In this video, I found a huge pit on Google Earth and LiDAR maps, so I went to investigate what this thing was...
I forgot to mention in my video what LiDAR is! LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a technology that uses laser light to create detailed, three-dimensional maps of the Earth's surface. By sending out laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for them to bounce back, LiDAR can accurately determine the distance to objects and create precise images of the landscape, even through dense vegetation or darkness. This makes it incredibly useful for discovering hidden features like ancient ruins, geological formations, or, as in our case, a massive pit in the desert.

👍How to be a respectful visitor to these places👍
Native American groups still live in this area and beyond today. These places are still special and hold significance.
1️⃣Don't climb on walls or structures. Don't lean on or climb over them. Many places don't even need to be visited up close. View these places from a distance or with binoculars.
2️⃣Do not touch the rock art. Don't touch or create new rock art to preserve ancient stories.
3️⃣ Leave All Artifacts. Leave artifacts and structures undisturbed to maintain their historical significance. It is illegal and wrong to take artifacts. If you want something to take home, support local tribes by buying their handicrafts and jewelry.
4️⃣ Manage Waste Responsibly. Use waste bags; don't leave human or pet waste behind. Don't 'go' near cultural sites.
5️⃣ Camp With Care. Don't camp near historical sites. No fires near these areas, and ensure all waste is packed out. Don't make fires in caves or alcoves. Camp in designated spots only. When you leave, make sure to make the site cleaner and better than when you found it. Pick up extra trash you may see.
6️⃣ Control Your Pets. Don't let pets roam freely near archaeological areas to prevent destruction. Pets are not allowed in or near sites.
7️⃣ Preserve Fragile Areas. Don't disturb fossils and please protect delicate soil and plant life.
8️⃣ Follow Rules. Don't engage in illegal actions such as building cairns, or using climbing gear to access archaeological sites.
9️⃣ Obey Drone Rules and Laws. Numerous locations in the American Southwest and beyond, such as the Navajo Reservation, Wilderness Study Areas, and various restricted spaces, enforce strict drone usage prohibitions. It is crucial to not only honor the legacy of the people who once inhabited these areas but also show respect for the present-day residents and adhere to their local laws, customs and regulations.
---------------
NOTE: I don't claim that I am the first person to "discover" these places. I just find things on Google Earth and want to go see what they are!
I do not claim to be an expert on anthropology, geology, or archaeology. I say that my channel is about "amateur archaeology". I don't have a degree or formal training in archaeology. I am just a hiker who loves to explore and see new things especially the ancient history in the American Southwest. This is what my channel is about. I hope you stick around and explore with me!
I do not give out locations to the places in my videos. I take seriously the responsibility to protect and respect these ancient places. If you do find/visit one of these locations, please visit respectfully. I try my best to hide noticeable landmarks, mountains, and canyons in my videos.

Your adventures do not need always be grandiose. I am 79 years old, so I venture precariously through videos such as yours.
Vicariously*
@@ThaTurdBurglar, I'm 72. Both work. 🤪
Precariously, vicariously, hilariously, nefariously... gosh, there's a poem in there somewhere. 😊
@@barbarabrown7960😂
What a beautiful scene for a big TV! 💪🤠
Eagle Sink in Utah off Highway 89. What you missed - it has a very visible and known slip fault line passing through it and the fault is likely the cause of the sink (not simple karst erosion). The sink is prehistoric. Western & Southern Utah is peppered with sinks and potholes.
Definitely missed the fault line info! Thanks so much for sharing that!
If you Google 'Eagle Sink', then be sure to qualify it with 'sinkhole' and/or 'Utah', otherwise you will likely see a ton of publicity for kitchen sinks and the like. The area seems not to be short on historical interest, such as the hidden treasure of the Azteks.
I believe the town (and Ace hardware store) that Google maps wants to automatically zoom to when you just search "Eagle Sink" actually has a sinkhole of its own, too.
@@TheTrekPlanner You can see the fault at 10:40 in your drone footage, in fact!
I got the impression it was very old - thanks for the info!
When I was a kid, I would sit and dangle my legs over the edges of places like this. Now (60 yo), I can't get within 10 feet of the edge. With age comes wisdom.
Wisdom, and a sense of mortality.
I had friends/hiking partners who dangled their legs over the edge of half dome. Fortunately those guys are still with us. Too scary for me. Yeah... about 10 feet from the edge was I could do.
