- Alabama Hills in Lone Pine, CA was one of the epic stops that we made on our road trip through the U.S 395. In fact, we enjoyed it so much that we came back multiple times ever since. This tumble of ancient giant granite boulders is like a trip into fantasy land. The timeless forces of wind and ice have sculpted the massive stone monoliths into a wonderland full of unique rock formations and natural arches. Besides its gorgeous landscape, Alabama Hills is also a famous location where numerous Western movies were filmed. And the best thing is, it is free to visit! So, we compiled a shortlist of some of the best things you can do here in Alabama Hills.
We love Alabama Hills, and we hope you do too. Therefore, please help us protect and keep this area clean and free for generations to come. This means take out ALL your trash, DO NOT deface any rocks, and leave things where they are.

Great video guys! I’ve just been to Alabama Hills and completely agree with all your recommendations!
We are glad that you got to check it out! Did you get around to all of the arches?
Camping is my #1 on this list!
It is such a wonderful place to camp. Just go during the right season. We have camped there when it got down to the low 20's. It was so cold!
Alabama hills. rocks
Yes it does! Literally! 😂
@@ThatAdventureLife really beautiful, especially the black and white lined ones
Guten Morgen Ihr lieben, alles super wunderschöne Aufnahmen und Eindrücke.
Vielen Dank! Ich benutze Google Translate, also hoffe ich, dass dies Sinn macht. Hab einen schönen Tag!
I go all the time to the Alabama Hills for rock climbing and camping. Can’t wait to go back
Same here! We love it there!
Subscriber #668. Archiving this to look back in about a year
Thanks a ton man! I'm looking forward to seeing what the next year brings as well!
Amazing!
One of our favorite places to explore
Thank you for the “you pack it in you pack it out” reminder because many forget. Got to go check it out and look for Arch’s and moves locations. Enjoy the video and tips on visiting the park especially camping info because if it’s full of people it takes away the enjoyment for me.
Thank you Tim! If we can get just one more person to clean up these areas it's a win (hopefully many more though). It is such a beautiful area. If you have a high clearance vehicle you can get further away from any crowds. 😁👍
Excellent! We camped here a few years back, but at the beginning of March. It was cold... really cold. But we loved it all.
Yeah, it can get super cold there! Glad you enjoyed it!
Pretty cool. Love it
Thank you for this great video.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Is there any reptile that I need to worry about camping
We havent personally seen any out there, but I think it would be a fair assumption that you could encounter some. Just watch your step :)
There is also the miner's cabin. The lone pine of Lone Pine. The cave dwellers homestead. The hidden grotto. The ashram. And Dog Dick Rock. But those are all secret locations.
Wow. It seems like you will never get to see everything there!
who could forget about dog dick rock....
Awesome video that was very nice and interesting! Gave me a lot of inspiration for my future videos. Thanks a lot and take care
So glad you enjoyed it! Have a great day! 😁
I realize I'm pretty off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?
@Adriel Rocco i use flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
@Aaron Valentino Definitely, been using Flixzone for since april myself :D
@Aaron Valentino thank you, signed up and it seems to work :D I appreciate it !
Thanks for the video, passed it multiple times when hiking Whitney, never explore it. Curious what your tent set, never saw this kind of set before.
You should stop by next time. As for the tent, it is a tent on top of a cot. It is the Teton Vista (2) for 2 person. The tent sits on 2 (two) Teton Universal Camping Cots. They do have the vista for 1 person. If you go with the 1 person tent, you only need one cot. We have the links below for the cots and the tents in case you're interested.

@@ThatAdventureLife thanks!
Is this a free anywhere too camp ???
Hi, it used to be. However, with the surge of people during the pandemic, the BLM has installed new rules. Starting in the fall of 2021, camping outside of developed campgrounds in the Alabama Hills will be limited to areas shown on this map and marked with a campsite marker. There were discussions of free camping permits as well, however, i don't think it's required yet.

What is that platform your tent is on? I’ve never seen anything like it, but now I want one!
Hey! The tent is a Teton Vista 2 and it is sitting on 2 teton universal camp cots. We are hoping to do a full review soon :)
Most campsites are closed. FYI
Question what brand is your tent
Hey Javier. So the tent we have is the Teton Vista (2) for 2 person. The tent sits on 2 Teton Universal Camping Cots. They do have the vista for 1 person. If you go with the 1 person tent, you only need one cot. We have the links below for the cots and the tents in case you're interested.

