Your video helped me to flashback 50 years..I lived with my family in Page Arizona in 72 and 73 when I was 12 and 13. We used to camp out at Lake Powell all the time. We toured the Grand Canyon and traveled the Colorado River to Lake Mead also. We lived at Indian Springs Nevada prior to living in Page and we used to do a lot of camping and boating on Lake Mead and the Colorado River. I'll never forget my uncle and I catching 10 Rainbow Trout in 30 minutes flat from the river. Each one weighed over 10 lbs. We ate good and had a lot of fun. Life doesn't get much better than that. 🍷😎👌

[@WereintheRockies]

What fun memories. Thanks for watching.

[@user-sg2lo9fq8k]

Its ok , you can always come back ❤❤❤😂

[@user-yg9ij2le4u]

I lived there at that time also and was the same age. We probably know each other.

[@user-sg2lo9fq8k]

@@user-yg9ij2le4u I moves here I summer 76 the lake was filling up the creatures were crawling out of the canyoms.

[@jerrymaes9471]

Thank you for the honest opinions. We are doing monument, antelope, south coyote buttes in July …. It will be hot. I know, but the only time that works for our schedule.

[@WereintheRockies]

Have fun.

[@steviejd5803]

Tick tick tick, we cannot get enough of Arizona.

[@user-sg2lo9fq8k]

Good channel 😂 I live here.😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@erinbroderick2819]

I went to Glen Canyon Dam. I liked that were several places that you could look at the dam.

[@princevarughese6419]

Thank you for this very informative video

[@WereintheRockies]

You're welcome!

[@FlyWestavecMD]

I totally agree with Sheryll, all the beauties on Earth are to touch our hearts...not our purses😢Thank you so much for your videos : a big help that made our dream come true last september : a 3 weeks trip through 7 states (including Utah ❤), 9 national parks and recreation areas and niw my own channel on you tube, Fly West . You inspired me so much😊.Hi from France! Marie-Do

[@WereintheRockies]

You are so welcome! and that's awesome!

[@narcisogarcia8112]

Great video and content. Great job!!

[@WereintheRockies]

Much appreciated!

[@myatlantictravel]

We visited Page 3 weeks ago and the temperature was still very cold. Advantage was that there were not that many people and even with the high prices for Antelope Canyon we very much enjoyed the tour through the lower canyon.🙂🙂👍👍

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing!

[@hmos1855]

So cool, thank you!

[@WereintheRockies]

Our pleasure!

[@franjojanes]

If you are looking for a fantastic canyon hike with some mild scrambling, I would recommend the Cathedral Wash. It's on the way to Lee's Ferry.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thans for the recommendation!

[@mr2fyre]

We just did lower antelope and it was $66 per adult and $35 per child, total for four with all fees and taxes was $244. A bit steep but worth the price. I don't know if they have dynamic pricing, but i recall when i was first looking seeing prices that would have put it near $400 for the four of us. Overall, I would say the experience was worth the money. The pace of going through the canyon was a little fast for me, like i felt like i had enough time to take the pictures but not enough time to take in the canyon. I look at it as a 1 time thing. We also did horseshoe bend and it was nice but windy, so we were getting hit by sand and small pebbles at times, which was a little unpleasant. If it is windy wear long pants. We stopped at Glen Canyon dam also. The visitor center is open, Thursday-Monday, closed Tuesday and Wednesday. We were there on Tuesday and Wednesday, so we missed out on that. We went out on the rocks by the "The Chains" trail (just east of Glen Canyon Dam, also near "Hanging Gardens Trail") . That was a lot of fun climbing around the rocks and exploring. I climbed up pretty high on the rocks and had a great view of Lake Powell. Better view than the Wahweep overlook. For our trip we started in San Jose, CA visited Zion, Bryce Canyon, Horseshoe bend, Antelope Canyon and Grand Canyon in that order. One thing that is a must do when out in the middle of nowhere like this is to look at the stars. They are amazing on clear nights with no moon. Overall, I would visit Zion and Bryce again, Grand Canyon and Horseshoe bend were more of checking the box off, and Antelope is in the cost to much to visit again category. Bryce and Zion should be on everyone's must visit list.

[@lorddantan]

do you happen to have a link to the Antelope Canyon tour you took? All of my searches came back $100 per adult, talk about steep price, they also add other fees on top of the $100 😏

[@lorddantan]

Hi mr2fyre, thanks so much for your reply! I just booked the tour of Lower Antelope Canyon with the company you mentioned. I don't know why it's not shown here. It is clearly deleted by people here 😏

[@WereintheRockies]

Thank you for sharing your experience! Glad you had a great time.

[@hellokitty2848]

I’ve been to Horseshoe Bend, but this video has a lot of great info! I agree, Antelope Canyon is expensive tho.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for watching!

[@Hoakaloa]

Antelope Canyon is within the Navajo Nation. I think it is perfectly correct that we have to pay to visit, given the history (easily accessible facts). All of "our" national parks are part of lands that were known to, respected by and occupied by the people who were here before European colonists arrived. If one does not want to pay to visit then one can rent a kayak, paddle to the mouth of the canyon and hike in.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing and watching.

[@louisco3603]

I completely agree but upwards of $100 per person is a bit extreme. The average family of 4 does not want to spend $400 on just one activity.

[@norbertzezewske1026]

Ich schau mal vorbei , auf dem Weg nach Durango!✌

[@mitzirz9885]

You stated that Lee's Ferry is the only place to drive to Colorado River until Las Vegas. I just watched a video and found on Google Maps that you can drive to Diamond Creek Beach on the Colorado River and located north of Peach Springs on Rte 6 N, just an FYI.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing.

[@elg3eco]

Have you seen Canyon X - because its cheaper....

[@franjojanes]

And less crowded as less people know about it. Last August I just walked in with no reservation and there was a free spot.

[@WereintheRockies]

We have not personally seen it...yet. Hopefully someday.

[@franjojanes]

@@WereintheRockies Got to leave something for next time. :)

[@GoldMember995]

there is still covid at this time in the USA? (arril 2023)

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes, it is still hanging around. Places don't require you to wear a mask anymore.

[@GoldMember995]

@@WereintheRockies OK... Thanks!

[@HardRockMaster7577]

Great Photography !!! But... the background music is distracting and, imo, unnecessary.

[@rickzw67]

Masks out in the wilderness away from people , the crazies are in control.

[@cyndi795]

Boo hoo. You lost me when you complained about spending $60. It is Navaho land. Not part of the United States. You are essentially visiting another country. You should feel privileged to be allowed to even see it. I had a long conversation with a local Navajo women and poverty is rampant. Tourism is a large part of what sustains the tribe. Be respectful of their need to make a living. This is so disappointing.

[@WereintheRockies]

We understand that tourism is a large part of what sustains the tribe and we are grateful they share the canyon. However, we aim to help viewers make an educated decision when deciding if they want to visit Antelope Canyon or not. Many people LOVE Antelope Canyon and we love it!
