The best part is the bonding with your pops.

Man those of you who can enjoy your dad it’s beautiful to see someone who loves them and enjoy each other just saying since I couldn’t live that same experience i try with my daughters so enjoy! Your not too old

During the summer, on nights with a full moon, they put on an evening music show. People bring chairs, pack a dinner, and watch the sun set, while the full moon rises and you listen to music. It is a fantastic experience!

I went here with my mom in January. It was amazing! Drove from St. Louis to Albuquerque and all around New Mexico on a spur of the moment trip and its one I'll remember FOREVER!!

Love how you travel, and bond with your father. Simply wonderful!!! Five miles hiking in sand dunes is quite the workout.

Perfect place to spend Earth Day 2024. Hope to visit someday!

Just came back from White Sands and it was gorgeous. Like you Josh, during a hike, I found myself all alone out in the sand dunes and it felt so peaceful. And I agree that the sunset is the best I've seen in a national park. Loved the colors - pink and orange. Your video was a wonderful reminder of my time there.

Grew up in el paso. My father was part of the team that tested and perfected the guidance and control systems for the lunar landing model. We went many times to white sands often just a Sunday drive. My childhood memories are full of days in white sands as well as many visits to Carlsbad caverns, and Juarez. Hiking the Franklin mountains to waco tanks. Riding the tram. And Ascarity park. And broild shrimp from the Oasis drive in. While listening to Steve Crosnos .😎 let's not forget watching the filming of The Getaway and the Ever Shining Star of Texas on the side of the mountain. 😎

Thanks Josh thanks Pops...and you said you wouldn't have a go...I think the 'yahoo' made it the best slide of the day.. thumbs up 👍 for seniors ha ha.. stunning photography as always Josh...bear in mind not everyone gets to follow in your footsteps there are some of us who are unable, cant afford it, live on the other side of the world or whatever, we just like to watch you and Pops have fun and you take such great photos and videos.. stunning sunset pics too those white sands and purple skies were amazing. cheers from Western Australia

I really appreciate you always saying about places being wheelchair friendly. What a beautiful place

11:46 That Sunset was beautiful

When I was a kid in the 50s we used to go to White Sands for picnics while we were staying in Ruidoso. We would have a fire and stay well after dark playing in the moonlight in the white sand. It was one of my favorite things to do back then. There were far fewer people then. Yes, and the sunsets were gorgeous.

It’s very nice to see how father Son travel together , we always enjoy all you videos , we learn a lot from hidden Places, and you videos are quality , keep travel and enjoy

I just saw this place with my son last week....Amazingly beautiful place!

Went on a girl's trip to Albuquerque NM and drove over to the White Sands and had a blast!

I'm going here tomorrow! Wahoo!

Such a perfectly put together video that serves as a no frills, straight down to business introduction to someone looking for information on White Sands with very less time on their hands. Kudos!

Nice video. Thanks for sharing a lovely father and son hike in such a surrealistic beautiful place. This will be a cherished memory for the two of you.

Wow this looks amazing! I had never heard of this national park until you made this video! That’s cool that you travel with your dad!

Ya.....it's inspiring for me as a dad.....

What a great video and the sunset view at 12:06 is stunning and would make a great art photo!

Nice. I'll need to add this NP to my list to visit. Great sunset. I imagine that sunrise with the mountains in the background is quite nice as well. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the virtual tour! I love seeing your dad hike with you😉

Wow what an amazing view

Love that you call your dad, "Pops". I call mine "Pops" too!

Love it! Those sunset colors are amazing 🤩 What a unique place to visit 💟

Stoping there tomorrow! Looking forward to it!

Thanks so much for sharing this video. Looks beautiful out there!

Was there in the early 70's. Really beautiful.

I love seeing you and your father together. Gives me the feels !!

Great video, you covered every question I had. We're about to take the kids there on a road trip for spring break and this provided all the info I needed to plan.

That is very amazing landscape and nice that you can do that with your dad cool.

I'm glad I've found your video. Thank you for this amazing journey!

Loved it when I went way back, was such a cool day out

Thanks man. This was such an informative video.

Very Informative!! Love it!!

Great video! We will be visiting this coming week!

BEAUTIFUL PLACE!

