Hey again Travel with 6! Also - your wonderful practical advice about airing down the tires on the drive (so your eyeballs don't shake out of your head 🙂) Pointing out landmarks while hiking to the Gulch . . VERY helpful! Thank you again!

You are a great dad! When I saw the kids playing in the water freely, I was so touched.

Hey - Travel with 6! I watched your video to see the way into the Gulch - but I got so much more out of it! Your philosophy especially last few minutes. You said: "This is where you earn it" and also "It's do-able" . . and your lessons that your kids learn (great advice for adults also). And the music that you chose for that talk was perfect! Best Dad Ever! Thank you!!

Wow, you're awesome and so is your family. A friend and I drove about 25 hours from Indianapolis in early June 2021 and I'm still infatuated with it (which is how I found your video--thank you). I thought I might have heard you say the waterfalls is the best part. Yeah... Probably is my favorite place. I look forward very much to returning again soon, hopefully 2022. Best wishes to you and your family.

I think your talking about the road between durango and Mazatlan. It's called toll road 45d. It was so amazing and yes the waterfall dropping out of the cliff was unreal. Thanks

Great video! We are from alabama and will be doing this hike mid September. I don’t have one of those ropes as I have never needed one. They seem to be pretty expensive, especially if this would be the only time I would ever use it. Is the rope very important or necessary?

Great video! Love this state and all the amazing hikes available! We are thinking of doing Coyote Gulch in a couple weeks. We are thinking of going the water tank / sneaker route. Other than under/near Jacob Hamblin's Arch, what are some of your favorite camping spots? Is there quite a bit of space throughout the gulch that would work or are the areas that are flat and dry enough more limited. I'm just worried about getting there and then not being able to find somewhere to set up for the night. We plan to stay for 2 nights.

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

Awsome you will love it. Oh the time spent about worrying about a camp spot. the best thing you can do is to not show up friday afternoon. fridays are tough. there is a great overhang alcove about 2 miles downriver. The overhang can hold 4-5 groups and still have decent privacy. There are not a ton of "good" spots but there are places you can camp everywhere. I think the best thing you can do is getting in the canyon early in the day to see which camps are freeing up. let me know how it goes!

Super informative! Thanks for the video, I’m actually en route there now. Brought along a 200 foot rope but I have a silly question, when you descend, do you leave the rope to make your ascent out? The video showed two different color ropes going in and out so I’m a little confused. Any insight on the rope portion of the hike would be greatly appreciated!

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

You can leave your rope but I always worried about liability of all those people on my rope. There will most likely already be a rope there but verify all the connections before you commit to it. Have fun

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

Also climbing out is far eisier than dropping in. You can easily climb up and set rope for your crew to climb out

The side road leading to the water tank parking lot can get very rutted in the soft silt sand, so bring your 4WD, high clearance.

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

Your right on that one. It's the hump between your 2 tire tracks that kills the low clearance cars

Great video! My wife and I are thinking of doing this hike at the beginning of April. How long of a rope would be needed to descend into the gulch?

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

40m should be plenty. Take 6' of webbing to tie off to the anchor point. I didn't show it in the video, to much liability. Do this trip before it gets permitted!

I try to have 2 weekends back to back available in April. With an alt weekend available you can choose the best weather in the 10 day forecast. One weekend could be snowy and the next beautiful. I have gone late March through April, may gets hot. Honestly the most annoying thing in coyote is strong winds.

Do you think it is easy for 3 athletic 20 somethings to descend/climb out without rope? Planning to do this end of March, heading the way of the crack and hiking out the arch way.

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely. I love going that route. Take 30' of small rope to lower your packs at the Crack. Going up jacob hamblin is way easier than going down. No problem

@waynec96 2 жыл бұрын

is the rope at the cliff always there? or should you bring your own rope and leave it there until you climb back out? is it safe leaving the rope there?

@travelwith6589 2 жыл бұрын

It's hit or miss with a rope being there. I personally don't leave a rope, I always take mine with me. 1 it's an expensive rope and 2 I'm afraid of some kind a liability issue if there were an accident.

I was there last Sept. I’m heading back in a few weeks. I did not attempt the sneaker route. We went in and out via Hurricane wash. I’m hoping to go in via the Crack in the wall in a few weeks. Maybe I’ll try to exit the sneaker route this time. How is it with a full pack and kids?

@travelwith6589 3 жыл бұрын

I think the crack to jacob hamblin is the best way to do coyote. I would make sure to have a rope. Its really not to technical but you can really scare kids and sour them on adventure. Over the years I've learned to go overboard to keep people comfortable for a great experience. I've never been in the fall I need to try it. Thanks
