    Special place. Been there many times. Last time I was there with my son when he was about 12, we took the track back in the river proper, walking the bars and swimming every pool. Picked berries from the bank while wading in the river when my boys were just 4 and 2. A place deep in my heart from the years. BTW love your vids on Cactus Atlas!

    • @CactusAtlas

    Now that you mention it, I think your first Narrows video is how I found you and started following you! I've been twice! The first time I took the first shuttle up there and had a similar experience to you on this video. So much of it I was alone or with one other family who were visiting from The Netherlands. The second time we took the second shuttle and it was peopley the whole way through. It's still a magical place either way!

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Amazing how much of a difference one shuttle time can make, huh? 😅 But you're right... it's magical regardless. So happy that you were able to experience yourself! 😊

    I grew up in southern Utah. I got to drive through Zion in the driver-ed car with some classmates back when it was a road from A to B and not a Disneyland park!

    • @davidcox3442
      @davidcox3442 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      there were also a few parking spots in the windows of the long tunnel, and you could drive up the canyon instead of riding a tram.

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Only SLIGHTLY envious! 😂 Zion can indeed be called a Disney park with crowd level now. It can certainly test one's patience. I guess the flipside is that it's good to see people interested in nature and our parks though. (Silver lining? 😅)

    Hi Glen, I am responding to your request how many people were introduced to the Cactus atlas on the first Narrows video? That would be us! My wife and I were planning a trip to Zion and watched your initial Narrows Video. Thank You! the Narrows was probably one of the best adventures we have had in US National parks and we have done many. We probably would not have attempted the narrows hike is it was not for your video. We have been watching the Cactus Atlas ever since. Keep up the good work! Sean And Roxanna Scottsdale Arizona

    Was able to do this with my daughter New Year’s Eve. Wasn’t sure how it would be since it was pretty cold. But surprisingly wasn’t too bad with the bibs and neoprene socks. And not near as crowded as. My knees are bad but glad we got to do together.

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ok. I need more information. 😅 We've always known the winter there has smaller crowds but never really knew how hiking the Narrows then would be. I know that they have winter packages they rent out but was never quite sure if they made it tolerable or what the water levels would be like, etc.

    • @tommyphillips6584
      @tommyphillips6584 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@CactusAtlas you get the bibs, shoes, socks, and stick. It really wasn’t anywhere as bad as I was expecting. Obviously the week between Xmas and New Year’s would be the most crowded part of the winter. Think it was high 30s when we went out and maybe around 50 when came back out. Really exhilarating. U should try.
