If you're wondering why I'm posting, I'm still waiting for my surgery date to show up. So I've been able to do some mellow hikes here and there; gotta keep them basic so I don't tear the tendon completely off. But at least I'll have a few vids to post over the coming weeks while I'm down and out. Enjoy!
We must of been in Sedona around the same time. I always keep an eye out to see if I’ll spot you. Thank you for your content. I’m a solo female hiker and I watch your detailed trail videos before I do trails so I can feel safer and know what to expect. Thank you. Happy adventuring and good luck with your upcoming surgery.
I've heard they closed it indefinitely. Do you happen to know why? I actually thought it was pretty well known and my buddy who lives there didn't yell at me when I said we hiked it, so I apologize if I let some local secret out of the bag.
Those Wind Caves are phenomenally phenomenal and fantastically fantastic and beautifully beautiful and amazingly amazing and stunningly stunning and wonderfully wonderful Etcetera Etcetera Etcetera Etcetera.. From the UK where nothing like that exists..
I attempted Elote last time I was visiting Sedona/Arizona but darn if that place didn't have a line a block long out the door. But I did get to the Boyton-Subway in no small part because of your inspiring video.
Hopefully you and Tina won't get too spoiled by all of the delightful Arizona discoveries within a leisurely stroll of the parking lot! Good to "see" you again and as always, thanks for sharing!
Jerry. Good luck with your surgery. It's so great to see you guys out in the wild together. Great video. Can't wait for the next one. Thanks for what you do!
How fun. I've seen these on the map as the Raven Caves, but I haven't checked them out yet. We have some really neat geological features called the Wind Caves out here in Anza Borrego as well. Thanks for sharing!
Jerry, Glad to see your out enjoying the world. That's awesome!! These "Wind Tunnels" have been a local secret for many years. I lived above them for years and would go every day almost down to the creek below these. It's unfortunate that there isn't much left for locals to enjoy without tourons. I was told to never reveal these tunnels as it was a place to relax and hidden from mostly everyone. Damn you Jerry!!!! Lol.. Cool vid tho man.... Sucks
I thought they were actually fairly well known. Not to the extent of Devil's Bridge or Subway cave, but every time I've driven by (which has been a lot), the parking lot was full. Didn't mean to reveal any local secrets.
Love the video (really, ALL your videos but I have not yet commented). When you mentioned Mexican food I was hoping you would end up at Elote. What an amazing place! Thank you for allowing this former AZ resident live vicariously through your vids while I am now stuck in southern Ohio. Good luck on the surgery!
Oof. Ohio? I grew up in the midwest and don't miss it. My buddy actually works at Elote and got us in. Been wanting to take Tina for a while. It does not disappoint. And thanks! Going in tomorrow AM.
Jerry, I happy to see you and Tina out on a hike even if its a small one. I miss your adventures and I can’t wait for you to be healthy again busting out the hard stuff again.
Finally have surgery this week. Then I'll be out of comission for a while. I have a couple more videos I need to wrap up to hopefully keep them coming for a couple weeks, anyway. Then we'll see.
The curse of editing video of yourself is you get to see firsthand what an idiot you can sound like. So yeah.....I've got that going for me. Which is cool.
Just there Jan 11 through the 17th. Did not know about Raven Cave but another cool 10 minute hike and Holy Shiz area is Solidiers Pass. The caves are incredible and on my list for a return trip. The Dr Evil house is only accessible by a tram. He is a sculpture/artist and for anyone curious enough, there is a video of the building process of his house on UA-cam! Great vlog!
Soldiers Pass is one of my favorites in Sedona, been hiking that area since the 70s. Just did a trip to West Fork, another favorite. We go way past where everyone normally turns around, that’s when it gets interesting! Any hike in Sedona is a good hike! Happy Hiking! Jerry, hope your surgery goes well!
There's a technical rappelling route right through that cave at Soldier Pass. Need to do that one of these days. I heard that guy was an artist. It's quite a structure. Cannot imagine what it looks like on the inside.
@@JerryArizona I’ve slowed way down on rope work, but I’m glad I got to do a buttload of it over the years. Rappelling is fine, but my pacemaker let me know that using ascenders is not a great idea nowadays. Never even heard of the Dr Evil house, gotta look that up our next time in Sedona. The boys want to backpack West Fork again, they were eyeballing the spot you guys stayed at in one of your videos. Think that’s going to happen in the spring. Happy Hiking!
I'm sooo happy 😁 to see you guys back to nature and I hope the surgery goes well and heals quickly. But what a cool place, Jerry. Be safe out there, guys 🙏 .
Another very interesting - cool - stroll in the Sedona area. Thanks for sharing, but I really, really gotta' know, what was that delicious looking Mexican food you ordered? I haven't seen anything like it, but then I live in the NW, not the SW.
Hello from Brasil! There are hundreds of talking heads on UA-cam, but you are unique ! And yes when you are talking to us I do think of you as a friend talking to me.
Nice outing for a little sandstone spelunking👍 In an unrelated question was that GIANT basket of chips at the Elote cafe their standard size? Looked like a large bucket of popcorn 🍿
These are also known as Raven Caves, a.k.a. Sedona Caves. A fork on the trail before the cave takes you down to the creek, you’ll enjoy the way back up 🥵🥵
At least Tina is a beautiful host, even if she does not want to film and narrate your vids. Cool caves and I will look those up next time in Sedona. Thanks!
I didn't even know about it until someone posted it. I need to ask my friends who live there. But I know Sedona has made a lot of changes over the past few years (shuttles to trailheads, closing off dispersed parking areas, etc.) to try to deal with the large influx of people. Possibly closed this because it's close to a lot of houses and right in town with no parking? Not sure.
The caves are definitely beautiful but animals also like them, so be mindful of where you step and place your hands because there is a LOT of rat poop in there.
Yeah, it's kind of a running joke. But this one is just so easy, it doesn't need much explanation. I get it if you're new to the channel. Anyway, if you want to go, the trailhead coordinates are in the description.
It's a good thing you were able to hike them because the county just closed this trail permanently. From now on no one is allowed to either park at the trailhead or hike the trail to the caves/oak Creek.

