I can't say enough how much I am loving following you. I look forward to your posts every night. I'll be sad when you go out of service for several days at a time. I just feel like I'm there with you. Thank you for the great daily updates and your positivity. You did so great in the snow so I'm happy you are having some easier days. No Filter was cruising in the video and in shorts! The trail looks so green, so fantastic. Some day I hope to meet you, or at least ask you a million questions! I have eyes for the trail next summer so I'm gobbling up all your tips. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Happy Trails.
The high rain/snow years does result in lush, lovely blooms ... but ... as a native Californian, every time I see these verdant, green videos, where others see beautiful views, I see 200%+ wildfire fuel. I'm so happy you Codgers are able to enjoy this wonderful season ... just hoping my home state doesn't completely burn up later in the season ... !!!
Awww! I’m so glad you enjoyed & appreciated Vasquez Rocks. It was my favorite day hike & family picnic spot when we lived just over the mountain in La Canada.
The first episode to be partially filmed at Vasquez was "Shore Leave" (in which it depicted the Shore Leave Planet along with Africa, USA), spending two and half days on location, on Monday 24 October 1966, Tuesday 25 October 1966 and Wednesday 26 October 1966. In the next month, another two Star Trek episodes were shot there, "Arena", spending two days at Vasquez, on Wednesday 9 November 1966 and Thursday 10 November 1966, and "The Alternative Factor". The latter also spent two days filming on location, on Tuesday 22 November 1966 and Wednesday 23 November 1966. Star Trek returned to Vasquez for the second season, to film "Friday's Child", which also spent two days on location, on Wednesday 24 May 1967 and Thursday 25 May 1967. For "Arena", the destroyed colony at Cestus III was also filmed near Vasquez, at an outdoor fortress set, originally built by Screen Gems for the series Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers. Filming there took place on Friday 11 November 1966. Vasquez was seen again almost twenty years later in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, when some of the Vulcan scenes were filmed there. Three years later, in August 1989, the Star Trek: The Next Generation third season episode "Who Watches The Watchers" was also located at Vasquez. Star Trek: Voyager also filmed scenes at Vasquez, including the barren moon surface for "Initiations" in July 1995 and the desert for "Gravity" in September 1998. In late-July 2001, Vasquez portrayed the Xyrillian homeworld in the Star Trek: Enterprise first season episode "Unexpected". In late-2007, director J.J. Abrams shot the Vulcan scenes of 2009's Star Trek at Vasquez Rocks as an homage to its use in previous Trek productions. [1] In January 2012, Abrams filmed some scenes at Vasquez for Star Trek Into Darkness. [2] Star Trek: Picard also used Vasquez as a location, filming the exteriors of Raffi Musiker's home there for "Maps and Legends" and "The End is the Beginning" in early-May 2019. For the first time, the Vasquez Rocks were portrayed as themselves instead of as a stand-in for a different location.
Thanks for the memories. I camped at that site about 10 years ago. Too bad no Hiker Heaven in Agua Dulce. Happy Trails from a fellow Codger. Whitebeard
So sad y'all don't get to experience Hiker Heaven. It was a highlight stop on the trail. I hung my hammock on a rock face in Vazquez the night before auga dulce. That hang had been on my bucket list since the first time I worked in the park on a film
Very pretty flowers, butterflies and unicorns. How could you miss the unicorns. Nice to meet up with other hikers and chat a while. 21 miles and no injuries! Actually over 400 I believe you said. Great videos guys. Take care and hike on!
By the way, if you guys like movie sets like the Vasquez Rocks, try to go by the Alabama Hills if you drop down into Lone Pine (Owens Valley) for a resupply. And it's great to see all the other hikers whose channels I'm also following!
As far back as PCT Class of 2015 Bouquet Canyon PCT Mile 465.6 has been frequented by trail magic and has served as a water cache for hikers. The Creek by the tent sites was prone to go dry from the looks of it there must be a lot of small seasonal streams.

