A daring adventure with two friends led us into a remote jungle where we discovered a huge complex of ancient ruins and cliff dwellings. This was a day we won't soon forget. #ancientdiscoveries #adventure #hiking #exploration #history #googleearth

  • I love that your content isn't saturated with music and your commentary is relaxed and natural, such a pleasure to watch, thank you.
  • @Everett-eh4nn
    I stumbled on this channel a month ago and I never looked back. Awesome narration with a very suitable voicenfor the job.
  • i used to do kooky/groovy stuff like this. but now i'm an old man in a wheelchair, so i have to "relive" vicariously through these videos. i love them. i can't stop smiling as i watch them.
  • @danwade2517
    I appreciated your respect of the surroundings, and the ancient history standing in front of you. You did this the right way.
  • What a place. Thanks for sharing these places I could never go. Glad you had friends with you. Always worry about your safety. You do an excellent job.
  • I'm now 77 years old and do remember when I explored. Now those days are passed, but this channel really brings back some memories. Thanks guys !
  • @doylecole
    Without giving away the location I am extremely impressed with the skill you and your friends have aquired through hard earned experience. Have you volunteered for the Arizona search and rescue team? 50 years ago I spent my summers in the Superstions, Catalina, Rincon, Mogollon, Salt River and Sedona Mountains and Canyons. The Dragoon and Cochise were my favorite. Yes, there are Ghosts in those lost places. Thank you for allowing the natural sounds to come through!
  • @paulahosford4885
    I was a tour guide to Mesa Verde and fell in love with the ruins. These are awesome! To be able to tour these ruins through your video means alot to me!😊
  • This 71 year old, former Grand Canyon hiker, loves your videos.
  • @s95033
    I would love to see an artist's rendering of what the structures looked like back when people lived in them.
  • Thank you for going places us older folk can no longer go. It is very interesting and love the footage.
  • @marionbruno1584
    French here ... I want to express my admiration for sharing your adventure in these incredible wild scenery. Top of the cake, this abandoned village, adobe, logs and stones, wich some of them volontarily choosen for their colors and shape ... Wow ! My mind was traveling threw the ages trying to figure how the life was at that time. Merci du partage
  • I just love your narration a your filming. Your voice is very calming an it reminds me of storytelling. It’s lovely to watch your adventures and the fascinating ruins. Thx
  • @whatgoesaroundcomesaround920 0 seconds ago I'm a 76-year-old retired teacher. I am impressed by your balanced presentation: the enjoyment of adventure, the respect for those who built these structures as well as for the structures themselves, the consideration for plants and animals who live where you venture, and your intelligent commentary. My adventures -- lo these many years ago -- were in Baja California, exploring mountains, and deserts with strange and wonderful plant life, rediscovering ruins of old missions and a town made of onyx, sleeping with the sound of the ocean in my ears. You will understand when I say that those times were when I was most alive. You feel it, too, I can see it in your face. Keep doing this, please!
  • I couldn't stop thinking about Reverand Mike, who lost his life by being pinned by a boulder that came loose. I just watched it yesterday and now I'm watching you walk amongst boulders and rocks. I really enjoy your videos. It's really fun to imagine how the people lived in those mountains and valleys, what they did for fun, why they lived so high up on the cliffs.
  • There are so many things that impress me with their construction. The design is very angular, that alnost reflected the shape of the rock wall in places; the complexity of the architecture itself; the use of stone that must have been worked to get them to the shape and size needed; and just how FLAT they were able to get the walls! It doesn't scream primitive in the slightest! It took some significant planning and execution!! Beautiful!
  • Now that I'm disabled from many years of working hard & playing hard ( Football, Fed Law Enforcement SRT, military SPEC OPS..) I can no longer do the many adventures I loved to do ( Its a shame really because I live in High BC Cascades..on a Indian Rez..where the mountains literally surround my home & tauntsme..) So I hope you dont mind that this Old Devil Dog lives his adventures vicariously through you Brother
  • It amazes me how much effort went into constructing the dwellings, which are still standing 800 years later. They are some of the best dwellings that ever you've shown us. Thank you for your effort to bring us this video. It was fascinating to watch!
  • @fugueine
    Thank you so much for capturing and sharing what most of us will never experience. Also thank you for leaving the ruins and rock art be; your respect and reverence for this place was heartening. May your journeys continue to be safe and exciting.
  • @Wasa9191
    Thanks for the discoveries that we don't normally see. Very interesting. No background music which is terrific. Don't need it!
