I loved that you checked in to make sure they had enough water to go with y’all!
Thanks... would hate to see someone who watches this video make the fatal mistake by ignoring that one!
FANTASTIC.......I did the exact adventure in June 2007 on a 100+ degree day. I needed at least another liter of water so I was dragging by the time I got back to the car. So glad you stuck with it to the Confluence. Buckskin Gulch is 15, impossible to turn around, miles. I have made at least 6 trips in from the northern trailhead. Two specific memories.....seeing that monster of a rock slab that slid into the river (you have it in the video) and marveling at the confluence and listening to a raven flying/swooshing back and forth reverberating off the walls.
That was wonderful to read, Harry! I'm sop glad we persevered past the confluence. Great to hear of your experiences/specific memories enjoyed!
I did that same hike a few years ago. When I got to Buckskin I went right and hiked a couple of miles to a big rock fall. If you go left at the confluence, Paria Canyon goes all the way to Lees Ferry. On my next trip out I want to hike Buckskin starting at the Wire Pass Trailhead. You should do some videos in the Escalante-Grand Staircase National Monument. It has more slot canyons than anyplace else on earth.
That was great stuff, Mike! Like you, I absolutely love that place. Would really enjoy doing that 3-4 days camping trip through Buckskin. So incredible!
This one is the real deal on western hikes.
Personally I am going to Toroweap diwn to lava falls but this is a big one.
Ok that’s NOW on my bucket list! Been in that area, but missed this! Great video and narration as always!! What a blessing and privilege to live in such a beautiful country! And you do a great job in bringing that out!
That was indeed a blessing for me to read, Gary! Have a super Thanksgiving!
Wow, just wow! Thanks for filming Randy. God bless, Andy
Appreciate that, Andy! Have a super Thanksgiving!
Just did part of buckskin gulch a couple months ago. I cant wait to do the whole hike! Thanks for the video
Wonderful to hear! Doing all of Buckskin on a 3-4 camping trip would be the dream! Thanks for the comment!
Love these hiking videos you are doing! Incredible footage Randy!! This is really well-edited! Great episode my friend!
Thanks, bother! Happy to see you guys are having a blast at GSMNP!
Great advice, looks like so much fun!
Thanks so mich, Maria!
WOW! Thanks for working so hard to take us to such a beautiful place!
That was really a fun day!
Wow absolutely beautiful !!! Incredible video. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Much appreciated! Enjoy your weekend!
I definitely got to get out of that way! So different than what we're used to. Looks absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing
Sure is, Nick! The full Buckskin Gulch hike would be a dream. Take care!
Slot canyon, flash floods, rattelsnakes & quicksand... you almost did me in right there! Love all of the dried mud - as a kid, I loved crunching the dried mud down. Buckskin Gulch looks amazing! WOW! Thanks for sharing this Randy!
Hey Heather - thanks so much! Loved your opening sentence! :) Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
What an amazing hike! Thanks for sharing your day with us. Take care!
Thanks, James!
Wow, your video is amazing. Thank you for taking us along. Have a great weekend.
Really appreciated! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Wow!!! You are making my hiking bucket list longer and longer.... lol! Amazing!
Love it, Ed! That Buckskin Gulch area is amazing!
Pastor Randy, I've enjoyed all your videos that I've seen! Keep up the excellent work! Southern Utah is fantastic!
Much appreciated! Have a blessed Sunday!
That great video thankfull
Really appreciate that, Carlos!
This canyon looks amazing. Never heard of this place. That is why I love TH-cam so much. These tips are good to know. This is a place you don’t want to get lost at. Stepping into this dry area was ASMR.
Thanks for the kind and thoughtful comment! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
WOW this is amazing!! cool you got those other two to go back and find the best stuff// just amazing looking at those walls around you thanks for taking us with you! / we missed you by about a month we were in UT july 26- aug1
Would have been a blessing to hike with both of you! Yes, got to go past the confluence and witness Buckskin Canyon. Amazing!
I love hiking in the desert- I’m glad it was dry or that would’ve been a really hard hike. So pretty back in there and fun to meet Phil and Monica!
That we really great! Hope they see this video!
Great video. The desert southwest is so beautiful. Another option is hiking into Buckskin Gulch from Wire Pass slot canyon to the west. You get into the narrow stuff sooner than if you start at Paria canyon. Thank you for making all your videos. I enjoy all of them.
