If you get a chance go over and watch this video of mine .. it is one of my *FAVORITES * high high desert peak ua-cam.com/video/f-3iAxVFUKE/v-deo.html
There is so much Apache history in SW New Mexico. My father, older brother and I walked many miles from Hermosa to the Animas, south seco, north seco, Reeds peak and places in between. I always imagined I was walking on the Apache footprints, sitting where they may have, camped and built a fire in the same spot. Watched a sunrise and set the same as they did. So many good memories. My father passed away at age 88 on Oct 8th. We recalled our moments in the Black Range before he passed. If you are still young enough go on an adventure with your father. Or many. The memories will sustain you when he passes on. Brett, thank you so much for your videos and the reminders of my trips in the beautiful Black Range.
Your welcome .. sorry about your dad sounds like a great man .. mine is 89 still in decent health .. I've been to those places you talk about in the black range .. I've been thinking about packing into a place in the Gila where my father took me on my first pack trip .. now after your comment I have to go .. Thank you
Another great video 👍
Neat video. I’ve always been interested in Geronimo and the Chiraqua Apaches. I agree with what you said at 23:08; once it got too narrow I’m headed back the other way!
This really hit home. I lost my dad 3 years ago. It still stings. A lot of regret about the plans we had and things we never got to do. Hopefully one day I'll have a son to share those experiences with.
My late Pop's took me on many....and taught me so much about the Hills of Virginia and beyond....❤
I have much respect for Geronimo and I have always said he is a Great Warrior and a Great Man.
It would be a great honor to go to this cave
New sub here. This video featured amazing production value, especially considering it was a one man operation. Hand held camera, tripod camera, drone shots, controlling multiple animals and navigating a wilderness. Thanks for taking us on the journey!😃
Awesome, thank you! It is a chore .. lots of work but I do enjoy it .. and your welcome!
Awesome
Excellent production. Almost unbelievable 😅 ... what a world! I'm melting, melting. You are my last hope, no pressure, just come up clean. Namaste
Agnes sure loves you. She will follow you anywhere. Proof that if you love and treat your animals with care and respect, they will want to be of service to you. Your dogs, too, are pure troopers. Always in the background, securing the perimeter.
Great video.
We are a team .. Thank you
Come on Agnes!
Agnes: No, thank you!
Your beloved horse,Agie,,has intuition,and knew she wasn’t going in there,so she turned around,she must have felt something . I noticed even your dogs didn’t go in,so they know something too! Animals have a sixth sense,they know before us.
Thanks for taking us along. I really enjoyed it!
Your right ..none of them liked it in there .. thanks
blah blah blaaaaah
One thing I’ve heard about mules is they are all about self preservation 😅 while a spooked horse will run off a cliff a mule would turn around
@@outinspace3083mustangs are smart like mules. They are always on alert.
The animals are lazy and simply want to go back to the barn. Nothing enchanting turned them away. However I still enjoyed the content
Awesome I love it. I am Mescalero Apache myself. I've never been here and would hope to make a trip here. The Apaches back in the day really new the territory and new where to go to take shelter. I'm glad you made this video.
Thank you .. yes they knew where to go and how to survive
I am too this was interesting to watch
Just curious @tre2472, did you ever know Aiden Balatche? He was my neighbor for two years in high school, then my roommate for one semester at college. He was a Mescalero Apache, his family from Mescalero, New Mexico. He was a good man!
Old Nana a was 90 year old mescalero apache war chef who did raids with geronimo and victoro
Really enjoy and appreciate your videos, I am now 66. As young boys and teenagers my dad would take myself and my two brothers exploring in the southwest traveling from Ohio in the months we were out of school. Had family in Tucson and Roswell. Dad passed 3 years ago at 84 of cancer. His ashes are spread amongst the deserts around Yuma where he spent a lot of his retired winters.
Sorry about your Dad ... sounds like you have some good memories .. thanks
God be with You....
Did anyone else notice the face 💀 at the back of the cave
when he first walked in .
Great adventure thanks for sharing
Thanks... I didn't notice until I seen the footage ..
