- • Backpacking Utah | Low...
Join me on a 3 night/4 day backpack through Utah's Lower Death Hollow. I return here for the first time since a trip I did in 2018. I've wanted to revisit ever since. It is a stunning canyon shrouded in sheer Navajo sandstone cliffs with a perennial stream of deep blue pools. It's one of my favorite places to backpack in Southern Utah.

For 24 minutes and 31 seconds, I forgot the world was on fire..
@Joe Blow Thank you for your remarkable insight Obi-won. Could you also recommend a good laundry detergent..?
I agree. Perfect blend of stunning landscapes and beautiful music.
I don't see any trail marks...how do they know which way to go..i don't they have any maps or compass...i would be lost even i went there a couple of times...
Hi just found your channel so glad I did loved this video so much breath taken views WOW!!! All the way from the UK England thank you 👍👍
Loved it. The quiet beauty is like the Earth speaking from it's soul.
So poetic!
Thank you Diane!
This video came at an auspicious time. Thank you for the break into sanity, Catherine.
Thank you for making Utah more beautiful, which hardly seems possible. Despite its name, Death Hollow looks like a Garden of Eden in the desert. This trip is now on my bucket list.
I love your videos and music selections! Enjoying a marathon today and it is much needed. 💕
Thank you 🙏!
Your videos are getting better.🐕🐕🚴♂️
Beautiful pictures! Your pictures are like being in a different world.
This is one of the most mesmerizing videos you have ever done. Just when we all are thinking the world will never survive the current chaos, you remind us with beautiful videography, calm voice, undaunted determination, and strirring music that our planet is deaf to the trivails of our species. Utah is so achingly beautiful and in places like Death Hollow, relatively pristine. Thanks for taking all of us on your trek back to the garden, where Mother Nature rules, quietly, peacefully, and with a rhythm that's eternal.
Thank you so much!
This video was right on time. I needed something soothing in the midst of all the horror that is going on right now. I shared this video on my Facebook page hoping it will help others as well.
Jan Cross I agree. I watched it twice. Beautiful peaceful place. Thank you. 🙏🌎🕊
Thank you!
@@CatherineGregoryAdventures th-cam.com/video/NKky98OnS6s/w-d-xo.html, do you have to get a permit to camp down there and I'm always curious on how to camp there? like do you have to purchase the permit, get the permit and just hike and deploy your tent there?
The view points in this video were awesome. Your videos are fun and educational. Thanks Catherine 😃
Thank you Delonte!
No problem and keep up the good work 😊
Wow! Trust your artistry to fully capture and share the abundance of beautiful life to be found resident in a place called "Death Hollow". Throughout this masterpiece, I was reminded of the text of the 23rd Psalm. Besides the physical beauty, congrats on capturing and sharing the peace which is so pervasive. Great to see you back in your natural element. May almighty God continue to Bless and Protect you.
Thank you John!
the sound of the stream flowing is so zen
Congrats Catherine. Your pictures and angles of caméra are great. Right balancing as well. I discovered Utah Somme years ago , great place. Im from France and in love with your western landscape coing back everyyear now. I will share tour film with friends , film that brins heat to our heart on these difficult time. Thank you
Thank you and thanks for sharing!
Even a hint of rain while hiking in those slots and narrows would make me hesitate. But, I'm glad you decided to go and bring us along.
Cat, if there was ever an example of ‘a hidden gem’, then I just saw it through your lens.
I can't even think of just one word to describe how I feel about this hike. What an amazing place so much beauty out there. As always thank you for taking us along with you. I know you are on cloud nine again being able to go to these fantastic places. Stay safe and well
Exciting, gotta watch this one asap!
😀 Hope you enjoy it. Going to watch your new video now!
@@CatherineGregoryAdventures Awesome, same lol!
Utah! What a gorgeous state. So much beauty!