Thanks for all that, Matt! Did WP a few years ago, but my time there was way too short. Like you suggestion - would love to get back. Have a super Thanksgiving!
Pretty cool hike through the Canyon. Wow sure looks dry and parched. I had to watch it a second time! Sure appreciate your video adventures!
Bless to read your comment, Mark! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
So beautiful ty for taking us along sledgehammered that like button stay safe awesome and blessed
Thanks, brother! All the best to you and the fam!
Such a cool video! Thanks so much for sharing😃
Really appreciate that Brooke! Have a super Thanksgiving!
I just came back from Buckskin Gulch, nice temperature there, not so dry, no flood either. Enjoyed so much there.
Neat to hear, Katharine! Wish we had more time to explore Buckskin. Glad to had a nice time!
What a cool place. The grandest feeling whilst in nature is that feeling of anticipation and wonder of what is around the next bend. The internal battle of should we start heading back now....probably should... but what if there is something grander around that next bend :) So great
That was beautiful, dear friend! So poetic and encouraging! Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
Randy, another great Southern Utah hike with Julie! I am most interested in those little caves and arches at 1:58 into the video. Amazing views! Excellent video, and I also was impressed by the foliage and trees past the confluence. THANK YOU for taking us along on this hike, this is such a joy to watch, especially since this is no longer something I can master, and you make me feel like I am hiking with a friend! . . . Mike
And it is always great to have you with us, Mike!
Another great video! I visited this slot canyon a little earlier on in June this year on a trip out west. Thing is, we were supposed to go to the Grand Canyon that day, but the wildfire started two days prior, so we ended up doing this instead (starting from the opposite direction). It is such a cool area. The smoke from the fire was dimming the sun and really made it a very surreal setting. Something I will never forget. Thank you for refreshing those memories.
Hey Nathan, so thankful the video brought back some fond memories for you! Enjoy reading about other's unique and personal experiences. My wife and I were in S. Utah for a week and this was one of the highlights of our trip too.
Awesome that you did a video there. I hiked in there alone in October 1995 (I left right for Arizona after for the OJ trial). There were no permits in those days and just maybe one or two signs at the parking lot which if I remember they just did that parking lot about that time. Very few people, I did come across more water back then and it was cold. Wonderful and unforgettable place to go.
Neat to read about your memories there, Steve! Would love to hit all of Buckskin for the 3-4 day camping trip. Take care!
Pretty cool how you included the people you met along the way👍🏼... nice vid Randy!
Thanks, Matt! Love meeting new folks, especially in the Parks where we already have a likemindedness. They guys were exceptional people. Enjoy your Thanksgiving!
That is a really long hike but it looked relatively flat luckily. I know most people usually camp out on this hike but that's awesome you guys did it in a day. It looked really beautiful and it was absolutely worth long trek. Thanks for sharing another wonderful adventure with us.
That camping excursion you referred to would have been incredible. Heard of folks spending 4 days in Buckskin gulch. Amazing!
Hey Randy, it's been a while Since I've been on TH-cam checking out your channel. Now I'm glad I came back, awesome video. definitely got to get there now👍🏼👊🏻
Hey Jerry, welcome back! Gotta love southern Utah!
Rode Paria Canyon a couple of years ago, the river had quite a bit of water, which was a definite pink color with silt. So fun to see it again on your hike!
Neat to hear, Robin and thanks for the kind words! Was surprised to see the place bone dry!
Wow, very cool, had never heard of it.
Thanks, Gary! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Love your Chanel 👍👍👍 Love the views it feels as if I was hiking along side of you. I hope you had a great 🦃Thanksgiving day 🦃🍗🥧. Keep the videos coming 👍
I'm grateful for your very kind words! Yeah, the main goal is to have others feel like they are joining us on the adventure! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving too!
Really cool
Thanks... really a memorable day! Have a blessed week!
That is beautiful. I didn’t even know that existed.
Yeah, such an amazing place! Thanks for watching!
We are heading here in June to do a video! Thank you so much for the information! Love your videos
Thanks so much! This is a special place... hope you have a great time!
wooo guyss... 31k subs hahah fantasticcccccc... oh myy i remember when we sort off start at the same subs and views.. your hard work pays off.. congrats
Hey, thank you! So hard to predict this TH-cam stuff. lol!
