My wife is from this area and brought me here 30 years ago . It's one of our favorite places to visit, relax, fish and shoot film. We live 40 miles south of Crater Lake National Park in Southern Oregon so if you love nature Oregon is a pretty good place to be minus the wildfires the last several years.
That is awesome to hear thank you. My videos are mostly informational, but I would love to create things that get different reactions from people. Hope you enjoy some videos.
Thank you for posting, what a superb video! I grew up in La Grande & went on the tram many times as a kid but never appreciated it until now with the song of the Rito perfectly implemented into this.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed. This is the family friendly spot for sure. I did another video nearby of ice lake and Sacajawea climbing that I bet you would like too.
Great video Matt👍Was up there in early October.We took the last ride of the year.They were starting to close down when we were going up .Bringing down the food from the grill.But...THANKFULLY THE BEER WAS STILL AVAILABLE😌Love the lack of tourists.Got to experience my first intro.to Terminal Gravity in Enterprise!Thanks for the great work you do.
Thanks Brooke. The owner contacted me and said he liked the video and would put it on his website. Haven't heard back in awhile though. That sounds like an awesome experience. I love that Terminal Gravity brewery. Best outdoor seating I have seen. When we went there was a fiddlers convention. Tons of different groups playing music. Was very cool.
Bridalveil Falls gondola opened in 1969 in Provo, Utah was the steepest in the world with almost a 70° incline. It was so popular they only let people on the gondola with a reservation for weddings or dinings. But sadly in 1991 a major avalanche occurred temporarily closing down the ride. Later in the year it was closed down for good because some say it would be too dangerous to fix. I was never alive to go on it but my grandparents have and they say it's one of the scariest things they've ever done.
new friend over from Pusa Studios. Wow what spectacular views with the drone, absolutely stunning.Thanks so much for sharing. Will definitely stay connected.
Headed to Joseph next month for a weekend camping trip. After seeing this, I'm anticipating it that much more. Incredible video! Thanks for this, it's very informative! Keep up the great work.
Awesome. Not sure about whats open with all this virus business. You might have to walk up the hill! I did one other video from that area, hiking from Wallowa Lake to Ice Lake, Matterhorn, and Sacajawea.
Absolutely gorgeous work as usual Matt. The Oregon Tourism Commission should be paying you...you find places most would never think to visit, and make them look irresistible. I've got to get myself up to that corner of the state!
Thank you sir! I am slowly working my way in that media direction. I have applied once or twice and got ignored. I hope to just grow in skills and viewership to the point its a no brainer to work with me. Worst case I goof around in the woods and make videos for fun!
Thank you. Lucky you. I can't wait to get back. We are still getting used to having 2 little girls but we are slowly getting out there like we used to.
I am pretty passionate about those things too so this comment is awesome to read. If interested my best work was released recently, a full length doc on Newberry Monument: ruclips.net/video/8ysL_8SlF6o/видео.html
Oh man awesome video!! I am sorry I didn't get to watch this live ... I just can't say it enough Oregon is So awesome and you capture it's Beauty so well Matt! Those mountains are epic!!!! I love the little chipmunk 👍😄 thanks Matt for we would never get to see the Awesome beauty of Oregon without you ... Your talent captures it so well 👍😀👍
Thanks Pam! This one got shared on facebook 80 times! This one was pretty tame riding up the mountain. I like to spread out and try to reach different people. I got some dangerous ones coming up!
Absolutely beautiful man, thanks for sharing the footage and the info. We hope to pass up through Oregon sometime next year and we may just have to slap this guy on our list haha. Have an awesome week! - Shane
@@DnSAdventures Aug-Oct is the best time if that is an option. Otherwise summer lots of roads can still be closed, and terrible mosquitos. Either way there will be fun all times of year.
@@MattCookOregon Ah gotcha! Thanks for the tip! Yea, honestly have no idea at this point lol. We sorta kind of know what we are doing this winter, but still up in the air. A mixture of organized chaos lol.
Thanks! A little bit harder to breathe at 8000 feet. Depends on your tolerance. I had just camped at 7000 feet for a few nights before this. So I was used to it.
Thanks! It is round trip. Seems a little steep for just a ride but you do get a nice mountain experience for however long you want to stay. Also keeps the junkies out.
Just because one person does something stupid, does not mean you have to. Common knowledge for people that spend time in the outdoors to not feed wildlife. We want to keep the wild, wild.
Excellent documentary! This place has been on my list for awhile. Now I really have to check it out!
Thanks Jason. Gotta do this one. Lots to see in that corner of Oregon.
So Brilliant to see such beautiful scenery. A very lovely video and has me so wanting to see Oregon's mountains and forests someday.
Thanks Arielle!
This’s so beautiful, spending time at such beautiful place is so magnificent
Thank you! I highly recommend this one, fun for the whole family.
What a nice video! Thanks for taking us along to see such a beautiful place.
Thanks Harold! This place is a very cool visit. Accessible to all with the tramway which is a nice change from most mountains.
Love the BotW music! We are heading there this week. Thanks for the video!
Thank you. I used the music for awhile as it is such a pair with nature. Let us know what has changed on here if you can.
Great video and love the Zelda music all throughout it! My wife and I are making the trip out here next summer with out little one!
Thank you. That new ambient Zelda music has been great to edit with. Sounds like a good time next summer. It is a perfect spot for a little one.

