- The first video for my series of Spring 2019 Hikes. This one features 3 days of backpacking and exploring a remote part of the Upper Paria area in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. Highlights include Hackberry Canyon, The Watson Cabin, Upper Death Valley, Stone Donkey Canyon, Stone Donkey aka Howling Wolf Arch, Hogeye Highlands, Pollock Arch above the Paria, and Yellow Rock.

Love the music! Another great video!
Loved this, thank you!
Awesome -- glad to hear it. Thanks for watching and the comment. 🌞✌
Love the time lapse at Yellow Rock!
Thanks!
Have done this hike in the opposite direction, where I when up Yellow Rock and then finished coming out through the Hackberry Narrows. Love this area. Thanks for sharing.
Cool. I'm glad I took the Yellow Rock "high route" in hindsight as originally I was going to go back down to the Paria via Snake or Hogeye. It's such a good/peaceful area up there. Thanks for watching!
Thanks. Beautiful land.
Thanks -- I agree and glad you like it. 🌞✌
"Not too hard though, it was a gentle fall." That's how I want the rest of my life to be, one long gentle fall.
The first time you said "Molly's nipple!" I thought, did he really just say Molly's nipple? Yes, yes he did." After the second time you said it, and during all your subsequent slow pans across the horizon, I'd say to myself, "I wonder if Jamal's gonna say..and you'd yell, "Molly's nipple!!" right before I'd be able to finish the thought. I counted four times. It's an aggressive yet glorious nipple, to be sure.
Lovely hike as always, thanks for sharing this!
Yeah... I admit I have a bit of a thing for Mollie's Nipple! :) But... at least I don't "sing" about it like I used to in my previous videos (czcams.com/video/udJzbgea6IA/video.html). Thanks for watching!
Good to see you again!
Thanks!
I thoroughly enjoy your work. I have spent so much time in that area since 2010, and reading/retracing Kelsey. The ground you cover is so broken and unforgiving and some of the most beautiful in the world. I like the way you understate the challenges having faced some of them myself and getting a little too long in the tooth to take them on much longer. Hackberry is one I have always wanted to do having been above on yellow rock and ventured in through the narrows. Loved the video. True for all of yours. I have found new disdain for Mylar balloons and rotting cattle carcasses.
Thanks so much, Vern. I appreciate the comment. It's tough at times finding that balance of conveying the difficulty of my hikes. For the most part what I do isn't "technically" difficult (ie climbing/scrambling), but the skills of route-finding and water management are essential. Cheers!
Thanks Jamal for taking us along.
Thanks for watching!
So glad your back!! Looking forward to your next video/post
Thanks! Hope to be releasing a new video each week for the next month. Subscribe and hit notification bell if you haven't already.
Awesome!
Thanks!
Thanks, Jamal!
Thank you!
That's a cool loop few probably do. I liked the views of Pariah- and the angular butte I recognized. Convoluted landscape- can be dangerous for you if you get cut off. Tiring. Went up Hackberry with my pup at the time - 2012. This is one place I wish to return to (and backpack). The same thing happened to Cottonwood Rd when we were there. Saw Pollack Arch on the topo, but didn't get to it, huge square looking arch- neat. Now I know one way there 😬, though there is probably a more direct route.
Yeah -- it's a good area to explore, though many routes are not direct so it takes some "wandering" -- but that can be fun. Thanks for watching! 🌞✌
Very nice!
Thanks!
you do Utah proud
Thanks!
I can not believe there are places in Utah you haven’t hiked. Always great joy to watch your video.
There still are a few! Thanks for watching and the comment.
Watching your movies takes me back in this (red rock) land that I love. It's always the same: Jamal has a new movie out .. it's sunday .. whole family assembles at the living room table for breakfast and everybody is watching your newest adventure. And everytime you end up on a ledge with no way going further I hold my breath. Thanks for taking us with you. Greetings from Germany. Hope I can get back soon.
Thanks again, John. Three more new videos coming -- watch for one about every week through August.
Gorgeous country & another wonderful trip. Thanks for your efforts to share with us.
Ever great Jamal....nice time in my day...thank you.