Subbed. Love your channel
Much appreciated! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Super cool hike! The views were worth the effort.
Thanks, Renee! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Randy & Julie: OK, now I'm officially jealous! This is one of the places in the 4 corners region I've always wanted to see. Your hike made me realize I could probably still do it; that canyon along with "The Wave" and the Toadstools would complete maybe complete my bucket list there. That certainly was a nice couple you teamed up with! Kudos & Thanks!
Wow, made it to a place you have yet to see, Bob! lol! It is so incredible - dream trip would be the 3-4 backpacking Buckskin. Hope to get the "toadstool" video up by the end of the year. Still dying to see "the wave" - like so many others! :)
Love your channel and all your videos! I binge watched your channel lol. I've been to Buckskin Gulch via Wire Pass, It. Is. Awesome! I wish we could've went to The Wave also. One day! Absolutely LOOOVE Utah, got married outside Zion. Although we currently live in OH, we are originally from your homestate of NJ. We miss NJ pizza and Pork Roll the most. We go to NP's etc. on our vacations, and we hope to meet you in our travels one day. God Bless!
That was a really wonderful comment to read, Dawn! Love hearing from fellow National Parks fans, especially ones that appreciate Utah and particularly ones (originally ) from NJ. So cool! All the best to you guys and hopefully we'll see ya on the trails! p.s. Eyes on The Wave as well!
Hey Randy and Julie....really awesome slot canyon and the people you met added to your video....We went to a much smaller slot canyon around Page, Arizona.....but it didn't compare.....Well done video and commentary....Will have to mark yours on our travel map for next road trip!!!!
This was a great stop - a little rugged, but easy to reach and hike! Hope you guys had wonderful Thanksgiving!
Glad I found your channel. Subscribed and follow 👍
Really encouraged to hear that! Welcome to the channel!
Great video and tips for hiking in the desert! It looks like it was a fun adventure, Randy and Julie! It was impressive how dry the ground was and how fast the quicksand was. Phil and Monica seem like great people, it is nice to make new friends along the way. We will need to visit it next time we are in the area.
Thanks! Definitely worth the stop. Must be incredible to spend the full 3-4 days hiking through Buckskin Gulch. Hope the family is doing well!
@@AmericasParks For sure! We are well and hope you and your loved ones are too :)
That quick sand would be so scary. Looks like you are in Tatooine. Yay you guys made it!!! What a view!!! I didn’t know you are a pastor!!!! Really cool.
Thanks! Yeah, was a school teacher until 1997 when I entered the ministry full-time. We are part of a great church on the New Jersey Shore. Take care!
You've sold me on this hike Randy! This is going toward the top of the "to see" list for sure. I was near this area several years ago, but just drove past and headed north to explore the Cottonwood Canyon area up to Kodachrome Basin. Here's hoping that someday you'll be able to make a trip to The Wave nearby there!
Great to hear, Andrew! The Wave is on the top of the bucket-list! Have a super Thanksgiving, brother!
Man! I've never seen it so dry in there!
Yeah, did a lot of research and wasn't expecting those conditions either! Thanks for joining us.
That quicksand would have been a surprise if you didn't know it was there! Hey! That guy has one of the backpacks that I sell! What an amazing looking place. I have never been to a slot canyon before. Glad you had a chance to meet up with some great people!
That was all well-said, Josh! They were a super couple, a real pleasure to spend a good portion of the hike with. Hope you have a great week!
Just AWESOME Randy & Julie 😳
We have been close to there on our 84 days road trip in 2018 but didn’t knew about this place . We wouldn’t do it for sure because Hélène had a sore knee thanks so much for showing us . I went on Google earth to exactly where it was ...very close to Arizona .
Have a great weekend
H&S 👩❤️👨🇨🇦🌈
You guys are the experts for great sites in southern Utah! :) Sure do love it out there! Have a super weekend and stay healthy, my friend!
@@AmericasParks
I don’t consider my self an expert at all Randy ...but I do love Utah! 😉👍
Gorgeous is right ! Wonderful hike together. Such a pretty location. Hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving ! :)
Thank you! Yeah, great Thanksgiving - just the immediate family this year. Hope yours was wonderful as well!
