5 Places in Idaho That Look Like Other Planets

[@maryjones908]

Your kids are getting a wonderful education. It does my heart good. Y'all are wonderful parents.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Aww thank you so much!

[@brendakay2318]

Hi Nathan and Marissa. My husband and I just watched your trip to Idaho on KZbin because we are from Idaho and wanted to see the places you visited. I've lived here all my life, in Pocatello and I love it! I really wish that people knew how beautiful Idaho really is instead of thinking all there is, are potatoes. We can travel 20 minutes and be at a campground, or 40 minutes and be skiing, or a half hour and be water skiing, or 10 minutes and be rock climbing. Hiking is really close as well. I loved hiking up to balanced rock!! I didn't know about it until 4 or 5 years ago when my friend and I decided to go climb it. We had so much fun! It was soooo good to watch the places you and your family visited here in Idaho. Im sure its to late to suggest another place to see but if you're ever here again you need to go to the Minetonka Ice Caves, Bloomington Lake and Bear Lake if you didn't while you were here. They're all about in the same vicinity and they are soooo amazing!!! Your kids are cute! Brenda🙂

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much for watching! We loved exploring your home state!

[@jimmyrants4342]

What an excellent video. Being with "Finding our Someday" is an added bonus. Love both families.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Awesome, thank you.

[@steveegbert7429]

Idaho is so under rated, yet one of the most diversely beautiful places I have been and a nature photographers paradise. Thousand Springs I was not ready for the first time I stopped by there. I thought it was going to be a quick drive through but ended up spending most of a day there. Craters of the Moon was on my want list but I always bypassed it on my way to Yellowstone. I'm so glad I finally made it a destination and spent the better part of three days there taking it all in and photographing the rugged beauty there. The sun bleached dead trees really added to the otherworldly feeling. I still need to make it to City of Rocks and that area.

[@martaleary5598]

My husband and I have Idaho on our bucket list! Since we saw a documentary on ether Netflix or Amazon? And we were Wowed by the whole State! Amazing 🤩! Thank you so much for this video!

[@meaganferguson814]

Your family would love Edisto Island, SC, specifically Botany Bay and the Driftwood Beach! We were in awe with our visit over Spring Break 2023.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That is a beautiful place.

[@johnnylightning1491]

Nathan I'm not sure that Marissa isn't from another world because she is out of this world beautiful. But seriously, I must thank my parents for going to a different place every year on vacation. I've continued the tradition. I've been to every state in the union except for Alaska, California and Nevada, and I'm planning on getting to them in the next few years. Keep the good stuff coming guys and give the kids a hug from me.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you.

[@tevbrannan5885]

I've really enjoyed your Idaho videos. Who knew Idaho was so spectacular? When did y'all go? Not many people around so it seems like a good time. Keep em coming.😊

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

@@tevbrannan5885 We went late summer. August/September

[@wellsonwheels457]

High desert! Lol… awesome dudes!!!!!

[@darcyrobb3692]

Your in YT Christine aka Frugal Fit Moms hometown. Loved watching & coming along on the adventure🥰🍁🇨🇦

[@dnisley7337]

I'm so excited to watch all of you go to Craters of the Moon, someplace I've been and being able to experiencing it again. I even stayed at the same KOA.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Awesome

[@reginaf1706]

So happy you are enjoying our home state! We love Idaho!

[@jonellesandel1066]

Unusual and stunning landscapes I always come back to Utah and the incredible landscapes. Deadhorse state park is awesome, canyonlands, Bryce is an underrated gem. So amazing! Can’t forget Sedona AZ….stunningly beautiful.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Couldn't agree more!

[@paulab984]

FABULOUS video! Ya'll have convinced us to go to Idaho. Amazing! You do my heart good with your joyful spirits and your video talent. I'm old enough to be your mom and I'm thrilled to see how your kids are being raised and knowing the faith and values being instilled in them. Marissa, you're always lovely but your eyes looked luminous in this video and you're getting skinnier, girl! Of course, I'm always jealous of Nathan's eyelashes! You all look so healthy. This lifestyle is good for you! I always enjoy your videos and your commentary. Ya'll are fun! And happy birthday, Nathan!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much.

