Nizhoniful Monument Valley! Beautiful, Colorful Navajo land!!

[@Volunteersunrise]

[@robinscarborough6969]

You go everywhere I want to see, ahhh, one of these days

[@birdman5223]

Fabulous☺️

[@sandypratt8951]

❤️ beautiful, thanks for the ride.👍👍👍

[@ericlondonrocks]

Nice video Russ. My grandfather was a sound and lighting camera assistant for the filming of Stagecoach in 1939 in Monument Valley.He worked for Universal Studios in sound and lighting after that up until his death in 1954. Our family has many pictures and stories about those wild days.

[@Volunteersunrise]

The Navajo are wonderful folks. Safe travels Russ.

[@charleshicks3492]

Beautiful area, your drone footage is fantastic; stay safe😎😎😎😎😎⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@lesliegriffith9830]

My mother and I took our 3 man tent and stayed at Gouldings Good Sam campground back in the late 80s. We had THE most beautiful view of those mountains. The sunset was fantastic. It was just like the scene from John Fords westerns. Thanks for the memories.💖

[@levibrewer4304]

Been there nice campground.

[@stephbrandenburg9957]

Definitely cup of tea weather .. rain just keeps me sheltering in place! Take care!

[@charleshicks3492]

Thanks for the ride along; beautiful area⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😎😎😎😎

[@kathy_ee5671]

This is so beautiful this drive never gets old any time of the year it’s just a great place that red landscape is just gorgeous 🌄🇺🇸

[@carolhieter3916]

Such a beautiful area! Thanks for taking us with you, Russ!

[@marjorjorietillman856]

Absolutely, from So Cal! Though it’s not that far from me, I may never see it, so this is a great upload! 👍🏽

[@hyper_adhd_kid]

I live here

[@SPak-rt2gb]

Cool Beans...Will be looking forward to be seeing more of Utah. Safe Travels

[@reidellis1988]

I have lived in Utah for all of my life and i am glad i got to see so many places before all the crowds showed up. It's absolutely gorgeous. I love so many places in this world, but Utah is my home. Thanks for the video. Buy some Pinenuts!

[@johnlenart597]

Was on a trans-America motorcycle trip 35 years ago, but bypassed this area worrying about lack of petrol stations. Now I see yuck Donald's and roundabouts., and litter. I'd loved to seen it back when the westerns were being filmed. Sometimes the present isn't as good as the past. Glad for the ride-a-long. Still a beautiful area of this wonderful country. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋‍♂️

[@tomburke1960]

I visited there last year and also took the 17mile road through the Valley of the Gods. AMAZING! It has lots of free camping. At the end is the Moki Dugway. A switchback road you will never forget driving up!

[@richardl.7390]

Memories, memories ... I must have visited Monument Valley 5 or 6 times over the years and it was always a "monumental" event. I slept in the campground a couple of times between 1980 and 1998. When I visited in 2013 after 15 years without going, the Navajos had built a new Hotel where the campground was. The Mittens are a marvelous sight at sunrise during the summer. I saw a moonrise once and the light was extraordinary, red Earth and cerulean-blue Sky and so quiet. Once I had bought delicious, ripe Arizona peaches and a male sheep attacked me to steal my peach ... lol! The Valley is always beautiful to visit. Thanks for your awesome video, Russ. RICHARD

[@PrimeTimeTravelers]

Absolutely one of our favorite drives we have ever taken. We can't wait to go back and do it again in a few years!

[@keith01956]

Very cool thanks for the ride along Russ

[@brycehongola2425]

The land is for looking only☮️🌵🙂I was there last September. The best part of the trip.

[@larryjohnson6398]

Beautiful rest love the clouds too nice to see some down there in that area of the desert normally all you see is Blue Sky anyway have a blessed day

[@rhondaadams4013]

What a gorgeous scenery!! One day, I'd like to travel that way and see the monuments for myself.

[@skyebird3933]

Amazing scenery with the natural monuments. Thanks, Russ. Always enjoy wherever 'we' go. 😊

[@gregdoyle4602]

Brings back memories of when I was a geology major crawling all over that country in the late 70s. Need to go back. Thanks Russ

[@Apiaman1]

That's beautiful country. Look out for those flash floods racing across the roads.

[@ksr1177]

Very beautiful never get tired of seeing those monuments been through there a few times. Thanks for the great video Russ.

[@having-fun-while-i-can]

Sir, you had the best weather to be in Monument Valley. I'll take cloudy Grey skies over sunny cloudless days.

[@ScottyInHawaii]

Thank you! Another one for my bucket list!🤙✌

[@timpage8996]

This was on my list in March 2020 when the Canadian border got closed and I had 10 days to get out of dodge before my travel insurance expired??? Also wanted to get to Page, Hopi cultural centre, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas before heading north! All still on my bucket list for another year!

[@mr.wilson8340]

Glad I got to see this video. I live 2 hours away from this area and have never been there.

