I'm in Sequoia National Park! Sequoia National Park is in the southern end of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California and is just south of Kings Canyon National Park.
I drive through the Tunnel Log and then visit the Auto Log, a tree so large, cars used to park on it. Then I climb to the top of Moro Rock for some of the best views of Sequoia National Park. Then I make a simple dinner and enjoy a campfire and a tasty beverage.
Please make sure to watch part 1!
My new day pack hiking backpack: amzn.to/2MSYlPs
I'm currently camped at Azalea Campground in Kings Canyon National Park. This is a really nice campground that is first-come-first-serve in the off season. It is reservation only from the end of May to the beginning of September. The majority of the campground was blocked off during the off season so there were only about 25-30 spots available.

So relaxing to watch you at camp, fixing dinner, having a brew and a campfire. My favorite part of RVing. Love your videos.

@thizizliz 2 года назад

Yeah, steep paths are calorie burners for sure. Awesome day. So beautiful up there for sure.lovely.

@stevenearls2456 2 года назад

That trail going up to morro rock was great! Hats off to the national park service and the people who built it. Nice music selection Bex. Love your videos. Thanks again for bring us along.

@ByGraceIGo 2 года назад

Actually it was the Civil Conservation Corps who built it. Many times the National Park doesn't have the actual Manpower so they get these other organizations to do it. Like the Army Corps of Engineers they also do stuff like this. And yes of course job was done! I never knew this place existed.

@darcibeckford6848 2 года назад

I just love your videos. You have such a calm and happy disposition, and I love your quirky gentle humour. I love going on adventures with you! (ok, virtually ... but, still).

Hi from Tennessee. Another beautiful video. Wow what a view. Thanks for sharing that fantastic with us. Have a great day.

@3generations393 2 года назад

You never fail at making my day with your videos. Thank you Bex-even if I were physically able to climb/walk that far-ha-I would be at the top of that mountain until they rescued me! I get nauseated when the camera looks over the edge-there is NO WAY I could ever walk back down. At a younger more agile time in my life-I wore out a brand new pair of jeans sliding/crawling on my butt down a "steep to me" incline. So thankful you take me safely with you 👍🙏💞🙋

Driving and walking through the forest was like the land of the giants. Amazing hike to the top of the mountain, almost scary at times, quite the drop off. Thanks for sharing the adventure.

@jerrelc.thomas336 2 года назад

Again, awesome part 2 thanks so much that was beautiful, and enjoyed watching you do the hike.. 👍😊

@judyabernathy80 2 года назад

Absolutely gorgeous scenery. Wish I was there, as well. Bex, you look very well these days. I like your hair long. And, the length also looks pretty when you wear your blue cowgirl hat. Glad you are having a good time. Don’t be a stranger. Love your videos. ♥️

My Dad and I used to go to Sequoia National Park a lot. Many times to Bear Paw High Sierra Camp. We started at crescent meadow for a 11.5 miles hike, only way there and back. I have very fond memories.

Wow, amazing, breathtaking views. Showing the sharp decent of the rock made my knees wobbly. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you for sharing to someone in UK Yorkshire 🥰😊

@pennywawiorka6431 2 года назад

Wonderful👍 it's amazing to me how they built all the steps and protection railing all the way up. I would surely be hanging on for dear life😯

@leann4925 2 года назад

Part 2 is just as great as part 1 but it would take me two days to get up to the top. What a view and could see snow on top of some of the mountains. Bex thank you so much as I truly enjoyed. I was much younger when I started to watch your videos and at 72 they are still amazing.

@sovereignsaint5013 2 года назад

You are SO adorable. That sweet comment about the lizard is totally something I would say! 😂 And wow, no words for the breathtaking giants of old and that hike to and view from the top. Simply majestic..🙊..all praise, glory and thanks to the Most High God, the Creator, for blessing us with this most precious of gifts! I pray that one day I, too, will be able to live my own Bex life as a solo female nomad! Safe travels and many blessings to you..🙏✝️💚🤗🌲🌳🌿☘

@rebeccagremmel6263 2 года назад

Thank you for climbing to the top. Just amazing views. I wouldn’t be able to make it to the top so it was wonderful to go on your journey with you. Think the number of steps is equivalent to about 25 flights of stairs, so about 50 altogether. You’re in great shape! Thanks for the excellent video!

@carmentaylor3706 2 года назад

The spanish word for tree is árbol. Love your videos, congratulations on making it to the top, my husband and I are planning a trip up there as soon as it’s cooler.

@jessicafuller9170 Год назад

I gotta tell you Bex that I made it to Kings Canyon, Sequoia and Yosemite Parks 2 weeks ago. I too walked the Congress Trail, the next day climbed the steps up Moro Rock. My friend and I also drove to End of the Road in Kings, found Muir Rock and went in Boyden Cavern! It was a wonderful trip and those trees were certainly something to see at least once in a lifetime! Thanks to you, I am inspired to go adventuring! Thank you Bex…hope you are well!

@tomcaldwell5750 2 года назад

Get behind the rail before you fall off the edge! 😀 LOL, just kidding. Just watching the video made me have a vertigo feeling for a second. As always great video. Thank you, Bex.

@lisacolbert5987 2 года назад

I always think of all of the things that have happened in the world since a huge tree fell . Heck , what was going on in the world when it was just a sapling . Thanks Bex !

Thanks for sharing. Great filming & just right narrative. Because of "advanced maturity" I'll probably not get there in person, sharing your adventure is the next best thing!

@ByGraceIGo 2 года назад

Thank you so much Bex for sharing all of these places. Many places I didn't even know existed. I mean I knew about Sequoia National Forest oh, but I did not know about Moro Rock! That was pretty freaking amazing the Civilian Conservation corps did a great job carving out those amazing steps to help make a safe Trail for people to see that fantastic gorgeous view! I never had any desire to go to California, but now I have second thoughts once all the Smoke Clears. Someday I would like to have a little camper and drive out to places like that. I don't know if anyone is reading my comments. I love getting tucked up in bed and watching your videos!

@patsykluting-lucas3804 2 года назад

@pollydunn3191 2 года назад

You should have at least a million subscribers. You do such a great job with your video taking. I love how you just go for it. I am worried sometimes that your going to be eaten by a bear or mountain lion. I hope you are letting your family know where you are at all times in case something happens. Keep up the good work. Also love watching you cook and enjoying your meal that you've earned after all your vigorous hikes. 👍

Went in winter one year and many of the roads were closed. Still hiked out to Morro Rock but ice covered the stairs so never made it up there. Did hike up to the fallen tree and like you stood under the roots. Took a fantastic picture of a coyote that was in the parking lot to the General Sherman.
