oh wow Jordan! This is great. Love this movie and always wondered where exactly in Colorado it was filmed. I remember watching this in the theater and the music and the big screen meadow scene was epic! I was 9 years old and I've never forgotten it.

How great to see scenes from True Grit. One of my favorite movies. Thanks Katie and Jordan.

Loved this trip down memory lane! Thank you Jordan and Katie ❤

I love how you visit so many cool and nostalgic locations and have a lot of background knowledge about it!

The scene in Deb's Meadow won The Duke the Oscar.

Such a great video, Jordan. Im a huge John Wayne & Debbie Reynolds fan, so it was so nice to see the filming locations for True Grit & how beautiful Deb's Meadow is. The little film clip of Debbie in costume with her little kiddos was truely special...Thank You, Jordan & Thank You, Todd!!! Jordan & Katie, awesome video!!! 👍👍

Brilliant vlog. Thanks for another great adventure, Jordan and Katie!

Great movie. Thanks for taking the time to find all these places. These places would be difficult to find and you bring them back to life.

Congratulations to both you and Katie for this wonderful vlog to see where a great movie was made Thanks

Nice video. I was fortuanate enough to visit Ridgway when it still had dirt streets...looked more "western." Wow, they fixed up the Ross house. Five years ago, the porch awning was hanging on by one corner and the whole house looked very aged. Looks like they bleached/cleaned the whole house. (bit of trivia: that house was last lived-in in 1959, when the owners moved into town...both dead now). Up at Deb's meadow, you can tell they chopped down all that wetland meadow growth when they filmed. Have been to all the filming locations that were done in Colorado. My wife and I are going down there again to view the fall colors. Will only be doing Last Dollar Road and Owl Creek Pass, but will still get to see a few of the filming locations againg. Thanks for the video.

Wow. That sure was an incredible vlog, Mr. Jordan and Katie. Great Western movie history!

Told ya Colorado is a GORGEOUS State ❤❤❤ Thanks Jordan and Katy for sharing True Grit locations. My hubby LIVES for Westerns 🥰😘❤️🙏🫶♥️🇨🇦

Thank you Jordan, for showing where John Wayne True Grit movie! I love John Wayne movies. He was a great actor!!!

Very beautiful area. Glad you and Katy found it. Thanks for bringing us along. You and Katy take care.

Thank you Jordan and Katie. As I've mentioned on other posts, I have done/held a host of jobs and have traveled extensively in my sixty three years on terra firma. Yet, you consistently have me kicking myself in the butt and asking: "How in the hell did you miss that? You passed through there....lol Thanks for the wonderful vlogs and your willingness and time to give in depth background stories...Most travel vlogs are severely lacking in that department. It's clear they're thrown together as quickly as possible, with the hope of an easy payday. Mark K

That is beautiful countryside ❤.

A excellent view thanks for all you do Cheers!

Fantastic video, Jordan! True Grit is one of my favorite movies and I absolutely love John Wayne! The meadow scene is such a great scene in the movie. It looks as beautiful now as when it was filmed over 50 years ago. Thanks again for the great memories!

Fascinating video! I think Katie is an excellent co video partner; because you are focused on great video; and can’t look about, as she can! 👏🏼👏🏼 Love how you show the movies from the past, when you are showing the location! Thanks! Safe travels!!!❤

Fascinating! Especially the rare home movies of Reynolds and bored kids were amazing.

Jordan and Katie, loved the vlog, one of my favorite movies 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I never saw the movie "True Grit" but this was a wonderful blog. Thanks for sharing it. I never watched a lot of Wayne movies but I did like Glen Campbell. My dad was a big John Wayne fan. Your vlogs are great Jordan!

Jordan - this was absolutely superb. Many thanks to you both.

John Wayne is my favorite actor of all time. My of current favorite is Robin Williams and his entire career I was blessed to have seen what a great actor and comedian he did everything very well which is unheard of today's actor's both actor's gave you everything they had as actor's and I love them ❤️ because of that.

Hey guys, thanks for sharing. This was my dad's favorite movie. 2:00 the scenery is beautiful.

Thank you Jordan and Katie! Really enjoyed the vlog and love John Wayne 😊

This is so cool Jordan 😍 love Deb's meadow and the old family movies there 😊 ❤ True Grit is such a great movie. They just don't make movies like that anymore 😢 Another one of my favorite John Wayne movies is The Cowboys❤

This is a great video. Jordan you're the greatest. I've watched all your videos. You do a super job.

Great work Jordan! I love these classic film locations revisited.

Growing up love his movies

I still love the movies with the great actor, he had a lot personality and charm. 👍💙😊

Thanks Jordan that was amazing I am huge John Wayne fan .I will have to make a trip there to cover his steps to .

