Two Days in ZION National Park!

Season 05, Episode 18: sup crew! spent a few days in southern utah at one of my favorite national parks in the state, zion! tara and i had some beautiful weather and incredible campsites just outside of zion national park. we spent the first day driving around and did some mellow hikes out of the visitor center. the second day we took the shuttle up into zion canyon and hiked up to the emerald pools and went all the way to the end of the canyon for a riverside walk. definitely put zion national park on your bucket list!

zion is definitely one of my favorite places in utah! we had some incredible campsite views!

[@ActionXander]

Zion is an incredible National Park I love it so much

[@aljacobs3922]

You absolutely killed it with this video. Very high quality, perfect mood, music matched the scenes. The time lapse of the skies was top notch and professional. This is some of your best work, Lucas. Work like this will expand your subscriber base beyond the bread and butter skiing. Bravo

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you very much. i really enjoy being able to put some extra time and thought into my cinematography with trips like this.

[@FainHenderson]

I think this is my favorite non skiing video you’ve done. Awesome adventure, can’t wait to visit Utah next year.

[@LucasCatania17]

Really appreciate that man.

[@ActionXander]

Zion National Park is such a treat to visit. Happy you got to show Tara!

[@LucasCatania17]

Yes!! Best park in Utah

[@brettbrocoff6955]

Love your ski videos but I think this is one of your best videos yet. Keep doing u👍

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks Brett. New ski video coming this week.

[@DCProductions00]

What an amazing place. Tara is really getting comfortable in front of the camera. Love to see it!

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you brother! shes getting better!

[@HawkinSaeger]

Those intro shots were stunning

[@danmcneil2940]

the night sky time lapse 👌

[@LucasCatania17]

milky way was showing off!

[@ericgulseth74]

Homerun baby! Loved this one. Music was on point. Cinematography was great. AND... What I've have been saying... Including Tara. The human element helps your videos connect so well. You come across humble and approachable already as is, she just added another level. Humans are social creatures. Sometimes it's nice to see the social side of it. And by the way, if Tara loves water so much, bring her and Luna back to Upstate NY... Summer east coast trip!

[@justinbayola]

Gorgeous video brother. Always so awesome to be in these special places. Congrats on the cherry poppin Tara lol

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks brother. The stoke lives on.

[@cliang001]

Do the mountains and the beauty of the landscape solely exist for us to capture it and enjoy it with those we love? Thanks for sharing this one with us, don't you mess this up with Tara.

[@LucasCatania17]

I believe it does my friend. “Happiness is best when shared”

[@willwright688]

This is one of your best videos, nice work!

[@kathygoff1]

Lucas, I think this may be one, if not THE best vid you have ever done!! If YT gave out awards, this would be First Place! You are the Champion, at filming, editing, music selection and enjoying Tara time (she is so lovely!). As always, thank you for sharing this Epic vid!! 👏🚐☺️

[@LucasCatania17]

haha! dont think i could take first place but thank you so much kathy!

[@bonrodgers4096]

Beautiful place I think all Utah is great I love canyon lands . Looks like you had a fun time.

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks bon! Canyonlands is so great also 👍🏽

[@joshjjjjj25]

The narrows is a must. Its really cool in the summer since the water is so cold.

[@LucasCatania17]

So I’ve heard! Definitely want to try n get that one under my belt this year

[@raymondsiewert2720]

Beautiful ! Man you went at just the right time. Great music that matches the views 😊

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks man! was super nice down there

[@pranavmalavalli5582]

Good change of pace from skiing, fire views 🔥

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you brother!

[@Gabrocol]

Amazing! Zion is one of my favorite places in the US (minus the crowds). Great that you guys got to enjoy it.

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks man! Something so spectacular about driving up the canyon!

[@trevdorand]

love these vids... thanks for sharing with us!

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks for watching brother

[@jacksultan8146]

Background music is so apropos😊

[@Louis-zc7im]

Great video Love Zion. Did Angels landing in 2013 . It was crazy. Definitely was memorable. Best hike I ever did. October is a great time to visit

[@shawneggers4484]

Damn brother I love your nature vids! The cinematography in capturing the serenity and beauty is sooo good! Even among the ‘tourist hell’ you captured what the essence of Zion truly is :)

[@LucasCatania17]

haha thanks shawn! did my best in between the crowds!

[@paulhowardvideos]

Nice video. Brings back memories. Zion is such an amazing park. My buddy and I skipped Angel's Landing, because it was so crowded, and I'm so glad we did. We continued our hike past Angel's for another 8 miles and only saw 4 other backpackers on the hike. So happy we missed Angel;s to be able to experience that. I think it was called West Rim Trail. Best hike I've done in a while. It looked a little overrated considering all the other trails there...Observation Point is another great hike. Both of those are higher than Angel's and have amazing views.