I dated a guy who didn't suffer from the same fear of heights that I have and when we visited Grand Canyon for the first time, he belly crawled to the edge to hang his head over like a dog lovin' thecwind in it's face in a car window. Still relatively safe laying there, it still gave me the heebie-jeebies and I insisted on holding his feet. 🤣🤣 Like all 5'11" of him would suddenly slither or slide over the edge. At least he indulged me.
Recently went to Horseshoe Bend AZ with a visiting cousin from France and he wanted to sit on the edge. I snapped a requested photo from about 25' back with the zoom on my phone. He motioned me to come see the edge, there was a small shelf below him to bolster his courage, but had he slipped and missed the 2 foot wide edge, well let's just say it was a fur piece to the bottom.
Even the drone footage gliding over the edge gives me butterflies in an exhilarating armchair fashion. 😉
Same here with jumping off of diving boards and riding on roller coasters. I would love to experience both again but at 62 years the impact may not be good for my health
...or our sense of balance is reduced by declining eyesight says the person with a lifelong terror of cavernous drops. What a glorious final flight said that same person who knows there's nothing to lose.
Got to remember this land was covered by oceans millions of years ago. That's what the layer lines are. Millions of years of sediment building up. Though a lot of people hate them drones really do have some great uses, like what you are doing.
Take a geology class at the local collage / univ
@@georgesheffield1580. That’s a great idea! I was thinking about getting a book but a class would be more fun. Thanks!
the layer lines are the sign of the global flood not millions of years for weathering and errosion buddy read the book
Or perhaps a few months of a tectonic-level global flood.
@@Huntsman308Funny, you beat me to it!
Another wonderful Trek - Thank you! The earth is such an amazing place: sinkholes, mesas, rivers, forests and so much more. I appreciate the Lidar models - preserving what we see now. Perhaps plan to go back after some years and Lidar again, noting changes if any. That could be interesting, also.
I would suggest asking one of the brilliant American Geologists running TH-cam channels about this. Shawn Wilsey, Nick Zentner, Myron Cook. Pick one of the three.
Nature has many ways to make such holes. 🤗
I watch all three, been following Nick since before the pandemic. This is the desert SW so their expertise and knowledge may not be appropriate but no doubt they might have some ideas why this hole is here. Maybe a more local college with a geology department.
@@farmermark2067 Mate, if you watched Shawn's recent videos from his Germany trip, you will have seen that he has little problems to read the geology of the Rhine area. Betcha all three would have only few questions. Myron Cook recently discussed a case of ground liquefecation due to earthquakes in a video. I guess that is a candidate for making this feature here.
This is a karst -related collapse feature, but it appears to be fault-controlled
I really enjoy Myron Cook's channel!
Randall Carlson…..
Cool! I got the heebie jeebies just looking over the edge with you! Thanks foe the adventure!😊
That's an incredible place. I'm so glad you sent the drone down in there.
me too!
WOW! What an anomaly. I really enjoyed this episode.
I am so thankful you travel to Utah and along with other areas of the Southwest. I also have an adventurous Spirit for traveling and seeing all the destinations that Trek Planner visits, makes me feel like I am there, too in seeing what you see. Don’t ever stop what your doing.
Thanks for the impressive adventure. I did some “googling” and found mention that there is geologic slip-strike fault that runs right through the area and that fault had a hand in creating the sinkhole; as the ground broke along the fault it allowed the water to run in and undercut the layers of sediment eventually leading to the collapse(s) of earth above. Impressive mother nature at work!
You can actually see a vertical fault in the layers of rock on each side of the hole, close to the back, where the layers are noticably offset.
Real micro cossim of life down there
Your adventures are so much fun!! I'm impressed with your curiosity, your trekking skills, your photography skills, and your just plain goodness. Trek on!!
He is a good guy!
He is.
All those layers of history, impossible to imagine the length of time that it has taken to form that landscape.
Read your Bible, don't listen to those who want to erase God from everything.
@@marilynbridges8697 Do you believe it all appeared in 7days ?
@@jaytay8637 HE made it in 6 days actually, after that Earth has gone through many many changes and global floods so yes its taken a long time to form all those stratified sedimentary layers...
I'm so excited about LiDAR tech. I can't wait to see new discoveries in the coming years. I'm hoping they develop a "sonar" version, so they can map the ocean floor, and the Great Lakes.
