Las Vegas based family of four who try to get outside and adventure as much as possible! We have our two kids: Enzo (age 7) and Ella (age 5) who (mostly) love to hike and be outdoors. We enjoy off-roading, camping, hiking, traveling to cooler weather to escape the Vegas heat(!) and visiting national parks. We have "Old Reliable," our 2001 Ford Expedition that we pack up and head out of town with. We are looking to upgrade the rig pretty soon, so we'll see...
Unfortunately, yes, and his parents were right next to him. 😡 There is a sign on the trial that says not to deface the walls, but there may have been a language barrier. Thanks for watching!
I was the oldest of 3 brothers (no sisters) and have two sons (now adults) and always like to ask fellow parents that have both genders of kids (I'm now a great grandfather 👴) if boys or girls are more work.🤔😁
Looks like a pretty cool place man. Sad to see that just like everything else in the southwest it is getting loved to death. I used to be against going to permit systems and restricting access but now? maybe not so much.
Agreed! There’s pros and cons to each. It’s much, much less crowded if you take the detour and go under the bridge! That’s next week’s video… Thanks for watching!
You’re absolutely right! Last May/June I hiked up the south side. All in all it was about 21 miles! I have a video, but I think it’d be a bit boring. I think the peak is like 11,900 feet!
All I do everyday is pray the video of me there never surfaces LOL ... water running so strong ... gorgeous AZ location. I love the history imagining Sedona and her family living there.
Imagine this place 6000 years ago what would people be doing? Is it possible they would be acting just like this with or without the $20 fee it’s possible someone was charging you money to tell you where it was
The mine operated from 1922 - 1928 and was a major producer of borax ( the major mineral in the mine was Colmanite, also know as borate). They also had a large amount of Ulexite ( the crystal veins you saw throughout the main haulage adit / tunnel level you were on) in the mine). The level you were on was on the lowest level of the mine and stretches approximately 2,500 ft. There are three levels above the level you were on each about 75 vertical feet above the other.
Wow, thanks for the information! I’ve heard that the mine is privately owned and they frown on people going into it, due to liability reasons…🤷♂️ About a half mile past the mine is Anniversary Narrows Slot Canyon, also very cool!
