First Time Visiting Idyllwild? MUST Watch Before You Go

[@Mine-Finder]

I left California for soooo many reasons, but I'll always miss the mountains and the weather there. Terrific video, Idyllwild is a beautiful place.

[@BeautyisWiild]

really appreciate the kind words! thank you and glad you enjoyed the video!

[@JonFox1945]

Where did you move to? I want to do Wyoming or Idaho near Yellowstone

[@Mine-Finder]

@@JonFox1945 I moved to a very conservative city in Colorado, Wyoming and Idaho are both sparsely populated but a lot of Californians are moving to Idaho.

[@JonFox1945]

@@Mine-Finder I always wanted to move to Colorado but I hear a lot of Californians have already raised the living cost and votes liberal on everything. Any specific places you recommend as someone who wants to avoid high crime liberal places

[@Mine-Finder]

@@JonFox1945 Colorado is not cheap, but way cheaper than California. The cost of living in Idaho has gone way up too, One advantage of Colorado is that the property taxes are extremely low. Colorado Springs is the second biggest city and very conservative. In Idaho, Meridian, near Boise and Coeur d'alene up north are both nice cities. Wyoming is a beautiful state but you'll be living is a very small and isolated town unless you move to Cheyenne

thanks for including the road clips! we are planning trip there & will be towing a small trailer, we are always curious about that whenever we will be climbing in elevation! nice video

[@BeautyisWiild]

I find them useful! glad you did too. Have fun!

You get your permit for Devil's Slide Trail at the Ranger Station on Upper Pine Crest. Also try the Nature Trail at the Nature Center. It goes from the Nature Center to the County Park. If you like Mexican food I recommend La Casitas on North Circle. And the Higher Grounds coffee shop has awesome hot cocoa. Also if you like camping by yourself outside a campground, you can get an adventure pass and go to some beautiful yellow post sites on Black Mountain and many other beautiful spots marked with a yellow post...they have maps available at the Ranger Station with all the yellow post sites on the mountain. Have fun.

[@BeautyisWiild]

awesome, thank you so much for the additional information!

I left cloudy Malibu for sun in Palm Springs today. I ended up going through Idyllwild on the way back. It was 50 degrees and rainy but it was beautiful! I searched for a KZbin and this came up. Your camera shots were amazing. I plan on going back in a few weeks to see more. Thanks for posting. You dog is very cute by the way.

[@BeautyisWiild]

really glad to hear you enjoyed the video! I always like to showcase how beautiful these mountain towns are - thank you! and have a great trip back

[@jerryconner4270]

I miss southern California, silent valley and mt. San Jacinto. Thanks for the 📹 video. You are so blessed to be able to hike and enjoy that beauty.

[@BeautyisWiild]

definitely very blessed to be near the ocean and so many beautiful mountains. thanks for the comment!

[@rudymedina4508]

Just went there yesterday. My first time. I just moved to hemet, it takes me 30 minutes to get there.

[@BeautyisWiild]

Nice! you are super close

[@mariodegante6237]

stayed there during the winter months and the view from that balcony was amazing!

[@BeautyisWiild]

awesome to hear! haha and thanks for checking out my video/channel

[@DavidMichaels-s9y]

you did REALLY good. I thought you did good, and ive lived and hiked up in idyllwild for twenty two years

[@BeautyisWiild]

I love where you live :) and thank you. I really appreciate your comment

[@livingcolorado66]

"3 different agencies" That's California in a nutshell! Thanks for the video. The mountain communities are the ONLY thing I miss from California. AZ is such a better life. All the best to ya!

[@BeautyisWiild]

Mountain communities / wilderness are my favorite part of California as well. Cheers!

[@nitro80west]

I’ve been wanting to visit this place and this will help me a lot! Thanks for sharing

[@BeautyisWiild]

love to hear! enjoy :)

[@caden5936]

Going here today! Can’t wait to revisit this beautiful spot ☺️

[@BeautyisWiild]

enjoy! :)

@@BeautyisWiild Thanks! Drinking coffee and eating breakfast in our cabin right now, so excited to go on some hikes!

[@TravelHungryForLife]

Awesome video and channel here thanks for sharing See you again be safe all the best have a great weekend 👍

[@BeautyisWiild]

thanks, glad you like :)

[@traceytrotter9934]

If you ever go again you have to check out the Chocolatier. Best homemade chocolates and shakes ever. Thanks for the video! Heading up to see a friend for the holidays.

