Hey Jimmy. Thank u so much for all the time, effort, energy and care that u put into ALL your videos!! The scenery, plant life, animals and best of all you. Always the brightest, calmest part of my day. I am playing catch up. Appreciate u and your awesome abilities. U should have thousands more subscribers. People are really missing out!! Safe travels.
We are both not able to hike very far, so I very much appreciate this short jaunt to the falls. Especially the wheel chair access, for those of us that Love being able to get to see this much of God's beauty it is wonderful. I will put it on our list and the solitude & sounds of the water soothes my soul. Thank you very much. PS: Loved the bird piece🤗
Great video Jimmy! Thank you so much for sharing. I wish to be right there with you....breathing in the beauty and peacefulness. Safe journey. Hugs to you!💖💖
Great video! What beautiful places in my back yard that I’ve never been to. I’m going to have to see that waterfall next spring. Your shots are just beautiful!
Hi Jimmy Enjoy 😃 I like the audio narrative beautiful water fall. Im watching on the big screen tv and commenting on my Iphone, hehehe. Danni is sitting watching too 🐾🐾 lol
Another lovely video Jimmy. In my experience with Snoqualmie Falls, one of my favorite. It is much more dramatic and interesting in the spring when the snow is melting and the spring rains fill the brim.
Beautiful falls n river area...that hike was lacking a hike...all it had was very little walk...ha! Still very beautiful...that bird was just too cute...your narrative was quite amusing...safe travels, Jimmy
I worked for the city water department. We had a dam for water storage. There were 6 streams that emptied into the reservoir and we had to set weirs and recorders to monitor the amount of water coming in to regulate what went out for the state water rights. We had stream gauges that had circular paper charts that had to be changed every week that were in boxes that had floats inside a round cylinder with a light wire with little round balls that engaged a wheel that turned the chart so an ink needle made a line on the chart. The new ones had solar panels that recorded electronically. We had one of those trolleys to get to the dam stem to regulate the water flow, 8' above full level. The reservoir had a 60' working level and in the summer at low level you were 68' above the water level and a 1/4 mile out. All done hand over hand to pull yourself along....James
Sorry you didn’t see the salmon. I live near there and saw a bunch of salmon spawning in the Elwha a few days ago. I love your videos and your sweet personality. Keep ‘em coming!
Another beautiful video! I enjoyed watching the little bird, & when you were discribing it's "happy dance" you brought a huge smile to my face. :) I so enjoy your perspectives of nature & your eye for beauty and interest. Thank you.
Looks like a stream gauge there. My dad and older brother were both hydrologists for the usgs. They would visit stream gauges to collect water samples for testing and measure the depth, rate of flow, turbidity, etc.
The cable cart was historically meant for transportation of goods or people across a body of water. Cheap to erect all you need is one rope and one cable. Usually you would see this in very remote area's and was a favorite among the mineral miners.
San Juan Islandsare fun to go to , Friday Harbor especially , you can see The Orca whales , and it is a fun ferry ride from Anacortes. It is a artsy place, and some good camping spots. Love you Jimmy.
Jimmy loved your bear t-shirt. Your cute little bird was an American Dipper. Great video of him! You should visit Mt. St. Helens someday. If you can get the right sunny day it is fantastic. There is the back way into the park, take Hwy 12 to the town of Randle. There is a Ranger Station in Randle, turn there. It will take you very close to Spirit Lake. There is also a campground, (just a big parking lot) you can spend the night in. Rangers will tell you about it. It was a great drive, not as many people. Safe travels.
Thanks! I had never heard of a dipper. They are now my favorite! Oh, thank you for the info! I would like to go there, but it will have to be next year.
It is so nice for people in wheelchairs and with other mobility issues to have access to that waterfall! I know my oldest daughter would love to see more places like this available, she is paralyzed from waist down and has limited use of her hands too. I told her once I sell my property and get a rig set up to travel I want to take her on a trip with me, a vacation for her and to spend time together. I need to start a folder of places to see that are wheelchair accessible. Thank you so much for making this video, it is wonderful, thanks for letting me tag along! Oh - and.... the bird - ADORABLE!
Watching your videos and having a morning cup of coffee is a great start to my day. Thanks for sharing all of the natural beauty you see with "we who are still stuck at home" Thanks.
Beautiful waterfall; but that bird! what a cute little creature and it was good at catching those minnows lol, the celebratory dance was awesome. The Olympics seem to be a very calm place and it's so beautiful. Thank you for taking us on this adventure with you. As always I enjoy starting my morning with my Wandering Jimmy Video fix :), love the opening music! Prayers and positive vibes for continued safe travels and adventures.
Youve done a stellar job on our olympics seattle tour art &natural beauty. The dipping bird is so cute! I think the ranger might have been hitting on you with that spawn talk.lol its finally cooling off here a bit. Dewd go to walmart &get a hammock&a good book. Your love of trees moss the sky and grass a nylon hammock takes no space at all and theyre awesome. I recommend a double one just in case of a bear or lonely ranger with hyperthermia hypothermia . Were having our annual block party happy dancing in my hood& a phenomenal gourmet homegrown potluck. I live in thee coolest neighborhood! What is descend on bend?
Thank you, Linda. LOL! You crack me up. Oh, have a blast in the hood! Descend is a gathering of like-minded, van-dwelling folk who come together every year to celebrate the outdoors with some good old-fashioned camping. Music, BBQ, World Famous Raffle, and activities for the family abound. Natural formations in the area include the Hole-In-The-Ground, the mile wide volcanic crater, and the Crack-in-the-Ground--an ancient volcanic fissure 2 miles long and up to 70 feet deep. Descend is the largest van-gathering you've never heard of. (this was taken from their website) www.descendonbend.com/
