- Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #776
Date of adventure: 2/19/24
Ancient Lake Manly dried up 10,000 years ago... but thanks to last summer's monsoons, it temporarily reappeared! And because of the recent rains from the atmospheric river, it's now deep enough to kayak in! So my friend Paul invited me to join him as he brought his canoe out to Badwater Basin, and attempted to float on this prehistoric lake.

In 15,000 years may your foot prints still be there. Thanks Paul and Hussy, that was alot of work...but fun too.
Three (3) Wonderhussy videos this week!!! I'm in heaven.
Lake Manly. Itchy boots is pretty good too.
That was a super funny video. Paul is such a character. I'm glad that you recognized his veterans status. Stay blessed
The Death Valley Yacht Club is back and better than ever! ⛵️
What a great guy!!! We all need handsome friends like Paul.
Paul is a great guy...
This is one of those once in a lifetime things, canoe on Lake Manly.
Crow Bar Saloon is looking great...hamburgers looked splendid.
Thanks Sarah and Paul.
Thanks Sarah and Paul for another fun adventure video!
Wasn't much water........ But it's still an adventure!!!!😂👍👏🏻🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Pauls a baddass
Wherever people congregate you can find a vendor selling trinkets or food, I'm surprised no vendor was there. Your vlogs always make me happy!
..Agree ,,WH needs to set up a kool-aid stand ..
I've seen people selling water. Plus it's a national park.
For the middle of nowhere, there is plenty of adventure to record!
Thanks for sharing with us!
Lake Manly is 6 miles long, 3 miles wide and up to 2 feet deep. You could almost bring a "floatie" with you again . LOL
What a pleasant surprise with Paul and his canoe, he is ready for anything cause he's a Marine. Nice lunch stop at the
world famous Shoshone Crowbar Cafe . Great visit there Sarah. Enjoy your next trip south.
It actually got to be 7 miles long. Apparently a 'mile' has already evaporated. LOL
@@jazzcatt Could be the wind and some extra mountaintop melting adding to the amount.
@@hestheMaster7 Miles long was at it's largest. Mountain snow melt? I suppose that would depend on the watershed of the mountain. I believe it was the torrential rains. Wind evaporates the water faster, but yes, the wind actually pushed a lot of the water to the end in the direction the wind was blowing. Pretty amazing stuff.
World Famous Crowbar Cafe. Luv it
What a nice adventure with Paul! Thanks, Sarah!
We have a canoe and that looked exhausting. Nancy
Paul was the star of this vlog , Good job Paul.
Now that was a very good adventure. Next Paul and Wonder hussy will be on the Discovery channel.
I bet Lake Manly will be sticking around for quite a while given how much water there must be in the whole Amargosa river watershed.
You have the coolest friends lol looks like a sort of good time minus the sore feeties
Great video Wonderhussy!!😂❤
Thank you both awesome 👍👍
Yea!🎉 Another wonderful trip.
Oorah! Simper Fi.
I was wondering when you were going to do this! At least you got to float on something that doesn't exist most of the time!
As someone who grew up a half hour from the Atlantic ocean I've had enough of sand and salt water, my father loved taking me and my two sisters to Sandy Hook New Jersey Island Beach State Park or seaside every chance he had, my mother would make sandwiches a gallon of iced tea we'd load up te old DeSoto with chairs umbrellas toys everything we needed for a day at the beach, when we ot home we'd all take turns taking a bath in our clawfoot tub with the same water, we didn't have a shower.
Great show
Bonus video from WH. Nice
At 16:06 I got a glimpse of Death Valley Root Beer. That is made in Inyokern. It tastes like A&W used to taste in the 50's! Delicious. You need to also try their Vanilla cream soda. Made with REAL cane sugar.
Ancient lakes are so fascinating.
Row row your boat gently down the the stream 😮
I spent a lot of time at Death Valley in the late 70's and the place was deserted hardly ever saw anyone for days. Now looking at recent videos of Death Valley it looks like a zoo now.