[@walterbright1396]

Thanks, I needed my fix of the west and Monument Valley and southern Utah in particular is a favorite of mine. I have missed it the past 3 years but will return there in 2023. Look forward to you continuing north to Moab.

[@susiachmady]

exciting ride, views along the way in Utah's Monument Valley. very extraordinary landscape in Utah 17.16

[@DreamCather147]

We were at MV in November of 1992. They had the first snowstorm. Looked like you reach out and touch the clouds !

[@myjourneysinfaith]

Been there , love that drive. So beautiful

[@willothewispl]

So beautiful. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

[@apolloskyfacer5842]

Hi Russ. I drove up through there way back in 1993. But still, it's so good to watch your video and see how much of my memory is triggered. I'm a little saddened about how much I've forgotten as far as the scenery goes. I was self driving, so a lot of my attention was about keeping an eye on the road in front of me. But this is the real value of your videos. We get to travel the road again. It's much appreciated.

[@edwardmiller6353]

Great scenery, Russ! Well done!

[@rogerblack6270]

My family went through there in July Just absolutely beautiful

[@rickeap]

Magnificent area. I visited in 2016, staying at the Weatherall Inn in Kayenta.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Hello Russ! Blue sky, puffy white clouds, against the reds & brown just enhances the beauty surrounding the KOA. Looks like a relaxing campground. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

[@jeffhudson1744]

beautiful location. I have to say that for someone as old as I am, this is the first time I have seen speed bumps in a rock/gravel lot of any kind.

[@lorilove4706]

Videos are so enjoyable, I appreciate you letting us go along with you!

[@goodoakpress]

Beautiful scenery. Been through Monument Valley a few times. Last time we went on to the Four Corners Monument. That place has sure changed too. It's gone from a little marker in the desert to a fancy plaza. From there we went on to Mesa Verde National Park. Interesting part of the country.

[@MelissaBarney-f1i]

Have enjoyed watching your KZbin videos about Monument Valley & other areas in Utah. Thank you!

[@josephnason8770]

Went here coming South from Moab opposite of the direction in this video. Checked in at Gouldings. Found our spot for our rented Class A. It was in an enclosed canyon with no view. Immediately checked out with a refund which was given no problem. Went across the two lane highway to the Navaho place called "The View". Now we had a place with a view. What a view!

[@LandRoverDS2020]

I've never been but maybe one day. Thanks for sharing Russ as usual 🤠

[@ramontoro]

Beautiful and excellent video Russ , in 2019 we were in that area and really we enjoy the trip, are going to Moki Douky? It’s a real mountain with a magnificent view , next 2023 March we are going to finish our trip, Moab it’s different town and very interesting , thanks Russ from Puerto Rico

[@davechristian7543]

[@davechristian7543]

Gotta love the different colors when the drone went up at times.#Incredible.

[@davidleadford6511]

A bucket list item for me.

[@jesscarey7666]

Fantastic video! Thanks Russ!

[@yvonnemiranda2918]

Hi Russ.... been there I love the drive 😉 be safe 0n the road ☺ Navajo country 😎

[@timf6916]

Good video

[@BrendaHaltom-cs6ck]

Wow beautiful!❤️🌄🚙😀

[@tonniessing2274]

Hi Russ, one of the most beautiful routes we missed in March 2019! Snow was the interrupter! thanks for sharing! Greetings from The Netherlands

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

Love this video Russ! 👋🏼🇨🇦

[@davidprado9630]

Visually, the Best video of yours I've seen! Nice Job!

[@rvertv]

Thanks! 😃

[@milehighkit4725]

Interesting footage from the archives of RVer TV. That worked out perfect I had a little spare time to kill. Best wishes! Happy Thanksgiving.

[@stephrusty3055]

Absolutely brilliant place Russ ,stayed at Goulding lodge. Got up early to look at sunrise come up .lovely photos of right and left mit at monument valley with sun coming up behind .then done Navajo tour .breathtaking scenery. Then finished off in a navajo diner for mutton stew . Great Experience.👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@rvertv]

Thanks 👍

[@johnwirt6921]

Hey Russ! Been there three times and still want to go back. Love your video. If my mind serves me right, there was a Burger King at the 163 turn off that housed a memorial to the code talkers and had some captured WW2 Japanese artifacts. Another place for a good view of Monument Valley is Mulie Point around Mexican Hat. You'd have to go up Moki Dugway to get to it.

[@Frisky0563]

Hi Russ hope you have a great thanksgiving! ❤

[@susanstrickland6774]

That's a beautiful drive. Nice drone footage. Definitely a great view from the campground. Happy Thanksgiving!! 🙂👍

[@dezertraider]

AWESOME RUSS,,STOP IN BLANDING V PLACE,REMARKABLE JEWELRY...SAFE TRAVELS,,

[@peacedove9513]

Russ Happy 🦃 Day!! Get stuffed🤣 enjoy .. Can't wait to take this ride from Az north.✌️💜🎼🎵🎶

[@maryannereed1752]

love your videos....

