Loving The View With Russ And Netty
United States
Registrace 18. 02. 2022
My wife (Netty) and I moved out to Reno, Nevada in February of 2021 from Michigan. We moved out here to be closer to the mountains and amazing desert scenery. We have been able to explore many areas already, from Death Valley, where I enjoy doing astrophotography to the many amazing hikes in the area. Come along with us as we continue to explore the many amazing sites this area has to offer!
Glacier Bay National Park Timelapse From Balcony of Norwegian Encore - Amazing View!
When Netty and I went on our Alaskan Cruise aboard the Norwegian Encore in October of 2023, we were brought into the Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve to see the amazing glaciers.
We were able to catch all of the majesty and splendor right from our balcony. The clouds were just right to show off the beautiful blue skies with the majestic snow-capped mountains all around us.
It is so hard to put into words how beautiful the water and glaciers were!

In November of 2022, our dad came out to visit from Michigan.

We stayed in the valley the first night, in Curry Village, then drove up to Glacier Point the following day to hike on the Panorama Trail to Little Yosemite Valley. The permit we got for our trek had us starting at Glacier Point with o...

While Netty and I were at a star party in Panamint Valley, we decided to take a ride down through Ridgecrest, California. On our way up Highway 395, we saw the sign for Fossil Falls, near the small town of Little Lake, California.

Ancient Rock Art - Grimes Point Archaeological Area

Netty and I traveled out to Grimes Point Archaeological Area, which is located near Fallon, Nevada and is a unique destination that offered us a glimpse into the area's rich history and prehistoric past. The area is home to an extensive collection of petroglyphs, or rock carvings, that date back thousands of years. We explored the area by hiking the Petroglyph and Overlook Trails, which offered...
The Rock Point Mill Ruins - Dayton, Nevada
zhlédnutí 4,4KPřed rokem
Netty and I explored the old Rockpoint Mill Ruins in Dayton, Nevada. This location had a mill on site from approximately 1860 until 1920 and cost nearly $200,000 at the time of its construction. This mill processed gold and silver ore from nearby mines during the Comstock gold rush. When we were researching this location we found that we merely scratched the surface of all of its history in thi...
Devils Golf Course - Death Valley National Park

On a recent road trip to Death Valley, Netty and I made a stop to one of the most popular locations in Death Valley - The Devils Golf Course. If you've never been out here, this location is one that provides no shortage of wonder and awe. The salt deposits go for almost as far as you can see! This location is just a short trip off from Badwater Road. You can take pretty much any vehicle down th...

