    We hit the largest cavern on the east coast, the largest maze in the Mid-Atlantic, and the highest peak in the Shenandoah National Park. Pretty exhausting weekend, but well worth it!

    Thank you for helping me get even more excited about my upcoming trip to Luray Caverns. Great content! Have you been or are you considering Costa Rica?

      Funny enough that was going to be our very first trip together in 2020 but it got canceled. We've been working our way back to try again, but if we do it will be like how we did SE Asia and travel from country to country in South America on our way there

    Great video!
    Suck you didn’t go to the caverns sooner, they used to have a stone staircase at the original opening that you went down, and they’d periodically turn off the lights so you could see (or rather not see) how dark it is!

    • @TheDetourDuo
      @TheDetourDuo  2 года назад +1

      Ah, that’s cool! We toured Grand Caverns in 2020 and they turned off the lights at one point. It was awesome. I wish Luray still did that!

    Hey guys I think Iearn something new every time I watch one of your videos 😁
    The maze looked fun, I liked the editing to be able to see both of your experiences.
    The views you hike to were amazing!

    • @TheDetourDuo

      Thank you so much 😁 I went back and forth with how to edit the maze part without it dragging on for too long. I feel like it worked fairly well with the split screen.

    The maze looks awesome! I saw it on Instagram and think i voted for Sara lol !
    We did a maze similar last fall in our Frobergs video, but we got a map! I don't think we could have gotten out if we didnt have one haha
    I love the hiking shirt, Tony!

      thanks! so I make the text in After Effects. It's fairly easy to do just a bit time consuming. starting to get pretty quick with it. I think a map would have helped us both a lot! Always got to have flair when going on hikes. I have a few more Tshirts to break out before it gets cold

    Haha, so how long did the maze actually take you guys? I know we both would have been so screwed, to the point where whoever had the drone would have cheated and flown it up haha. Looks so hard! We went to Luray Caverns and had an amazing time but missed out on the maze and Hawksbill! That's reason enough for us to go back, that area is so dope and Luray Caverns themselves are the coolest I've ever seen. Great video guys, although I'm a bit jealous of that Airbnb stay. Looks like exactly what the doctor ordered right now. Cheers -Seth

    • @TheDetourDuo
      @TheDetourDuo  3 года назад

      We went into it wanted to keep time but we both forgot to start our clocks. Feel like it took me, Tony, maybe 15-20 mins and Sara came out about 10 mins after me. I definitely started thinking about cheating with the drone after about 5 wrong turns. The caverns are cool for sure. Between the wishing well, the reflection pool and the organ there are a little hidden treasures in there. Our only grip was just the just the amount of people there. We got there pretty early and it was like moving through Disneyland to see the caves.

    How long does it take to walk the caverns?

      Around an hour if we remember correctly. If it’s really busy it may take a little longer to walk through.

      Haha it wasn't that bad. I'm scared of heights and I managed. It looks worse than it is, but below the cliff is a hill
