  1. My brother and I have been camping and hiking since age 4 and 9 but are now 70 and 75. We so love watching Desert Drifter. Especially the hIstorical research done. We are praying for you both. God Bless you both.

  2. I've slipped on icy trails before and rolled down hills before. Luckily unharmed. And I worried about some of Desert Drifters sketchier trails.We are both praying for his recovery and his family. Being at a loved one's bedside is very hard. Been there.

  7. @virtualmartini  Aztecs,Incas,Mayans. All built on previous complex civilizations. Where'd you study history? I majored in it and I'm part Yuchi. Lol!

  8. Some eastern Native American women married white men to keep their land as it was from their mothers and it was to avoid being sent west on the awful "Trail of Tears" which was more than one by the way.

  10. My father was a B24 pilot. He flew out of a joint OSS/ ArmyAirCorp base in England and had "Q" clearance because they dropped personnel,supplies,and cash in Euorpean countries for the resistance not bombs. Sometimes at night and sometines day.Originally they were tasked with picking up downed and rescued allied pilots.

  11. @foxhollowantiques7098  I have degrees in history. There is no way multiple generations of Native Civilizations each built on the ruins of another could have happened in as short a time as some current historians claim. The ability to merely travel by foot thousands of miles,creat complex societies from hunters to agriculturists to empires is impossible in so short a time frame.

  12. I've heard of this eagle feather catching for sacred rituals. Tony Hillerman talked of it in one of his novels about the Navaho detective stories. He researched Native cultures and beliefs and it sounds like what he talked of.

  13. I always wondered why no one thought to ask a Native American elder about it.

  14. This is one of my favorite videos.

  15. As a history major and long time camper and hiker I understand why he doesn't identify his " finds". Far too many sites are vandalized. Even ancient graves have been desecrated by pot hunters,etc in the SW.

  16. I have camped and hiked since age 9. When covid hit our club we were forced to close. I so enjoy the videos too. We are 70 and 75 now and love Andrews videos. We are praying for his recovery.

  23. I'm old now but that western sky at night is like diamonds on black velvet at night. You can pick out the constellations. Andrew's videos remind me of hiking and camping out there when I was young.

  24. I've roamed around some beautiful but sketchy places in the west. Mostly in the Mohave desert. We take a pistol but never had to use it. As a friend once said" It's the two legged ones that are the most dangerous not the rattlers and mountain lions while hiking or prospecting.

  25. My father took my brother and I camping since early childhood and he was a stickler on never leaving a crumb behind and we often picked up other people's rubbish too.

  26. True. As is selling a pot or buying one found on federal land. Many are in what may be graves too. So disrespectful. I know studying history is important but these museums need to stop digging up the dead and storing them in museums.

  27. Amazing.

  28. Exercise when young pays off.

  29. @LadyBits2023  Well it's funny and beats fools who diss people's comments who don't know two figs about history. I majored in it and some people will say blue is red just to be argumentitive.

  31. I was never that brave but I camped in the SW. A friend did live in a commune out west. I think we were a little like the kids today. Wanting to try new things and explore.

  32. ​ @Veganfarter  Me too. The night sky out in the Mohave Arizona desert is so beautiful. I miss the camping and hiking.
