple of seasons where the hoards from Quartzite would come up the canyon (Queen's Canyon) in their ATV wagon trains and really spoil the serenity. I'll start exploring the backcountry more thanks to this video. A side note. I stopped having a campfire when backpacking or camping alone. Nothing separates you from Nature like a campfire. It commands all your attention. You see it, feel it, smell it and smell it. Everything happening around the camp is drowned out by the fire. There are night sounds and scenes that are constantly going on all around. The desert landscape on a full moon night is unworldly. On the other hand, there is no better social glue than a campfire. Thanks for the Kofa moment.

    • @thesecondhalf5823
      @thesecondhalf5823 11 місяців тому

      I appreciate the comment and feedback. Although I've hiked all my life, this type of activity is relatively new to me so I'm always learning. I love campfires, for the reasons you mentioned and for their kind of meditative qualities, like you said...it drowns out the rest of the world. But your perspective caught my attention. I'll be sure to include some non campfire nights in the future.

      Tons of camping opportunities. Per some quick research: If you want to stay the night, reserve a spot at Tamarisk Grove Campground or Borrego Palm Canyon Campground. Or, take advantage of the park’s primitive/backcountry camping policy: You can camp anywhere in the park, free of charge, as long as your car is not parked more than one length off the road (your site can be pitched further away).
