Katy problem saying to herself “just remember you love him. I love him” that’s how I am when my kids make me do stuff like this lol

[@Camquarters]

That large great room with the chandeliers was the inspiration for The Shining.

[@terrirobinson3876]

Katie you have my respect. No bathroom? And you looked like just any other day. Spencer you could tell that you were in your element. Thanks for sharing!

[@jessekiefer0206]

Yosemite is beautiful! One of my brothers before he passed away used to be a Park Ranger for Yosemite! Pizza looks delicious!

[@samchoi3961]

Loved seeing the national park with you. You should definitely do a series of these park videos. Wonderful to see nature. Thank you.

[@greerhighfan]

The shot at the end of half dome during golden hour was fantastic!

[@Lucilleisaball]

It looked so peaceful- love this ❤️

[@janettheriault6809]

Beautiful video & pictures. Thanks for sharing.

[@front_range_mama]

I wish I could go on a vacation this amazing 😍 thank you for sharing your journey ❤️

[@joannebush4491]

Sorry that was supposed to be editing. Katie hope you had fun.

[@anders_4138]

I would really like to visit some of the national parks. Even though the tents seemed nice, I am not much of a tent camper, meet you at the lodge😂

[@Eric-zo3mo]

@Best Life and Beyond. Spencer and Katie, Former President Obama visited Ahwahnee Meadow, at the park in August 24, 2016. There is a VR, virtual reality video on his archives online. You should see it. He did the anniversary of National Parks Day. Since, its Federal property.

[@kenziek222]

Katie where did you get that awesome Sherpa brand black fleece jacket?? I love it so much!

[@JennsHaunts]

Where were the bathrooms & the showers?

[@mcbigj]

Absolutely gorgeous footage. Glad you got to enjoy

[@cynthia6055]

Totally enjoyed!!!! Thanks Spencer and Katie!

[@lorrainecortes7296]

Love the scenery & your pizza.🧚‍♂️

[@lisamenezes7251]

Thanks for sharing! California is such a beautiful state…keep exploring!

[@francescamerica4098]

Awesome 👌 video Spencer and Katie

[@briannamoser5446]

My dad rock climbed half dome :) i love yosemite!!

[@vickiraub360]

Thanks for sharing your beautiful trip to Yosemite!

[@edermoreno3510]

Awesome video! How long was the hike from curry village to lower Yosemite falls?

[@brendamanu-tuinei4902]

Love it!!!❤️❤️. Now I want to go !

[@theathjr]

KT Bear is like ok Spence I’m staying at the Awahnee you can stay in the tent !! Lol

[@markloving1718]

Been to Yosemite many times! Enjoy!

[@Xoxo_maakaayla]

You guys should go to Zion National park. It’s about 7 hours from you.

[@aadams3995]

When did you film this video? Yosemite Falls are now at a trickle.

[@BestlifeandBeyondofficial]

In June

[@DestinationsChronicles]

Ahhh, you're in my neck of the woods now (literally the woods) I live in the mts just a wee bit north, however this week I've been in YOUR neck of the woods in DIsneyland LOL!

[@angelaturra74]

I Visit go to Yosemite National park in 1 Day 2019 Holiday very Beautiful From Australia

[@kerridutcher958]

You're a trooper Katie! This is beautiful 💕 like I always keep telling myself...when u come to a magnificent area like this, you're here for the scenery, the adventures...not the accommodations & its worth it! 🌟

[@imaginatenation3697]

I missed you guys! I was there the same time! Darn!

[@BestlifeandBeyondofficial]

Oh man!

[@paulawatson3709]

Love love this video. Such a beautiful place to explore. Keep them coming. ❤

[@wendykolpack69]

beautiful place thanks for sharing... glamping way to go other than cabins

[@michaelmurphy4088]

This is one my favorite videos of yours. We are missing Yosemite so much as we are unable to go this year (gas prices, etc.). Glad you both enjoyed the beauty of the park.

[@disneymatt01]

If you want more Glamping there’s a great place on the coast about Santa Cruz called Coastanoa. Check it out. ✌🏼👍🏼

[@ThatDisneyDame]

“Reminds me of Twilight”…. YES!

[@AlyviaGranillo]

I went to Yosemite about 51/2 years ago almost while I was on a college visit road trip it was beautiful hope to make it back soon 😁🙌🏽

[@melissajensen3166]

Great video Spencer.

[@francescamerica4098]

It looks so beautiful out in Yosemite

[@melissanicole4357]

Can you provide a link for the rafting?

[@bretthamilton4018]

I was just there with the kids, wish we saw you guys. My kids have your shirts. 🤓

[@tracylandry3821]

Spencer, surfing and mountains... come to Santa Cruz. Use your platform to help Big Basin, the first state park, which was to protect the redwoods. I've got a trailer you can stay in for free. We can go to Scopazzi's, where they make the Caesar salad at your table. Just up from Brookdale where all the Hollywood elite would come during prohibition. And the Lodge where we have a certified ghost!

[@BettyJo]

Niceeeee!!!!! You guys are awesome!!!!

