Sixty years ago my father insisted that we walk across the bridge, but at that time there were spaces between each plank so you could look down into othe gorge to the river below. Thus began my lifetime fear of bridges.
Went on the mini-railroad, the incline car, drove across in my minivan and listened to a train go through the valley. They had just redone the suspension cables that made me feel no safer. The Million Dollar Hiway and Ouray stand in my mind as well. Black Canyon of the Gunnison had recently been named a National park, 1977, 1996, 1997, 2000.
Good evening Mr Adam Woo. Another amazing vlog. The only gondola I have been on was the ones in magic kingdom- Tomorrowland to fantasyland. The bridge crossing -😎thank you for the vlog- enjoyed.🙂
We love the nature / wildlife exploration vlogs! You've found so many incredible sites to share! It's awesome that you get to explore with your family! 😀
That Gorge Bridge, Omg, 😃 Mom & Dad look nervous; So Happy Your family are all with you...Great Summer Traveling....Have fun! and again, Thank You for taking us along. 😎
13:37 that is called a "Yurt". They are portable tents originating in Mongolia and still used by their nomad herders today. I've seen the modern version (like in this video) throughout the Rockies, particularly some private farmland areas adjacent to Glacier National Park. The orange carts on the bridge are Kubota brand utility vehicles. Most run on diesel. We have a few at work.
That's one of Journey's top five very best songs. So of course now I'm listening to it in It's entirety. Thanks for that AND the video!!! So many breathtaking views, this is one of your videos that I will watch many times. I think it was way cool that your family all went over the gorge together, in the same manner then y'all chose three different ways of coming back. Nice family. Nice video.
Good morning Adam and to your parents and your cousin, it's nice to see them in the video. Your dad is funny, he's got jokes 😂, momma woo take it easy . Thanks for the adventure, it looks like a nice vacation you and the family are on. You have fun. Stay safe and take care.😎📸✌️
Adam how does it feel to be getting very close to 1 MILLION Subscribers? You Have done quite a bit over the years in many different ways so I feel you deserve this Milestone approaching, hope ya still remain the same with maybee a few new GOOD things added along the way....
What a warm Schpadoinkly Day you had there at the Gorge Adam. Omg I just googled clips from the movie. Now I need to own it !! I can’t wait to tell my wife I finally found a musical that I want to watch with her !!
I used to live in Canon City in the late nineties when the old frontier town still existed it had several old buildings then until the Hunt brothers bought it out and destroyed it. I did a lot of fishing in the Arkanas river, so many fond memories of how the City used to be. Thanks for a great video Adaam
I use to live in Colorado springs in the 70"s. It's beautiful! I loved the mountains. Your parents live there. I thought they lived in Florida where you are.
Are you talking about Buckskin Joe? It was actually purchased and moved to a private ranch in Gunnison. My uncle used to be a stuntman/gunfighter there back in the 70’s. Several movies were even filmed there, including Cat Balou and True Grit.
''Stay inside the cabin'' 😅😂 that view down was amazing! I like that you showed lots of different angles and lookout points. Had to smile at both you and your dad leaning on the hot railing lol 😊 Love the expression on that dinosaur at the end!
I remember when my parents took my brother and I here, it was part of the same trip where we visited the Sand Dunes. I’ll never forget how clammy my hands got standing right on the edge of the bridge looking down
Thanks Adam for inviting us along for another great adventure this time with your family Thank you for taking us places that we'll probably never have the opportunity to go Looking forward to the next video
That’s a really cool pedestrian bridge. As much as Adam likes trains, he should consider a cross country train trip. A vlogging trip across the USA or Canada with nice roomette accommodation could be fun.
@@conniecrawford5231 I follow among a few other Jeb Brooks and he vovered that journey a few days ago.. Simply stunning. On my bucketlist is also the Ghan and Indian pasific in Australia..
Back in the Sixties I was about 8 and there was only a bridge here.No Zip-line and the Gondola was just one at a time and seemed small..The bridge had not been refurbished yet and was a lot more rickety. Looking down thru the slats in the planking scared the living you know what out of me! You also could still drive across the Bridge back then.
I am loving all of your Colorado adventures!! I have been to many of these attractions back in the 70's and a lot has changed since then. Thank you for sharing!!😀
In the early nineties my husband and I drove across the bridge and back, then we walked across it. As we were walking across it, a pickup pulling a camper met us going the opposite way. The incline RR was running at that time as well. Thanks for the memories!
