TWO states in ONE day (Arizona & Utah) | Lone Rock Beach, Fried Chicken, & the Toadstool Hoodoos

  • For our second Utah adventure we headed to the beautiful Lake Powell, which is the second largest man-made lake in the US, located in both Utah and Arizona. We boondocked on the beach (with an epic view!) and had big plans to spend the next afternoon kayaking through a canyon, but Mother Nature had other plans.
    After some crazy wind, colder than expected temperatures, and rain, we decided to leave the beach and spend the day exploring both Utah AND Arizona instead. We grabbed some amazing fried chicken, visited the massive Glen Canyon Dam, and explored these super cool hoodoos. While the day didn't go 100% according to plan, plan B was pretty fun too!

    The Hoover Dam is 726 feet (accidentally cut that off...oops!). That's what editing on little sleep will do to ya! 😬😅
    Also, one thing we failed to mention in this video is that it costs $30 to enter Lone Rock Beach (good for 7 days). However, it is managed by the National Park Service and is FREE to enter if you have the America the Beautiful Pass, which we HIGHLY recommend, especially if you're visiting this part of the US. If you have the pass, you only pay $14 to camp for the night. Sorry for any confusion!

    Awesome campsite. I am going to have to start writing some of these spots down for future reference. You guys can really find some epic spots. I appreciate the diligence you put forth.
    The Toadstool Hoodoos were really cool. While watching, I too was thinking the area reminded me of the Badlands or Theodore Roosevelt Parks. I had this trail on my itinerary as something to try and squeeze in while we were in Kanab for only one night. We didn’t make it. Too wiped from an early morning hike and had to get to our reservation at North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Someday in the future I hope. Thanks for taking me along virtually.
    Oh yeah, I was going to say. There is an area in NW Nebraska called Toadstool Geologic Park in the Oglala National Grassland. The formations are pretty similar but the hoodoos in Utah have much better coloration.

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  2 года назад

      How cool that there are hoodoos in Nebraska! Definitely will have to keep that in mind for when we make it there. The Toadstool Hoodoos are a great quick hike (well, quick if it hasn't rained haha, that mud slows you down!) and that beach campsite was legit!

    Back with more suggestions.... don't miss Goblin Valley and nearby Little Wild Horse Canyon. Parking lot fills up fast at Wild Horse so go early. La Sal mountain loop in Moab..just before crossing the Colorado river headed north turn right and head upstream. It's a beautiful short and scenic loop tht'll take you right back to Moab and let you out near Kens Lake. Hkle the Narrows in Zion, and see the Emerald Pools. There are two tunnels you drive through in Zion. Between them is a small parking lot and a trailhead for the Canyon Overlook Trail. There's an amazing quesadilla food truck in down town Moab. Don't miss Dead Horse Point and driving down the Pot Ash road in Moab. Love your videos and we've followed in your footsteps several times Keep adventuring !!!!

    @WhenAdventureKnox 3 года назад +3

    Considering how awful the weather was for you both, you made a good time out of it. 🙌 The Toadstools at the end were stunning 🍄 even more so because the sun finally came out!! 🌤️ Reminds me a little of Cappadocia - I believe they're formed in the same way in Turkey too. I know I say it all the time, but it's still so weird seeing you guys there in jackets. I've been to the Glen Canyon rec/Page area twice, both times in summer and I associate the place with intense heat!!! 🥵 Not sure how far ahead you've filmed, but if you're still in the area, I'd highly recommend hiking the Cathedral Wash (Just down from Lees Ferry) If it was warm, I'd have said take swimmers, but even in August, the water was bitterly cold. For comparison, swimming in Lake Powell was like a warm bath! Is the coal factory on the outskirts of Page still spewing out fumes or has it finally been decommissioned?
    Our lockdown did a slight easing on Monday just gone, but as I work during the week today has been the first opportunity to get out (Good Friday is a bank holiday here, not sure if it's the same in the US). Just got back from a freezing day wandering the Kent Countryside and an old ruined castle's gardens... and getting to sit down and watch your video in the warmth of the house has been a perfect way to end it! ❤️

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  3 года назад +2

      The sunshine at the end was such a perfect way to end the day! We are dying to visit Cappadocia someday, it looks gorgeous there!
      Hahaha it's funny how it can be so cold here, but also BRUTALLY hot! Our previous trip was during April, so we have only experienced it in the milder weather. But when the sun is out, even cooler temps feel a lot warmer here. We have headed a bit west since this was filmed, but we did a hike kind of similar to Cathedral Wash, which will be the next video! Can't wait to share it! And we didn't notice any fumes while in Page!
      So happy you were able to get out! That sounds like a really cool adventure. Did you film it?

    • @WhenAdventureKnox
      @WhenAdventureKnox 3 года назад

      @Adventures of A plus K I really did love Cappadocia... and Turkey in general. I appreciate it will be expensive for you guys to get there, but once there, it's very cheap (perhaps with the hot air balloon being the exception ;))
      Ooooh West y'say? I think because you did the Moki dugway last week, I'd just assumed Moab/Arches/Canyonlands was coming up next, but maybe Zion and Bryce first? Looking forward to the next video, and now I'm very curious to find out what trail you guys did!
      I did film today, but it's the first time I've picked up the camera since October, so will need to see if it's any good/long enough to edit into a video for RUclips! The frustration this morning from my rusty-ness was all too real! 🤦‍♀️

    Hello Adventurers, I just watched your footage of Lake Powell and Page. I have been to all of southern Utah and all of the 5 National Parks several times. Yes, there are many interesting rock formations that seems like your on another planet. Have you taken the boat ride up Lake Powell to Rainbow Bridge National Monument? If not, do it! It's absolutely AMAZING! Do it! I also looked at your Sedona footage. I took a Pink Jeeps Tour when I was last there and it was AWESOME! I missed out on Devils Bridge though.

    Like hoodoos visit Goblin Valley state park in Utah, fabulous formations you can get lost in. If you are up for a small hike head over to Goblin's Lair, the climb inside is a bit tough but it's nice if you take the time to visit. We did the Mighty Five a couple years ago and this was a nice add.

    If you go up by horseshoe bend you can find an excellent kayaking canyon that is connected to antelope canyon.

That Dam was impressive, went to Hoover Dam before 911 and they use to let you on a tour in the bottom of it. Never seen so many electric turbines to generate power in my life. ❤ the Toadstool Hoo-Dos was waiting for Katherine to fall on her butt on that muddy trail. Speaking of falling how is your wrist doing from Mammoth Cave.

      We highly suggest Wire Pass and Buckskin Gulch! Our next video will be from there and we personally enjoyed it more than Antelope Canyon. You're able to explore on your own, it's cheaper, and much larger. It is slightly different looking, but we loved it.
