EASY RIDER Filming Location CAMP SITE Wupatki/LOMAKI

[@rickdaystar477]

Your video is awesome. I can give a unique perspective to the area. My first time across New Mexico and Arizona was 1969. Back then many mom and pop diners were open and almost no commercial fast food chains. Roadhouses and hand painted billboards littered the roadsides. Old Route 66 was accessible in some areas near the interstate as side roads. It was not unusual to see a truck and a blanket set out with native Americans displaying handmade turqouise and silver jewelry on the side of the road... I distinctly remember at one old gas station that had a milk crate full of turqouise pieces for sale $2.00 apiece! I've been through many times over the years and saw the transformation into commercialism. But the natural beauty remains and the sunsets over the desert still takes your breath away..THANK YOU for this video.

[@nicknickerson1912]

Thank you for your efforts to bring this video to me and the world. I saw that movie at 8 years old and grown up riding choppers. Built 2 of my own. Thanks again , Nick.

[@marshallperrigo849]

Opening scene was filmed in balleratt ca , in death valley, very near barker ranch

[@exohauler]

Fort Courage is where they filmed F Troop. At least that's what my Dad told me in the 80's as we were cruising in the 65 Buick Special Station wagon. Good Times! THanks for sharing JOrdan!

[@nancymundell6048]

Jordan, enjoyed the post, the Navajo Indian Reservation is located near Gallop, New Mexico. I have visited it. That is a bessutiful part of the USA. Enjoyed the Easy Rider connection, even though I have never seen the movie, maybe I should watch it. Again, thank you, I do not leave our home very much now. I can see things thru you Jordan! Until next time...Nancy

[@johndavis3921]

Fort Courage was set up/built to take advantage of the popularity of the television show F-Troop. The fort in F-Troop was called Fort Courage. KZbin has quite a few videos covering that particular tourist attraction.

[@wendymcfadyen-allerby6142]

Wupatki is such a fascinating historical place to visit seeing what would have been a hive of activity in the day, your telling Wupatiki's story. Easy Rider was a fav movie of my late hubby, one of the classics. Thank you Jordan, much appreciated.

[@nona12490]

Thank you Jordan, for taking us with you. America's history is so interesting and I love it..bye..

[@bernardofitzpatrick5403]

Great wide open spaces and big skies ! Kinda road trip that rocks! Great vid!

[@dawncantagallo9477]

Thank you for taking me to all these really cool places. You are my favorite traveling companian !

[@dawnemery9059]

I loved it when visited there a few years ago

[@janadeubner9883]

Yes I am enjoying this road trip. You take us to such amazing places! Love the history. I also love to go back and watch the movies and tell myself oh Jordan showed that place to us!

[@badapple65]

Nice to see no graffiti on that place. I have hope for humanity after all. Your life is an adventure. I hope that you get to enjoy it. After all it’s got to be more work than a full time job. I enjoy every episode I see.

[@jeffkidd7409]

WOW very cool ruins. I have never seen Easy Rider all the way through. I will try to find it. The native American stuff is so cool. I have never been West of Kansas, so seeing all this for the first time. Thanks Jordan! Another highly successful "travel vlog"

[@kstewskis]

I ❤️ my Desert Southwest! Thank you for showcasing a few of the jewels for us, Jordan!

[@williamsherman1089]

Me too. I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest but have lived in Arizona for 25 years now and I can't imagine why I would ever wanna be anywhere else.

[@amorosa101457]

America is very beautiful! Love these old historic sites. I’ll never forget seeing mud huts when we traveled the south west. Beautiful colors. Thanks for taking us along Jordan! 🦁❤️

[@sunshineharper4845]

I'm really enjoying your southwest tour.

[@outsider238]

I love that you found the exact spot! Thank you for showing the screen shots to match it up as well!

[@davidellis5141]

Back in the day when Alberquerque Dukes were Dodgers Triple A team , did this drive. Needles, CA Flagstaff , ARI & Gallop , NM were stopping points. You captured nature & the landmarks beautifully. Gave me some nice memories ! Thanks .

[@mariaday712]

More great views. I love that you brought us out here to see what some of us would never have been able to see. I loved Easy Rider and I'm glad you found one of the places they shot the movie at. I love all the colors and the different types of stones and things that are out here. Thanks for bringing us out here. Safe Travels and Take Care.

[@VINTERIUM..EXPLORIUM.1]

👍👍

[@RobertCochrane-tj6kn]

I'm suprised as young as you are you'd have an interest in finding a movie location like this, this old biker thanks you.

[@deirdrerosesharples7453]

Love it, just sent on to my sister's, my mum, she loved it and brother's in law Easy Rider excellent 😁 but very like landscape Pompeii there 2007...my sister brother in-law married famous church Positano where Only You filmed and again my honeymoon 2014 Sorrento so beautiful Capri boat trip saw Roger Moore's house and Sophia Lorens house, she still lives there👌

[@jennfritzke4778]

Thank you for finding the camping spot. I love Easy Rider! Another awesome vlog! Thank you!

