I travel in a small motorhome and visited Palo Duro Canyon a few years ago, and enjoyed the show Texas.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice video, you have some of the best shots of the canyon I've seen in one of these visitor vlogs. Did you ever take a ride on the Sad Monkey Railroad? I grew up and still live 50 mi SW so our family would pack a picnic and spend an afternoon there at least once per summer... usually after a nice rain. The water crossings and those big cottonwoods were the main attraction for me. I was a tree climber. I'd rather be there than at any amusement park. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. I haven't made it over there since 2011. I'm overdue.

[@WildBillAdventures]

Thank you so much! Good photos take some planning and these turned out nicely. Yes, we rode the train and I remember a deer that hung around the snack bar there. You ARE overdue, but I won't tell anyone!

@WildBillAdventures In 2011 I took a friend from Chicago out to the park. When he saw the canyon he was inspired to take 360° photos to have made into background wallpaper for his photo studio. It may have proved to be impossible since he didn't mention it again. After PDC I chauffeured him out to Red River for his first look at the Rockies. It's fun seeing people react to what we take for granted.

@@rt3box6tx74 It is! We went to Germany years ago to visit my wife's sister and we went to either a Natural History museum or a Botanical Garden place in Frankfurt. We stood in line to see a special plant exhibit and when they let us in it was "Cactus". We were not impressed but everyone else there was Oooing and Aaawing. Haha!

Love the photos you include! The one of the turkey and the spigot is so charming. Thanks for sharing!

[@WildBillAdventures]

Thank you! I love that turkey pic too!

Excellent!

Thank you for watching!

Very nice. That hoodoo you showed during the Lighthouse part was not in fact the Lighthouse. That’s a smaller hoodoo much closer to the road. The actual lighthouse is much bigger and you can walk right up to it. You can also climb up on top of the peak behind it pretty easily, pretty much just a walk up. The lighthouse trail is about 6 miles round trip though and people underestimate their water needs in the canyon summer.

Another note, I e been all over the state park, even the areas very far from trails. There are lots of interesting sites. There are slot canyons and ruins from the old Goodnight Ranch as well as from the Civilian Conservation Corps during the depression era

[@WildBillAdventures]

Thanks for the info! I can't get down most of the trails in my wheelchair so this is great for those who can.

Been there many times..interesting place. The rattlesnakes ? Yes, they are there, so do not allow your pet to go roaming, or walk with them on their leash. The show Texas they do was good, with the canyon back drop. Camp sites are good as well.

[@WildBillAdventures]

Thanks for your input! Happy Trails!

So a big scrub, desert park..no thanks ! Wouldn't drive a thousand miles to see.

[@WildBillAdventures]

But on the positive side, I guess I saved you a lot of gas!! Thanks for watching!
