ROBBERS ROOST… A Day Hike That Could've Ended Badly
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- According to local legend, Robbers Roost (also known as Shaman’s Cave or the Hide Out Cave), located northwest of Sedona but visible from any high vantage point in town, was a hideout for bandits and bootleggers, hence the name. (A film called Robbers’ Roost was photographed in Sedona in 1932, but no scenes were filmed at its namesake.) While that has never been proven, there’s no doubt this off-the-beaten-path cave with expansive views of the surrounding forest would make a great lair. www.sedonamont...

Nothing is ever a mistake. Good job getting to where you were going.
That was pretty scary, but I'm really impressed on how you handled it - especially alone in that heat. It's definitely humbling but you got out! Awesome job on carrying extra water and not freaking out!
Hello. Go girl. I enjoyed very much your video's. I'm glad you are save with good video. Thank you for sharing your story. Amnon from NYC.
Beautiful scenery and photography! Thank you!
Thanks Terry!
I LOVVVVVVEEEE SEDONA!!!! Thanks for sharing 👍
Sure is beautiful there! Thanks for sharing your experience
My pleasure!
@@RachelinRealLife you're welcome! We really enjoy making outdoor videos also
I love that you still have a sense of humor after all that. Glad it worked out ok! We have very similar day pack philosophies! Better to be prepared, plus I enjoy the hike more knowing I can survive if need be. 👍🏻
Amen Dani! I have no interest in being an ultralight hiker!!
Wow! Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Looks like a great hike. Thanks for bringing us along. 😃
Thanks for watching!
Amazing! Proud of you.
I am hoping to run into some ppl who know exactly where they are going and follow. This hike is supposed to be semi short but it looks like you could get lost so easily.
If you have a 4x4 vehicle or ATV, you can drive straight to the trailhead, where you'll hike down the ravine. There are a lot of trails once you get across the ravine. My recommendation is to take the high trail and you'll (should) run into it. If you don't, based on my video at 15:35, turn back and take another. It's only about 20-30 feet from where all the trails split. So not far to backtrack and try again.
@@RachelinRealLife I don’t think we will rent a 4x4 so we will most likely have to do the longer one without a high clearance vehicle.
That’s an interesting hike. Wonderful cave. You seem to be in good shape climbing and hiking in extreme heat. You are so determined to get it right, I like to see that. Love your pictures and your stories are well done. You seem to know your limitation, stay safe and well. Thanks for the ride.
Thanks Robert! Slow and steady... and plenty of water helps. Thanks for watching!
How beautiful, I see why people want to go there. Thank you Rachel for showing us this beautiful land. Please be careful, I know that you already are, just the mom in me had to say that. God Bless.
Yep, my mom is the same! I take it slow and evaluate my course...I'd hate to end up with a sprained ankle or worse. Thanks for watching!
hello
I actually live in Arizona. Need to do more hiking. That looked challenging but fun. Great views too. I'm glad you didn't biff it in the roost.
I love these random places. I want to look for the lost dutchmans mine in the superstition mountains in Arizona lol
Do it! 😁
Awesome video
Thanks!
@@RachelinRealLife your very welcome
Does it get really cold at night there?
In the summer no. It's in the 80s. If you're at a high elevation, 6,000+ feet, summer nights can get into the high 60s to low 70s.
You don't want to get randy in the roost?
Great camera work .place looks amazing I can only imagine stargazing at night. I would definitely add a telescope to my list of items to take. Be safe have fun 👽✌
Thank you! The sky is amazing at night. A lot of places in AZ are 'dark skies'. It's a great place for stargazers!
I am in one of the most beautiful places lakeside beach park in N.Y. by lake Ontario. I have a nice bonfire so peaceful here .I rode my evoke 27 miles to get here. Hiking for me would be hard as I have one leg.100 wow 57 here .It is a great view where you are.
Oh, yes I remember you mentioning your leg on my other video. I'll have to look up the evoke. Fires are great! They've been banned in many places here in AZ.
@@RachelinRealLife I just had corn on the grill I made a couple of really short videos I was riding my bike I went to waste and I asked them if they have any corn and this guy went and picked corn and gave it to me for free
That furry cat muff seems to be working LOL
I did the same thing hit the lower level. But turned around. It was definitely a little tricky. I ended up running into other people and it ended up being a team effort to find it. Which we did. 😊
There is no way I can hike in that kind of heat. Good job that you are doing it though. You are missing one key item on your hike. Hiking sticks, we both got them 2 years ago and we don't go anywhere without them. They are a life saver on rocks and such. Wonderful area, I have never been to Arizona yet. :)
I've got trekking poles but don't need them for every hike. I like them for steep hikes and/or long hikes. Along the side of the rock, they would have been more hazardous than my hands alone.
@@RachelinRealLife That makes sense, that was quite the hike. I am to clumsy to hike something like that. And it could be as I get older, I like the easy trails now. But I enjoyed the hike with you. Have a great day.
So glad to have you along for them!
I'm looking forward to when you do the Grand Canyon.
Already done! Here you go ruclips.net/video/M4Wo_0Y6W6A/видео.html
OMGosh...it was so scary...LOL...I'm terrified of heights...I worried about whether or not you should be doing this..shows my age, huh :)...thanks for sharing...take care
Haha...this made me laugh! I'm careful so no worries there.
Did you have cell reception there? Something with navigation would be a good safety options like a In Reach if your going to be hiking more..
Emergency calls.
Do I need to call Search and Rescue for you? ;)
"Turn at the cactus." That's the most profound thing I've ever heard. It's changed my life.
Good catch on the cactus...it was a dad joke I couldn't resist!
Hello from Amsterdam. Long time ago. I like you and your vids really. After watching your latest vid (with the bees) and later this one, I wonder about one thing. Hiking in Arizona this time. Are you never worried about the wildlife? I mean beeing attacked by cats, wolves, bears or snakes? I do not know really but is this a thing you should be aware of while hiking? And if so, how do you protect yourself?
Hiking in Arizona is veiliger dan wandelen in de Bronx! Waar je het meeste van moet opletten zijn de cactussen in Arizona!
I love a good suspense thriller! 😊 That was BEAUTIFUL, GORGEOUS, AND SCARY! UGH -- that slip toward the end!😲 I’m not a hiker, but thanks for doing it FOR me 😉 Were there any snakes? Would you still take that same route again, though? Glad you made it 😊 (you’re a wild woman! 😜)
The times that I didn't have my camera out were a thriller for sure! I would take the correct route next time. There were too many places that I could've fallen down the side very easily. I have yet to see any snakes in AZ; just a lot of lizards, giant lizards, and some small lizards 😁. Glad you enjoyed!
I can deal with lizards -- but not their legless cousins! 🐍😱
😂
Went here with my boyfriend and his parents in February. Once you get to the first 'cave' looking rock down at the bottom (from the start of the hike), you stay left and then you'll reach a climbing point that will be to your right - stairs, basically. Just go up, up up and then you'll basically be there. Sorry you had to go such a long and sketchy route!
You really should not be hiking by yourself. Especially in Arizona where the trails are mostly unmarked and you easily get lost.
You are so cute
Ahh...thanks!
