Utah - Hovenweep and Canyons of the Ancients.

[@bsjcook]

Thanks Sis, we wouldn't be able to see that trail without your beautiful video!

[@BillSprague]

I love the “driving down the bumpy road” music! Your route is now on my bucket list, thanks!

[@ljiljanamahmutagic6186]

Beautiful sunrise,State Parks I have never heard of,"Debbie❤style hikes"...nobody around...Can't ask for more on Friday night!...love your hair up. Thank you D&J .

[@bruceclyne5254]

John, you’re a born actor. Well done team!

[@thrivingnow7843]

Ah ! Hovenweep. You mesmerize me. Years ago I tented there in beautiful Hovenweep alone in June. I was the only camper there. The strongest winds I've ever experienced made it hard to put up my tent, but I succeeded. When the winds die down there is a quiet serene feeling that overwhelms you, especially when you see the full moon rising over Sleeping Ute to the east. This is a magical place. I've been back several times and will continue to do so. 🏜️🥰🌚

[@FromShetoMe]

That sounds magical.

[@JRShattlesJr]

What a GREAT video! Music, views, and narrative! Great composition. And you guys are simply the best. Stay safe. 💞

You put a lot of thought & heart into your videos. Always look forward to each one and it brightens my entire day. Thank you very much…and John too who makes me smile.

this whole video was amazing, espically that last hike, thank you a thousand times for letting us go with you!

[@annmoore6562]

What a fantastic looking hike!

[@VANTREKKINGlifestyle]

John doing a "Happy Dance" while you retrieve the camera... priceless. This was an awesome story told through video. Great, creative camera placements on this one. Beautiful color! Beautiful campgrounds. Especially loved your changing locations animations. We loved a lot about this episode, but keep in mind our opinions may reflect the fact that we just love you two west coast versions of east coast us. Until we meet in the middle... stay safe and happy.

[@FromShetoMe]

You are too kind. But as you know, it's easy when you have material that is fun to work with. Not so much for my current edit. Always a challenge in making lemonade.

[@philipdutton9831]

Love the National Monuments! Definitely more bang for the buck especially for seniors and no crowds! Great video, Thanks!

[@bobandmarthahenson4909]

Great video! Thank you for inspiring us to get out there and push ourselves a little. We loved seeing a little more of John’s personality in this one.

[@mysticalmisfit1332]

Hi Debbie & John!🙋🏽‍♀️ Happy Friday😊 Loved the music in this….”If you’re wider than this, don’t come here.” Noted….🤣🤣🤣

Such good hikes. Awesome terrain. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Nice adventurous video! You guys are inspiring!

[@beverlyhendricks9456]

Another fab vid. Thanks!

[@pauldonahue6609]

Thank you so much for this beautiful video! I am exploring vicariously through you at the moment. A few years ago I visited Hovenweep and camped. It is a dark sky park. A camper had giant telescopes. I think he was a professor. You have convinced me to return to this Monument because you have shown me that there are many hikes and sites that I missed.

[@FromShetoMe]

I bet if you stop at the museum in Dolores first, you'll get lots of good info on the area. I can't wait to go back.

[@richardross3172]

Thanks John and Debbie, Hovenweep is definitely on my bucket list!!!!

[@Bee-ti1rv]

Another great video! Hope you do go back. The museum is excellent. Thanks for sharing. 🤩

We definitely will.

FSTM,,,Hello to both of you, the opening scenery with just the TOPS in SETTING SUN, was really nice, but your stops & trecks were delightful, &yess in the 4 corners areas, is chock full of ruins, , stay well, enjoy your trips THANKS !! God Bless, happy trails🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@doncates2954]

Another wonderful video, the photography was superb, I could count grains of sand in some of the sandstone you walked over. The music was absolutely beautiful, it went so well with the topography.

[@dennim3286]

Another great video! My husband and I look forward to your videos. You always do a great job with music and content. We just added a couple of places to our Places To Visit list.

[@larryv4249]

How about "From Nature's Beauty to Me"? Oh, and John, Dancing with the Stars called, they saw your 2-step on the trail 😊. And how did they anchor those stone structures onto the giant boulders? So glad to see the preservation efforts taking place!!!!!!!!

[@FromShetoMe]

LOL. He couldn’t dance if his life depended on it. I had the same thought about how they built on those rocks! Did they have their own version of scaffolding?

[@VANTREKKINGlifestyle]

We totally agree. ❤️

[@jonathancook-fisher6174]

Awesome gran gran

Is this Finn? 😘

[@swansodi]

Super video, I really enjoyed it!!

[@joansrvadventures6112]

Another amazing video! Your photography and music are excellent. I am always amazed by how you are so athletic in your hiking. It was great to see this location as I would not be able to climb that much and certainly would not fit in those cracks. You guys are doing retirement right!

[@jeffreyraines4913]

So many great places to visit in that area!! My “Bucket List” keeps expanding. Such beautiful open country. Only mountain we have here in Orlando is Space Mountain (Disney) 😊 Thanks for taking us along. Wishing you safe travels. 🙏

[@panchamama]

you did a great job representing the area. cottonwoods add punctuation to the remoteness. the museum in Delores is worth a return. and a delightful bakery near the river in old town of Delores .

[@panchamama]

bakery in Mancos, not Delores.

[@FromShetoMe]

Thank you. We’ll try to get back there next fall.

[@craftytraveler9238]

Thanks so much for the wonderful video. We were in Mesa Verde in May. We really need to go back to see some of these other places.