I did strait away, looks like a skull to me.💀
Yes the 2 eyes and nose 👃 I wonder if the crevices represents the brain 🧠 or functions of that part of the brain, I wish I could see the walls around maybe for paintings
I’d wondered if the rocks had been sanded down a long long time ago.. a message upon entry , to ward off strangers. I did deep cave walking, n scooting on your face n bottom. It must have been exuberance of my youth and peers.. I have claustrophobia then and now as an old timer. My heart raced watching you go further in. I spent time in Las Cruces area and hiked the Organ Range and went into Texas up into the mountains to see and follow the Butterfield Overland Mail Trail, I think it was the Guadalupe Mountains. So beautiful. We went from salt flats at the bottom up n up. The mountains there are majestic. Its incredible to read how mail , money , passengers too, in stagecoach going up to 100 miles a day. Cowboy riders n horses being switched out. I’ve read the trail went from Missouri to California.. 2700 miles.. This mode lasted 3yrs and ended in 1861. I need to read up on post Butterfield Trail.. probably extension of train tracks and Western Union? Love your video .. your Agnes is a devoted friend and your dogs.. great pack of protectors. What a great adventure!
Yep, I saw it , too!
I am 70 and I admire your tenacity. You' re living a great life. I have always said, in my next life, I want a horse and a dog.
Wow, thank you!
You're lucky to have a friend like Agie
Yes she is pretty special .. her and my hounds I wouldn't be without .. Thanks
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I was talking to a White Mountain Apache man two days ago and he told me about Geronimo's cave in Arizona on the Reservation. He had me look it up on the internet but nobody knows about it to document it. Little do people know he had more than one cave. It's wonderful to see the history Geronimo played a part of.
I heard of one over in AZ also .. Thanks
Wrong group of Apaches. Geronimo wasnt from the White Mountains. He was Chiricahua apache/ Warm Sorings. They all got put in the Fort Sills reservation.
White mountain apache are traitors n the San Carlos apaches do not like them. Because they helped the calvary against Geronimo. They provided scouts to try n track n help capture Geronimo n Cochise. I know, I'm born n raised right here on the Gila n the Pinalenos n Chiricauhuas. Don't believe these yahoo's n don't believe everything you here on internet... this dude isn't even in the right area. Lmao... hey I have some oceanfront property in Arizona... if you'll buy that I'll throw the golden gate in too...
Yes and I know where 2 are... my best friend was Bylas Apache w Chiricauhua ... we spent many years together on many mountains.... We were wildland firefighters for 14 years together... R.i.p. El Chingon.
@@PSC9634I hear Arizona as well when I lived in Tucson
Thank you! God bless you and Agnes (and the dogs)!
Thanks
Agnes is one great mule. The dogs are keepers as well.
''' Watch For Me On the Mountain" is a biography of Geronimo I read years ago by Forest Carter, I believe. He also wrote the "The Education of Little Tree". This man is an exceptional writer and his Geronimo biography is beautifully written, powerful and moving.
I will have to look it up ... Thanks
He was also Buster Carter, speech writer for Governor George Wallace.
@@BrettVaughnB100I am not Native American but I think public schools (and every American) should watch the Little Tree movie. So sad what they were put thru especially the children. Our government treated them ALL so horribly.
I heard it was written by a white supremacist member.. seriously.
What a great adventure!
Thanks Todd .. it was and close to home
Love the footage you get especially with the drone. It adds a whole new perspective to your journey and to our enjoyment of watching your adventures. Always great to see Agnes pluggin along and could relate to her resistance to going into that cave. It’s as if she was saying “this old cowboy is crazier than I thought he was, there’s no way I’m going in there”.
lol she did go in just didn't want to stay .. Thanks I try to show different perspective's
A great adventure. I never did learn to ride mules but I used to log with them. There are incredibly reliable and sturdy creatures. When I was a kid I use to hike with my father and brother in the area of Cochise's Stronghold in southern Arizona, long before it became a park. It was an amazing area to explore as a kid. With all of the cactus and rattlesnakes I am amazed you take your dogs with you. The Lord bless and keep you.
I love south Arizona, Tuscon, Sierra Vista is great, I feel like I've been there in another life when there. The wide open peace is crazy, the sky is unbelievable, I grew up east coast in mountains so geology is completely different than I was used to.
Went on a pack trip in the greybull wilderness Wyoming , they are much calmer and sure footed on mules, I take them any day over horses.
Is this in the Dragoon Mountains or in Crooke's Springs?
We at Teen Challenge continue to pray for your health. A small group of us watch your channel. Thank you for the bottle. We sent a little support your way, more coming next week. I personally enjoy this. Im from Carlsbad NM. We hunt. There’s some old-timers that trapped when I was a kid…
Wow thank you I really appreciate it!!