[@louisolberding5245]

THIS is why you do what you do. Strong work!

[@LucasCatania17]

Thank you my friend.

[@jacksultan8146]

Awesome scenery I Love the color variations spectacular thanks for sharing

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks for watching jack!

[@jacksultan8146]

Great Milky Way shot at the end Wow

[@andrewmahoney5099]

Great video. Can’t wait to go back to Zion this spring

[@LucasCatania17]

nice man!!

[@ADHski]

Awesome video man! Really captured the beauty of American national parks. One day I'll make it out there, thanks for sharing!

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks brother! gotta check out the mighty 5 in utah!

[@blacktusktrees]

dude that star trail pan down at 7 was so sick

[@LucasCatania17]

glad you liked it man!

[@peterizz44]

Great video of you and Tara at Zion! Happy to see Tara as an integral member of The Stoke Squad!

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks pete! good to hear from you!

[@michae8jackson378]

Incredible photography, but I love the music mix even more! Really made for the right mood. Well done Lucas!

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks man!

[@stefangonzo]

Very nice. I'm almost ready to let winter go, lol.

[@LucasCatania17]

Haha! Almost !

[@alainbrouillaud484]

Hi Lucas & Tara 😊 Nice to see you two share some quality time together.

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks Alain!

[@eliethridge5969]

Your skiing videos are epic, but this is one of the best you’ve done.

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you very much

[@Ben_skies_]

Dude this is so beautiful

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks homie!

[@zachtilley4918]

Loved the video dude. The cinematic shots with that music combo was perfect. Refreshing.

[@LucasCatania17]

appreciate that homie!

[@Thomas_Needs_Coffee]

Nice! Getting stoked for southern utah, Gonna be staying in St. George next month. Looking forward to MTB, Zion and all the outdoors I can get

[@LucasCatania17]

nice man! heard there is epic MTB down there

[@drewflanagan8]

Really enjoy your cinematography. Cool to see you put it to use in different landscapes too. Especially Zion!

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you my friend

[@gamesa1231]

Great place and Video. More Tara she seems grown

[@gamesa1231]

Great

[@fishskigaming]

No way! I was in Zion a couple weeks ago, cool place although it was pretty crowded and you had to take a shuttle bus to get to some Of the areas. It was a cool experience otherwise. Btw love the channel!

[@LucasCatania17]

thank you!!

[@dperrineucsb]

I like the weeping rock trailhead up to observation point, but it seems to have been closed for a while.. it is not sketchy, but it it is a big elevation increase.

[@kenberkley4197]

Great video!

[@LucasCatania17]

thanks!

[@juryacquittal]

I love Zion. Second only to Yosemite. The Subway hike at Zion is highly recommended. I usually go in October.

[@LucasCatania17]

yosemite is tough to beat. definitely would have to put it over zion. gotta try the subway one day!

[@steveharris6916]

Don’t forget to smash the like button and share. 💁‍♂️

[@LucasCatania17]

Thanks steve!

[@ronwilson5210]

Just sent you an Amazon package of Valentina hot sauces. 🔥 We like the "hotter" of the 2, but they are both good on everything. In your PO Box by the 21st. Keep Tara to the milder 1st. 😅

[@LucasCatania17]

noted! thank you brother!

[@bjbhehir]

Hey Lucas, hope you had a great ski season!! This year was my 11th year in a row with over 100 day, I only got 110 this year!! Anyways, I'm heading down to Vegas in my van this week for a few shows at the Sphere and then a few days at Zion, so I loved you video!! Could you please tell me where you where camping the last night (around the 13:00 mark) Thanks and Safe Travels!!

[@Migueiii65]

Epic

[@timothyleen]

My 11 year old daughter, me and my wife are headed out to Moab, Arches, Canyonlands, and maybe touch Zion before we pop by Park City this summer. Thanks for the info.

[@LucasCatania17]

sounds epic my friend

[@Mia-ht8oi]

Nice video! Is the shuttle wait period long? We are heading there end of July. What is the trail by the river? Thanks!

[@JamesYGGoY]

Observation Point is a good alterative to Angels landing in that situation - the summit overlooks Angels Landing. Longer but not as technical as Angels Landing

[@LucasCatania17]

I’ve wanted to do that also! It’s been closed because of a rockslide unfortunately

[@user-vj7qx1zy2b]

05:18 Did she make you pay her to film a Daisy Duke moment?😂

[@LucasCatania17]

She actually set that shot up on her own!

[@kathygoff1]

😅😂

[@beardelmar]

what is the music, and thanks, man 🙂

[@Dontreadthis0]

nice video but you didnt list the music you used.

[@LucasCatania17]

I get my music from epidemic sound.

[@jacksultan8146]

You could say what could be better....