[@rudedog7682]

Katie you did it! Spencer high five...Shaka!

[@markninofrancomanaog]

Wow!! You're right, the video does not do the Yosemite Falls justice. 6:27 where that guy is standing puts into perspective the scale of that thing.. I miss Yosemite

[@enchantkeymike8170]

Awesome job on the Video Spencer 📹 👏

[@torch3316]

man katie jams lol

[@donnamarler6945]

Loved this video and the music!

[@mauricioescalon7844]

Spence another home run! The editing flawless as usual and the sound track well chosen. That all being said ,that sunset over half dome… man that was priceless! Thanks guys for sharing your adventure.

[@kellydooling]

this is such a wonderful video! i live in arizona and haven’t been to yosemite yet, so it’s still on my bucket list. did you have problems with noise from other campers? i like the idea of the little cabins, but i’m not sure how i would sleep (i’m a very light sleeper). also, were there a lot of mosquitos? what a gorgeous place.

[@KristinaAdventures]

another great video! loved the shots and the editing, and of course the gorgeous views at Yosemite! thank you so much for sharing your adventures! 😊

[@mrs.minnie2002]

Beautiful, great video

[@sandcrawlerrelics3610]

Awesome! I haven’t been there since …a long time! I was a kid. Hikes are a great way to work off all that Disney food 😆

[@dianagriego7285]

This place just gives you all the peace vibes 😍 I love it!!!

[@strictlyspeaking1943]

Wow! Wow Wow!!!!

[@cabinvibesebaystore8956]

New sub! Liked 😊🙂🐸🌙

[@pixieofjoy]

Really nice video!

[@21erp]

Beautifully put together!! I've been waiting for you guys to do this trip:) My dad proposed to my mom in front of bridal veil falls and they ended up getting married at the valley Chapel. Glacer point is also one the of best view spots! We like to stay at the Yosemite View Lodge right outside the El Portal entrance. You can get a room right on the river with a balcony or patio, fireplace, kitchenette, and jacuzzi tub. Your video makes me want to go again!😊

[@angelafowler2413]

ahhh my daughter actually lives and works in Yosemite! She has one of the houses on the Ahwahnee Meadow that faces Half Dome. Had many a meals at Base Camp, pizza's at the Deck, and drinks at 1899! Loved seeing this footage, you did a fabulous job!!! We will be there visiting again end of July! Such a beautiful place!!!!!! And tunnel view always looks fake to me too LOL. Reach out the next time you go, I can get you some inside scoops ;-)

[@stigsjolund]

Fantastic presented. Tank you.

[@stevem.6557]

Definitely a bucket list trip !! Hope to make it out there someday.

[@donnytucker]

I loved every minute of this. I look forward to visiting one day. I want to swim in that mountain water, go hiking, etc.

[@seanquinn9456]

Beautiful simply beautiful

[@nancytroast9297]

Awesome video. The editing keeps getting better and better. Thank you for taking us with you on your trip!

[@jama17gill]

Very cool, Katie and Spencer!!! So beautiful!!! Glad you guys had a nice time there!!!

[@flemingant]

How long did it take to take to walk to Yosemite falls and back?

[@jerrylava]

Next time have Breakfast at the Ahwahnee !!! Its the best !!!

[@carmencabrera5727]

this looks like fun and beautiful place!! where is this place located at bestlife and beyond?!!

[@timdarcy4170]

That Lodge kinda had the Shining Look

[@jonijohnson5110]

I really enjoyed this one. Yosemite is beyond description- soooo beautiful. Thank you for taking us with you. I hope you will do something with the big trees at Sequoia National Park- maybe see the General Sherman 👍. I’m sure whatever story you tell, you will tell it well. Thanks again 👏👏👏.

[@nataliesuarez4010]

Beautiful! I’m from Arizona and have been thinking of visiting Yosemite but after watching this video I’m definitely going, thank you!

[@michelleenzinger8866]

i wonder if they have an accessable cabin

[@michelleenzinger8866]

very awesome views. ty

[@torch3316]

you didn't eat at the lodge? You missed out

[@BestlifeandBeyondofficial]

We were saving our calories for pizza again 🙈 but hey, that just means we have to go back!

[@Jeannified]

Ahhhh…what an incredible video you guys made! Love Yosemite! It is my favorite National Park! This has really kick-started me to get my husband and son up there! So beautiful and serene! The awesomeness of this place cannot be overstated!

[@thedorseyway]

Awesome video! All the views were so beautiful. Did you guys show the shower/bathroom area? Camping/glamping looks good on you guys. You should do it more often.

[@88kellychan]

This is beautiful wow

[@kingsgirl1182]

I’m a national/state park & camping addict. Watching my two favorite KZbinrs out in nature is the best. By far my favorite video!

[@BestlifeandBeyondofficial]

Wow thank you!

[@Calinia_LiViN]

This was very relaxing 😎. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks best life well done.

