My son moved from Phoenix to Vegas. So now I’m learning NV hiking areas to visit. Do more! Also I think Tina should do a video from her perspective. The “other side” of Jerry Arizona 😂
My wife and I did those very same trails on our VOF visit, but at the visitors center I over heard an employee say her favorite trail was Mouse’s tank. So we drove back up the main road just a little ways, and I think it was our favorite in the end!
If you come in through the south entrance and go about a mile in, park to the side of the road and then walk across the road to the west to a wonder land of rocks to climb up, through, tunnel, and oh and adult play ground!! Go back, go back! And do that part too! We just went last October :-)
Jerry, thank you for continuing to provide outstanding videography. Never would have guessed Nevada has anything like Valley of Fire. You always choose such good music to go with your videos, and this one is no exception. And the outtakes of Tina and you just top off the entertainment value. Can't wait to visit the desert southwest again soon. Steve
You guys never disappoint. Love your sense of humor. Will be there in 2 weeks on our way to Mojave desert road. Thanks for the video perfect timing. Great video as always.
If you have time, check out Cathedral Gorge while you're there. Didn't get to make a video due to a little mishap, but it was a pretty cool looking place.
Love Valley of Fire! The last time I was there I was stuck in place by a herd of Big Horn Sheep…they were big!!! I had to wait an hour for them to pass through. Love this place! Thanks for the trip!
Fun video…l love Valley of Fire. One of the best collection of bang for your efforts short hikes anywhere. Love the drive through Lake Meade to enter the park from the east side. Good way to bypass the Vegas traffic.
I grew up in Las Vegas in the late 1960's-early 1970's. My family went there a few times before moving to Utah's Wasatch Front. The red sandstone has always been more "home" to me than the granite mountains here. It made such an impression on me that I remember it clearly more than 50 years later.
That is a great state park! Didn’t know about pretzel arch, have to find that next time we go. The Boondocking outside the park was fantastic, except for the hurricane force winds one night.
You should definitely check out Spirit Mountain National Monument close to Laughlin, NV. There are petroglyphs and an amazing drive around huge granite formations.
Thank you for capturing the beauty of the Valley of Fire. Love love, loved , it when I was there in late Sept of 2023 and camped with NOBODY there since it was still in the high 90's . Amazing campground...amazing red rocks in the " golden" hours. "Somehow" I seemed to find the fire wave at 6 am in spite of the area being closed due to people dying out there... maybe forgetting how hot it is at 2 pm in the middle of summer in the frickin desert ?
I've hiked in Valley of Fire probably 7 or 8 times and never knew about Pretzel Arch or the dozen or so other arches over by the East entrance! Just reserved a campsite for 3 nights in late November so I can go check them out🤘
Great shooting from you as always. Can you tell me approximately which parking area you left to see the Pretzel arch and about how far it was to get there? As a local I've been there many times so i am pretty familiar with the area, but this arch has eluded me. Thank you and safe travels.
Great video Jerry! 😎👍 Wasn’t Star Trek Generations filmed there? Picard vs Soran? I think there is even a place called Captain Kirk’s grave 😱 Planning on going there this year, maybe camp a night or two to see everything there is to see there 👍
What they don’t have Mexican food in Nevada? You always eat Mexican food after a hike. I think somebody is slacking. That was another really cool hike.
Just came back from VOF. So beautiful but hard to enjoy with the loud hoardes of people. Took my dogs and couldn’t even do 1 trail it was so crowded. It took me over 2 hours to find a parking spot and when I did I decided the trail was too busy to go. I mean elbow to elbow people. So we found a few low crowded areas to pull off and take pictures. It was a mix of anxiety and beauty but it’s too crowded to visit now. Looks like Disneyland. Very disappointing. I don’t know how these UA-camrs are filming spots without crowds.
Love Valley of Fire and seeing it…..we are bothered by your thumbnail…..I know you both are very conscious of leave no trace etc, but sorry it looks a lot like graffiti even though we know it is not…may send the wrong message to Taggers…..
Ooops. I meant to change that. Updated although it will probably take a bit for YT to change it. I love that effect and am keeping it for the wave, but I agree. It's a little too realistic.
Love Valley of Fire. You gotta experience a clear day and stay for a sunset and watch the rocks illuminate like pure gold! It’s amazing!
My son moved from Phoenix to Vegas. So now I’m learning NV hiking areas to visit. Do more! Also I think Tina should do a video from her perspective. The “other side” of Jerry Arizona 😂
I've been trying to get her to use a camera for years....finally just gave up. She did so well filming her solo attempt at Maroon Bells too....
It’s good to have you back Jerry. You were missed!
Love the out takes you guys do
Valley of Fire is a very cool place. So many people visit Las Vegas and have no idea what beautiful place is so close. Great video as usual.
I just discovered you channel and I’m blown away by your filming style and wonderful adventures. I’m addicted.
Thanks and welcome to the channel!