Thanks for watching, Allen!
MY FAVORITE CHANNEL ON CZcams. Thank you so much for making these. I live in Salt Lake City and I try to make it down to Southern Utah every other weekend. These videos get me so stoked
Thanks so much!
Perfect. I will be in the area (yellow rock) in 6 weeks. i'm looking forward. I love your movies!
Very cool -- have a good trip! BTW if you haven't already, chk out my video from last year with more on the Yellow Rock area: czcams.com/video/FfEa3Z54SBM/video.html
I wholeheartedly love these. You do a wonderful job capturing the indescribably qualities that make this place special.
Thanks so much. Look for more coming soon.
As always, great video. Thanks.
Thanks for watching. More coming soon.
So glad to see you back. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Great video again!! Wet year in Utah for sure...
Thanks. Yep -- it was such a stark contrast to last year.
Thanks for another fantastic and inspiring hike and video, Jamal! Can't wait for the additional installments :). I've camped (and painted) at the old Paria townsite, and the Chinle formation there is unparalleled in terms of the intensity and range of colors.
Cheers,
Sonya
Thanks! Seems like that would be a good place to paint.
Love your videos cause I only get to Utah once every five years or so. Have you ever had a broken leg or badly sprained ankle? What would you do if you were many miles over rough terrain from people? Do you have a Sat phone? Have you seen "127 hours"? If not, don't watch it! ☺
Thanks for watching and the questions. I've twisted my knee twice on hikes, but nothing worse than that. I do carry a SAT messenger -- but even those have limited service in deep canyons. The most important thing to do while hiking solo is to make sure others know your itinerary and have agreed upon check-in points. That was Ralston's big mistake (as seen in 127 Hrs.) BTW -- he is a friend of a friend and spoke with my mom's students back in the day about his accident. He's a friendly/smart guy -- just made a bad decision not telling anyone where he was headed that day. Cheers!
Well done, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching and the comment.
Thanks so much for taking us with you, AWESOME video as usual/ glad you didnt get stuck in the muddy road
Thanks again for watching. Actually... the muddy road did cause me to miss meeting up with my friends for the next hike at the Lower Paria TH. Thus I had to set out late in the day and catch up with them.
@@Acrossutah ugh that is a bummer/
New follower here from New Zealand 😊
Cool! I think you are the first (that I know about anyway!) Thx.
BeaUTAHful ❤️
Hi Jamal! I have met you once on the beginning of one of your trips thru Zion...I am rediscovering your You Tube channel and it's so great! Tell me, how do you have the video following you as you walk by? Isn't it a selfie?
Hello Again! The "follow" shot is done with a 360-degree camera where I'm able to adjust the POV while editing the video. The quality isn't as high as a normal camera, but I really love the effect. BTW -- I still follow the RRH group hoping to someday join in a hike if I'm in that area with time to spare. Thanks for watching!
Little known fact: Mr. Walburn built a cabin out in the middle of nowhere and lived under the alias Mr. Watson because he was in the Witness Protection Program.
Is that true? Very interesting if so as I always wondered what the situation was surrounding the need for an alias. Thanks for watching and the comment. ✌
@@Acrossutah Nah. I was just being full of crap. I'll probably be canceled now.
Haha -- nope, not canceled. I just wasn't sure if it was legit or not. Better than anything I'd heard about the weird situation. Now that it's in my brain, I'll probably repeat is as if fact one day. 😉
Very pretty.
I always look for Mr. Shadow. Where the heck is he this time? :)
Yep -- it was a little too rainy for him on this hike! :) Spoiler alert... he'll be back!
If Maude and George Jefferson could get their own shows, why hasn’t there been a Mr Shadow spinoff?
Foxes are canids, like dogs and wolves, and the adjective for referring to them is vulpine.
Cool -- I meant to clarify with on-screen text, but I forgot. Thanks for that comment!
I like howling wolf arch better.
Thx. I think it kinda depends on the angle.
long time no see Jamal.
btw where's mr.Shadow, did you left him at home?
Yep -- it was too rainy for him on this hike! But... he'll be back! :) Thanks for watching.
