You are truly creating something special and so unique that I needed after such a long and crazy day at work. I am very grateful because I got taken on a journey and emerged myself in such a present moment. I really believe I am not alone here who feels the same way, and I thank you again for it. Keep creating, :) wishing you all the best.
What an incredibly nice thing to say! Sorry you had a rough day at work. We all have those days, sometimes it’s good for an escape like to a place like this.
A few years ago I traveled from Minnesota and met another old friend from Texas to go to the Big Bend to attend the funeral of a dear childhood friend. After the ceremony we spent a full week of hiking and riding down the river. It was a an inspiring trip and could understand why our friend has settled in this local. We met many of his friends and enjoyed their company and their helpful advice of where to hike and borrowing a rubber raft to ride the river. A fond set of memories
My husband and I went to Big Bend August 2024 and we did the lost mine trail, santa Elena canyon, and made stops where the burro ears formation are, and a fossil discovery exhibit with information of the dinosaurs that roamed there and information of the Chisos formation which used to be an active volcano! So fun, plus the beautiful stargazing!
Such a peaceful feeling (except for the mud!). We are headed there in March for the first time in our 70 years of living but we're in shape! Thank you both for a trip before the trip!
My first trip to Big Bend was on Sep 9, 2023. Went straight to Santa Elena Canyon and then to Chisos Basin on the way out. I would have to say its like stepping back in time for me. Such a great experience even though i didnt hike any trail except for Santa Elana Canyon trail which was only a mile or so round trip, but still rewarding. I plan on returning soon
I’ve toured the park 4 times between 2001-2016. In 2007 I was there when a snowstorm hit. It was wild! A truly fabulous experience. I hope to go again in the future. I just love this place. Epic Texas!
Great video! One huge thing I'd bring up is that you can see the inner arms of our Milky Way galaxy at night here, because Big Bend is one of the top 3 best places to view the stars. I came here just for the stars about a year ago, and had a great viewing spot with about 30 fellow star photographers at the St Elena trail
I love the short history on each of your video. Really well presented and educational to say the least. I noticed, you’re wearing a shirt with a big R on it. I’m from NJ, and R is the logo of my school Rutgers University.
My English isn’t good but this was one of the most awe inspiring and captivating experiences I’ve had in along time my trip isn’t for months but you made me want to run out the door before it was even over
What an amazing video you have put together! Being content creators ourselves, we know the amount of work that must have gone into this and it shows. Really nice job both educating us and showing us your perspective of this national park in such a visually appealing way! We’ve subscribed and can’t wait to watch more!
Great video, very well done! I love Big Bend, take the 10 hour drive out there at least once a year for the last few years to hike and stargaze in Chisos Basin. Going back next week!
Silly me, I just did Black Gap Road in my Jeep, got sidetracked with rescuing a fellow Jeep Wrangler that was stranded. Totally glad I was able to help them. Looking forward to returning soon with my son in April.
Well, I messed up syncing the comment with the super thank. Bros. You have it. I subbed within 10 minutes. Fantastic cinematography, flawless edit, relevant engaging narration, geographical reverence, well researched. This reeks with creativity and high end equipment savvy. You guys should be with Nat Geo. Cheers from Texas! I look forward to more.
Great video, we were there last spring and enjoyed the visit although it was extremely hot. It's good to see some water in the Rio Grande, in our videos it's dry as a bone. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome ... i didn't hear a NJ accent though, so I had to ask. Thanks for the video .... amazing work. I'm heading out to BB in April for the eclipse @@AlexynPhotoVideo
@AlexynPhotoVideo There is a trail that either goes there or comes really close. It's been around 20 years since I tried it. I had my 10 year old son & wife with me. Partially the reason I didn't continue. When you get into striking distance, there are thousands of rocks you must scramble over for quite some time. It reminded me of how the county uses large rocks near bridges to slow erosion. But on a much much larger scale.
Good question! All flown outside the park, can’t fly it inside the park your right. Landscape is close enough outside that I used the footage for the doc even though it’s technically not in big bend.

You are very talented. Easily the best Big Bend video I have watched.
Very kind of you! Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Great video! The narrator hunks don't hurt, either.

Very well done! I’m two weeks away from our visit to this park and this video provided tons of info without a lot of fluff. Thank you!

Thanks! And me too! That is indeed a Rutgers R! Go R U!
This makes me so excited!!🤩 Heading that way in 11 DAYS and your video just made it exciting
Have a blast!
My English isn’t good but this was one of the most awe inspiring and captivating experiences I’ve had in along time my trip isn’t for months but you made me want to run out the door before it was even over
Hope you enjoy! Glad I helped you get excited. Let us know how it went!
Thank you for doing such a magnificent job on my home states pride and joy.
Very kind of you. Thanks, and glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful video and recap of Big Bend
Great video. And you even corrected your pronunciation of Rio Grande to the way we Texans say it, “grand”! Because it is!

Hard to beat stargazing in Big Bend! Enjoy!
Great video, your narration really gives the video that added element where you feel like you are watching a nature show
I love this documentary 🔥
Great content! Get this man more views!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

Ill be there this fall. I plan on running all the back country roads.
How did the jeep get into trouble. Ive heard its not very technical

Excellent video guys :)
Great video !!

Yea this was from October. Going there in the summer I gotta imagine would be quite brutal. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Waste this on some high end caffeine!
about 50 feet higher than the roof if the sears tower. With the spires, the sears is 200 feet taller than the canyon walls
what was that app you used to see where you’re going on the trails
Alltrails. It’s a great app that allows offline downloads. Must for longer hikes
What navigation app were you using on this hike? 🙂
It’s a great app called All Trails. Game changer
@@AlexynPhotoVideo thank you 🙂
@alexynphoto&video - Is that a Rutgers shirt you're wearing ?
Class of 2010, go Knights!
Awesome ... i didn't hear a NJ accent though, so I had to ask. Thanks for the video .... amazing work. I'm heading out to BB in April for the eclipse @@AlexynPhotoVideo
I've been going out there since 1975. I tried to hike under the Window Trail but failed. I wanted to see what if anything has been thrown over. 🧐
Interesting idea for a hike! Would love to see this from the other side.

What time of year did you go?
We went in the late fall
How safe is it to go alone or as a couple (with no survival skills xD) ?
Always better to go with a friend. It’s safe as long as you stay smart and prepare.
Tuff canyon is closed and probably for a long time =(
Really? What happened?
That echo was fake LOL
👍🏼👍🏼
i am going in 2 days
Have a blast! Should be decent time of year to go before it’s too hot
Did you all have permission from NPS to take those drone shots? Flying drones is a felony in a national park.
Good question! All flown outside the park, can’t fly it inside the park your right. Landscape is close enough outside that I used the footage for the doc even though it’s technically not in big bend.
Just keep your eyes open for cartel runners!
They big hikers?
@@AlexynPhotoVideo JUST DRUG RUNNERS STAY SAFE!
Very nice video. BB is beautiful, but not for anyone who is "high maintenance".