[@BeautyisWiild]

heading up here soon and definitely adding it to my list! thank you and safe travels :)

[@jonboatwright7777]

Be ready for the daytrippers trying to see how fast they can make it up the mountain. They’ll either tailgate you or pass you no matter how fast you’re going. Just pull over and let ‘em pass. There’s a ceremonial cacao place up there I just discovered . 💪

[@Sabrina-rr8sh]

Three seperate agencies all sharing the same jurisdiction is a Riverside County thing. Animal Control is the same way, it confuses residents. Theirs two entities that provide animal servies and registration and the jurisdiction gets tricky to sort out. Beautiful video! Very informative!

[@BeautyisWiild]

Really appreciate the comment! Glad I was able to provide some clarity and thank you for the additional information :)

[@JohnSmith-kd6ip]

I was on that same trail (Ernie Maxwell). Then I had to walk it all they way back to get the car and pick up wife and daughter that waited at the bottom of the trail...

[@BeautyisWiild]

hahaha, they are lucky to have you!!! that was nice of you

[@AustinRockyRode]

thanks for the tips brotha !

[@BeautyisWiild]

glad you enjoyed the video man!

[@broinsocali]

On my summer place to visit. Day trip.

[@BeautyisWiild]

Absolutely and enjoy!

[@emmaayala7453]

Higher grounds coffee changed fo pure bean coffee and no longer that good anymore. Alpaca coffee has been the winner in coffee shops (mama’s egg house does win) alpaca has quality coffee and black mountain coffee roasters. Next time whenever you come back up! (I live in idyllwild lol)

[@BeautyisWiild]

Really appreciate it! I’m heading up soon and will definitely check out alpaca coffee! Thanks for the recommendation:)

[@totaltreeservice4870]

that's awesome I live up here and is great to iss it in KZbin

[@BeautyisWiild]

Really glad you think so. You live in an amazing area!

[@totaltreeservice4870]

@@BeautyisWiild thank you guys for putting out in the map for us , hope tou guys come back around sometime soon , idyllwild welcomes you

[@brad1038]

There is something about Idy air - it makes you sleepy 😅😂

[@BeautyisWiild]

😆

[@StockSpotlightPodcast]

Have you not heard about all the disappearances there 👀

[@BeautyisWiild]

Not something I generally worry about : )

[@Therealgilmoregurl]

I live here, those are all easily explained. Stop believing everything you see on the internet

[@ForlornFreddy]

Beautiful shots. Hard to believe you need a permit to go hiking.

[@BeautyisWiild]

It is primarily for safety reasons but I agree with you. Weird that you can't just show up and go

[@Therealgilmoregurl]

They are all pretty much free, or very low cost. The permit is for your safety in case you go missing. Last weekend I was hiking Deer Springs Trail up there and we got an alert that a wildfire was quickly approaching us. The Rangers knew where would be and had our phone number and called us to let us know to head back.

[@MARC1-q1y]

I'm looking for somewhere in California where I can take my girl my baby and my dog and just sit around a campfire and smoke a fine cigar with a little bit of rum without having to pay for what God already gave us humans for free...fuck...is there such a place or is everything state owned??

[@BeautyisWiild]

You are looking for BLM land. Completely free

[@Kaybee0606]

Mom carrying baby while dad just films…..

[@BeautyisWiild]

LOL 😂. I've been debating about what to write to you but I'll just leave it at this - we switch off, but she generally takes him when I'm filming something. Crazy concept right?!

[@HenrySd]

Stfu and let him film.

[@indigenabarbondeguanajuato6972]

Nothing wrong with that, that’s her son right..??😅

[@KikiNation1]

It's kind of ridiculous so you need all these permits to go see mother nature. Craziness.

[@BeautyisWiild]

haha agreed. some of it is so that if people go missing the rangers can track which trail people took but I totally get the frustration

[@kenpofernie6853]

I wanna move here patriots and vets control this town

[@BeautyisWiild]

Their mayor is a dog... not sure where you are buying into the political affiliation game but... given the LGBTQ flags up in town and the few people I know who live there, that does not seem to be the case. Enjoy