hello again Adam and the woo clan , another cool interesting video, i love seeing old steam trains , great view over the gorge , the bridge looked like a nice walk , well done and thank you again 😊
Adam, really enjoyed your awesome video! I think I'll pass on the gondola and the bridge because, I'm afraid of heights but, beautiful tho! I won't ever be able to face my fear of heights! Thank you for taking me along with you and your Dad and Mom and sister and her husband! YOU ROCK! Looking forward to your next vlog.
Years ago there used to be a funicular ride that took you down into the Gorge. That was pretty cool to stand up and ride down like on a sideways type elevator. When we had a wildfire years ago, a lot of the buildings were destroyed at the Gorge and that ride was also destroyed. They’ve rebuilt them and now people can enjoy it again. So glad you are able to enjoy our beautiful state Be sure to drink lots of water. The altitude will get to you. Hoping you are planning to go to the actual South Park town on the way up to Breckenridge. 💖
No? The incline is still broken unfortunately... (i would know since I'm a local, been there recently, and always wanted to ride it, but never got the chance to before it was burnt up)
@taeron2739 I'm pretty sure if you read the original comment and were a local, you'd realize they are also a local. A town with 20,000 people shouldn't have such gatekeepers weirdos like you. The slow paced og mineral excavating town mixed with fast paced tourism is what makes Canon cool. What's the issue? Lmao. "Locals only. I know more than you. You're wrong about canonical history." The dumbest gatekeeper bullshit. 😂 you don't want people to visit and appreciate the rockies. How pathetic. I lived in CO for a decade and am moving my fiancée back with me, I feel like you Judy hate the tourism which is what makes canon in modern times cool 😂😂😂😂😂 how sad. Won't be replying so have fun
Beautiful area. I especially enjoy the areas like this with God's beautiful creations. Thanks for sharing the family video. Making memories are so special and fun. Your dad cracks me up every time.Then he says Gorge us. 😆 What a funny man and your mom comes up with some good stuff too. I love when your sister and her husband chime in too. By the way, how was the zipline? I'm so glad ya'll are together enjoying these times. Try to do as many of them as you can because one day you will be glad you did. Be safe and Happy Trails. ❤️
Hey Adam. In Colorado Springs they have the spectacular Broadmoor Motel which is very elegant and beautiful. I know your mom and dad would love to see that. Then they have the Cog railroad in the same area. That takes you up the side of Pikes Peak. You'll need some long pants for that ride. Because it's very very cold at the top.
It was so cool that you went to the area where Buckskin Joe's used to be. My family lived in Canon City when I was a child in the mid sixties and my dad told me about Buckskin Joes. I traveled through Canon City last year and went to the Gorge but I saw online that Buckskin Joes was closed but I didn't know about the trail. It was quite the attraction in its heyday.
Great day Adam and so much beauty and the deer 🦌 were amazing and the Royal Gorge was an epic sight, one to ride the Gondola 🚠 that high up and to walk across that amazing looking bridge to get a view like no other this truly was a day like to remember thanks again Adam now with that peace ☮️ love and happiness to you Adam your mom dad sister and her husband and I’ll see you on the next awesome Adam the daily woo adventure peace ☮️ out ✌️
I was able to catch a glimpse of the Royal Gorge Bridge after the big fire that devastated the area. My dad had been on the funicular car that went down the side of the canyon. Great family memories . Thank you for sharing.
We went there in the early 90's.Did the Gondolla Ride, the mini-railroad and also the inclined rail ride.About half way down the ride broke down and stopped for about a half hour. A couple of older ladies were sitting just in front of us and one said "if this breaks loose and crashes i hope we go to Heaven" the other lady said " if this thing breaks loose we'll be heading the wrong way for that" The inclined railway took you all the way down to the river.
Wow you guys certainly had a adventurous day what great awesome veiws. I liked at beginning Adam you said who is excited, only your sister everybody was looking down and nervous.Now this is what you call a nice family outing.Take care from Universal Jamie.
Love the Royal Gorge, was just there on July 5th. Next time I need to ride the train. Thanks for showing the gorge on video. Great trails nearby for hiking. The only thing , not the friendliest workers in the admission area. Years ago the gondola was a large single red gondola.