Really enjoying following your treck. Jealous in many ways. Beautiful pictures and scenery. PCT is on my life list after retirement,going to have to wait until then. What kind of tent is John using? Happy trails. Looking forward to your days to come!
The Flintstones movie was filmed there, too, as well as a bunch of other stuff. One of your camera looks a little smudged. I’m so envious of you, seeing all those gorgeous flowers.
Vasquez was used for other Star Trek episodes besides "Arena". One is "The Alternative Factor", where Lazarus was battling his anti matter duplicate, to protect the universe.
So sorry you weren’t able to experience Hiker Heaven on your northward trek. In my hiking life it was a grounding place to land while heading north. Donna and Jeff were the consummate trail angels.
Y’all are stud-codgers hiking thru all the snow! Two non-judge mental questions for you: (1) in hind sight, would you consider snow shoes?, (2) we all know about the atmospheric rivers and storms…are the temperatures you’ve endured average for the time of year or have those been lower than usual too? Keep on keeping on! Love the videos!
Hey codgers. Good mileages. no more snow or ice ahead. Youall will knockout 75 miles in 3 days, then relax take zero in hikertown. Good luck to the flip floppers thinking they can do high mileage to San Jacinto. Hope they got boots. ice cold mud n slush coming.
Hihi, I think Rumbles has to wipe the lense of his iPhone (or whichever he is using), unless... unless it's some artsy filter of his choice?? Who knows?? 🤭 Great vid again, keep on marching, and congrats for the mileage! 😀
Being close to Hollywood, many filming companies used Vasquez Rocks. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_productions_using_the_Vasquez_Rocks_as_a_filming_location
This area is usually this lush every year but usually only for a short period of time. Always gets really green then dies quickly. A bunch of tall dead plants ready to bern for fire season 🤣
Joe is hilarious with the dachshund 🐕 pov of the trail 😂 I was wondering what happened to John and George. I thought you'd broke up the Beatles after only just getting the band together 😅
Killing the miles.
Everything is so green with bright flowers

The rolling golden hills of California. 280% snow levels in the Southern Sierra.
These are the best videos in the history of trail vlogs. I am jealous as hell. I wish I had friends that were interested in hiking!

Anyone who can work in the Gorn episode has now entered a higher level of respect!
You all are looking so fit and energetic
Amazing how it feels like we're right there with you, even in such short vignettes. Mesmerizing programming.
I love the dog's perspective.

I think it's the magic mushrooms that allow him to see the unicorns.🤣 Nice to see you met another hiker(s) I'm following, Jonalyn Buhr.

Unfortunately they closed for hikers
21 miles *and* you took a two-hour lunch? You guys are killin’ it!

High praise from true hiker trash like rebo. The brother flat out knows what he is talking about.
Had to wear my sunglasses to watch,Joe’s legs made a glare 🤣. Be safe 🍃It was a surprisingly Green Day ,wasn’t expecting that ….
Got some nice shots with your peanut butter soft focus filter. 21 miles 4,500’ elevation , wow, you be in the mode now. Very good.
Really enjoying following your treck. Jealous in many ways. Beautiful pictures and scenery. PCT is on my life list after retirement,going to have to wait until then. What kind of tent is John using? Happy trails. Looking forward to your days to come!
No snow...and flying!
Beautiful views today. Good miles also.

Ah that tunnel. My cover photo was taken on the south side of that tunnel a couple of years ago. And the episode would be the one with the Gorn.

Great job! And all that dirt!
Great job guys!

Yes. Had the chance to talk with him for a little while. Great kid!

They had snow shoes on earlier days before they skipped San Jacinto.

Im not sure what episode it was But if you haven't seen the movie Paul, i highly recommend it for the reenactment of that scene 😂😂 Ah People!!!

It was dirt from me falling on a dirt road :)

I think on road walks it's safer to walk facing oncoming traffic.
Misson creek?
@ 9:20 that doesn't look like flowers. it looks like Stinknet!
Kirk's battle with the Gorn. The episode was called "Gorn."

Any concerns when you hit the Sierra’s with all the snow and the raging waters running down the mountains?
Did you say Treeing Walker Coonhound??? Mine is the best hiking dog ever.
Yep. Ours is a mixed version rescue and the sweetest dog ever. And about 16 years old.
