#14!!! Did a 4x4 wheelin' trip in Death Valley in 2023 and ended up in Lone Pine. The Alabama Hills Cafe was absolutely awesome! Definitely on my GO-TO list for next year.
Thank you my home sweet home. I cli.bed Whitney in 1966 when I was 17. So beautiful up there. Didn't need a permit back then . Very nice video. And there is even so much more to see there. Tuttle Creek,and Lubken Road. Hope to see more. Thanks again.
Thorough and spot on, went there a few years ago and realized months later that I just 'skimmed' the surface of the Lone Pine arena, which was a good thing, cause now I got to go back! Thank you for highlighting my misses.
I absolutely love lone pine! Loved your tour, been to 12 of the 14. But you have my interest to see the remaining 2. Also Alabama Cafe is fantastic, never miss a chance to eat there if they are open. Thanks
I have been going to the eastern Sierra for over 20 years and I can say this video is a very well done and is a great representation of the attractions around Lone Pie. Great Job!
Thanks for this video. I have a problem when adults climb and walk across the arches, your weight could break the arches, not only do you ruin it for others to see but you could get hurt if the arch breaks.
Very good video for both narrative and video. During the 1950s, I spent a lot of time as my dad's shadow in adjoining Inyo and Esmeralda counties while he prospected for uranium. I have memories of some of your locations. Thanks for the journey to the past!!!
Another iconic arch in the Alabama Hills is Boot Arch, which is only about 1/4 miles NNE of Cyclops Arch. I've done night photography at Boot, but I haven't visited Cyclops yet.
Loved this video. I lived out there for a couple of months in late 2017. Wish I saw it then. Never knew so much to do. Yeah Alabama Hills Cafe. One of my go 2 spots. Not like there's much but loved this lil town. There's was a Mexican spot a Chinese spot. Hiking and fishing and lots of work. Great Experience
@@Active_Tours i forget its been so long. I think Bonanza was the Mexican spot. I liked that place too. There was a old time like malt shop at the end of town. Never got to try it. We went there once my buddy got it. Looked good. I think he got a chili dog. Then they closed for winter. Our boss would buy us dinner everynight. There was only a couple restaurants to choose from. A McDonald's and a Carl's jr too. Good old Lone Pone. It was quite the experience. I had fun.
Nice list! We loved camping at The Alabama Hills- definitely lots to do and see in this area. Lone Pine Lake looks gorgeous! I agree with you on Manzanar - very humbling. They did a fantastic job on the visitor center.
Active Tours thank you! That’s a hard question to answer! We love so many places. How about “anywhere but home”? Butano State Park, Tinnemaha, Frenchman Lake, Railroad Park, Jalama, New Melones Lake, any Harvest Hosts - love them all!
Very late to this video but have to agree with comment below. "Tread Lightly" is a term, along with "Pack in and Pack Out," are commonly used by off roaders and adventure seekers. Your disregard for the fragility of the arches is concerning. It should not be done or shared with others as something "to do" in Alabama Hills.
Nice and please visit the arches in Newfoundland canada ..on way to the great northern peninsula on the west coast of that province " Newfoundland " ..or go to utube and type in " iceberg ally twillingate " ...this is where I live ...iceberg capital of the world ...you all take care and get safe .
i'm here because i flew over Lone Pine in MS Flight Simulator (one of the bush trips) and wondered what was down there. Wonderful, thanks for the tour.