[@kxrv6629]

Nice shoulder season video. We went to Hovenweep in July 2016 BRV (before RV). What an awesome assortment of ruins and so few people even in July. Thoroughly enjoyed, even if the temp was pushing 100°. As I recall they get less than 25,000 visitors per year. From here we went to Zion where we couldn’t even find parking to catch the shuttle. Talk about culture shock! Safe travels

[@FromShetoMe]

So true. Can’t wait to go back and visit the museum and more ruins.

[@timsmith7625]

Thanks for the video and enjoyed it! Was on a similar path in 2019 and was also running from the cold WX so my fresh water didn’t freeze. When I climbed Wolf Pass east of Durango I made it before 6” of snow hit the pass.

[@FromShetoMe]

That’s an amazing pass; I wouldn’t want to do it in snowy weather.

[@timsmith7625]

@@FromShetoMe I didn’t even pay attention to the WX as I left Mesa Verde and passed through Durango. Was a pretty day, sunny, and 50’s, then made to Alamosa and then it turned bad. Great Sand Dunes we’re cold, windy, and rainy so headed east then south again to Las Vegas NV and warmer temps.

[@JJs-ClassC-Adventures]

I couldn't say any of your hike was boring. It looked amazing to me. We were planning on stopping at Hovenweep next spring, but I have a new grandbaby arriving in late April. We aren't planning on leaving for a trip until end of May. I was wondering if it would be too hot in early June? Thanks so much for sharing your adventures.

[@FromShetoMe]

It's possible but at that higher elevation, you should be ok in early June.

[@JRShattlesJr]

If only I could hit Like more than once !!!

[@FromShetoMe]

Thanks!

[@Steve-hb3ln]

Hello Debbie and John! Sara and I truly enjoy your videos, your travels, and thank you for sharing your trips and insights with us! Could you tell me the manufacturer of your bike rack that you use for your eBikes….Please! I need to get one, we like yours because it supports the weight and swings out of the way when needed. Thank you! Steve!

[@FromShetoMe]

The swing hitch is by Wilco. The rack is by Hollywood. But if I were you, I'd check out 1Up: www.1up-usa.com/product-category/bike-racks/. We are seeing more and more of those and I like that they have an accessory that allows you to roll the bike up on a track.

[@TM88FYI]

How do you find these beautiful places to go? Another beautiful video. Thank you.

[@nancyk9475]

Another great video! Love your adventures. Also love your recipes. What kind of visor are you wearing? Seems like more coverage. Thank you

[@always.wondering.wandering]

So, what was the name of the campground you left from at the start of this video, I didn't catch it, you were in space #9. Glad I am keeping my weight in check, I want to do some of those narrow hikes as well. Loving your end of October travels. Take care

[@FromShetoMe]

Yes, I meant to put it on the screen. It's called Thousand Trails RV Park in Torrey. We stayed there last year as well. Great spot to take care of all the weekly jobs. And they have a nice store as well.

[@maggiebrattoli383]

I stopped the video @0.09 since I realized that’s the same width of my shoulders and hips. 😂 And by the looks of it, yours also 😆

[@FromShetoMe]

It took us some time to figure out that was the way they wanted us to go because it was so dark.

[@TM88FYI]

Good things that you guys are fit, otherwise you never got to see the Bison or Hippo?

[@iaingarthley2466]

A wee quickie, (I'm sure you'll have heard it before, but cat resist). What's the difference between a bison and a buffalo... You can't wash in a buffalo. Thanks again

[@FromShetoMe]

Love stupid dad jokes. And I also love watching “Big Timber” on KZbin.

[@doggonervn211]

The "girls" and l will be out there more next year like that - now ALL my upgrades (for the foreseeable future) are done on my Ascent. 😆 UP here we are having "torrential" rains more than usual each year! People will be towing boats soon to be safe! Great video as always.

[@FromShetoMe]

We’re in the midst of a heat wave; 90 degrees today.

[@doggonervn211]

@@FromShetoMe , You can send about 60 degrees of that this way, LOL>

[@tdadventures]

Does not look like we can do that narrow trail. We are too wide. After staying two weeks at Assateague National Seashore in MD, we are heading home. So sad to say goodbye to all those wild horses. We saw so many of them when we were leaving.

[@wjeffp]

Hi ….what was the name of the AAA map you had…I noticed it had New Mexico on it and that is our destination in Ma4ch. Thanks and by the way totally enjoy your videos

[@margotd4060]

Is John using an App on his watch? If so what is it? Looks great!

[@FromShetoMe]

It comes on the Apple Watch. It’s called “activity”

[@tomfurlong5091]

quick question ,what kind of watch are you using for your hikes ?

[@FromShetoMe]

I use the Apple Watch because I also use the iPhone and often my watch for its remote camera functions.

[@angelacox1672]

Just a question…..What do you do if you come upon a mountain lion on one of your hikes?

[@FromShetoMe]

Mountain lions like to stalk so it isn't likely we would see them first. But the experts say you should fight back as hard as you can. A good reason to carry trekking poles and keep your head on a swivel. The real issue is if you are hiking with small children. Best to keep kids between adults. My brother was hiking in Montana with his kids once and a mountain lion was stalking them. He didn't know it until hikers behind him caught up and let him know. You can also carry bear spray if you are concerned.

[@garyarnett1220]

It used to be much easier to get to Holly. Maybe they discontinued the other trails?

[@any1butclinton]

Your Indian Country map is available on Amazon.
