Fascinating stuff, guys. Hope you are taking care for a Plan B, in the event of injury or mishap, such as a Sat Phone or such and perhaps filing a route plan with friends.
I've driven many miles into empty desert, just as you have done. 'Turned a corner to find a horse ranch!
That’s a bit tight for a chunky guy like me….
One thing about your videos I don't think gets enough credit is your way of weaving a story with your narration. It is so well done and creates such a sense of adventure and adds a lot of insight into the visuals.
Thank you Lynx, that means a lot
I agree👌
So true! Everything he puts out is such high quality and so interesting. He’s very talented!!
Yes ! Better than anyone on TV has ever done. And unbiased too😅
Yes!!! Back by popular demand! This is awesome!!! Back to watching.... Thanks!! Mr and Mrs. Drifter I love you guys!
Your wife is a great addition to your videos! Congrats on 250k subs, too!
*Yes, as someone who barely glamps, I can assure you Evelyn is a trooper.*
Make that 250001k
Yeaay!
Thank you John!
I can't believe how fast his subscriber count shot up
This is the first video I've watch since my wife passed away a few weeks ago. I feel like some life has returned. Thank you.
Huge & good energy friend ❤
Stay strong friend.
Sorry to hear about your loss my friend
🙏🏻
Sorry for your loss.
Mrs Drifter is one in ten million! Great narration by Mr Drifter 👍
Thanks for showing these places the respect and care they deserve, leaving no trace, and for being a great teacher.
Amazing work!
Wow thank you sunsetdev, that is very generous!
Happy Birthday Evelyn! What a wonderful birthday memory - you made it home! Take care & be safe!
Yes!! Happy birthday! What a wonderful birthday adventure!!
🎂
I just love Evelyn! Please bring her more often! 60 year old lady who used to climb the canyons.
That canyon is amazing and beautiful. Good to see Evelyn back with you. She is as amazing as you are: agile, nimble, brave and strong. You two were blessed to find one another. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVELYN!!
As a child in the late 1970s, I spent 2 summers at Camp Yavapines, in Prescott, AZ, where my mom was camp nurse. The kids' cabins had cinderblock walls covered up high in the corners with giant "scrums" of bouncing daddy long legs spiders. Giant quivering patches of these spiders, looking like creatures from Star Trek, lol! The spiders never came down and bothered us, so after our initial terror, we learned to ignore them. I gotta say, the cabins for my mom and the other adults did not ever have these spider scrums 🤔
I grew up all over, in Utah and AZ, and spent a lot of hours hiking in the Superstitions and through canyons with dwellings, camping on both Grand Canyon rims, eating pinion nuts and prickly pear jelly, dancing around jumping cholla. The thrill of seeing tarantulas and scorpions. The dry-leaf rustle sound of a rattlesnake tail shaking. I truly love watching your videos, remembering those wonderful places I saw as a child. Thank you both!
I am at a loss of words to describe the beauty and quality of this hike's panel. I've never seen one so well preserved. It reveals what others I have seen may have really looked, once long ago! I love the delicate stokes of the dragonfly wings! You can see the circulatory veins within each wing!
What makes this all this all the more precious is how ephemeral, fleeting these images are and how blessed we are to momentarily connect with another human from countless centuries go...appreciating the very same delicate wonders of nature we see today. Thank you Duo Desert Drifters!
❤❤❤ lovelovelove
Yes
Well said Alison!
you are very Well Spoken Mam. You have great articulation in your words. I bet you would write a good book.
Usually I'm not really into archeology but, this guy has ignited my interest. Thanks
I like your videos a lot. From what I have seen you don’t make outrageous claims trying to impress others . I think you are authentic and value your Channel’s reputation and integrity.
Yes! And no sponsored products or trying to sell anything. Such a gem on RUclips.
The cave art is beautifully preserved. One of the best I have seen on this channel. Keep on driftin
I can see why you made her the Mrs. Drift. Her fun free-spirit energy is amazing.
The perfect combination of wilderness exploration, adventure, family and history.