It's actually been around for a while, look up multibeam sonar. The company I work for uses a Merlin Lidar unit paired with a R2Sonic Multibeam. You can merge the two point cloud datasets to give you a complete scan above and below waterline
Actually this technology is not new
LiDAR has discovered tons of cities hidden in central and south american jungles! It is SO COOL!!!!!
@@georgesheffield1580 The imaging chip that Lincoln Laboratories released in 2014 IS relatively new, and that is the technology that is allowing them to use it to find structures in the jungle these last ten years.
I saw somebody say that the entire earth, has been scanned with lidar. Does anyone know more about this please?
I've been there. My grandpa grew up on a ranch not too far from there. He knew the area better than anyone ever did or ever will.
if, its a sink hole. there would be more, & water flowing, if you dig..its not volcanic, i dont think its a sink hole. no water evidence. most geologists, are paid to conform, as scientists are..id be asking an indian.. the indians told white man about sabe, b/foot, & skinwalker. they laughed.. there your evidence.. ignorance.. like they say the pyramids are 4.5k old, total crap.. & ''noah,s'', flood was 13k ago.. there was more than 1 boat, it was world wide.. plus, in the bible he was told soon before it happened. so, he traveled around the world in a couple months, built a boat.. i dont think so.. viper tv sumerian tablets.. enki, made man.. a genetisist alien.. who now, is named ''god''..by some..
My great, great grandpa was a Hopi, grew up there, he knew the land better than your grandpa ever did.
You two should hook up😂🌈
@@westtexastumbleweed8360 He defected to Paiute?
@@PhillipMikeHunt You may know these guys better than anyone ever will, except maybe someone's grandfather.
Down inside it looked like there might trails down there. Probably Big Horn Sheep making them. It is interesting though.
When you stand on the edge, it makes me nervous. Talk about virtigo! That ginormous plateau can hide so may thing. It looks like a great place to find Pinon Nuts. Thanks for showing that geological oddity in the middle of nowhere.
Our stomachs are rolling. My daughter and I sure do like this find. Thank you Jeff. Although scary, it’s beautiful. The large walls slats falling off the edges are incredible to imaging coming down.
We are both screaming, “WATCH YOUR STEP”!!
Thank you for watching and for your concern for my safety! :-)
Last time I was there a mountain lion was in there!
Whoaaaa!! Now that’s a sinkhole!! Love the drone footage showing how flat & vast an area surrounding this sinkhole is. The layers definitely are cool to look at. Great video!! Thx for sharing. 👍👍❤️
I have a limited ability to walk, so I will never be able to hike like you are doing. That means that you are my guide to places I cannot go, and will never be able to see. I appreciate all you do.
DITTO!
Me too!
Thank you for being here! I appreciate you all!
Great trek. ❗
I never knew this sinkhole existed until you put it on your channel. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to see parts of America that I would have otherwise never been able to see. I've traveled coast to coast, visiting almost every state in America (and up into Canada) but where you take us (off the beaten path, so to speak) - there are interesting, nature-made places you just don't see on the main highways and roadways. I am a long-time subscriber to your channel, and always look forward to your next adventure! And I'm behind the monitor like; "Oh Lord, don't get close to the edge like that, use your drone"!! I'm one of your "safety cheerleaders" LOL. God Bless all your travels and keep you safe. You're Amazing!
It doesn’t matter if it’s established if it’s new to you that’s the adventure. Discovery is one of my favorite drugs. So much fun. I feel 12 years old again.
Right?? I have several videos where I thought I found something far out there but it turns out to be something already well known - oops! It’s still an adventure nonetheless!
Thanks Jeff for taking me on this new great adventure. I may have never seen anything like this if it hadn't been for you & your channel. Thanks, have a great week .
Thank you for watching, Wayne! I’m glad you enjoyed this one!
I loved the ambient background noise of mother nature. Great video! Thanks Jeff! 🥰
Wow that is one impressive hole ! I am really glad you had the drone to show us the inside.
Thank you for taking us along! That was so interesting! I'd never heard of that place before. And all those exposed layers? Fantastic!
Keep exploring and thanks for bringing us all along to see the natural wonders our country has to offer.
Always love it when you get yourself into the shot to help give a sense of scale. Even if you're just a tiny person in one corner of the shot! Very cool place!
I absolutely love the drone flights with the ambient sounds. Really Lovely.
