Thank you Swifty! I was actually surprised at how good the views are since it doesn’t look very high up from a distance. Also, I really think Twisted Juniper needs to become a thing! Thanks for watching!
From what I’ve read, the vortices are not actually electromagnetic fields…so I’m not sure a compass would do anything. I think dowsing rods would pick up the energy tho 👍🏼 I’m gonna give this hike a try tomorrow. Out of the 50 videos I watched, this is the best. Thank you for the non obnoxious background music 👍🏼
Hilarious! As a frequent flier to such places, it's nice to run into someone who has their head on straight and sports a sense of humor. I would have loved to have seen that spaceship come out of Bell Rock!
Love Sedona, I have yet to find a bad place there. Yes you do have to deal with a bunch of hippy dippy stuff, but as you said live and let live. Smoke enough skunk weed and you'll see twisted juniper everywhere :)
Lol! That is probably true. Everything in Sedona is awesome. The only thing I often wonder is if it would be better had it been a National Park unit. Then again, the New Age stuff is kinda quirky and fun too. I always go back and forth on that one, but lean towards the former...
I was just kinda curious about the vortex definitely wasn't planning on watching a 20 minute video but I watched the whole thing. Great guy great video. Also props for walking the same path twice just to get that action shot of you walking away lol
Haha! There's some wild history to that large chunk of rock. We keep meaning to head back and do some more experiments with the legend of vortexes and see what happens. Hopefully we get to do that soon. Thanks for checking our video out! 👍
@Cactus Atlas I'm from MN so it's quite a hike to see these things. Furthest I've been is Colorado Springs and garden of the gods and up to Estes Park, both amazing places. Looking forward to the rest of your videos
Ehhhh it's all Natural. Nice that you followed your intuition & found that spot overlooking everything. Yeah hawks really hate drones. Foresty Forest had one taken down by a hawk & feathers could be seen before it crashed.
Somehow that channel has eluded us. I must find this hawk v drone footage. Though I imagine it wasn't a funny moment as drones can be pricey, it sounds crazy. 🤣
All trees spiral to some degree or another as the tree grows. It's so the next level of branches does not block sunlight from the one below. Juniper may spiral more than others and its bark often looks gnarly. No vortex involved. I think you need a floating magnetic compass, not an electronic/cell phone one to check to a vortex, but it's all crap anyway.
I’ve explored a good portion of the land around sedona and can confirm the spiraled juniper trunks are consistent throughout the area(maybe all around the southwest but not sure) and not centralized around any “vortex” “intersection point” “place of power” or any other specific location. I have particularly noticed the spiraled trunks on just about every hike at some point and sometimes have joked about the spiraling saying we must have found a “vortex.” I’m no juniper expert, but the cause may be that all juniper sometimes spirals, the specific type of juniper found here sometimes spirals or may have to do with the winds or other factors at each tree. Unfortunately we’ll have to find another way to prove the existence of the mystical energy. P.s. those floating compasses often get stuck without any supernatural interference…
You sound just like us. We often joke to each other about "vortexes" when we come across any twisted tree as well. 😅 Wind is most often the reason we've read about for the twisting. Regardless it makes for an interesting look! 👍
@@CactusAtlas okay...well if magnetic north in sedona is to the east of true north...ie 10° clockwise...and if the vortex turns counterclockwise...then possibly...maybe... oh, wait a moment. is the battery of the iphone orientated with the positive terminal on the left side? i think the battery orientation of the new iphone causes a reverse polarity anti-vortex phenomenon. the next ios update is supposed to fix that though. 😉
I believe that if it makes people feel better or spiritual then it's real to them. No different than someone who believes in God, it's called faith, no real evidence. My two cents.
I've lived in Idaho, Utah and Arizona, and I've never met a juniper that wasn't twisted.
Ha!! Great video! Very funny and great editing! LOL a few times ;)
Thanks! Awesome to hear that!
Very cool
‘Twisted Junipers!’ I got a good laugh! Those views from up there were so stunning! Loved the vid!
Thank you Swifty! I was actually surprised at how good the views are since it doesn’t look very high up from a distance. Also, I really think Twisted Juniper needs to become a thing! Thanks for watching!
. Babb bbaaaaa

Thank you so much! We appreciate hearing that. 😄 Happy hiking and hope you have a great time!
Great video my friend. Sedona is one of Arizona's majestic beauties that everyone should visit!
Couldn't agree more!
Such a beautiful view from this rock. Keep exploring these unique subjects and one day you will prove it. Great video
We just might! And we'll document it to boot!
Hilarious! As a frequent flier to such places, it's nice to run into someone who has their head on straight and sports a sense of humor. I would have loved to have seen that spaceship come out of Bell Rock!
Thanks! Yeah, I tried my best to coax out some mystical happenings during my visit, but alas, I struck out. Maybe next time! 🧙♂️ 😅
@@CactusAtlas It was the skunk weed!
Lol!!!! 😂 😂 😂
Another nice video. Glad you get to do some exploring.
Thanks! It was a great hike I haven't done before so it's nice to explore Sedona more than I have in the past.
Anyway, I would love to visit that place!!!!
I love that the coordinates is 111 degrees W
Great for sky watching and/or looking for flying saucers (day or night).
Headed to Sedona this Thursday for the weekend. Hoping to do some hiking and get some content for my channel. Using your video for reference thanks 😊
Awesome! Have fun and hopefully you get to do some hiking! 👍
Wow! What a great video! Seriously. How do you have so little followers? I really don't understand. New sub here! Wow!
Thanks so much!
Really enjoyed the video. Very entertaining. 👍
So happy to hear! Thanks so much for the comment. ☺️

Great video keep it up new friend here
Thank you!
Another good video. Natural nature contact highs are a thing!
Starting to really believe that after experiencing it a few times!
Interesting video, I don't know about this Vortex's 🤪
LOL. Being more followers of science, it does seem a little out there. But the spaceship in the mountain? Totally feasible. 🤣
Thanks for adding the location link!
No problem!

Can't remember which vid it was @@CactusAtlas. Was sometime last year. He thought he lost it then found it & sent it in for repairs.
Awesome channel, new friends here
Welcome to our channel! 😊
How long was the hike up and down?
Following Pepe le Pew!!!!! Awesome!!! Hopefully that’s it!!!
😂😅
What the skunk smell? Are there skunks living in the rocks?

Did you get a view of the music that he was playing with the flute?
We did not, no.
We just hiked in Sedona two weeks ago and I’m looking for music to put in my video.
was the compass set for true north...or magnetic north...hmmm? 🤔
Not something I considered, but after checking, the answer is magnetic north.
@@CactusAtlas okay...well if magnetic north in sedona is to the east of true north...ie 10° clockwise...and if the vortex turns counterclockwise...then possibly...maybe...
oh, wait a moment. is the battery of the iphone orientated with the positive terminal on the left side? i think the battery orientation of the new iphone causes a reverse polarity anti-vortex phenomenon. the next ios update is supposed to fix that though. 😉
Lol! Dang it!
The Vortex is not imaginary sir. Don't disrespect what is not understood.
😂😂😂😂😂
Vortex are real, they turned me into a newt! ... I got better.
Skunk, as in weed? lol
