What an exciting hike deep in Pagosa Country, heading north of town on Piedra Road. This hike leads down thru the amazing Piedra River area known as Wiemenuche Valley. Kick up your feet and enjoy the nature in front of you!
little closer look at the mighty Pedra
here
guys right on the edge of
this black slate Smitty might know about
that that's my brother brother we used
to fish here as kids
guys Mama go out there to go net them
and boy she steep in a hole seemed like
that hole was full of
fish all right guys here we are working
our way towards the bottom of this
Majestic P River
guys going enjoy every step once we get
to the bottom it'll come into more shade
right now you see how bright it is 300
days of sunshine out here in p
wow guys beautiful
Trail uh quite a few people know about
this particular spot but not many
people's really Venture down this far
you
know they think hiking for the Birds and
the
Bears you know all the creatures of the
Wilderness but when you get down to it
our souls need stuff like this as well
guys that's why I'm here to help bring
you there and then also encourage you to
get out there some of you can I
understand that and you know the Lord
knows and man I just wish someone could
just take you down to the edge of one of
these Creeks I'm glad I'm able to on
from today
because man it was so healing for my
late dad and just everybody that I know
this is therapeutic guys
right that you all can hear that you see
where the Shelf fell off it's like a a
soft shell underneath right there guys
so it's kind of falling off and revealed
some of the harder Rock underneath
we're in the wilderness guys I seen a
couple
chipmunk look like you put your name on
these walls over
here haven't seen any bears yet if I see
a bear though you'd be the first to know
if you watch that other channel where we
go to the ice caves in the same area
about a year ago um you'll see we did a
bear call and we we yelled out with the
bear call and man we def definely uh it
definitely works I mean it scared the
people more than the bear at the moment
but they weren't too thrilled we were
testing out our bear call but we did
test it on them and it worked pretty
darn
well all right again guys thanks for
being on this awesome Trail looks like
some people have been hiking up there
they've been uh they've been climbing
the
walls they got their gear to climb
so they're climbing the walls up there
that's awesome that's 40 50t
Wall we're going to go up these rocks
here guys you see there's a something in
the way the path go up and
over there's some pretty sweet slots up
here

a full of
water the bottom of that right

down all right I where we go guys here's
that blue spruce one more time guys and
there's the pine next to it right in the
center so you can see the huge dark
difference the color of the
blue just
magnificent all right guys here we are
back on the
trail it's just so good to be in
nature I don't think youall know what
does for the soul
but just the lack
of artificial vibrations in your life
man the city is just overgrown from guys

unreal but here we are step at a time
we're going to go up back down get
closer to that River I'm going to try to
take you to this