I love getting to tag along with you on adventures that I will, unfortunately, never be able to experience on my own. Thanks to you and your channel I get the second best thing to walking there on my own.
Cannot wait for your next adventure.
Thank you for taking us with you.
Young fellow, I absolutely love your channel. I truly enjoy seeing things like this that I will never be able to see for myself. Your channel is a joy to watch.
WOW! This was amazing. The drone footage really showed the awesomeness of the find. Thanks. Stay safe!
Wow that is so amazing JEFF! The views from the drone raised even more questions about this oddity. Seems the animals know it's not a safe place to be either. You're right....where are the other potential holes we don't know about? Great adventure! Thanks for video. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
There are more nearby that seem to be very deep too! I might go check those out too
Looks like a great place for geologists to study the layers in the area. Maybe a spiral staircase would be nice here.
Only for the suic _idal ones, this hole is young and the walls are very brittle. There are way safer places in the area to study the same layers.
Makes you wonder what kind of "void" existed below allowing the material to suddenly collapse into "it"! AND, you're correct in wondering how many more are hidden "out there" just waiting to suddenly collapse into the abyss!!!!!!
Cave ...limestone is eaten away by rainfall percolation which is slightly acidic after filtering through vegetation long ago
What a rad place to visit. Btw....I applaud how much time and effort you put into actually planning your treks, learning new software, editing video and everything in between. You're obviously a busy dude. Kudos! Can't wait for every video to go on an adventure with you! Thanks!
Absolutely ❣ Thank you.
Another exciting adventure! Thank you!
I just love your enthusiasm for getting out and exploring places whether they are new to modern people or just new to you!!! Thank you for sharing this place so that the next time we are in the area, we can check it out too!
Yup ! I am 77 , ain't no way i would get close too that edge and look down ! It's very neat too watch U , but nop ! It is amazing too see it , but even more amazing too think HOW THAT HAPPENED ! W O W THANKS FOR THAT EXPLANATION ! HAY MAN THANK U !
You accomplish a lot with your videos. For us who can not explore like you, you acomplish what we can't, and we enjoy your videos. We can now see thru your eyes and camera. A big Thank You! Love your channel and respect your content. A indigious Arizona native friend or one I can call a friend.
That 3D image you created is really cool! Keep up the good work
That was a fun trek! I loved watching the drone video with the sounds. Thanks, Jeff. My husband and I look forward to your videos. We love your enthusiasm and curiosity.
Thank you so much for that!
Eagle Sink
42 miles from Kanab, Utah | Parking GPS Location: (37.05228, -112.154649)
A sinkhole that can even be viewed from the highway, Eagle Sink depresses 160 feet into the Earth. Admire how strange this planet is as you step up to the railings or hike along the edges, watching as birds soar in and out of the hole.
Thank you for taking us along, that was amazing to see and a little freaky being so close to the top of a massive sinkhole.
That's pretty close to No Man's Mesa. I bet you'd really dig that place.
We are thankful for you, too, Jeff. NICE adventure. You find some amazing stuff!!
Good job explaining this. Thank you
Outstanding! Very cool trek, and your skills with the camera and drone and 3D software result in high quality footage that is fun to watch. Thanks Jeff, for continuing to perfect your craft. Be safe, and keep on trekking😎🇺🇸
Those drone shots are unreal😮👏
Thank you so much for this. I never knew this existed. The drone footage is amazing. I truly love your adventures!!
Glad you enjoy it!
😂😂, the mom in came out & Yelled STOP . ..🤣🤣🤣. BEAUTIFUL FIND. Ty
Amazing drone photography. Even the footage of you speaking was every clear and colorful making the video more interesting !!! Thanks !!!
It would be interesting to see the water flow patterns in a downpour. But I wouldn’t enjoy those roads in the rain!
I wonder if it was underground water eroding and causing the sinkhole, there is not a lot of water weathering on the walls. And this is the Desert SW.
@@Ron-d2s I’m mostly curious about where the water disappears when it hits the bottom. Maybe there’s passage that could be discovered down there!
@@Ron-d2s The Eagle Sinkhole is attributed to the dissolution of underlying limestone bedrock, a process in which acidic ground water dissolves part of the limestone and carries it away in solution.
@@Tanks_In_Space Tanks...👍😄
Fantastic Landscape - Giant Sink Hole very Deep - Yes - the large Hole Collapsed ! Juniper Berries are used to make Gin ! Brilliant Drone Views from Above and from Inside - wow ! What an Adventure ! Many Cheers from Australia !!!!
