How to Hike Arches National Park with detailed maps & where to camp.
I've also hiked and swam in the low water-level pools at the top of Yosemite Falls. It's neat, but I would offer a word of warning... be aware of the weather conditions miles up river. If there is an isolated rainstorm up river, it could result in a flash flood downstream, and potentially sweep any bathers over the edge of the waterfall.
It’s St Patrick’s Cathedral.
Here strictly for the booty thumbnail
Merced River, not Yosemite River.
The road along the mountain pass to the lake is a single lane dirt road, but 2 wheel drive mini buses do it every day so it's doable if you're an experienced driver. Easiest way to visit is just go on a tour like we did 🎉
Is the road safe
Just came back from New York after our family vacation to Montreal and Quebec which was amazing. We only spent one night; but we needed more time in New York. Will probably repeat this trip next year. Great video.
The old question. Does a bear poop in the woods? No, he poops in the meadow. 😅
No, you CAN'T perform a "Bullitt" chase on Frisco's Lombard Street; Filbert's BETTER!!
Sooo random that I just clicked to watch this video and found out that you parked in front of my house 😂😂 Nice video and visuals!
thanks legend! You live in a beautiful city! Cheers for watching and the kind words 🙏
😍😍😍
Where did you rent the Van?
In San Fran, we rented the van from a site called outdoorsy :)
Might not be true in the bigger cities (due to homeless problems), but camping overnight in Walmart parking lots is done all of the time in my area.
I felt I was there
Nice work! Can you tell us the name of that movie you used to highlight the battle scenes? I’d like to know more about the conflict! 🙏
thanks mate! That cut scene was from some random stock footage, but have a google and there might be some more info, or even on you tube. Pretty incredible history, shame there arent any decent tv shows around the whole event.
Catalonia hermoso pais , lengua y cultura propias pero por el momento, sin Estado, nada que ver con el resto de España, belleza, calidad de vida, tiene de todo, de lo mejor.
Awesome video!! But when did you guys go? I’ve never seen the water flow in Upper Falls this weak which is why I’ve never seen those beautiful pools. That would be an epic and refreshing swim!!
that was in the end of July, we really were super lucky with warm weather, and flowing waterfalls still in action. Was one of the best moments of our trip :)
@@escapewithct makes sense, we just got back from an early June trip and all the falls were PUMPING.
your Video is cool ❤
Just went june 9th when tioga pass opened up the next day and merced river rafting! All the falls were raging and awesome!
so lucky!! glad you all had the best time!
She cooked all the time and washed the clothes and you just enjoyed your trip. that's not fair.
You sound like fun
I would never travel to NY city, for that matter New York itself. What a shameful communist state in the union. rule of law is what in NY? Give me give me give me is going to be harder for bullies; American’s hate bullies. I just have a hard time understanding why you N.Y.ers have not voted for a government that loves America or at least likes it. Not all scholars agree on what fascism is, but all they need to do is look at N.Y.
lol,upper falls trail is harder going down imo. It’s brutal
You should go in april-May, the falls are at their peaks and sometimes they open the tioga pass in late May so you have access to Toulumne meadows and Wawona which have some amazing falls, lakes, and hikes and it's less populated...75% of visitors to Yosemite stay in the valley
this sounds amaaazing, was so busy in the valley in select spots. We cant wait to go back, thanks for the tips :)
@@escapewithct no problem! Took me a few trips before I really did my research and etc. September, after labor day is also a great month to go- all the waterfalls in the valley will be dry but Tuolumne falls/Glen Aulin falls (same trail), and chilnualna falls are still flowing nicely. Tenaya lake is right off the road too.
Love NYC! Great fast paced video. 👍 I can't imagine how many hours you spent editing this masterpiece. Thanks for sharing!
cheers legend! Toook SOOO long making all those transitions in google earth, so reading your comment makes it worth it haha!
Great choices with Central Park and the NY Public Library. Way more people than that visit Times Square. Interesting that you picked the Morgan. It’s one of my favorite places, but most tourists overlook it. Glad you decided to go there.
that library is amaaaazing! so glad we went, its like something out of a harry potter movie. thanks for the comment!
