Wait Until You See What I Found! - Upstream Adventure

[@JPVideos81]

Let me know what your favorite part was of this upstream adventure.

[@barbaragravely920]

I love it all and thank you for taking us on this great explore .Hands down i would just sit there and relax .

[@teresahelms1709]

Just to take a relaxing dip in any one of those little pools and to chill out in the gorgeous scenery with the sounds of nature all around me 🥰❤

[@doctordeath.5716]

I like all of this video so far

[@mimig5357]

I love all the parts of this beautiful stream! I would definitely enjoy swimming and just relaxing there at the natural swimming pool! Thank you for taking me along!!! Keep the videos coming!!! Look forward to every one!!

[@hiworldstephensonultranate290]

The Whole video is is not where sadly lots people don't get to so Unique d Whole Adventure Brian

[@Just1Nora]

Beautiful! Lots of winners in those photographs. I'm not physically able to get out and trek around right now due to my health, so watching videos like this is almost like being there myself. I miss getting out and just walking around and shooting. Definitely DO NOT touch the glass jars etc in the little hut; that's obviously drug paraphernalia and you don't want to be touching that! I'd have drowned the little fire as well. Whether you scared off someone doing drugs or camping they didn't build a proper fire pit, and it's not like there aren't enough rocks around, so it was dangerous to leave it smoldering especially in drought conditions, so you guys did the right thing.

[@SleeTheSloth]

Great video. Some really great nature shots. I love the rock cut dam. Out standing,.... in a creek!

[@lillieboulanger-potts2074]

Nature's beauty is beyond compare. God's creation is beautifully overwhelming! Thank you for sharing.

*So beautiful!! Reminds me of a creek me and my cousins found while exploring our grandparent's vast woods when we were kids. It was nice to take a dip when we were hot,and I even found a Native American spearhead! Great times as a kid* 🥰

Absolutely Outstanding First Nature Second that u utubed it n so many pools

[@WendyBray-tn1db]

loved the old homes so beautiful

[@MikeOrkid]

Glad you found the other waterfall. It's really nice when there's actual water flowing. Follow that little road up and around and it goes most of the way up the falls.

[@gaylebrodt676]

What an incredible place! You are so right, the landscape is absolutely gorgeous! When looking upstream I saw so many beautiful areas that have the appearance of a Bob Ross painting. One of my favorite things is listening to and watching the water cascading over the rock formations and land shapes and then turning into a waterfall. It's so hard to describe the beauty! Wonderful underwater footage and you looked like you were really enjoying that refreshing water, you sure got some awesome shots, just to name a couple, that was so cool when you were under that waterfall, the beautiful nature's carpet, and also looking up watching the water fall over and down the reservoir was so neat too. Not sure what that little building structure was, but that was cool too! Your photos are beautiful, as always! Amazing video JP, thank you!

[@JPVideos81]

A Bob Ross painting is a great comparison!

[@MargaretEllison2023]

my favorite? everything!!! except the fire! Thank y'all for putting it out!

[@marysimmons7502]

I spent years camping with my kids. Nothing is nicer than a forest like this. Super great discoveries! I have limited mobility myself now, but my goal is to get back out there soon. My poor soul craves the tree canopy and creek. Nothing clears the mind and lightens the soul better than a forest adventure. Than you so much!

[@JPVideos81]

My pleasure, thanks for watching

[@bvs9631]

Oh wow. Great scenery. I can tell u really like what ur doing. Great video shots great photos. Very peaceful there. I like how u show everything in n out of the water. My favorite was u playing n the waterfall. Also in the water. Cool. Love it!

My favorite part was when you say in front of that small waterfall. What a wonderfull paradise you found! I wish I could go there. Thank you so much for bringing your subscribers along!

[@bluebonnet1014]

What a beautiful place!

[@nancygermain2996]

Rivers & the such are my favorite bodies of water. I grew up with a river just beyond our backyard. Made my parents nervous but I loved every second of it. This was a great trip, I loved every second of it! The sound of a river is the best. Wished I could have jumped in right behind you. GOD gave us a truly beautiful world! Thanks for taking me along.