It is!!! ❤️❤️
Your videos just keep getting better and better Catherine 👌
Wondrous scenery, superb photography, one could not ask for more. All the more appreciated during this period of travel restrictions. Thank you for taking us along.
Absolutely stunning! I can only imagine the effort you put into editing this masterpiece. ;)
Thank you Christine! ❤️
@@CatherineGregoryAdventures Love your videos my wife and I just discovered them today and really enjoying them She is in a wheelchair I can't hike like that but would love to. This is the only way we can get out and do this. Thank you so much.
Utah is such a gorgeous state, took my first solo or trip in 30 years this past week. After watching your trips it inspired me to try again.
Catherine your video was wonderful, beautiful. peaceful, and fantastic!!!!! I loved it.
Wow. You had me hooked beginning with that view at 2:00. And the peaceful bird sounds at 19:20. Ahhhh... Kept me captivated the entire time. Thanks!
Yes, thank you for bringing us this beautiful escape from the tragedies of the world. I loved every minute of it!
Always good music choices! Lovely video great timing for its release.
Very Nice!!! Thanks for sharing the adventure.
Video resolution was way through the roof ! Beautiful and marvelous. Travel safe. From Pasadena, Ca.
I was there exactly two years ago to the day. It was one of the best backpacking trips of my life. I would love to go back.
You are Rembrandt with a video camera! Thank you, I love your stuff.
Thank you!
Thank you catherine for a wonderful journey and sharing the beautiful video it lifts my heart,,,,thank you Catherine so much.....
Beautiful imagery and music, Catherine. Thanks for taking us along so we could be there too.
You make beautiful videos Catherine. Love the music too! Thanks for posting.
You knocked it out of the park on this one. Your photographic eye did a wonderful job capturing the superb scenery. Good music choice and great video!
Thank you 🙏!
Great video. As usual, the scenes you show are beautiful....thanks so much!
Utah has been my all time favorite state and the way you put this video together with the music almost brought tears to my eyes. We have been trying so hard to get back. This is my favorite video of yours so far. It will be hard to beat. Well done Catherine can’t wait for the next one. Wish we were there.
👍what an awesome hike, beautiful 👣 trail
Spectacular video and beautiful music- what a wonderful combination! Indeed, it's just what is needed in such a stressful time. I'm sure I'll be watching it again. I added it to my Favorites.
Thank you!
All your editing work paid off Catherine. Excellent video! One of your best.
Wow. Thanks so much Bryan. Shows how when you are too close to your own work, you can something lose perspective. Thanks for your help with some of the shots. It was a fantastic trip!
What an amazing place. Such diversity of life, dramatic & colorful geology, and the every present birdsong. I watched this full screen and got lost in it. Your 4K investment really paid off on this one. Well done, Catherine. It's great to have your adventures back to enjoy. How refreshing.
Just breathtaking. You capture the peace and awe struck of these beautiful places.
Oh Catherine! You are so lucky and blessed to be have these incredible experiences. What a spectacular way to get back on the road. Thank yu so much for sharing this beauty with us.
What a beautiful and stunning landscape....easy to forget the world and it’s troubles watching videos like this 👍🏻 From me
This area is my favorite. You are very talented. Thank you for the peacefulness that it delivers.
Thank you for sharing. There are so many hidden treasures in America. You really realize the simple and natural blessings of life when you put forth the effort to seek them out. The World is a more peaceful place when humans can experience these kind of natural wonders. So grateful that these locations still exist as they allow humanity to reflect and find the good inside of their souls. Nicely done 😎
Such rugged beauty! Awesome trip!
Wow wonderful rock formations, thanks lol
What a beautiful hike and camp! Thank you for taking me along.
Thank you, Catherine. I really enjoy your sensibilities in terms of what sights to capture with your camera - the lizards, the worms, the snakes, the fish (you must really have your camera at the ready!), the small pools, the rustling trees and so forth - in other words, all the "things" that enter our senses when we're out there. It's the stuff that non-outdoor people (is that a word?) would not readily notice or expect to notice when venturing out in nature. Just thanks again. Very nice.