When I was a kid, my mother, father and I were driving in our pickup on a dirt road that had been bladed in the bottim of a canyon, near Moab, UT in the month of August, Monsoon season. My father, very experienced in this type of terrain and situation was constantly watching the sky and clouds up-stream behind us. Yes, it happened and all at once he drove the pickup up on a high mound on the side of the canyon bed up against a canyon wall as you show. It took a while for the flash flood to recede so my mother and I went exploring around the cliffs. We found a HUGE pack rats nest, no rats at home. We started digging at it and found turquoise beads, pieces of shiny worked stone, and bits of metal on different layers. It was like a rat treasure bank...obviously from the many past years. We left it in place...cautious of mites, lice, fleas, bubonic plague, etc.
I am in my late 70's and seeing your videos bring so many memories back in great detail. Thank you.
So grateful you left that treasure where you found it 🙏🏻
that brings back so many. memories.😞 🥲
Sounds like our dads probably ran into each other! We left enough oil pans along such roads! 😂😂😂
@@JoanePappasWhite Yes, one time was going along the eastern side of the San Juan river north of Blanco. My mother and I waded across the river to a small farmers house. They did not speak English but through sign language and the generosity of these wonderful people they got on their tractor and drove miles out of their way to tow our car to another farm. Someone drove my father to town for a new, or used, oil pan. They helped fix the car. (We all became great friends through the years.)
In the meantime my mother and I stayed at the original farm and I ate honeydew melon fresh from their garden.
You are inspiring yourself❤
19:20 Ross Musselman, known as the “Father of Canyonlands”, had a couple of ranches in southeastern Utah and took folks on pack trips all over the area in the 1940s . Musselman Arch near the White Rim Trail is named after him. His mother was named Eva, but she died in 1942. Maybe it was a memorial to her.
Wow! Thank you for sharing that information! I bet Ross was a great guy!
So glad your wife is with you.
Y'all are crazy.😂
Ahhh ... I'm reminded of a time in the 70's when my delightful girlfriend and I would venture into the desert around Moab when it had yet to really be discovered. Those were wonderful days. Thanks for the reminder.
Would have been amazing to see Moab in the 70's. My dad would visit in the early 80's, flying in weekly from Logan to teach.
Nobody visited Arches, moab had 1 motel as I remember. How bout that old wood bridge over the Colorado River, scary!
I was glad your wife could join you. I'm impressed at her abilities.
Me too ..
This is insane! It is beautiful but the inherent dangers of being in a narrow slot canyon is terrifying to me and I felt my heart pounding in certain parts of this journey. Evelyn did amazing.
Same here!
I gasped right along with Evelyn; she was MUCH braver than I, especially with the snakes. I have been told that when I was a 3 year-old and t my grandparent's farm near Abilene, Texas I opened the kitchen screened door to find a coiled rattler and was reaching for it as I was snatched away... we were quite a ways from the hospital, but luckily it took off too, probably driven away by the shrieks of my mother, aunt and grandmother! I was, of course incensed that they wouldn't let me "have" it. Creepy!
Another awesome video. My wife and I can really appreciate the time spent that Mr and Ms Drifter enjoy each other. Good job guys, we love you.
Evelyn deserves a lot of credit with the way she maneuvers in those tight spaces, not to mention all the critters.
*ME (start of video): "Oh he's taking Evelyn hiking, how romantic!"*
*ME (at rattlesnake): "Worst date ever!"*
*ME (at hoard of daddy longlegs): "Worst boyfriend ever! lol"*
*ME (at petroglyph panel): "Ok, maybe it wasn't the worst birthday ever. Sniff."*
Thank your lucky stars Drifter. You have found yourself a likeminded partner. Good for both of you. It’s truly a pleasure watching your adventures.
Evelyn, I believe you, when you talked about playing with Daddy long legs. I did too. I also played with snakes. 🐍 I was raised with 3 brothers and I didn’t dare show fear, or I’d have them shoved down my shirt! Just because you don’t like them now, doesn’t mean you didn’t play with them. I’m proud of you!
@@louisedoolitttle6842daddy long legs , don’t bite ! 😂
23;15 minutes 👽petroglyphs spotted !
I don’t care what you think or say ! ❤️😂✌️
Since I discovered your exceptional channel a few days ago, it's safe to say I've watched most of your content. I was born in NYC, but have lived in the UK since 1983. When I lived in NYC, most of my time there was spent living in the city. Apart from vacations in Florida and camping upstate NY, I've never experienced the type of landscapes you explore. Without a doubt, it is the most chaotic landscape I've ever seen. With all the extremes in the varying heights, there is no concept of walking in a straight line. Mostly, here in the UK, if I walk up a hill, it's easy. There are no pitfalls or obstacles.
