Awesome Production! Would you happen to be Karl Deckers brother? Your voice inflection sounds so similar!
I did this trip in 2022 with CanEx, loved reliving it with this video. So cool to see one of our guides, Thirsty, at the beginning.
Great video, but the sound track is a horror.
Exquisite
How many miles long is the hike? And elevation change? Thanks.
Love the visuals. Next time please lower volume of music. Had to keep lowering it and then raise to hear you talk. Thanks for posting this. Will do this run from Lee’s Ferry to Bright Angel Trail in May 2025
What a Goober! I’d go after you too!
I notice that someone said the company gets a transaction fee and the park gets ALL the rest of the money. Umm but I didn’t see any exact figures. So on say a 30$ campsite fee, does the private company get a couple of dollars and the park gets ALL the rest (28$)? Or does the company get 28$ and the park gets ALL the rest (2$)? I would just like to understand this BULLSHT a little better.
They should stock the area with aoudad and Persian Ibex.
I wanted to see a video on the Medano Pass and whether or not I'd be able to drive it in a F150 Crew cab, not sure if that's possible or not but man, I had a great time watching the video, it was excellent!
I recently learned that Hell Roaring Creek was named by my great great grandfather, Bill Doolin. While camping with some other cowboys (mid 1880s) next to that creek one night, they woke up to find their bedrolls wet and the creek running it's banks. Bill Doolin yelled "It's hell roaring high!" And that name stuck.
Everybody sleeps in the NF or BLM, which is why you see places like Movie Road in Lone Pine CA now "managed" Massive demand in a short window.
I never even try to stay in a national park campground. It is impossible. How about hire a host or several open the campground, no reservations, show up first come first served.
Extra props for the Big Lebowski reference, brother! 😂
There is no justification for access restrictions on back country hiking and camping. Serious outdoors people are not overcrowding those trails.
The over crowded park issue is a self solving problem. People will eventually avoid them and peak times.
For the super popular parks, issue US citizens a one time pass. After that, use the lotto system. No restrictions should ever apply to 90% of the parks for citizens.
UN Agenda 21, now 30. We will have to be satisfied with viewing the parks via virtual reality headsets while the .0001% enjoy unrestricted access.
I live at the base of a National Forest. I can't even drive up without a permit. Outrageous.
Yep...I wore Chacko's down the Subway a few years back...Huge mistake! Thanks for the Vid hoping to do this one in Sept. 24
hey! awesome video, do you remember how long it took you?
❤
Did you find yourself a señorita 😉😘🤓
I have permits to backpack this area in middle September this year. What time of year did you do this hike?
Wow, it’s heartening to see Vasey’s so improved last summer! In winter 2021 it was so reduced from its normal flow that it was sad to see. Hopefully this year’s snowpack will also yield a good flow from the spring.
Just hiked Angels Landing last week and it’s remarkable to watch your video to compare the difference in the weather conditions from March to April, and of course El Niño year versus this year which I guess is a standard year. Thanks for posting all of your hard earned content, I know that it’s not easy to place tripods and go back-and-forth on the trails just to make interesting b-roll. Gave your videos alike and have now subscribed to help support your channel.
14:27 was the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act renewed?
Watching from UK with my 11 year old looks so much fun
Sorry, can’t stand the ridiculous music. Gotta leave the video.
Background music is sooo annoying and unnecessary.
Welcome to my hometown and current location! Been here many times to the top and enjoy concerts and fairs. Thanks for your continued great content about our National Parks! 🇺🇸
Always wanted to do this and camp on the way down.. Wow what an adventure this was for you all!
Cowabunga😊
Hello, hello, hello, PJ. I’ve been very worried about you, and hoped rec.gov didn’t get you so down that you just quit YT. Your videos are exceptional! 😊. Thank you, thank you, thank you for another great tour.
The view with you sitting at the lookout looking out on Heart Lake looks like you're on top of the world. Though I bet the water was chilly it must have been awesome to sneak in the quick swim.
19:10 : Just Love it!!!
2 QUESTIONS HOW DID YOU GET THE ICE AND HOW COLS WAS THE BEER?
You're choice of music could be more pleasant to go with the flow of water.😊 Otherwise it was fabulous to watch..sooooo gels of your trip and the USA having such beautiful places 😘🇬🇧
Welcome back !
How long did it take to complete? I've read reviews of people saying they barely finished in 10 hours.
I drive professionally and drive across this area today and almost crap my pants. I have extreme acrophobia and it's the only thing to give me anxiety
Man, thought you got wacked by ol Booz Allen. Please keep the vids coming!
Even better in a canoe. Great video.
Love it!
Lov it
Missed ya PJ. No Dude you don't change the route. 😂😂 Now you got me humming Mexican music. 👍
So glad you’re back!
Hello Todd C. Glad to see you’re back & posting. I hope that all has been going well for you. I was beginning to wonder if Booz Allen Co had snatched you from a NP & had been holding you in an undisclosed location.
Oh Lord I wish I can join them😅badly
Happy to see a new vid upload and that you are doing well!