Thank you!!
On my list now thank you for the video during such crazy times - it totally took me there. Music selection then the nature sounds blended perfectly. Great editing. This is one of my favorite videos of yours.
Thank you Gigi!! You are the Gigi I met in Bryce? 😀
Catherine Gregory Yes I am! Can’t believe it was you it’s such a small world! I am not an avid hiker but I do hike - I mainly go places in my camper to go fishing and some hiking - I travel alone so I was inspired by you to go do what you love! Absolutely love your videos and your an inspiration! Thank you!
Your channel has some of the best content because you keep it real rather than using a bunch of gear reviews to drive traffic. All your content is well produced. Kudos
Thanks so much! ❤️
Yet another wonderful video affirming why I love Utah. While I live in NY (for now), my heart and soul live in Utah. Thank you, Catherine.
Beautiful trip Catherine. Thanks for sharing!
Just awesome Catherine. Love from Ireland. Be safe and well
Utah is such a beautiful place! I first saw it about 30 years ago and the impression it left has stayed throughout the passage of time.
That looks like a Painted Desert Glossy Snake. Non venomous and beautiful to watch wandering by.
Looks like a Prairie King snake, almost stepped on one once, scared me to death
Been watching your channel for some time now. Really enjoy it! And this video is so timely. The peacefulness of it, and the music you chose along with scenery, I do not know if you will ever fully realize how therapeutic something like this is. I am going to suggest it to my patients. Who are all in various degrees of emotional distress due to the covid thing and now the riots along with destruction, they are frightened, some of the seniors afraid to leave their homes fearing they will die of a disease or some riots will take their life.d To see something like this......very emotionally soothing, and will let us know this too shall pass and we will be ok. Thank you for sharing.
I have been saving this up for a few days. It was worth the wait! Exquisitely beautiful. You’ve got this, lady! Thank you.
Thank you!!
Catherine Gregory I live in Salt Lake City. When you go north and if your you pass by here, be sure to wave!
Thank you, Thank you so much for posting this. What a refreshing respite from the things going on around us today!
Cat, just beautiful. Great job doing it justice. Don
one of our top 10places ever! canyon beauty "GODS THUMB PRINT" indeed.. my wife and I ,did the "sand creek " baCK IN THE 90`S we base camped from "calf creek" going up the escalante to sand creek .. what beauty and we must return soon! thanks for stoking my canyon fire. ...happy trails always....
Top 10 ever! Well, I'll have to add it to the lis then. It looks fantastic.
Great video Catherine, cant wait to partake of that trail!!
Great trip, great video, very beautiful scenery. Really very well done.
I go boulder hopping (stream dancing) a lot over the years mostly in the San Gabriel Mountains, and that hike though extremely beautiful beyond any words, must of been a chore to navigate. Thank you and good video, hike and trip!
It's the most wonderful nature I've ever seen. I'm touched. I'll subscribe.
Beautiful scenery and great weather. I love that part of Utah! Brings backs some great memories. Thanks!
I was excited to see another adventure video. You got a lot of great footage! I especially like the contrast between the bright green leaves of the trees against the red rock walls. Seems like a great trip.
Thank you Angela!!
That was an adventurous expedition. It was very scenic with rock walls, the water and still a lot of wildflowers.
Thanks for the heads up on poison ivy there.
Incredible! That place is such a special area, and I feel you can only truly appreciate and respect it once you’ve been there. I had a failed attempt to walk all the way down Sand Creek a couple years back, and am just dying to go back and make it happen. There are apparently some amazing Native American ruins and art panels.
Thank you for sharing this!
You get it! Your state is amazing. I love it!
Catherine, your video footage is breathtaking. Thank you so much for taking us on another fantastic adventure!!!
Awesome hike!
