I've spent most of my adult life playing in the area. I've lived and worked in BIshop, Flown my hang glider HIGH over Mt Whitney and fished every creek, stream and lake. I've floated and fished the Owens River and used to own 3 silver claims just north of Lone Pine. I even had a cabin on the claims. Now I live in Northern Nevada because I just could not handle the politics in CA any longer. But I still go back to play every year.
Oh how fun Catherine! You're so good about cooking for yourself, but every once in a while we need to treat ourselves. I love the history of the places you go. Thank you for taking us to the Alabama Hills and Sierra's again. I never tire of them. Also, thank you for sharing the resources and education tools you're connected to. I love that your channel is family friendly. I always know that I won't be surprised with anything vulgar and insulting...very rare these days, especially on CZcams. Oh man that sandwich looked good. I think I'll go make one and sit outside in my backyard here in Phoenix, AZ. Thank you for your beautiful content Catherine.
Thank you Deanna! ❤️
4 hrs later...I can't get that song out of my head. "You are the magnet I am steel" over and over. Thanks Catherine
😂😂😂
Dear "Cat G"
Your video brought back such wonderful memories! I lived in Independence back in late 70's with my boyfriend/husband to be.
I worked at the Lone Pine Schats bakery, lasted one dinner shift at The Merry Go Round steak house., finally settled as a CNA at the local nursing home or sanatorium. I was a volunteer EMT also in Independence. That started my journey to being a registered Nurse, which was why we moved away. The area had no college for my goal.
After 33 years as a Frontline HCW, ER/Trauma/ICU, I retired in 12/2020.
This is my favorite video!
So many of my favorite hikes/running trails are your camp grounds, too
Thank you for sharing the beauty of Eastern Sierras!
I have taken my truck camper, 1997 Lance Squire 3000, my flat towed Jeep Rubicon, and camped at Lone Pine RV park.
Wish I could of afforded a 4x4 Dodge DRW, but my budget was stretched as I had just recovered from ovarian cancer. I have an 05 Dodge DRW CREW CAB 2X6
Cancer taught me what you already know.
Live everyday with joy and abundance
Again, this is MY favorite place. You did a great job.
Dear Cat 😃😘🍀👍, what for emotional last two video and message. Wow 🤩 thank you. 69.200 subscribers are like a full of people football arena 🏟 your favourite sports watching 😂😘 Nicole and my are two spectators and say ‘heeeeeeelloooo Cat’ we appreciate every game, every show. Thanks so much 😘 in that difficult hard time for us in europe. This let us keep smiling 🙂🎈🌷bye the way, the sierra is so cool 😎
🙏❤️🙏
My wife and I have been enjoying your videos for sometime now . We were both blown away from the quality of the videos from this episode and feel that they are perhaps the most impressive videos that we have seen to date. The quality coming through our 4k tv is outstanding. We just wanted to let you know. Keep up the great work.
Thank you both so much! I appreciate the kind feedback.
I just love your free spirit. You are such an inspiration to women to seek out their adventures. I love your calmness.
It's easy to see why the eastern Sierras might be your favorite place. Beautiful area. Lots of little towns to resupply, camping spots nearby. Thank You for taking me along. You keep posting And I'll keep watching.🙏👍😎
Not only do you manage to capture breathtaking scenery week after week, but you give me lots of meal ideas! Thank you for another stunning video!
Thank you Jill! ❤️
Hi Catherin, If you're experiencing head aches at high elevations don't exert yourself too much. If your have breathing problems don't rest but get down to lower elevations to oxygenate yourself. If you don't you could die from it. Another option is to carry an oxygen bottle with you. If you go to a welding supply shop you can get breathable oxygen from them since they supply hospitals. Be careful up there. Also at higher elevations it's best to adapt to it first for a week before you exert yourself.
Have a great time.
I love the Eastern Sierras. They also put my soul at peace. Thank you 😊
Hi Catherine! I lived in Inyokern for 16 years before moving into Ridgcrest. I wish I could show you the picture that hangs in my living room. When my husband and I moved to Idyllwild full time we wanted to take a piece of the Eastern Sierra with us. I know you would love the photo. We got tired of the hot summers, Bone chilling winters and of course the “W” you never actually say the word or it will blow and blow 😉. We do miss the sunrises and sunsets they are spectacular!
We are so similar in that, aside from a handful of very important ppl, we prioritize the call of the land in our lives. I feel so grateful to realize and accept this, and also to be able to heed the call...! Even though less than 2 years ago I was planning on building a house, now instead I'm focused on getting an adventure vehicle set up (which has been in my heart for a long time). Thanks for the inspo, as always! 🤍
Thank you for the peace and serenity you gave me today. Thank you for bringing calmness to my life.
Thank you for bringing some peace to this gal stuck on the western side 😄 the sense of calm is visible and hard to leave. As always, looking forward to your next view!.
Awesome scenery, Gee, a skilled photographer AND you can sing too!?!? Who knew🤠??? Safe travels Cat...
