      Thank you! I have a couple POV/ Raw Footage videos on my channel that are all that-- no music, no talking, just hiking-- that you might enjoy!

      Irresistible is the perfect word! Every time I go hiking i always find rocks that somehow end up at home with me...🤣

    This whole trail and the surroundings are simply perfect for hiking. Another brilliantly crafted upload my friend!

    I use to visit that area back around 2001-2003 when I lived in Chandler, AZ. If you drive closer to Superior on US 60 there is a road you can take on the right that will put you in an area where you can find apache tears. I remember an airplane landing strip being nearby you can use as a landmark to put you in the general area. I really miss the great outdoor adventures Arizona offers. Best of luck in your quest for apache tears!

    Sweet vid, can you metal detect around there? TIA

    • @naturallytrailheaded
      @naturallytrailheaded  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm sure you can, especially in the open areas nearest the perlite mines. I would imagine there's tons of cool stuff out there! There's a shorter route that you can drive down with a 4wd car that takes you to the mine area, just past the entrance to picketpost mtn, near Superior.

      @@berry6243 I can believe that, I saw tons of casings out there-- definitely lots of shooting going on!

    Palm where

    • @naturallytrailheaded

      Greetings! You can see a single palm tree at 2:17 in the center of the screen, and there are two more, side by side, at 3:10 in the center of the screen. They're not very tall, so you don't get that typical long, bare trunk with a poof of leaves on top, but you can see the circle of distinctive fronds at those timemarks.
