Registrace 21. 07. 2009
This channel is all about my rambles here in western Colorado, where I live and sometimes from anywhere else I might wander. At nearly 70 years young, I'm so thankful I can still hike these beautiful mountains. Hiking and photography are my favorite things to do. If I can only capture God's creation in a way that glorifies Him, I'll be happy. He's the true artist - I'm just a copier. All glory belongs to my savior Jesus - it's all about Him!
Little Cimarron During High Runoff...June 7, 2024
I don't remember what the lady was doing, but she told me to go hiking. So, what's a feller to do....go hiking. I knew it might be a bit early to get to where I wanted to hike and I was right. I dodged a few snowbanks that were a bit sketchy to get around. But, then I came to avalanche debris covering the road. I could have probably pulled most of the small trees out of the way, but packed avalanche snow is another story. It was deep enough that I didn't want to risk it by myself. So, plan B was to just check out the high runoff and when I was tired of that head up on High Mesa. It was just dandy up there. On the way down I ran into a bachelor herd of bull elk. All in all, a grand day in God's creation.

Great Day In The Mountains May 25, 2024
zhlédnutí 28Před 4 hodinami
We rambled all over the mountains on this day. What great wonders of God's creation we saw....mountains, critters, flowers. It was a very windy day so the video clips are very noisy. Thus, I toned them down and added some music on this one. I hope you enjoy God's beautiful outdoors! Music: Composer: Ian Post Album: Winter Solstice Song: Delicate Frost
Dallas Trail Hike June 24, 2024
zhlédnutí 59Před 12 hodinami
The lady and I took a mountain hike to escape the heat. It was even quite warm up there. We only did around 4.5 miles as the clouds were building and we had taken our time savoring every minute. Too many people are in such a hurry hiking - I was like that once too. Slow down and enjoy it all...listen to the birds, the tiny streams, the rivers, the bees on the flowers. Unfortunately, on this day...
Sanborn ATV Ride May 30, 2024
zhlédnutí 8Před 19 hodinami
The lady and I got out for an ATV ride on this day. It turned out to be quite windy, but it was still good. We went to an old cow camp that is now owned by the Forest Service. Surprisingly the old water hand pump still works. The buildings have been mostly infested with critters and bugs. We saw several small muley bucks lounging in the shade out of the heat.
Middle Fork June 12, 2024
zhlédnutí 15Před 19 hodinami
This was an outing with my buddy Allen. We did a bit of fishing (caught one tiger trout) and then wandered up the middle fork. At the waterfall, some disrespectful rock climbers had stuffed artificial flowers all over in the rock wall. As I always say - only trashy people trash the great outdoors! Beautiful blessed day in the mountains - Thank you Lord!
Hornet Trail Hike June 14, 2024
zhlédnutí 41Před 19 hodinami
This is not a flashy San Juan hike. It's on the mostly quiet Uncompahgre. It's the solitude and birds and peace that draw me here. When there aren't big views, you tend to focus more on the small things....flowers, birds singing, cool stumps. On this day it was mostly overcast, which made for a fantastic day - not too hot, not too cool. This trail is shared by horses, hikers, motorcycles and mo...
Failes Creek Hike June 20, 2024
zhlédnutí 53Před 21 hodinou
The lady and I decided to escape the heat and stretch the legs. This is a locked gate road, used for access to private land and logging. I've hiked on it many times. It's a very easy walk. We only went about 4.5 miles and turned around due to hearing thunder coming over the mountain. We got dumped on for about 15 minutes....it just added to the adventure. Then the sky cleared. It was a fun day ...
Trees That Grow In Rocks

These trees amaze me - they seem to grow in rocks. Very little soil up there and many are quite tall.

Just a quick walk in the woods. Some flowers and a couple Lewis woodpeckers. Any day in the woods is a good day!
Elk...Cows, calves and bulls. June 15, 2024
zhlédnutí 181Před dnem
We've been waiting, waiting and waiting some more to see some elk calves. Finally they are here. We watched the herd for 20 minutes or so. Then the lead cow barked and off they went. I don't know what disturbed her as our presence in our truck hadn't bothered them for quite a while. But, they soon came back out of the trees and started grazing again. Then on the way down the mountain we ran int...
Muley Bucks June 2024

Just a couple short clips of growing muley bucks. It's been hot and they were trying to stay cool in the shade. They didn't even get up as I shot the video from the truck.
Big Cimarron Evening - May 2024
zhlédnutí 41Před měsícem
Another great evening in the San Juan Mountain country. On this night we saw the usual deer and elk; but were also treated to a Yellow Warbler and a couple young bull moose buddies. Would somebody please tell me how you can get out in nature and see all the wonders and still believe there is no God? That takes a lot of un-faith if you ask me. No music or narration on this one - just the sounds ...
A Great Evening

