I Came as Soon as I Heard the News! Seven Tubs 2024 Updates

[@JPVideos81]

It was such a great feeling to be back here. Feel free to answer my question that I ask later in the video.

[@mgratk]

29:26 little fish hiding from the current by a bigger rock, near bottom of screen. Great video JP.

[@Ratgirl2]

Hi JP are there signs posted slide and swim on your risk?

[@Spencer02]

That is a beautiful place JP, they did a very nice job fixing it up. The underwater footage was amazing, i love how the sun light reflects off the water, giving the underwater a shimmering effect. I laughed when you said " they come here with loud music, even if you don't want to hear it." 🤣🤣 and Hellooooo to shadow JP, always great to see him come along for the explanation. 👍👍👍👍 very nice video JP, thank you for taking me on this great explanation 👍

[@JPVideos81]

👋😊

[@StewartHall-jj7wt]

Thanks, JP for making the effort to show us the under-water shots that cost you your numb feet. It really is appreciated.

[@sonplusone7059]

Rub a dub dub, 1 man at 7 tubs. I will definitely be going there this Summer. Thanks for taking us on a hike. Great job! 🤗

[@JPVideos81]

What a poet.... haha. If you guys have never been here, you'll really enjoy it.

[@patriciasentz4950]

Boy, this place brings back memories. Isn't this where you fell when you were out with your friends? Thanks for bringing me back, it's such a gorgeous place.

[@JPVideos81]

Yep, took a bad fall, but kept going 😁

[@DavidFortman-et2jj]

Great video JP! Such a beautiful park. I hope it is kept looking so nice with the help of the people who enjoy it. There's an old saying in public parks, "Leave only footprints and take only photos." I think that applies here. My favorite is the first waterfall off the bridge. So beautiful. Downstream off the bridge is my second favorite. The hollow that water made over many years. As always, thanks for taking me along on your adventure! ❤ I really do appreciate it!

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure

[@dianthis]

Love the culvert and the underwater shots! I looked up that camera in the description. Not a bad price at all. Thank you for taking us along! 😊 Yes! Go back to do some snorkeling. 🤿

[@JPVideos81]

I think a summer snorkeling session will be added to the list.

[@LarrysViews]

Great video JP. I know I would of done that pool with my detector too👍

[@patsysaco6155]

J P, my husband and I absolutely love your videos. You take us places we will never be able to visit. Your photography is fantastic. You have shown some stills that I would definitely love to purchase from you. They are so good!! Keep exploring, and we'll keep traveling with you. We are senior people, residing in NW Ohio.

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks for coming along on my video adventures!

[@lovesmashbox]

The park is absolutely beautiful. Love the waterfalls. Yes come back...🥶💙

[@jaclyn.b]

I love going for hikes at the seven tubs. Beautiful area.

[@SR-zi6eo]

Hi JP! Good to be back there, and yes, it does look great. My favorite was of course the culvert, but the waterfalls were beautiful also. Perhaps some culvert exploration will occur this summer 😉 Thanks for taking us along; always appreciated……🌝

[@dianacanales2526]

Absolutely gorgeous area!! And even a Toy! @ 11:21 with the lighter & love beads, I see a little Gnome figure in the upper right corner that I think qualifies as a toy.😃 Love the waterfalls, and really love the views up and downstream from the pedestrian bridge. The sound of all that rushing water is so amazing, like I'm really there. Beautiful arch on that culvert! Stunning photo montage, Jay! Maybe consider doing a calendar? I'd buy it!💙Thanks for bringing us along!!💙PS. - Was that Bigfoot @ 34:42?

[@gaylebrodt676]

I can just see how excited you are that this is open again. It's such a beautiful place and always looks like so much fun! The water looks really clear and refreshing, but just a tad chilly. Oh no, "why did it have to be a snake" lol and that was an awesome leap you took over to the rock and then you had to leap back, you did great! Your poor feet, thank you for braving that, the underwater footage is always amazing. I am not sure what my favorite part is, it's all fantastic! Excellent photos, I just love nature's carpet. Definitely would be awesome to see you return and do some snorkeling there again! Wonderful video JP, thank you! 💙

[@JPVideos81]

A tad chilly is an understatement lol. Glad you enjoyed the 2024 look.

[@allenpedrick6502]

Wow!!!! Such a beautiful place. Thanks for the trip on the trails and the waterfalls and tubs.

