Hey you guys
Thanks for joining me on another journey. We're here at Capitol Reef. It's our last day
So we didn't get the four to eight inches of snow
But we did get a nice dusting so it's going to make for a little bit different view today, so we're on the Cassidy
Arch Trail which was named after Butch Cassidy the famous outlaw that
lived in these parts back in the day I
got hob-a-long Cassidy with me
Rock formations where the water is just gouged into these rocks and created like baby arches
I wonder how long it's taken you know like how many thousands I think Millions
Where's Ranger Emily now when we need her Right, Ranger Emily, we need you
Definitely not handicap accessible
But
it's really cool for the fact that it's
totally in nature I
Think this is one of my favorite parks of the National Park. Just it really is left very much as
natural as possible with the dirt roads and
the trails that are not
perfect
Don't fall down. Ok careful. watch the boulder I know that's what I saying. Go, move, move, move
Yeah want that to follow somebody no, that's why I'm saying that was crazy look how loose this thing is
Gotta be careful when you're out here Speaks to me, and it says I'm dead, but I'm still alive look I've been twisted
I've been mangled I've been bent I've been broken, but I am still standing
And look at the different colorations. I have and in some ways my beauty has just shifted
One thing I wanna point out when they're here at the Capitol Reef the way
They actually make the trail so you stay on the trail. They slay out rock formation, so you follow the actual path
So you're not really hurting the environment running all over the place
You know going on the unmarked trails of course
But you know always try to stay to the path
We're on our way back from the Cassidy arch Figured I'd kind of show you the trail
Joining me on this journey through Capitol Reef National Park. It's been a fun couple days of
exploring around and doing different hikes and seeing what the
Capitol Reef National Park actually has to offer which is absolutely amazing you guys need to get out here and check
It out he can fly into Vegas
From anywhere in the country pretty much anywhere in the world cuz Vegas will subsidize flights anyway. Just get you there to gamble pick up
Four-wheel drive there. I don't really suggest seeing this one in a little two-wheel drive car
You'll be limited to what you can see in places that you can get to so
Pick up that rental car drive out here
You can stay in a couple of little towns that are nearby if you do it in the offseason
It's really affordable if you wait until summer it will be hot out here and those prices will go up
We're on a different trail now decided to try to find out where Butch Cassidy
had
His hideout and we believe it's in this wash. I mean obviously I'm not a history person
I'm not for sure and this is actually an unnamed trail that we're on
Let me just double check there might be a little bit more trail here
Yeah, it's still here damn. It is. That's why it's a hideout
This is the trail
Act like a monkey in Boulder hop
I
Think we actually found the real trail I might of not had the actual trail
But I'm pretty sure
You can get a horse through this part. I
Could totally imagine Butch Cassidy hanging out here
This would be an awesome
Hideout no one would ever find him no wonder he outlawed
I'm probably one of the most extreme hikes I've ever done this trail. Just goes all over the place
That's down there and around
We're not a hundred percent sure but they say butch Cassidy's
actual hideout was in this canyon somewhere and
This is kind of an unmarked trail
But people have clearly been going on it, but it's definitely an advanced trail for sure
that's a lot of straight up and down sandy hills, and if you're
Not experienced don't have the right equipment. You probably shouldn't attempt this
That means this 45 year old guy shouldn't be out here either
but
Too bad I got to go do it
I'm thinking this would be butch Cassidy's
Hideout if I was him this is where I'd hide out no one would ever get back here to him
Plenty of room for nice sleeping bag to get in here I had to scurry down all these rocks
Cruising along those different trail there's actually kind of a trail there
At least saw other footprints made me believe that it was
Some kind of a trail but to be back here in this wash is absolutely amazing
Check this out this is insane
This is the actual trail
Oh my god. It's amazing. Oh
My god guys look at this we're in a cavern this has got to be his hideout. Oh my god
This is definitely yet
keeping from shelter
April I
Found his hideout
You got to come here and check it out see this smooth trail with all the millions of footprints Oh well why haven't we been taking that
Because You wanted to go the hard way I did, that's what you said I said
Please request the hard way
Now tell me this is not his hideout
Holy cow Right
It gets taller in here
My pack is
But
See look you can stand up in here
He could burn a fire
And keep it nice and toasty in here
It'll be windy and
Look, it's comfortable in here. This is the perfect hideout if I was Butch Cassidy this would be it
holy cow
It's amazing now
Right, this is so cool. Yeah, because you keep thinking
You know these other little
Things always the spots that you've filmed out along the way yeah
But this is it this is it like 100% this would be it if I was him this would be it
Yeah, because he can sleep in here comfortably. It's out of the element whether it's in the summer. It's cool in the winter
It's cool
And he's so far back in the woods
Who the heck is ever gonna find this guy yeah, but I mean would you really want to live on the run like that?
Walk On the rock yes, not as slick as that Trust your boots That's why you wear hiking boots