[@davidross5169]

Love your adventures, I can't get out much any more so I'm loving it.!!!

[@gigicostlow4414]

Loved the whole video but think my fave part was the under water video of the bubbles from the waterfall and you. Was so cool. Now you know what a fish in an aquarium sees when looking through the bubbles from an air stone. LOL I think it would be cool to see where that service road leads to. Thanks for taking us along.

[@JPVideos81]

Wonder if any fish were watching me in the bubbles haha

[@gigicostlow4414]

@@JPVideos81 Rofl!

[@drone521]

Looks to me that the large cast iron "thing" is a screen pot. Catches dirt and debris at the reservoir intake to prevent it from clogging the pipe. It would sit vertically inn regards to the pipe resting on the reinforced "x" cast in the bottom. Note that the shape of the associated piping resembles a trap....like used under sinks. Inside the pot is a removable screen basket. The top plate ( cap) provides access for cleaning

[@Kimberly-dt4ko]

Love this video. There were too many amazing sights to choose a favorite. Some of the shots at the swimming hole looked like it had interesting rock formations in it. Ended up being the reflection on the water. That looks like a great way to spend a hot day. Could the large pipe have been hooked up to the dam back before it was decommissioned? The shelter could have been a place for someone to stay while monitoring the dam during flood events and access the valves to increase flow so the dam wasn't topped? Or, could it have once held a streamflow gage to monitor output just below the dam? Thanks for taking us along on another of your wonderful adventures.

[@keithmiller3120]

That is very spectacular!!! Would have loved to been their out of all this heat… what a perfect place to cool off at…

I think they ought to be called 'Paradise Pools', cuz that's what they look like to me. 😍 Now, I am from Canada, and it is winter here . . . soooo, I may be a little biased. 🤣 Thank You to Dan for extinguishing the fire. 💚

Maybe... i plan on following the pipe to see where it ends.

It would be hard to pick a favorite 😊 seeing underwater is neat. I loved where you snorkled.. When young I walked our small creeks and streams, swam in them. Good ol days. Great video

I have always wondered but never took an interest in that orange stuff, but "as they say" now I know !

Absolutely beautiful! I am envious of your trip. The falls & pools look perfect. I'd love for you to investigate the water flowing from that hillside with what looks like caves.

[@robertmanley7556]

A truly amazing video and yes I would have gotten in there to cool off for sure !! Yes this would be so cool in the winter💥 SPECIAL REQUEST 💥 If you come back in the summer could you bring your drone !!! Wow so many iron deposits looks really cool with the green on the rocks !! A lot of rocks formations so so cool !! This place is wonderful coool underwater footage !! Thank you for that !! Ok what in the world was that in the bedrock a spinal column 😳 crazy !! What a building !! Ok the fire was odd wonder if you scared someone away. That pipe is HUGE WOW !! Check out the water fall !!! Those pictures at the end were fabulous !!! Great video as always !!!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks for your feedback and recommendations

[@debbie960]

I think the pools were awesome, I love seeing clear water and what's below. But my favorite was the damn and waterfall. For some reason that fails me, it makes me think of medieval days with its darkness and seems kind of homemade ❤️🙂

[@bobjones8372]

With a pipe that size, you will find the remains of a mill or processing plant, it was probably their main power source, doubt one that size was just for washing coal.

[@jontooke846]

Amazing video I love it thank you

[@toddburgess5056]

Thats a really neat section of forest near the stacked stone retaining wall.

[@killerdemocrate1]

Saw last video when you was alone and think you lost selfy stick.but I swear you walked past a structure you went in during other video cool.thanks for the hike .

