Thank you for watching ! We went last September . Great time to go , we started at 8:30 am and if we remember correctly It was a Wed. 😀😀 this is an epic canyon hike !
How are you beating the heat ? We took to the coast for cooler weather and some beach Activities !😀😀 Southern California has world class beaches, hotels and coastlines, go explore your own backyard 🙌😃😃🙌
Great video! The hiking adventures look fantastic and offer a perfect escape into nature. You’ve captured the beauty of these outdoor day trips beautifully. Thanks for sharing such nice locations! 💕
Wow thank you ! That means alot! Oregon Has so many beautiful places to visit these were just the tip of the iceberg! Thank you so much for watching! 😀😀
You should Check out our full length video from the short or the channel, and see how epic this place really is. The thumb nail says “surfing Cedar Creek Falls” thank as always for watching
I have visited Bend a dozen times over the last 20 yrs and have two more planned visits in the next several months. Even with all of that I can not help myself and am constantly looking for youtube videos on Bend - LOL. Thanks for sharing - this is a great video with really good and well rounded suggestions for a Bend trip.
Thank you! We are so glad you enjoyed our video . There is so much to do in Bend and we love that awesome hiking trails are so close. Good to hear you found this video helpful! Enjoy your next trips! 😀😀
Wow, that’s terrifying 👀 Whilst hiking last year in France I nearly stood on an adder. I saw it at the last second and managed to land my foot to the side of it, then it slithered off thankfully
Oh wow that must have been a heart stopper ! 😳😳glad you are ok! We had no idea that guy was there until a couple of viewers watched our full length video of Matilija Falls and pointed it out to us at 3:09 min in !! We about jumped out of our seats 👀👀
@@hikebytes thanks I'lll check that out i mean it looks like the cleanest water in LA that I've seen lol, but its still LA so wanna make sure, would love to go have a swim
Awesome ! Hint the further upstream you go the cleaner the water would be away from the crowds . Towards Bridge to nowhere . We would stay away from the Oakes picnic area. That place is very over crowded. Hope this helps! 😀😀
@@hikebytes cool thanks! will def keep that in mind. If I may ask another question, is there more parking spots along the way too or is it better to park like at the picnic area or something then walk up?
Park at the Bridge to Nowhere parking lot if there is parking. There should be if you go early in the morning . We were there around 7:30 or 8:00 am . Make sure you have an Adventure Pass $5 for the day or $30 for the year . You can pick them up at REI , Big 5 and some 7 Elevens in that area .Only oark where parking is allowed otherwise you may get towed! 😳😳
Awesome Video! What day of the week did you go? I'd love to check this spot out some time but concerned that there might be too many people on a typically warm, sunny weekend.
Hi and thank you for watching! We went on a Wed. Very early in the morning around 7:30 and it was a hot day so the sun was shining and water felt amazing ! There are more pools up stream towards Bridge to Nowhere too .. enjoy ! 😀😀
I’ve never been to Oregon, but for sure is on my list of places to visit. What a beautiful scenery!! Thank you for sharing and I’m so happy to hear that you’re going to be a grandparent!!
Oregon is amazing, we have had many incredible adventures there, but had not started our channel yet. This vlog covers easy access hikes because of the baby coming, could not be too far away and no cell service. He is a cute healthy amazing boy. Are you a grandfather yet ?
Hi, welcome 😀😀 we put an all trails link with directions to the trail head of Bridge to Nowhere and the vlog shows the trail down to the San Gabriel River. All we did was follow the river downstream until we found swim holes and rock pools we liked. The last spot is about 1/2 mile downstream. Hope that helps 🙌🙌
Oregon is so different than California. We Love both states 🙌🤩🤩 we recommend Bend (Central Oregon) for gorgeous outdoor adventure. We offered many LINKS in our video description to help you find your way around to excellent dinning and activities if your planning a vacation over there. Thanks for watching 🤩😎