How highs the water momma? two inches and rising? to fun thank you ALL stay safe
Great video except that I was a little concerned regarding wear and tear on Paul's feet. Hope his "landing gear" heals up pretty quick. Anyway, I found this very interesting. Thanks to Sarah and Paul
for inviting us along, and much love from northeast Missouri.
Amazing how much rain it takes to fill up that lake. Great video, and many thanks to Paul.
That was fun. You'll have to show us what the lake looks like when it dries.
The clouds are something else. Second time watching this…love it…thank you
Paul is great. I love this!!!
Hey Wonderhussy!👋🥰
At 6:49
Back in the late 60's and early 70's, my Dad and I would move our Aluminum, Grumman Sport canoe from the truck to the water with a wheel set up that would clamp to the back transom. (You can hang an outboard motor on the Grumman as it has a flat transom at the rear)!
People would look at us a little funny too, but we didn't give care about what they thought, we were having a great time all over Oregon and Washington states!
Was about 12 years old one summer when we were out on a Lake, when we had a conversation with 2 young women (College) in their canoe.
My Dad definitely scored some points with me that day by going over to talk to them, as they were both Topless! 😁
Good Dad! 👍
Mike in San Diego. 🌞🎸🚀🖖
I hope you did more for “better call Paul” than just buying him lunch. Semper Fi
ikr 😉
It was good seeing Paul again!!! Poor guy I hope his feet healed! That looked painful.
You made me laugh in this video 😂 but you always do that!
That food looked good!!!!
hey w/h, paul seems for sure like a GOOD friend, and a GOOD someone to hang with.
Paul seems like a really good guy. I'm glad you bought him dinner, he put in some effort for the tiniest bit of fun. I wish I could be in that side of the country. Hopefully someday
Paul is a trooper!😂 Embrace the suck😅! And you bought him lunch! Cool!
Kudos to Paul for Paul, for being such a trooper, for going the distance to the water & back ~ ! Not every adventure has a triumphant ACT III. Keep the adventures rolling & Carpe’ Diem ~ !
You might as well throw those galoshes away those leaks don't ever heal up by themselves and they are pretty much worthless with holes in them
Or maybe you could try Flex Seal but that stuff would probably cost as much as a new pair of boots
Yes you need a new pair of “wellies”!!! 😃
Actually we used bicycle tube patch years ago on waders and had great results... (I guess it depends on the budget)😉
I'm glad you got to take the plunge in the temporary lake Wonderhussey! Ahoy !
They're essentially ga-"losses" at this point 😂
thanks
🎶"woOonderHUssY .. .. .. Where Ya Gonna Go Noww?" 🎵 to surprise us on a Friday❕️ 🤩🤩🤩
*YAY❕️*
galoshes are technically over boots (pulled over work boots)
irrigators are rain boots (with crew socks underneath)
BONUS!!!👍🏻😄👍🏻🎉🥳🎉🎆🎆🎆❤!!! A happy salty wonder adventure! 😁
When does the new 'Cap'n Wonderhussy cereal come out?.. Now that you are a veteran salt water sailor.
Submarine sailor.
Thank you so much I used to clean up the bar and I got to keep all the money on the floor. You have made my day. Be blessed.
I really enjoyed this episode. How intriguing is the reappearance of Lake Manly. Wowsers I say! Well done WH & Paul for providing such fantastic content.❤
Wowziers it is!! Wowziers it is!!
One summer years back a man walked away from his car and hiked out on that hard salt field of salt crystals and collapsed from the heat. When the search team found him he was of course dead. But the amazing thing is what state it was said his body was found in. The water in his body was said to had been drawn off by the salt beds he was laying on. It was said he was so dry his bones could be heard to rattle inside his body as they carried him off. Or so I heard.
Paul knows his beer.
That was the longest boat ramp I have ever seen. But it was a once in a lifetime experience to canoe on a dry salt flat!
I like to "put in where I can" too! lol!
That's the way adventures work. There is always at least one unknown element you didn't expect, and you have the choice to either embrace it or not. Either way, it almost always makes for a great story. Thanks, Sarah and Paul, for letting all of us tag along. You both made it far more fun than one might have expected.
