Journey On The El Camino Del Diablo: Video 1

[@swankyginger5407]

Dude these videos you do are just some of the best stuff on youtube.

[@Onyxnewyork]

Mr. Chigg You're More Informal Then National Geographic. Best Video Ever. Thank You For Sharing.

[@nicolaigammel6685]

A year ago I follow your trip to Arizona in the desert, and fall totaly in love at you way of story telling. That trip was the BEST, and gave me so much knowledge about the Indians i didn't know about. So I'm looking so much forward, to see you out here on this adventure!!!. You are the best, NO one can beat you doing this.!!!. Best regards from Denmark👍🏼

[@CC-CODER]

A saguaro with many holes in it has been visited by the Gila Woodpecker. The bird will drill several holes to get to the water stored inside. The saguaro seals off the hole with scar tissue to prevent water loss.

[@Wvnursey]

I could watch you walk around the desert all day long! Arizona is one of my favorite places on earth!

[@chrisackerley1842]

Well-done! Best documentary video I've seen on the Camino. When I first went to Bates Well, in the mid-80's, one of the barns had a 1932 calendar with a picture of a pretty girl tacked to the wall. A friend who was with me was taken with her image, and he took a photo of it. We were all students at U of A back then. My friend kept the photo above his desk. A few years later, the woman he married was the "spttin' image" of the girl on the calendar. Keep up the good work, but be careful out there. Lots of smuggling going on and those people are ruthless.

[@OnTheRiver66]

I watched all of these and they are fantastic!

[@ErikjStudios]

I just came to read all of the hate filled comments about giving thirsty people water, or saving people lives... As Mark Twain once said - “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

[@Fragrantbeard]

Wish all the privileged assholes would realize their land of the free and home of the brave birthplace is just a happy little accident. Sigh.

[@94aph]

Love all the knowledge you share with us.

[@janvafa4253]

I remember seeing the Saguaro as a child when we were on a family trip ... I still have a photo my dad took with us by the cactus! You always seem to find things that tug at my heartstrings!

[@micahlamilton5442]

entertaining and imformative as usual keep up the great work chig!

[@donbates9610]

Chigg that was awesome. Thanks for explaining things too . I tell my kids im getting a history lesson every time they see me watching your videos. I love it

[@SueGirling68]

Wow that land is so unforgiving huh. Those cacti are really tall, the little ones looked pretty vicious with all those spines. Great video Chigg, thank you. x

[@rosikoenig7375]

The different styles of fences there are totally amazing!!

[@tangie777uk]

Wonderful video, can't wait for part 2. Thank you Chiggies

[@claytonsmith1063]

I do really miss the desert adventures I used to embark on... don't be without water... don't be without food... don't get near the Choya Cactus... watch for rattlesnakes... watch for scorpions... don't have open sores because a hungry mountain lion will eat you bones and all in one hour... don't make any natives angry... survival games are not fun for anyone out there... yet... I love it so much... serenity... the Lord God Almighty is even there often.

[@chrissalus9181]

Love every video you post keep the information coming thanks Chris Salus New Jersey

[@simonscott1121]

"promote their religion" - understatement of the year, thanks Chig :)

[@joeyshearer7948]

Just discovered your channel about a month ago and really enjoy your vids and the song at the end of the show. Thanks for taking us on your adventures.

[@LongRidgeFarmer]

Thank you sir for this video. I enjoy your trips West very much. It looks peaceful there.

[@mgfarmer1]

LOL! BROTHERS ARE ALWAYS GOOD GUYS SOME TIMES!! THAT'S THE WAY IT IS WITH MINE, LOVE THEM ALL ANYWAY. CATCHING UP WITH YOUR VLOGS. ENJOYING EVERY ONE OF THEM. GREAT HISTORY CLASS.

[@Coreyborealis406]

Dude your southwest adventure films are so interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@QuestForDetails]

I love your toad trips and I'm always hoping you'll get all the way out here. Very excited for next vid. Good luck!!