Nice. I like it here. Wildfires have always been a thing but getting pretty nasty lately.
Thanks for the nice video!
Thanks Bill!
Your film was very moving for me and brought tears to my eyes. Don't ask me why, haha, but it was beautiful, thank you for creating your channel.
That is awesome to hear thank you. My videos are mostly informational, but I would love to create things that get different reactions from people. Hope you enjoy some videos.
Beautiful shots. Your camera work is really impressive. Again, all the time I spent in Eastern Oregon, I can't believe I didn't visit this.
Nice. There is always time. Especially with this one you can visit when you are old and feeble!
Awesome stuff. We really need to get over to the Wallowas.
Yes you do! It has great options for both touristy kinda stuff like this, and wilderness experiences.
Thank you for posting, what a superb video! I grew up in La Grande & went on the tram many times as a kid but never appreciated it until now with the song of the Rito perfectly implemented into this.
A man of good music taste I see. Thank you. Awesome to hear. This was my first time at the tram.
Some really great views! These mountains and trails have been on my list for a long time. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, glad you enjoyed. This is the family friendly spot for sure. I did another video nearby of ice lake and Sacajawea climbing that I bet you would like too.
We just visited the area last month. The tram is a must if your time permits. Beautiful part of Oregon for sure.
Nice. They liked this video so much they put it on their website. Pretty cool to get that Oregon mountain experience for those that can't hike up.

Sweet. Didn't know about that one. Sounds like the kinda thing that worked years ago and would never happen these days.
Huh? What’s that got to do with Oregon?
new friend over from Pusa Studios. Wow what spectacular views with the drone, absolutely stunning.Thanks so much for sharing. Will definitely stay connected.
Welcome. Thanks! Hope you enjoy.

@@MattCookOregon thanks for the heads up! I'll look into that, beforehand.
Amazing video!! Use to go here every summer growing up!! Thank you for bringing back good memories!
Awesome. Thank you. Has it changed much? This was my first time.
Enjoyed the video, usually visit every year, just another beautiful remote place in the PNW.
Yo Sam! Thank you. Beautiful remote places is my specialty!
..WOW..Thank you for sharing ..have heard about tho never been...Great Video..and i was Born in Enterprise ....Long ago 1952...
Thank you Gerald! Wow you must know some cool spots in Wallowas. Any good goldmines you know of?
Another awesome video dude!! thanks for putting this on my places to visit :)
Awesome! Joseph/Enterprise are a great vacation spot for sure. I already want to go back.
Awesome video and narrative Matt!
Thanks David. Also thank you for sharing, thats huge!
beautiful work Matt
Thanks so much!
Going next week! This was great information!
Thanks! Bet ya have a good time. If doing the summit grill, cover your beer with a napkin cause it will get covered in flies!
Absolutely gorgeous work as usual Matt. The Oregon Tourism Commission should be paying you...you find places most would never think to visit, and make them look irresistible. I've got to get myself up to that corner of the state!