You need to get North Face sponsored. Good video
Love the suggestion! Waiting for their call! :)
Love all of the videos as we want to explore the National Parks starting next summer and the USA Lighthouses, please provide recommendations on how to start. Thanks -- Ivan
Hey Ivan, I'd do just what you are doing now - gather ideas from TH-cam videos and then using an atlas, find the places in one area that you wish to visit. Thinking of doing a video on this in the near future.
I love what you do! Have you visited Little Wild Horse Canyon? Utah. Its awesome!
Thanks so much, Jennifer! Still longing to get to that one. Utah is the best!
Hello America's Park's😊😊! Was this the planned trip to Rainbow Bridge that didn't happen because of covid? Paria Canyon looks so SPECTACULAR and only just a few people with new friendships. I had heard about Paria Canyon the last time I was in Page,AZ but instead went to...Rainbow Bridge National Monument😊😊, and the Narrows, my absolute favorite slot canyon in Zion National Park. After watching this video I will I will definitely get a permit and hike Paria Canyon, and you and family should finally take the boat ride to...Rainbow Bridge National Monument😊😊! Great video Randy, I really enjoyed it and looking forward to the next one.
Right on, Al! Apart from "The Narrows" video I already released, looking to begin hacking away at the footage from the "Rainbow Bridge" trip (maybe 7 videos?). That was supposed to be our final stop (until it was cancelled 2 days prior). Take care!
Y’all are more adventurous we did that lower Antelope slot canyon but what fun🤪👍
This was such an amazing canyon. Tough to beat Antelope, but for the "remoteness," Paria/Buckskin is top of the list.
Randy, I thought I'd find that it's puh-RYE-uh, but another video says it's puh-REE-uh, as you said, and is Paiute for "water that tastes salty". Very pretty place!!
Yeah, kept coming across conflicting pronunciations too so I just chose one and stayed consistent! Hope I guessed correctly! lol!
Been looking forward to seeing more of this trip Randy. Did not disappoint. Is this part of grand staircase? I have that on the radar next year hopefully
I have seen it advertised in Staircase, but most signs said Vermillion. Really easy to reach in any kind of automobile. Buckskin was the best part. Check out "Wire Pass" too.
Did this hike with 5 buddies. We continued another 30ish miles to wire pass where the Colorado river meets. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen I just couldn't believe my eyes around every bend. I'm having a hard time imagining what our next trip should be. I want there to be that same awe inspiring experience mixed with some fun stuff to goof off with. Any advice? we don't want to be around a lot of people and we're also climbers so anything in that realm would be welcomed. I'm thinking Iceland right now.
Great to hear you've experienced this gem, Jesse! You guys did the full adventure. I pretty much stay in the US, heard from many Iceland is incredible! Another must-see is the Grand Canyon. Also some great stuff up in Glacier NP. Backcountry in Yosemite?
I'll bet it would be just as good on a mountain bike !! Was the water at the end usable with a good filter? (Cold. Clear?)
Yeah, really think (when the river is not flowing) that a mountain bike would be ideal. Not much water at the end, but I think enough flow for filtering. Have a super Thanksgiving!
Beautiful scenery. Nice you made it to the confluence, Buckskin Gulch. The map looks like a 9mi hike to Buckskin Gulch, but then it's another 23 miles past Buckskin if you want to make it all the way to the Colorado river where water is flowing year round. All of that canyon terrain looked ridable on a mountain bike. Maybe need to walk the bike in the soft stuff a little, but mostly looks ridable with fat tires. Do they allow bicycles in the canyon? Did you see "no mountain bike" signs?
Great stuff, Tom! Not sure about the mountain bikes, but no signs noticed and when the river was dry, definitely doable imo. Sure would love to spend the 3-4 day hiking through Buckskin! Take care!
I was in Southern Utah a few weeks ago, a very beautiful place. We unfortunately had some rain and snow which made it difficult to travel on the dirt roads leading to the slot canyons. The BLM visitor center was advising no driving on most of the dirt roads. We tried anway, and got stuck in some deep sand and had to get towed out. We didn't get to hike the slot canyon like we were hoping, but we got to see lots of other great scenery such as the Grand Canyon North rim, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Pink Coral Sand Dunes, lake Powell, Glen Canyon Dam, and Horseshoe Bend. Lots of things to see in the area, next time I want to see a slot canyon
Oh no, sorry to hear about you guys getting stuck. Hope the $$ to get towed out wasn't too bad! Despite missing the slots - no doubt a solid line-up of destinations!
