    Hello friends! I was going to release this in the morning (Sunday) but wasn't able to get this week's commentary exported in time to release tonight, so, here is the Adventure video. Tomorrow morning you can enjoy the commentary. This week it will be on Authenticity and Living Your Truth. Enjoy.

    How mesmerizing, the sand sliding down the dunes and blowing in the breeze. Magical.

      It's interesting to see how the sand moves about.

    Reminds me of my time at White Sands. I’m long overdue for another visit. I’m sure my daughter love it. Thanks for the amazing content. Hopefully 23 brings more of the same!

    Would love to do a long road trip in the US one day. Did Quebec-Vermont in autumn many years ago, absolutely breathtaking, loved it tremendously.
    Safe travels, Scott and Heather

    I moved out that way about 2 years ago from Denver. Super under appreciated area. And CHEAP. I bought land and am off grid.

      You should! And, if you have the energy, hike up to the lake above it!

    Thank you both for sharing such a great stop! It is so inviting and serene with the Fall colors, Zapata Creek and the dunes. I am always amazed with the footage you produce with only iPhones!
    My daughter and I just returned from an extended weekend up north enjoying the colors and solitude around Flagstaff. We booked the Lupine yurt at Nordic village and had a fabulous time! We hiked to the summit of Kendrick Peak and enjoyed amazing views! Take care always 😊

    Those falls are so neat!!! We looked at some properties in this area. We went up to the campground but there were so many mosquitos we couldn't even get out of the car. That road still bumpy? That road was something else!!! We camped in the campground right before you go into the dunes. I never got out and walked on the dunes, too exhausted from house hunting. I guess if I ever go back i need to take some boots to see that falls.

    • @4XPEDITION
      @4XPEDITION  2 роки тому

      Yes! The hike is very short and very little elevation gain. The roads are ALL paved now. In fact, some of the roads are freshly paved. The road up to the falls campground is paved. It's out there. Heather and I were wondering what would prompt someone to live out that far. The San Luis Valley is vast. I know some people who live in Crestone. We visited there to check it out. That town is remote, too.

    Zapata Falls is my favorite place out there. Next time take your shoes off and walk up the stream to the falls even further. Water shoes or keen type sandals are the best. You are near our property we own that is at 10,000 feet just to the south.