[@nationalparksprincess3216]

Russ, we went in May 2016, and it had been raining before we arrived. The truck was covered with inches thick red mud after we drove through lol

[@moms65mustang68]

Just drove that same way you did, except I was going south. Not sure why you sat on this beautiful video! You will not have a hard time finding where Forest Gump was filmed, it is clearly marked, but I am not going to give anything away. Thanks Russ

[@alejack12001]

Really boss ride, Russ. I saw some of those mountains and spires way back in the 1990's as well. It's a really cool site to see. Thanks for the heads up on the RV rentals. Yes, gas must still be an issue in the southwest.

[@stevepage7463]

Gr8 video! Russ, you need to add your RVer TV logo to the sides of your van... might get some perks with promotions and what not..

[@wayawolf1967]

Cant wait to get back out there to see the ancient tree stumps again in the Spring of 2023.

[@steviejd5803]

We are heading there in May, if all goes well.

[@jasons_tx_adventures]

EPIC VIDEO! Definitely got this place on my bucket list. The area reminds me of something you might see on Mars with the red dirt and formations. Can't wait for the next video! GREAT JOB! HAPPY THANKSGIVING! 👍👍

[@MarcBaldelli]

Enjoyed traveling with you.Hope to get up the nerve to do it myself.

[@thomaswinnen4365]

🙋🏻‍♂️ Russ, love your videos.. hopefully soon I'll be doing the same... I can't wait for the adventure ☺️ Yay!!

[@cqarizona4461]

Nice road trip Russ...but you missed stopping at Goulding's Trading Post Museum.: John Wayne's Cabin from filming of "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon" (Goulding's is just a couple clicks west of that KOA you stayed at) The museum exhibits much from the many movies filmed right there in the Valley. Be sure and stop on your next trip through.....Also the main Valley Welcome Center just a click East of that KOA....

[@pc-yx9uh]

i assume you are recording 4k. your video is amazing. perhaps high frame rate. thanks for sharing!

[@martyrose]

Hey Russ!🙋‍♀️ Beautiful colors. It's like a completely different world for those of us accustomed to trees and grass.Thanks! 🍁🍂Happy Thanksgiving!🍂🍁🧡

[@toddjohnston4788]

Happy Thanksgiving

[@cliffkellerman7679]

So, did you register all of us that were waiting in the van at the Koa..... 😇

[@LockerMart]

Been to MV. Great video. Please mention camp fees and facilities. Water, electric , bath, if any. Also, mobile phone signal strength.

[@SmittyAZ]

Have you RVed to all of the lower 48, or where have you missed?

[@lucillecordes9896]

Hi Russ. Lucy from Minnesota. I have a question for you. What dashcam camera do you use. I am in the market for one. I don't want expensive, but decent quality. I am trailering a 24' camper and I'm new to camping in a trailer. I really like your videos. Thank you

[@IDNHANTU2day]

I love the name MOAB. During the Desert Storm war in the early 90s, it meant Mother Of All Bombs.

[@rickcrippen5180]

Red dirt and white snow makes PINK mud.

[@susannenerad9851]

Wow, so many of these traveling KZbinrs, don't know what to watch, so many going to the same places, beautiful country though

[@slee4444]

I really enjoyed staying there a couple of years ago, but in a hotel. will you please let me know the RV site you stayed, next time I'd like to spend some days at this RV site. thanks

[@rvertv]

Will do!

[@SmittyAZ]

It's already been 20+ years since I was there. Someone mentioned some campgrounds closing to 'force' people to stay in the $$$ motel on the Rez?

[@allthingsmotor1073]

It's crazy to think how long it took to carve out those monuments by people with just simple tools..

[@suethornton2055]

❤❤

[@paulduffy8774]

i saw all those in western movies back in the 1950 s

[@hyper_adhd_kid]

You should have gone up to the view hotel, its got the best tails and the best views, hence the name. As some on whos lived their for 15 years, i know what i'm talking about

[@nealhathaway2004]

If you drive up the Mochie dugway to Mulie Point, it's BLM and you have a great view of the valley.

[@Expressionistix]

Valley of the Gods is almost as beautiful as Monument Valley and you get a beautiful view of it atop the Moki Dugway. Also BLM land. One day it will change but for now you can drive into it and camp and pay nothing,

[@JanelleVocate-Ames]

YAY!!!! IT'S RUSS!!!

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

Wow! Do they really get snow?

[@rvertv]

yes haha

[@breathedeep]

Hello! Quick question? Does driving through require a permit?

[@rvertv]

no permit free to travel

[@sandrajordan3802]

Didn’t Forest Gump end his run in MV? I knew it.

[@alexandershatzko8748]

Alec Baldwin is to finish the movie ''RUST'' in this area

[@i70show]

I can tell you’ve never priced one of those motor homes to rent lately. It’s pricey as hell they are.
