Very cool location! Love it! Free is always a good price! Did you find Sam? You know, Yosemite Sam...LOL Sorry that is what came to mind. Amazing falls!! Awesome indeed! Take good care and hope you are looking forward to a great week ahead...Bruce and Otis
Free parking was a great surprise! Gas is so much extra it really helped. This place was downright amazing! The power of the waterfall is intense and beautiful! Didn't find Sam this time, maybe next time 🤣. Thanks for watching Bruce and Otis!!
Bet they wish they hadn’t destroyed that dam since it started the severe drought in Northern California. They eliminated water from Yosemite. Then the fires and no water.
My favorite waterfall! It's an amazing experience. The local news saw my video and did a whole story about it. Awesome adventure! You should definitely check it out 🤙
THANK YOU THAT YOU CANNOT STOP FILMING, because I cannot stop watching!!!! WOW! Impressive and thank you for the history. I cannot wait to go with my family! Amazing video.
Thank you very much! I hope you get to go, this place is so amazing! You feel the "magic" of the vibes when your there. The power of the waterfall is so intense and beautiful. It's truly amazing! Thanks again 😁
Thank you! I'm not sure...🤔. You could call a local buisness and ask, their usually up to date on the going ons. It's a magical hike!!! My favorite waterfall of all times; so far
Ryan! I remember you. What timing! I haven't ran long distance in years. I just found a race I wanna do, 50 miles. I just started training. How you been?
@@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle 50 miles is tough. Its a long ways!! Im good, living in Sac. Trying to find new hiking adventures. Your channel has some good stuff
I've read that June is still a good time to see good water flow. Bring lots of water!!! Sunscreen... the granite rocks along the hike reflect the sun and heat. It's very exposed. Though a short hike, this will dehydrate you and expose you to lots of sun/heat. So water water water and of course electrolytes so you can fuel your body back from the sweating. I didn't wear Sunscreen and burned pretty good. This is an amazing adventure!! My favorite waterfall! Hope you have an amazing trip 🤙
Over 800 in 28 hours! This area is so amazing! I'm glad people are finding my video; more people should be aware it's there. It was a great place I accidentally found in an article. Harrison Ford did a special on this place a long time ago. Thanks!! 😁
Great video!!!! And great info!! I did not know the percentage of people who visit actually visit hetch hetchy. Their loss!! I am an avid hiker but not a pro video blogger. We hiked hetch hetchy late June 2023. The water falls were amazing and strong!! You don’t see falls like this in Chicago! Again, great video!!!!
Here is a link to compare the waterfalls.. huge difference… and yes, we ran into 2 bears… amazing!!, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qyPD16HJGVc.htmlsi=I-hdq7TFYl9lQSWT
Epic!! I was looking for bears but no bears this trip. I've heard from a lot of people say they saw bears on their trip. Maybe they were camera shy for me.
Thanks for making this! Great info and cinematography. We’re gonna go for the first time in a week or so and thought we’d find something different than Yosemite Valley. Definitely subscribing. 👍
Thank you very much! Awesome!! This place is amazing. Part of this video was featured on the news recently. The news crew went out and did their own video because of this. I'm excited I discovered it! I hope you have a great time.
Great video!!... we've done that hike a couple of times now and glad you mentioned there's rattlesnakes because there is.. especially in the grassy areas...
Awesome video Paul, I had to rewind a few times because I missed some info I was laughing so hard 🤣. now I have to go check this place out, another one to add to my list. I say leave the lake! how long does something has to exist to be considered natural? don't get me wrong, a 300 ft waterfall and a raging river would be awesome too, but I love the calmness and stillness of the reservoir. Probably one of your best videos to date! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Charlie, that means a lot coming from you. This place is amazing! The reservoir is absolutely beautiful and I thought the same way you did BUT being there does something to you. Thanks again and I hope you get to explore this area.
@@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle I want dinosaurs to come back there also, just just in that valley... as a glimpse to the past... No, there's nothing in my coffee.
Yes, definitely rattlesnake country! About 2 years ago I was hiking along the trail, slightly ahead of where you mentioned “rattlesnake country”, and out of the corner of my eye, I saw a huge (7-8 button) rattle snake strike out towards my ankle, and then quickly retreat back into the rocks. He never even rattled, and thank God did not make contact. Thank you for your awesome videos, keep up the great work!
That sounds terrifying! I'm glad it didn't get you. I think out of all the things in the wild, rattlesnakes scare me the most! I always try and look for them. Sometimes I get tunnel vision while filming and forget to look down 😵💫. Thank you very much! That means a lot 😊
@@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle Thanks, me too! And I’m right there with you, rattlesnakes make me very nervous. Single file on the trail, long pants and ankle high boots in snake country! 😊