What a beautiful world we live in! Behind every door is a new adventure. Thanks for taking us along. 🙂
Another awesome video, Cat! Honestly, it couldn't have come at a better time. It totally lifted my spirits, which were extremely down after horrific events enveloped our nation last night. Thanks for sharing. It was also great to see Bryan along. Best wishes for your next adventure...
Thank you so much Coach!!
Thank you for taking the time to stop and show the scenery. It is nice to relax and take the time to enjoy nature. One thing I would have liked to have seen was the night sky. I imagine it would be especially wondrous without all of the light pollution.
Thank you. As always it’s beautiful.
Congratulations on you being able to get out, and do what you love to do. It looked like a wonderful hike.
Nice video Catherine. Beautiful red walled canyon and nice stream, rugged hiking in stream half of the time. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful area!!Like the music at 8:16 Brian is a trouper !!
Amazing, beautiful, and so peaceful!
I keep coming back to your videos! I've been so many of the places you're featuring, which brings back so many memories, which is great, because, since I have health issues that preclude my going out into nature, I can live vicariously thru your videos!!! Question: have you by any chance any videos of any of the Big 5 Utah Parks? Was there in 1986 for 10 days; just amazing! Also, visited Canyon De Chelly NM and Monument Valley, which is like another world (esp. at night: the most amazing star field I've ever seen!)
Thank you!!!!!
Absolutely beautiful scenery! The 4K footage you captured and the perspectives were so well done. It made us feel as though we were hiking with you. And the soundtrack you chose really enhanced it all. Outstanding job, Catherine! We look forward to you next video. ~Doug and Carol
Thank you so much 🙏!!
stunning thanks for sharing
Oh Catherine...you do not only relate a backpacking story...you weave together sights and sounds that will linger in one's mind forever. I have subscribed awhile ago but will continue to catch up on those that I missed. Truly awesome videography and spectacular editing.
Thank you for another few minutes of bliss in this crazy time we live in. So incredibly beautiful and peaceful.
Wow, what an amazing video, you did a great job documenting everything with your camera and sharing it with us.
Videography is very good. Great editing and overall, a very enjoyable viewing. Good travels, look forward to more!
One of my all time favorite solo hikes was in Utah, Canyonland's Horseshoe Canyon; parts of this hike reminded me of that wonderful day when I had a piece of paradise all to myself for 10 hours. Fabulous petroglyphs to be found there as a reward for the hike down and in. Thanks so much for a beautiful journey with you and your friend. Stay well.
Cat! What an awesome video! Absolutely loved it! You are the ultimate hiking/backpacking & RV travel TH-camr!!! 🥰👍👌🏕⛰🐍☀️🏜🏕🎉🍀⛰🏕🏜
Awe...thank you Loran! I appreciate that! :)
Cat 😊
Makes my heart so happy and full to see you back out on the trail. Such a beautiful place, those canyon walls are amazing. I remember when you last did that hike, stay well and happy, sweet girl.
Awe...thank you Pamela!!
Awesome hike...Awesome video.
Of all the beautiful places you've brought to us, this one might just be my favorite!
So good to see you backpacking again. Bryan has an enjoyable voice. Very pleasant to listen to.
Well documented hike. Just great coverage.
Breathtaking scenery. The video itself is just stunning...a piece of art. So glad I found you yesterday and am looking forward to traveling with you 😉🙂.
Gorgeous scenery and such awesomeness!
I hope the pests were not bad? Mosquito's can be a nightmare. Great to see you out adventuring again. Thank you.
No mosquitoes thankfully!
This is another great video. Nice nature trail. It looked amazing. Before school scenery. Thank you Katherine thank goodness you had a guide to help along the way. Thank you for this great video. See you soon. Stay safe and travel safe.
Wow, that's a great video.
The scenery of the rocky valley is so fantastic.
There are so many touching scenes.
I'm glad to be a friend of your great channel.
Happy New Year.
Always stay healthy.
👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🤙👌
Excellent vid Catherine.