Cool adventure! Thanks!
This location is quite well known. I used to live in Northern AZ on the other side of the rim. Used to spend a lot of time in southern Utah and have been to Eagle Sink quite a few times. Nothing really mysterious about it. Loved seeing the drone footage. That was pretty cool.
AHHH the Great Pit of Carkoon ...
Beware the Sarlacc !
Love going on these treks with you! Thanks so very much for taking us along!
Now I want to know more about the geology of this.
Check out the documentaries on sinkholes in Florida, same principal in a wetter environment, water undermines the softer stuff and the harder stuff it trickled through collapses, or underground water might be the cause.
You have the most interesting adventures, Jeff. Your drone is an awesome tool of adventure and exploration. Please give it a gentle pat for all of us who watch your excellent fillum documentary program presentations.
Incredible! Check out the Rock art between 1030 and 1045. “AS” no doubt for Arnie Sacknuson!
That was interesting. What a huge hole. Your drone footage was fantastic! We never could get a better view of this. Thanks Jeff, due to bad knees, I can't hike anymore, so I appreciate your videos so much!
“Where’s the kitchen “ 👍😂🏴
How amazing is the American SW! I’ve been all over Grand Staircase Escalante, Hole-in-the-Rock and Vermillion Cliffs and never even heard of this place. Truly appreciated and thank you so much!
This logically and geologically doesn't make sense. All the way out in the outback, it can't be a quarry (for what reason ? !). Its not some govt or military underground facility. It is not some prepper's underground complex. Its not some mining adventure.
It can only be considered as a geological sink hole, with all of its sedimentary and metamorphic rock. This area would have been a shallow sea, that laid down immense layers of sands and silts, converting into sandstone and siltstone. It was then uplifted into its current elevation. Any geological rifting or ripping in the area, creating a wash basin, or rain water sinkhole, or a once-ancient aquifer that drained out, leaving a cavern underneath, would be a consideration.
Totally agree with your assessment, the real question is how old is it and why did it happen? Sinkholes are created when the water level in the aquifer are depleted and the sedimentary rock collapses, however I find that the location where this happened is odd since it is located on high ground and the terrain slopes downward away from the site.
Dried up aquifer. That's what caused this. Google it
on side of the sinkhole looks like its along a fault... its a fairly straight line... also the surface on that side is somewhat higher. something is going on with that and its super interersting.
all it takes is about 5 minutes of research to learn about the geology of the area and the layers of limestone under the wingate sandstone of arizona, utah and colorado. water seeps through the sandstone and erodes the limestone. eagle sink is thought by geologists to be at least 5000 years old, it has desert varnish on parts of it's walls. there are picto and petraglyphs on the boulders in the hole, all of these in the area date about 1500 years back. if you think anyone, more specifically pre-history anasazi, mined this is ignorant at best. no southwest tribe ever mined in any way. as an aside, the only things worth mining in the area had no use to ancient people, primarily uranium and molybdenum and both of t hese proved to be low grade. the geologic history of our area of the US is much more interesting than moronic conjecture.
@@dawntreader7079 I am not saying that someone created this geological feature via mining but it is possible and you said that no southwest tribe mined in any way but that isn't true, not even according to mainstream academia who I in large part detest for their "peer-reviewed" dishonesty.
I asked Gab AI to list the top 10 unexplained ancient mining operations in the American southwest: Here is its the answer.
The American South-West is rich in history and has numerous ancient mining operations that have been unexplained or remain a mystery. Here are the top ten:
1. The Grand Canyon Caves: These caves are believed to have been mined by an ancient civilization for gold, silver, and other precious minerals.
2.The Anasazi Mines: The Anasazi people, who inhabited the region between 1200 BC and 1300 AD, are known to have mined turquoise and other minerals.
3. The Pueblo Bonito: This ancient site in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, is believed to have been a major center for mining copper and turquoise.
4. The Hopi Mesas: The Hopi people are known to have mined coal, copper, and other minerals from the mesas in northeastern Arizona.
5. The Navajo Mines: The Navajo people have a long history of mining coal, uranium, and other minerals in the South-West.
6. The Zuni Pueblo: The Zuni people are known to have mined turquoise and other minerals from the hills surrounding their pueblo.
7. The Hohokam Mines: The Hohokam people, who inhabited the region between 300 BC and 1400 AD, are known to have mined copper, turquoise, and other minerals.
