My body gave out on me after 3 years at the Amphibious Base in Coronado. I volunteered for stuff that I shouldn’t have and paid a price. But I got to play around in those same mountains East of San Diego, many many times. I agree with you completely. I learned 3 things from the SEALs about pain: 1) pain teaches dummies (in my case not to volunteer for dangerous missions), 2) pain lets you know that you’re still alive, 3) pain builds character. Yes, I have lots of pain in my life. But I learned something else too: you will live until the very second that you die. Until then, life is for living so LIVE dammit! Gain some pain to remind you of the foolishness of your youth and the times that God allowed you to live, when there was no reason for it. Remember the strength and vitality of your youth-and give thanks to God that you survived it when so few of your peers made it through.

I'm in my mid 40's and just now starting to settle down. From the time I got my driver's license at 16 I started off exploring the Ozarks in my home state of Missouri. Since then I have lived all over the country, I've ridden motorcycles across country, and built my own car and did the same, I've lived somewhere for a while, hiked, camped, and explored that area then moved on to the next area. Lived out of my car for almost 20 years off and on just travelling the country, hiking, exploring, etc. All my friends have fancy houses and expensive new cars. I tell them the stories of some of the things I have done and they can't even believe it, until I show them the pictures and more recently videos to prove it. Most people seem to like to use their money to buy things, I would rather use mine to DO things. I know one thing, if there is another life after this one, they can't take their nice houses and new cars, but I can sure as hell take my memories. ✌️

[@shannonwhitaker9630]

Everything about these places scream at the apparent attempt for self preservation with utter desperation to survive. When every trip to your pantry and sleeping quarters means a death defying scramble it pretty much means a bad state of affairs is going on in the area. I feel there are probably still many many undiscovered and undisturbed hideouts in the region. Those people had all day every day 365 to explore and find nooks-caves-shelters in those places. I’d bet there are completely intact undisturbed quarters somewhere yet to be discovered. Possibly venturing down to the flats for food and water came with the peril of an untimely demise. I’d bet more than once people went to get some provisions and never returned home. Evidence found by experts helps to theorize certain people were hunting natives just as much or maybe more so than hunting animals. Some say the slave trade, human trafficking and maybe worse….cannibalism was taking place. There are clues and findings that indicate forays and expeditions by people from distant lands. It’s all quite the unsolved mystery as to what went on in the desert southwest for many 1000’s of years. According to some experts many of the most puzzling petroglyphs of strange “creatures” and oddly dressed-adorned figures are possibly much older than the more common “stick figure” drawings of people-animals and such. Whatever the case the whole region is shrouded in indications of “weird chit” that went on. We’ll never know.

Very cool! When exploring sites like these it is important to remember that they were not unintelligent, and would have had ladders. Also, the terrain will have changed (rivers and streams move over time, rocks break away and fall) so the pathways could have changed as well. I have a friend who is an archeologist on a dig in north Texas where they have found a full mammoth skeleton, partially charred human remains, and very large hearth/midden that might push the date of human occupation back even further than what we currently estimate. With all of the rock shelters in your part of the country I doubt we will ever get to see them all. Thanks for the great footage, and showing respect for the land and the people who came before us!

Could be the structures were built high for airflow. High-moisture crops or harvests such as corn would require adequate drying to prevent mold. And building high provides a measure of protection against rodents and wildlife looking for an easy meal. Love your adventures! Be careful. ✌️✌️

[@xippzap]

Try for just a moment to imagine how these areas must have looked hundreds of years ago, most all of these ruins are built in canyons and canyon fingers. So, what carved these canyons? most likely water carved them. So, living in a time that had zero flood control anywhere can you imagine how flooded some of these canyons must have become. They kept high granaries and high living quarters available so when the southwest monsoon seasons came, they could just move up higher while waiting for the water levels to drop. Just my 2 cents.

I wonder if sites like this one would not have been easier to access from above. In the drone footage the structure appears about 20 ft below the cliff top, it may have been possible that they would have cut down a tree to access the shelf, also materials for construction could have well been found above rather than below the cave (easier to drop material down than to carry it up). I love seeing the various trees and plants. Here in Haiti I post my photos of local plants on iNaturalist to identify them. It motivates me to get out in nature.

