    Yosemite National Park, in the Sierra Nevada mountain ranges in California, is one of our most well known National Parks. In this episode, we explore the huge cliffs, waterfalls, and trees that John Muir called his church and home. We'll hike to Vernal Falls, check out a bit of the John Muir Trail, and backpack to Upper Yosemite Falls and North Dome, and see beautiful views of Half Dome.

    I'm 75 years old and live in Fresno County for 60 years. I have camped Across America in 31 States from coast to coast and Canada in my lifetime. Yosemite and the Sequoias are in my backyard and nothing I have seen including the Grand Canyon is as impressive as Yosemite. I go every chance I can but it's difficult for me now to go where you went. Thank you for making this video for those of us who love God's creation but physically cannot go there anymore. God bless all of you!

      I have lived in Fresno for nearly all 35 years of my life and I feel so incredibly blessed to live so close to the Sierra Nevadas. My dad took me all over the Sierras from 5 years old on, fishing, hiking and camping. I just got back from camping with my wife and daughters in Kings Canyon National Park. My dad joined us for the day. Feels like just yesterday he was giving me the advice I was giving my daughters. How time flies! Out of all the places I have been none are as breathtakingly beautiful as Yosemite Valley and the Cedar Grove/Roads End area of Kings Canyon. Both feel timeless yet constantly changing all at once. They are very very special places and both are near and dear to my heart.

    There are so many things I like about your episodes. First, you guys have genuine camaraderie and it comes out on camera which is something you can’t script. Second, your music is calm and soothing which goes well with your videos. A lot of outdoor videos have horrible, loud techno music blasting away which really doesn’t go with hiking videos. Third, your narration really adds so much to your overall story. Keep the videos coming guys I’m a big fan!!!

    I lived and worked in the park for 6 years and my little stone house on the meadow in Yosemite valley had an unobstructed view of Half Dome when I opened my front door. The place is magical and it was easily the best 6 years of my life.

    1:04 Evening Philosophy. Yosemite is a spiritual place, especially when you are in the back country. When I was a young man we would pack horses to Minnow Lake once a year to cleanse our mind and body. We brought a shower bag and no weed. THE BEST times ever. I am hoping to bring my kids this year or next. Haven't been back in 30 years. Love your video guys.

    • @AdventureArchives
      @AdventureArchives  4 года назад

      Thanks so much for watching! It's definitely a spiritual and cleansing experience to be out in the wilderness like that. Hope you get to return there soon! Cheers :)

    @teresap.5991 Год назад +3

    I'm 65 now and I can't go climbing mountains anymore not that I could ever climb those like you guys did but just being able to see it from your perspective made it so enjoyable. It was so beautiful too and refreshed my soul just watching it so thank you all very much. We did come out west in the year 2000 from Pennsylvania and spent two weeks mostly driving but we saw 12 national parks and Yosemite was one of them. But we only had one day there so you know we didn't get to see nearly everything we wanted to. We knew we may never get out there again so we wanted to see as much as we possibly could.

    I was there in 1989 with friends…wow it resurrected a great memory! Awesome video gents. Great majestic scenery, wild animals (fat squirrel), and plants. I was jealous watching you guys lighting up fire in cold morning and evening under the breathtaking open sky.…what a life!
    My goal is to hike it again before I die. Please make more wilderness video. In nature, one finds harmony, and healing in this stressful life.

    I just took a philosophy exam, killing time before my environmental science class. I have a strenuous school schedule and only have a couple weeks a year to make trips for hiking and exploring, and this video is making me really want to drop out. I LOVED this video. Something about these films gives me a fantastic feeling. You guys are doing work in your videos that is unmatched by any other channel on this site.

    • @AdventureArchives
      @AdventureArchives  5 лет назад +2

      So glad you enjoyed the video, that really means a lot. We originally made them in part so they could be a way to escape into nature even when people didn't have the time to do so. Thank you for your kind words, and I hope you get to de-stress and get outside sometime soon! -Andrew

    OMG, Well the 4 of you guys didn't change a bit from 2015 to 2024 :). This is a very sweet and charming episode where all of you had your cute baby faces. Your personality have remained the same, the strong bond and friendship is unwavering through the coming years to present, 2024! This is a really special episode for me, seeing all of you so young and together enjoying life, and with such unique morality that didn't change throughout the over 50 episodes releases (in 2023)

I think I'm like Brian. I'm sleeping everywhere on our road trips and outings! Ha! And I like to start the fires. Bbq, camping. Agree with Andrew that it's so therapeutic.

    • @AdventureArchives

    I loved this. I visited Yosemite on December 5th, it was my first time back after 25 years, and it was even more awe inspiring than the first time. I appreciated it so much more. I went off season on purpose, to feel the solitude i needed after living in the concrete jungle of Los Angeles for so long. Yosemite did not disappoint. I cannot wait to go back, and
    B R E A T H E. Your movie made me miss it all the more. Thank you. Thank you. ✌️

    This was one of the best things I have watched in regards to Yosemite! Well done! It's also the first of yours that I've seen, so I can't wait to see more! Thank you for sharing this beautiful heavenly place with us, especially for those of us who are physically unable to hike up to see what you shared. I'm gobsmacked right now and grateful! Bravo to this foursome !!

      +EasternMountainHiker Yosemite was absolutely mind blowing. Do yourself a favor though, if you're a hiker/camper, I'd say avoid the heavy "tourist" attractions and hike the trails instead, its a much more enjoyable experience when you don't have crowds of people.

    I climbed up to some falls in Yosemite when I was about 17.I remember there were a few less people and the camp sites we stayed at had quite a bit more distance and trees between them. Behind our camp site there was water and a bear trail. The day we made it up to the falls, there was a big pool of cold water that we very much enjoyed a swim in. It was one of the best times of my life and you guys just allowed me to relive it. Thank you. What an amazing trip, good company and good food.

    I remember when I went to Yosemite I was with my mother, we had little experience with hiking and exploration, but we went off trail a lot, but it paid off. I remember there was about 50 people on the on the other side of us, a water fall in between us and 50 people. We were sitting on a huge rock together enjoying the view, we ended up getting lost a few hours later until we decided to randomly explore and we found a road, we followed the road and ended up finding our car, quite some luck there lol.

    I visited Yosemite National Park on August last year. It was definitely a memorable experience. I did a hike down from Glacier Point to Yosemite Valley. Watching your video reminds me of how amazing Yosemite is. I was very lucky because I was able to camp there for 3 days. I would revisited that place when I have the chance.

    Another great video, watching still during Covid19 pandemic. Cannot wait to get outdoors again. As an outdoor person as well as one who works in an office, we all need time away. I love the talks at the end, while work and deadlines is one thing, our life is another. Live in the moment. Like being outdoors, similarly life is a journey not a destination. Enjoy it! Thanks for sharing!

Just a few days after watching this I booked a flight to San Fransisco and planned my trip to Yosemite. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. You guys have made me obsessed with camping and hiking.