Stay in Brooklyn less scaffolding less 💰💰💰 Prospect Park 🏞️ and Coney Island 🏝️
we will next time for sure! :)
St Patrick’s Cathedral. It is beautiful. Great video. We just went there in Nov 2023 for our 25th wedding anniversary! We saw sooo much in 5 days and still so much more to be seen!
congrats on your wedding anniversary, what a great spot to go to celebrate!
Thanks guys. Even though it was short and sweet, your information about the salt mines was some of the most informative we've seen on CZcams - and we've watched dozens of blogs on it. Right now, we're sitting on a plane at LAX Airport, getting ready fly to Peru, so thank you for this timely video 😀
such good timing! Thanks so much for the kind words, so glad we could share what we learnt, its definitely worth going to visit! Enjoy your trip and if you have any other questions let us know :) Peru is amaaazing
Cool
thanks legend!
Great video! Would it be possible to know the name of the boat cruise and your pick-up/drop off points? The views looked amazing.
Thanks for the comment! Our boat left from Pier 83 Midtown, there's heaps of companies that do it and they are all pretty much the same, we just took what ever boat was included in the city pass 🙏
@@escapewithct Thanks for the reply!
Hi what month was this
sorta the start of summer, June :)
its the Merced river that comes out of Yosemite...
No Statue of Liberty?
We saw it from the boat cruise at the 10 min mark :)
That car is a weapon! Great trip.
thanks legend! such a good little forby, gets us anywhere
Top viewing. In about a year we are looking at doing the western Eyre Penisula and then over to the south-west of WA. Like you, everything is to be loaded into and into the 06 Prado. No trailer, so it was good to watch you guys in the little Suzy. Great work.
thanks legends! hope you have an epic trip! please post back once you do it, would love to know how you go! best part of oz id say
This is such a well made video!
Thanks legend! Glad you enjoyed it, took so long to make with those Google maps transitions😅
In addition, yes Yosemite is my most favorite place .. hopefully in like a month I’ll be making an epic road trip out west from West Virginia to South Dakota ( badlands and mt Rushmore) glacier Alaska crater lake Yosemite sequoia Joshua Tahoe Vegas Utah Colorado and a few other stops in between .. btw did the ice help cool the frig or u all figured out what was wrong with it ?
that trip sounds epic, we sadly didnt make it out to Rushmore but keen to go back. We miss the usa! Fridge was cooked, no idea why it kept tripping out with low voltage. We had to use ice the rest of the trip :/
Really great video! Yall didn't go to any Broadway shows?!
thanks!! we ran out of time sadly, plus we blew our budget so we will have to go back next time haha
Sooo beautiful ! What month did you go ?
Thanks! Was mid June 🙏 🏔️
this was really cool
thanks mate! took sooo long to get that google map transition just right.
Hey there, loved your video 👌🏽 if you don’t mind me asking I’ll be heading down to Denmark for Christmas next week and some of those camp spots look amazing. I can give you my insta and if you don’t mind sending me some of those coordinates would be appreciated
Thanks for the kind words, such a beautiful part of WA. Add us on insta - @soups_tony :) can give you more details!
Awesome the way u did the 3d earth editing.. :)
thanks mate!! just usin google earth pro app on pc, its great!
@@escapewithct awesome! Hopefully ur channel will grow fast! Keep posting
@@suriantoku Thanks legends!
Just found you're channel. You have done such a professional job with your videos. Love that you explain some of the history and meaning of the sites. Great job seamlessly integrating Google Maps satalite views with drone footage to give a really good idea of the layout and proximity of the various sites you visited. We're looking forward to more. We have plans on visiting Peru for the first time in May 2024; so we'll really enjoy your videos even more.
Thanks Legend and cheers for the comment. Its pretty time consuming to put all those map transitions into each vid but its worth it for feedback like this. Glad i can help! We have a few more vids coming out soon so stay tuned. Hope you enjoy your trip to Peru in 2024, it was one of our fav countries! Any qs just let us know
You missed ancient Inca in Callao.
Bummer the COVID got you all... although it was a bit cute hearing your raspy voices. Brilliant tour
Fantastic engagement story!
Great commentary and easy to follow.
Really great look at Yosemite! Looking forward to following along on your adventures
thanks legends! what a beautiful part of the world, nothing like Yosemite!
Fantastic vid! Where did you go?
