- South Yuba River Hiking and Swimming Adventure | Malakoff Diggins State Park, Hoyt’s Crossing and Purdon’s Crossing VLOG
Spontaneous adventure is a way of life for us. This weekend we decided to journey up to the South Yuba River State Park for an invigorating weekend of hot hikes and cool swims. South Yuba River State Park is a hidden gem in Northern California. It’s surrounded by serene nature, sweet spring blooms, and epic swimming spots. We spent time swimming and sunbathing at Hoyt’s Crossing and Purdon’s Crossing. Both spots offer cool clear water for swimming and epic boulders to sunbathe on.
We also spent time adventuring around the South Yuba Trail in Malakoff Diggins State Park. The trail offers lots of coniferous, cool shade, shelter from the hot sun and an abundance of Sweet Spring Wildflowers. We found some unique rock outcroppings, mossy streams, and listened to the serene river sounds while we hiked. The trail was completely empty and allowed us to connect fully with nature. The South Yuba River offered us sanctuary from bustling city life.

How are you celebrating Earth Month? 🌱
& What was the last spontaneous thing you did? 😉
What a beautiful and tranquil area to hike and the icy mountain river swim looked like so much fun! Watching this great video reminded me of how important it is to preserve places like this. I have been celebrating Earth month by helping to educate kids on the importance of caring for our Earth and everyday ways we can all contribute.
What a truly wonderful way to celebrate Earth Month.💓 🌎 💓 Thank you for sharing this with us! 💞 Education is such an important part of understanding impacts and taking responsibility for our actions and the planet! This comment made our day 💘 ✨
I’ve found gold in all
Of those spots 😀😀 great video
Wow! You have amazing luck! 🍀🌈 &Thank you!! 😊💖
What a incredibly beautiful video! I know I say this often, but I really enjoy seeing and getting education from your videos. Thank you so much! 😁❤️
Thank you so much for always supporting our content with so much positivity!😁 💖 Your comments always bring us so much joy! Do you have any nature outings planned for the summer? 🌲 🌊 ✨
The river looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing your adventure. For Earth Month I'm planning to continue eating vegan but make a conscious effort to avoid excess packaging.🌲🌻🐟
We are so happy you enjoyed coming along for this adventure! 💞 It's awesome that you are living an eco conscious life and trying to do more for the environment! 🌲 Thank you for sharing with us! 🌱
Hi. You too just meet. You two seem like new friends
Yes, the oldest new friends -always growing 💕
Nice video, I got some property up that way. So much history and beautiful nature. Fire belly newts are out now, and everything else! Haha
That must be such a nice escape 🌲✨ & it’s true. Learning about the history really enhances the experience. And haha the fire belly newts are the cutest. Thanks for sharing with us 💕 What’s your favourite hiking spot in the area?
@@WildWildWomen I like Chicago park power house upriver on either side of the split. Its in placer county off hwy80... Love bear valley off Bowman but the usual spots are crowded in summer. I still have places there between last chance mine Rd and the yuba that nobody goes too. Sierra buttes is amazing especially when there's still a little snow up on top. 8640' and a lookout tower there. I've hiked the buttes from both sides, packer lake and from the 4x4 trail by the dump. I'm working on documenting legends and myths of Nevada / Sierra county... Mostly mining legends , native legends and paranormal stuff. Got some very interesting stories. Be safe and encourage trash garbage pickup... People can be so messy! I would highly recommend you girls protect yourself. Bear spray at least if your not comfortable with firearms. There are felons , cartel members , and worse hiding out there. Greenhorn , youbet Rd, Tyler foot, North San Juan are pretty dangerous. I have law enforcement friends working that way and have heard accounts.
@@goldenratio5117 thanks for sharing with us! We were actually just in the Bear Valley area recently. We are adding Chicago park power house and Sierra buttes to our destinations list. 😊 Let us know when you have your documentations public, we 'd love to check them out. ✨ And thanks for looking out for us, we always appreciate the information and tips 💛 🌲
Thanks to your video I just visited this place for the first time and it was amazing...our state is not in a drought..you girls are very pretty btw
Thank you 😊 We are so happy our video inspired you to take a trip to South Yuba River State Park! 💜 Did you go hiking or just spend time by the water?
