I love how you are always taking care of your wife. Thank you for being a great representation for those of us who believe that chivalry is not dead! Keep it up!!!
This is a Great Hike but needs to be done on a weekday if possible to avoid the crowds and you can drive back all the way from Dry Creek Rd but where the parking lot is there are huge rocks that only High Clearance vehicles can access.
Thank you both for taking me to Devil's Bridge as I am handicapped and will never be able to hike this, so I am living thru your eyes! It was so beautiful.
As a ex backpacker, runner and all around outdoors person; as a 74 year old RVer I am envious of your hikes. Now that my hiking days are over due to a serious foot/ankle problem I really enjoy your videos of hiking opportunities. ALL of your videos are great! Now I am limited to exploring what I can on my e-bike. Still moving forward thanks to video encouragement from you guys. Stay safe and have fun. BTW, I love the shirts!
It's not the real hikers that leave the trash, it's the boom box hikers that leave the trash, the ones that don't think of anyone other than themselves
I loved this destination. I hiked the dirt road and the trail you took was way better. Your tips are totally on point too! Be courteous! Those speakers are the worst and make me want to do bad things. We had a long line for pics at the bridge but found a good spot and just skippped going out on the bridge itself. Love the shirts and the message!
We always carry gloves and an extra bag to pick up after those who seem not to care about our world. We use liquified too! We we traded our TT for our class C a few months ago, Matt & Andrea were there and we got pictures with them! So cool!
Beautiful photography and videos. Sedona is absolutely amazing and we really enjoyed our week there this spring as well. You are absolutely correct in saying pack in/ pack out leave no trace and keep music to no or low. We love hiking because it brings us closer to nature and inner peace. Funny we were at the devil’s bridge same time you were and made the same decision to enjoy the view but not wait in line to stand on it. Keep up the great work and hope we meet up again in the future.
Tara!! 🎉❤ you are awesome! Congratulations on doing Devil’s Bridge! Chad: ‘no dogs on the trail, even yours.’ Yes! 🙌🏻 Great episode, thanks for sharing.
Ah yeaaaahhh. Not going on that trail at 69 years old with all those people.. many who seem to have never been in public. Call me a curmudgeon if you must. Love your videos. Love your shirts! I feel the same way! I am going to get one!
Great video! We were in Sedona this yr during the same timeframe that was around spring break...wow!!! As beautiful as the area is, never again during March! The crowds and disrespectful people (who suck! Lol) was really off-putting. On the plus side, the many hikes including Devils Bridge were awesome, and the scenery was second to none! Coincidently we were also fairly impressed with a spur of the moment meal at the Golden Goose!😂
Beautiful. Do it while you can. Hiking is a thing of the past with Great Grandma and me. But we are still RV'ing and still loving it. I really wish you guys would wear gloves on these treks. Lucille is one beautiful bike.
Great video! My wife and I camp host at Brancked Oak lake in SE Nebraska every year and we find some of the most disgusting stuff in camp sites especially the fire pits. Anywhere from completely full of trash, cans, bottles to human feces and this is on a weekly basis. The park has the peoples info from the envelope when they pay for the site or from when they reserved the site and I think they should send a fine. People might learn from this and stop do it instead of being scumbags. Thank you for the effort.
Great video!! We were there May '23 and the same boom box guy must have been on the trail with us that you ran into. How annoying LOL! It's a beautiful area and we plan a revisit. It's a beautiful hike!
Chad, you were talking about wind!! The last time we were out there I was on my Electra Glide riding sideways!! A tumbleweed hit my front tire! Talk about being terrified!! Tank slapper!😂😂Be CAREFUL!!
Holy moly with the cameras hanging off your bodies. Thanks so much for all your wonderful photos and clips of where you hike. The hiking etiquette tips were very interesting. I totally agree with keep the volume down. It seemed a bit crowded at the top. Wow. My hiking days are over, bad knees but it is cool watching you too.
Two things came to mind watching this... 1. If I had taken video of my wife's "behind" while hiking, she would have made me delete it from my phone and delete it from my deleted folder, then delete the deleted folder. I just kept thinking, "Oh, Chad is toast." 😀 Pretty sure if it ended up on RU-vid, we'd be in counseling. 2. The place where I most discovered that the location is not like the photos is Delicate Arch in Arches National Park. There must have been 1,000 people there when my son and I hiked there last year. I was looking forward to taking "Instagram worthy" photos, but it was a mad house! Definitely not worth waiting in a line of a hundred people to get the "standing under the arch" photo.
OCD on black buggies 😅😅 I'm the same when using buggies on the Harley to hold down extra bags on the tour pack. Even though not in this video, hope you got some Lucille time out there on those senic roads.
The Sedona area is beautiful. Fun fact: the Sedona McDonalds is the only one that doesn't have golden arches. Theirs are turquoise blue. Enjoy Mesa, there are some beautiful hikes in the Superstitions. The Wave Cave was our favorite
No cancellations? Wow. Things always happen and come up that are out of our control. We did this same hike. I went back down the same way, on my bottom! We did a video on the hike too! It was beautiful, but I am afraid of heights, so it was a huge overcoming moment for me to walk out on that bridge and get a photo of us on it. Airstream sighting in your campground!- Michelle
Great advice sad one even needs to mention common courtesy rules. But then again these days it's not very common 😞 I'm afraid. Chad always appreciate you're how to fix videos.keep up the great content. Cheers from thunder Bay Canada.
PS Thanks for the info about Liquified toilet treatment. We are in need of this soon and I was wondering about a good one. On our last trip I could smell the bathroom. My mom and I have a good sense of smell.
