      That is awesome! 😊. How old is your son? My daughter just turned 5 and she’s getting where she will go exploring with me a lot more. It’s good to take them out like that. Get them away from internet and the fake world so many people live in. Glad you enjoyed the video!

      Appreciate it brother! I absolutely love making these videos. I used to have an interest in video games a little bit growing up but I’ve never been the type to stay inside or sit still for very long. So being out and trying to get good shots and then bringing it all back home to edit in my own way kind of has that same feeling of competition in a sense and it just drives me for some reason. Glad you enjoy my videos! It means the world to me

    This video was nothing short of Epic Cody. From the intro to the hike then followed by the descent you had me captivated.
    It wasn’t a long hike only half and hour ( that’s because you had to almost walk it twice taking camera shots if you hiking right 😆😆)
    Those shoes are made for hiking hey 😂😂😂
    The tower the pictures and all the trees that have ejected their leaves for fall was just stunning.

      Hey thank you 🙏. Glad you enjoyed. I try to leave all info bits in the description of the video so You’ll have a better understanding of the place. Believe it or not I’m kinda camera shy so it’s a lot for me to even do that 😂. I try to capture the beauty around the best I know how. If you get a chance to take the family there then you have to do it. It’s a beautiful spot. The hike in is about a mile but it is relatively easy and there are benches for breaks along the way. This was a fire lookout back in the day and the forest service has preserved it for people to enjoy. It is now mainly used as a bird watching station and is open to anyone who wants to come admire its views. Any other questions you have about the place I would be glad to answer. Thanks for checking it out!