The Royal Gorge is so beautiful. Was there many years ago. There was a fire there back in 2012 believe. It looks just as beautiful as it did when I was there. Glad the fire didn’t damage the building there. I’m wondering if the incline railway was damaged in the fire and that’s why it’s not running anymore. That was a view to see too. Thank you does taking me back! Keep on being you @thedailywoo 👍❤️
So glad you saw the Big Boy in Canon City, I always think of you when I drive past it. I remember going to Buckskin Joes when I was kid. Also, you used to be able to drive your own vehicle across the bridge.
Love the RG Bridge. I've been on that mini-railroad and the incline car and the DRG Engine 499 was operating last time I was in Durango. I have video cassette proof at a raging 330 lines of crisp Zapruder resolution. There wasn't as much on the other side of the bridge except a turn around. You used to be able to drive your own car across by yourself!!! We were on the bridge during what we thought was an earthquake that turned out to be a train rolling through. The meshing on the side rails of the bridge is new as well. At one-point, Royal Gorge was one of the largest sources of bricks. You gotta do the Million Dollar HiWay and go to Ouray. Gondola and zip lining? I didn't this far by falling into the bottom of a 1,000 Ft (Empire State Bldg) Gorge, but I do have a Royal Gorge brick. Funny how your mind makes you feel safer when the ground rises up to 100 ft below the gondola even though you can die just as easily? Great video. Hi to the Fam.
SHPADOINKLE! I'm one of those 12.. er 86 people! Sucks that the whole village is gone but how cool to see it. You know they played frisbee.. c'mon they made BASEketball! Thanks for showing that. It was very unexpected.
Adam The Royal Gorge always fun to go see and do stuff around there. The small tracks were left over remnants of a train ride that you can take from another tourist area called Buckskin Joe’s. Those tracks would run up against the gorge, There was an overlook you could overlook the gorge. There was a massive wildland fire through that area years ago, and it burned up a lot of property. I think that’s when Buck Skin Joe’s closed.
So glad you came to Colorado. Getting to see all the sites I haven't been to in a lot of years. Lots of changes and improvements through the years. We are patiently waiting for the opportunity to go to Cada Bonita. Enjoy your travels while you are here in Colorado with your family.
Buckskin Joe's was awesome, I'm sorry you missed it. Thank you for digging in a little here in our patch of Colorado. Please feel free to home base in Pueblo anytime, it's great to have you😊
Back when I was a kid my grandparents took me, I was around 9, so late 1970s, it was super windy but my grandfather was determined that since we were at the Gorge we would be walking it. At one point he told me to open my eyes that I was missing everything. 😬😧😱 I will admit it was a view I won't forget! Love that you all gotto go! Michelle from Omaha safe travels!
Tomorrow I fly back to Pueblo. I wonder if you will still be there. I hope you are enjoying Colorado. We love living there. I cannot walk across that bridge but I love going to Royal Gorge. 3 gondolas is because of wind. It shuts down as soon as there is any wind.
Woo... you really are on my Heels... I was just there last week. $35 to get in. Big Tourist Trap!!! We drove over the Bridge when I was a kid. If you end up back in AZ... meet you at Long Wongs. Lol
Skyfari's gone. Hmmmmm...... Bronx Zoo and Teddy Roosevelt responsible for repropagating the American Bison. That's how they do it in the Boogey Down Bronx!
Oh my goodness Adam, did your mama just say you were the chicken? LOL! That is breathtaking! I (Tammy) might be willing to ride this one just for the views. Don't know if I could cross that bridge or not though! Enjoyed it, thanks for sharing this adventure!
I don't know if I could ride on that tram😮. Great video, I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you guys are hungry go to the town of Elbert, try the South 40 Bar and Grill, supposed to be really good. Thanks.
I’ve never seen someone willingly spend so much time in Pueblo. Seriously though - fun videos!
Sixty years ago my father insisted that we walk across the bridge, but at that time there were spaces between each plank so you could look down into othe gorge to the river below. Thus began my lifetime fear of bridges.
Hahahha. The things are parents did to turn us into adults!
My father did that to me too, but I was only 6.
I remember that too. I refused to get on it as a child.
I walked across 30 years ago and it was free and the boards had big gaps.
Went on the mini-railroad, the incline car, drove across in my minivan and listened to a train go through the valley. They had just redone the suspension cables that made me feel no safer. The Million Dollar Hiway and Ouray stand in my mind as well. Black Canyon of the Gunnison had recently been named a National park, 1977, 1996, 1997, 2000.
The coolest parents ever.Nice to see the closeness.

