      Another beautiful adventure. That is an amazing canyon and the flute gave it a great aura. It's pretty cool the flute guy agreed to be in the video. Also, just yesterday I saw Trek Planner give you a good shout out! You are gaining subs pretty fast I see, by summer you will be over 10k or more. Thanks for bringing us there with you.

    What did I think? Lemmytellya...
    You're WAY beyond your years. Compositionally, what (and how you've shot) is photographically (okay, yeah, 'video graphically', but anyone with eyes and a brain who isn't able to isolate stop flow instances of a pan or of a sequence) as astute as the most seasoned of 'pros' who shoot for either love or money. Archaeologically, while you may not have the credentials (real or imagined) that many possess, what (and how) you observe and assess is spot on. Neither of these --in neither the visual/graphic sense nor the lack of 'many years in the field' aspects sense-- is in any sort of evidence.
    I am in awe. You're a natural.

      No, we had not seen seen land turtles in these elevations. We do see lots of snakes and lizards though, but they are entering hibernation now, so probably not many until next April. I showed some snakes in my previous videos and also my favorite guys, the horned lizards. They are very active May to September.
      Here is a short I made on them: th-cam.com/users/shortssWBJD7oVZPU

    As a young man about your age in the early 1960’s, nearly everyday after school, I would head into the desert on my bicycle with my dog Boo Boo trailing behind me. Those hours spent exploring and learning set me on a course to become a geologist. I found many sites with evidence which indicated where early indigenous peoples had lived in the Las Vegas , Nevada area. I’ve visited Red Rock Canyon many times. Good luck to you! I enjoyed your video, subscribed, and will follow your channel.

    Water filled the canyon, up to near the walls, when they were built. Water levels were falling, but storms still produced large amounts of water, in brief periods of time, so the walls kept the water out. Undoubtedly, there was seepage, but it beat the alternative. The stones were intricately interlocked, to withstand the force of water rising above the base. The walls of the canyon show the effects of massive amounts of water flowing rapidly, at lowering levels, with some of them being pushed out of alignment with their surroundings.

  • @grtdanes0012
    @grtdanes0012 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    You missed a few good ones in that canyon. There’s another cool one on the east side, and another one about 700 feet up in the fork to the west.