[@amyhenderson812]

JJ climbing was the best! Miss ya buddy! Love viewing the world through his eyes!

[@jackiemurphy7652]

I was going through Idaho when you guys were. wish I could of met you guys. Had to take my great grandaughter back to Nebraska, now on my way back to Washington state.. love watching you guys.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much.

[@cynthiasmith4966]

As always, a fun adventure! Just amazing! HaPpY Birthday, Nathan!

[@cherylhumphrey5693]

The things you guys are seeing Is awesome. I’m definitely going there when I go visit my aunt in Idaho. 😊

[@coreystatham]

Go see upper and lower Mesa falls in Idaho along with big springs!!!

[@MattHayashi]

Def on our bucket list now!

[@JillRH]

Great video. We lived in idaho our whole life until this summer. Moved to Kansas. Lol sounds crazy. Southern idaho is considered a “high desert” since it’s a desert at higher elevation.

[@thesandsie13the2nd]

the paint pots in either Banff National park, Kootanai national park, or Yoho national park ( i don't honestly remember where they are) Canada.

[@GettingToHeaven]

Enjoyable watch. Thanks for making the video.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@loragunning5394]

If you ever find yourself traveling thru north-central Illinois, take the time to visit The Allerton Estate. It's not really "otherworldly", but is a bit of a step back in time. After having been abandoned for quite some time, it's now under either state or private ownership (I forget which), open to the public on a limited basis. You'd have to do a search to find info on it, which I have done a number of times, but always late at night after a couple of adult beverages, so my memory of my search results is a bit foggy, apologies. I lived in the area briefly in 1973, when it was still abandoned, and my boyfriend (an Illinois native) took me there one afternoon. The memories of that day are with me still, over 50 years later. Highly recommend.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Very cool

[@debbiedriesel9109]

I'm so glad you got to experience some fun things Idaho has to offer. Between the Perine Bridge adventures of a previous video and then Craters so much fun. I wondered if you made it to the Sturgeon farm near Buhl? I'm sure the kids would have loved to see those huge fish. So glad you got to experience my home state!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks for the tips!

[@jasonsites8742]

We were at Craters of the Moon last month. Really cool place and the campground that was there is going to be a stop for us next time through. I imagine they get some spectacular night sky’s in that park!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Great sky!

[@c.alcazar2584]

Wow that is so beautiful, Im surprise how the kids sre changing, JJ is doing so good at walking everywhere and your daughter well she is climbing and walking since she was little, I know you been to New Mexico but we have a place tgat is called Bisti Badlands, is beautiful and out of this world, ...we also have Carlsbad caverns, White Sands those are few places to stsr... Well have fun and be safe....

[@brettelizabethspore]

More encouragement to head to Idaho next year. Thanks!

[@dalemarshall9736]

We camped at the campground there in the Craters of the Moon monument. Tight spots and all lava rock. Covered all the trails you hit. Nice you could meet up with FOS.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much.

[@RVMediaCreators]

Happy belated birthday Nathan🎉🎉

[@christafarmlife4246]

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much!!

[@carlsanders4680]

Thank You !!!! Me and my BRIDE ( of 35 yrs. ) are planning a road trip out west in a couple of yrs. She said she wanted to go to Idaho. I said why, it's just flat land and a bunch of potato fields. Thanks to you and some other RV full timers I have been watching for about 3 yrs, I have eaten my words. With this last video it reminds me how wrong I was and now Idaho is at the top of the list of places to see out west. Thank you for taking us on your journey around the US to show us all the wonderful places our country has to offer. Love watching your channel and family. Stay safe and enjoy every moment with family, it passes by far to quick. THANK YOU !!!!!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

One of the things we have learned in our years of travels is there is something beautiful in every state and we loved to be surprised when we find it. ❤

[@anniedew2592]

Happy Birthday Nathan 🎉

[@aRVeesBlog]

wow very interesting content friend

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@jamiemitchell8088]

I recommend Santa Elena Canyon at Big Bend National Park. It is amazing...❤

[@slamboy66]

JJ's going to be one of those extreme free climb guys. Like Patrick Swayze in Point Break.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂😂😂

[@louannad1]

Thanks for sharing this video with us. Amazaing.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you for watching.