Been to Shatz Bakery sooo many times, in,our family we like to joke and say” but did ya have the bread?” Best bread in California . I love all their delicious pastries and goodies. Make my sweet tooth happy!
... Cannot add what hasn't been said multiple times except ,, Thank You Catherine ...... Love the rugged ranges and museums whenever they're on the path .... Stay Safe and God Bless ....
Hi Cat, as ever beautiful pictures. I was in Lone Pine in 1995! But the only thing I remember was that I bought a dash mat for my Nissan Pickup. With this dash mat I was the king in Germany!!! Many Regards! Your German friend, Ralf
The sierras are truly a wonderful place, I found heaven on earth here. Love your videos and I’m super jelly of your life style, living the dream…
Cath, That’s the handiwork of the Great “I AM”!
My Sunday morning starts with a cup of coffee & your video. It’s a perfect start to a beautiful day. Those mountains were magical! Thank you for your family friendly channel! We appreciate it! 🙏
This part of North America is among the most beautiful geographically on our continent. Sunrise on the Sierra Nevada Mtns is breathtaking, few other places can match it. You obviously know this area well. Your photography shows great understanding of best lighting, time of day, etc. Top flight dear, love it. See you next week. Safe journey.
Your photos and videography takes my breath away.
Thank you Jinnie.
Thanks for the memories. It was around the time that Walter Egan was singing "Magnet and Steel" that my Pappy introduced us city boys to wilderness backpacking in the Sierras. Such beautiful vistas you capture magnificently on video. GOD bless you and protect you..✌😎.
Good morning Cat. Thank you for sharing your latest adventure with us. I can’t think of a better way to start off my Sunday morning. Wishing you safe travels in whatever direction you go.
Your videos allow me to enjoy this beautiful country. Thank you.
Thank You Catherine' Love Your Music' Voice ' Editing' Vibes and All the Subjects of Your Passions!💜🏞🦋⛅
From my first trip up 395 in 1989 I was instantly hooked on the East side.
Thank you.
It was indeed a beautiful sunset, with the orange & blue hues & the last rays of sunshine hitting the tops of the mountains. Those sauteed brussels sprouts looked good I'll have to try that.
Mt. Tom and the Tungsten Hills. As a child, I spent some of my greatest times in Bishop and at the Rocking K Ranch that my cousin owned. That's magic land Catherine!
Earth our amazing home. Thank you for showing her to us.
Gm Catherine, be safe.. enjoy your day...also hello from beautiful New Mexico 🐎
Nice rendition of a great song! So much natural beauty in this country. Thanks again for sharing!
We all need a little beauty and serenity right about now - thanks for helping bring it into our world
Cat and coffee, are a great way to a day!
😍
I spent a summer packing mules at Noth lake in the 90's. Always good to see that country again. Thanks!
We are so excited!!! We are headed that way the 6th of May. We’re going to Yosemite, Kings Canyon, Sequoia and Death Valley. Beautiful country out there. I can’t wait to see it.
Me too have a safe trip!
You as well!!! If gas prices don’t keep us at the airport 😱
I'm heading that way in the next couple of weeks. Doing some camping in the Alabama Hills. Anyway, the last time I was there, I had my 10 month-old Jack Russell Terrier with me. I stopped at that same restaurant, Mt. Whitney, and asked if it was cool for me to sit outside with Amigo. The temp was around 100, but I live in Phoenix, so that's a kind of nice day, dontchaknow. Well, the waitress would have none of THAT!!! She said, "Don't be silly! You can sit out here, but he can come in!", and laughed and laughed, and then led us in. Threw in a chicken finger for m'boy, too. Definitely having some grub there before I pitch my camp! ---- Love your vids. Pleasing views and vistas, and you're easy on the eyes, as well. Muchas Gracias, Señora Nómada.
What a fun day. The views of the mountains were lovely.. My husband Fred has a great eye for sunsets too. They really do make an amazing ending to the day. Thank you for sharing. Mary💕Fred
Home......I spent my high school years in Bishop....thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Woke up every morning to see Mt. Tom, Basin Mtn, and Mt Humphreys to the west. I live in Great Falls, MT and hike/fish the high country here and in WY, but I still miss hiking and fishing in my native Sierras......
Outstanding scenery there ..... You always capture the beauty of nature, Ms Gregory .... "Thank You" for sharing it with the rest of us .....
WOW! I watched about 20 videos before I found EXACTLY what I wanted. THIS! Great Video! This is how it should be done! I love 395!
The California Miwok named the Sierra "Kayopha"-- the sky and the peaks that touch it!
I grew up as a kid living in Rancho Cucamonga going to the eastern sierra every summer hiking and fishing I still love it.
You're a lucky kid, Catherine -- what a great life! Thanks again.
Love the stillness & serenity of the winter months in the mountains 🏔. ❤️👍🏻
Catherine. My wife are long time watchers. By Tuttle Creek there is an amazing short hike to the Tuttle Creek Ashram. Beautiful location if you have never been. 36°32.9451'N 118°11.6289'W
Also off Glacier Lodge road you can turn right onto Sugar Loaf Rd. Nice camping here to.