Great vid as always. You're the best! Pops is my dream man. 🥰

Its so fun to see you and your dad

Went to white sands today. Just used the sleds laying around. Didn’t know about the wax. They sell it in the gift shop for three dollars, it would’ve been worth it! Next time I’ll do it right😂 thanks for the great video! I should’ve watched it before I got there😊

The silence and the sunsets are incredible! My kids asked to go back over spring break! We can’t wait!

That’s amazing! I’ve never heard of this place before! Thanks for posting about this insanely lovely National park

Thanks Josh.this will be added on my bucket list.

Awesome sunset

We love all your videos! Thank you Amazing ♥️

That’s amazing! I’ve never heard of this place before! Thanks for posting about this insanely lovely National park 🏞

WaW! Thanks. Another well made vid.

Awesome!

Always a pleasure to travel with you. It's such an enjoyable experience. Thank you so much! Appreciate it! : )

It was raining lightly from Hurricane Harold from Texas, and almost no one was there, but very magical, like walking on another planet. The 15 minute movie in the visitors center was excellent background.

Great this national park! I'm thinking of visiting this summer, can't wait to glide over the dunes 🤩 Your dad is great!

Delightful video and informative narration. It brought back a lot of wonderful memories of when my parents and I would go on vacation to New Mexico.

Great info, thank you! I’ll be there for a day in couple of weeks!!!

Great vid! ty

What a fantastic place. It doesn't get much mention, to my knowledge. Dune sledding looks like great fun. Thanks for taking us along. 🌞🌅👏

I have been there many times when I lived in New Mexico. The sand looks like snow. Another good one. Thanks.

Awesome thanks for sharing

Wow, beautiful place, beautiful video! Pop's very cool!

Loved the new video. It's awesome you get to travel with your pops 👍

Love your father and son bonding

sick video, so cool!

Love your videos bro your PCH video my favorite I'll be going to white sands on New years Eve so excited I'll be with my family I live in Phoenix so it a nice trip over to New Mexico

Too bad the visitor center is restricted by Covid. The museum explains the natural processes (about ten of them) that have to occur in a specific order to form the dunes. The dune field covers 275 square miles, and is the largest of only a handful of gypsum dune fields in the world. The next largest is near Carlsbad, NM, and covers only 4 square miles, so White Sands is truly a special place. Glad to see you guys enjoying it so much. I volunteered at the monument when my wife and I lived in Alamogordo for 10 years. WS is my favorite place on earth, and that's saying a lot, since I've been to several parks, including Carlsbad, Mammoth, and Wind caves, Glacier, Rocky Mountain, Arches, Badlands, and Yellowstone. I know that's far from seeing all the wonderful national parks, but it's enough to make me certain that something about those dunes is truly captivating. Thanks for sharing your fun! Oh, and if you ever go back, make sure it's mid-July. Take twice as much water as you think you'll need, along with sunscreen and a good hat, and walk onto the dunes at high noon when the temperature is 110F. You will not burn your feet! Seriously, you won't. Gypsum reflects the heat. But if you do that, be careful. While I volunteered there, a 23 year old nurse died from dehydration on the Alkali Flat Trail. The dunes are beautiful, but will quickly take your life away if you are not super careful.

I never heard of this park either!😍

So beautiful, thanks for sharing

Great video from my home state of New Mexico! I haven’t been since it became an official National Park

I love all about this video, I came here because tomorrow I'm going to white sands, thank you for this video

Sunsets are fantastic. ...I was there!🧏‍♀️

Beautiful

Beautiful shots you guys got! I've always wanted to go here.

a great video we all loved it thanks

Great video! It’s been on my bucket list for some time along with Carlsbad caverns! You captured it brilliantly. It’s really great to see the nature’s play to create such a huge sand dunes! I have been to Colorado’s sand dunes, but this is magnificent 😊👍

Great video! Love seeing a great dad spend time with their son. My dad forgot about me at the age of 12 that bastard.

Great video!

Great content! Keep it up! Thks

Worked there the summer of '87. Fun to see what has changed and what hasn't. Don't miss Full Moon Nights if they still have them.

This is amazing!!!! I couldn’t get over the beauty of this place! You’re always outdoing yourself Josh! Nice to see you guys having fun, hello Mr. Pops 👋😊 oh and yeah Josh, they’re going to start giving names to mice 🤣🤣🤣🤣
