Hey, my name is Dilon Ortiz and i was the person you interviewed wearing the blue shirt. Thank you so much for visiting Bandelier National Monument. it was really great being able to speak to you about our culture and to share our knowledge with you. I am so humbled to have been in your video explaining what work we do and how important all of that is to us. and how much we want everyone to come out and enjoy the beautiful trails Bandelier has to offer. but again, thank you for coming out to visit and all the other national parks as well. please come back soon!!
Now that was a great comment, Dilon, and real blessing to read this evening! Thank you! And thank you for the time you took to speak with me and my daughter. It was clear you are a kind man with a big heart. Look forward to getting the full Bandelier video out in January or February. We really have many fond memories of our trip to New Mexico. All the best, my friend!
What an awesome video!!! Sounds like you and your daughter had a ton of fun. That’s great to see. This Veteran’s Day I’m going to Great Smoky Mountains National Park to make my 4th trip on the crown jewel hike in the park, Mt. LeConte (via Alum Cave Trail). Although this time will be my 1st time staying overnight at the lodge that sits at the top of the mountain. I’m excited to use my GoPro Max for some footage. Thanks for inspiring me and many others to enjoy the national parks, make memories, and preserve them for us and our families.
Amen! Really happy to hear that, Justin! So thankful we have made this decision/investment a long time ago. They are probably our best memories (as you rightly said) in our family! Have a great upcoming trip - sounds like a good one you have lined up!
@@AmericasParks You need to come check out North East Florida, so many cool forts! 3 of them are National Parks. Plenty of hiking/biking/Kayaking to be had.
@@thefactualconservative9922 I know! I've been to a couple of them, but no representation on the channel (went there back in 2014 and wasn't shooting much video). Could also use some of that warm weather - going below freezing tonight in NJ! :(
Love reading comments like that! Very thankful you found it helpful. Without a doubt, New Mexico is among the most under-appreciated states for its beautiful National Sites!
You and my dad would be best friends I swear. You remind me so much of him it’s uncanny. We do a father-daughter backpacking trip each year and they are some of my fondest memories. It’s my dream to take my future children on trips like this. Showing them the beauty of our world.
You dad much be a great guy! lol! That was really wonderful to read, Kasandra! This was my vision with my three daughters too and haven't regretted any of it. Nice to hear of your desire to pass the legacy down to your children as well!
Americas Parks I truly believe that our country’s parks and monuments are our greatest inheritance and should be loved, respected, and preserved. They can do more for the soul and mind than any church or school.
GOALS AF when I have my babies. I am an avid camper and national park visitor like you and hope to see every single one. This video made me really teary eyed. So precious the memories with your daughter. Love you guys! Sending my love from Cali!!!
I definitely regret not discovering hiking and our National Parks while my children were younger. Your kids will undoubtably have great memories with their dad. Growing up in PA and NJ, my idea of vacations was the Jersey shore or Disney.
That is a great comment, because this is something my wife and I often observe. People in NJ rarely leave the state. If they do it's Disney (like you said), the Poconos or possible OBX- and that's it! Glad I "broke tradition" and stumbled across the Parks. Appreciate the reminder about the memories... Some of the best we have! Enjoy your weekend!
Hi guys, loving the preview of New Mexico, looks quite stunning, looking forward to seeing this series in full! Loved the old footage too btw, marvellous memories😎👍💕
Randy, what a great intro to your New Mexico tour with Kayla. I watched many of these videos this summer, but coming back today to enjoy again and leave a comment or two on the ones I have not yet. Thank you to Kayla for some of the camera work and commentary. We plan to visit New Mexico soon and see some of these places. I like these summary videos you have edited, and especially all the father/daughter moments (so much fun to watch Kayla grow) so much that I treasure with our daughter. THANK YOU FOR SHARING, . . . Mike
Hey Randy! I've never really done any hiking up a New Mexico and I liked seeing all these parks that you visited. I was glad to hear at the end that you're gonna do individual videos for each park so I can see them more in depth. I'm glad you made more memories with your daughter and I look forward to see more New Mexico videos.
Thanks again, Eric! Yeah, NM is one of those states most (like me) seem to avoid! Surely doesn't get the same love as the other "4 corner states." Take care, my friend!
Im very inspired by your work and dreams to visit the national parks, your videos r very entertaining. The one question I have for you is, what can I do as a twenty year old to travel as much as you? Or how are you able to travel so much? Bc I want to visit every National park in the u.s, any words of advice or words of wisdom to do what you are doing is much appreciated. Thanks and God bless!!!
God bless you, brother! If you are 20 and single you have the advantage of more flexibility with your time. As for me, I basically use all my vacation days and then pack in as much as I can on each trip. I fly primarily on "miles" (have an airlines credit card), eat cheap on the road and camp (can't afford hotels). Add a car rental in there with gas and just about all your expenses will be covered. Also, the National Park Pass is $80/year.
Wow, what a great selection of parks to visit. You went to quite a few - more than I even knew were even there! Looks like a fantastic series of trips coming up.
Great video. I’ve been to Bandelier before and loved the park. Above the ladder are the highlands and there is a trail there. The route was used by Indians before and so much so there is a grove cut into the rock from who knows how many thousands of people have walked there through the ages. It is quite a sight and there are petroglyphs along the way as well with excellent views.