GREAT VIDEO!!! I was just in Joseph today
Thank you. Lucky you. I can't wait to get back. We are still getting used to having 2 little girls but we are slowly getting out there like we used to.
Great video! Love my state, love filmmaking, this was a perfect blend of the two.
I am pretty passionate about those things too so this comment is awesome to read. If interested my best work was released recently, a full length doc on Newberry Monument:

@@MattCookOregonJust took a look at this. Will watch it through soon!
Excellent video Matt! Very beautiful and informative.
Hey thanks David!

@@MattCookOregon Wow Mat that's awesome!!!!! You all be careful stay safe 😊
Loved this place. We visited Wallowa this summer and such a great fun experiance. Your videos are awesome
Awesome. Thanks so much. It is a special spot and I cannot wait to go back. Liked your video on the tram too.
Matt.Cook.Oregon thank you. I want to go back again too.
Way cool. I need to go there!
Yes you do! The owned contact me and said he liked the video so that was cool. Maybe I can get some free passes lol.
@@MattCookOregon Least they could do for all the work you put into the video. Very quality work.
Absolutely beautiful man, thanks for sharing the footage and the info. We hope to pass up through Oregon sometime next year and we may just have to slap this guy on our list haha. Have an awesome week! - Shane
Thanks so much Shane. Let me know when you go to Oregon. Maybe I can meet up. Or at least give some suggestions.
@@MattCookOregon Will do! I'm guessing maybe spring or summer of next year depending how long it takes us to head up through Cali. :)
@@DnSAdventures Aug-Oct is the best time if that is an option. Otherwise summer lots of roads can still be closed, and terrible mosquitos. Either way there will be fun all times of year.

Reminder set.
BUZZZZ!!!!
@@MattCookOregon Yeah I had a work emergency that wasn't really an emergency.
Was there last week. Admission is $45 now but it’s still worth every penny.
It is a nice one. Dang. Everything getting so expensive.
Nice place to be and yep always respect Mother Nature haha
True. I am hoping to educate a bit more each video and help social media actually have a positive impact on our lands.
Sooooooo beautiful 💜 Is it hard to breathe up at the top?
Thanks! A little bit harder to breathe at 8000 feet. Depends on your tolerance. I had just camped at 7000 feet for a few nights before this. So I was used to it.
Did you say $30.00 for 15 minutes....is that round trip? How much to check a bag? Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks! It is round trip. Seems a little steep for just a ride but you do get a nice mountain experience for however long you want to stay. Also keeps the junkies out.
How’s the weather around the end of June early July? I know it’s up in the mountains but does it look like the video around that time?
Great weather! Tiny bit more snow on the mountains to look at. Maybe more mosquitos. This video was July.
It is scary steep.
True! Wish it had some snowboard runs.
you should have stayed for the dragonboat festival
Dang that woulda made a cool video! Same time every year?
Yep! Look for the Rip City Paddlers from Portland!!
"feeding wildlife is not okay" .... dude, the restaurant sells bags of munk food for $2 each.
Just because one person does something stupid, does not mean you have to. Common knowledge for people that spend time in the outdoors to not feed wildlife. We want to keep the wild, wild.
@@MattCookOregon k. Now go back to the restaurant and scold them for selling chipmunk appropriate food.
I wonder if Jack Black watched this?
Maybe?