So evocative , that cave holds amazing vibrations. Brilliant video, thank you Agnes , wonderful to watch this adventure 🙏💗
Thank you!
Great video, thanks. I grew up in Radium Springs, been in that cave several times. I'm 78 now and greatly appreciate your perspective.
Thank you .. I bet Radium has changed alot since you were here
I am a 75 year old lady. Ive been a tomboy all my life. I'm not manly or gay. I have just always loved being outdoors, with my hiking boots on hiking some beautiful mountain trail. I live in Washington state, The
Agnes was no fool. She sense the presence of others in there.
Spooky spirits .. Thanks
Agnes was not sensing dead humans,,christendom has been peddling that immortal soul lie for centuries.Read the bible yourself and you find out that death is the opposite of life.The dead are totally unconscious Eccl 9:5-10.Psalms 146:4,,,1thess 4;13.Jesus himself described the dead as sleeping John 11:11-14.The wicked who die are asleep.Psalms 31:17,,,Psalms115:17.The soul is not immortal Ezekiel 18:4.Hell is not a place of torment.The bible says that Jeus was in hell Act 2;27-30.Hell is simply the greek word hades and hebrew word sheol translated in to english.All three words mean the same thing---mankinds common grave.When Adam died he went back to the dust he was made from,not a place of torment. Genesis 2:7,,,Genesis 3:19.I know all this comes as a shock to you,but just realize as so many gov and private institutions lie to you,,,so has organized religion.They are vestages of corruption and dishonesty.
It’s amazing to imagine the life Geronimo lived and the journey’s that he took. I live in Alabama and my family vacationed in Pensacola Florida out on Santa Rosa Island when I was a kid . Ft Pickens is located there and is the location where Geronimo and some of his warriors were held in the late 1880s … on the tour you are shown the area of the fort that was their living quarters. It’s was a amazing feeling to be there and also sad… they weren’t treated well, being forced to do hard labor from what I understand. What a amazing piece of history that your video shows.. thanks for sharing ✝️🇺🇸👆🏻
I bet that was interesting .. and a shame really .. Thank you
I visited that fort and felt the same way.
He was locked up for for raiding, raping and mutilating settlers.
Important piece of history, but lets not pretend they were nice people
Glad you got to go on this adventure. Your dogs are great companions and beautiful to boot !
Thank you .. they are good company
Ole Agnes was a trustworthy and reliable mule ... I'm sure you miss her very much.. She had to have been a good friend.
Good job! I really appreciate all your content. I was off work for 3 months with a total knee replacement and always looked forward to your videos, while I was healing.
Thats great thank you ... hope the knee healed ok
Awesome vid Brett. I broke 4 ribs about a week or so ago & they sharp ends are fractions of millimeters away from my lungs, heart & aorta so doc says no riding for 4-6 weeks.. can’t risk a fall or hard bump that could cause any penetration of bone into important stuff so I’m riding vicariously through you.. Thank you for posting
Glad I can help .. take care of yourself .. I know its hard I just went through something similar .. won't be long and you'll be back in the saddle . Thanks for coming along
The thought about 'how is Agnes going to turn around' popped into my mind just a couple of seconds before you mentioned it! Seems she did ok :)
Pretty flexible lol thanks
Glad to see ya again. Good to see your in good health. May God grant you many many more adventures. I sure enjoy watching you and your animals.
Thank you I do appreciate that ..
I look forward to each video, this one is fantastic! I’ve studied the southwestern tribes. I would love to go to these places. I’m disabled and can’t get that far from home because my wife is also disabled and can’t walk. But I get there through you. Thank you.
Your welcome and thank you ... if there is anything in particular you would like to see .. let me know .. if you can get on my mailing list and send me an email .. I got something for you and your wife .. again thank you
Pretty cool vid! I’d heard of that cave all my life, and had a great uncle get a long ways back in it , in the 1930s. He said he could feel the cross draft but never did get all the way through it.
