The Alabama Hills are one of the most unique and beautiful landscapes in California. In addition to sitting below the stunning Sierra Nevada and serving as a backdrop for hundreds of movies and TV shows, the Alabama Hills are famous for their natural rock arches. An avid explorer can find literally thousands of arches dotting the boulder fields here: everything from holes the size of a peanut, to enormous rainbows of rock you could throw a wombat through. In this week's episode I seek out the most remote arch I can find and suss out its photographic potential.
Warning: scrambling is a potentially dangerous activity and should not be attempted by inexperienced hikers.
LNT Notice: when traveling cross-country in a desert landscape, avoid stepping on bushes, animal burrows, or any crusty soil. Travel / hike on durable surfaces like rock whenever possible. Don't pull up any dry brush to use in your campfire. Pack out all your trash and toilet paper. The land thanks you!

Of course! How could I not realize that??

Great work, why aren't you doing parts of the scouting just by flying the drone instead of climbing from ridge to ridge?
@JoshuaCrippsPhotography
@JoshuaCrippsPhotography 3 года назад
Thanks, Bernhard. And good question: I tried scouting with the drone a bit and found it's essentially impossible to see an arch from the air. And you have to be a really good pilot to be willing to fit it low among the boulders.

Love the meal in a bag. Actually surprised, though, to see you using a disposable plastic bag. Seems uncharacteristic, especially with so many insulated food canisters out there today (that will also not get accidentally punctured and make a yogurty mess in your bag!)

Cheers, Jim. A lot of time I will use tupperware but forgot to pack on one this trip. Though most of the time I wash out and reuse those heavy ziplock bags too.

Nice to see those Alabama Hills again, but surely you could look around for some music that is even less evocative of the beautiful wide-open western spaces. This music is pretty annoying, but not quite annoying enough.

Gotta love the 'Bama Hills. I like the music, but everyone has their own tastes. S'all good!

I was recently on a road trip to Joshua Tree and, yes, avoid the cholla at all cost. Don't ask me why. Ouch.
@JoshuaCrippsPhotography

There should be a club for everyone who's enjoyed the caress of the cholla.

Dang my brother, you spent a lot of time setting up cameras and editing for 11 mins. Wow, you have passion.

Perhaps Cripps Arch?. Those boulders looked like an amazing (and hard) landscape to explore
@JoshuaCrippsPhotography
@JoshuaCrippsPhotography 3 года назад
I mean, I won't stop anyone from calling it Cripps Arch. :) But I'm sure there is another name for it. And yes, such a cool spot.

Well, Joshua Tree, you fooled me. Going with you (via video) to the Alabama Hills, I expected to see it surrounded by cotton fields and Southern Charm. Just shows you how little this ol' South Texas boy knows. Looking forward to Part 3 at sunrise.

Turns out this area was named after the USS Alabama, so there's the southern connection. NatGeo online has an article about where the name came from and whether we should revert to the original Paute name.

Great, great video (yeah I said it twice). Loving the funk for the cooking with Cripps segue. Have to hand it to you for your focus, would've taken me a week to make that climb with the billion photos I would've having to stop to take! Thanks for sharing, can't wait for the final installment 👍

Thanks, Michael. You are right: the first time I went through that area I shot hundreds of photos. This time I was on a mission. :)

Hi David, this is the MindShift Rotation 360 Pro. It's a great pack, though it's a little heavy.