What really amazes me is how vast all of this is, never mind The Grand Canyon. Huge swathes of the US are similar. I love how every area is distinctly unique and provide the most striking vistas. It is truly an infinite landscape, with endless areas to discover and explore. But, I'm preaching to the choir. Clearly, you take time to appreciate, reflect and deeply respect every site. Being a realist, I believe that the vast majority who visit these places, shares your outlook. Sadly, it takes just one fool to ruin it for the rest of us. This is attested when you film a wall with ancient art and some idiot has recently added their name. And, that's just one example.
Apart from sharing my thoughts about the channel, I'd like to add some observations that leaves me with questions. Firstly, you went through a very narrow canyon in one episode. When you reached the end of the canyon you noticed some art nearby. There were some rams and arrows pointing to the entrance to the canyon. With this in mind, I wondered if they would use the canyons to their advantage for hunting. Simply filter game into a suitable canyon and inevitably lead them to a dead end, or a narrow canyon, making them easy prey.
Another thing I wondered about was if or how they processed waste, both food and human waste. One site you visited prompted this thought. There was a line of small round of what appeared to be storage bins. To me, they looked like a row of toilets. What if they were used to make compost? It makes sense to me for a good reason. If you have an exposed area to go shit in, after time, that shit piles up. Apart from smelling, it would attract a ton of pests. Also, having an area for piling up garbage or food would attract unwanted pests.
Guess I'm trying to approach their life in real terms. See the effect of your channel? You have me pondering the lives of these exceptionally hardy people. If you ask me, everything they did gives a deep sense of the pragmatic. This makes sense because a good pragmatist finds a solution that requires the least amount of effort in order to achieve maximum results. Yes, building their homes in precarious locations, on narrow ledges, perched high above the canyon bottom looks insane. However, the safety it provided was worth it. Nothing is going to eat you when you're protected to that level. As well, no pests will eat the food in the granaries.
Deciding factors like I mention above have been planned out with practicality. There's so much more I'd like to mention. Being a writer, it doesn't take me long to construct a wall of words. It is easy to get carried away. My goal was to praise your channel and to provide some food for thought. Feel free to reply, I would happily welcome hearing your thoughts. In the meantime, be safe and be happy.
Peace.
I appreciate the long pauses in video on the rock art! Feels like we are there with you
I highly agree.
Joe, I agree, with your agree!
They’re sort of like a Mars rover…taking photos and sending the images back to Earth for analysis by experts, and for us, the curious.
Good technique
I love watching the two of you together. It’s good to see a young couple doing what I would have loved having a partner when I was young on these such treks in the places I left my heart. Thank you again for enabling me to revisit some of the sights. My body and age may have me but I was right there with you. God bless, and keep you both safe.
I love seeing husband and wife sharing their lives as you
I'm just obsessed with your videos! I'm native Navajo and seeing these places just makes me feel awe. What a beautiful and harsh place to call their home. Thank you for being so respectful of the sites and showing us such beautiful lost history ❤
Thank you Both for taking us along such a magnificent journey with you!!
i really enjoy evelyn’s commentary! i love your solo videos but seeing her react to everything you see let’s me kinda live vicariously through her because i would be enthralled with everything like her!
her energy is really cool and fun!
My love of Native American culture began when I was a little boy in the late forties, I had The Book of Indians, by Holling C. Holling.
Years later, in the late sixties, I travelled the country and visited modern Indian Pueblos and villages and saw Ancient sites, as well.
ventured into Canyon De Chelly at a time when you could backpack alone.
I spoke to a number of people about their ancestors.
I was fit, but I never did anything equivalent to you and
your wifes' explorations.
Back home in New Jersey, down the shore area, we often found arrow and spear points and some times axes,
near our home, which was on a brook which was on a branch of the Metedeconk river.
These were the Delaware and the Lenni Lenape group of Eastern tribes.
Where you visit. the weather and isolation has preserved so much more than back home.
I have great respect for these ancient dwellers and their modern descendants.