Didn't have time for that trail. Maybe on the next visit.
Thanks for your excellence, relevance and sense of humor
Valley of Fire is great. Incredible array of rock art! North shore drive from Boulder City is wonderful.

And people say Nevada is boring outside of Las Vegas. Looks like a great trip! Thanks for sharing this.

Hope tour shoulder's better.
It's getting there slowly but surely.

I'll put the GPS coordinates in the description.

Added to the list. Thanks for the recommendation!
I was waiting for R2D2 or C3PO. Y'all are a joy.😊
We were just there last Thursday. We enjoyed it and saw a young desert tortoise!
Love your channel brother. 👁️👍🔔

I like the honesty of your videos...both of you, two.
Valley of Fire was my first introduction to hiking out west. Great memories all these years later. Nicely captured as always!
Loved that duet :)
Amazing places and Amazing filming.
What an amazing State Park. Elephant rock was worth a shot hike.
Oh, good grief. Now you've put that song in my head and I can't get it out🤣
Thanks for taking us on the adventure. 🤙🏽🌺
And you’ve added yet another park to my list to visit. What a beautiful place!
One of my most favorite places ever and very dog friendly!
You two are a hi·lar·i·ous ( in a great way) adventure team.... Thanks for the vid, its on our list
Love it! And the Tina finger made my day!
Always wanted to visit VOF properly, maybe in Oct when I return to this region.
Awesome adventure. We did 5 days of hiking in the Valley of Fire last April. Our only thing was all the people.
Gorgeous countryside.
Great video! I'm heading there in the next few days to see it for myself.
I just love it there. ❤
NICE !!!

Right from the elephant rock parking lot. I'll put a gps coordinate for it in the description.
@@JerryArizona Thank you!

Good luck with that, you can spend 10 lifetimes there and not scratch the surface.
🏜️🤯✌️🖖
@@russward2612 LOL, yeah, I suspected that 😂 it’s just me and my out of reality plans 🙃
I love your videos. Great info. I can't wait to travel to some of these spots. Excellent production quality. (thanks for beeping out the bad words)
Love Washington. We nearly died hiking up to Colchuck Lake many years ago. One of my favorite trips.
😂😂😂 let's go!
You pronounced Nevada properly! \o/
Great videography as usual and very strange relationship especially for vlog
Cool place man. Better to visit there than Vegas if you are in the region.
I avoid Vegas like the plague.
What they don’t have Mexican food in Nevada? You always eat Mexican food after a hike. I think somebody is slacking. That was another really cool hike.
Crazy enough, we went to a Mexican place later that evening that served Mexican food......and sushi.
We did not have the courage to try the sushi.
Blah - sushi and refried beans. Some things just aren’t right.
Great, fine, cool but love the ending of Mexican food!
Driven past so many times. Really didn’t know what I was missing
Lol, Tina takes so much joy in trolling you.
I'd complain if I didn't earn it.
Crypto? What kind? Doge? Bitcoin?
*I kid I kid* ;)

🐘Looks so fragile.
