      Thank you so much 😀 I think nicknaming the place "Bob Ross Park" is totally warranted. 😅

    Majestic mountains indeed! Here in Sweden we are having sunny days,
    with the trees and grass still dressed in green. So the birds are happy,
    and the hearts are glad. Thank you for sharing!

    And I just wanna say...Glen you are or is (depending on who is reading this) one of my favorite youtubers...I feel like when I watch these that I'm hanging out with my uncle or something haha! And such a great job with how relaxing these always are...just a really great way to start a day while I eat my breakfast. I especially saved this one for saturday morning...eating one of my all time fave breakfast cereals...fruity pebbles (I don't normally eat so unhealthy) and lit some pine incense even! haha...thanks for being such a great contribution to the youtuber community...I cannot WAIT to get a vehicle again and get to travling!

    That place looks so amazing. I know how the camera makes things look smaller than it looks in real life, and the mountains still look so impressive. Great video as always.

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So true! They're quite impressive in person. Thanks! 👍

    Yes, I understand your altitude sickness, Mister Glenn. Most of us have experienced it a time or two. It can be bad unless you are aware what you need to do. I drink a lot more water 💦 now and try not to exert myself, if I can help it. Just take it easy and keep drinking the water. Thank you 🙏 Glenn and Amy for your great efforts in showing us how beautiful 🤩 our national parks and off-the-beaten paths can be.

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks! Glad to share!
      More water probably would help a lot. Glenn had enough time to acclimate as he drove up over two days and was there overnight... I imagine water has a lot to do with it.

    Wow! Just beautiful! You captured the beauty and serenity so beautifully!! Scary to hear how sick you got Glenn 😮. It appears you have recovered well. Thanks for making it through to complete the series!

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much! We're still not entirely sure what the issue is but it seems to be a combination of altitude sickness and exertion. Seems to correlate to those two thing. 🤔

    Thanks, Glen; great work on Teton NP (* we fell for Tetons many years ago: relocating to HELENA Valley a few years ago: closer to,Kiddos & Grandchildren, from WARSAW Indiana areas,..) . Anyways, enjoy “kind of hiking “, with you, etc. We do a lot of Day Hikes, etc……Interestingly, GLACIER NP is so beautiful, also……..ps*: the CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL, is rerouted here at “MCDONALD Pass “for several miles presently,etc, We were just up there yesterday…..

      Can't blame you for moving closer. Family is important, but having having all that scenery nearby? Just the cherry on top! 😊

    Glenn, Glenn, Glenn Dude we'd be satisfied with you just doing timelapse shots of pretty much anything instead of you doing anything feeling sick. Wondering if the plastic/rubber vapors haven't gassed off yet might have made you feel bad. Had to take some wallyworld floor mats back cause they stunk so bad. Glad you're feeling better.

      Unsure if it was any gassing of the kayak. It honestly didn't have that huge of a smell when we purchased it (at least I thought so). It seems to coincide with higher altitudes.
      Haha. A Garmin would come in handy... just not in the budget at the moment with expenses we've had and some other going-ons. 🙁