[@Dstew57A]

This is an awesome video journey. Thank you for sharing!

[@MrAussiedarren]

Looking forward very much to the 2nd installment of another great Chigga-mentry. Great viewing Chiggman 😉😉😉

[@sherryrector2275]

Glad you got a buddy traveling with you.

[@rosikoenig7375]

So love this.. these types of your videos are my favorites.. so excited to follow you on this adventure !! :)

[@MrMccleery]

Always a smile 😊 and interesting 👍

[@bisync1949]

A number of years ago I read a Zane Grey book. I don't remember much about the story or the book name but at the very end the villain was trying to get away but his horse threw him into a large patch of Cholla. Ouch! Zane Grey sure could paint pictures with words!

[@ZeroDiscrimination]

Thanks for bringing us along. Arizona is such a beautiful place. I got to go there this year and do some detecting and video for my channel. Happy Hunting! ~ Gypsy🌵

[@DerekNaylor]

cool video beau its like desert urbex 👍😀..when you said the bates well i thought you were going to say the bates motel ..think i would rather the well lol

[@jaybales3160]

Very interesting and educational. Thanks

[@valstachowski]

I like that you have a brain. I like that when you saw the barrel of water you didn’t open it to show KZbin there was water in it- like most knuckleheads would open it a little to let it dribble out and show us all a shot of water coming out of a faucet. Thank you.

[@TomFromMN]

Always love your SW adventures and the knowledge you share. Wasn't aware of the "Red Button".

[@karenkozak2068]

Welcome, 'chigg-brother Pete!!!

[@christinesaint9414]

Fasanating, thanks for sharing 🤗🤗

[@kodiakcopilot]

The well looked like it had cement at the bottom. I hope Roscoe was with you guys out there👍

[@roguerebel2023]

Cholla is a nasty cactus alright; The thorns are barbed, and when they pull off there is another needle underneath! I love the desert. We used to live near Joshua Tree Nat’l Park. You haven’t seen stars until you have seen them in the middle of the desert.

[@adventurearchaeology]

There is just Something so cool about detecting in the desert! Watch for the rattlesnakes haha!

[@janvafa4253]

Cool family reunion!!!!

[@wifighostcruiser9665]

110 degrees is not only not unheard-of, it's normal! I lived in Phoenix for 15 years and it got up to a hundred and 122° one day. It shouldn't be that easy of a formula....... things accelerate with time as they fall.

[@__WJK__]

You would think they'd move the water barrel closer to the tower w/the flashing blue light and big red emergency button(!)

[@grandprismatic]

Sweet vids Chigg!

[@johnshiner3295]

Great video,I have been in that area a few times,it's a different world out there.

[@HillbillyNitroUSA]

@7:50ish Tennessee in the house! 🤙

[@rockyperez2828]

Those cactus trees have a very large gord like bucket buried under the ground about 2-3' down and some can hold as much as 8-10 gallons of water which is how they can survive during extreme drought periods

[@KenG557]

Love that funky post video music

[@stephanietruly3447]

I absolutely love the desert scenery. The climate is wonderful compared to east Texas where I live. I am thinking of planning a trip to Big Bend National Park in southwest Texas. Have you ever been? PS-- Super fantastic video.. as always. ☺

[@robfarnam938]

Hit the road .......jack that was hilarious

[@mikeoreagan806]

El Camino Del Diablo....Should be GREAT hunting !!! Just make sure the hunter doesn't become the prey....I really enjoy watching your videos. They're well made, interesting, educational, and humorous. Keep 'em coming.

[@janvafa4253]

Spaceship ... lol I never thought of a silo like that!

[@canadianrelichunters5259]

Well done Beau, love these videos. ;)) ATB Michael

[@davidjeffrey8204]

Welcome to the hood, I love the desert. Love your videos.