[@robertmanley7556]

It is absolutely beautiful here !!! That was such a cool old culvert !! I loved all the under water footage !!! Great video as alway's !!! 👍👍

[@CJWilkins-dt6xr]

This is a beautiful park and I enjoyed taking the hike with you. I love how you make your viewers feel so included, as if we're really there. The sounds of the rushing water and the view from the bridge were my favorite parts. Your footage with the underwater camera were so clear! (Hope your feet feel better and so glad you didn't fall in the cold water jumping between rocks. I would think anyone swimming there would have to wear shoes. There were so many rocks!) You have terrific editing skills and I always enjoy your music choices and the photo montages at the end of your videos. Watching JP Videos is the highlight of my week! Thank you. You are appreciated!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much for the kind words!

[@stevekaschak9442]

Thanks for the update! I was going there quite often, for it was a great place to photograph fungi, and one of the very few spots where I am able to find Violet Cort mushrooms. I became appalled by the damage people have done the the area, when they closed it down for repairs I was hoping they would have closed it for a minimum of 5 years so the land could heal. Hopefully, visitors will wise up and stop the littering and trampling of the flora!

[@JPVideos81]

It was recently announced that they will be limiting the amount of visitors based on availability or parking spots.

[@sheilan6235]

This place is beautiful and yes, go back in the summer!

[@margiecooper6045]

Fun one JP. Lovely scenery. Thanks for taking me along. ❤

[@matthewschleicher9419]

It’s sad how people make beautiful things go away I love going to places and enjoyed the beauty of the place thanks for sharing JP

[@JPVideos81]

Maybe one day those people will come to appreciate what we have and help care for it.

[@jacobpoucher]

Welcome to the world we live in it will get worse before it gets better

[@user-vh2ne4il3x]

When I was in Baxter State Park,the slide in the water was smooth all the way down

[@Zekebaby]

That road there is the original Bear Creek Blvd. that used to go down all the way towards where Longhorn Steakhouse is and past “Bluebottom” as the locals called it, also called “Colebrook Dam” that was removed.

[@trishwise8269]

What a beautiful place! The underwater views were incredible as well! Thanks for going out of your way to bring us this video. Appreciate you!😊

[@JPVideos81]

😊

[@jackgill2501]

Thank you very much, really enjoyed! Have a great day….

[@bethintexas9678]

What a beautiful area! As always, thank you for bringing us along.

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure

[@stevenkaskus6173]

Looks like a really special place and thank you for showing us this. Stay safe.😊

[@josephmcdevitt]

I am so excited that it’s finally open again!!!

[@LilyWhisperwind]

Loved the sound of the water, the scenery. Thank you for braving the cold water to show us. I loved the reflections on the rocks.

[@JPVideos81]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@donnasilver940]

Wow ! Beautiful.Lots of nice water.I love water.

[@VickyGeib-cg5tf]

Hi jp that nice to see ❤😊

[@musclecarmitch908]

Beautiful place! Looks like alot of great improvements! Thanks for bringing us along JP!👍

[@EeRocKK]

A beautiful spot!

[@junie1955]

Awesome explore never been there ill have to check it out stay safe and thanks for adventure.

[@MEL2theJ]

Great spot! 👍 Thank you for sharing JPVideos 🩵

[@darlenegood4101]

👋👋Appreciate the sacrifices you make for your wonderful fan...like me You know you can't stay away. See you with your snorkeling mask this summer.

[@JPVideos81]

😁

[@glennjudd2467]

Looks beautiful !

[@Jared-91]

Such a relaxing video. Beautiful place

[@joangravel2436]

Thanks that was awesome place very beautiful I enjoyed watching and yes please do go back this summer

[@JPVideos81]

👍🏽😊

[@barbara-pigeonbray4579]

Really enjoyed taking this hike with you ,,,just gorgeous ! I loved it all ....could almost feel the freshness of your surroundings . So glad to see the lady walking up as you finished your outro ..because around 34:38 there is a "bear" on the trail above and behind you... really shocked me LOL......coming back to snorkle and film in the summer sounds like another fun adventure ! 👍💙

[@JPVideos81]

Haha, I noticed that as well in editing. Hopefully the water will be much more tolerable when I return.

[@williamwatson4625]

I saw a little fish swimming in that pool. Just 1 fish. Don't know what kind it is, but it looked like a big-sized guppy.

[@gigicostlow4414]

Wow, it's beautiful and the improvements are awesome. We're waiting.....rofl! Loved the shots of the water running over the rocks. Very peaceful. You really didn't have to brave that freezing cold water but thank you. Water snakes are harmless. You do have to watch for copperheads and probably rattlesnakes there but as long as you stay on the trails and watch where you are stepping you'll be fine. About how far is this from Jim Thorpe? Gonna share this with my son. Him and my grandson would probably love it. Yes! Go back this summer for some summer time fun. Looking forward to it.

