Siouxon Creek | MOST BEAUTIFUL Swimming Hole of Washington State
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 09. 2019
- Siouxon Creek of Gifford Pinchot National Forest holds some of the most beautiful swimming holes in all of Washington State. Even the little side canyon of West Creek is tremendously lush and vibrant. After a restful night sleeping among the forest at the trail head, we explored these beautiful hidden gems of Washington.

Water clarity really amazes me when you take the camera in. I love seeing the little fishies swimming with you. Another beautiful wilderness brought to life through your daily explorations. Thank you for sharing with us.
Good luck finding your stow away. I hope he hasn't had a hay day during his visit. 🐀🐿🐁
Great videos bro thank you for all the help and the encouragement to not only enjoy but keep our forest clean for the future!
You are right, most beautiful swimming hole in Washington State, will be visiting this destination in the future.
🤙
WOOOW...so nice..i love nature. i must visit.
ty for this vid my friends and i are def going to check this place out!
Sweet, treat it right
Just did an overnighter at this spot last weekend and going back this coming weekend! Found a private swimming hole with a waterfall and camped on the shore. So pristine!! Some garbage and decent foot traffic but seems to be the closest haven I’ve seen this close to Portland. Cheers- great channel! 👍🏻
Thanks 🤙
Stay In Portland
Thanks man, Its on my summer list now.
Excellent 🤙
Beautiful place and hole.i am very lucky where I live in New Zealand as we have a number of swimming holes like this and only a few minutes out of town so very handy after a hot day 😁
I love it thanks brother.
Definitely gonna hit this place up! great video!
Have fun!
that looks fun ❤️❤️❤️
It was
Beautiful
🙌
amazing!
I've definitely had mice get into the car somehow several times while camped in the Cascades. For a while, I would keep a live trap in the trunk and would check it in the morning and find worried mice. Easy traps though, don't cause any harm and can catch multiple mice, so then you just gently let them back out in the morning
Love the underwater shots. I've always had a fascination with deep pools of water since I was a kid. How deep? 20 feet deep. Thank you!
🙌
You guys deserve more views than you’re getting!👍🏻
Not sure how to remedy that
FYI, the Siouxon trail got hit hard by a forest fire in September 2020. It’s open again but now there’s an additional 3 miles of hiking to get to the trail head. Here’s a video of the before and after: czcams.com/video/6nxWlMzmyng/video.html
these kinds of rivers are great with a wetsuit and snorkeling gear - more fun than just getting wet and quickly getting out and in the sun
Boy how I wish you were Daisy Duke sure make all those hard white body shots of your bearable lol. Good work though on capturing the amazing beauty of these places!
Nurse logs are amazing aren't they!?!?
Indeed
Mornin tea and a Jesse video. love it are you a the east side of yale res? I have been there so many times cold but there is a pretty cool natural slide. its pure melt off but we are big boys.. lol
Thanks Joe. Not sure where Yale Res is.
@@JesseStLouis its just north of vancouver washington. its great. i havent hiked in to the that portion of the lake. its beautiful. let me see if i can even put a pin on that spot. honestly with the snow pack we had this year its just too cold. beautiful and worth a couple jumps but getting there is a bitch if you dont have a boat. i thought for sure you were there
Garden of Eden
Hello, I've looked up this hike and there seems to be multiple trails I want to ask do you remember the exact trial you were on going to both swimming holes. Any insight is always greatly appreciated. Also is a high clearance vehicle needed to get to this location? Thanks
We used a regular car and left from the Siouxon Creek Trailhead, right where West Creek joins Siouxon Creek.
I’m fact checking this in 2 weeks 😂 Thank you Jesse!
Enjoy
I’m new to the northwest via NY, love your channel, and the passion you have for exploring... digging deep into your archives i guess for now,,, enjoy the south lands fellow explorer,,, and look forward to your return post Covid
🤙
Make sure to promote Leave No Trace Principals… if you are going to blow up these spots make sure that the area can handle the foot traffic and that everyone who goes treats it with respect. Exploring our gorgeous forest requires us all to take care of it- pack out ALL your trash and please don’t use the forest as your toilet. I’ve camped here multiple times and it’s always disappointing when you come across some nuckle heads throwing their beer cans and pooping in the woods.
Not gonna be a problem. Siouxon Creek burned in the Big Hollow fire. Now it’s an 8 mile hike in to the first swimming hole.
Wow
🤙
I grew up bow hunting elk in and around that area and thats the big harry mans back yard.
Maybe my own hairy back scared him off 🤣
How many mile walk to the first swimming hole and the second?
What type of camrea are you using and where would I buy one i have been looking for a water proof go pro or camrea
Links for my cameras are in the description, thanks
I live 15 minutes away from there most of it burnt this year in the big hollow fire
oh man, that sucks. Hope your home was ok
What time off the year did you go?
September
I keep watching this because i know exactly how cold our bro is
👍👍
thanks!
40 minutes from my house. I’ll have to check it out
🤙
I drove to the location on the map with my friends and we ended up on logging roads with no clear trailhead in sight. Is there a sign anywhere or do you keep going on the logging road?
You drove to Siouxon Creek Trailhead?
@@JesseStLouis We were unable to find any marked trailhead on maps.
It comes up on Google Maps for me
@@JesseStLouis I found it thank you!
🤙
I live nearby !☺️
Sweet! You get to enjoy that paradise as much as u want!
Jesse St Louis not as much as I would like but yess her beauty is very close .
I believe it is pronounced
Sk-walksin creek
Good to know, thanks
@@JesseStLouis Pretty sure I have that right. Its the way I remember it to be from childhood.
Ever get out this way again, Goldmyer hot springs. Reservation only now I believe but well worth the trek, wont forget or regret it.
Grew up here
Why are your videos so short??
Some are longer than others czcams.com/video/pTEcU-UnwIo/video.htmlsi=PxeAg0N0JdtzuAg9

A great parable for those who have the gift of DISCERNMENT
Water starts aftrr 40 min......lots of bs to sleep thru....your welcome🤓🤠😎
So now I know why it's getting so crowded out where I've Going all my life it's SOOO HARD TO FIND PLACES TO GET AWAY FROM PEOPLE... THAT THING CALLED PEACE AND QUIET thanks people don't respect places like that... now garbage vandalism horrible
You didn’t even show the best place on this trail…Rookie
Gifford Pinchot....the former Governor of Pennsylvania?
And the first Chief of the Forest Service.
Congrats on the least obnoxious swimming hole video on youtube. I may not like the music (because it reminds me of the ocean of terribad videos) but at least it's kept to a minimum, and ain't nobody licensing Zimmer or Queen for a youtube vid. Also, I believe you that the sun wasn't really shining, but you were literally glowing like some sort of bald angel the entire time. You shouldn't drink radium before swimming.
😇😂 what a great comment! I almost spit my coffee out laughing!
