ARKANSAS MOST DANGEROUS HIKE | OZARK NATIONAL FOREST

For the second time were hiking Arkansas most dangerous hike. The eye of the needle trail is located in the Ozark National Forest. We set up camp near the Buffalo National River. That evening Jonathan meets up with us and we cook tacos. The next morning we drive to Kyles Landing Campground where the trail head is located. We see amazing waterfalls, fossils, and geological features. That evening we return back to camp where Kellie cooks Chicken Pad Thai.

[@tomsergesketter5138]

That may have been your best video of all. Really enjoyed the hike. Jonathan said it best. “Magical!”

[@azdesertrat9104]

How amazing that y'all are young enough to go and explore all these beautiful places!! Thank you SO much for sharing all these beautiful God-made places! Your young once, so enjoy all the beautiful nature God gave us in our country! Believe me, when your old (like I am) you really appreciate these vlogs and young folks like y'all who bring them to us! THANK YOU!!

[@lindahardy8713]

Thanks for taking me on that amazing hike. I sure as heck couldn’t do that now at 72 and I don’t think I could have even done it in my 30’s. I’m short & my legs are really short so even at the beginning elevation rise, I’d have needed ropes. I really enjoyed this video... one of your best... and Cody, I really enjoyed your excitement & appreciated your encouragement of your hiking partners & backing up Kelly when she climbed or stepped precariously. You’re a true southern gentleman!

[@Walibnzas]

That hike was one of the prettiest you've done. Lost paradise vibe to it for sure. Thats why I'm glad to live in arkansas. 😊 Great job on the vid.👍

[@mena580]

What a magical hike! Jonathan was right! Some of the landscapes looked like something you'd find on an alien planet! Just WOW! Thanks for taking us along!

[@punktexas]

I almost fell outta my chair when you said "Johnny Wild"...lol. Looks like he has a new topper on his truck. Absolute beautiful trail. Thanks for taking us along.

[@nancygreggpasiecznik4673]

This was the first video by you that I have seen. I don't know how I ran across it, but I am sure glad I did! Your tents caught my attention, and your channel title, "Dome Life," grabbed it and sunk in! I subscribed even before much of your video played. Thank you for making such a glorious video. People who have never been to Arkansas have no idea what a gorgeous state it is! I went to law school at the University in Fayetteville back in the late 1970's--three of the best years of my life! I think I need to go back there! Looking forward to your next video. Thank you again.

[@RicG.]

At 9:21 p.m. tonight, it will be: the 21st minute, of the 21st hour, of the 21st day, of the 21st week, of the 21st year, of the 21st century 😎

[@dawndietz4654]

Wow,that was an epic vlog! Y’all hit this one outta the park! Indian Creek was so beautiful it didn’t look real. Definitely as amazing as anything out West. The true natural beauty of Arkansas astonishes me💕. Cody you have the eye of an artist with your camera shots, unusual angles and great perspective. 5 stars guys! It’s gonna be hard to top this one but I know y’all will💕. Say hi to Johnny Wild👋🏻.

[@Live2dayWanderland]

I agree this was definitely a home run, I've always loved Arkansas, my grandparents lived up in Springdale and we used to camp alot, I think that's why I relate and love Kelly and Cody so much, brings back great memories

[@reelfishin6019]

Agreed 100% period

[@candybrown3785]

Wow 😳💖 loved this so much. The capturing of the hike and scenery was absolutely perfect. Like Jonathan said "Magical" place. No man could create such beauty like that...mother nature is phenomenal. The food Kelly makes is to die for. What a wonderful day from beginning to end... bonus the Elk. 💗💗💗

[@carolguezen5829]

Bravo Jonathan! Kelly...Cody...thanks for showing another spot to add to my bucket list. Keep livin' the dream.

[@judyherman1249]

I've only seen about a half dozen of your vlogs now. But in one of them you were showing us some Bigfoot cotton balls with wax in them to use as fire starters. There is another good thing to use that works really well also. Birch bark has it's own natural oil or sap, something like that, that can start very easily. Doesn't matter if you use a flint, match, lighter, etc. It is very good if you have nothing else to start your fire. Even if you're not around birch trees where you camp you can collect it, put it in a tin, and save it for later. Very beautiful scenery on your hike. Thank you for taking us along.

[@bradshutler9356]

The suspense the drama the mayhem the danger and oh, secret dinner was almost to much for my old heart to handle. Awesome place and video.

[@bdbgypsy68]

"every breath you take" now the song is stuck in my head thank you

[@gatormcclusky1]

That looks like one fun hike!. & that meal she cooked! Yummy 😋😊

[@boonedog1457]

You all eat better than any campers I know! Great video.

[@jessys9868]

I just watched this again, and again I thought not for love nor money could I do that climb!!

