You've just put this one on top of my Moab visit list. Just stunning presentation and scenery. Well done yet again!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Awesome, thank you! You'll have a spectacular day! Karl 👍

[@robertjaycox8488]

That was cool as hell.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Thanks Brother! Having moved nearby Arches heads way more to offer than I realized!

[@robertjaycox8488]

Yes, we need to get back to southern Utah again. Great area. @@KarlDeckerPresents

Another incredible video and adventure together! I'm hoping to tag a few13ers & 14ers this year. I've been watching more of your climbs here in the front range. Of course I could never take the routes you do but your videos show the incredible beauty of all the peaks around and I want to have that experience. I have completed a few 12ers but ran out of time in 2023 to do anything higher. Your climb of Little Bear to Blanca Peak had me on edge. Of course if I'm watching your video I know it was a successful climb.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Hey thanks very much, appreciate the comment! Looks like some crazy cold is headed out way soon. Great time to start planning for some climbs, even though it's some months away. Best of luck this year! Karl 👍

[@georgemitchell1980]

Thanks for the great video! We did the FF today. I’m 70, my wife is 69, and we completed it, but took 3 1/2 hours due to missing one small rock wall arrow, resulting in a one hour “lost detour”. This was our first time in the FF and we did the self guided hike. Definitely doable. The entire hike is essentially one big rock scramble.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Of course my pleasure! Congrats on your successful trip, hey you did better route finding than most, great place! Karl 👍

[@Miderguy_]

I enjoyed this Arches series. It's a great place to hike and especially in the winter. Well done Karl.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Glad you enjoyed it! This is a very compelling hiking and scenic wonderland, had to share it! Thank you🙏🙏. Karl

[@drone_boss]

When you said how many times you guys got lost, I said to myself “I’m not the only one”! Great video!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Ah yes my friend! Anyone who claims they did an honest exploration in there, and say they DIDN'T get lost (maybe disoriented?) isn't being truthful LoL!! Appreciate it 👍, Karl

[@lynnnorthrup8914]

Thanks for sharing. I have done it twice and think it is the most fun hike in Arches. Got a kick out of you getting lost. So did we until we figured out the little arrows. Glad you shared the adventure with your wife to keep you in line and out of trouble. 😀👍

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Sure thing Lynn, yes my wife keeps me in line the best she can! We both really enjoyed the day, one of the really amazing hikes I've done. Will probably go back in a month or so and explore a few different twists and turns. Thanks again 👍

[@rob010976]

My wife, son and I hiked the Fiery Furnace in July of 2017. We had to wait three days until we could get a permit secured but what an experience! It was awesome and I would love to get back out there from Georgia to do it again maybe it the winter. We went unguided so we could take our time and explore. My son at the time was 13 at the time and short of a couple of sketchy parts the route was a blast. I would certainly avoid it if raining.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

I could see it being sketch in the wet, good advice. Hope you get the chance to get back out there soon! Appreciate the comment, Karl 👍

[@ExploringGodsCreation]

Another great video Karl! Thank you sir, looks like an amazing place to visit!

[@edmiller999]

Your cinematography is just unmatched. I cant wait for some more San Juan content! Please put arrow peak on the calendar!!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Hey, big thanks for the comment! I had Arrow on the docket for last season but the weather didn't cooperate. Going to get her in '24. Please share a favorite with a couple friends, thanks, Karl 👍👍!

[@PilotEJ401]

I agree 💯 percent!

[@Theninjaonthemountains]

great video brother like always, I am super exited to be there in a couple weeks

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Hey thanks again my Brother, appreciate you!! Karl 👍

[@piotr-lt4zz]

Awesome videos of Arches NP! Winter is the best time to visit. Continue your great work!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Yes! Thank you and so thankful to have these winter adventures close to home! Karl 👍

[@PilotEJ401]

So deeply enjoyed that Karl and Andie, you guys did the Furnace justice, great composition!! Going to watch again tonight, thanks 🙏🙏! Amazing place

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Really appreciate it my friend 😊, personally the Furnace struck a chord with me. Quite amazing and humbling at the same time!

[@markjeffries5966]

Beautiful video. Great overheads. Thanks to Alice Ford for your channel suggestion.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Huge Thanks! I have been a fan of Alice's forever, cool to think she a fan of mine as well. I'm curious where did you saw her suggestion?

[@markjeffries5966]

It was in a video that popped up on KZbin this week, in which she explained why she would be posting less in the near future. @@KarlDeckerPresents

Absolutely fantastic Karl !! 🙂

Very pleased, many thanks Petr 👍👍!

Like a giant maze. So beautiful and enthralling! What is the make and model of your wife’s pants? Those look great for scrambling and rock climbing… 👍

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Thanks again my friend, THAT is a very unique set of formations... I'll ask her about the pants and shoot off another reply. Karl 👍

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

They’re an older discontinued model from mamut. She got them from sierra trading post a few years ago. It is crazy how expensive they are these days. . . Cheers

[@papajon62]

@@KarlDeckerPresents. Thanks, Karl! I’ll check them out. And yes, things are crazy expensive! Sometimes I look for good used stuff to offset this hobby

[@elevatedarchives]

Dang I so wanna go! 😮

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

A wonderous set of formations, you wouldn't be disappointed.

Very cool. Put on my list for the next visit to Arches

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

You should! Absolutely unique area, you won't regret it 👍

[@enchiladasmith014]

Karl, once again! This is my favorite adventure spot of all time. Used to get the annual permit for the Furnace, no video ect.. spent months collectively inside there exploring and finding new things everytime. Thank you again for sharing!!!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

That is awesome! Spending time in there, can't imagine it would ever get old... thanks again 👍, Karl

[@enchiladasmith014]

@@KarlDeckerPresents if you keep working around " the top of furnace" to the east past the entrance to Lomatium there is amazing exploration. Many sun up to sun down travels in the Furnace, many backtracking miles only to find another alternative exit. Man I love Utah!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

I did research the limited info on canyoneering Lomatium, found waypoints on alltrails and tried to draw a route. I would love to do that! Would you ever want to get out there with me?@@enchiladasmith014

[@enchiladasmith014]

@@KarlDeckerPresents Absolutely. I plan on being up there mid May backpacking The Maze and exploring Needles further. How was getting permit? I haven't been in there for a couple years.

Amazing!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@alexandersperber2368]

How do you use Google earth topo like that? Is it as simple as downloading Google earth?

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

I use it online simply going to Google Earth through my browser and then record all my points in a project and play it back as a slideshow. Then I usually change up the speed a little in my video editor. It’s quite a process to be honest, but using Google Arista brows around is great.

Hi! What map did you use? Alltrails or Fatmap or other? thanks!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

All trails was useful, use it religiously on this one, if I had used it more I would have realized I missed Skull arch!
