No annoying music? No blathering commentary? No crowds of pedestrians on the trail? PERFECT. PERFECT. PERFECT. Now *THAT* is the way to make a video of the Grand Canyon. The grandeur of this hike totally carries the video with no need for anything else. THANK YOU for doing it RIGHT!
Oh you’re too kind. It was spiritual to enjoy this special place like this. I am glad I could share it. One day I’ll make it all the way down.
@@darekm101 I just want to elaborate, because we have been planning our first visit to the Grand Canyon for the past six months. I've watched hundreds of CZcams videos that have anything to do with the area from the south rim to the north, from Williams to Cameron to Page, in an effort to figure out what we can (or can't!) do at our age as senior citizens.
Almost all of them are full of nonstop chit-chat, irrelevant music that not only doesn't add to the quality of the video but actually detracts, some poor attempts at humor and comedy, and every other type of overreaction or inappropriate videography that I can think of.
To me, a visit to a place like the Grand Canyon is one of reverence, a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many. You hit the nail on the head by describing it as a spiritual experience. I want to experience the Grand Canyon for all those qualities, not the bells and whistles and hoopla that people add to CZcams in an attempt to impress others with their video editing skills.
The quality of your video is absolutely superior; many similar CZcams videos candidly are out of focus. Yours is tack sharp. And technique: The slow pans across the panomora of the canyon, the pauses at signs long enough that we can actually read them, and the pauses at just the right time that sense when you realized that you should just stop and and take in the breathtaking scenery is top drawer all the way. And all I can hear is your footsteps. Videography at its best.
I won't be able to make this same hike that you did due to my age and medical issues. We won't attempt anything further than the rim or near the rim. So I can simply say that better than any other CZcams video I have watched, *YOURS* best captures what it is really like to hike down into the canyon, and for that reason your video is head-and-shoulders above all the others.
And yours is the first video I've watched that makes me realize that I will be able to get some pretty decent still photographs from the trailhead without hiking down into the canyon. Thankfully, your video makes me feel like I actually took the hike myself.
Kudos on a job very well done!
Hi Bob, you honor me with your very kind comments. I appreciate you taking the time to explain the context. and I know you'll love your visit there. Thank you!
@@darekm101 We made it to the Grand Canyon in June 2022. Thanks to the inspiration you provided in this video, I took a chance and walked down the Bright Angel Trail to the first tunnel. Not that far. What, 600-700 feet from the trailhead? But at least I can say I did it, and have the photos to prove it. My only regret is that it just didn't work out for us to make it to the South Kaibab trailhead pictured in your beautiful video. But at least we made it to Lipan Point and watched a stunning sunset over the canyon.
THANK YOU once again for motivating me to at least attempt a small bit of one of the trails. It's everything you captured in this video -- and more!
@@LittleBurchie I am so happy you were able to witness Grand Canyon first hand! I am glad you're celebrating the success of walking down Bright Angel to first tunnel. That's awesome! Thank you for sharing this info with us! We recently took our friends there and didn't go down too far either. The point to which one got does NOT matter. It's way more important to just enjoy yourself in a safe and responsible way. Appreciate the grandeur of the place and respect the boundaries it commands from each one of us. Go down only as far as you find enjoyable and you did exactly that and it's worth celebrating. Glad you were able to witness one of the most amazing places on this planet. Thanks again for coming back here and sharing your story!
les images sont superbes merci ! même devant mon écran certains passages donnent le vertige ! 🙃
Best of the BEST videos of the Grand Canyons, we watched it 3 times still didn’t get enough of it 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️, thank You!
Thank you as always for being so kind!
This is indeed spectacular! Thanks for sharing this. I am loving your videos.
Thank you Harry! I appreciate it.
Oh my GOD you are back on the trails, we 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️your videos, thank You, be careful, watch out for wild animals surrounding!
This video shows the real image of the Grand Canyon. It is definitely different from other Grand Canyon videos. How hard it must have been to film the video. You made it really well. Thank you.
The hardest part was regulating my breathing so I wasn't wheezing into the camera. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Beautiful, and very well done.
And what a special morning-all the things we love about the South Kaibab when it works out that way-gorgeous light, no wind, silence, and almost no one else around.
Wonderful!
Oh wow, another epic adventure. I love it. Such a great content. Great work my friend. Stay safe 👍🏼
Well it really IS spectacular! :)) And a bit scary!!!
It’s safe if one stays on the trail. I hope to make it all the way down one day. Maybe next year. Thanks for your comment.
@@darekm101 It must be wonderful experience. :))
Your video has so many positive vibes that they passed from your vlog into my heart via the screen❤🥺🌍 Support from Bangalore
Great walk… very inspiring
Excellent and original....thank you
I really love this immersive hiking. It was a pleasure to watch 😌
Beautiful
Awesome video. Thank you!