[@boonedog1457]

My wife and I have hiked over 18,000 miles each and the trail you are on has to be one of the most dangerous ever! It's gorgeous though. Thank you for taking us on your hike. Now I can't wait to get back to Camp and enjoy another great meal.

[@markshaw7947]

I have been many places but that hike you shared was unreal, surreal, supernal and awe inspiring. Not to mention fun beyond fun. Thanks for sharing.

[@errolkumendong2729]

Most ppl here comment about the hike, but let me comment about the cooking. Most American will eat junk food when camping, but you guys do the REAL COOKING, especially your Pad Thai (+ authentic fish sauce) You might be the first American cooking Asian dish on camping I've seen so far. YESSSSS..... REAL COOKING. and that's what I do for living and camping. I'm a Chef btw. Like Robert Irvine said "REAL COOKING !". And that's what make you guys above and beyond...Great hike + great editing + Cherry on top ...REAL COOKING ! BRAVO !!!!

[@garykos1308]

The leaning back scares a lot of people. He didn't quit. With practice brings confidence and french toast.

[@sportstyler50]

Wow amazing water falls. But hike looks 😳dangerous.

[@stevensanders235]

I used Tim Ernst's book and hiked the Indian Creek drainage about 15 years ago. Beautiful place. Seems like we meandered around a bit more as the trail was pretty difficult to follow or non-existent at times. We got up to some point and there was a cave marked off limits because of a protected bat species, so that's as far as we went. I think we missed a lot of the actual creek views. Thanks for giving us another look at the drainage.

[@exploringnature6319]

Oh wow! I grow up listening to music like that. I’m from the country from Puerto Rico

[@karamaybee2314]

I make it at home all the time, I'm gonna start making it at camp now. Sometimes I skip the meat and just do zucchini and mushrooms. One of my favorite dishes too!

[@jamieskitchenadventures75]

Thanks for the PC mention - so glad you like the garlic press! Cody, you should be a middle school Science teacher the way you geek out over all of the nature stuff!

[@cindymartin1936]

All I can say is WOW! what a beautiful place!

[@reelfishin6019]

I played that song while watching this video. Really Epic!

[@archangel7673]

Now that was some very cool scenery. Thanks for sharing,as I will probably never get a chance to view it in person. My knees are not that young anymore.

[@mt7427]

You could never get me on that trail! But I’m glad I got to see it!

[@veldasellers4021]

Beautiful hike. My palms were sweating just watching you three trek those dangerous and slippery rocks. Loved every minute of it! ❤

[@BelievesSouly]

I love the way your so attentive and tender with your princess, you don't see that much today... I applaud you and we'll all of Yas are good to each other it's refreshing

[@miltonthacker1586]

Love all the little hidden wonders

[@daynacameron1092]

I fully expected to see the Forrest fairies flitting around on the trail. Mystical magical Arkansas. Great job Jonathon on that rope climb. That would scare the crap out of me! And that Pad Thai...YUMMO

[@basecampbucayu]

great video!!! after our visit, your channel and others, we are sold on Arkansas!!! Keep up the great adventures and dee-lish camp food!

[@kimberlymelton1895]

I cannot believe that is in our home state. I am now on a mission to make my way to the eye of the needle

[@TranceDivine]

why go to costa Rica or jamaica when you can go straight to Arkansas for the most beautiful water falls..I am in awe of these shots you guys took

[@exploringnature6319]

Exploring other countries is not a bad idea. Maybe they can teach you something from that beautiful place!

[@exploringnature6319]

Theworld has gorgeous place to visit and to learn from it! Expand yourself and you’ll see that is not bad at all!!!!

[@TranceDivine]

@@exploringnature6319 Huh?? You dont know me like talking as if you know where I have travelled..I been to many places other than the US..I am giving these guys a compliment that Arkansas is a beautiful place..obviously you dont think so..please dont tell me to expand myself, when you know nothing about me..these are silly comments you are posting to a stranger

[@hanginwithjeanna6717]

Just WOW!! Loved your video! I couldn't do a hike like that but loved that you all take us along so we can see! AND your cooking ......I love your cooking!!!

[@dorabeltran5086]

[@melaniemckay2270]

Thank y’all so much for taking us along!

[@paulblackburn4245]

What an awesome very cool scenic hike

[@thejudge61]

The whippoorwill was giving it heck when Kellie was cooking

[@ursinidaho]

Yes! What a gorgeous hike you three went on. I'm not that brave. Some of those drops were so far! Thanks for showing us this hike! Was thinking I hadn't seen a stir fry, that's what I thought until I saw the egg. That was my clue to Pad Thai. It's always nice to see Jonathan!

[@wolfbisbing486]

Jonathan is right. That place looks magical. Awesome hike. Great video y’all. I’m glad Kellie went on this one lol. Thank you for bringing me along.