That would be cool ... I just don't like caves very much .. Thanks
G'day Brett thank you for the very informative history of Geronimos world and the beautiful countryside fabulous camera work you do and great music to suit.Growing up in the bushland of Qld Australia in the fifties as a kid I was always fascinated with the American Indian history in 2008 I flew to Cuba fly fishing for giant tarpon and at the airport in LA I met a descendant of Geronino he was on his way home after preforming traditional native dancing in Sydney Australia that sure made my trip not to mention the 70lb tarpon I caught.Safe travels and good health.
lol sounds like a good trip .. I do like the west and the history of the Indians that lived here .. Thanks
It looks so much like Pyatt’s cave on the edge of Ft Huachuca. Cochise used to evade the cavalry there in the same way Geronimo did. It comes out in Mexico on the other side.
Amazing! I’m still fascinated by the Indians and their many abilities. Their spiritual too. I was stuck in a cave once. Took me half an hour to wriggle free. Haven’t been in one since.
Me too .... Being stuck in one would drive me crazy I think ... Thanks !
@@BrettVaughnB100 I certainly lost a few of my 9 lives that day. Guys with 50” chests don’t belong in caves!
I have my mule saddled and ready to go on another adventure with you!!! 😁
Linda from Missouri 👍🥰😊♥️
lol Thanks .. keep them in shape cause we are going to making some more .. Thanks !!!
Glad to see you're doing well and back out there. Two years ago I was going to try doing the Geronimo trail that goes from Douglas Arizona to the National Forest in New Mexico. But after taking a drive out of Douglas, I decided rocks wasn't worth the risk. Someday maybe.
I will have to look that trail up ... is it a long one? .. Thanks
We would be great friends! I was born 100 years too late too! I can't wait to see history out there again!
Thank you for bringing this to life for us!
Thanks .. I think there are a lot of us
you're my hero Brett. I feel and say, I'd rather die trying to live my life, than set idle worrying about dying.
Thank you .. absolutely .. gotta keep going
Amen my friend
I KNOW what you're steppin in! When I lived in the Ozarks of MO, we would tour caves and caverns all the time, loved it! 20 years later, about 50 yrs old, my girlfriend and I were in Chatanooga TN. They have the worlds deepest cave/cavern there and we bought tickets to tour it. You enter the cave system through an elevator which takes you to te bottom and you walk out back through the cave system to the outside exit. The minute I stepped out of the elevator into the cave my chest tightened up so bad I could not breathe "I'm in good shape, not overweight nor have I ever smoked. I could not breathe! The elevator had gone back up for another load and I told the guide to get it back down immediately! NEVER have I had this or anything like this, but I got so clostraphobic, I had to go back up and my girlfriend continued the tour. She said it was very very tight in some of the area, I would have passed out and had them carry me out! Crazy! But now, I'm so clostraphobic, any tight confined quarters set me off. So, I feel your pain brother, I could not go any further in Geronimo's Cave than the sunlit area's! Great video, thx!
Man I understand .. I've gone down in Carlsbad caverns but it is big lots of room .. real deep but not as tight ... Thanks
Thanks for sharing. Every time I drive by radium springs I think about the legend of Geronimo’s cave. I’ve always wanted to go check it out. A group of guys I know claimed to make it all the way through but they said you needed ropes. I was watching with my 6 year old and he noticed you got on the “wrong side” it opened up a discussion about on side and off side and that it was good to work with your animals to be able to do both. I thought it was funny so thanks for the learning opportunity for a kid.
Thats amazing that he noticed that because Agnes has never had a problem with it but it took me a long time to get comfortable doing it after so many years of getting on the other side .. but when your in steep country its lots easier to mount on the up hill side ... I have heard about guys going all the way thorough and I would sure like to know where they came out .. Thank you
All trail horses should be trained to mount from both sides. Otherwise you will find the "on" side on a downward slope and no chance to get on. It really is no thing to train it - you just do it.
As always your videos are still my favorite.Brett I have the same heart problem that u have.I been in the hospital 3 times in a little over a year and half.I have had my heart shocked back into rhythm.I’ve had 1 ablation and it didn’t fix the problem so my cardiologist has plans on doing another ablation.So thanks to agent orange from Vietnam.Enjoyed this video as always.Keep up the good work and I’m waiting on the next one.Take care and thanks
I hope they get it fixed ... I'm not so sure my ablation totally worked .. still feel some fluttering when I sit down ?? Thank for watching
Your are a Blessed Man.
To go on your rides with you is a blessing to me.
Thank you sir
Thank you ... glad you came along
Love to see your videos Brett . As
I told you I live vicariously through them due to my health. Great trip today.Drone footage today was spectacular. Glad to know you’re better health wise .