Nice! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the video. We have a balcony and this was the perfect video for me to see what we can see. Couple questions; WHat did you use for gear to record? I havea Canon 7d and a GoPro that I plan on bringing. Assuming I can suction cup the gopro to the door or something?
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!! For this time lapse, I used a GoPro Hero 7. For the thumbnail image, I used a Canon EOS M50. I used a gorilla pod to allow the GoPro to attach to our balcony railing. It worked pretty well. I was a bit nervous as I definitely didn't want it going into the water, lol, but it worked out fine! Enjoy your cruise! It was an amazing experience.
@@lovingtheviewwithrussandne7462 Did you have a battery hooked up to the GoPro for extra power or did your GoPro Battery work well enough? Oivay! that would definetley make me think twice with the camera on the railing. I was even reconsidering leaving mine suctioned to the door . although if the suction failed i would disappointed. Maybe I get a grip and test before the trip
@@maszaan7024 for this timelapse, I don't think I used an external battery but it did pretty much use up an entire battery doing the timelapse.
what di you mean by exposure? As in you were expose to the direct sun?
Hi Jack. I probably should've been a bit more specific huh?! I just meant that I felt extremely out in the open. Almost like one wrong step and I'd fall to the valley below, lol. While it's true that it can be a bit precarious, I was actually much safer than I was allowing myself to feel at that moment.
wow i stumbled across this video love it ! if i wasnt scared of heights id do this hike but glad i got see the views from your video !
It was a blast. I have to admit, the subdome got to me, lol. The scenery was amazing though!! Thank you for watching 🙂
Great video. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us! Going to do LSV to Half Dome this May (2024). This really helped!
Awesome!! We loved this hike and are actually doing it again in August this year. You'll love it🙂 glad you enjoyed the video!!
I went to this mill today with my roomate but I used to get drunk with my friends in high school and play around lol
Great job! What snacks did you eat on the hike up to the summit?
Thank you!! Our first day, we stopped for lunch and had sandwiches that we got in Lone Pine. Other than that, our snacks were basic things like jerky, nuts, energy bars and one of my favorite trail snacks... M&M's 🙂 Our main meals consisted of freeze dried mashed potatoes and sealed in the bag chicken, as well as some pre-packaged. Freeze dried meals. It was an awesome adventure. We wanted to do it again this year but didn't win the permit yet 😕 Thank you so much for watching!!
You mean to tell me you are totally exhausted at 6 miles, why do people like you think you can hike trails and cause trouble for real hikers 😡
Huh?
love this video brother
Thank you!! Very glad you enjoyed it!!
Awesome video!! So glad you had a good time. Thanks for coming on a tour with us! -your guide Dylan :)
Thank you for watching! We had a blast!!
Awesome!
Thanks!!
My intrusive thoughts want to jump in that still blue water. Amazing soundtrack!
That would be refreshing!!
Simply amazing views and colors, so peaceful!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you for watching 🙂
Glad they put that big orange suit on you so you didn't get lost!
Lol. Agreed.
Sweet! Looks like fun, great views. Good job on the video
Thanks bro! It was fun. If you guys go on an Alaskan cruise, you'll have to try it!
Wow, my back was aching just watching this!!! Definitely not for me but the views look amazing.
It was bumpy 🙂 a lot of fun though!
Rough sounding roads! Amazing mountain views!😊
The road wasn't too bad overall 🙂 the views are amazing though!!
hey guys, I wanted to share that I recently put together a trail guide for this spot too. While I was browsing through CZcams, I stumbled upon your video, and I have to say, I really enjoyed the way you covered the trail. The part about the natives storing food down below was a neat detail. Thanks for sharing, and keep up the good work! 😊
Thank you for the kind words! The history of that whole area is so interesting to us!
@@lovingtheviewwithrussandne7462 same! Happy hiking!
Ah, what an amazing hike. The views are incredible. We love Yosemite and have to come back to do this hike. Thanks for sharing. 👍🙂
Thank you! It was an amazing time for sure! We are definitely looking forward to going back too!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!!
They need to sell shirts in Yosemite that say "I Love Switchbacks." Amazing trip!
I'd buy one!
Awesome!
Thanks bro!
Lovely video my friend! So very atmospheric and scenic, beautiful combination of audio and visuals.
Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I truly appreciate your kind words!
Wow, fantastic adventure!!! Amazing views
Thank you Erika!
theres a consignment store in benton that has gravity fed hot spring wooden tubs. There is plenty of privacy between hot tubs
Very cool. Thanks for the heads up. We'll have to check it out!
Well we needed that!
Yes indeed!
Gorgeous views!!! Huge difference for sure!!!
Sure is!
Passed that this weekend! Should have stopped 😮
Heck yeah!
OMG that's impressive!!! This is really cool, you find all of the gems in Nevada. Very cool
Thank you Erika!
We are just watching it now...cool!
Fun. Glad you liked it 🙂
Do cars naturally grow out of the ground like that?! Only in Nevada.
I know. Bizarre huh?!
Wild! Pretty cool
Thanks! It was a cool stop for sure.
Look like fun
It was fun! You would've loved it 🙂
I wonder how bad this trail is now after the storm of 8-23? Hopefully not too much more damage. Nice video!