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. Even without video, I could picture it in my mind. Blessings to you and yours...
Hey Rik, Thank you for sharing!
Enjoyed reading this. Backpacking solo in De Chelly sounds like a dream! Thank you for sharing Rick
That intact storage pit was pretty dang incredible! Yeah, exploring the wilds & discovering the past - very rewarding!
Wow...what beauty and such deep mysteries those canyons hold! Thanks for taking us along ❤️
Thank you guys so much for taking me again :-) it is always so much fun. Don't blame you about the snakes!!
Excellent and loved the pictographs. I keep my distance from snakes also, but it would be hard to do in a slot canyon...
Real treasue he found is his wife
Oh yes it's always a treat when Evelyn comes along :-) her sweet personality and precious smile are delightful. The way her and Andrew lightly tease one another is so cute
I did some research into the mythology of Native Americans and the dragonfly and found this which I thought was very interesting!
"In the Hopi and Pueblo tribes, the dragonfly was considered a medicine animal, associated with healing and transformation, whose spirit was often called upon by medicine men and women. Killing a dragonfly was considered highly taboo in the Pueblo tribes."
They also mean water nearby
A signal to others that amidst the dry arriid spot you can find some water nearby
Dragonflys definitely magic
Evelyn is amazing! That narrow canyon had me feeling claustrophobic, and then the snakes 😳 Definitely not for the faint of heart.
The part where she ran to the car and you took the bags appeases the logistical/efficiency driven part of my brain. Its a prime example of playing to eachothers strengths in a tough scenario and Id say it speaks volumes about you two as a team as well as how a Man and Woman can compliment eachothers strengths and weaknesses.
Nice having Evelyn along. You guys are awesome!!!
Not only do you provide great videos showing us some of the history of your country there is also a strong moral compass guiding you and your videos. One many of us could use as an example in life. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
i have a very serious health issue, i had planned to take my grandkid to egypt in 2026 but unless i can have a significant surgery i am just in no shape to go exploring. i've lived a pretty amazing life but i am hoping there's still a little gas left in the tank yet. i adore your content cuz, you take me to places i wish i could still get to. i live in new zealand too and there are heaps of cool places to explore and fortunately i've hiked, climbed, ski'd, dived and traversed much of it. i'm seeing the surgeon in a few weeks, wish me luck, but until then i get my kicks watching stuff like this. youtube really is a trash bin but there are things like your content that reaffirm my faith in folks. go hard you guys, you are appreciated much.
Yes
This is the good side of utube
Hey Mr Somethingelse, I wish all the luck in the World! Good luck on ya!
I never say “ hang in there” I much rather like the phrase “ Stand Firm!” Keep the faith and do what you can bro !
@@AKA_MR_LANCE Yeah, I got this Mr Lance, I have a big trip planned once I get well, Egypt and I want to take one of my kids on a road trip around the south west of the south island of New Zealand, dont count me out yet cuz and thanks, needed that today.
I have been a really big fan of your work for a long time. I’m disabled but I feel like I’m hiking right along with you when I watch your videos. It must be incredible to be able to share what you do with your wife. Awesome episode!
This was a wild adventure I must say. It looked dangerous and I am glad all went well.
Happy Birthday Evelyn! Another great video for sure. The wife and I just mentioned the other day we miss your videos. Thanks!!!
Love your content you seek spiritually aligned and i get really good vibes from these videos
It's actually cool to see a positive relief pictograph. I've never seen one and I've studied them!
Thanks for taking us along on another wonderful adventure Andrew ! It's a special treat when Evelyn is able to join you. Congratulations on getting 250K subscribers in just six months. I've never seen a RUclips channel grow so quickly. You have clearly found a niche. Best wishes for your continued success !!!
Really enjoy watching you 2 working as a team, exploring the SW !! Video production is superbly done, Thanks for taking me along !!
EXACTLY what I needed on a Friday night 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Same here
Me too!!!
Amen!
Hope you enjoyed!
@@Desert.Drifter You bring a very special part of the planet, & a special way of exploring it, to so many of us.
I always enjoy going with you, & Mrs. Drifter is very impressive.
Blessings.
Your videos are awesome! I'm a desert rat myself. Living in Buffalo, NY now. I really like your vids. Makes me homesick for the beautiful,spacious desert scapes of Northwest Arizona! Bravo to you and the Mrs. God Bless !
