- Hi everybody! Hunter here with another QUEST!!! This time I head south into the Magdalena Bay Region of Baja California Sur in search of endemic succulents of all types. This adventure begins with part 1 of the series (prob gonna be 3 parts in total) focusing on Magdelena island itself. Isla Magdelena is a sparsely inhabited island just off the coast of the pacific side of the peninsula that has a number of cactus, agaves and pachyhaul trees that I will cover here.
I’m on the trip with some good friends (links below) and am excited to share this with you all. Thank you very much for all the love and support you all have given me. I am so passionate about these plants and the habitats they grow in and its truly a dream come true to be able to share this with you.
I feel very grateful for my audience that allows me to continue doing what I’m doing.
I hope you enjoy.

Hermosos cactus muchísimas espinas y muy coloridas flores qué presiosos❤❤❤
Cacti have been my favorite plants since the early 70"s. Lost an extensive collection several years ago from heater and alarm failure in the greenhouse. 19 degrees F. Froze majority. Love to still see them in the wild at least for now.
BUMMER . . cuz i know too. That's the chance we take growing Them in the North, right; but life wouldn't be the same without Them PEACE
Always sad to hear about collections coming upon misfortune like that but good to know it didn’t extinguish the flames of intrigue!!
Another quest drops just in time for Christmas! Looking forward to this one 👍
Booomshakala!!!! Lol. Merry Christmas!
Best episode to date 🌵 🇲🇽 🌊
Thanks man. much appreciated
I enjoyed the new layout of the plant names and short descriptions. I also appreciate the botanical terms used. I need to rewatch and take notes. Thank you for sharing!
right on brother. thanks dude
These ecosystems are so cool. Everything is like almost growing on top of each other. It's so much more dense than I imagined it could be. That part you mentioned the thick brambles was amazingly thick and honestly treacherous. Super forbidden, but so fascinating.
Cool, very enjoyable video. I love seeing cacti in their habitat. That particular spiky opuntia fruit was like, "Eat me, I f ing dare ya"
😂 spot on
Curse words are only a curse if used out of context! Great video, brother! You have no idea how much I appreciate the footage you bring! Thankyou, Man!
I appreciate that!
Best episode IMO. Good stuff
Nice field work, Hunter! Good job.
always loved cacti, but I recently/ randomly found your channel and now I'm obsessed with collecting and I'm starting to grow my own. Keep up with the videos man they are enjoyable to watch and they inspire people. Ill selfishly keep clicking the like button and watch your ads so you keep making these videos
Devin thank you! Glad you liked it and yes I will keep making more most def. Happy new year dude
Thank you for shearing Hunter!! seeing those amazing fat burseras made my day also those agaves are just wow ,amazing video can't wait for part 2 and 3 😁
thank you Carlos - I'm dropping a video today part 3 will come after new years most likely
Wow those Devil fruit looks interesting
That shot at 24:36
Thanks for this wonderful video
I really enjoyed that 😎 I have an Opuntia pycnantha from Magdelena Island, nice to see the place up close. I'd love to go there one day but I probably wont be able 🌵🌵
Love your videos man! I just recently got that first opuntia you showed! It's definitely a nasty little bugger !!
be careful with it haha
Thank god for this channel you guys are awesome, from a Cacti fanboy greetings from Chile!
Thanks Charlie - Im planning to visit your country this coming year
Hell yes the quest continues 🤠
and it goes on and on and on and on 😎
stunning! deeply appreciate your video
enjoy a lot with those creepy spieces
gad you enjoyed. thanks for watching
Thanks for taking me on your trip!!
Amazing videos over and over again!! 💚💚
THANK YOU! Freaking Awesome entertainment & content; talk about being in the holy land; everything just . . . WOW! Looking forward always. Happy Happy & PEACE
Your welcome grateful to be able to share!
Great video ! Those spines on the stenocereus are wicked man. And the thorny fruit. Wow
Thank you glad you enjoyed. Yeah very intense fruit for sure.
Those agave are flippin gorgeous ❤
Regarding the S. eruca, as I understand it the rooting habit you mentioned is technically not true - they are called the Creeping Devil because they tend to "move" across the landscape by allowing the older end of the stem to die back while growing new roots along the growing portion of the stem. Epic content as always, keep em coming!
may need to make an additional video doing. deeper dive into them- interesting info. thank you
Wow those are some beautiful with some vicious thorns even the fruit I don’t think that either birds or rodents eat them, thanks for sharing Hunter!!!
quite vicious indeed. thanks Sandra
Yeah!!! Awesome shots
What an epic trip
Thank you for sharing
You are most welcome
wonderful wonderful 😊🤲
🌵💪🌵💪
First video not gonna lie, kinda disappointed you didnt give your glaucid rant :)
Bahaha. Man I’m sure it’ll come up again. I just need to be assaulted by them again to revisit the topic
15:00 Stenocereus gummosus
ฉันชอบมันมาก
19:42 That could be a nice bonsai tree.
22:06 Wow! Nice bonsai
👏👏👏
The cochemia flower looks like a Cleistocactus
Yes it does.
15:31 Battle Fruit Galactica pahahahahaha
I'm a succulent freek just like you.
Fouquieria diguetii
Probably Fouquieria burragei also!
I was wondering - didn't focus a ton on them but I think we were looking at multiple species
@@CactusQuest님
아름다운 영상 올려주셔서 감사합니다^^
행복 하세요 (❤)
New Challenges try to find Giant Cactus in China Deserts
Que isla es ?
Great video. 15:00 what type of cactus is that? Harrisia? I would like to try that fruit.
Stenocereus gummosus
yes its s. gommosus he is spot on
Showing the beauty of plants and sharing your awe for nature for 24 minutes - and in the last minute you kill animals. Nooooooo... 🙂Apart from that, great video!
two of out of the 4 of us are vegetarians - they came out of retirement to eat the fish - sorry if it bothers you not my intention. hope you enjoyed the plant stuff. Thanks for watching
@@CactusQuest Most of your videos are really great. Thanks for that.
