I've been to Gold Butte many times. How did I miss this! Thank you. Another adventure is in the future.

You're welcome! You'll have to go back. Be sure to watch the overview video on Gold Butte to make the loop trip that will include (but does not mention for various reasons) a stop at 7 Keyholes. kzread.info/dash/bejne/jGll1tR_nZi1fJM.html

It is a nice place...

You all do a great job with your videos! It's great to know how to get there and what you find when you get there (we've watched multiple of your Gold Butte videos)! We are going to the area tomorrow and we are very excited, mostly based on your videos! Thanks again!

Thank you! Hope enjoyed your trip. You probably had good weather other than the wind.

You asked "was there ever that much water rushing through the Nevada desert to create this"....yes, there was...Noah's flood. Full time RVer here...this area is now on our bucket list for this spring when we head out west. Thanks for the videos.

You're welcome and thanks for commenting. This area was underwater for a significant amount of time (i.e. Noah's Flood), however this feature was created by a single flowing flood event at a different time, similar to a slot canyon. Nature is amazing.

Thank you for the amazing videos. Much needed inspiration during these times.

Great post! I really liked the use of the drone to show the hike and surrounding area. Hoping to visit and leave no trace someday.

Thank you. Yes, the drone is a new addition to our bag of tools.

Great vid! So professional. These formations look to be very, very old. Cheers!

Nice job! Happy Easter to you! Rox

I missed this for some reason. I guess I didn't know about it. I was at Little Finland, but didn't know about this place. Guess I'll have to get back.

Nice I wish to visit that place

Well my upcoming visit to GB just got more interesting.

Great, very informative vid! Just curious, I have been told that it is not permissible to fly a drone in a National Park/Monument. Am I wrong?

Thanks for commenting. Flying drones: definitely a no-no in National Parks. National Monuments are managed by different entities with different rules. Like many recently designated National Monuments, Gold Butte is managed by the BLM. I asked the management team there and there are currently no rules on drones. It is also a very remote area where you rarely see people. My rule of thumb anywhere before flying a drone, is there people nearby? If yes, I don't fly it.

Thanks a ton for the info! I rarely take mine anywhere nowadays because of the "people" issue you alluded to. It's a shame, but it is what it is... Again, great vid and an area I have to see...

How is Gold Butte and Mud Wash Rd? Is high clearance enough or do you need locking capabilities? Is the dirt sticky/slippery clay when wet? Thinking of adding this loop to our next trip to southern Utah.

We did this trip last week and I didn't put the vehicle into 4WD. Whenever you go though, I would check with the Friends of Gold Butte office Mesquite for road conditions.

Is this on the same road I took to get to Little Finland? Beautiful! Thanks

Wonderful video, were you by chance flying your drone inside the "Keyholes" at anytime?I can tell your using a wide angle hand held camera.

Thank you! No, the drone video is only in the beginning. The video footage inside the keyholes was done with a gimbal and the reason why it is so smooth.

Yes. About 3 weeks ago. It's in the 80s out here.

Is there a big temperature differential inside the keyholes vs. outside?