[@bec.11]

Looks amazing 🇦🇺 bucket list 👌 item if you had to choose one which would it be ? Yosemite or Yellowstone I might not be able to do 2....... this Aussie needs help guys 😁🇦🇺🙋‍♀️

[@julial7994]

Wow, so beautiful!! Thanks awesome video Spencer and Kaite. Loved the editing and music!

[@lindacollier6339]

Love your video, felt like I was there even got a burn in my calf 🤭. Wait wat? Half dome turns golden!!! That was exquisite. I was a yes let's go girl for camping/glamping, vegas, palm springs, TJ back in the day. After a heart surgery @ 50 I need more info like I want to see showers & bathrooms? FYI. 😁❤❤

[@patrickhausenfleck9045]

🤷You had me at "PEETS☕"...😅

[@DanitzaLadwig]

Katie is my spirit animal. The meadow reminds her of Twilight. Same, girl, same.

[@maureenb1109]

What a beautiful place love all the nature my bucket list of places to see have fun guys and proud of you Katie looks like Spencer has made a camper out of you now lol 😊❤️

[@TammyHunt]

Katie if anyone ever questioned how much you love Spencer this is the answer haha!! Sooo much love!!

[@Breezybearx]

I have so many childhood memories coming here every summer with my family growing up. I have been to every place you guys went to and shared with us. I remember the pizza being the best pizza and the squirrels always coming up to us and a lot of raccoons back in the day would hang out by the pizza deck waiting for food. Thank you for sharing with us. Such a beautiful Vlog 🌲🌲🐿

[@stephanied3884]

You’re hitting all my childhood memories.. Disney, Vegas and now Yosemite!! I can see the Grand Californian and Ahwahnee connection now! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@sandinaiman1156]

Thank you for this beautiful video! We are looking forward to our trip to Yosemite in 3 weeks. We will be spending 6 nights at the Ahwahnee. So far, we have a Valley Floor tour booked, a sunset hike with a guide and an early morning photography class that will give us tips how to use our mobile phones to take good photos. Like you, we are planning to rent bikes one day. Other than that, we will spend our time walking and exploring. The last time we were there was in 1998 to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday.

[@angelafowler2413]

have fun, I'll be there in 5 weeks. I want to stay at the Ahawahnee, but my daughter actually lives in a house on the Ahawahnee meadow, so it is hard to justify paying the expense when we can stay looking at half dome for free LOL.

[@disneyparksloveraz]

IMO, Yosemite valley is one of the most beautiful places on earth! Sadly it's been 20 years since I've been there & now I really want to back! Next best thing is watching your beautiful vlog of your trip. Thank you so much for sharing this with us! 😊

[@annylemusar5364]

This place is Pet frendly?

[@birdhousegarden]

Awesome video! People travel from all over the world to see Yosemite.... and it's in our backyard. :) Love your channel!

[@hbkim3651]

How beautiful!! I am so glad you were able to see that before the flood came. I was thinking of you when I saw them on TV. Also glad to see that some places seem to have handicap access.

[@gabrielncali8999]

Super cool you guys! Worth the wait of the video! Thank you!

[@cheryloster3492]

Oh I love it there. I have camped, hiked, and fished for most of my life. The forest is so peaceful. I do love to stay at the Ahwahnee though!! It’s very cool. Thank you for stirring my memories. Wonderful video 💯💗 btw my dog barked at the coyote. She watches with me. 😂

[@wendymarz1]

Beautiful! Yosemite is on my bucket list! Thanks for sharing your wonderful trip! ❤️

[@CherHean]

Beautiful! Loved this video! Thank you! ❤️❤️

[@heathercaswell]

This looks like it was such an adventure!! Great video guys!

[@bridgerandrews7272]

Truly, best & beyond!🤗 so good and beautiful... A brother of mine and his family and some in-laws go camping every year oftentimes at Yosemite. They're always praises afterwards but their words and pics always aren't enough. Your vlog does more. Are there "considerations" (don't know what to call it exactly) for the disabled? Gotta ask. It all "feels" so breathtakingly beautiful. I'm really at a loss for words when contemplating such majestic beauty. Thanks for sharing.👍

[@angelafowler2413]

My daughter lives and works there and I have a mobility issue, but I really really love visiting. There are many paved paths in the valley. But, it is ALOT of walking. I would recommend a wheelchair or scooter (or bike if you can do it). But you can get to Yosemite Falls, Bridal vail Falls, and into the village on paved paths. Another great hike is Happy Isle, which is also paved. And honestly, you can see so much scenery just sitting in the valley.

[@bridgerandrews7272]

@@angelafowler2413 thanks for commenting! I'm glad to hear there's a lot of paved paths (they would indeed be quite useful). If it were up to me and all things being equal I would like to go there sometime. 😉

[@lorenajones3729]

Wow, the last time I was there was in the early 60s! It sure has changed. I remember the falls and all the hiking, I don't think there were many places to eat. For the most part, we had to bring our own food and tents. Loved your choice of music to go with this video.

[@lamikahawkins9442]

I love Yosemite! It's so beautiful, no matter what season you visit. I'm glad it's only a little over a three hour drive from my home in San Jose.🤗