Oh jimmy I got exciting when you said I might come in to British Columbia man would I ever like to meet you one day you should plan a trip into Canada next year I would love to travel around and show you things how you have a great night jimmy. Great video ( Kev )
That would be awesome Kev! Maybe we can do that next summer. I hope to head up there and spend some time, not just a day or two. Do you live on Vancouver Island? Thanks for watching Kev!
wandering jimmy hey buddy no I don’t live on the island but I did live in bc there are a lot of things to see really think you would enjoy the views and beautiful scenery old historical sights and cool little towns I live in Saskatchewan now hope you have a great night my friend and would love to plan some time together next summer. ( Kev )
You should travel east of Portland along Columbia River and visit Chilnauna (not correct spelling)falls, then after Bend to Yosemite (my close by playground) and visit several beautiful falls.
Another great video, Jimmy. And once again I missed you by a day. But I've been getting the sun! Well if you're going east then south that won't happen again for a while anyway. Happee Trails!
OH how Cool was that... I could have watched that little bird all day..... I have never seen one of those.... To cool Jimmy Thanks.....OH WOW! The little soldier dude was guarding the Rock LOL!.... OH the Water fall is soo pretty!... Thanks Jimmy!....
Hi Jimmy. I’m in the Shasta/Trinity area in Northern California off the 299. I’m next to the Trinity river and was told that the salmon will probably start their run next Tuesday, the 25th. I don’t know how they know that but 6 new fishermen have arrived in the last hour. I’m a native Californian and didn’t know we had rivers with salmon in them. Maybe I’ll give it a whirl.
Love your bear shirt, at first I thought it was a porpoise. That little bird dancing and fishing was adorable. Have you had any problems breathing with the different altitudes. Heehee little ninja army dude watching the world go by. Waterfalls are majestic, and sound so powerful. Thanks for sharing. 👍❤️🍀
Looks like a kingfisher. Beautiful video. Your vlogs are top shelf. We really enjoy your travels and looking forward to the continued journey. Be safe give a heads up when you're in the Phoenix area. ☺👻. Breaking out the Halloween emoji.
@@wanderingjimmy1957 I really appreciate your historical background on places andvthings. I will remember the dipper bird. Look forward to winter. Be safe .💀👻 .
"His happy dance." "So he can see the world." I just love you, Jimmy! You have the best outlook on life. You share much more than scenery. Be well, friend and Travel Safe.
I live in Jax. Fl. I took several trips to Canada and Victoria was one of the places I went. It was so beautiful there. If you do make it there, you won’t be sorry. Thanks for the great vlogs! Goldie
Nice video. I was wondering what time of year the salmon go up the rivers and if you were there at the right time? I also wonder if you were above the recently removed dams that used to block the salmon from going all the way up the Elwha watershed and were removed to restore the natural river? This river was the scene of a huge scientific rehabilitation project after the dam removal, including trying to get salmon to go back to the upper reaches. The plan was to also bring back many other animals that feed on salmon as well as the nitrogen the salmon provide as they decompose or get pooped out that fertilizes the forests.
Who doesn't love waterfalls 💦. As always, one of my favorite RUclipsrs & an awesome video I'm curious about taking your van over to BC, on the ferry. Is that something you considered?
Aww...thanks Barb! It's quite expensive and the last time I did it, it was not a pleasant experience (the boarder patrol). Next time I'm up that way, I'll just drive over the boarder.
Awesome video again!👍🏻🤗👏🏻. 😎Wandering Jimmy you have been doing some wonderful videos in the state of Washington. With all your Subscribers so few viewers and even less make comments. I’m just thinking so many are miss out on the videos you have posted after leaving Scott and Terri’s. [that is about the time l subscribed to you] I don’t understand all this nomadic and RUclips live style. Can you explain it to me?
Thanks Kari! I actually get a good percentage of viewers and commenters compared to many RUclipsrs. It's not uncommon to only get 10% of one's subs watching a video. I usually get at least 30%. Explain the nomadic and YT lifestyle? Do you have any specific questions?
Hi Jimmy. If you are coming to the island you really need a good month here otherwise you are just doing the touristy stuff that everyone else does over and over again. Lots of beautiful remote places here, along with quirky fairs and festivals and individually interesting islands where a lot of creative people live and pursue their art. Carolyn came over but really didn't get to very much that is of interest here.
Really need to spend some time on Hornby Island. The original hippie heaven out here back in the day and still has some pretty quirky interesting hand made homes, cardboard bakery, Tribune Bay, lots of walking trails and no bears because it is an island far enough away from the mainland. Everyone walks or hitchhikes around. Great music in the summer, jazz at the Thatch Pub, artisans of all kinds. DeerHeart Sanctuary for meditation and they would likely let you park for a very small fee and some internet access. Could also use the small library for access. You would love it.
Marianne...yes, very relaxing. It's 4:25 am here and l'm just crawling into bed! Lol. Thanks Jimmy. Always so blessed to be able to see all of the beauty you find!
Salmon spawn in more shallow areas. Females. (does) prepare gravel beds (redds) to lay their eggs and the males (bucks) spreads their sperm over the eggs. The returning Salmon have spent 2-4 years in salt water and return to their natal streams to breed.
www.stevensauke.com/say/northwest.html Lol, a link to pronunciation of all of our city names...dont know if it has rivers in it though. Enjoying your videos!
That place reminded me of a place WunderHussy went🧐 someone actually had a job Manning that death trap trolley and I was thinking that the little bird was doing Happy Dance too lol cute!
Spectacular scenery! Love the water bird and enjoyed watching his happy dance. Be safe be happy.
I too loved the happy dance bird. Once again a relaxing video. Also like the hugging bear shirt and glad you are friend of the bears.
The bird was sooo coool, thanks Jimmy for being so observant. :)

