In this video I visit a number of really amazing and under-the-radar places that, unfortunately, I can't really give you specific details about—for good reason.

  • As a National Park Ranger, we do not tell people about sensitive locations either. A few times we have only for cultural reasons (like someone who is a member of a certain tribe being able to visit their ancestral peoples’ landmarks).
  • I really respect your decision not to identify locations. Indigenous cultures have had so much taken from them already.
  • @SusanAfter60
    Thank you for NOT telling the locations of those treasures. You are always so entertaining and informative while sharing your adventures with us.
  • @mikemanjo2458
    Thank you for protecting these incredible sites. It is beyond me why people would want to destroy these treasures and yet, I know they do. Thanks for sharing but keeping it protected. Awesome trip. Jane in SC❤🙏
  • @robberrt0
    I saw all these places and more when I resided in the Eastern Sierra some years ago. I never tell of these places. I still have a home there and visit occasionally, although Arizona has been my main place of stay for sometime now. Heritage sites are priceless and require respect for the cultures that they belong to.
  • @sharondavis8003
    Great idea not to show the locations!! I cringe to think of someone with a paint spray can ruining history as they have already ruined our statues & artifacts elsewhere. I LOVE historical things & hopefully some will survive. Great video as always, Tristan. 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️
  • @LostOnLandAgain
    I can't imagine how many times you walk somewhere, go back and set camera up then walk away then walk back (or climb). Not to mention all the gear you bring along (love the drone shots) Your effort is greatly appreciated. (12:22 seriously epic shot)
  • Sometimes it is perfectly OK to keep the locations to yourself! You've done the research to find them, just handing them over to the public just makes it easier for those places to to become overcrowded or over used. I am a lot like you, some call me selfish but I want my vacation times alone and things all to myself.
  • @diannabrown7754
    Would it not be awesome to know what story the rock was trying to tell us. A page out of history.
  • That is one of the most beautiful snd in tact petroglyphs I’ve ever seen. That is incredible. Thanks for posting this.
  • @Forty_DS
    Not annoying at at all. If people aren't motivated enough to do their research to find places like this, they aren't going to appreciate and respect these places properly when they visit. Your videos allow a lot of people a chance to enjoy these out of the way places who might not have the means or ability to see them any other way. Thank you for doing that.
  • @coldspring624
    The beauty of SUV camping is adventure and finding out of the way places. Flocking to known sights leaves me feeling a little less adventurous. So I like that you choose to keep the location to yourself
  • @sc2020
    Tristan , awesome locations as always. I love traveling and exploring as well. Some places are better off being kept a secret 😁 Good job 👍
  • Site 4 looks like a strategy. The round symbols represent areas that groups of hunters would strategically position themselves. These were hunter/gathering times. To survive you had to hunt. I imagine the rocky area was central headquarters where decisions were made and plans communicated. Yes, keep the spots under the radar. These spots are stunning, sacred, to be protected! Thanks for your wonderful work. I will never see these areas so I appreciate learning about them. They are truly awe inspiring. You are an excellent narrator and presenter and videographer-a one man wonder! Thanks.
  • @SDck5940
    That wonderful rock art has got to be a map. We don't know the vocabulary to decode it. But it has "map" all over it.
  • @SUVRVing
    Thanks for watching! In case you missed it, on Tuesday I put out a video tour of a great camping setup in a Chevy Suburban. Check it out! https://youtu.be/HvIm6W6Md_g -Tristan
  • @norsefalconer
    Thank you Tristan. We borrow these things from future generations. They are only ours to enjoy, not destroy. Unfortunately, there are some very small people that don't understand. I will always support and defend your decision not to share these locations, and appreciate you sharing them with us virtually.
  • @josephclark8946
    Good work Tristan on protecting these sites. Please keep doing what you’re doing. Thanks, I look forward to your next video.
  • @mikekeller8871
    Great video. It’s disturbing that people will actually harm these historical places. Thank you for sharing and preserving these important sites.