Thank you for coming here that was so amazing
Great vlog Adam! I learned a lot!😊

I don’t even think about it honestly . I doubt I’ll ever get there
Thanks Adam for taking us on your family trip Such breathtaking views and a little scary 😆😆😳😳
What a warm Schpadoinkly Day you had there at the Gorge Adam. Omg I just googled clips from the movie. Now I need to own it !! I can’t wait to tell my wife I finally found a musical that I want to watch with her !!
That is a great shirt your Mom is wearing!! Family fun day!! It is always a pleasure to see y'all together again!! Thanks Adam!!
Your Dad is hilarious 😂 You are all sooo brave doing that. WOW what a view Incredible..i was scared just watching but loved it.

Oh my gosh, I was terrified just watching this!! LOL Love the family vacay! God Bless!
The deer😍😍😍

Great drinking game vlog Adam. Gorge. Drink. Gorge. Drink !! Lol
Thanks Adam👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That’s a really cool pedestrian bridge.
As much as Adam likes trains, he should consider a cross country train trip. A vlogging trip across the USA or Canada with nice roomette accommodation could be fun.
Dont know what the route is called but the one from Toronto to Vancouver. 4 nihgts 97 hour train ride.. On my bucketlist :)
I've said before, I don't think that would appeal to him, stuck in one place (despite seeing different scenery).
@@Gibbs-rq4ygThat’s the”Canadian” which costs about $689 up. Beautiful ride through the Canadian Rockies!

Hey Adam. In Colorado Springs they have the spectacular Broadmoor Motel which is very elegant and beautiful. I know your mom and dad would love to see that.
Then they have the Cog railroad in the same area. That takes you up the side of Pikes Peak. You'll need some long pants for that ride. Because it's very very cold at the top.
Manitou Springs, CO is a great visit too. You can see the ancient cave wall paintings and akso garden if the gods.
Since I lived there you brought memories back to me.
It was so cool that you went to the area where Buckskin Joe's used to be. My family lived in Canon City when I was a child in the mid sixties and my dad told me about Buckskin Joes.

I remember walking across. Someplace under the gondola get some red sheet metal lay on the ground.
I’ve been there in the early 90s. The atmosphere has changed. Thanks for the video ATW, and thanks for bringing back great family memories
Cool, you went to Canon City, the George is beautiful. The train is fun, I used to work on it.
Thank you again

Good job
That is a beautiful view of the mountains. Canon is just beautiful
Love the RG Bridge. I've been on that mini-railroad and the incline car and the DRG Engine 499 was operating last time I was in Durango. I have video cassette proof at a raging 330 lines of crisp Zapruder resolution.
There wasn't as much on the other side of the bridge except a turn around. You used to be able to drive your own car across by yourself!!! We were on the bridge during what we thought was an earthquake that turned out to be a train rolling through.

SHPADOINKLE! I'm one of those 12.. er 86 people! Sucks that the whole village is gone but how cool to see it. You know they played frisbee.. c'mon they made BASEketball! Thanks for showing that. It was very unexpected.
The view from the gondola ride is (as your dad said) Gorge-us! Loved the drive through town.

The Royal Gorge always fun to go see and do stuff around there. The small tracks were left over remnants of a train ride that you can take from another tourist area called Buckskin Joe’s. Those tracks would run up against the gorge, There was an overlook you could overlook the gorge.

Ive enjoyed times in Colorado ,but never did the Gorge area . Thanks for the scenery , glad i could join you all .
Back when I was a kid my grandparents took me, I was around 9, so late 1970s, it was super windy but my grandfather was determined that since we were at the Gorge we would be walking it. At one point he told me to open my eyes that I was missing everything. 😬😧😱 I will admit it was a view I won't forget! Love that you all gotto go! Michelle from Omaha safe travels!
I was feeling some modern day Indiana Jones and Temple of Doom vibes while you crossed that wooden bridge
Tomorrow I fly back to Pueblo. I wonder if you will still be there. I hope you are enjoying Colorado. We love living there. I cannot walk across that bridge but I love going to Royal Gorge. 3 gondolas is because of wind. It shuts down as soon as there is any wind.
Woo... you really are on my Heels... I was just there last week. $35 to get in. Big Tourist Trap!!! We drove over the Bridge when I was a kid.
If you end up back in AZ... meet you at Long Wongs. Lol
I always thought the Bronx Zoo's Skyfari was high up in the air, but it was nothing compared to that Gorge Ride! That zipline is really insane! 😮 😀
Skyfari's gone. Hmmmmm...... Bronx Zoo and Teddy Roosevelt responsible for repropagating the American Bison. That's how they do it in the Boogey Down Bronx!
Whata gorgeous gorge😍 😂❤
Oh my goodness Adam, did your mama just say you were the chicken? LOL! That is breathtaking! I (Tammy) might be willing to ride this one just for the views. Don't know if I could cross that bridge or not though! Enjoyed it, thanks for sharing this adventure!
That's where my husband and I got engaged back a few years ago. Absolutely love that area
Every time I see your dad, I immediately think of Jonathan Winters. I bet he gets that often. He is one of my all-time favorite comedians.
Oh my gosh--you are RIGHT! I KNEW his dad reminded me of someone--but couldn't think of it. You nailed it!
Beautiful countryside!
Thank you for helping your parents...
Love when you travel with your family!
I don't know if I could ride on that tram😮. Great video, I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you guys are hungry go to the town of Elbert, try the South 40 Bar and Grill, supposed to be really good. Thanks.
Great vlog Adam.
One of my fave places to go. Went there as a young girl in the early 80s. Good memories!
On bucket list..thank you
I like you dude 😂😂. You are such a great RUclipsr.
The "igloo" is called a yurt. Fantastic video with a very brave family!!! Safe travels.