[@delawaregamingandy9935]

Love your videos keep up the great work

[@jessebellis478]

Respect !! your the best 😁 highly insperational as always !!

[@TowGuyUSA]

Awesome chigg 👍

[@mlbwashere]

Great History you find, thanks for sharing

[@dallaswoiken7533]

Awsome can't wait to see the next one

[@cathybenson5119]

That beacon is a great idea.

[@bills6093]

Maybe we should have a couple of those beacons and water barrels in our large forested parks where people get lost, and not just on the border. If you get lost in the woods, get to a high spot and look for a blue beacon light, there you will find water and a magic red button.

[@ErikjStudios]

Thing is, we do have those in our large forested parks.... Theyre called park rangers...

[@bills6093]

You can't see a park ranger from very far away, like you could a blue beacon on a tower. In fact, you could have the coordinates of the "rescue towers" put in to the GPS system so they show up on GPS device maps. The base of the towers could have basic first aid items, water, blankets, and food. The towers could also be used by people helping injured hikers who can't make it to the tower. I realize we could never have enough towers, the areas are too large, but we could have some.

[@ErikjStudios]

Now this is a good idea that I can get behind. Thanks for clarifying.

[@susansmith6680]

Always leave us wanting more...

[@Matthew-4114]

Can't belive your so close to a million subs !

[@jontaylor1587]

Interesting!

[@ellengallerani9836]

Can't wait for video #2!

[@henryruiz1861]

Great video SIR

[@PR4470]

*I'm a Texan who used to live in Arizona back in 89, my mom is actually from the Mexican state of Sonora which borders Arizona just to the south.* 😁

[@shebawolf145]

I am amazed that those buildings weren't vandalized!

[@DEtectorCR]

This is a very cool video! Thx for sharing Mate! Cheers 🍻.

[@markparr7224]

I love AZ I so want to go back. I could live there

[@littlewrangler3]

I didn't get the notification, but I'm glad I checked my notification page!

[@josephgonynor3297]

Hey Beau great videos man and he careful out there.

[@Uniquelyyours1]

Loved it, Beau:)

[@howlingmadmudduck919]

Waiting for part 2

[@sirknight438]

To find the depth of the well, multiply the number of seconds by the speed of gravity, about 32 feet per second.

[@triac777]

sirknight438 An object in free fall will accelerate at 32 ft/sec/sec until it reaches terminal velocity. In this instance of a few seconds, your estimate will suffice. Science rules.

[@lindanwfirefighter4973]

No such thing as gravity! It’s electromagnetism!

[@sherryrector2275]

You crack me up. Only you would think about making a space video at night. No wonder your brother is hiding off video. 😂

[@janvafa4253]

Probably more than just a weather station... since it ‘observes’ Mexico!

[@lindanwfirefighter4973]

Wait! There are 2 Chiggs! 😳

[@MartyParty2809]

Great video as always

[@davideo1954]

That round deal on the wood looks like a place where there was a device for a snoose can opener. Just stick your can of Copenhagen (not a sponsor) in there and twist! Or maybe not

[@james1795]

Not a snoose can opener sponsor? Too bad. Snoose can opener techs are in big demand these days.

[@4a8d698f]

Best defense for killer bees? Hold your breath. Seriously, I live in Phoenix. They are attracted to your breath. BTW, there's scouts on the mountains all around you watching and they ain't Border Patrol.

[@ashmaybe9634]

@Jim Brown - Some dodgy Unacknowledged operation?

[@RodCornholio]

@@ashmaybe9634 Probably scouts for illegal alien networks.

[@legendaryexplorer8119]

Wow!!! So cool!!!

[@rcmadness247]

Greetings from Flagstaff!

[@alfazio047]

rcmadness247 flagstaff baby!!!!!

