I am traveling here in late September. Would this be a safe area to drive to without 4 wheel drive? Thank you so much for providing all of the information in this video

OLD Rockhound here . . . I'm no expert, but shouldn't you be using a chisel for cracking the geodes to give you a nice clean edge? It's especially good that way to preserve any crystals that might be inside. Oh, how I envy that location!

Hard to breathe down there. You guys look like you are doing better than I did

When me and my family go we bring a pick up truck and everyone gets in the bed of the truck

First time I went through the Caverns was when I was just a little kid on a family vacation. The second time was with a bud when we did a road trip up to Yellowstone and across to Mt. Rushmore.

I will pass on a 68 minute sleep for a 22 mile strenuous hike.

My great grandpa used to mine Apache tears back in 70’s-80’s. I have a bucket full of thousands of them from the size of tic tacs to larger than golf balls. It’s around 33 pounds. My mom has had this bucket sitting around since he passed away in 1999. I don’t know what to do with them I would sell them if someone was interested in them.

A lot more loose rocks than I would of imagined based on so many people use the trail. Awesome video !!!

Hey Regan, hope everything's good. It's been quite dull without your uploads.

I know this is old so may not get a response, but where did you camp prior to your hike? I was thinking Alabama Hills but since you mentioned driving down Movie Road separately I'm guessing it was not AH. Thanks for posting your hike. This one's a beast for sure.

Just came across your channel, great video. We're on vacation from Scotland in September, staying in Sedona for a week, this is the best video we've seen of this hike which we hope to do. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇲

did you know in the area you are in i found a red jasper rock the size of a house

Why didn’t you drive up

Not sure how to send a DM for coordinates. Anyone know of spots in Flagstaff area ?

I found some Indian ruins there about 40 years ago….it was a cave hidden by brush and full of artifacts. We touched nothing and left it as it was. I’ve often wondered if anybody has found it yet.

Is the white film on them natural? Can it be removed and how?

Great video, thanks for sharing.

That was really great. I like the way you showed the other climbers going up. It gave a better perspective of what the climb is actually like. We'll be there next month. Thanks for the video.

2:36 AMAZING🍑😍🥰

I love the Sonoran Desert!

I'm going to guess that you are a Pisces.

so fun

Last time we were there, down with the logbook was a lil troll doll and a 10 mm socket. Whoever put the socket in there is my hero! I remember years ago, before the aluminum ladder was installed there was a jenky rope ladder. In the 80s we went with a group that did restoration work on the cave, removing ropes and string, scrubbing graffiti. Fun work with a great group of people.

do you use 365 or 395 nm light? which one is better for scorpion hunting?

I lived in Arizona for 4 years and my sister n her husband where in the mineral business. Then I become a rock hound and fell in love with the hobby unfortunately I live in eastern Massachusetts and it’s not good Pickens here . I go up to NH in the mountains n hit the rivers it’s great hobby. I bought a flat lap n other tools do some lapidary that’s awesome

Do you really need a rope for this? The rope looks very heavy and bulky. It there any point that you felt that you could not go up/down without it. It looks like there are solid anchor points for your hands and feet. It seems that taking your time and choosing the best places to grip is the key.

If I remember the “ Mail trail” drop you down to the headwaters. You go into a dry creek bed then come to the springs that feed Fossil Creek. Almost a million gallons an hour of 68 degree ( I think) highly mineralized water come out of about a dozen springs. We used to hike there a lot when it had the dam and sluice that fed Child’s power plant off the Verde.

I love rocks and I'm pretty new at rock hunting. How do you know where to dig? And do you just leave the holes you dug or do you fill them in?

It´s a nice walk, but hardly worth a video.

"there's only one of him and two of us" till he gets the family lol😅😀 love your vidoes!!!!!!!

The McDowells are fantastic, we used to all hit the lower East wall at Pinnacle Peak back in the day, and just go from right to left doing all the short climbs, lots of times on a Saturday peaple would top rope some of them and it was great climbing.

Great video! Really seems to drive home the distance, especially the last two miles. In 3 days I will attempt my first ascent. Thanks!

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Beautiful stones. The natives would sometimes knapp arrow heads or blade from jasper when other options where scarce. Every now and then, you might find a red jasper point laying about after the monsoon washes it up.

I loved this climb when I did it

Be careful and always wear cargo pants doing these dangerous things

Found 7 of them about 6 inches long uo here in buckeye Arizona right off the white tank mountains the loves campground in high elevation

You also need to tell people the condition of these roads, please

Dude, your coordinates aren't accurate. This takes you to Robbers Roost. Your video is in the Junipers. That's 4000' elevation. There's no Junipers at those coordinates. Why you fooling us?

Super dope edit!

Namakula Tricia wow it's so beautiful

Hey Guys, great video. Those waterfalls looked like a water park attraction; but I know they were beautifully created by nature. Such a tidy camp, definitely has the woman’s touch. Why couldn’t you film in the village? Anyway, great to see you post another video. 😎✌️ from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. 😃