@@ThatAdventureLife thank you it looks nice
We love it alot!
Love the video you should move to Hawaii it's very peaceful not much crime and gangs here in hawaii just old people and young people working
Thanks a ton Anthony! Hawaii is our favorite place and we plan on living there one day!
Wide angle. 50mm matches your eye. I camp at Independence on creek at campground.
Foothill Road is off Onion Valley. Shepard Pass TH.
Campgrounds at bottom of Onion Valley road too. And up top.
Its amazingly busy compared too 2010.
Whole Eastern Sierra.
Carson Reno LA. Pile in. Top of last hill is sweet. Road is crap. If someone else is up there you are neighbors.
Great video and thank you for sharing it. Do you think I’ll be able to explore it in a 2wd truck with a lift and at tires? So happy to see they allow drones too.
Hey Joe! So glad that you enjoyed the video! Yea I think you could make it around most of the area in your truck. There is some sand out there, so stay away from that and you should be alright. Im sure that you know the. capabilities of your truck. Have fun out there!
@@ThatAdventureLife Cool, thanks again and keep up the good work!
@@concordianjoe2256 thank you so much! Will do! One last thing is that you may want to check an app like b4ufly before you cart your drone all the way out there. That was a few years back and things can change. Don't want ya to be disappointed.
@@ThatAdventureLife Good tip 👍🏼, will do.
NICE video! But the Alabama Hills' movie history actually began around 1919, with a Jack Hoxie western, Lightning Bryce. Dozens of movies were filmed there before Gene Autry's Boots and Saddles. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_shot_in_Lone_Pine
Thank you Darryl! Wow! Thank you for the info. We will update everything 😁👍
I like your tent set up, it looks convenient for elders like us, is the tent and cot a combo?
We love our tent! It is actually 3 separate pieces, but they are meant to go together
It's this tent

And 2 of these cots

We are hoping to do a review on it soon 😎🤙
@@ThatAdventureLife Thank you so much, Im 57 years old and I think this set-up will be easier for me. God be with you always,
Do you need to air down to go on the off road paths? Or is it easy enough that you don't need to air down?
Depends on which roads you take. We've done a few of them and we didn't have to air down.
@@ThatAdventureLife My car is not lifted, would be ok? I drive a GX470
@@m6n15 You would be fine on the main roads. The main road appears to be maintained and the only thing that you will have to deal with is some washboard. You might struggle on some of the side roads. Just keep your eyes peeled and know the limitations of your car and you should be fine :)
Will regular fwd cars make it out there? Or does one need one like yours/off road vehicle?
You should be able to drive on the main road. There is washboard so it might be bumpy but it should work. The side roads are quite a bit more rugged though and cars wouldn't make it
Thank you! Will stick on the main road it is...
What heck are the painted on eyes 👀 and mouths 👄 on those beautiful rocks 🪨, some one needs to get that crap 💩 off of those beautiful rocks 🪨, nice picture, praise Jesus grace Christ amen. Thanks BigAl California
Yea we would definitely prefer that the rocks were unpainted as well!
Not unless under 80 degrees. I camp on top of last hill. Crap road. 4x4.
Is there BLM area for target shooting?
That is a good question. We aren't sure. It can get pretty busy out there so I don't that there would be a clear place to shoot, you may want to ask the Alabama hills blm office
You have drone footage of Alabama Hills yet flying drones in Alabama Hills is prohibited by law.
Those footage were taken years ago when there were no drone laws in the area. Things have changed since then I'm sure but not when we took these videos.
i like to figure out how much of this stuff is giant bodies turned to stone and not lava
Same as Joshua tree
The type of rock is pretty similar but that's about it. The view of Mt. Whitney CA and all of the unique arches give this place a special place in our hearts. It's also all dirt roads out there, so it feels like more of an adventure when you are exploring it.
I thought Alabama Hills was BLM and you could just camp anywhere.
That used to be the case. Over the course of the pandemic, crowds got too big and they started requiring a permit to camp.