Glad I can help .. thank you very much .. kinda tricky riding a mule in the rough and flying a drone lol
@@BrettVaughnB100 I thought the same same
I grew up in England, and as a child we use to yell out “Geronimo!” every time we would jump from a high ledge. His story reached all the way to England. Awhhh. Yes, I too wish that I was born about 150 years ago.
lol .. I think there are many of us .. Thanks
I find this VERY fascinating! And your birds eye done footage?? Outstanding!! We are going to that part of NM this winter.
Have fun! Good place to be in the winter time .. Thank you
Geronimo was my favorite apache and his history is wonderful
Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! Absolutely stunning!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
Brett you have no idea how much i envy yo and identify with the sentiments of your youtube handle. I too feel lle i was born 100 years to late in 1973. I dearly miss my beloved southwest too. One day i hope to be able to return.
Hope you can too ... I think there are a lot of us .. Thanks
@BrettVaughnB100 untill I moved out to Maine to escape the junkies and violence that plagues my beloved AZ I was living in Cochise County and roaming all over South East AZ from the Slaughter ranch to Nogales. I drove and explored every cow path and 2 trach I could point my 4runner up. If I had a spine left to tolerate the saddle any more I would happily make those journeys via a mules back. Never been much of a horse guy but always got along with mules. I suppose my dad was right when he said I was a hard-headed jackass....sadly in far north east Maine I am seeing the exact same issues we had in AZ. Albeit at a lower level of intensity but that is where it starts. One day I hope to get back to that end of the universe. Went through Pie town NM once and though that would make a hell of a place for an old wanna be cowboy like me too...just not fond of the politics of NM and its leadership...but I suppose you can't escape what's coming any more...anyway....thats again for your content. Be safe and ride well.
One of the best videos I've seen. Agnes looked very happy to get out of there. Thank you for taking us somewhere we'll probably never go ourselves.
Your welcome .. thanks for watching
My blind wiener dog Leroy loves to listen to your dogs hunt. He can sniff out anything but would walk off a cliff. Lol.
BTW, I work for the Ft Sill Apache tribe here in Oklahoma. Amazing history.
Thank you ... give Leroy a treat for me lol
Another great video and history lesson Brett Thank you so much for sharing a beautiful place where I will never be able to see doing it on my own.
Thank you ... glad you got to see it and came along for the ride
Can definitely understand how easy it would be to become lost in the desert! Got turned around once in the mountains near Jackson. Scared me enough to not take stupid chances again.
Not fun .. thanks
Missed your videos. Ive crawled thru indian caves and mine shafts throughout AZ all my life. Didnt used to bother me. After 12 yrs living in OK i always have "what happens if there is an earthquake" lurking in the back of my head.
So much history in them there hills.
lol I had that same thought .. and yes lots of history .. I do want to visit some of those places ..Thanks cactuspatti !
Who are you Brett? Did you grow up in Cruces or are you a transplant? We used to party up at Geronimos cave (could be why they closed it🤔)... I left my email on your list... Sandy
It's my birthday, sitting in chilly WV dreaming of warmer, less humid weather where I feel better. This video was a highlight of this day, great reminder of the vastness of nature, our ability to touch history if you know what you are looking at and do a little research. Watching your animals explore is fascinating. Keep on going onward and upward! lol thanks for the video
Happy birthday! Late maybe ... Thanks for watching glad I could help .. Onward and Upward
Wow what a cool adventure! Loved it! Thank you!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it .. more to come I hope
I loved this,,You and Your Mule are Adorable, Love how you treat her...Excellent Video.. Stay Safe Always🙏🙏
A great video well done, I envy you living in that country and taking us along on your explorations is beautiful, hope you have many more like this.........
Thank you, I will try
Awesome adventure! Thanks for letting us tag along. Greetings from Panama🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦🙋🏽♂️
That’s a beautiful mule, I want to find myself a good four legged friend to go on adventures with.
As the economy tanks, there will be many fine animals for nearly free. It has happened before.
I remember some 35y + yrs ago being up close to the top between Sugarloaf and Massai and hearing the Elk bugle early in the morning as We camped out in just sleeping bags right on the grass and just so mesmerized and knowing how lucky I was to se it.
Sounds good .. Thanks
I apologize , Im talking about the Chiricahua Mountains in Southern Arizona.@@BrettVaughnB100
Really interesting commentary and exploration. How do your dogs avoid getting cactus spines in their feet? Agnus looks like a real good companion.
