Join us on our trips around the US. I painstakingly scheduled every stop and adventure, although there is always a little bit of scheduled wiggle room for unexpected finds and issues that may pop up.
Poche’s RV park was owned And started by My Grandfather years ago. My uncle sold it a few years ago. It’s nice to see it on RU-vid videos from time to time I grew up here and it was the best trines of my life
Oh wow that’s so cool your grandfather started Poche’s! The first thing I thought was what a great place it was for families so I can only imagine how much fun you had growing up in the area. What an awesome experience for you.
Great videos, Thanks Years ago I came up with a new word while hiking Teton NP........Bearanoia I will be back there this August. Getting psyched watching your videos
Hi, there from the Uk, we are arriving in Yellowstone in June, your videos will help us plan a great trip, the footage and the editing are superb , what equipment did you use to film everything?
Thank you! I highly recommend getting the Guide Along App for your visit, it is very informative about the history and science of the area making the scenic drives even more interesting and it also gives good advice on where to pullover to get the best views. For our footage we only used GoPros in the car and IPhones for hikes and scenery. The trick is holding your phone with both hands, with the four fingers stabilizing underneath and thumbs on top, then keep your elbows lightly bent to absorb your steps and you have become a human gimbal. I hope that makes sense. I hope you have a great time here in the US and in Yellowstone!
Fun video. What a lot of fun food. I like that you had planned out what you were going to do and eat. Could you share with me the form you use for planning trips? I'd love to use something like that.
You really can’t go wrong with either, there are so many good spots to watch sunrise and sunset in the park it’s really hard to choose the best, but if I absolutely had to…I would probably pick sunrise.
So the Tetons are interesting because sunrise and sunset locations are pretty much the same because the mountains are the pretty focal point for both, the one exception is Mormon Row which is better for sunrise. So the places we like for both sunrise and sunset are Oxbow Bend, Schwabacher Landing, and Snake River Overlook. We had a harder time with sunrises and sunsets in Yellowstone just because we were limited on time so we had to get right into our days. Artist Point is one of the most popular sunrise spots but I bet sunset would be good too, We have seen really pretty sunrises at West Thumb Basin with the turquoise pools and the lake in the background. We don’t catch too many sunsets but I would think most of the geysers basins like Old Faithful would be a good location. Not sunrise or sunset related but the Grand Prismatic overlook is best in the mid afternoon on a clear day, when the sun is directly overhead it brings more of the colors of the pool out.
Funny you mentioning the hikes seem tougher due to the altitude, we come from the seacoast of NH and when we went to Bryce Canyon, just walking up some of the look outs had us wiped out. Going from sea level to 8000' makes a huge difference, plus being out of shape didn't help.
Yes, it’s something I didn’t even consider before this trip. I thought I was in decent shape walking and lifting weights at home, but the elevation on what are labeled easy hikes said otherwise. 😊
We were actually there after they reopened from Covid and before they introduced Genie+ so it was all standby and the lines were short all day long. Their Genie+ system really makes it more complicated and the wait times much longer. I don’t think we got the Disney quality durning that time but I do really appreciate that we were able to skip the Genie+ mess and were able to ride all the rides very easily.
Oh wow! It was an experience we will never forget, as I’m sure is the same for you. I’m so glad you also had a stranger that was able to take action and help you.
Lived there for about 3 years in the late 70s, early 80s. If I wasn't on a rig I was in the Gaslight 3. I remember eating at Soups in Milton and going to (Cowgirls?) after the other bars closed. our apartment was off Eraste Landry and we'd take a keg to the pool on a Saturday. Pretty soon people were showing up with grills, food, music and everything else. It was a great time.
I am an Australian. This is my up-tempo love song for one of my favourite places in the world. Nashville, Tennessee. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mWWpxV6mGao.html
There are 3 apps that I have tried, Just Ahead, Guide Along, and Shaka Guide. They are all similar, each guide just has a different personality, and the stories very just slightly. I like Guide Along the best, he is a perfect mix between the other two. Just ahead is very dry, just gives you the basic information with no personality, the Shaka Guide woman is a little over the top like an kindergarten teacher you would see in a movie, but she did grow on me. Guide Along tells informative stories with a few dad jokes, and I have purchased their other tours for other national parks as well. Reception isn’t an issue for the apps because you download them before entering the parks when you have Wi-Fi and then the gps works without any cell service, I don’t know the exact technology of it, but you don’t loose reception from the tour. Hope this information helps.
Twice now my wife and I have visited Nashville from New Zealand. We have a third trip planned for May 2024 and another visit in October 2025 for the Opry’s centenary. Two other places you may have found interesting. Fort Neagly on Nashville’s southern ridge will give a much different understanding of the events of the Civil War, and Andrew Jackson’s Hermatige is a time capsule of America’s 7th President. Both are worth a visit.
Thank you. If you have room to bring bikes it might be a good idea, it will make some of the “hikes” shorter and if your kids are like mine they can get a little grumpy on long hikes, and there are quite a few bike trails in Yellowstone including at Old Faithful as well as a bike path in the Grand Tetons that we haven’t done yet but would love to do one day.
Love your videos. Thanks for such great info! I'm so excited for my family's first trip to Yellowstone June 2024! And I feel more prepared watching your channel! :)
Thank you so much, I’m glad they helped. June should be a good month for your family to see all the animals coming back out after winter, I hope you have an amazing trip.
We went in May, but in 2021 right when things were opening back up from Covid so it might have been quieter because of that. It wasn’t overwhelming with people and it felt pretty safe when we were there. I definitely would recommend renting a car if you want to go out and explore, things are pretty spread out. The murals we visited on our own, I found a website that listed them and added them to my google maps and visited them along with anything else in that same area. This website has a list of them www.visitmusiccity.com/trip-ideas/nashville-murals I hope you have a great trip when you visit.
Hi, thank you for the video. Question - did u have to pay for the mural tour? Do you have to spend all whole day at honky tonk or just for a night? And so rental car is a must to visit nashville? Thank you