[@hydro6917]

I was nervous for you guys but look at Kelly going after it yea girl

[@jimbattista1120]

I am actually listening to this vlog at work. I will watch it later. That's how good you two are. You guys put out top notch videos (~);}!! I see you are also on Rumble. I try to hit your vlogs over there too. If you ever make it to the Adirondack Park in Upstate NY, dinner is on me. Again. The Dome Life ROCKS!!!

[@henrikm4657]

That was an amazing hike! Looked like a rainforest in south America or something like that! Wicked cool.

[@adeladahdah4418]

I love it!

[@tacowheeler2200]

That noodle dish looked really awesome!! Gotta try it.

[@deniseolmstead6415]

This campsite and that hike is AMAZING! We live in a beautiful area here in northern California but Arkansas is on my bucket list now. Having said that the cliff walking is a no go for me. LOL I would be paralyzed in fear of falling off of it. I could do the ropes, but that cliff with no ropes, no way. You guys are braver than me! ;) Gorgeous area!

[@stephanienewton6618]

That was awesome!!

[@jas77450]

Nice hike. Beautiful.

[@ouradventures3794]

We did eye of the needle a couple weeks ago. It is quite dangerous. Super fun and extremely rewarding though! We came out in the dark in the rain! I do not recommend doing this on a rainy day. Y'all captured it quite well great job guys!!

[@laurenlucas4923]

This channel is all I watch now 😂 just planned our first tent camping trip to letchworth state park! Got our tent yesterday and I cannot wait!

[@greygooseadventures5212]

Watch vancity vanlife too. A guy from British Columbia that also does a great job. But you can tell that Kelli and Cody are special!!!

[@veldasellers4021]

Enjoy!

[@lrparrish227]

Stunning video!!

[@78twood]

So the first video I found y’all on the one where your stuff got stolen. I’m going back to the beginning of the vlogs to catch up. This is absolutely a stunningly beautiful place to visit! I knew nothing about Arkansas until now! Thanks for sharing 💜🥰

[@jessys9868]

Wow! Amazing photography!

[@anniesacres7835]

Awesome video!

[@daynachanley1115]

This was epic!!! Thanks!

[@fancishmanci]

Holy smokes what a hike! Thanks for letting me tag along 😊. Great video!

[@lachlanm3439]

This is almost Indiana Jones...courageous Adventurer, faithful, intelligent Pretty Girl and trustworthy, bail-you-out Sidekick (yes he's a rookie but he'll be there in the clutch)..only missing the music, psychotic apes and the Golden whatever. Superb. Arkansas! I never knew.

[@billmccabe6188]

That really is a super gorgeous hiwell best prettiest I've ever seen

[@sooner_born2256]

Fantastic trail! Good job with that video too.

[@bonnieruggieri7340]

Kellie your meals are outstanding! This hike was one of the best!

[@donnawarren4210]

Love the video and virtual hike.

[@OneEyeHikes]

Great hike for sure! I usually hike out and take the horse trail back to Kyle’s. Granted climbing out of the needle can be a challenge. Great video!!!

[@josebegui]

WOW WOW WOW - Cody was right - Arkansas has hikes to rival Arizona. First Dome Life vid my wife watches with me, maybe I can get her hooked!

[@jessicamalloy5223]

God dang! Kelly just made chicken pad Thai out camping 🏕 I am impressed and I love the cooking ideas 💡😍

[@19james60]

Another great vlog. A wonderful location and WOW the scenery was epic! Thanks for mentioning Jamie and the Garlic press, you made her day! Keep up the great work! Jonathan is the man! Him learning the rope climb was awesome. Good stuff!

[@christinebrigham4732]

Love how you put close ups of flowers

[@claramullen]

There are just not enough words for the beauty of that hike thank you so much for sharing the adventure.

[@tomf3713]

Well you guys are good. I think you’re the most amazing cook. My wife uses paprika chili powder garlic powder salt and pepper and a little chipotle seasoning instead of the taco seasoning it taste much better it did take me 40 years to talk her in to seasoning her own tacos.

[@CodyandKellie]

I’ll have to try that

[@TheWorldCruisers]

We'd love to explore this when we go home to my husband's hometown. Thank you guys for sharing.

[@gregorycurry1827]

one of your best vlogs! thank you, now i've got another hiking destination to add to my list. and the food..... y'all do camping right! keep on doing it!

[@LittleHouseofBeans]

Just realized i was subbed from my other account…anyhoo…this is perhaps one of your best visually speaking. Love how Cody gets so excited when something is ‘cool’. Great content as always!

[@kimlittleton4943]

I love whipporwhills. Plus your dish looked amazing.

[@TwoFeatherChannel]

Yep, I hear the Whip-poor-wills every day they hang out around my house along with hundreds of other birds.
