Valley of the Gods + the most epic river spot!

[@alisonmockli]

Wow, Carter, you blew me away. Moo is just amazing as she goes through water and up mtns. Your video was amazing. It is so cool to use a drone to get some of your shots. You added the right music to enhance your video. I'm so glad I know you. You are such a wonderful person. I'll continue to watch and wait patiently for your next video. Congratulations on your engagement. ❤

[@cartermoses4136]

you’re awesome yourself. Miss you, and will let you know when I come visit!!

[@din5ixfg]

Heeeck yeah!! Stunning 🌄🎶 The cow visit 😄 Love that you had some light adversity, too 🌬️

[@cartermoses4136]

I actually had to delete the best drone footage, so definitely had some adversity with this trio. Learning a lot with the editing and will get better over time. Thank you for watching

Carter!!!!! Amazing! Makes me miss Arizona. Thank you for sharing!!!!

[@cartermoses4136]

More to come!

Such a beautiful place... I encountered wind like that as well when I was in that same area around Goosenecks. Thankfully Valley of the Gods was calm the next day and made for an amazing ride. Thank you for sharing your adventure!

[@cartermoses4136]

The wind was crazy for sure, but that’s the risk you take with overlook spots like that. Thank you for the comment and sharing your memories. I’m so pumped a video I made brought you back to your memories!! I will keep making more

[@frasitopoquito4144]

I have spent several days camping in the VOTG on a couple of occasions, it's a long drive from my home (Vancouver, British Columbia) but well worth the trip. Thanks for the video, it was great to rekindle old memories.

[@cartermoses4136]

Oh my goodness you have absolutely made my day with this comment. The fact that I can do this for you and some others gives me happy tears. I will continue to create videos to inspire others!!! If you're ever wanting to explore AZ or want someone to join you let me know haha. I am always looking to go out and make more memories

Well done, was there a couple years ago and had a blast. Thanks for sharing.

Looks awesome, I've been by there a few times, but never left the highway. Going to to have to consider it in the future.

[@cartermoses4136]

You definitely have to check it out!! The road is very easy and any car can do it

[@douglasdever6134]

Moki Dugway and the valley of the gods. House on fire. How about Riverhouse? Lived in Moab for seven years. Great places to visit. Also a similar goosenecks river bend just below Dead Horse Point on the Potash road; which connects inside Canyonlands (Island in the Sky District) to a better switch back than Moki Dugway....Shafer Trail.

[@cartermoses4136]

I actually am going to go back and create another video because there’s so much out there. I really want to check out the river house next time!! Also I’ve been to the gooseneck you’re referring to and it’s so amazing. I’m also going to Moab in a few weeks and we will be right by there. This area in general is so amazing and endless amount of adventure, many more videos to come. Thank you for the comment and watching!

[@jimf.625]

Great video.

Would love to see a video on your softtop setup.

I was actually thinking of showing a little video fo when we got it stock and getting the topper on. I will for sure make a video of our set up in the soft topper!!

Awesome area. Is that a Tacoma with a 6 foot bed?

[@RoadLifePursuits]

What is the legality of the use of a drone there?

[@cartermoses4136]

Great question, I always search the areas for hours before I go to know. The simple answer is this is all BLM land and that means you’re good to fly as long as you’re respectful of course. I use Gaia a mapping app that tells you private land, BLM, wilderness, and everything you would need to know, you can also use it offline to always know what land you’re on. I highly recommend getting your drone certification, the test will teach you so much in what you need to know before you fly

[@cartermoses4136]

I chose this spot specifically for BLM land, as I didn’t have to worry about drone flying legalities

[@z500zag]

Maybe you purposely aren't sharing gps coordinates, roads or locations... if not on purpose, I know I'd appreciate some type of general location info. Looks like your overlook was somewhere near Goosenecks overlooking San Juan River, but not clear 🤷‍♂️

[@cartermoses4136]

I use Gaia for finding epic spots, then double check on google earth and see the 3d view. Try it out and I know you can find this spot. If you can't after a while reach out to me again!!

[@thomza]

@@cartermoses4136 still can’t find that overlook spot at 12:35. Where is that? Also, what drone are you flying with that took that wind like a champ?

[@cartermoses4136]

@@thomza It is with the dji mini 3 pro, but I had to edit a ton out as the gimble would turn almost sideways depending on how the wind hit the drone. Still I have crashed that drone more than 30+ times and its still working haha. Find me on instagram and I will DM you

[@thomza]

@@cartermoses4136 That's good to know. I have a mini 3 Pro and the original mavic air. I usually pull out the mavic air when the wind is high due to it being heavier and more stable. Plus if I lose the mavic air I won't feel as bad.

[@cartermoses4136]

@@thomzaI am looking at getting another drone for the high wind conditions. Do you know much about the air 3? I want the mavic 3 but the air 3 is way cheeper

*Excellent video! I'm planning to go there in July. I sent you a message on instagram, hope you share the coordinates of this place*

[@adrianmartinez7170]

And yet you couldn’t provide coordinates or the route you took for future travelers

[@cartermoses4136]

Hey man, I am trying to inspire you to go find spots like this the right way. I have had a lot of people give me a hard time not giving the area away. The whole process/experience is to be inspired and get out on your own adventures. If you really want that spot you will find it just by searching the general area of my video. You man not like my response, but if you google earth the areas you will find way more potential than you ever thought was out there. To me this is a special thing and you can inspire yourself doing this.