Happy Birthday Evelyn! Fun sense of humor and a valuable addition to the journey...! Thanks for taking me along. That was entertaining .
Absolutely love the adventures you take together. I find your videos so calming and informative. Love all your videos ! Thank you.❤
You two are awesome you're doing the things that I did when I was in my twenties I went all over this country backpacking everywhere my favorite one was Utah in Arizona you make everything come back what I was doing climbing on the Rocks like that with your legs apart now that makes your legs tired but when you're up there and it's quiet your ears start ringing cuz it's so quiet and the views that you see When the Sun Goes Down And when the sun comes up cooking your eggs and bacon and drinking your coffee and you're sitting in that area where people lived in if only the Rocks could talk so inspiring you actually brought tears to my eyes because I remember I'm in my 60s now so you too enjoy what you are doing now because someday you won't be able to do it anymore you'll just have the memories so I think you so much for your videos cuz I love to watch him if I could pay money to you cuz I'm on a tight budget right now the one I can I will start paying money so that you can do these videos God bless you and thank you so much😂❤❤❤😮😢😢
Your wife is amazing! A real adventurer I hope she joins you often!
Aww, all the snakes and spiders came to wish Evelyn a happy birthday, and this is how she reacts, lol
I actually think she did great. ☺
Evelyn is a trooper!
The adventures you take us on are always amazing and when you add Evelyn into the mix it just adds to the enjoyment your relationship with your wife a thing of beauty. Happy Birthday Evelyn!
Hey drifters and thank you for another video! It’s always great to see more of these for those of us drifting most of our lives between the bedroom and a fridge lol
Love Evelyn’s high pitch spider fear squeal and pinch of comedy sprinkled here and there. I call it a good entertainment.
Awesome petroglyph discovery! I love going along with you guys on your hikes! I’m older now and the kind of hiking you do is too rough for me, so I love the way you go into places that are inaccessible to a lot of people. And, your vibe is very mellow and comforting. Thank you!
I was a long distance runner and ran through canyons/on trails, in Colorado. I would have loved a drone back then. I encourage anyone who likes to walk to take up trail hiking. There're so many nice places to explore in the US. Be careful in slot canyons, if there's even a hint of rain, don't go. Always be prepared with hydration packs and high protein snacks, and get an emergency kit from an outdoor gear shop that includes a compass, fishing line, magnifying glass, and whistle in a cylinder that you wear around your neck. I also went trekking with my horse and dog. We all packed our own food.😊 Great videos!
We need to keep seeing more Ms Drifter. What a blessing to have each other.
Your Wife is such a treasure you two compliment each other so well.
I am from Northern Arizona. I love this video! The other name for that sandstone is "flagstone." It is used as pavers in patios and outdoor spaces. Thank you for ALWAYS being so respectful of those whom you are discovering. It was bad before when people were in the business of looting and selling artifacts from Indigenous burial & homesites from the past. Keep these videos coming!❤❤❤❤
I'm glad you took a hiking partner. Some of that stuff scares the heck out of me. Best to have someone who can help if something goes wrong.
Amazing content, I would say one of a kind on RUclips. As someone who loves Geography, Anthropology, History, an avid road tripper, national parks nerd, and occasional climber, this channel offers me all of that. Truly enjoy your videos and appreciate the work you put into it.
There are so many grifters online that say they are discovering ancient civilizations when in actuality they're just showing us eroded boulders.. RUclips guy called Colorado Forest beings does it all the time.... you my friend are actually uncovering stuff that maybe no one has ever found! Do you ever show any of your work to archaeologists?
We are watching.
@@Wolves335could you sound more ominous 😂
You're right. These types of people don't know geology and call natural formations man made structures. I guess some people believe them. Maybe they do know better but like fooling others.
Agree w/ Tanner.
This is a well known archelogical site.
Your wife has a lot of spirit to traverse over snakes. I enjoyed this video very much. What a joy to see that beautiful country and remote ruins. You are tops in your narration and adventure. Thanks for taking us along.
Ohhhh, God !!!! I just shiver with excitement through the intro... just anticipating what’s coming next.