8. The Mogollon Mines: The Mogollon people, who inhabited the region between 200 BC and 1400 AD, are known to have mined copper, turquoise, and other minerals.
9. The Sinagua Mines: The Sinagua people, who inhabited the region between 700 AD and 1300 AD, are known to have mined copper, turquoise, and other minerals.
10. The Apache Mines: The Apache people have a long history of mining copper, silver, and other minerals in the South-West.
Thank you so much for your videos. I love watching them. I can’t get out there like you do and I live far away from any type of desert area so thank you so much so interesting.
This is going to sound crazy, but it looks like a quarry. It looks like the rock was cut out. But I don't see a good way to lift it out. Just the geologic formation, I guess.
I thought the same thing
Very interesting! THANKS so much for the great adventures. At 69 my pretty 5-year-old APHA horse is my legs on the trails. I've taught her to climb into dry washes and figure out how to get out safely. She is very calm, taking her time to figure out what needs to be done, so fun!
In keeping with the theme...i hope your bike is a Trek.
Awesome find of the Sink Hole from the Lidar maps. I also follow Desert Drifter. Thanks for enlightening us on your adventure. Most interesting, quite a contrast to Scotland.
I imagine there might be the entrance to the Mother and Father of all Utah cave systems concealed somewhere under all that sinkhole rubble.
Thank you. I grew up in southwestern Wyoming spending weekends exploring western Wyoming, northeastern Utah and northwestern Colorado. I live in Tucson now and am looking forward to exploring Arizona and New Mexico.
Sink holes are nothing new, even though they are no occurring in places where we do not want them like the middle of neighborhoods and cities. But they certainly ARE fascinating to see when they are this large and this old. There is one in Arizona I visited which if full with water at the bottom and the water is toxic but turtles live in the water just the same.
The earth is amazing and alive. It never gets old exploring, always new things to find
All of Nature is so adaptive; except for humans. We get stuck
@@cdd4248 That’s kind of a weird thing to say. Humans have populated every continent except Antarctica. The human population is more than 8 billion. Humans are probably the most adaptable creatures on earth.

@@dcarts5616 Well you can eat a lot of things........ might not be doing so hot after on some of them.
People can make a tea with the juniper berries.
Fascinating!!! In Florida where I live there are many sinkholes, I understand they are formed here when the aquifers underground collapse.
some others said it too, but It doesn't look like a sinkhole...were did the water go? It should be a tunnel or something down there, and why do I see a perfectly CUT right angle there?...

I wanted to be interested in the video but I spent the whole time trying to read your shirt to see if I should keep watching your channel. Anyone who wants to blast me about keeping Politics out of this should keep in mind he's the one wearing a shirt that says Regan.
It’s just a shirt we bought at the presidential museum to be funny. I usually get people asking how old I am or if it’s an “original” shirt
Hi. Talk about nature at its finest!! Thanks, great video. Stay safe.❤❤
It's the entrance to a SHIELD base.
Geology is one of the most interesting sciences. And your adventures will make others take notice of the many aspects that hopefully will get them to go out and discover on their own.
I bet you'll get more comments about your t-shirt than the pit.
I loved his t-shirt!
It’s what I noticed first. Voted for him way back when.
Reagan? 😅
I love the t- shirt 👍and new someone would say something about

Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing.
I see you are wearing an antique shirt, from before you were born, bro. Pondering subliminal message.......
No subliminal messages here. My wife and I went to see The Air Force One plane at the Reagan museum and I bought a shirt on the way out. I guess nowadays it could imply certain things but it’s more of a remembrance of our trip to see the plane
Unreal! Amazing........reminds me of me as a kid....but, while we kids would get excited over a "gulley", I can't imagine finding something like this........and look at the views! Over 60,000....I am so proud of you...been watching since you first started......keep it up!!!!

@@Ron-d2swho got triggered? You got triggered by my comment? 😂
Fascinating place, and beautiful patterns in the aerials!
Now you're making political videos using political t-shirts to overshadow the landscape? I'm out.
I just LOVE your drone work! Thanks again!
Love your stuff but can't support your politics.
Thanks, Jeff! I really enjoyed this one and am so glad you flew the drone into the sinkhole. Plus that aerial view was amazing!
I'm unsure if you were wearing a political t shirt in support of reppublicans....
If so....I will never be watching another one of your videos
