Thank you for the video! I love its picture and your narration. Keep producing more videos. You showed me such a beautiful places, which picturesque views will be with me from now on. I would like to visit those places myself one day. Btw i am watching you from Russia 🇷🇺
Wow! I admire how much effort you put into making this, from all the hiking, research, post production, and so many spectacular images. I've driven down Hwy. 89 several times and never knew about the White Rocks. Makes you upset to know you are so close, and missed it. Did Toadstools nearby, liked it a lot, but White Rocks is the Mother Lode. This is a major site in southern Utah.
@@ShrekSwag thanks! So many great scenes simply means too many pictures!! The lens I use 95% of the time is a Tamron 16-300 super zoom. I love it. About 30% of pics in the video were shot by my wife using a 17-40 Canon red ring. We both use a Rebel T7i. Video was shot with a GoPro 6 Black.
I watched last night your grand tour of Escalante and i know now how to start planning with all your advice. I have been interested in this particular area since i hike to the wave, 18 years ago! Just got back from Canyonlands and going to the GC raft trip in a month. LOVE your videos! Long time subscriber! Rosie from Dallas
This is really well done... You should do many more of these in the Grand Staircase-Escalante NM. The BLM NM sites are just not very clear from a trail standpoint which creates confusion! Maybe Kanab, UT could provide you a grant :)
This is one of your best videos to date. So awesome! So much to see! Such excellent photography & videography! And please continue with the "geology stuff." It's not boring. Not to me, anyway.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed. If you're not bored, then I'm not bored! Regardless, the geology and how everything seemed to have been formed here is soooo coool, it would be a sin not to share it with everyone.
You're welcome and thank you for commenting. No, not recommended to hike to Wahweap Hoodoos from Sidestep Canyon. Plus you wouldn't fit it in on one day.
@@BackRoadsWest1Thank you! I happened to watch another youtube video who hiked to Wahweap Hoodoos. ua-cam.com/video/q7NXbA4WxTY/v-deo.html. And another video to there by Big Water and 9.2 miles hiking roundtrip.
Great overview! I was wondering about the road condition of 435. I have a Jeep Trailhawk (factory specs). Under dry conditions, would it be possible to tow a small teardrop trailer to the trailhead? Thanks for the boring geology. :-}
You seem very knowledgeable. We live in Phoenix but have a place in Church Wells. We have yet to explore in White Rocks, since we have two very young children, but plan to this winter
@@kmb651 too funny, you have place in Church Wells, right next doors to White Rocks. Well, we live in Hurricane, and that would be like us not visiting Zion! Church Wells is a nice uncrowded place when you need to get away from the bustle of Phx. There's so much to explore out there, not just White Rocks. You'll need to explore Smokey Mtn Rd our of Big Water, but not with a BMW sedan!
@BackRoadsWest1 We usually drive a fully built Tacoma. We've done a ton of exploring up there, just not enough on foot. We've done Smoky Mountain, Left Hand Collet, Alstrom Point, Cottonwood Canyon, Cutler Point and so much more. We love it up there!
@@kmb651 Perfect vehicle! Those are all the great places and you're much closer than us. Here's our tour on Left Hand Collet in case you haven't seen it: ua-cam.com/video/j3R8EZO2ry0/v-deo.html

Thank you for highlighting this intricately beautiful area! It's on my to-do list now for sure.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
WONDERFUL! I MUST GO! THANK YOU!

Thank you! We have also driven by on Hwy 89 many times over the decades and finally studied the map of this place a few years ago.
Love your videos!! Visiting the area in mid-September and hope to see White Rocks and White Pocket.
Glad you enjoy them. Good luck!
First comment! I love your channel and am excited to watch this video. Thanks for making these!!!
You're welcome. Thanks for commenting and certainly for watching them!
@@BackRoadsWest1 Do you have a favorite camera lens? Great pics!!!!

Glad to hear both videos were useful. It's a big place to see!!
Great content ❤

Super ‼️‼️‼️‼️Great‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️👍👍👍👌👌👌👌🇨🇭🇨🇭
Thanks for the great video! Can we hike to Wahweap Hoodoos from there, the White Rock?

Thank you. I've seen BMWs and other street vehicles parked at the trailheads (end of 435). So there's your answer!
@BackRoadsWest1 We've taken our BMW X5 to this trailhead! I was going to comment that but you beat me to it!
Are you local to this area?
Depends on what you call a local. We live 1.5 hours from the site. Why do you ask?