[@tinytattoomike7943]

Cornville too

[@thegregtastic]

The formula to find distance from free fall time (in a vacuum) is h=1/2gt^2, or read as height equals one half the acceleration of gravity times the square of the free fall time. The acceleration due to gravity is ~9.8m/s, and using a stopwatch a few times to time the rock falling and averaging them, I ended up with 1.76 seconds. If you plug that into the equation, you end up with a depth of 15.18m, or 49.8 feet.

[@debbiemitchell6055]

That house is full of mouse droppings, breathing them can give you hantavirus. If you explore abandoned houses out in the desert wear a mask please.

[@Johnbays43]

Debi Mitchell too late.

[@jonhicks7546]

good observation , hantavirus is deadly .

[@johny9516]

Debi Mitchell, funny you would mention that, I just read an article on the prevalence of haunte' virus in Southern Az. and Northern Mexico.

[@dalzoi]

I mentioned Hanta Virus to Chig the other day when he pulled out a mouse nest at a Civil War battle field dig. Deadly.

[@dnbtimmy]

the chigg just holds his breath

[@historyhunterjustindepace4837]

Great video thanks for sharing!!

[@snowballil3133]

I miss Arizona

[@dawnstanger2766]

Hi, my name is Dawn. I would like a tee shirt. Love your river videos.

[@lydiamashcka4362]

Don't forget to do some gem hunting!! you can find lots of things all along the 10 freeway and don't forget Saddle Mountain for fireagate!!

[@garyduncan6589]

Unfortunately, I forget something I need for every adventure....

[@p8erp]

Be careful...have fun

[@chesterlauck734]

Beau, the BLM thingy was a RAWS or remote area weather station

[@Mobliz]

The simplified formula you need is d= 5*t^2 Where D is meters and t is seconds

[@james1795]

What's a meter? One of those rocks that falls from the sky? Maybe something like a thermoMETER.

[@pigeonfish1725]

Did you make a spaceship video? I remember when you uploaded the "UFO" video and everyone fell for it lol (it was a silo roof I think)

[@tinytattoomike7943]

Hello from Cornville Visit Bradshaw mountains and Lynx creek if you have time

[@janvafa4253]

The water is put out by groups who want to help the people sneaking into the country since the coyotes (people who sneak others into the country) don’t provide water for the people they are ‘guiding’ into the country...

[@jhammon30]

Love the vids Beau! I live right along the old Lincoln highway aka "Great Trail" in Columbiana county Ohio. Hoping to get out and do some relic hunting myself. Maybe I can con you into coming to Ohio if I can get some decent permissions? I live close to where Morgans Raiders turned themselves in and where the "lost french gold" is rumored to be. I also have another lost treasure that needs found. That's a really long story though.

[@susanolson3611]

joshua hammon, That sounds awesome, I hope he says yes. Maybe he will finally find a gold coin... 😀

[@jhammon30]

It's the home of Union General Robert Allen and several members of the "Fighting McCooks". My town was established in 1803 so theoretically there is a mess of history to be recovered. The other treasure I need recovered is the wedding ring of a friend who drowned in little beaver creek. It mean the world to his widow. It's a long shot but we know the exact location. The dam that caused the rushing water has been removed so the water is safe to enter now. I just need someone reputable to assist with the recovery.

[@susanolson3611]

Sounds like you live in a great part of the country for metal detecting! I'm sorry to hear about your friend, that would be great to have Chigg work with you on that, he has amazing skills.

[@lesahanners5057]

Did you hear about the guy from Arizona?! He was hit by a raindrop and passed out! It took three buckets of dust to revive him. ha ha ha Sure do enjoy your travels, am looking forward to the next installment of your desert adventures. As always this one was fun and interesting, tho far less spooky than the face in the flashlight. LOL

[@james1795]

Lesa. Don't quit your day job.

[@lesahanners5057]

I don't have one, I'm retired.

[@jeremiahbrumley2032]

110 my butt. Forget the "official" temps. Down in these Arizona valleys we average about 115 through July into middle August. Hitting 120 happens several times every summer.

[@tracybradshaw1362]

awesome