[@bijoucr]

Happy Birthday Nate!! If you're ever up in Newfoundland, you can walk on the earth's magma in Gros Morne National Park

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That is awesome

[@karensolberg1741]

Craters of the Moon is one of my favorite National Monuments. If you get to Flagstaff, Arizona, I recommend Walnut Canyon National Monument to see the Cliff Dwellings built between 1123-1250. Wukoki is also nearby with more ruins of ancient peoples. And there are more of those lava fields like you are seeing in Idaho.

[@evanmartin7809]

We spent 3 nights in the Craters of the Moon campground. It was amazing. We could hop on our ebikes and just cruise through the park and got to see just about everything.

[@barbarapalmer268]

I see I will be going to Idaho in the near future. This was a great video.

[@andrewfidel2220]

That entry into city of rocks reminded me SO much of Bryce that my brain just screamed that it's a grey version of it. How is this not better known?!? Thank you SO much for sharing, even though we've already crossed Idaho off our states visited bucket list we obviously didn't even scratch the surface and definitely need to go back!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you for watching.

[@LDaw_96]

Not far from the Craters of the moon is a museum of the Japanese internment camp. There is a nice visitor center and you can walk around and learn about the thousands of people that lived there during WWIl because we were so afraid. They delete with such unfairness with so much grace. Many of their children were even drafted. It is inspiring. It a great historical stop.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you for the suggestion.

[@MattGross-j2w]

Happy Belated Birthday!

[@TravelingonAdventures]

Such cool places!

[@ejs6010]

Great fun sharing your b-day with FOS! Happy Birthday Nathan. Your Idaho videos have been great. You are finding gems of various places.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks so much!

[@philkraynik4887]

Awesome! Thanks!!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Our pleasure!

[@dwd3416]

We stayed at the campground at 'Craters of the Moon' and that was great, the wildlife came out at the setting of the sun.

[@northstar68]

Was so cute, Jj trying to say, Idaho😅

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

He is so sweet 😍

[@DJJulesAdventures]

Goblin Valley in Central Utah. Galaxy Quest was filmed there. We play sardines among the goblins....with limits of course. We did try hide-n-go-seek, but the first time I watched my littles run off to hide, my momma heart couldn't handle it. Sardines was safer, with momma staying with the littlest.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Good suggestions 😀

[@paddysandymcmillan8160]

My word but the kids have grown, shooting up. Bright, intelligent and happy. Spectacular visits in this video. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Aww thanks so much!

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

Idaho is gorgeous! I don't do canoes but that water, and canoe looked so inviting. Happy belated Birthday Nathan!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks!

[@firsttimecaller]

Painted Desert and Petrified Forest National Park jointly have some of the most otherworldly sites I've ever encountered. It's a wildly underrated region. Meteor Crater is also a big hit with kids. The entire route from Flagstaff to Albuquerque offers a ton of attractions that allow you to get off the beaten path for stunning landscapes.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Great suggestions.

[@tinacathey8241]

Priest lake is a beautiful area to stay and visit. Courd e Arlene resort is awesome with restaurants, massages, golfing and the floating restaurant is one of my favorite places to eat.

[@jerrydaminato743]

2018 we were in Tombstone park 🇨🇦

[@slamboy66]

This was a good vid.👍👍👍

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.

[@jaimemanning9623]

Loved the video!! We went to Craters of the Moon a few years ago, and experienced it while there was smoke in the air from wildfires. That made the experience even more cool!! There weren’t very many people there, and the feeling you got with the smell of smoke & haze, made for a pretty cool experience!

[@richardmoore2590]

[@MrCslagh]

Palo Duro canyon state ❤park is worth checking out with nice camping and hiking. Come during summer and watch the outdoor musical Texas!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks for the tips!

[@brucefranklin6765]

I visited Craters of the Moon in the early 70s when we were driving across the US to my dad’s next assignment (Hawaii)in the Air Force. I was 11 years old and still remember it. We’re planning a trip to Alaska next year and we’re planning stops in Idaho along the way.

