If you get a chance go over and watch this video of mine .. it is one of my *FAVORITES * high high desert peak kzread.info/dash/bejne/mGFny6Oxhqm7e6g.html

There is so much Apache history in SW New Mexico. My father, older brother and I walked many miles from Hermosa to the Animas, south seco, north seco, Reeds peak and places in between. I always imagined I was walking on the Apache footprints, sitting where they may have, camped and built a fire in the same spot. Watched a sunrise and set the same as they did. So many good memories. My father passed away at age 88 on Oct 8th. We recalled our moments in the Black Range before he passed. If you are still young enough go on an adventure with your father. Or many. The memories will sustain you when he passes on. Brett, thank you so much for your videos and the reminders of my trips in the beautiful Black Range.

I’d wondered if the rocks had been sanded down a long long time ago.. a message upon entry , to ward off strangers. I did deep cave walking, n scooting on your face n bottom. It must have been exuberance of my youth and peers.. I have claustrophobia then and now as an old timer. My heart raced watching you go further in. I spent time in Las Cruces area and hiked the Organ Range and went into Texas up into the mountains to see and follow the Butterfield Overland Mail Trail, I think it was the Guadalupe Mountains. So beautiful. We went from salt flats at the bottom up n up. The mountains there are majestic. Its incredible to read how mail , money , passengers too, in stagecoach going up to 100 miles a day. Cowboy riders n horses being switched out. I’ve read the trail went from Missouri to California.. 2700 miles.. This mode lasted 3yrs and ended in 1861. I need to read up on post Butterfield Trail.. probably extension of train tracks and Western Union? Love your video .. your Agnes is a devoted friend and your dogs.. great pack of protectors.

Genesis 2:7,,,Genesis 3:19.I know all this comes as a shock to you,but just realize as so many gov and private institutions lie to you,,,so has organized religion.They are vestages of corruption and dishonesty.

I drove and explored every cow path and 2 trach I could point my 4runner up. If I had a spine left to tolerate the saddle any more I would happily make those journeys via a mules back. Never been much of a horse guy but always got along with mules. I suppose my dad was right when he said I was a hard-headed jackass....sadly in far north east Maine I am seeing the exact same issues we had in AZ. Albeit at a lower level of intensity but that is where it starts. One day I hope to get back to that end of the universe.

the name of the mule is Agnes, not agnus 🙂

Welcome back Brett. Glad health wise doing this ride. I am glad did not run into Geronimo and his people. Beautiful land, that is one thing you or I would never know, your riding where he could have ridden that’s great, untouched no buildings, homes. His people not chasing you. Is this before Geronimo came to Arizona? Kenny/Kid Yuma

Yeah pretty sure I wouldn't want to meet them face to face lol .. Thanks Kenny

Fantastic content. Great video. Your hard work shows in the quality of your work. Thank you 🙏

I really enjoyed this video! Glad I found your channel. Hopefully, I can get back out there next Spring or Summer and find that cave. It reminded me a bit of when I went down into the Apache Death Cave. But, that is a lot easier to get to, then your adventure here. I loved every second.

Thank you for sharing!! Been to the mesa Verde in the 80 s camp there many times, love it there felt like home!!

Such a mix of curiosity, melancholy, kind of a peaceful joy and satisfaction traveling with you to this cave I have heard and read so much about. Thank You for this video.

You took the long Scenic route. This is a cool place to hike to in the fall. Sad to see a lot of spray paint in and around the cave. Great video

Awesome! Thank you!

I KNOW what you're steppin in! When I lived in the Ozarks of MO, we would tour caves and caverns all the time, loved it! 20 years later, about 50 yrs old, my girlfriend and I were in Chatanooga TN. They have the worlds deepest cave/cavern there and we bought tickets to tour it. You enter the cave system through an elevator which takes you to te bottom and you walk out back through the cave system to the outside exit. The minute I stepped out of the elevator into the cave my chest tightened up so bad I could not breathe "I'm in good shape, not overweight nor have I ever smoked. I could not breathe! The elevator had gone back up for another load and I told the guide to get it back down immediately! NEVER have I had this or anything like this, but I got so clostraphobic, I had to go back up and my girlfriend continued the tour. She said it was very very tight in some of the area, I would have passed out and had them carry me out! Crazy! But now, I'm so clostraphobic, any tight confined quarters set me off. So, I feel your pain brother, I could not go any further in Geronimo's Cave than the sunlit area's! Great video, thx!

lol .. I have no idea how I can talk to a camera the way I do .. heck I can't hardly talk in front of people lol .. Thank you!!

It's not you feeling tight, but in that cave after you go back past the entrance light, in that big room the air is stale there, and get worse as you go back, you can use a lighter and only the tip will burn meaning low oxygen. The cave doesn't have a second exit anymore, if it ever did it's gone now.

Thanks for this. In the middle 50’s - the late 60’ dad had a a really nicely colored Appy Mule. As a family, we rode all the time. His mule was the trail breaker. Now at a beat up 75 years old, those days are gone for me. Dad would be proud to know that one of his great grandsons is in college on a rodeo scholarship in two events and already has his pro apprentice license with the PRCA.