12:55 - Years before the social picture popularity; do not recall seeing this many folks on one trail. Saw on another YT channel; hiking steep climbs that had chains anchored into rock cliff edges. Many folks on that trail also; (heard that a reservation / permit / pass was required, in-order to be on that trail). Pretty wild / thrilling looking trail, sort-of similar to this one you both climbed here).
Another question. I’ve been wondering about getting a Starlink Mini to keep in the car we go sight seeing with. Seems it would be handy to have internet access pretty much everywhere. Any thoughts on doing that?
@@ChangingLanes Starlink is sooooo good. So tempting to have it in the sight seeing car for state and national parks when there is nothing else. Our iPhones have satellite sos but Starlink would be even more better in those locations. 👍🏻
Great video! We have been considering the walking sticks. I’m hesitant personally. My wife will probably get a set to try and sees some real appeal. Your thoughts on them? Helpful? Nuisance to have despite how small they pack down? How often on that trail did you get them out then put them away? Looooove your content!!
We only put them away when we needed to climb with our hands. We really like them. It's reassuring to have the extra points of contact. gear.changinglanesrv.com/product/hiking-poles/
16:20 I always take a trash grabber and pick up trash when I walk trails. One of the most annoying offenders is people who collect their dog poop in a bag, but then just throw it off the trail when noone is watching. Surprising how much of that I see.
Hi Chad, I was wondering if you could tell me how to run a water line in my rv to my refrigerator that’s on my kitchen slide, I installed a new one and this has a ice maker. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks GC
Never done anything like that. I would guess you just run a water line the same route as power cables and such, assuming it's in a slide. You might try contacting your manufacturer and asking them, or get a mobile tech out.
They tent to flap in high winds if the wind angle is on edge. When that happens, we've jammed a pillow between the slide and topper. People have also used cheap beach balls. But, most of the time the toppers are not an issue.
At the top of your climb that is a great place for a zip line. 🤷♂️🤷♂️. On that tank treatment the gauge to measure the amount per tank size . How many ounces per how many gallons?? I have a 100 gallon black tank well All my tanks are each 100 gallons. Fresh, gray, black . Thanks . Just trying to see which brands takes the most ounces for the same amount of liquid. Thanks
I think the bottle says 40 or 45 gallons (for the pre-measured cup). Our tanks are 52, so I just overfill the cup a little. For 100, you'd likely want to put in 2 treatments.
That hike was awesome; however, way too many people for us. I would add one more to your trail list. Keep your dog on a leash. We have been out hiking with our dog (on a leash) and other people’s dogs (off leash) were driving our dog crazy.
Hello! I'm getting around to finally watching ur fun video after getting socked with covid for the 3rd time. The reminders to take ur trash with you; Know who has the right of way when ascending or descending ... wow! Things that should be obvious to ppl but aren't, oy! 🙄 the T-shirts are fantastic. I wish there was a blue color. We will order even if we dont do much hiking anymore😔 I'm going to call Chad out for way too many close-up butt shots. Tara is a beautiful woman. I'd rather see her face.🌹One more thing, the 🏍 is going to rust. Please include some ride scenes once in a while. Plz!❤ Hasta La Vista! 👋
We see more and more of the speaker crap. Or people using walkie talkies turned on highest volume talking to each other when in groups - usually needless banter. Avalanche Lake this year in Glacier was horrible with the number of people who had no consideration for others or nature. And simply wow with the shear number of people y'all encountered on this hike. Did you know that might be that busy? Wow.
Great video. Beautiful area, I can see why y'all wanted to go back. Like the shirts. I've hunted, camped, & fished, all my life. I was raised to always leave a place better than you found it. Its really irritating when you get someplace, and the last people looked like they just dumped all the trash on the site. Thanks for taking us along and sharing your adventures. God bless y'all and stay safe out on the road.
We had some idiot with a portable speaker on his pack, blaring music when we were hiking The Narrows in Zion this summer. That's just soooo inconsiderate.
I have to say- I wish the shirt design wasn’t almost a direct copy of what is on Etsy… by small artists. Whom tend to get their designs stolen. Not accusing you of this. I know you said you “licensed” it but it looks darn near identical to other artists online.
@@ChangingLanesThank you for clarifying that in these comments. I stopped the video stream on the tv and logged online just to check these comments because I found it upsetting the way the info came across in the stream. I’m glad the original artist was compensated, whoever they were.
I can't say that I disagree with the message of your shirt, I just don't agree with the way the message is delivered. Otherwise great video. Keep the good stuff coming.
lol everything makes you guys mad music, people walking on trails, people listening to music. I think you guys should do very remote places that you don’t see any humans or things that make noise. Just because you guys think someone shouldn’t be doing something or do things differently doesn’t mean it’s the wrong way it just means you’re too critical of people. The shirts are already copyrighted btw you guys just stole someone else’s idea 👍
We can agree to disagree on what's rude and what's not. We paid the artist for the license to use the design. Generally, when you pay for something it's not stealing.
I thought women don’t sweat, they perspire. Either way y’all stink! I keep telling my wife that. She doesn’t think so either. She will take a shower though. I enjoy that! LOL!
I like your comments about trail etiquette and agreed with you but then I noticed your shirt. How many kids did you pass that read that shirt? That shirt is disgusting and should not be worn in public.
You can drive the Dry Creek Road to Devil's Bridge, BUT you must have a high clearance vehicle and 4x4. There is a section where you may slide on the frame rails as you climb/descend an area of rock staircase. Made that trip up and down the road numerous times and have seen cars stuck, damaged, etc. And a tow out (if you can get one) can easily run over $700. You can set up a ride with one of the local jeep tours. And one of the best times to be up at the Bridge is when a helicopter tour slowly rises from the valley to give their clients a view of the bridge. IF you want to get up their without the crowd, go in April to mid May and miss the tourist mobs.