They built the granaries up high to keep them away from mice. Mice like to hide down low, scurry under stuff. They go down rather than up. It is difficult for them to scale walls, and maybe get picked off by birds. Lots of open spaces in clear site for birds on cliff sides. Not a good place to be a mouse. They built high for the same reason Native Alaskans built meat cashes up high. For Native Alaskans it was bears, for the ancient desert natives it was mice. That is just my guess, but I am sticking to it. I have wondered too. I do not think it was to prevent other people from pilfering. Bonds are made by sharing. There is no bond to be made with mice.

[@mhicaoidh1]

The problem is the term grainery is not necessarily literal. They were small storage areas used for everything ... including grain but lots of other things too. So, while it makes sense (seemingly) for them to store grain up and away from mice, the structures weren't just used for grain. Also, they are built in places where there isn't immediate evidence of settlements. Lastly, with the evidence of rodent droppings, clearly without constant human monitoring (again not always nearby settlements), rodents invaded these things even up high on cliffs. The two main theories for why they built up in the cliffs and inaccessible areas are 1) this left more land available for cultivation (in response to two major droughts), and 2) defense against invading Navajo and Apache tribes. I suspect both are right to some degree, and I've always pictured those two on a sliding scale which slides more one way or the other depending on the region. Certainly, it seems there was a 3rd major drought in the area that ultimately caused them all to abandon the area for good.

But in case you have trouble with reading comprehension follow this fact closely: *Neither I, nor anyway else has claimed they did.* So why would you make this unsupported claim as if a response to someone who claimed the opposite when that has not happened? Are you angry? " _Navajos don't have anything to back them up saying that they migrated the u.s._ " Are you saying that one day long ago they just dropped out of the sky like rain?

The U.S. has only been in existence for a little less that 250 years. Do you understand now why your statement makes no logical sense? " _Navajos only have Hogan's n yeiibiecheiis that's all they got _ " That is called a "non sequitur" and it is a logical fallacy. Did you actually read my original comment at all? " _they came thru the back door into this world_ " I do not know what this means. " _u guys are nomads n come from Alaska that's why u guys build ur Hogan's like igloos_ " Uhm . . . . It is a well known fact that the core group that comprises the Diné migrated from northwestern Canada and eastern Alaska, where the majority of Athabaskan speakers reside. Again, in what way does that have anything at all to do with what I said in my original comment? Help me understand, please? I'm beginning to think that maybe you are a teenager? Or younger? Your racist comment is filled with contradictions and unsupported babbling, buddy. One minute you claim the Navajo did not migrate to the U.S. and that they have no proof to "back them up" that they did.

Been watching your videos for several months now and I've yet to see one that I have not enjoyed! Thank you from an old cripple who goes exploring through your eyes now!

[@vetinaalvarez4004]

Exciting

[@jwc4520]

Thanks I'm old living vicariously through your videos. Take care.

Another awesome video! That first stone box is very similar to ones found all over #Europe and turned out to be graves that held children, pets, or heads. Is there any evidence of the #ancient #Americans doing the same? BTW, we seriously need to get you a flashlight on your #drone 😊

Like the added sound and hearing birds.

[@billbucktube]

Imagine sitting right here next to the stone box and that big honking slab of rock falls next to you. Hopefully next to you… 😱

It's happened to peeps...

[@skyeseaborn1170]

Thank you Jeff! I loved this one. Lots to wonder over for sure. Stay safe.

Carry a collapsible ladder with you.

[@redtobertshateshandles]

😂 That seems like a funny statement.

[@xploration1437]

@@redtobertshateshandles why?

[@therockandtreeclimber8917]

Who needs a collapsible ladder when you're Jeff? Jeff is such an amazing and badass rock climber and he makes climbing up those cliffs look super easy! Glad to see that he hasn't hurt himself trying to climb as well!

[@cjdeschu]

We are blessed and thankful to be able to enjoy your adventures. Just take care.

awesome, never apologize for using the drone, I prefer the video quality and the fact it's not being disturbed.

[@xploration1437]

Thank you, Jeff! An amazing adventure again.

0:47 TY for presenting this video. 🎉 ... It looks a little tight going through that hidden pass. Are you gauging your maneuverability (like don't want to get stuck) by keeping your backpack as governor to further progression forward? They call me the Wyrd mother, heh heh. So, anyway, how did your sunglasses 👓 fare? Looks like they were hanging off the front of your shirt, there. And we're only 47 seconds into the video. Again, thank you for presenting... namaste

Hey dude, I don’t usually comment but I just wanna say I love your videos and this one especially was top shelf content.
