The Big Rock Site, Part 1, Monterey County - California 

As someone living in Seaside, California you've really helped me appreciate my own neighborhood.

I live in marina and I am guilty of not appreciating the pure beauty of where I live. I take it for granted at times but when I do get out there I'm always blown away by the pure beauty of my home

I love watching your videos Alex! The history is amazing, and you present each video with such peace, tranquility, and mysticism! The beauty of these places are breath taking! You have absolutely some of the best videos on RU-vid by far. Thank you so much my friend for all your investigative, and foot research! ♥️💯👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🖐🖐🖐

Me gustan mucho sus documentales y ver lugares que no conozco gracias alex

Thank you Alex for all the effort and time and education that you implement into our entertainment. Great material, your videos leaves me gazing at the Nevada mountains pondering on some deep thoughts. 👍

Love your videos Alex ! Thank You Sir!!!!!……!!!!!!……!!!!

Nice ending with those hooks! What a great find.

I know that spot well and love exploring it! Thank you for all the information! Love learning about our local history.

As always Alex I enjoyed this, thanks for what you do !

Thanks for some new videos Alex.........

I love your videos. another fine one.

Another Awesome vid, Alex! Your background music is calming and always a welcome change from the constant talking in many other channels. ( :

Like the breath of the buffalo in winter.

Awesome video!

Interesting site. Whenever I come across a mortar site, I can hear the voices of women chatting while grinding the acorns and children playing.

It's so beautiful!

Your videos are very important ı watched most of them twice

When I was young my family used to camp near that spot.

Great part 1 to this series! Thanks Alex. Will proceed to part 2 and learn more!

I love your videos and have really missed your content. Thank you for all your work to bring us along on your journey.

Danke sehr

Those hooks look pretty modern to me. Beautiful spot, though!

I love all your videos Friend! I have learned so much and used it out in the wild!

Hi Alex🙂Great presentation of interesting history. Love that you found the hook. Thank you for sharing!

My great great grandfather ran the Stage from Salinas George Irwin hallock to the hot springs late 1880 to 1900 he passed in 1926

If our attention spans are getting less and less, how do we explain the wild popularity of long form podcasts and RU-vid videos??? We crave good content. You provide that. (The corporate bigwigs want our attention spans to be small that’s why they hate RU-vid.)

Thank you, did you happen to see any water source, nearby Man needs water, and most if not all camps, would have water, If the water dried, it would be abandoned. please stay safe out there

Great video I don't know who would complain about learning and how long it would take. O wait my kids!

great site, Alex!

... Alex, I'm glad you're still getting Outdoors.... do you ever think about the plain of jars?

Such a wonderful exploration! Is that a paved road that runs near the site now?

How do you always find all these awesome sites, I’m down in Orange County and have only found one so far

Total fabrication/wrong guess about the "stage coach line." The wagon housed in the cave was kept there by settlers on the coast (Harlans/Danis) who'd drive pigs across the mountains along a trail and then hook up their wagon to ride the rest of the way into King City. Also I don't think it's right to publicly broadcast/promote visiting such places. Sure in this case it's on "public" land. But it's in a sensitive protected area-and by promoting visitation like this sooner or later you multiply the chances that someone down the line could vandalize a place or act in some other disrespectful way,. Also these aren't "sites once inhabited by...Salinans" [past tense]. This is the ancestral home of a living people. Have you asked Salinan people how they feel about you broadcasting places in their unceded ancestral home? That one "can" do something doesn't mean one necessarily should do it.

👌💥

10,000 years of stories have been told in that cave. I wonder who or what will be there 10,000 years in the future.

Displaced is a nice word for eradicated !
