Hello friends! I was going to release this in the morning (Sunday) but wasn't able to get this week's commentary exported in time to release tonight, so, here is the Adventure video. Tomorrow morning you can enjoy the commentary. This week it will be on Authenticity and Living Your Truth. Enjoy.

How mesmerizing, the sand sliding down the dunes and blowing in the breeze. Magical.

[@4XPEDITION]

It's interesting to see how the sand moves about.

[@donwarner6925]

Reminds me of my time at White Sands. I’m long overdue for another visit. I’m sure my daughter love it. Thanks for the amazing content. Hopefully 23 brings more of the same!

[@4XPEDITION]

Our pleasure! And, we hope so too!

[@ashley0423399993]

Would love to do a long road trip in the US one day. Did Quebec-Vermont in autumn many years ago, absolutely breathtaking, loved it tremendously. Safe travels, Scott and Heather

[@4XPEDITION]

You should for sure. There is much to see and do.

[@ElGancho08]

Man great timing I’ll be there this coming week

[@4XPEDITION]

Enjoy!

[@jameshouse1268]

Thank you both for sharing such a great stop! It is so inviting and serene with the Fall colors, Zapata Creek and the dunes. I am always amazed with the footage you produce with only iPhones! My daughter and I just returned from an extended weekend up north enjoying the colors and solitude around Flagstaff. We booked the Lupine yurt at Nordic village and had a fabulous time! We hiked to the summit of Kendrick Peak and enjoyed amazing views! Take care always 😊

[@4XPEDITION]

Love the Lupine and all of the yurts there. I bet it was beautiful. Thanks for sharing, James.

Those falls are so neat!!! We looked at some properties in this area. We went up to the campground but there were so many mosquitos we couldn't even get out of the car. That road still bumpy? That road was something else!!! We camped in the campground right before you go into the dunes. I never got out and walked on the dunes, too exhausted from house hunting. I guess if I ever go back i need to take some boots to see that falls.

[@4XPEDITION]

Yes! The hike is very short and very little elevation gain. The roads are ALL paved now. In fact, some of the roads are freshly paved. The road up to the falls campground is paved. It's out there. Heather and I were wondering what would prompt someone to live out that far. The San Luis Valley is vast. I know some people who live in Crestone. We visited there to check it out. That town is remote, too.

[@cgrsworld]

Okay, after seeing this, definitely adding the Zapata Creek hike to my to-do list!!

[@4XPEDITION]

You should! And, if you have the energy, hike up to the lake above it!

[@thinde88]

I moved out that way about 2 years ago from Denver. Super under appreciated area. And CHEAP. I bought land and am off grid.

[@4XPEDITION]

Very nice, Travis. Thanks for sharing. So you are one of those houses we can see 'out there' off the highway... :-)

[@thinde88]

@@4XPEDITION Nooooo haha I’m tucked into La Veta pass. What you saw is the downside of zero building codes.

[@4XPEDITION]

​@@thinde88 Hmm... well, there are some benefits to zero building codes, too, I guess. We haven't been up to La Veta Pass yet.

[@richardbeee]

I can attest to being out of breath when climbing to the top of that. Safe travels!

[@Pack.Leader]

🤣 I actually tried CC to see WTH he was saying but it wasn't available. Too funny.

[@4XPEDITION]

My mouth was movin' but no words came out! :)

[@4XPEDITION]

Truth, Richard.

[@richardbeee]

@@4XPEDITION Been in that condition a few times in the past.

[@shoveI]

Those look like beautiful dunes - and tall!

[@4XPEDITION]

They are! Didn't make it to the top...

[@rocksolidadventures184]

Another amazing video! Really enjoyed it. I hope to get out there sometime. Right now, finances won't allow it, but maybe one day.

[@4XPEDITION]

Thanks for watching, RSA. Much appreciated. Understand about the finances. This one was close to home for me.

[@michaelyammine4245]

Zapata Falls is my favorite place out there. Next time take your shoes off and walk up the stream to the falls even further. Water shoes or keen type sandals are the best. You are near our property we own that is at 10,000 feet just to the south.

[@Pack.Leader]

Wow. I loved that falls. I can't imagine how wonderful that would be in the heat of the summer, although I'm sure the water is frigid year round.

[@gowest5145]

@@Pack.Leader In the summer there are mosquitos galore there, at least when we were there. We couldn't even get out of our vehicle, it was so bad and I really wanted to see the falls.

[@4XPEDITION]

Surprisingly special. We would have gone further back but it was COLD! ;-)

[@Pack.Leader]

@@gowest5145 Oh no ! That would ruin it. That's one of the things I love about living in the desert in NM. No mosquitoes so nights can truly be enjoyed. The sky was exquisite last night.
