Arizona's White Tank Mountain Regional Park

- What could be better than a hike in the Arizona Desert with history and petroglyphs to see. These Mountains called White Tank Mountains are named for the water tanks in the white rock below a waterfall that is dry most of the year, but water is in these tanks year-round.

What a wonderful place old friend. There is enough questions there to take years to answer. That and a beautiful day is enough to satisfy or torture any mind eh. A big, big thanks for showing us all this amazing part of your world. Take care now eh.

Thank you for a nice trip and taking us with you, the White Tank Mountain Regional Park is beautiful. Tell Tammy I am craving Banana Pudding for some reason! Lol!
Thank you, I will
Great video. Bruno is a trail blazing dog!
Very cool. I like how you get excited over even the smallest of things. Love the channel.
we need to hang out lol I'm just happy to hear someone else geek out the way I do on cool stuff like this! Thought you'd sneak in the SDC and hit those washes!
That would be cool! But I think the State Park folks would frown on that lol
Nice video today guys . Love the petroglyph. We have a bunch in the mountains behind our house
Nice 👍
That was friggin cool! Nice to get so close to the markings. All we can hope is that stupid people don't destroy them. Thanks for the trip!
Thanks for sharing, interesting
Thanks for watching!
Can’t wait to winter down there in a few years! Great video Bill! Thanks!
You bet!
I was up there yesterday but on the other side of the mountains......Nice area and great video !
We have hiked those trails many times and just about every time we see something new. The petroglyphs close to the trails are some of the best we have seen. Looks like there has been some vandalism on the petroglyph plaza since we were there last. Nice hike. And the weather, oh my, it has been great. Thanks for sharing.
I used to go dove and rabbit hunting on the East side of the white tanks about 50 years ago, lots of dove and rattlesnakes . My friend Tony and I went driving around the white tanks on the west side I broke a tie rod on my suburban, we spent the night in the truck and the next morning decided to hike up and over the mountain. The police were called by family member to find us. So going over the mountain I had a sidewinder in my face, lucky for me it was chilly so the snake was barely moving. We finally got to the top of the mountain and made a fire to keep warm and to signal for help. Lucky for us the sheriff department sent out a helicopter to look for us and the helicopter past us so we thought that we would have to hike all the way out. Then it came back and it saw our fire smoke, it had 2 deputies in it so when it landed 1 came out and I got in to be lifted to the parking lot below, the first thing the pilot said was don't touch anything in the helicopter. That was the coolest ride I have ever taken for free, then it went back to get my friend Tony. You met Tony and I at your gold outing a year ago.
Used to to go there all the time during college at UTI so absolutely beautiful
Cool trip man! Nice hiking cool history too! Pretty neat those falls don't fill up with gravel! Waterfalls run pretty good with that downwards pressure. Doesn't allow for small gravel to accumulate I guess. That river worn boulder with that small rock wedged under it was cool too! Must have been quite a flow of water to put that there! Or maybe a long time ago! Thanks! Joe gold
Great adventure and sites, crazy there’s water there it only rained a couple times last year. I used to run into petroglyphs in the white mountains while rock hunting and I always wish I knew how to read them and what story they would tell I Imagine some were Anasazi and 1000 years old. That hook was odd for sure did there used to be a well there hmmmm thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
Bill, you sure are teaching this old “Florida Cracker” some things about your state. It makes my visits so much more enjoyable having some knowledge of the landscapes. Better than reading a book for sure!
Glad you enjoy it!
Awesome video!!! I hope some day to make a trip out that way to see some of that stuff!!!
You should!
First thing I'm wondering,what your looking at the sign for? To see if your gold monster is allowed? 🤣 Just got an 8" commander coil.love it, smooooth😁
Nice hike! Where’s the snow ???
Hahahaha that is for you Jason
Have you hiked the Painted Desert just north of Yuma? It is another beautiful place.
Yes I have Doug and we plan to go there again so Tammy can see it.
Hey that's my mountain! What side would you suggest placer hunting? I've been all over that mountain it's beautiful. Wild life from mountain lions to deer. It's a shame to see all the housing development on the north end taking over so much of the range.
Thank you for not having a talking skeleton named Slim.
Thanks Bill, absolutely amazing country, unbelievably quite old. I have sent you an email that may help you identify some of their meanings
I will check it out
Sounds like rain is coming this week so the desert should come to life. So there are white tanks and how the mountains got their name, I guess.....
Been there a few times, once with a troupe of Boy Scouts. Once there were Mountain Goats in the area (Big Horn Sheep). I was told that they died off because of the flys that were associated with domestic Sheep would lay eggs in the noses of the BHS and then they would get infected sinuses and die.1🤔😒
Great place to wander around in. What a history around us!🐶⛏️👍
I never saw any tank.
Thanks for the sub . I returned the favor and I’m gonna watch some videos . Nice hike . I’m excited about the rain coming this week . Seems so long ago . Be nice for some wild flowers to come up
Awesome thank you!