She is a good one .. they learn to get around in it and if they do get any they can pull them out with their mouth .. thanks
It's not you feeling tight, but in that cave after you go back past the entrance light, in that big room the air is stale there, and get worse as you go back, you can use a lighter and only the tip will burn meaning low oxygen. The cave doesn't have a second exit anymore, if it ever did it's gone now.
At least you had a good trail to follow up to the cave Brett lol. Thanks for the adventure, love the stories and tales. Old Agnus might have been the first mule in that cave👍🏻
lol yeah a regular highway .... I bet she was .. unless those soldiers or any of those Indians had mules lol Thanks
@@BrettVaughnB100 👍🏻
the name of the mule is Agnes, not agnus 🙂
That was very cool thanks for taking us along and sharing the story, and great back around music too, God Bless
Thanks .. trying to be creative ..
What a BEAUTIFUL video! Thank you Brett. Wow! that areal footage is awesome and the music is awesome too. Again THANK YOU for such a beautiful video full of magic and legend.
You are so welcome... thank you very much .. glad you noticed the music .. I worked hard finding some that would fit .. Thank you
So cool dude 😎, bring me a horse. I would love to go for that adventure! So cool. Awesome video
Awesome trip. Great video footage. Love the Wild West and its invaluable history.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
Thanks for this. In the middle 50’s - the late 60’ dad had a a really nicely colored Appy Mule. As a family, we rode all the time. His mule was the trail breaker. Now at a beat up 75 years old, those days are gone for me. Dad would be proud to know that one of his great grandsons is in college on a rodeo scholarship in two events and already has his pro apprentice license with the PRCA.
Thats great ... what events? Watch this video ua-cam.com/video/GpYh0QNpBeo/v-deo.html I team roped for a long time and calf roped as a kid .. Thanks
@@BrettVaughnB100 team roper and bulldogging.
Really good video. Best video on UA-cam.
Thanks for sharing.
Wow, thanks!!
Hey 1980 i was on a wagon train for 1100 miles, made me head teamster , storm hit us, -50 mph winds serious -0 weather, didn't loose one animal, our water buffalo froze THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME!, very beautiful country i remember every color we can see , on one mountain side, praise GOD!
Sounds like an adventure for sure ... thanks for watching
Oh and Praise God !
This is the 1st video of yours Ive seen and i enjoyed it alot! Cant get out and do stuff like i used to but really enjoy seeing what you get to do so thanks for bringing us along thru your videos!!! Liked and subscribed! Not sure how it popped up into my feed but I am glad it did!
Awesome! Thank you!
I can see the skull of an Indian carved into the stone when you first look inside. And thank you for the adventure.
Your welcome .. thanks
Welcome back Brett. Glad health wise doing this ride. I am glad did not run into Geronimo and his people. Beautiful land, that is one thing you or I would never know, your riding where he could have ridden that’s great, untouched no buildings, homes. His people not chasing you. Is this before Geronimo came to Arizona? Kenny/Kid Yuma
Yeah pretty sure I wouldn't want to meet them face to face lol .. Thanks Kenny
Enjoyed the video and the story. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the next one.
Glad you enjoyed it.. will be making more ..Thanks
another fantastic video; keep up the adventures and thank you for making them.
Thanks, will do! or will try lol
Always look forward to your videos. Love them. Thank you
Thank you !
Good news, you're better and to and about! Back in the early 70s I hauled cattle from Crockett Texas to Chandler Arizona, I always thought the country coming into Las Crusus was pretty. Often wondered what was in the canyons and mountains around there. Good video! Lord Bless you.
Thanks ... bet it looked different in the towns back then ..
Not as much traffic nor as many people.@@BrettVaughnB100
Very cool. Be careful out there brother. You may want to take a friend with you. You never know when trouble will find you. God bless.
Another good one! I really enjoyed seeing the country and hearing the stories. Great filming.
Thank you very much!
Good morning from Southeastern Cochise County, looks like a great day to explore that cave...God bless and you and your pups and Agnes stay safe!
I'm from Geronimo descendant.
How blessed you are.
I met his great grandson named after him in Sedona several summers ago and he shared family stories at Red Rock State Park with us. It was wonderful to honor Geronimo.
