That was a HUGE piece of pottery! Thank you for treating it with respect. That's what I love about your adventures: genuine, educational, and respectful! Great video!
Thanks for another great video! I love your enthusiasm when you reached the caves! Made me chuckle! The first large cave could have hold several families! Finding the ancient corn was most likely eaten by the families in those cave. Great find! Thanks for a great video! Thanks to dad and buddy! Stay safe out there!
Love to that beautiful scenery out there. It totallly different than my country (Finland). Enjoy to c ur videos and finds. And how u respect those artifacts and finds in there❤ Im oldish and bit sick so i could d never go these kind of places so it is so great to c videos of them🥰
Turns out to be beyond interesting young sir! Absolutely incredible. Thanks for these in depth explorations. Do you think they are cavates?😊 My favorite part, Buddy ignoring the camera.
One of your most interesting films. I always imagine camping out in one of those caves; cooking over a campfire and looking out over a glorious night sky. Of course, that's probably not responsible behavior, but is something to dream about.❤❤
Thank you that's an amazing area and so beautiful. Every little object and artifact you find is a piece of the puzzle. I wonder where these people went.,,,and Merry Christmas and blessings to you and yours! 🎄⛄
Wow! I lived in Mesquite, Nevada for 3 yrs and never knew that the seed pods were edible. I don't remember even noticing the pods on Mesquite trees. I've seen them on other species of trees and always wondered if those were edible. Probably one would want to eat them when they're young in development and not from the ground.
Thank you very much. Yes, mesquite is definitely good food source. Now they even sell mesquite flour you can buy. Native people would have used dried mesquite beans and ground them up into powder. They help to regulate blood sugar, similar to prickly pear. The mesquite sap is also used for pottery. This is good information www.archaeologysouthwest.org/2020/06/12/a-brief-cultural-history-of-mesquite/
Oh wow, this was such a great adventure! I really enjoyed the variety of things you showed here, from the amazing landscape, to caves, to stacked rocks, to artifacts, and of course, Buddy dog. My favorite part is how you notice all the little details, like the old mortar around rocks and small artifacts. Just incredible 👏
I came for the hike & all your discoveries & stayed for the music. Who was the artist? Could you give them a shoutout? I'm impressed with your video & editing skills. Well done!
The branches on that sycamore tree were massively thick. Reminded me of a muscle-bound bouncer. Wonder how old it was? Possibly hundreds of years. Google says 200-400 years in the wild. You caught it when the yellow leaves cast a heavenly golden glow. Would like to see that same tree in the early summer when all the leaves are new and green. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, yes, they can get so huge! I believe maybe many hundreds of years old. There are native dwellings in Arizona that still have in tact Arizona sycamore beams for support and roofs. They were so important to native people. They are also called ghost trees here, because they look like white ghosts.
Always suprises me that they lived in dangerous and hard to get places yet they must have been pretty clumsy with how much broken pottery there is everywhere! 😂
Thank you. Yes, broken pottery everywhere but probably because when people left these dwellings, the pottery was left behind and so much of it got broken by elements.
One of my favourite things about your videos is the wide variety of terrain you visit. I mean, sure, it’s all hills, mesas, mountains, but with so many different ages and kinds of rocks, so many different kinds of weathering and erosion, so many colors. What’s the farthest from home you’ve travelled for any of these videos. They all seem like day trips.
About 7 hours when we went to New Mexico for a couple days. But other then that, all of my videos have been day trips within a 3 to 4 hour drive. Thank you!
Was very happy to see you not alone. Great job. Love these kind of video. Till next time. Hope you are not offended but you look about 12 but a good thing you will like it as you age. Be careful till next time.
I hope you enjoy this adventure in this unique and beautiful area. Please let me know what your favorite part was.

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind comments!
Great video! Really well put together. Big fan of your channel.
Thank you!
Very enjoyable. Thanks.
Thank you!
Sweet dog by the way. Just hold your findings, knowledge and your own intrest and sharing it in high regard. Thanks
Thank you very much.
You are so lucky to be able to see such beauty.
Thank you! Yes it is very beautiful.
Beautiful views! How interesting. What a place to live. I wonder if caves were natural or if people made them?
Thank you! Maybe some natural and a little enhanced by people?

Thank you very much! Buddy does not like the camera at all. Yes, most likely cavates.
My favorite part was in between the beginning and the end!
Haha, thank you!
One of your most interesting films. I always imagine camping out in one of those caves; cooking over a campfire and looking out over a glorious night sky. Of course, that's probably not responsible behavior, but is something to dream about.❤❤
Thank you so much! Yes, it must have looked nice with all the fires in the caves.
What interesting caves with all the cubby holes!
Yes, so many compartments, would be great for food storage.
Thank you that's an amazing area and so beautiful. Every little object and artifact you find is a piece of the puzzle. I wonder where these people went.,,,and Merry Christmas and blessings to you and yours! 🎄⛄
Yes, it is like putting puzzle pieces together. Thank you!
May you never lose your sense of adventure, curiosity and eyes full of wonder. That way you will forever stay young
Thank you!

Thank you very much! I use Epidemic Sound for music. And this was Awakening Wilderness song by Tellsonic.
👍 cool parents
Yes! Thank you!

My favourite part was the slate tool at the end. I've never seen one of those.
Thank you. Yes, totally. This was the first time I saw one like that too.
Always suprises me that they lived in dangerous and hard to get places yet they must have been pretty clumsy with how much broken pottery there is everywhere! 😂
Thank you. Yes, broken pottery everywhere but probably because when people left these dwellings, the pottery was left behind and so much of it got broken by elements.
Nice job! Enjoyed your exploration! I’d be scared at those higher locations!
Thank you! They even lived in much much steeper and higher locations, this one is relatively easy to access compared to some, believe it or not!
So beautiful, that little chalk ridge. Quite different from other places. Does this chalk contain flint nodules?
It is a limestone canyon, as it used to be ancient sea, and we saw many fossils. I am not sure about flint.

Thank you! I am nearly 14.