S. Yuba river is so beautiful. Thumbs up
Thank you 😊! It's such a magical place to visit! What's your favourite spot to spend time in nature?✨
@@WildWildWomen I had to think about it awhile, I'm going to say Fuller Lake and a stop at the Discovery Trail.
@@papaspage2001 Thank you for sharing with us! Fuller Lake looks gorgeous, we will be adding it to our list of spots to see ✨💞 Is there a specific on the American Discovery Trail you would recommend?
@@WildWildWomen The Discovery Trail is on the same road as Fuller Lake, it is a nature trail maintained by PG&E. I like the parts by the creek. I don't think it is part of the American Discovery Trail.
@@papaspage2001 It looks beautiful! ✨ Thank you for clarifying. We look forward to checking it out! 💞
I actually grew up going there a lot, hope you guys hiked back to the nude beach it’s beautiful. There’s natural water slides and little cliff jumps everywhere.
What a magical place to grow up! 💞 We didn't get a chance to check out any of the natural water slides, but will definitely do it on our next trip out there! Thank you for bringing this to our attention 💞
Do t know how I missed this video! I didn’t know that legend of the tree formations! That’s a cool story !! :)
Thank you for your thoughtful comment!💕 We love learning the local legends and facts . Where are you planning your next adventure ? 🌲 ✨
@@WildWildWomen I love that also! Im not sure exactly, this weekend im in a wedding in Tahoe and then ill be back packing Monday - Wednesday not sure were though might make it easy on myself and camp in desolation, other than that my calendar is pretty open!
@@WildWildWomen Been wanting to head to Redwood State Park or maybe camp in Lassen, IDK what do you girls have planned ?
@@ErnestormExplores That sounds incredible! Tahoe is so beautiful this time of year. Let us know what trails you are taking.✨ We have a pretty packed summer, but hopefully we can plan something in the Fall 😊 🌲✨
Hello Ladies, Wow! you are both stunning 😍 I am looking forward to seeing your next adventure. Stay safe out there.
Thank you!!💞💓💞 We are so happy you enjoyed our video!! Hope to see you in the comments on our next video.
If you want to make a great video then head up to the north Yuba this Saturday for the miners convention in between downieville 6 miles past on Highway 49 before Sierra City
Awesome video!
Thank you! ☺We are happy you enjoyed it. Where’s your favorite getaway in nature 🌲✨?
@@WildWildWomen I take my dog kayaking all over Wisconsin. It's a different kind of pretty up here.
@@JericoHerculesProspectingLLC That sounds beautiful 🌲🐶 Your pup must love it. We haven’t been to Wisconsin, but it’s on our list ✨
Lol lots of selfie faces…
Thank you!!
Muy buen video, gracias por compartir. Saludos desde Palma de Mallorca.
Gracias 🌞! We are so happy you enjoyed coming on this adventure with us! 🤗Where is your favorite spot for a swim and hike? ⛰️
@@WildWildWomen Realmente jamás había pensado en estas cuestiones, pero desde el mar hasta cualquier cuso de agua que tenga mas de medio metro de agua me viene bien. Para caminar como Hombre de mar, también cualquier lugar. Selva, monte, bosque, montaña, nieve, etc, etc. Soy medio extremo, ahora estoy en un lugar que puede decirse paradisiaco Lo disfruto, aunque extraño un poco el monte. bueno como siempre un saludo desde el otro lado del atlántico, en la mediterránea Isla de Mallorca en Palma.
@@miguelacuna1248 walking to the ocean is one of the most beautiful and relaxing experiences.Your island home looks like such an incredible place to live, I'm sure everyday is an adventure when you are surrounded by so much beauty! 🌊✨
@@WildWildWomen realmente no puedo discutir eso, es tal cual lo dices. Pero los humanos somos raros, queremos estar en todos lados o al menos ver una vez x lugar. La tierra es hermosa, gracias por sus repuestas, saludos desde el Mediterráneo.