You took the long Scenic route. This is a cool place to hike to in the fall. Sad to see a lot of spray paint in and around the cave. Great video
Yeah I wanted to ride my mule there and was a little concerned about crossing the river .. still a lot of water .. and I have my hounds with me ... Thanks
Really appreciate you taking me on this adventure and the history provided! God bless you my brother.
My pleasure and thanks for coming along .. and God Bless !
This is the reason I watch other folks venture into caves; the same reason Agnes left the cave.
😊 I just subscribed with full bell. I admire an explorer who tries even though claustrophobia runs it's way.
lol
Agnes seems like a loving, and smart mule with a good attitude in life. I used to get along well with the Knott's Berry Farm mules and donkeys when they had the Calico Mule ride in the 1960s over by the Calico Mine ride.
That was really neat. I love all that history in your neck of the woods.
lol …..WHY is is so much more calming and soothing to hear a horse or mule eat or chew yet if my husband chews too loud or smacks his food I get super annoyed?! 😂🧐👀. When I’m feeling down or just need to relax I’m headed out to the pasture and listening to my best ever 4 legged friends. Always gets me back center. LOVE Agnes! She is one classy chick;). IMO you have the best travel partners
lol thanks
Thank you for this adventure, My heart is native and my blood a little, my great grand parents were from the res, always felt more comfortable living outdoors than in a wood box.
Me too .. Thanks
What cool history behind the cave. I'm with you 100% about feeling tight and closed in, I don't like tight closed in places lol. When I get me a mule I would love to take that ride on the trail with you. I don't care for going with a group of people but 1or 2 people incase something didn't go right to be able to help each other. I don't mind. I guess I'm just an intervert when it comes to people. I like people. I just don't want to hang out with them lol. Glad everything went well with your heart issue it's good to see another one of your videos. Thanks for showing us such cool places, take care
Your welcome .. I think we are a lot alike .. get that mule and let me know .. Thanks
Agnes is such a good mule, so quiet and easy. I had a hinny like that. One in a million! Lucky you!
She is a good one .. Thanks
Rough country respect to the Apache traveled these lands. Agnes just wants to go home reminds me when I was a kid we rent horses in those days they just put you on a horse you could go out no guide. The horse would walk really slow going away from the stables. Soon as you turned back towards the stables that horse would pick up the pace.
Yes Agnes can be the same .. yes those Apaches were tough for sure .. Thanks
Ah, the beautiful lower Colorado basin. Understand why you are here my friend. Nothing like the wind, that sweet purple cholla standing in the breeze. The pink sunset reflecting off the bright granite. From the grand canyon to tucumcari, this is the place. Not to mention nobody lives in New Mexico ! :D
edit: And oh my the yucca you have there, makes sense I guess it is a canyon, but i'm guessing the side of this hill is facing East and gets a lot of sun as well ? :p
Yucca has a lot of seeds, but is (in my opinion) the best fruit of the desert local to here. Problem is many of them are not viable, really hard to catch one at the right time in early winter.
One man, five animals.....all trusting him to care for them and following him. Love it!
We are a team .. Thank you!

About 20 years ago, I used to make those Indian flutes. Sure is a peaceful instrument.
It is .. I like it ... Thanks Missy
Just came across your channel. What a great adventure while I am working up here in the true north of Canada 🇨🇦. Thank you.
Im a Warm Springs Chiricahua Apache living in NM, and am a great great great grandson of Warm Springs Chiricahua Chief's Victorio, Mangas Coloradas, and Loco, and also a great great grandson of US Chiricahua Apache scouts Charles Martine Sr and Paul Guydelkon Sr. I have many stories of my people from the 3 Sisters mountains to Pinos Altos near Silver City where my daughter plays softball for WNMU.
We need to talk sometime .. Thanks
Pretty awesome video,Brett! All I could think was that those buffs looked like a good place for a cat to be hanging out!!
If you watch the video Starving LIon .. she was caught right below this
@@BrettVaughnB100 ok I’ve watched it but I didn’t realize it was the same area. I’ll have to watch it again.
NEVER endanger your animals like that. Animals have limits; they KNOW what they can & can't do & their God-given instinct knows when it's not safe for them. They're loyal & faithful & will go knee deep in battle with you. Please take care of Agnes & she'll be with you a long time. 🙏
lol ok
@BrettVaughnB100 "Thank you kindly, Sir, on behalf of Sweet Agnes.". 😁👍🙏🫏🐶🥰