Neat to hear, Steve! I hope to get the full Bandelier video up next month. Wish we had more time to get "off the path" and explore some of the remote sites as you mentioned. Take care!
We really liked it out there. Most seem to give little attention to the NM Parks, and by the responses to my videos (as compared to UT, CA and AZ) they are simply not very appreciated.
Superb memories that will never die but man, I needed my sunglasses for all that yellow gear you were wearing, when caving. I bet that water was cold in the waterfall and I loved all the old photos interlinked in this video, great memories indeed, cheers Alan
So special, my friend! I'm the first to admit that planning and executing these trips is hard work - but the memories are at times even more special than the actual enjoyment of the trip itself. Have a super week...
So cute! I hope you guys loved NM! I feel like it's a little hidden gem in the US. Please tell me you had red and green chile, and a bunch of sopapillas!
Thanks for the hospitality, Aaron! New Mexico is so underrated and under-appreciated... and clearly I fulfilled that in not treated myself to some of the best cuisines! lol!
Hey Andy, yeah, I think Valles is a rather new addition. I didn't realize the massive amount of land that was included in this preserve. Appreciate the comment! Enjoy your week...
@@AmericasParks I think I discovered their Instagram somehow. It looks incredibly beautiful. Not what I usually think about New Mexico. Thanks again for the video.
LOVE our neighbor state! Just like AZ, there are wonders around every corner. Great compilation of fun times and great places. Looking forward to the individual park videos.
Man,this is going to be a good series of clips.super high on my list of parks to do in the future. Pretty excited about my line up for next year if all goes as planned. Only a few weeks left till the annual fall trip.
Sweet, Robert! Sorry about the Chargers - just watched the end of the game. Hope you can get out to NM. There are still about 3 Parks I need to hit right on the NM/CO border in NM. Nice to have some good trips to look forward to!
@@AmericasParks Yep....Maybe sneak across if you end of deciding on Colorado this next year...I wanted to sneak in Aztec Ruins back in May when we were all out there but couldn't due to time. It was actually fairly close to Cortez Co. man..I hate being a Charger fan sometimes. Pain full. That 4 corners area is So loaded! Also nearby is Chimney Rock. I was just looking over a map of New
Much appreciated, Wesley! They were kind of hard to find, a local suggestion when we were there. I know they were outside of Valles Caldera near the town of Jimenez, NM. I know the waterfall was just off the road in that area (Soda Dam Hot Springs). Believe I have some more info in this video: ua-cam.com/video/JIpeChB4Db0/v-deo.html
Great job. You keep adding spots to my bucket list. Do you do any snow traveling? I took my 10 year old to ski in Colorado. Keystone had a sleigh ride dinner to white river national forest. Highly recommend that if you ski.
Oh Mike, that must have been incredible! We really have not done a lot of winter trips, primarily due to the need for hotels. However, would love to sneak one in one of these day. So many of these Parks are beautiful under a blanket of snow. Thanks for the "heads-up" and happy to hear of the time you are spending with your daughter!
Oh wow - love the old footage! So fun - all good except squeezing through that cave, maybe climbing that one ladder, the 105 degrees and quite possibly the Taco Bell 😂 🤣 The rest looks fabulous and am really looking forward to seeing all of the detailed videos! 👍
Hey, thanks so much, George! Yes, we were really surprised by NM - so under-appreciated and often ignored. And yes, went to Carlsbad back in 2018 over Spring Break when we hit lower NM and S. Texas (Big Bend was incredible)! Enjoy your weekend!
Just clicked on your video and it says 50 more minutes......Drum roll please... will be back after Dinner Randy...very unique way to present it and it's on my Birthday too!!!
@@AmericasParks Well....very nicely done with Kayla when she was younger and then now!!!Nice touch....Have been in New Mexico and didn't know of many of those National Monuments....keep up the good work!!!
Americas Parks WoW ! I feel that we are gonna love this series . You are awesome you reflect the joy of living whit your nice family Can’t wait ...when is is first one ? ATB Hélène et Serge 💑
@@SergeCousineau Thanks, my friend! That means a lot to me! Hope to release one video each week - looking at maybe 8-9 individual videos. Hope to get the "caving" one out first.
Because of YOU, my dear Randy & family- I now have the NP bug!! Heading to Zion in May for the infamous Angels Landing- after watching you suffer up that sucker - yikes!! I’m a 55 year old weakling 😂💪🏻🧗🏼♀️
I feel like I'm in trouble! lol! Wow, heading out to Zion to conquer Angel's Landing. Good for you!!! Take it slow, avoid the crowds, wear comfortable shoes with a good grip, bring water and hold those chains!
haha! Hard to overcome the latter, but they did improve with time! Kayla was 11 went we went on our first trip (as seen in this video). Each child is different, but couldn't imagine going much younger - safety, duration of the time away from mom and the child's general interest. Have a great weekend, Sam!
I LOVE MOUNTAINEERING/ IF I CAN GET ENOUGH LOANS I WANT TO BUILD A MOUNTAIN IN THE MIDWEST THAT IS SEVEN HUNDRED FEET TALLER THAN EVEREST. 6-15,000 DOLLARS A CLIMB.