[@carenclarke6896]

A really wonderful vlog. I learn a lot from you. Michael is nine years older than me and remembers the movie well and says it's a classic. I loved seeing the Native site a civilization that is still palpable. I could feel what the energy must have been there...very powerful.

[@renman16291]

This was effen awesome. Wifey & I went to Radio City last night and saw the 50th Anniversary Easy Rider Screening with a live soundtrack. It was Peter's last project. What a great night! It was so overwhelming. Of course we thought of you during the "Porky Pig" or "Show some respect" scene. 💓👍☑🎸😎

[@leannefabro3289]

Easy Rider was a classic movie.

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan, what absolutely STUNNING SCENERY AGAIN!! I could just watch a vlog of you driving out there. Wupatki was just amazing and so peaceful. A really chilled out vlog, and I loved it. Great vlog Jordan.

[@dawnbenchley7237]

Been to Arizona. Would love to go again.

[@mamiebobb4173]

That's some great prospecting Jordan! I just put that screen shot next to the video shot and you can match up each stone shape and placement (at least for the light colored stones). There's no question that this is the site. Bravo!

[@annebell7274]

That was AWESOME !!!!!!! The size of those enormous rocks and bolders OMG. You take me to places I'd otherwise never see. You are a "STAR" AMAZING. Thank you so much 🌺💖🌺

[@daveweiss3839]

You found a real Jewel of the American south west. Mahalo for your hard work

[@chrishutchinson2297]

It's been a long time since I saw Easy Rider so I don't remember a lot of the scenes. But that was one amazing a location. It does definitely deserve respect and preservation. And you know Jordan you are part of that preservation.

[@undergroundjohnny]

Excellent Jordan! So wonderful to see the original Easy Rider "UFO Beaming Back At You" scene. Your Vlog is just 3 days after Peter Fonda passed. Thank you so very much for all that you do man!

[@average_joe9481]

Awesome video, I wish I was able to go to that spot and have my picture taken there, Thanks for uploading this and R.I.P Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper.

[@unionrdr]

I love locations like that. Way out in the boonies where it's quiet and peaceful. Where grass grow, wind blow, & the sky is blue! My G-G-G-Grandpa was an apache chief.

[@jeffgarmon1]

Did you ever see the movie... Little Big Man? Those words you just mentioned are in the movie... something like... "the treaty will last as long as the grass grows, the wind blows, and the sky is blue". If you've never seen it, you gotta watch it. Dustin Hoffman, Faye Dunaway, Chief Dan George... and others.. are in it.

[@unionrdr]

@@jeffgarmon1 yeah I did. I also have the novel. But later, he also says" but sometimes, grass don't grow, wind don't blow and the sky ain't blue."

[@jeffgarmon1]

@@unionrdr yep. the saddest part of the movie when the soldiers massacre the indian village.

[@yolandadelazerda207]

[@ElvisPresleyWorldwide]

So awesome, J! One of a kind VLOG. BTW, I believe Fort Courage was built as a tourist destination as a result of the popularity of the TV Series F-Troop.

[@johnhaughey8346]

I was there a few years ago. It was tough to find, but knew it was the spot when I got there.

The Wokoki Pueblo across the street is where I believe the scene where Fonda was climbing on the monument. was flimed....just a guess ......Many scenes in the Movie were filmed on the loop through Wuptaki and on Hwy 89 on the way to Page.....Also Monument Valley and Las Vegas New Mexico...Near Hoppers grave is the Taos Pueblo that is also in the Movie...

[@Sarah-bell]

Some Great scenery you have shown us this week, I've enjoyed your travels. I've always found native American culture and beliefs so interesting, that ball game and loop position like those in Mexicos ancient settlements

[@lisapitts2011]

Would you consider going to Cherokee NorthCarolina to see the "Trail Of Tears"?.. and to see how the Cherokee lived. Im part Native American/ Cherokee .. =) this was a very interesting video you filmed as always wish i could tag along on some of those looks so much fun & adventerous i like to wander around and look at those types of things and the road side attractions you film =) How's Jah, your sweet face doggy =) "What type of native American/ indians lived there?..

Jordan correct me if I'm wrong but I think what you were looking at was from the old TV series , not if you heard of it from the 60's I believe F-Troop comedy tv show !

[@jakemosca6587]

does anyone know where the actual spot where they climbed up on the wall is?

[@dburch7894]

Would be kinda creepy out there by yourself, aren’t you glad we were all with you! Epic filming spot from Easy Rider! Thanks.

12 miles west of Flagstaff, in Bellemont, is the gas station/motel where they tried to get a room. It's still there!

Wow Jordan you did it again!! You managed to film something that I've been curious about that was iconic to me. The land has such a mysterious appeal to me all the way up to the grand canyon but I never knew exactly where past Flagstaff they would have filmed that scene. That movie greatly affected me as a young man with motorcycles. I'm really surprised you found this. Thanks