@@AmericasParks Not too bad $160 for the tow, better than digging ourselves out. I had 4WD so I was going down the road fine, but a vehicle in front of us got stuck and I got stuck when I had to stop and try turning around. It was still a great trip, can't wait to go back.
@@NATEG01 Yeah, I'd be thankful for $160! Have hear the horror stories in the thousands. Have a great Thanksgiving!
@@AmericasParks It was well worth it considering all the other things we got to see. And a fun story to tell. Happy Thanksgiving
Cool video. Nicely done. Question, you got to the trailhead on a 4-wheel drive?
Thanks so much! No, we got to the trailhead in our midsize rental car. It's a small rock/dirt road - short and fine for any automobile.
Cool brother, dig the drone shots too! I think a Mavic Mini should be in your future, light portable! That would be sooo sweet for a spot like that! Are bikes legal there? BLM yea . . .would make it so much easier together super deep. . . if it's dry anyway . . .
Hey Karl! Yeah, a few others have asked about bikes too. Didn't see anything that forbid them, although when that river is running the repeated crossed would make one less feasible. Just back on YT - got a notification for your upload. Hope to watch it tonight!
Wow Randy, that’s for taking us along on your journey. What a beautiful area, especially once you made it to the confluence with those towering canyon walls. Just plain spectacular! I don’t have much to add on this one. It’s an area I know about and have done some initial research, but it’s an area that I haven’t ventured. A definite add to my ever-growing list of places to explore. Did you try for Coyote Buttes North (The Wave) permits while you were in the area? I have tried almost every month for over three years with the online lottery to no avail. I know the odds are greatly increased for the in-person lottery . Guess a multi-day vacation stop in this area may be in-store for the future and hope for the best.
Yeah, I tried for the Wave 2 years ago and didn't succeed. Wow, every month for 3 years and nothing??? Knew it was tough, but... Like you, total bucket list hike! Enjoy your week, Michael!
@@AmericasParks yeah that online lottery is astoundingly competitive. Back when the lottery was run through the BLM website you could see how many entries were selected for a given day. Even during low-season and mid-week there was still 300-400 entries per day. During peak season, it could be several thousand entries per day. So your odds are low to begin with for the online lottery but they are lowered even further by the hard quota of 10 individuals. For all I know my entry could have been selected but my group size went over the 10 person limit and they had to move onto the next winner. If I never win it won’t be for lack of trying.
Fantastic hike! Was that a lone coyote at 3:56-3:58 or was it someone's pet?
Good catch, Mark! It was a solo hiker's dog that I believe had more pleasure hanging with us. lol!
15 Miles, how much water did you bring
Can't remember, but I remember we consumed all our water. A general (and generous) rule of thumb when hiking in the desert is a liter for every hour of hiking. We were probably were out for 6-7 hours.
Where did you start? Is a permit required?
Four points of entry: Wire Pass, White House, Buckskin Gulch, and Lees Ferry trailheads. We did White House. No permit was necessary back in 2020.
how many hours were you out on that hike?
We should have recorded our time, Shannon. Sorry! I do remember it was a full-day adventure.
😍👍
Thanks for watching, Angie!
omg there so so dry
Nothing the the USA desert!
A Di Đà Phật A Di Đà Phật
Thanks so much for watching the video!
I’ve always wanted to see Buckskin Gulch. Excellent footage as always. I hope you will check out my new Great Basin video tomorrow.
Thanks, Eric! Yeah, will need to take a look. We did Great Basin too on this trip - hope to have that video up in a few weeks.
@@AmericasParks I have now uploaded the Great Basin video. Thank your for being a fan of my work.
Hummmmmm.... at minute 3:58 at top left middle some animal ran across. Do you remember what it was?
Yeah, good catch! It was a solo hiker's dog that enjoyed hanging with us for a portion of the hike! lol!
@@AmericasParks Hey Randy, we are watching your services this morning. I would like to have your chart you made on the end times. Just take a screenshot and email to us if and when you have time.

Watching this morning 11/22/2020
Oh, you should have gone in from Wire Pass....WAY cooler.
Yeah, did that one a few years back... but agree a shorter and more beautiful canyon. Looking forward to getting back. Take care!
@@AmericasParks It's actually longer. 16 miles to the confluence
@@benfrihauf2273 Thanks, Ben. I must have never made it to what I thought was the confluence. lol! Take care!