Good to see that you're able to get some mellow hiking in while you're waiting.
For a mellow hike, this place is not too shabby. Surprised there's no native American graffiti.
🪱 🦂 🖐️ 🤪
These hikes are beautiful thank you
Ten lifetimes exploring the Southwest wouldn't be enough!
Just makes my heart soar to see you both. Glad to see you out and about a bit. Many thanks!

Next title: "We're hiking to a place on my GPS that should have some cool stuff to see!" The videos never disappoint. Never heard of the wind caves!
Jerry, keep smiling and posting. Many adventures you can still share and nice bird!
I'm from Sedona, and I still live here. This is one of the locals' favorite hikes. It is fairly easy to get to, and very beautiful.
I've heard they closed it indefinitely. Do you happen to know why? I actually thought it was pretty well known and my buddy who lives there didn't yell at me when I said we hiked it, so I apologize if I let some local secret out of the bag.
That's pretty amazing iv never been. Gonna make it on my list for sure. Thanks for sharing my friend.
😊
Awesomeness!!!
From a Sedona resident, learning more about the area!!!!
Those Wind Caves are phenomenally phenomenal and fantastically fantastic and beautifully beautiful and amazingly amazing and stunningly stunning and wonderfully wonderful Etcetera Etcetera Etcetera Etcetera..
From the UK where nothing like that exists..
Your vids make me look forward to a Monday
I will find this and live there, lol. That is really cool through the spaces you walked through. Thanks!
Thanks for the video Jerry, always enjoy your posts. Cheers...
Glad to see you're still getting out there. I've been to Sedona many times and didn't know about the caves. Thanks
Thank you 2, --- great to see your latest posting on the channel! Pleased to see Tina back in the mix and keeping you on the straight and narrow!
So glad to see y’all on a hike! And keeping things fun 🤗 Those caves are really cool. Let us know when the surgery date is,, I’m praying for you
Done Friday. It went well. Can’t hike or edit or really do anything right now but that’s just part of the process
That was very cool
Very, very cool. I wonder how many times we said 'cool'.....Too many, for sure.
I attempted Elote last time I was visiting Sedona/Arizona but darn if that place didn't have a line a block long out the door. But I did get to the Boyton-Subway in no small part because of your inspiring video.
Glad the video was helpful. Yeah, Elote is popular. Gotta make reservations way in advance. Absolutely worth it.
Hopefully you and Tina won't get too spoiled by all of the delightful Arizona discoveries within a leisurely stroll of the parking lot! Good to "see" you again and as always, thanks for sharing!
Jerry. Good luck with your surgery. It's so great to see you guys out in the wild together. Great video. Can't wait for the next one. Thanks for what you do!

Just searched them and they look really interesting.

@@JerryArizona the trail is..most people stop at the end. All good man. Next time go down to creek. Left at the dead tree you enter tunnels at.
Love the video (really, ALL your videos but I have not yet commented). When you mentioned Mexican food I was hoping you would end up at Elote. What an amazing place!

