Hi Russ. Thanks for the comment. I love your support :)

@@magnapearl9506 it is very hot and dry. I do love the desert.

@@Mike-ef7xe thanks Mike.

@rcjagdish3627 thank you for this kind comment. And thank you for watching our video. I hope you will watch my other videos as well. I do love the history of the Southwest too.

@AnnKellysphilippineAdventures Hello. Thank you for subscribing and commenting. That means a lot to me. And wow how is the Phillipines? My son-in-law speaks tagalong. I will for sure visit your page. Thanks again.

@alularussell778 awwwhhh thanks for watching this video. It really was like stipping into another world. I can't lie though the mountain lion kinda scared me. We saw tracks a few other times, and with them being that fresh in sand means he was probably close. Tracks in sand dont last long.

Oh hi Russ. 😁

At which point did you turn it off

@user-hh9pe7xq2q ahhhhwwww thank you for your kind comment. This means so much to me. I am so sad the toilet bowl collaspe yesterday. I was glad to capture that feature at about 47 mins into this video. Now I wish I would have been brave enough to jump through it at the time. Thanks again.

Haha no kidding right? We are from St. George Utah and we are pretty use to 105 plus degrees. But yeah I know the heat was a bit rough on us too. Glad you watched my video. We love this country.

Hi Mountain Girl. I lived in Laurel Montana for about 13 years. I love Montana. So cool you are learning about the history of this trail and the people who built and traveled it. I am so passionate about this topic and I will love to share a few more things with you. The following video is super old, but it is so well done and very accurate and best of all it is filmed on location so you get a great idea of the actual event. th-cam.com/video/hdcYZml6-d0/w-d-xo.html Here is another great youtube to watch th-cam.com/video/u9qKep6WJwg/w-d-xo.html And one last video is one from my channel and shows our experience going down the actual Hole in the Rock that is at the Colorado river (now lake Powell) crossing. I still cry to watch this video knowing what these people went through at this particular spot on the trail. th-cam.com/video/OOk0MBV6_8c/w-d-xo.html I hope this helps and I will love to hear any further thoughts you have. Also one last bit of information, Gerald Lund wrote a book called "Undaunted" and he does an amazing job bringing this whole part of history into light through a historical fiction point of view. Before he wrote the book, he traveled and visited the entire trail and read all the pioneer journals he could. It is a great read :) Thanks again.

@travispritchard7839 thank you for watching. Stay tuned... I have a rew more up my sleeve haha. Working on them now.

@TDH8988 my husband will love you comment haha. Thanks for watching.

@conmckfly thank you and thank you for watching.

@@melanienielsen I want to add that your kids are getting a fabulous adventure and education

@conmckfly thank you. Sometimes I think we develop a very myopic view of life based on our own experiences. I think it is so wonderful to experience how people can live in such different times and experiences and how we can learn from them through the history that they have left for us.

@@gregs2466 thanks so much for watching.

@youtubevideoseoexpert0 I am always happy to learn and improve, but i have to be honest, I am not making or posting these for fame a glory. I love photography/videography and capturing that perfect moment in the perfect light and angle. I just enjoy sharing. I love to watch other people's work, and I am happy to share mine as well. Thanks so much for watching.

@@melanienielsen thank for your reply. 01. The first problem with your channel is: Your TH-cam video has no SEO score, no channel tags, and no video tags. 02. Each of your videos has a problem with the title and description. 03. The thumbnails in your video are not that interesting. I will help you create thumbnails. And there are many more problems in your channel. I am ready to solve all kinds of problems of your channel from today. Thank you!

@debrawilson3840 yeah me too, honestly. With these ruins, people are only allowed into that initial door but not any of the rooms behind. It is an honor system for sure. Some of these more popular sites are maintained (and repaired/restored) so that the public can go inside. We have been in another site in this area that has a perfectly preserved and repaired kiva that the public is allowed into. It is maintained and repaired by the native Americans and is done so with materials from the canyon just as the ancients used. It is pretty cool to experience these places that allow access. Thanks for watching my video.

@montanasbigsky it was so cool. This was just the beginning. On day 7 we hiked into a canyon that only had 8 previous people in since the beginning of the year. I am excited to document that one. These video takes so much work to put together and edit haha.

@@ZackJensen-j5z awwwhhh thanks for watching my video. We just made this trip again with our kids. This was only my second time. It was such a beautiful trip again. Beautiful lake.

@eprohoda thank you. This is such amazing beautiful country we explored. In all we hiked about 40 miles. Stay tuned for the next chapter of this trip.

@@JosiahNielsen thanks josiah. What a great time we had. Thanks for being our hiking buddy.

@julioalvidrez4579 thank you so much. This really means a lot to me. I hope you will watch my other videos. I love to share this beautiful world and as a family we do explore some very remote places. Thanks again.

@@KennethSteel-td9jd Hi Kenneth. What you are seeing is the reflection of the sun bouncing off the water and reflecting back up on the canyon wall. It is a really cool effect that only happens at certain times of the day. Thanks for watching my video. 🙂

I love the quiet of the canyons. The beauty is just breathtaking. Thank you so much for watching. I love making these videos. We love adventure. I hope you will watch some of my other videos as well.

It really was so beautiful. I hadn't been on many cruises at this time and whenever I thought of a cruise, I envisioned white beaches and aqua clear waters and hot sun, so when my husband's parents announced an Alaskan cruise my heart was kinda sad. I just didn't know what to expect and living in Montana for 13 years, I just wanted to get away from the cold. I was so wrong. The entire trio took my breath away. So grateful for the experience.

I hope you have a blast. I live about 2.5 hours away and we are hoping to go again this summer. We won't get away alone this time though. We have too many kids begging to go. Haha. Thanks for watching my video.

Awwwhhhh thank you for watching this and I really appreciate your comment. I love making these videos. It is so easy to forget these beautiful moments and I want my family to always remember.

I can't wait to go back haha. Thank you for watching my video.

Thank you for watching and commenting.

You are the best. Thank you for watching and thank you for your comment :)
