Good lord, the turquoise water combined with the green mossy rocks is mind blowing.

[@JesseStLouis]

Indeed it is paradise

[@Mylordsaves4324]

That water looks so inviting!!! Such beautiful turquoise water!

[@JesseStLouis]

@@Mylordsaves4324 it was such a special treat once the sun came out!!

[@farginargle]

Incredible, the stone walls are just magical. Thanks for sharing!

[@JesseStLouis]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@dsanchez9703]

That is so beautiful and so cool you could swim inthere bro. Happy seeing good people like you enjoy the World

[@JesseStLouis]

I'm so grateful that I get to share these places with you 🙌🤙

[@dsanchez9703]

​@JesseStLouis I'm not sure if I seen you visit that beautiful Havasu waterfall in Arizona, I hope to visit there myself some day, I've seen videos

[@JesseStLouis]

@dsanchez9703 I've been there but unfortunately it was early on when first started making videos and my shitty video did not do it justice.

[@dsanchez9703]

@JesseStLouis cool brother, maybe it's time to pay another visit it looks so beautiful brother!🙏🤜🤛

[@Grayhook1]

I hope you carry a Personal Locator Beacon. Catch you next time in Missing 411.

[@JesseStLouis]

[@juliandominicortega3713]

That place looks so magical and untouched by humans!

[@JesseStLouis]

So peaceful

[@markminer7390]

Should have a warning..."Don't try this without a wetsuit!" Freezing cold water up there and not for the faint hearted.

[@JesseStLouis]

There's only one person i can think of who'd try this without a wetsuit and she lives in Australia and only runs canyons in a bikini.

[@Ernie.Cantor]

Excellent video my dear Sir...

[@JesseStLouis]

Thanks Ernie!

[@DianeB-j9u]

Been to Mt Rainer many times but only in the winter. Amazing video. I’m glad Sam sets safety rules 💕

It's getting almost that time of year to do a hot springs junket for a few months. 😀

[@JesseStLouis]

Sounds nice

[@bearrage80]

For OZZY Rhodes You do not need a permit to be in the wilderness in Mount Rainier National Park. You can walk in the woods freely without a trail ya Karen

[@NativeTravellers]

sooo pretty that last shot is epic

[@JesseStLouis]

It was so good!!

[@RobertSmith-hq8ey]

Jesse thanks for all the great videos. I want to tell you that Cuivre River State Park here in East/Northeast Missouri is having the best color since you were in New Zealand during Covid.

[@JesseStLouis]

Thanks for the recommendation 🤙

[@rez99999]

i know of some excellent hidden gems around Mt Rainier

[@JesseStLouis]

Lots of good stuff

[@CH-vk6zy]

Thank you KZbin algorithm.

[@509trailblazers5]

If you in Washington next summer I can point you to some impressive hidden waterfalls. Great video

[@JesseStLouis]

Thanks

[@exploringthetributaries643]

I'm sure you can find some beeches around there if you look carefully 😂 Great to see you enjoying yourself in such an awesome environment!

[@JesseStLouis]

Thanks! 😃

[@PantsR4squares.]

I really want to get my start in canyoneering here in Western Washington. Any suggestions on where to learn locally?

[@JesseStLouis]

Wild Sky Adventures is a guide company that might offer classes too, not sure. The Mountaineers offer a course. There may be others. The Pacific Northwest Canyoning Facebook group is a good resource that might have some suggestions.

[@paulhatzig7084]

That is such beautiful adventure man! Can I ask what is the water temperature approximately?

[@JesseStLouis]

Not sure exactly but probably between 45-50°F

[@paulhatzig7084]

@@JesseStLouis Thank you so much! Hoping to visit PNW one day and I agree with you it does seem to have similar features as New Zealand!

[@turnnburn9008]

so siiick, thx for sharing

[@annenglish2935]

Haven't seen you post for awhile ... I grew up in Seattle and loved it!!! Lots to enjoy outdoors!!! Perfect for Jesse!!! 🎉 😂 ❤ Thanks from a California friend ❤

[@JesseStLouis]

Washington is amazing

[@nature_exploring]

I'm loving these! Those jumps at 3:30 and 3:50 ... look awesome! Those pools remind me of the pools at Bear Creek neat Switzer Falls, but much larger!

[@JesseStLouis]

Yes, it's a playground just like that area

[@Kewlstickers]

Jesse what a cool KZbin channel you have really like that secret beach it must’ve been freezing

[@JesseStLouis]

It sure was!! But usually the most beautiful water is also the coldest, but it is worth it

[@rameylewis7730]

I understand why your wife requires that helmet!!! LOL You're a crazy dude!!!

[@JesseStLouis]

🤙

[@rameylewis7730]

@@JesseStLouis I've climbed all over the Northwest and Andes Mtns. I used to jump into the water after work at Elk River Falls. You weren't too far from me making this video. If you ever want to visit Elk River Falls just drive a bit east from Mtn. Rainier to Elk River Idaho and then you'll be in my neck of the woods. Lots of high Mtn Lakes and there's three main jumps into Elk River Falls. Very similar to this video except you can catch fish in the waters here. Stay Safe!!

Those white shoes you are wearing aren't as nice as those blue shoes you wore in the past

[@JesseStLouis]

The blue ones are a little less durable but they'll be coming back soon

[@OzzyRhodes]

Mt Rainer is a national park and a designated U.N. biosphere. You are not supposed to go off designated trails or roads and go tromping thought the forest like that. Please follow the rule while in the park,outside the park it's totally fine as long as you're not on private property.

[@JesseStLouis]

Wilderness areas in National Parks are not the same as developed tourist areas in National Parks. There are different rules for different areas.

[@OzzyRhodes]

@@JesseStLouis Unless you have a special permit you are not supposed to be out in forest. That's why they made the park reservation only now, To many people wandering around where they're not supposed to be. I want you to be able to enjoy the national park just be respectful and follow the rules.

[@JesseStLouis]

@OzzyRhodes i do follow the rules. You don't not know ALL the rules. Do mountaineers or rock climbers always stay on a trail? This is canyoneering or canyoning a sport that you are apparently not familiar with. No rules were broken.

[@OzzyRhodes]

@@JesseStLouis Hey Jesse look this up on google[ can you wander off trails in mt. rainier national park ]

[@OzzyRhodes]

@@JesseStLouis If it's allowed you still need a permit.

[@ryanstewart1521]

Too many people walking off the trails in Mt Ranier destroying the habitat, and that joke of an anchor will have have search and rescue looking for you. Not impressed.

[@JesseStLouis]

There's no trails here. This isn't some tourist area. And you have no idea what a good anchor is.

[@ryanstewart1521]

@@JesseStLouis exactly your not walking on a trail and you should be. I’ve volunteered countless hours at Mt. Ranier working on trails hoping people will stay on them.

[@JesseStLouis]

@ryanstewart1521 there's no trails in this area. It's cross country wilderness.

[@shawnobra]

Calm down karen.

[@bearrage80]

Whaaaaaawhaaaaaaa its not your mountain Karen. Stay down at the visitor center with your subaru where You hippies belong.