37°9.2543'N 118°20.7120'W
I’ve been climbing in Owens Gorge for 25 plus years. Areas is always a new surprise of new finds. Enjoy
You are so inspiring, I'm going to the Grand Canyon next Thursday with Grand son and son, thanks to you.
Always look forward to your videos to see what beautiful place you're staying. The music and camera work is amazing as always and the promotion flowed beautifully like a natural part of the video.
Thank you very much!
When the pass opens, I think I may have to venture over to the east side. Thanks for the inspiration. Stay warm and dry.
Thanks again for another beautiful and magical video.
Okay, I know this is goofy, but I like the fact that you use 5 minute oats instead of 1 minute quick oats.
Great video as usual and beautiful scenery.
Planning a trip to that area next May! Love the video!
Love those small towns and the museum was cool. Another place added to the list of places to visit. I am going to need a bigger notebook. Thank you for another great video.
Yes, the museum was definitely cool. I'm adding also to my list. 👍
I worked with a fan of the old films done in the Alabama Hills. She had a HUGE box of videos that I got to watch!
Thank you! This was exactly what my spirit needed to refresh from the current news cycle. I’m so grateful for your content, kindness, and generosity of spirit. You are helping inspire others to preserve nature by introducing spots and making the process of getting out there seem accessible.
As always, love your videos. Thank you for for putting in the work and sharing with us all. Keep them coming 👍
As always, another beautiful video. Always look forward to your adventures.
Awesome Country and Great Video!!
So enjoyable! You are making the journey and we are hope-ing.
Always inspiring... Thanks, Cat! 🏞🌄
Beautiful! Thank u!
What a great place. I went there for work and but live in the bay area. Love the 395! Spent my 20's backpacking and traveling all over the Sierra's. You rock! Noe in my early 50's I need to get back out and this channel inspires me!
Another awesome video, beautiful area.
The snow-capped Sierras are absolutely gorgeous! As always, you really captured its breathtaking beauty. No wonder it's one of your favorite places to visit. Thanks for the visit to the museum which showed all of the movies, cameras, costumes, cars, and wagons on many a Western adventure movie. Jenny
Been there, love the area! Breathtaking views! As usual, another wonderful vlog, thanks Cat!
What a great video! We've been traveling up 395 for over 50 years and never get tired of it's magic. We were so glad to see it again with you because our rig is waiting for some maintenance before we can go again. With the cost of traveling skyrocketing we appreciate your efforts all that much more. Be safe out there and see you on the next one!! XO
We had a great time and great meal outdoors. :)
Journey well! You live a beautiful life.
Beautiful 🥰🥰 I love your food choices!
Beautiful scenery. ❤️
Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Such majestic views and scenery. Makes me yearn to travel west for some hiking and photography in my favorite places on planet earth. Nothing recharges the mind and body better than trips to places like this. Your video skills and choice of music in this one were super!
Super cool...
Just added places to my bucket list
One thing I love about your videos is that you give us as much information about the campgrounds you stay at. You're such an amazing woman. Keep finding your peaceful spots and keep smiling 😃
Too Good. Thanks
I’ve never been to that part of California. This video definitely solidifies my need to go out there.
You will love it!!
Such amazing places
Just beautiful, the whole thing! Love the places you go and your sensitivity. Ive said before, love the music! You give me so many ideas to go and paint for my channel - thank you!
"You are the magnet, I am the steel." Isn't that by the 70s band Pablo Cruise? You're not old enough to know that era. Congrats to you if you are.
Hi lovely video from you. It's amazing mountains. I love it❤🙋♀️💞🙏
Catherine, another beautiful video. I watch several RV videos and what I find is most ppl just camp, meaning the don't enjoy the terrain. You do it right. Good job.
Thanks Catherine!
WHAT A WAY TO START MY DAY OFF THANK YOU
I love the beauty, calmness and great soothing music in your videos🥰 All around class act!!!
I always enjoy your videos, thank you so much for sharing with us. Yes I do live vicariously through your videos. However one day I plan to do as you do. . It’s always a good idea for your health to throughly wash/rinse off your produce before consumption. Sometimes it even says it on the package in tiny little letters.
I do. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing.👍
Very nice video and scenery! I will have to get out there one day! Thank you.
Keep going, Cat !! Your travels are an inspiration.
What epic views at both camping sites! Incredible shots!
Beautiful places and good food! Thanks for bringing us along! 🤙
gorgeous scenery! So glad you shared it with me while i had coffee this morning
Thank you for this video. I backpacked in this area almost 40 years ago now. It's nice to see it in your work. Blessings. 😎❤👍
Thank you for the film museum tour. Great video. Keep up your great work.
WOW Cat,
Those mountains are awesome. I have always wanted to get on top of Mt Whitney. Might need to plan a hiking/prospecting trip soon.
Thanks for sharing Catherine love your videos and how well you communicate your thoughts and realities with us.
Beautiful
Great video