Your back. Miss your hikes. Love them

I really hope to get back to Sadona soon. Such a great place.
YESSS! Mexican Food. Finally. Thanks for sharing. Love it. Nice caves too! 😅
Going back to Sedona in October, will make sure to visit the Wind Caves!
So yeah, that was way cool! You guys are hilarious.. thank you
The curse of editing video of yourself is you get to see firsthand what an idiot you can sound like. So yeah.....I've got that going for me. Which is cool.
Thanks for sharing the adventures . Please don't tear off your arm!
That was my favorite Mexican restaurant in Sedona when I lived in AZ, hope it is still good for you and Tina.
Only my second (and Tina's first) time eating there. It's incredible. Their elote and mixed drinks are especially incredible.
Love your videos, you are just the best, thanks for sharing

Cool Stuff - thanks!!!

Down by Oak Creek was super mellow when I hiked this a couple of years ago. Drove by it, maybe 563 times before I decided to stop.😅
The Wind Caves - a Semi-informative video that leaves you wanting more!
Sometimes I like surprises. I just happen to forget that I also make videos and I should probably at least know where I'm going.
Love it...impromptu always makes it fun and original too! my wife and I are up in Sedona in 3 weeks, so we may check dem caves out!
@@JerryArizona
You two are always entertaining to watch. On to Mexican food !
Another very interesting - cool - stroll in the Sedona area. Thanks for sharing, but I really, really gotta' know, what was that delicious looking Mexican food you ordered? I haven't seen anything like it, but then I live in the NW, not the SW.
Can’t remember the exact dishes. That was Elote Cafe in Sedona. They have higher end Mexican Food and are awesome.
Ever great....thanks.
BEAUTIFUL 😍
Hello from Brasil! There are hundreds of talking heads on UA-cam, but you are unique !
And yes when you are talking to us I do think of you as a friend talking to me.
Ive been there a couple of times and it’s really impressive
Nice outing for a little sandstone spelunking👍 In an unrelated question was that GIANT basket of chips at the Elote cafe their standard size? Looked like a large bucket of popcorn 🍿
Standard size. And it tastes even better than it looks.
Great Looking Videos. What cam do you use?
Prayers for you too sir. 🙏
Thanks! This was shot mainly on GoPro 11, but I also use a Canon EOSR, iPhone and DJI Pocket 3.
These are also known as Raven Caves, a.k.a. Sedona Caves. A fork on the trail before the cave takes you down to the creek, you’ll enjoy the way back up 🥵🥵
I need to go back and see what the campground icon on my gps was all about. It looked really pretty down by the creek.
At least Tina is a beautiful host, even if she does not want to film and narrate your vids. Cool caves and I will look those up next time in Sedona. Thanks!
Sweet!
Absolutely made by sea water.
The finger made the shot!!!
Can't find any information on why thy closed the trail? Anyone know the reason?
I didn't even know about it until someone posted it. I need to ask my friends who live there. But I know Sedona has made a lot of changes over the past few years (shuttles to trailheads, closing off dispersed parking areas, etc.) to try to deal with the large influx of people. Possibly closed this because it's close to a lot of houses and right in town with no parking? Not sure.
You stopped walking ❤
The shoe was on the other foot, for sure.
Jerry! Where did you find the gps location? I was there 7 yrs ago and could not find the road when i was there in Febuary!!
You can probably just search it online. I typed "Raven Caves Sedona" into Google Earth and it brought it up. It's hard to see just driving by.
Mexican food review channel while you’re recuperating?
Haha! Maybe. I think I'll be hiking before I can edit though....
Great video and views as always! Try to limit the Mexican food to save up for more adventurous videos, passing a smile your way back to recovery.
thanks for your advice not to mess up the cave. I had all of my graffiti tools loaded and ready till you said please don't.
The trail says closed on google. Did you just go recently?
It wasn't very long ago. Then I saw comments and looked online and it says it's closed. Must be very recent.
There’s a really good reason why it’s called “Red Rock”
#Meltology
The caves are definitely beautiful but animals also like them, so be mindful of where you step and place your hands because there is a LOT of rat poop in there.
First time watching your video probably the last time try having info ready when you make a video
Yeah, it's kind of a running joke. But this one is just so easy, it doesn't need much explanation. I get it if you're new to the channel. Anyway, if you want to go, the trailhead coordinates are in the description.
It's a good thing you were able to hike them because the county just closed this trail permanently. From now on no one is allowed to either park at the trailhead or hike the trail to the caves/oak Creek.
Interesting. I looked after reading this comment and saw it said 'closed temporarily.'