The lady had women's Bible study on this night so I escaped to the mountains for a few hours to look for critters. Better than sitting in front of the picture box any day. haha I'm so blessed that stuff like this is only 30 minutes away. Music: Mike & Theresa Stinnett www.stinnettsticks.com/music

excellent . . . thumbs up 👍💪💥
Wow! Loved seeing this! ❤️ Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪
Greetings to you too. Thank you very much!
I’m born and raised in Colorado, and I have to say I love your videos man. You truly shed light on the beauty of our state. Beautiful edits, beautiful shots, beautiful cuts well done all around.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
beautiful mountain and wildlife scenery
First of all, I like to make a comment about the scene at 4.04. I'm always fascinated when I see horizontal lines in a rock face. It tells me that a long time ago this rock must have been vertical. OK enough of that ha ha. I've never seen a bluebird and didn't realize they are so beautiful. I see all the muieys still in their winter coats and the moose still with little antlers. Bob, you certainly hit the jackpot with these moose who seem to be OK with your presence. Wonderful video, Bob. Thanks and God bless. Joan
Thank you Joan. Those rocks are mesmerizing. Those mountain bluebirds are very fun and many are great posers. You’re too kind! Be blessed bunches.
Great Video San Juan. I just love spring in the mountains when everything is waking up from their winter nap. THANKS for shar'in your mountains with us!!
Thanks buddy - it's a grand time of year for sure!
Wow Beautiful scenery my friend!! Nice work!!!
Thank you Eric!
Just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Kevin for taking a look and the nice comment!
Moose!
Spectacular video of this spectacular season Bob! I loved the warbler and the bluebird. And the moose and all of it really!
Thanks alot Les. Enjoy your spring.
Lovely drive and evening in the mountains! Was that a baby bluebird? So cute and feathers all fluffed out! Beautiful deer, elk and moose! Wow, that sure was a bright yellow warbler! Pretty! Love all those mountains and trees! 💚💚🌲🌲👌
Thanks a bunch Jennifer. Ain't spring fantastic?
Great to hear your nice clear voice talking about all that you see. And you sure were blessed to see all of God's creatures as well as your favorite mountains. That sunset was just Devine. A fitting image to close off your video. Thank you, Bob. Joan
Thank you for the kind words Joan. Yes, I'm blessed way more than I deserve. Have a great weekend and many blessings!
Beautiful photos. I loved the narration. You have a voice for it and should do that more often. Great job as always and you could never bore us. God's creation always gives me comfort and peace. I think that's why I love my job so much, working outside at the park where I live. Always something to see. It's hard work, but I do love it.
Thank you bunches Stephanie. The world would be a better place if people would get a dose of God’s creation now and then. Sounds like you have the perfect job…I can’t imagine you cooped up in an office. Blessings to you.
Beautiful views and wildflowers, and an exciting bear encounter! Great job handling the situation! I can see why you love this trail and these mountains! 😄☀💚💙
Ahhh thanks for the kind words Jennifer!
Great way to spend the evening! The animals were all out to say hello! Enjoyed seeing your photos and your narration too! Beautiful, close photos of the deer, beautiful elk and birds! Interesting to note he one who had a broken beak. Got to love those mountains!! 💙💙 Enjoyed the quote you started with! 👌💕 Have a great day Bob and Mrs!
It sure was a dandy evening. Thanks Jennifer!
Very Cool San Juan!! Great Photo's!! Thanks for shar'in!!
Thanks alot buddy! Hope you're doing well and nearing being able to get out on your bike.
@@SanJuanMountainBob ... THANKS BUDDY!! ... went for my first ride on the 14th. Just an easy road ride & it was AWESOME!! Looking forward to the next one ... but I am a little sore. Seems the bouncing around even a rutted dirt road tweaks your muscles a little ... HAHAHAHA!!!
Another good one. Always beautiful.
Thanks brother. P77 was a bust most of last summer. Great so far this year. We will have to get up there some evening.
Beautiful photos, lovely music, and great narration! Thank you, Lord, indeed, for letting us see and enjoy all that You created! We are so blessed! Awesome video, Bob! ❤
Thanks a bunch - appreciate you guys!
Great addition to your collection, Bob. I really enjoyed all of the animals. We had a hen wood duck here, who was missing her lower jaw. She seemed to be getting along okay. I wonder how that happens? Thank you for such a beautiful and relaxing video. Many blessings, my friend.
I wondered the same thing - how that happens. It would be fatal I'd assume for a raptor. Thanks a lot - I surely appreciate it - many blessings to you folks too!
Great video! Totally awesome! It is a pleasure to support my friends, it is truly a great pleasure to be here to appreciate your great work🖥📸💻❤❤❤#13
Hey - thanks alot!
San Juan Mountain Bob wonderfully phenomenal excellence superlative rivetingly spellbinding marvellous stellar brilliance
Thanks you!
Happy Spring! You’re got very pretty pasque flowers! Ours are just white, and I hardly ever see them… since they bloom very early and in the higher elevations…but I try! Lovely animals and views! Glad you got to see some elk, they’re beautiful! Thanks for sharing a piece of Colorado with us! 👌☀☀❤
Great work on this episode, Bob. You have great skill with the camera and lens. Of course you are surrounded by stunning natural beauty. I really enjoyed this, and wish you peace, health, and happiness this year. God bless.
Thanks a bunch Kevin: It's pretty easy when surrounded by God's beautiful creation. I'm glad you enjoyed it and left a comment. Blessings to you and yours as well.
Thank you for sharing your experiences, Bob. It's really beautiful nature. Thumbs up. 👍 Interesting. Wish you a pleasant week. Kind regards, Knut.
Thanks a lot Knut - You have a great week too!

