Through free solo climbing and hiking, they investigate the site's layout, including granaries and painted rooms, while engaging their audience to help identify mysterious symbols and rare green paint.
On this adventure I free solo climb up ancient stairs built right into the cliffs
to some of the strangest ancient structures I've ever seen in America.
They were all abandoned 700 years ago but why are they running to the cliffs?
Today I hike in and investigate.
Morning guys, the adventure has already started.
Found a stone tool.
Would you guys please help me identify this and maybe comment what it was used for?
Comment right now, I will reply to all the comments on this video.
Thanks for joining guys, we're gonna find all kinds of wild stuff today.
There's pottery upon the millions around here.
Flakes, pottery, stone tools of every color.
But we're gonna go see some ancient ruins, so let's go.
Alright guys, we have arrived.
Look over here.
Comment right now, give me some advice on what you guys want to see the most.
I'm very new to YouTube.
I have almost 500,000 followers on TikTok.
But I'm pretty new to this YouTube thing and I'd love your guys' advice.
Look at that beautiful work of art.
Let's go check it out.
Might be some petroglyphs, might be a storm coming in.
Let's go see if there's any petroglyphs.
Oh yeah, right away.
Got the spiral, the portal.
Whatever this is.
Comment now if you know what that is.
Some animals.
Oh yeah, all over.
It's like having birth.
All over the walls.
Here's these warning lines.
Never seen how they're that high up.
More spirals, more random men.
Comment which one you guys like best.
Kind of like this mysterious one.
It's got a big belly.
Would you guys help me out on the dates on those if you know?
Look at this, they even made cute little steps.
All the grinding stones.
Right here was a cool little granary.
They even made little steps to the top.
They probably had a wall here and could only reach down from the top.
All kinds of grinding marks.
Oh, you can go right under there like a cave.
It's very cave-like.
More petroglyphs.
That is weird.
Let's climb down, see the mysteries.
Look at that, they had their own natural stone wall.
They could peek out, shoot arrows.
Look how far under that goes.
You can tell there's been hundreds of looting.
The whole thing is covered in pits.
So someone dug the whole thing out.
That's unfortunate.
This is the most beautiful one I've seen with natural stone wall.
Beautiful protection.
Little petroglyphs everywhere.
I love the spirals.
So glad I have so many open-minded followers.
You guys comment whatever you want and I'll reply.
I love curious people.
This is so cool.
Wall right on top of it.
Beautiful fortress.
Wow.
Yeah, unfortunately there's huge, huge pits all over.
Could be natural or they could have done it for sleeping or whatever.
But pretty sure it was looted.
Wow, look at all these grinding stones.
Think how long it took just to grind all their corn and stuff there.
Here's a cool spot, probably for water collection.
Another one here.
Amazing spot.
Little plants growing under.
You can see all the grind marks.
Little piece of corn.
Picture that.
This is a thousand years old.
Someone was sitting here eating.
If you guys haven't yet, please subscribe.
That pushes my videos to more audience.
And I'll show you more mysteries like this.
I'm going to be posting hundreds of these adventures.
Plus I'm going to be going to Egypt, Peru, all over the world.
This was a huge house here.
Really cute little house here.
What a work of art.
Tiny little room.
Sorry guys, the sun does that to me every time.
One room, two room, three room, four room.
Oh, cool.
I almost didn't notice that.
The walls were all painted.
That one's like black, red, nothing in between.
Black, red, black, red.
Ah, cool.
There's even a little guy there.
That is beautiful.
So I would imagine all the walls were painted, colored.
That is amazing.
We still get to see the colors.
Black or black, red.
It's all these little mysteries everywhere.
Cool little guy.
What do you guys think was on the upper level?
Ever notice this?
First time I've ever seen green paint.
That's fascinating.
Outside walls.
The desert life forms.
Now I'm going to try and get up there.
I think there's a trail along here.
Whoa, I see more.
Only place I've ever seen green paint.
So yeah, I'll go along here.
Come up and over.
Here's something rare that I missed.
Hands with like foot-long fingers.
I've never ever seen that before.
There's little red hand prints.
So I just found the wild way to the upper level.
There's actually ancient steps.
One there, one here, one here.
Then they go, they kind of zigzag.
And then they just disappear halfway up.
So I'm going to climb up this crack.
Check it out.
All right, guys.
I just climbed up the cliff.
It's amazing view up here.
There's the ruins.
Just climbed up this.
Now we got to come up and around.
Don't attempt stuff like this.
Unless you're a professional climber.
Years of experience.
So now I can simply go up and over.
There's a little cave there.
This looks absolutely cool.
Looks like there's a secret shelf up there.
I would imagine they would have climbed up that.
Hid stuff up there.
More grinding stones, petroglyphs.
Comment right now what you guys like to see the most.
Once I come to these alcoves.
What do you want me to focus on most?
The views or the petroglyphs?
Please comment and let me know.
Whoa, that is cool.
It's balancing.
Wow, that is pretty ghetto.
That thing is loaded.
Ready to fall.
But behind it is a really nice sleeping area.
It appears like it never ever gets any moisture back here.
All right, let's go down further.
Pretty fun.
There's the first little piece.
Look at that.
They used wood just like rebar.
That is amazing.
Now this is what I wanted to see.
I've never ever seen green paint before.
Please comment right now.
Just guess what you think it is.
I love hearing you guys and what you think.
And we can all add something up.
So please comment if you know anything about this or green paint or what they mean.
Kind of small hands.
So well preserved.
Look at that.
This piece here probably was stuck in there.
It's like rebar reinforcement.
Big rooms.
This is interesting.
The door is sealed off.
Has this door.
That one is sealed off.
Maybe they sealed it off before they vanished or left 700 years ago.
Maybe they sealed the whole thing up.
Just vanished.
Secret little storage.
Just amazing.
Little hidey hole.
There's another little spot here.
I don't know if I want to go over there.
They did make like a little ladder.
Look at this perched on the side of a cliff.
Wow that is stunning.
Look at all those grind marks down there.
Little steps.
It's amazing this little wall survived all of this.
I'm having lunch now.
I would love for you guys to comment and tell me what is your favorite cliff dwelling site.
Mine is probably Eagle's Nest.
It's pretty wild.
And I'd also like to know what are your guys's favorite myth stories.
Mine for sure is the one I think it's the one the Navajo talk about.
There's many tribes but they talk about there was a red-headed giant.
That were killing and eating all the people.
So eventually they all got together and trapped them in a cave and somehow killed them off.
The people killed off the giants.
So what is your guys's favorite myth?
I would love to hear some more things with you guys.
I love that I am attracting open-minded people.
And it's pretty epic you could come along with me.
Subscribe if you'd like to see the next big mystery I'm revealing next.
Thanks for watching guys.