[@tubemedude777]

Marissa you've got to go to Fossil Falls on 395 Ca the trail and the campground,,, so other worldly.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you, we will put that on the list 😀

[@northstar68]

Epic; love to learn new things 😊

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@gthornton3]

🎉🎉 Happy Birthday Nathan and many more 🎉🎉

City of Rocks, best memories ❤

Your kids will remember some of it I bet! I was 3 when we went to Disneyland in 1959 and I remember some of it.

[@herb7877]

We live in OR. but my wife is from ID. so we have been to most of the places you are showing. I think you'll understand why we have never relocated other than to visit. We were just at the falls yu were showing this summer. Well worth the trip

[@scottrussell6646]

Thanks for taking us on your unique vacations. I love learning about these places.

[@yooperdog]

Indian Lake in the U.P. has a spring, kitch-iti-kipi, or Big Springs. Great Adventure, thanks for bringing us along. And Happy Birthday 🥳

[@edandsharonmoreland]

Great video with lots of stuff to add to our list. Good to see Corey was wearing his shoes too :)

[@phyllissmith1105]

A couple of places that look like another world to me are Antelope Canyon and Meteor Crater in Arizona; Devil's Postpile and walking inside an Earthquake Fault in Mammoth Lakes California; and Goosenecks State Park in Utah.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you for the tips.

[@beachcat3258]

After watching your videos of Idaho, it’s now been added to our bucket lists.

You need to come to Oregon. You were already near the Wallowa Mountains. Go see Newberry Crater/Paulina lake near Bend. The make your way to the Oregon Coast. Maybe you’ve done Oregon already , I’m not sure , I have only been following you for a few months and I love watching your family adventures

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much. Next time!

[@Beccjam23]

Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada! Looks like a Star Wars movie set.

[@Ahuka]

White Sands is one of our favorites.

[@thehappycampercouple2266]

If you want another out of this world destination, go to White Pocket in Arizona. Near Lake Powell. Pretty neat area!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks!

[@justinpierce1440]

Need to check out mesa falls

[@gordonstrickling5971]

You would like City of Rocks State Park in New Mexico north of Deming NM. You can camp right beside or in huge volcanic rocks

[@kimthacker4729]

You should love Valley of the Gods on BLM land and Goblin Valley SP. Both in Utah. Happy RVing!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Awesome, thank you.

[@maribelalba6423]

Beautiful video! I suggest Valley of Fire State Park! Also feels like you’re on Mars!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Great suggestion!

[@exploringrvdude7817]

Hopefully you make it to Idaho Falls, it's got some great views on the waterfront are and a beautiful Japanese gardens in the same area overlooking the falls and river. I spent a week in the area and really liked it.

[@Banana10-d7s]

You have to go to Elk River ID. You literally drive until the highway ends and there is Elk River. There is hiking and waterfalls. Tons of history. Very RV friendly. The best huckleberry ice cream you will ever have. My Dad is also the Mayor there

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Very cool.

[@patriciacoxson3180]

Hello there beautiful family what a beautiful place to be . In Idaho what beautiful Waterfalls never seen so many 😊.. Love seeing all the cool places you go. Your kids are getting educated with all your Traveling and learning 😊 its very important to teach your kids how important it is how beautiful our country is. Thanks for taking us along with you everywhere you go we appreciate it Stay safe out there on the roads 😊 Take care God bless you guys ❤ we been following you ever since you started doing videos 😊

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you!

[@susanpratt3290]

Nathan, I have been in a lot of states, as we moved from time to time when my dad was in the Air Force. I went to College at Utah State University in Logan, Utah, and joined the Campus Christian Fellowship, we took many trips, one of them was to Craters of the Moon. That was awesome. We also went to Jackson Hole, rode the river raft on the Snake River, Timpanogas Cave, Provo Utah, Canyanlands, Newspaper Rock, other parts of Idaho north of Bear Lake.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

What great memories 😍

[@willaborge4824]

Hell's Canyon on the Western side of the State is another out of this world experience. There are also two different sand dune locations that are amazing. St. Anthony on the Eastern side and Bruneau Sand Dune State Park in SW Idaho.