Thank you very much - I appreciate it!
A spectacle that is difficult to describe in words. Even your photographs do not convey this spectacle. Your gratitude for this indescribably wonderful experience is palpable, and I thank you for sharing this magical moment.
Thank you for the very kind words. Greatly appreciated!
I know I watched and commented on your video, but I guess I didn't press on the :Comment.: I have a bad habit of doing just that. Anyway, Bob, I really enjoyed all the views that you have given us. I think that this series should be fun. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Joan
Great voiceover, Bob. Your voice is clear and I think you could easily get a job as a radio announcer ha ha. "Spring has sprung, the grass is riz, I don't know where the boidies is: I hope you'll forgive me. I couldn't help thinking of those words. But seriously, I won't say Spring is my favorite season, because it's really Autumn that always delights me, but I have to admit Spring comes in second best. As usual, I always love seeing those snow clad mountains and the crocus and other flowers but you must suspect I'm always enchanted by the animals that God has seen fit to live on this earth with us, so thank you for a lovely video. Joan.:
I’m with you. I like fall better. Thanks a lot Joan. Be blessed!
Absolute pro level narration.
You’re too kind. Thanks Bill.
Great video. Thank you for sharing. 👍8
Thanks a lot.
Spring!! ... Ya Gotta Love It!! Just freak'in gorgeous My Friend!! Thanks For Shar'in!!
For sure buddy. Thanks a bunch!
Great video. I especially like your narration.
Thanks brother!
Beautiful photography.
Thanks alot Don. I appreciate you stopping by!
Thanks to the elevation differences, spring hits almost identically here in southern Alberta even though we are nearly 1000 km further north. And so nice to hear your voice!
I’ve kind of noticed that too. Thanks a bunch Mike. You’re my inspiration for that commentary thing…but, I’ll never come close to your level of expertise. Plus, that’s a lot of work! You make it sound easy. 🥵
I absolutely love crocus'! They were my mom's favorite and one of my cousin's favorites too. My cousin was a photographer and I have a picture she took of a prairie crocus hanging on the wall in my office. Both are passed on now. Awesome video Bob! Loved the narrating!
They sure are beautiful. Thanks a lot Jerry. Many blessings at ya!
Impressive! Awesome experience to see that many Bighorn sheep! Great close in video, aren’t their eyes expressive and their horns must be so heavy! I could just see those birds trying to stay put in the strong wind, but jumping up as the wind lifted them up, wow! Wonderful nature, thanks Bob! 🌟🌟👍👍
You had a most excellent March! Lovely birds and elk and wow, I loved seeing the Bighorn Sheep! ❤❤ Those San Juan Mountains are calling my name! 😉😁 Beautiful slideshow, thanks! 🌟🌟
Great images! I love the music
Thanks a lot Bill.
Beautiful as always! 😊
Thanks a lot Stephanie. Blessings to you!
Those bighorn sheep are surely amazing, especially when seen up close. What a great idea to film from your car with that telephoto lens...just great. Thank you, Bob, for yet another lovely film of God's creatures. Joan
Yes, it's fun to see them. That was the largest group of rams I've seen in a long time and they were so photogenic! Thanks alot Joan.
One of your best, bob. I had to watch it again to see all the beautiful creatures and, of course, the awesome landscape. Joan
Thank you kindly Joan. I appreciate you!
Love those bighorns!
Me too!
Very nice!! Very relaxing!
Thanks you very much Eric! Have a great day!
Very nice photos! Peaceful slideshow! Thank you for sharing! 😊
Thank you and blessings your way.
Another awesome video My Friend, with some awesome photo's!! THANKS for shar'in!!
Thanks Utah buddy. Hoping to see you out on the bike soon!
Way cool San Juan ... THANKS for shar'in!! 👍👍
Thank ya kindly Utah buddy!
Great footage of the BIG Horns. Don’t get to see them often.
Best bunch of rams I've seen to date. Thanks brother!
Such awesome photos! We're really missing the mountains! Beautiful! ❤
Thank you - I am too. Hopefully it won't be long before we can get up there.
Awesome snowy hike! It's fun to hear the bird calls. 🐦 Peaceful views. Thanks for sharing! 😊
It was a dandy day. Thanks for the nice comment and blessings to you two!
