Wow The RRG is stunning!! I hope to make it down there someday! So awesome you guys had Chimney Rock all alone…the sunset was simply gorgeous❤️As always thanks so much for sharing your adventures and inspiring us to travel new places!!
Sorry to see this series from your trip come to an end. Each one was so beautiful and relaxing…a real joy to watch. Thanks so much for going and for your time and efforts in preparation for sharing with us! Take care always.
That doesn't look like tuna! Looks like a wonderful day exploring the park. That arch was indeed quite nice. This park had a really great collection of shorter trails with good rewards. It's nice that you don't have to hike for 10 miles to get a good view. Those grape juice rocks were cool! Wow, the view at the end is stunning!
This is so beautiful hiking with you my new friend!!😍😍 You are so good family!! I love watching your video🧡❤ The scenery from the Chimney rock is so wonderful!! Thank you for sharing!! 👍👍
Daniel Boone National Forest is a very nice place, along the hiking are treated to very beautiful forest and rock views. It's more fun because you go hiking with your family 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for going to RRG!!! It's a magical place. Your videos as always were great. If you go back you have to promise to go to Miguel's. It's the best pizza seriously. Nothing like a meal outside with everyone there!!!! WORTH THE WAIT.
another great Gorge episode! all kinds of good stuff in here/ making me miss DQ for one haha/ purple dirt sure is odd.. love the view from the Leap, Wow and we'll take the Lift thanks hahhaha... beautiful views for the sunset too thanks for sharing
@@AmericasParks i see backpacking videos from this area all the time from other people i subscribe too so i have come to really love this area even though ive never been in person
Thanks for visiting one of our state gems. Some of the “unofficial trails” lead to the most beautiful arches and places . You just have to do your research first. Always be careful as there’s countless spurs off of these trails and easy to get lost. That cherry drink you were drinking is referred to as a “pop” locally, but my family says soda. That soda is called “A-8-One,” but you didn’t have the original, just a one of the lesser flavors. They’re produced very locally (about 45 minutes away) in Winchester, KY and it’s very popular in KY. Their packaging even has photos from Auxier Ridge on it. ❤
I love that you got a good taste of what Eastern Kentucky offers. So many wonderful places to explore. Once again, if you’re ever in the area again please look me up. I’ll show you some of the stuff off the beaten path. Plus you need to eat at Miguel’s pizza and wash it down with Kentuckys own Ale 8-one (a ginger based soft drink, “a late one”)
So nice! I suspect that there are natural bridge formations, "lover's leaps" and "chimney rocks" in nearly every state. However, these views in Kentucky are absolutely beautiful! Well done!
What a really cool series this ended up being! It was really neat seeing what kind of poisonous snakes they had here. I'm glad you were able to use your drone also because those shots were pretty amazing. Excellent job on the video and the series my friend and thank you for showing us so much of this area.
The soft drink you had is pronounced ale-eight-one. It was invented in Winchester, KY, 25 miles from Natural Bridge. It is still made exclusively in Winchester and will celebrate 100 years in 2026.
Beautiful series of videos of daniel boone national forest..very helpful and informative series..I am planning to visit with my husband. could you please help me with queries I have In which month did u guys visit it..I am confused between last week of april or may.. and was it a weekend or weekdays because I don't see much people around
Nope...it's "pop" in Kentucky...one state farther down(Tennessee)and everything's a "coke"...lol. You can always tell native Tennesseans, Georgians and Alabammers (lol) by them calling everything soda a coke.
Good to see you eating food besides peanut butter and tuna fish. Also being a man of your word is no easy - especially when it comes to blizzards!
"no easy" - good memory!
Thank you Randy, this was such a lovely and beautiful video. I wish there was a Part 4.. God Bless America's Parks... Robin 🙏
Appreciate your kind words, brother! Have a couple more from the area I'll slow in the future. Enjoy your week!

Thanks much, Kristal! Hope you can make a visit!
12:57 what a view and nobody is around. How beautiful.
So surprised KY was this amazing!
the crack going up to natural bridge, we always called it fat man squeeze, ale 8 on is the go to pop.
Glad I made it through! lol!
Enjoy your red river gorge video this is my home area
You live in a beautiful area indeed! Incredible people and sights!

Appreciate the kind words, Katherine! Smiling because you are now the third person to recommend Miguel's! The place must be outstanding. Made a note!
Great series Randy. Love these videos where you explore areas that are not as well known!

We had a wonderful time in KY! Great people and sights! Thank for the information. So wonderful to experience new cultures!
What a beautiful park! Thank you for sharing your visit.
I'm looking forward to your next adventure. 😊
Thanks again, Debra!
That Arch was pretty impressive! And you're right pretty much everything south of Kentucky people call it a Coke lol
Beautiful sunset at the end!
Much appreciated, Josh!

Thanks again for the gracious offer. Checked to be sure I made a note of it.
Such a great area of the country. Not crowded, scenic trails - I did like Shane’s gave eating the jalapeño !
Didn't catch his expressing until the video was finished!
Thank you very much for us to see beautiful places
Appreciate your kind comment!
The views you all experienced were incredible
Among my favorite desserts! Thanks for joining us, Jymn!
Thanks for doing a great job of promoting our state!
Thanks, Doug! Glad to hear you believe the videos are a good representation of Kentucky's greatness!
So nice! I suspect that there are natural bridge formations, "lover's leaps" and "chimney rocks" in nearly every state. However, these views in Kentucky are absolutely beautiful! Well done!
Thanks, Chris. Was told the most natural arches east of the Mississippi.
Thanks great videos going October 2024
Hope you have a great trip!
That looked like a very cool and fun family trip!
Thanks... I initially knew very little about this place. God bless!
Beautuful! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it, Mary!

Love your videos. What go pro stick are you using on Lovers Leap? It is giving quite a view. Thanks
Thanks! It's a 10-foot "disappearing" selfie stick on a 360 camera. Check out the products in the video description.

Really cool insight! Thanks for sharing that cool piece of RRG history!
Beautiful series of videos of daniel boone national forest..very helpful and informative series..I am planning to visit with my husband.
could you please help me with queries I have
In which month did u guys visit it..I am confused between last week of april or may..
and was it a weekend or weekdays because I don't see much people around
Thanks for the kind words! We were there in late August, 2022. Spent about four days there, believe all were weekdays. Enjoy!
@@AmericasParks thanks a lot for info
Nice video, Randy. By the way, did you receive my emails?
Just replied to your email. Really appreciate your kind heart!
You didn’t say the restaurant name you were eating at or what you ordered.
"Sky Bridge Station"... was happy with the food, proximity to the hikes and service.
Nope...it's "pop" in Kentucky...one state farther down(Tennessee)and everything's a "coke"...lol.
You can always tell native Tennesseans, Georgians and Alabammers (lol) by them calling everything soda a coke.
That's really interesting!