[@paranoiarpincess]

I used to live in Haliburton Ontario and this reminds me so much of the thousands of acres up there. My front yard was on a decently sized lake and my backyard backed onto our street, with the forest on the other side. A forest so big you could definitely die in it if you got lost. I would go on short hikes into the woods, on paths people had previously made, but never really explored. Qhich was most definitely for my safety. Not only did I not have a feather's weight of wilderness training of any kind, I had gotten my hip replaced right after I had moved there (I was 19 and moved in with my grandparents so they could help me.) Anyway, there was a little stream right beside my house that came from somewhere in the woods, and emptied into the previously mentioned lake. Watching this is really making me wish I had followed that stream up to see if it opened up. I know for sure there were a couple of little pools not even a full minute from the road, but that forest is a little denser than the one you're showing us, and so it was a little more dangerous to stray from a path, even if the stream would work to prevent you from getting lost. It was so far from stagnant and so full of rocks that so long as it's summer, and I knew what I could and could not eat (my family and I had found both blue and raspberries on the outskirts of the woods more than a few times), that I could drink the water to keep alive at least a few weeks.

[@silvercash64]

Unbelievable !!!!!!!!!!

[@catherineengle4196]

I happened to wake up in a lot of pain...cancer sucks...and I started looking at my watch later Playlist and saw I had saved this video a while back. I am guessing about the time I had my cancer surgery. This place is so incredible. The sound of the water, the scenery and just the atmosphere is so incredibly beautiful. Have you thought of creating another YT channel that is centered around relaxation. I personally watch tons of relaxation videos that are scenic and have flowing water. If you made a relaxation channel you would blow other people's out of the water ( no pun intended) because of your attention to details in your videos. Close up shots of moving water, lots of location shots and the sound quality of the moving water really is impeccable.. My whole family watches relaxation channels because we all in some form or fashion suffer from insomnia. I have certain ones I watch but they don't get up close and personal. Each waterfall makes its own sound. Hearing various water sounds and showing the movement is what you are really good at. Just a thought. I would watch in a heartbeat. ✌

[@JPVideos81]

Thank you for the kind words. It's certainly something to consider for me. Hope the pain goes soon.

Love to know where that is? And yes, I have been hiking so many times and one place in AR had no swimming signed everywhere (national park) but I it was a waterfall and I had walked 4 miles and had to cool my body temperature down.

Awesome adventure JP! Very beautiful place! We have a few natural Sulfer wells in my area and they look orange like those you showed, some people actually drink it for the minerals, the water is clear but leaves that orange stain. It smells like rotten eggs though. I wonder where that pipe ends up at? Wonder if it's still used as a water supply somewhere. I bet it would be beautiful there in the winter! That old dam is beautiful! Thanks for bringing us along for the adventure!

I loved the step pools but was intrigued by the fossil looking spine on the rock….I wonder what that was?! Nice video, as usual. The water looked crystal clear! If you kept following the water source, I wonder where it’d take you?

Eventually it leads to an active reservoir. Thanks for coming along on this adventure.

[@doctordeath.5716]

Judging by the way that fire is smoldering, I say it been left like that for a hour or two hours at the most likely someone or a few people are camping there or there could be a run away person there.

[@coalcrackerchris]

Loved it!!! I think that might be a lokie road with the culverts under it. How far does the pipe go downstream past the mines?? Would be neat to see this area in operation....but mother nature does a great job redecorating!! Great vid as usual!

[@graugger5918]

Looking at the location on Google Earth it looks like a holiday home of some sort (won't provide the name for the sake of not giving away the location) was constructed up on the hill above between 1999 and 2005. At some point between 2005 and 2008 a creek next to the holiday home appears to have been dammed up to create a pond near the holiday home. It seems likely that the grassy access road with the culverts is related to the holiday home and pond up the hill. I imagine that the access road may have had a split off leading to the chain link fence you found by the dam; there's a paved road further away that goes by the holiday house where there's a fence and a large number of private property signs (at least from what I can tell by street view on Google Earth).

[@johnb.carpenter6862]

That place is so cool. Beautiful ! Hell yes I would jump in. I would love to camp and stay a couple days. I would respect it and leave no trace. No trash. ….I’m a little concerned, I don’t see other life in the pools. Where are the birds and squirrels and others. Take a water sample to test.

[@JPVideos81]

There were fish in the bottom of the spillway way. I caught one on camera, but it's hard to see.
