      Thank you! My favorite storm so far! I'm not a fan of hiking and bushwacking in the rain, but it was well worth it!

    wow, man, that was stunning!! I have to do this one. Never been to Red Byrd Arch. You captured it beautifully. Can't believe how gorgeous the beach area was. That food looked great too.

      You can find it on Alltrails. It has a reputation for being a tough hike, with tons of blow downs, but it wasn't hard to follow and didn't take as long as I thought to get to.

    I want to go back already. This was such a fun and relaxing trip. And so pretty. Nice job capturing the storm. I could listen to that rain and thunder all day. I also like how green everything is in this one. We don't get to see so much green very often with all our winter trips, haha. And man, my stomach us growling after seeing those burgers again. Our synchronized Ale8 drinking is a thing of beauty as well. Thanks for sharing, brother. I can't wait for the next one!

    • @Smokeybeesnatural

      Thanks brother! As much as I hate dealing with rain, I love how it makes everything so pretty! My favorite thunderstorm so far!

    Had a blast on this one! You captured it very well, brother. I really love those shots of the trees reflecting on the water down at the riverside. Can’t wait for more short trips like this that pack a punch!

    Nice video Nick! Can’t say I enjoy that hike but I love that arch. Did you go out the same way you came in or did you follow the river out?

    • @Smokeybeesnatural
      @Smokeybeesnatural  ปีที่แล้ว

      We went the same way back. We did see one other person who showed up during the first storm. He and his TWO DOGS came from the Douglas trail and crossed the river to get to the arch. Crazy!

    Haha. You found Methcamp! I've cleaned up 100 needles and meth cooking supplies at that campsite several times.

    • @Smokeybeesnatural
      @Smokeybeesnatural  ปีที่แล้ว

      🤣🤣🤣 Makes sense now why we found 5 gallon buckets and random tin cans! If we weren’t bushwacking back up the hill, we would've taken some out. Would be a good spot to take a raft and haul it out.

    That hike was a lot tougher a few years ago before all the deadfall, which made up the middle 1/3 of this hike, began decomposing and sinking into the ground.
    If you want a real off trail adventure go find Mill Creek Overlook. Leave your shorts and short sleeves at home.

      Now that sounds like an adventure! I've seen a photo from the mill creek overlook and it looks amazing!

      @daisychain4096 that's what I thought, but wasn't sure I wasn't missing a joke 🤣. There are several Gorge groups on Facebook that you can look for group hikes. There's a tri-state hiking group as well that hosts group meets