Watching your very cool adventures from NZ 🇳🇿✌️ I like how genuine you both are thanks for keeping it real
You two are awesome. I love watching your videos in the evening to wind down. And Mrs. Drifter is such a nice addition to your videos.
You two are so intrepid and tenacious, especially in the heat. I admire you for doing something l would not dare.
A good Friday for a video with Desert Drifter and Desert Driftess
Courageous wife award.
“Pushing out of our comfort zone is valuable”
Yes!!!! 💯
Many people don't have that luxury to have a "comfort zone" to begin with. It's a middle/upper class thing. Take the millions who have to schlepp two jobs to make exorbitant rents... how "comfortable" are they really?
This would seem like a dream welcome break/holiday to a lot of them, hiking and camping in the wilderness...
@@jimbob-robob I guess it’s the mindset brotha.
I’m a full time dad. Lots of bills, and never can actually be home a lot. Sure I can find reasons why I couldn’t.
I just make it a priority to find time for it.
Get out there brotha
I love all your trips! So much beauty and discoveries. Thank you for sharing.
Mrs. Drifter returns!
this its better than Netflix but at the same time more adictive!! i practice the same activity here in Argentina!! im a really big fun for arrowheads and old painting!! keep going!!
Fantastic video! Brave souls in extreme heat, gotta be! Sooooo glad you gingerly lifted the lid/rock. We needed just that. Amazing rock art, really ephemeral experience! (word posted by someone earlier). We are so happy you’re not alone out there. Great new exploration area, pricey for stamina, a long drive as well. We appreciate all your tenacity and grit!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!
It is really nice that you have a wife that enjoys going with you on these trips. GREAT VIDEO
I jumped on the smartphone with a clever reply to a rude comment, but after reading quite a few of these comments here I decided I would just live and let live. I actually enjoyed reading these comments. Good vibes!
Wow! Those figures, rabbits, dragonflies, and whatever else was painted on the walls, were AWESOME! Thanks for telling the story and taking us along. Nice to see you in good company as well. 🙂
Happy Belated Birthday Mrs. Drifter! I love all of your videos but this one was extra special and a great way to end my crazy 🤪 week!
Yes , I enjoyed Mrs along
I love your videos ,
It is very enjoyable , learning of the past . I enjoyed the sense of humor .
Thank you
Great start to my weekend to join your adventure. Thanks and enjoy!
You are so lucky to be able to explore these ancient places. Enjoy every new video. Thank you.
Wow, I’ve never seen that smoothing of the rock to create a sign, a sign of life.
Evelyn is such a sweetheart. She had me cracking up with the snakes and spiders. You are very lucky to have her. I was disappointed to see the name of someone on the wall because of how remote you two were in the canyon. Goes to show that "modern man" has been just about everywhere. Great camera work! Enjoyed your trek and look forward for more. Thanks to you and Evelyn for an enjoyable experience.
Hello drifters! Another great episode. I've watch a couple dozen of your adventures so far. I have never seen one that is not calming and interesting to us. My wife and I are retired teachers and travel together all over North and South America having our own interesting adventures. Maybe that's why our favorite episodes of Desert Drifter are the ones where your wonderfully fun and smart birthday wife, Evelyn, join you. Like I said, your findings are always interesting and thought provoking, but the back and forth between husband and wife on an adventure add a whole new level of complexity (especially when there are rattlers and spiders in your way) to your excellent series.
Omg! My fix is in!! I was beginning to wonder what I was going to do during this loooong break since your last video!!!❤❤❤
From the Lake District of Cumbria, probably the antithesis of the surroundings you and Evelyn get to on your adventures. The quality and content of the videos you are posting are astounding. Thanks for sharing them
This is an awesome video.
Nothing can surpass the gift of natures beauty, thank you for inviting us along on your wonderful adventure's.❤from the UK
Evelyn is a must have. Love her personality!
Good to see you “both” back on the trail again!
TY Adam & Evelyn. So absolutely interesting. 👍🙃
Wow very cool . I love that your wife has joined you. That was a crazy slot canyon and the last rock art was amazing. I love exploring these wild places. Thanks for taking us along on this one.
THANK YOU BOTH FOR BRINGING US ALONG........... 👍🙏>>>💚
Finding the storage complete was amazing!
Excellent decision to include your wife…icing on the cake!
Same lol