That was surreal, glad to see that the meadow is still open and looks identical. I wonder if someone maintains it to keep the trees from taking over. Thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed again Jordan ,Katy you narrate so well J

This video was great fun. An awesome movie.

This is great! I saw True Grit as a kid. John Wayne is still one of my favorite actors so it is appropriate that he is Vloged by my favorite Vloger! We have visited Monument Valley and hope to make it here someday. Another great Vlog! Thanks!

This was great! This is our all time favorite John Wayne movie. I can't believe you found the meadow but so glad you did. Stunningly beautiful there. Thanks Jordan & Katie for a fun vlog.

Awesome thank you for sharing this was stunning love all the views

Excellent video! You and Katie are so cute together. It's great that you have almost 300K subscribers. Your videos are so entertaining.

Jordan you guys should come North to montana and do some vlogs here, see Clint Eastwood thunder bolt and lightfoot or Yellowstone ranch .if you could afford it you could rent the bed and breakfast place at the ranch. Common Katie deserves it. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.....

Thanks for posting this video. True Grit is one of my all time favorite movies.

Loved today's vlog, John Wayne was a favorite!! Thanks!

That meadow looks perfect to build a dreams house , and a farm

Hi Jordan & Katie, what a beautiful drive. I love all the little filming location markers along the way. What a great movie. Great vlog Jordan.

Great video Jordan.

Jordon, you out did yourself on this one! Incredible vlog! What a magical place Deb's meadow is. I believe those were wild horses' hoof prints! Loved True Grit! Actually saw it at the movie! How the West was Won was CINERAMA! The theaters had to have special screens and projectors to show it! My uncle was the manager of the Indiana Theater in Indy! The premiere was such a big deal! I have photos used for the newspapers from the event! Our Uncle took us on a tour of the equipment installed in the theater! The filming process was done to draw the viewer into the shot. Incredible shots of the mountains! I can still remember the bison stampeding over the railroads tracks! The shot made you feel like you were under the tracks! Debbie Reynolds was awesome in that movie! Incredible voice as always! She was such a trooper! John Wayne had an incredible body of work!!! What a treat it was to see all this! Thank you, again wonderful effort to follow the filming locations! Appreciate you and Katie so much!!!

Glad to see you made it to Colorado! I've lived here all my life. Would have been cool to meet you and shake your hand. I'm so glad to see that filming location hasn't been changed. Love that the rock is still there! Looking forward to your other vlogs from here!

Awesome video. Great movie

Loved the Movie true grit! this was an awesome video! :)

I miss Jah.

Hi, Jordan and Katie..., Excellent video and very informative, and thank you for sharing the video ! ! Excellent video... "Semper Fi" Mike in Montana P.S.: I decided to view a few more of your videos and decided to "Subscribe" to your excellent channel... :)

You are very cute together! 💙😊💙

That was awesome to see were the movie was made thanks

Great movie location video!

Sent to fast This vlog is excellent THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.......

Awesome video

Great job, Jordan! I did something similar to this a few years ago and since then have been to the ferry scene location and the dugout scene location. Still don't know where the rattlesnake scene was shot.

I did this same thing in 2019 and went as far as the no trespassing sign after the big mansion and turned around. Wish I could have made it to the meadow. Sure is a beautiful area. Also went and saw the Dennis Weaver earth ship house

You are so handsome and Katie is beautiful!!!Thank you so much!!!😊 Love from Alabama

The secret word of the day is Thank You

WOW! I aways thought that area looked familiar, I live a couple hours a way from Ridgeway

John Wayne have every western he made including the 1930’s ty sweetie

thx...

the coen brothers one was a masterpiece

Stuff like this with JW is always a great idea! I came up with a Western Shoot Out character of JB Book's brother, DB or Daniel Banes Books. The vengeful brother type, like Max, went off the deep end.

❤❤❤

If you’re passing through Arkansas, a stop at the real Fort Smith is worth a stop, although it doesn’t look at all like the movie locales.

That was great, we were planning going there on our summer trip but I got sick. We will do it next year! How bad was the road to the meadow?

I was always curious about the actual filming location of True Grit, since the aspen trees and mountains in the movie look nothing like the area that actually surrounds Fort Smith, Arkansas.

You know there are other scenes which were filmed where you were. McAlister's was off to the north side of the road you took from the Ross homestead back to Ridgeway. There wasn't much of any structure left when I was there several years ago. And by Deb's meadow, if you take the road there east just another .4 miles or so to the ridge, by a large rock, is the campsite where Maddie wants to light a match to see the corn dodgers. The large rock is the same one in the scene. A couple of weeks ago I finally made it to Hot Creek off California 395 where Lucky Ned Pepper was coming for remounts and Dennis Hopper's character dies. Some of North to Alaska also filmed there. If you haven't been there, check it out.

Also filmed in Chama NM
