Spent a few days out in the Utah Desert, took a day trip down a very narrow slot canyon cooked some food, and enjoyed the views Buy me a Coffee (Patreon Equivalent) www.buymeacoffee.com/xanderbu... IG: @xanderbudnick Music: @afternoonhue
Holy crap!!! I'm not claustrophobic...or at least I didn't think I was...but that canyon really weirded me out!! Thanks for the great video...beautiful landscapes!!!
I got so excited and legit started jumping in my chair, seeing that Xander Bander uploaded a new video. It's a real treat to follow you along and share a little part of your adventures. Please don't stop making videos! Thank you!
Wow, that was intense for someone like me with claustrophobia. I was worried about ya there for a minute. Even though I'd never go through something like that, it sure is a beautiful spot in this country ✌️🙌
I actually had to fast forward through part of this because I felt claustrophobic. what a strange feeling. you're a brave soul Xander. You do take chances that I wish you wouldn't though. enjoy life and stay safe my friend.
Hey Xander, first of all amazing content as always, then i wanted to suggest a video idea that might please a lot of us, I'm talking about a video of your prep for the longer adventures, like the 10 days in the winter, meal prep, gear, planning, this kind of stuff, I think it would be really cool and helpful for us :)
Really happy i found your channel. I struggle with my mental health, and when my depression takes hold, i have a tendency to want to disappear in to the wilderness. With a wife, 2 kids and a full time job, I cant really do that, but your videos allow me to have the experience vicariously. I hope one day to follow your path on some of these adventures!
I live in Northern Arizona on the Navajo Nation & these parts of the Southwest are so familiar & spectacular! The landscapes are panoramic and sacred. I am enjoying your visit and watching your adventures with excitement. Enjoy & be safe.
Ha, I can only imagine trying to film yourself through those tight squeeze canyons! As a tv producer I really appreciate the extra effort to get the shots! Not to mention how many scratches you probably got on your gear...and yourself! Thanks for the video!
This brought back some crazy memories for me! My parents took me and my siblings down there and we hiked PeekaBoo and Spooky slot canyons. I remember it getting reeeaally sketchy and I don’t know how my parents kept their cool getting all of us young kids through but we made it through!
I so envy you Xander. My life is dogshit and it feels like I'll never be happy again. But watching videos like this reminds me that there are things worth working towards. Thank you for making these videos Xander.
Such a cool and spooky place! How beautiful it is. Those fries were beautiful, too. Cattle were a little rude. You knew they were cattle, right?😊 Thanks again for taking us along.
Man I love these videos. I'm from Toronto and I love all your canoe/camping videos, but these are on another level. Camping in that setting is amazing and I hope you do more out of province. I still love Ontario though and always will.
Amazing video, Xander. The trip through that canyon was both beautiful and scary. Hope the change in scenery has been as exciting for you as it has been for us viewers! Cheers from Toronto!
"🎶Dumb ways to die 🎶" rolling through my head as I desperately gasp for breathe the whole time lol So glad you made it out of there! Thanks for sharing this adventure 🥰
My anxiety was thru the roof during a few of those tight sections!! I would love to do it, but only if I knew there was a 1000% chance of coming out on the other side. Great stuff, as usual, Xander! Cheers!
Freaking awesome Xander! And terrifying! Utah makes me think of the book the Monkey Wrench Gang - those canyons and gullies are so amazing. Glad you came out unstuck!
wicked video bro appreciate the time and effort you put into them im not sure if people know but you had to place the camera down and re walk the narrow gully epic work
Xander it’s exciting to know that you’re experiencing a new environment and I can’t wait to experience the adventures this trip will present. It’s always enjoyable to see you actually being human and experiencing claustrophobia! Please note that the only viable contribution to food in Utah is Fry Sauce.
Thats such a tight fir lol. I wouldn't be making it through that's for sure. Another amazing vid capturing another fantastic location. Xander as always thank for sharing. Looked amazing.
I was actually thinking exactly the same thing as some of the previous comments, I see that you have a new video and I get excited to watch it because I’m super enjoying your newest adventures! Keep it up, and keep cooking some cool stuff, I love the food aspect too!
Just went to Kolob Canyon in Zion, Utah. Great place for just a day hike or a multiple day backpacking trip. Highly recommend it. Stunning rock features that I can’t even wrap my head around
XANDER! You make amazing videos!! This slot canyon video had me holding my breath with nervousness. Your humor is great. I love how you say at the end of your videos “Have a great day”. Keep up the awesomeness! Defiantly a fan!!
It's so beautiful out there, the way nature has been shaped by the elements is amazing. I've stopped and asked cows for directions too, they're not the best at conversation 😅
So happy you're in Utah, I love Utah I never will see it or hike it but I really enjoy all the people who can and do. Thank You for sharing your experience in Utah to me it's the most unique state we have.
Thumbs up for the dedication to get certain shots in that environment. Placing the camera ahead, walking back, and then walking back toward it. Nice work.
Another GREAT video Xander. Looking forward to seeing more. Just found your channel, watched all your previous videos here and big now fan. All the best from Steve in the UK 🇬🇧 👍
That waa An amazing formation nothing. I would ever see in person but I appreciate that you pushed yourself through it so we could. Just incredible! Thanks so much enjoying your trip to the southwest. Blessings From the grandma in portland oregon.
Life is extremely hard right now. Lost my job, went from making 45$ an hour to 18$ an hour, bills are still based around that 45$ income. Working 160 hours a pay period to try to stay on top of things. Got cheated on and am finding myself exiting a 5 year marriage with a two year old son. Moved into my own place. Life is extremely quiet, and I can’t really get out to enjoy the mountains which I relied on to make me happy, so these videos allow me to get out in a way. Things will get better as long as I keep moving forward, I appreciate the content, showing off places without shoving ads down our throats. Your great, keep up the awesome content. While I may not be able to afford it at the time being or have the time, i can’t wait to get back out in the mountains.
Great video as always, thank you for sharing these journeys with us and inspiring many others to seek adventure on their own! You're a huge inspiration for me!
I think it's the combination of how curvy it is (unable to see fare ahead or behind) and those little bumps on the walls that make it feels so much worse for me. I'm not claustrophobic, but there definitely is a touch of unease watching this. Awesome video as always
Awesome as always, yikes 😬 😳 I wouldn't have been able to make it through there. You're petty brave. Have five for not giving up. KEEP ADVENTURING GOD BLESS YOU
I would be literally screaming in sheer panic with full-blown claustrophobia. This was so difficult for me to watch. Fox bless you for being the brave soul that I am not.
