I enjoyed you video and subscribed. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome, thank you!
Proud to call Utah my home. After 53 years there is so much more to see. Been to some, most people never will. Thanks.
You should be proud - it's an amazingly beautiful state!
@@sagebrushcountryI am not proud. Just lucky. My parents took us everywhere.
Some great diversity in the plants, it looks like. Tons of deer!
Great video, the pines at 2:53 are Limber Pine.
Good to know, thanks for the feedback!
Beautiful video. Well Done. Love your observations.
Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it!
This was a fantastic video! I just love this state so much. Thank you for showing all the beautiful plants, there aren’t enough RUclipsrs who actually show the vegetation in detail.
It is a beautiful state, with so much to see. Thanks for your feedback on the plants, I like em, and good to know at least someone else appreciates them also...🙂
I visited the Henry mountains about five years ago, in Fall, shortly before the hunting season. (I'm not a hunter, but hunters were scouting spots). It is pretty amazing to see a over a hundred buffalo, grazing near the upper peaks, but on the opposite (west?) side of the pass. I was surprised to learn that a limited number of tags are issued to hunt buffalo.
Cool you got to see the buffalo....would have liked to see some myself...
Very enjoyable. I like these relaxed, informative videos. Excellent videography.
Thanks for the kind words, glad you can enjoy my fun little hobby...
Yes, Beautifil country. Especially Bull Creek Pass. I've been trying to get a mule deer tag for that area but no luck. I my have to just take a little trip out there in the fall. Nice video.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, a fall trip is definitely worth it and best of luck getting a tag....
Went that way several years ago, tried going over Bull Pass but too much snow and had to go around to the south. Beautiful country.
Yeah, as I mentioned in the video at Bull Creek Pass your in an alpine vegetation zone, which can be pretty unfriendly to travel most of the year...hope you get to try again!
Is the forest patchy like that from logging?
There would be only selective logging in those mountains, not real extensive. Patchiness is also caused by less dense forests from lower moisture generally available for trees, fire and bug kill.
My parents Morris and Lonna Wolf lived in Hanksville for 32 yrs I camped in the beautiful Henry mnts many a yr
Looks like a great place to grow up!
Last mountain range in America to be discovered. True fact.
Cool fact!
They used to be called the Unnamed Mountains. Geologist Grove Karl Gilbert named them after the first secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, Joseph Henry. GK Gilbert was the first to describe the geology of the Henrys in the 1870s ( _The Geology of the Henry Mountains_ , 1877). I'd bet he would've loved to have had a drone, as well as roads to travel on. He took a mule train and spent several summers exploring and describing the Henrys. BTW, if you go in the summer, watch for rattlesnakes! I was at Mt. Hillers on the south side of the Henrys for four days and within that time I spooked three of them.
I wanted to climb Mt. Ellen, but when I got to the top of Bull Creek Pass the wind was blowing about 70 mph. Could barely stand up when I got out of the car, so I got back in and went back to my camp at Lonesome Beaver, where there was only a slight breeze blowing.
Yeah, I heard that was a really windy spot, glad we didn’t experience anything like you did….
I grew up visiting my grandmother in the summer in Utah. Me and my cousin would look for canal octopus. Someone threw a dead octopus in a canal and the rumor started they were breeding in them. Utah is beautiful country with great neighbors and battle ax grandmothers who don't tolerate talking back.
Sounds like a great growing up story....😀thanks for the reply
What is the shrub called that has yellow flowers that smell like baby powder, it grows among the junipers
I’m guessing that’s probably bitterbrush, it gets little yellow flowers in the late spring and gives off a pretty distinct sweet smell that’s hard to miss. It’s pretty common in the juniper zone and has little green leaves…..
Please don’t share these treasures with the masses. They will be ruined. I don’t share the places I find even with my closest friends. It would be ok to say “hey join me on an adventure. But never tell the internet where you are. The internet has no class and these places will get trampled by people who do not respect them.
Thanks for the comment. I understand your perspective, there are a few places that are really special I don't share the location. However, with more well known areas like the Henry Mts. I think showing folks the beauty and the access in a respectful way, hopefully helps elevate the visit experience for everyone.
Looks dry! Not enough trees.