I ended up doing a pretty crazy hike in this area(same day but different video). Check back tomorrow. Thanks Joe!
That little bird was amazing! Beautiful area! Glad you got to spend time there! It is very remote and wild feeling!
He's a dipper bird, never heard of it. They're now my favorite!!

I had visions of Jimmy dangling in that thing over the water. lol Cool video
He's an American Dipper and now my favorite bird. LOL! I'd probably still be hanging there if I did. Thanks much for watching, BlindViews!
Sorry you didn’t see the salmon. I live near there and saw a bunch of salmon spawning in the Elwha a few days ago. I love your videos and your sweet personality. Keep ‘em coming!
Oh my gosh, the little bird was so cute! Loved the happy dance! I could have watched him all day. Very nice area and I loved the waterfall.
Thanks Carol. I found out it's an American Dipper bird.
Thanks for taking us along, so much Beauty to be seen.
Loved watching the Happy Dancing Bird!
Thanks for watching, Rocky Mountain Girl!

Aww, thanks! The Dipper is now my favorite bird!
Late fall or early winter is a good time to see salmon (plus they are recovering on the Elwha, come back in 10 years you'll be good)

The gondola looking thing is for official use only. They use it for measuring depth and flow rate of the river. I’m not sure what the other thing was.
Yeah, I should have taken it for a spin!
A nother fun filled day! Thank's Jimmy!

You are welcome.
Hi Jimmy. I’m in the Shasta/Trinity area in Northern California off the 299. I’m next to the Trinity river and was told that the salmon will probably start their run next Tuesday, the 25th. I don’t know how they know that but 6 new fishermen have arrived in the last hour. I’m a native Californian and didn’t know we had rivers with salmon in them. Maybe I’ll give it a whirl.
Hi Theresa. Oh, nice. I think ithat would be quite a sight. I hope you get to see it! Thanks for watching.
Awesome absolutely breathtaking I can always look forward to Your videos after I'm highly stressed lol. They calm me right down thanks so much 💝💝🐦🐦
Thanks for watching, Lisa!
Sorry Jimmy there wasn't any salmon I think that Bird eat them all LOL. Take care, safe travels.

I love waterfalls, there are some good ones in Ga. You need to come and see them
Maybe next year😊

Hey Jimmy. I think that water trollly is for measuring water depth water velocity and possibly for fish counting. Just guessing, Jim
Thanks! I think you're right Jim!
Spawning takes place in the spring.
Cascade Loop in short order. Thank you for the Autumn preview of a wanderer that braved the Hurricane ridge unscathed
I think the bird is an Ouzel
Am at office stealing a look at your vlog!!!! Thank you for respite.

Thanks Gretchen!
I love your videos so relaxing and I just woke up at 6:30 a.m.
Marianne...yes, very relaxing. It's 4:25 am here and l'm just crawling into bed! Lol.

OMG that is the coolest bird EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love that bird!
Salmon spawn in more shallow areas. Females. (does) prepare gravel beds (redds) to lay their eggs and the males (bucks) spreads their sperm over the eggs. The returning Salmon have spent 2-4 years in salt water and return to their natal streams to breed.
Very cool! Thanks.
Salmon spawning is when they swim upstream to lay eggs and die. The bears will be out to eat the carcasses and the eagles too. Take care Jimmy.
Thanks Joan! Wish I could have seen that!
Check out the RUclips videos of the dams they removed on the Elwah River and the resulting rejuvenation of the salmon population--fascinating.
I read about it but I'll search for the videos. Thanks!
The salmon are in the river nikka boi
That was a little GI Joe figure
Yes!
Tributaries.

It's a Dipper bird.