Hey Robert. I wonder too. It was a real bummer seeing how beat up it was after last year. Death Valley has had it pretty rough lately! Thank you for watching!!
Don't let headache rock fall on you. Might be a little more than a headache!
Yeah man. No headache for us!
❤ definitely very pretty. I really enjoyed listening to the sound of the water on your way up. Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you Erika! Thanks for watching🙂
Great video! I’ve been there several times but never knew all the history.
Thank you so much! It's amazing the history you can dig up on all these amazing places!! Thank you for watching 🙂.
educational video, thank you... we'll be here at the end of September, travelling from the UK
Thank you!! You'll love it. It's a great, unique place.
Love the way you film this and do your storytelling. Can’t wait to hike this in a couple weeks 🙌🏼
Thank you!! We are jealous 🙂 we were hoping to do it again this year but didn't win the lottery. Good luck and enjoy. It's an amazing experience.
Thanks for taking me along.
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching 🙂
Dayton, list ✓
Netty and I definitely think it's an interesting stop!
Cool! good job, we enjoyed it !!
Thanks man. Glad you liked it!
This was really great!! I'm glad Lilly didn't go to jail. Learned so much about this. Thank you
Thank you Erika! Yeah... I don't think Lily would make it in jail 😁 Thank you for watching!!
I wonder if they found any lithium in those mines?
We should've done some digging!
I really appreciated your stunning video and it gave me a chance to see what to expect in climbing Mt. Whitney. I'm a 61 y/o female and will be climbing Mt. Whitney August 29-30 this year. Are you comfortable sharing how long it took to get to Trail Camp from the trailhead, how long it took from Trail Camp to the Summit and how long it took to descend? I'm trying to manage my expectations. Thanks Russ and Netty and great job!
Great video! I have hiked Whitney three times... over 25 years ago. We used to hike up to Outpost camp.. about 3.5 miles from whitney portal. Spend the night, then wake up at 5:30 am with little no pack gear....water, some energy bars and cold gear and head to the summit! Make it and go all the way back down with that one night stay at Outpost Camp. Trail camp up further has large Marmits!! they'll chew into your tent and bags! No joke... they are BIG too!! Only reason why i avoided Trail camp.
Thanks for watching! We were debating between the two camps. My wife and I both said that we were glad we chose to camp closer to the switchbacks but I can totally see how camping at outpost would be a good choice. It seems so nice there!
@@lovingtheviewwithrussandne7462 There used to be a Waterfall at the the top of Outpost Camp... I ran out of water on my trip when I was a dumb Teen. I DRANK that Fresh Cold Fast running water.. it was SO GOOD!!!!!! Best water I have ever drank in my Life! Not filtered or anything.
@@glocktown21 What a great memory! That water feels pretty darn good on sore feet too!
Really cool video. I grew up in Dayton and spent many hours hiking all around that area. The are some really cool Chinese ovens built into the hill side behind Dayton around D hill.
Thank you very much! That is super cool about the ovens. My wife and I will have to check those out for sure! Thanks for the heads up.
What an amazing hike! I did this hike with a high school group 50 years ago...wonder if our names are still up there...part of me really wants to do it again. Thank you for sharing, really enjoying your videos!😊
That is really cool! Such neat memories for sure. I don't imagine it looks much different now than it did from 50 years ago 🙂. Thank you for your kind words!
I might be taking things to the extreme but I tend to look at the overall view of the petroglyphs and this particular one on a bolder at 2.49 into the video looks to me like maybe 5 thousand years ago someone attempted to make a head and face out of it. There is a place for a forehead and nose, lips not showing and chin & jaw and due to time they never completed it. I have noticed a on a lot of sites that there are similar oddities. I myself have dabbled into rock carving and started a smaller buffalo. Due to for what ever reasons it has set untouched for several years, if one looks carefully at it they can tell it was intended as a buffalo. I as well see a lot of petroglyphs that seem to have what I call ghost markings as well. What I mean there are older drawings in and around the newer ones. Just thought I would share my thoughts. Thank you for sharing with us. After watching more at 6.20 into the video this particular rock appears to have an eye at the right end and possibly an attempt at a mouth the overall lay and shape appears to be that someone wanted to portray it as a fish. Again many thanks.
Definitely interesting food for thought! I thought I recalled one of the interpretive signs saying something along the lines of not being 100% sure what all the rock carvings are trying to portray, so you could be correct?!
@@lovingtheviewwithrussandne7462 Thanks for the reply I recall stumbling upon some Indian grinding holes up in the Sequoia Park Ca. area and it was on a cliff edge I did mark a trail and about ten years later some one had discovered it and made another trail on downward several hundred feet and it was a bigger area such as living quarters it is an awesome feeling stumbling upon these. I have left more than one area I found unmarked that was near 20 year ago don't no if I will ever make it back or not at my age I doubt it have a good life thanks again for sharing.
*I summited in 1978 with the old shorter trailhead at the end of the parking lot and in 2004. Thanks for the memories!*
Very cool! We're looking forward to going back to do it again!