[@JPVideos81]

This isn't terribly far from Jim Thorpe. You actually pass this place on 115 on the way to JT.

[@garymessina1609]

Awesome video thanks Jay

[@PoconoJoe]

thanks for the heads up JP! I live like 5 minutes away and had no idea they closed for maintenance lol. ps. 34:40 theses a bigfoot behind you, jsayin ;)

[@JPVideos81]

Just a friendly hiker in the shadows 😁

[@PoconoJoe]

@@JPVideos81 yeah lol, i saw her pop out at the end:) Have a great spring season pal!

[@kenamosjr.bo_51]

Good to see it’s open again, and unfortunately trash issue is just cause people are lazy and wont clean up behind themselves. Beautiful place and takes a lot to get people to clean up behind themselves. It’s main reason why places like this started charging. Thanks for video.

[@JPVideos81]

I agree, lazy is part of the problem.

[@johnnyringo3171]

I imagine it is awesome in the winter as well when covered with snow and ice

[@JPVideos81]

Yes! Ice been there once in the winter time.

[@juliahoyt3162]

I just tuned in your video from five years ago and that bridge was freshly repainted .

[@1954shadow]

This place is a gem!

[@George7Baldwin]

Maybe, add memberships to AT or other trails. PATC and LNT Leave No Trace Club members. Park fees should include memberships from responsible clubs. Inclusive to new members of the public often not informed to Nature Conservacy advocates.

[@bestestname6757]

They started charging $10 per car to out of towers at our favorite water spot in Monroe County. It's helped so much with the trash. It's ALWAYS THE PEOPLE FROM OUT OF TOWN. It really was getting out of control.

[@markchilson]

the newly paved road and the road chained off was the old route 115 leading into Wilkes-Barre. Yes is does go past the reservoir. Next time you are there take a walk down. Alot of old bridges to see.

[@robertbrown3676]

The area that if people are leaving trash behind the park and making contact with the people in the area and just let him know don't forget you packed it in you need to pack it out and put signs around like they used to do. If there's a boombox issue also have sign saying=respect others.

[@EdKrisiak]

I just drove by there yesterday!!! Google said it was closed.. Thanks for the video!!!

[@JPVideos81]

Unofficially open I guess. Go check it out!

[@EdKrisiak]

@@JPVideos81 Thanks!!! Was glad to see all of the improvements. Last time I was there,I saw a LOT of graffiti. I lived in Easton and buses from NY were coming to Penn Pump Park. They had to close the park on weekends due to over crowing-loud music and litter. Hopefully this does not happen to 7 tubs:) Thanks for the video!!!

[@marydeemock101]

Great video to show us this beautiful location! "Saving the best til last", is that on the yellow trail?

[@JPVideos81]

The last pool area is not on the yellow trail. If you reach the rock slide area where those teenagers were, just follow the stream up about 100ft.

[@tuckersdoghouse2018]

Great video ty for sharing, I just don't understand how you were able to video such a great place when the site still says temporarily closed?

[@JPVideos81]

Must be unofficially open. Someone told me it was packed today.

[@thomas-i5o7h]

Do you have plans for a return visit to Jim Thorpe any time ?

[@meganpetroff5537]

You know, I live only right down the road from Wilkes Barre (only about 40 minutes or so) and I’ve never been here. I’ll have to make the short trip.

[@JPVideos81]

I recommend going on a weekday

[@meganpetroff5537]

@@JPVideos81 thanks for the advice.

[@hollymaren]

Nice, but where is it? Seven Tubs just doesn't tell me much.

[@JPVideos81]

I mentioned Luzerne county just outside Wilkes barre Pennsylvania.

[@stevenkaskus6173]

I never understand why people go to places like this and then trash it and play loud music, should go to this place and others for the unique beauty and scenery and enjoy nature, you want to play loud music and leave trash do that in your own yard.

[@sandyseibelhager7131]

Someone has to maintain those bathrooms. It doesn’t seem too much to ask someone to empty some trash cans as well

[@michaelbowser6213]

Not sure how paving the parking lot is going to help with hoards of people. Admission fees would probably be in order.

[@donnasilver940]

Yeah snorkel

[@oxygon2850]

I think I saw Bigfoot!

[@jacobpoucher]

But you havent been for 5 years you had plenty of time to go?

[@stevenkaskus6173]

Please please it's just Wilkes Barre not barry pronounce it like Bear. MY dad's family is from their since before the 1900's no one from there pronounces it like Barry.

[@JPVideos81]

It's how I've pronounced it my entire life. I've heard it pronounced both ways. Just like carmel, caribbean, etc.
