  • This video is a hike I did in February of 2023 when there was a very unusual blizzard in Southern California. It was SO unique.
    Enjoy!

    So awesome! That happens in the Las Vegas valley every few years. It’s beautiful, but no one knows how to drive in it!

    I like how quiet the countryside becomes during a snowfall, as though all the animals and birds huddle down, and the snow absorbs and deadens sound, leaving you to focus on its presence alone. Very nice video!

    • @popshiking

      So true! I love the quiet and beauty just after a snowfall

    Shocking to see California under snow. Usually, more like scorching heat & wildfires! Interesting example of climate change in action. Great hike with great host☺

      @peonycottagebotique4154 Josh has been encouraging me to start one. Pretty much just launched it a couple weeks ago with a video he helped me produce added last Sunday. I can't believe I'm approaching 1000 followers! People are so kind to me!

      @@popshiking I think that's fantastic. We always enjoy hearing your perspective on your trips with Josh, especially the history of the places you visit together. We stumbled across his channel with the Route 66 journey. When my parents married in 1961, they drove from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada to San Jose where they hoped to settle. My Dad was from N Ireland though and could not get a job so they drove back to Canada BUT I remember them sharing their memories of the road trip and about how exciting it was to be on the famous Route 66. My husband and I were talking about that one day, Googled Route 66, and up popped your journey with Josh. We thoroughly enjoyed it and all the others we've watched. Best of luck with your channel!

    Congratulations on your new channel Pop's. We have been watching your son's channel for about 2 years. Hey about 35 years ago when we moved to Pasadena Ca. it snowed one day during a cold snap and the area between Pasadena & Altadena got so snow I was amazed. Being a DOT highway equipment operator snow was a common thing on the Angeles Crest Hwy 2 but not on the streets of Pasadena. Well it's starting to pour down now here I'm glad I'm retired no working on these Southern California highways in the rain. Can't wait for some old guys adventures. l am planning a 5-6 day solo driving trip to Zion NP. then take US 9 to US 89 into Page Az. and then to the Grand Canyon NP
    Flagstaff, Williams and
    maybe Tucson 🤔 . Can't wait for you to reach 100,000 Subscribers🎉 on Hiking with Pop's

    3:31 That was a great shot! I can hear the howling of the wind. That's what I used to remember of blizzards in the Rocky's when I used to live there was the howling of the wind. I was given moonboots to walk in the snow then ( I was very young).... I wonder if people still use moonboots? .....Blizzards are peaceful in their own way, right? Great job!❄🌨

    @popshiking  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    @1oldvato782 Yeah it was crazy to have that much snow that day. I love Zion although I was too chicken to go out on Angels landing. Page is such a perfect spot. Like the hub of a wheel with all the amazing spots around it. Josh and I were just there and took in lake Powell, antelope canyon and horshoe bend then over to the grand canyon. Did a bit in Tucson but as a cowboy wannabe really enjoyed Tombstone. Thanks for following!

    Hey Pops! This is a great video. You did an awesome job of showing us the once in a lifetime snow in Southern California. I would suggest that you tell everyone exactly what area this is. Thanks!

      @jimfunchess Right near San Bernardino. Thanks for the encouragement!

    Yay! I'm excited for your new channel. Last winter was crazy! We got slammed here in Utah. We got a record-breaking 87 inches! I was shocked when I heard SoCal got snow too! 😲

    • @popshiking
      @popshiking  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @psychlover42 I cannot imagine 87 inches! That must have been quite a challenge. Yeah was so unique here!

      @user-cn6de7x2o I discovered Merrells a while back and that is pretty much what I have stuck with.

    I have lived in So Cal, moved from WA state, and last years weather was the craziest I ever saw. Last year as the first time I saw so much water in the Owens valley cuz of so much snow, followed by a heatwave with flooding from so much snow melt. But lake Shasta got so much water. That made me happy to see. It was so horrifyingly low in 2022. My friends in idyllwild got buried in snow last year. The snow was up to their second story windows. They couldn’t see their truck or SUV. It was rough on the dog trying to find a dry patch to pee. He kept getting buried in snow over his head when he’d dash out. lol. Thanks for posting your unique hike

    • @popshiking
      @popshiking  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @kellyjohnson3617 Funny dog story. Yeah, the last time I was at Shasta was really intrigued by the stories of how the lake will fill then go way down and then fill again over the years.

    With that type of visibility it is very similar to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes National Lakeshore in certain parts in November or March with lake effect snow.