Thank you hussy for the experience and adventure with you 👍🥰🥰
Badwater is also the start of a 135 mile ultramarathon that goes to the top of Mount Witney representing the lowest and highest points of California. Semper Fi
Paul is cool and that cafe makes nice burgers
Paul Your a BAAdass and I envy you for being hanging with Wunderhussy
Nice vid wh
Hello from Colorado
Thank you Paul!! 😃
You have the best friends!
I heard that lake had about a foot of water in it, and instantly thought of you. Glad you got to go on it. Also heard you might get more rain.
Thanks for taking us along Sarah!
LOVE AN LIGHT
Paul gets an A for effort. Curious, I saw a tiny little building with windows that couldn't be used for much given it's size at the bottom of your road (at the end of the video). What is the story/history of that odd tiny little building that looks like it might have served as a guard house? Is it just an old preserved outhouse?
Finally got to see this . . ..
Despite all the challenges on that paddle adventure you gotta admit you had a "boat load" of fun! 😊
Thanks Paul , what a guy
BAUTIFUL !!!!
Hopefully Lake Manly will fill up even deeper we all can really enjoy the lake there in Death Valley.... yippie. 😂
Proud of Paul!
Oh my, how fun it was. Good people and good times Sarah. Love your adventures!
My late father was on the board of directors of Cummins Engine manufacturing company.
I have a cottage on Sebago Lake, Standish, Maine, US. Sebago Lake is Portland Maine water supply. It is 316 feet deep in deepest place. 49-feet below sea level.....
Another great video
How awesome to be able to be boating in Death Valley.
Live it Large!
The lost Spanish galleon may float out of the Mojave dunes into Death Valley when is becomes part of the Pacific Ocean again. 💜
ha! i haven't heard the work 'Raunchy' in decades! i love it.
also am enamored with your adventures. thanks!
Imbracing the suck...thanks for sharing
You absolutely crack this old man up! Lmao
That's epic, Wonderhussy!😂❤🎉
Great video of badwater basin. I was there in the middle of s blistering August. No crowds that day. Really enjoyed watching you both eat those burgers. Made me hungry.
Once again Wonderhussy nailed another cool video .
Unbelievable!! Fun to watch. Thank you guys.
You worked that poor guy too hard, you owe him !
Thanks to you both, and your lunch made me hungry ⭐️🤩😎
This was a nice adventure vlog. Interesting that the basin is filled with all the rain coming into the desert. It is a sight to see the water in this lake. It was fun seeing you both having fun and a great meal afterwards. Best wishes and regards! Looking forward to the next adventure soon! 😀🤙!
Yummy, A root beer float! Looks so good Sarah!!
That is cool.
Canoeing in the desert? why not? Rock on!! Thank you Paul all your arduous efforts.
When I heard that I knew you’d be doing a video about it. They say it’s expected to stay around for a while, but it is shrinking and getting harder to kayak in!
1:33 and it's my lunch time talking about a Root beer ! I'm going to A&W in Ortonville ! Have a Great Day 🌊 🇫🇮🇺🇸
Very nice outing . Could become a regular event. The Death Valley Regatta. Another Wonderhussy Spectacular. 😮 Since your boots are only good for draining pasta now, you may as well cut 'em down to cover your feet when wading. Thanks Sarah
I like how the tablecloths are blue on one side of the restaurant and red on the other, lol
I love this channel!!!❤❤❤
Love love love as usual. The last time I went to Death Valley was in 1979; I need so badly to go back there
I prefer a canoe trip in Ohio along fresh water streams, in the cool of the shade in the summer.
I was there on that Saturday of that weekend and the water was just below my knees. I was thinking "it HAS to be the wind blowing the water away, THAT much couldn't have evaporated in 2 days!!!"
I’m with you about root beer floats! Great canoe adventure. And thanks for the review of the Crowbar- I’ll stop by next time.
My daughter and I bought the inflatable double kayak on a weekend. That didn't work . I guess you need to find the deeper part. It was a real workout walking in the mud but it was worth it. Death Valley is so beautiful. I can't wait to see what the salth flats look like when the water is gone.