Awesome video! Very spectacular indeed but also a bit dangerous (breathtaking moments!). Your great work deserves millions of views. Thank you for sharing.
You're too kind, thank you!
Thank you so much for this GREAT effort! I am from Canada and the Grand Canyon was on my bucket list. Thank you for keeping it simple and as said before--PERFECT
Thank you for the kind comments. Love your country! EmeraldLake is my favorite place in the world and I’m going to jazz festival in Montreal in July. I hope you’ll see the Grand Canyon in person.
Fantastic video!!!
It is a shame that you didn't carry on for a little bit more and go to Skeleton Point, you were so close and had done all of the hard work.
I am planning on walking from the rim to Skeleton Point and back in April 2024. I have already started training for it and can do more that the ascent from Skeleton Point to the rim, but need to increase the weight of the backpack so that I can easily carry 3L of water, snacks and a camera and to maintain that level of fitness throughout the year.
Thank you! I wish I went further as well, I had to turn around since my knee started hurting, it's kinda easy to keep going down to start with and then the climb up could turn brutal. Same situation in Hawaii Haleakala from top down, but then have to climp up.
Good luck on your training, I hope you have amazing weather and great condition! Thanks again for the kinds words about the video.
Thanks 🪙
Thank you for this magnificent South Kaibab descent.
We have the impression of going down with you televisedly the video is beautiful (image quality) and stability. I regained our sensations during the descent of Bright Angel ;-) But the South Kaibab trail is more difficult and also lacks maintenance. Your videos really make you want to relive all the intense moments we have during our walks far from all the hustle and bustle and in communication with nature and in such a magnificent place.
Can I ask you what camera you filmed with?
Thank you so much for the kind words! I film with various cameras mounted on a gimble... this walk was long so I needed something light. I filmed this walk with a GoPro mounted on a gimble both stabilizing.
Simply stunning , I got to stand on the south rim last time i came but never ventured down, i wish i had now.
this video was so amazing to watch, nice job and much better pace.
Thank you! It’s a truly spiritual place every time I have a chance Togo down just a bit the timelessness of the place just hits me.
what time of year was this made? hopefully I'm going to be there in November this year.
January
Beautifully made 4K silent hike. Thank you for the efforts. What are the electronic equipments you have on you besides water and food? What’s the total weights? Lastly what the exact month and date of the trip? Just curious.
I will be there in 3.5 months doing R2R.
Thank you! It’s my dream to do rim to river to rim trail run. Are you walking or trail running?
This was recorded ok gopro, mounted on a dji gimble, in a z-axis stabilizer. External microphone was zoom h1n. I think the weigh is relatively reasonable. Probably 2 pounds.
Thanks for the information.
I also want to express a deep appreciation and gratitude for this video as well as the other videos that you have invested the resources and time to produce 4K silence hiking.
I went ahead and ordered the 3D printed ScottyMakesStuff Micro Pro 2 Z-Axis stabilizer, DJI Osmo Pocket, GoPro Max and GoPro Hero 12 and of course my trusty iPhone 15 pro max with lots of backup batteries and filters. They are in total 8.5-10 lbs…trying to get it down to 6 lbs. Every ounce counts for long hikes.
I hiked R2R not trail run. The risks are too high. I have other safer trail options for runs. I planned two hikes…5 days and nights. Also during my 15 breaks I plan to do some journaling and watercolor sketches…’slow down and silence’…old school style.
Keep up the great work!
@@christophertran8896 you’re too kind! BTW. I didn’t have good luck with scotty makes stuff, it’s flimsy. I got the z-axis on amazon.
I’ll write a longer recommendation for your gear adjustment when I get back. Mixing media from all these devices will cause headaches in post processing.
Sorry if this has been asked many times before but what equipment did you use for this? I am travelling from Australia in October to do the South Kaibab to Bright Angel. Keen to try and capture some footage of my own. Thank you!
Thanks for your question and no worries. I have recorded this on a GoPro mounted on "Z Axis Stabilizer" and for audio I used Zoom H1n microphone. I have recently switched away from GoPro to the DJI action cams, both are great my reasons had to do with recording car rides more than anything.
Australia is on my list of places to visit! Have a great day!
People walking in mountain wearing the masks?!? 🤣🤣🤣 Pure insane! 🤣🤣🤣 Anyway thanks for video clip 👍👍
A brief commentary would have been great atleast for the new comers
Thank you! I’ll consider.
It would be nice if there were at least a pipe that you could tie off to. That drop is horrifying.
It made me pay attention. That’s for sure. Thank you for commenting.