Hi im new to your channel and I love your videos
💞💞💞 Thank you!! We so appreciate you and it makes us so happy to hear that you are enjoying our videos!! 💓
What trail was this exactly? How do I find it? I’d love to go the exact same place! Great video!!
Thank you, we are so happy you enjoyed our video😊! The South Yuba River is truly magic, we adventured around the South Yuba Trail in Malakoff Diggins State Park and went swimming at Hoyt’s Crossing and Purdon’s Crossing✨. Where's your favourite spot to adventure in the summer? 🌲
Love 💕 you 💕
😊😊💓
Thanks for the video, I used to dredge, pan and sluice for gold on the north and middle Forks of the Yuba River. There’s an old flume trail right near the crossing, did you ladies ever hike that one?
There are so many wonderful swimming holes, off of Oregon creek was one of my favorite. Never had to worry if you forgot your swimming suit. I worked for the construction company the built the balcony in Nevada City on Broad and N Pine in ‘87 or ‘88. Thanks for the memories.
We didn't check out that trail, but would love to check it out next time we are down there! And wow, that's so awesome! It must have been amazing to work around so much beautiful nature! 💞 Thanks for sharing, we really enjoyed reading about your experiences in the area!
@@WildWildWomen someone else’s video of it.

Magic land and beauty girls, it's a paradise!
Thank you! And so happy to hear you love this incredible spot. It's truly beautiful!💕
You neglected to mention that much of that lovely green ground cover you show on the trail and beside the river is poison oak. It thrives up here and can make your next week or so at home utter misery. Also you skipped giving a heads up about the rattlesnakes that share the ground. Watch where you step.
These are all great points, it's so important to respect nature and do your research! Thanks for taking the time to comment💓
How long is the trail to be in the water? Is dog allowed?
At Hoyt's Creek and Purdon's Crossing, you can climb down some dirt and rocks to the water from the parking lot. You can also chose to go further along the trails to less congested swimming areas.Dogs are allowed at both but they must be on leash. We hope you get a chance to take a swim there. Please let us know if you do! 😊🌲
Here are the links to both trails on All Trails for more information:

would be more interesting if there wasn't so many "selfie" shots
Thanks for letting us know :)
How is the road?
The drive down was beautiful and the roads were in good condition.🌲 Just be prepared for some traffic if you are leaving from the city💗
When was this visited?
We visited in early April! Are you planning a trip?
Extrraordinary adventure DEAR LADIES!!!⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘
Thank you!! It's a beautiful spot for adventuring! 💕
I've perfectly right- DEAR LADIES!!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
that small herby plant you stroke, was that sage?
Sage smells beautiful, but this was Lamb's Ear💓. Lamb's Ear is super soft and can be used to treat scrapes 🌱What are some of the most interesting plants you've found on your adventures?
bellisime
Thank you! 💞 This spot is magic ✨ Where is your favorite spot to go adventuring ? 🌲
I think the one on the left is prettier
two young girls hiking alone in the forest, what could possibly go wrong.....
Good questions! If you're not prepared things can go wrong, but luckily we always plan ahead of time for our adventures and have a lot of fun camping 🏕🤗
@@WildWildWomen please be careful and carry a firearm or pepper spray at minimum, there are some sick fvcks out there looking victims.... either that or take some martial arts classes in self defense and train train train. sadly, the world is a not so safe place anymore :(
Note to tourists: be respectful of forest and locals. Pack out your trash. I hate videos making this already blown out river from social media people like yourselves more popular. The locals are over the disrespectful tourists. Watch yourself or there will be a fight.
Also watch for lions, drowning in tunnels w no exits.
If u find a plant with a 3 lobed leaf rub it all over yourself for protection from mosquitos
Thank you for bringing up these points! It's so important to respect and care for nature. & Lol 😆 !!
