    Thanks to a jaw-dropping view in one of Tristan's videos, I just returned from a multi-state vacation that included a day hike on the Highline Trail along the Green River Lakes in the Wind River Mountains. I'd never heard of the area before watching Tristan's adventures there, and I said to myself "I want to see that." Its remote splendor, with Squaretop Mountain in the distance, was a breathtaking highlight of my trip. Many thanks, Tristan.

    Over the past 45 years, we have traveled and camped in 49 states (covid kept us from driving to Alaska from our home in Texas) and the 10 contiguous Canadian provinces. We are often asked what is our favorite state and we always answer "Utah" - we were just there in October. While at a general store in Torrey, UT I was bemoaning the fact that the national parks are getting so crowded to a local gentleman and he said "we have to share these places with others." I try to remind myself of this while encountering huge lines of cars to get into Arches, Canyonlands, Zion. I feel so very fortunate that our first visits to these marvelous places were so long ago when you didn't need reservations or shuttle buses to get around. Now we are introducing our grandchildren to the national park experience.

    First off, congratulations on 100K. Well deserved accomplishment. If you love the redwoods, you should read the book “The Wild Trees” by Richard Preston. It tells the story of the wonderful and daring adventures of the people that set out to find the biggest redwood trees, climb them, measure them, and what they found growing amongst the canopy. Just a fascinating read.

    I've not been to most of the places you discuss in this video, but I have been to Yosemite, once, in the late 1990s. I think I have to agree that there is something about it that transcends natural beauty. I know it's cliche, but I really did feel like I was in Mother Nature's cathedral. I hate to say that because it just drives more and more crowds there, but, hey the cat is out of the bag. For someone who has spent 99.9% of their life east of the Mississippi, setting foot in that valley was a true religious experience for me. It's beauty is simply not to be believed.

I bought my house that was the same age as me and so was the OAK tree which nature assured me it was a fit Thanks for the video of this and all the others.

    I grew up backpacking in the Sierras, and I think I know one of the secrets of their beauty, Tristan. It's the damned wonderful light. The range is the southern-most of all you mention in this video, and it's that southern CA light that helps to make them special. I can almost always tell that a pic is of someplace in the Sierras by the quality of the sunshine. And they are The Range of Light, after all, correct?
    I can always tell when a movie is set in or near LA too lol. Aside from the palm trees, tile rooftops, etc--the light.

    We went to St. George the last week of November and had Zion to ourselves. The shuttles were empty. We were the 4th car in line going into the park. It was fantastic.

    I'm with you on Butte, Montana. Not everyone "gets" Butte, but I love the place. I have twenty acres east of Butte. Up in the Pipestone Pass area. I use it as a base camp for my explorations of Montana.
    I hope you and your lovely wife will be "neighbors" soon.
