Canyonlands National Park is split into three districts, with the most popular being Island in the Sky and the most difficult to reach being The Maze. The Needles District falls right in the middle as it is easy to access but not near as popular as Island in the Sky. I have been to both and found that both were well worth exploring. This video showcases the one day my dad and I spent in the park. During that time we hiked the Cave Springs Trail, visited Pothole Point and drove the Elephant Hill Trail. Let me know what your favorite spot is in the comments.

You do a great job. Wonderful that your dad can be with you. Even tho it’s a nice guitar I would prefer with no music. The landscape has a voice of its own. I know, that’s one persons opinion but it’s at least worthy of consideration. Thanks again for bringing this incredible landscape to those of us who can no longer make the trip. We can make it with you any time we feel like it.

Thank you so much. I always look forward to the notifications for your upcoming episodes. I can only wonder about the history of the area & also how many western movies were made there. Again, Thankyou & safe travels from Adelaide, South Australia.

The Chesler Park Loop, combined with Druid Arch is beyond amazing. Next time, you should do it.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

I would love to, hopefully next time!

Four wheeling over Elephant Hill is the way to get to the best areas in The Needles. Devil's Kitchen has very cool campsites, #4 is best IMO. Chesler Park is beautiful and the view of the confluence of the Colorado and Green Rivers is awesome. The hike to Druid Arch is over 10 miles round-trip, but definitely worth the effort. Can't wait to get back there again this October.

@DovieRuthAuthor 2 года назад

Awesome video! I heard that the Elephant Hill Road is so treacherous that it's faster to walk it than drive. Haha!

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

haha good to know!

@davidnewhouse9403 2 года назад

Looks amazing Josh. Can’t wait for the next road trip video

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Got the full Utah one coming in a few weeks and just finished Pacific Coast Highway road trip as well (prob a few months for that one though)

@davidnewhouse9403 2 года назад

@@ThroughMyLens Take your time. I’m hoping you guys will do a east coast road trip with Pennsylvania and a few other states in there. That would be great to do in the fall.

@davidlundquist1979 2 года назад

I was just in Canyonlands in February, and visited the Needles for the first time. I also got a little lost at Pothole Point, though not for long. I somehow missed the Cave Springs Trail completely, but you guys seem to have missed what I thought was the most impressive day hike, the Slickrock Foot Trail that starts just up the hill from the end of the road. It's 2.4 miles round trip, without much elevation change. Though there are enough little up and downs that my legs, which were still sore from hiking the Landscape Arch and Delicate Arch trails in Arches the day before, were protesting by the end. Anyway, great video! The zoom in my camera isn't nearly as good as yours, so I just got a much better view of the actual Needles than when I was there in person.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Bummer, we will need to go back and do that hike! Totally missed it

@passingthroughtime3033 2 года назад

Approx 20 years ago we were driving through needles, and I got a hefty ticket for no seatbelt. The cop was hiding behind a pile of rocks and sand. I was mad about it for years.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

haha that is a bummer!

@reisingup 2 года назад

My daughter and I just drove across the country and stopped at many national parks and enjoyed all of them so much! We may have to go for another cross country trek and visit this park and others we missed. This looks like a really beautiful park!...btw shoe head really does look like a shoe👞!

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

So many national parks to explore! Always a good time for another road trip 😀

@kevinstrahle9687 2 года назад

Very cool especially newspaper rock. Looks like a very under estimated part of the park for now. So how would you rate the mighty 5 favorite to least in your opinion. I understand they each have there own beauty

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

In the main video that I will put out soon on the trip we recorded our thoughts on which we liked the best but I think it was Arches, Bryce, Zion, Canyonlands and Capitol Reef for me. All of them are so amazing though

@jokeroneninesevenzero 2 года назад

Awesome rocks, definitely looks like a shoe. I love trying to find rocks that look like things in my area. Great video Josh!

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Thanks 👍

@ginkarasu 2 года назад

Hey Josh, I'm rather new to the channel, and I was wondering if you are going to upload one big video featuring all these videos, as you did with the Route 66 and Alaska videos? Or is it a new format.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Yep, I will have one big video of the entire trip but I like to make videos of each national park on their own as well

@CESmith 2 года назад

Nicely done! Love the trail to Chessler Park, I'd recommend everyone start the trail even if you are only there for a short bit. It's a steep climb out of the canyon but the views at the top are amazing.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips! I hope to do it next time

@PickUps 2 года назад

PLEASE state the town and the state somewhere in the beginning of the video, the title, or the desc. This is maybe the 3rd one in a row ive skipped because i dont wanna google where it is. cheers

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

Thanks for the suggestion!

@joewenzel5142 2 года назад

It just dawned on me did they name the town of Needles after those needle rocks? Or is this place no where near there. I'm watching a movie simultaneously and am a little distracted.

@ThroughMyLens 2 года назад

The town of Needles in CA has its own rocks called the needles actually
