Paint Mines Interpretive Park, Colorado
Paint Mines Interpretive Park, Colorado
Abby’s Mom sent us a link to this place and since we were only an hour away we had to go check it out. This place was amazing! We really enjoyed it. If you’re into hiking and love natural formations this this is a spot you need to visit. Beautiful sandstone capped clay formations with lots of interesting colors. Located less than an hour east of Colorado Spring in El Paso County Colorado.
Looks like a scene from Star Wars
Wow what a gorgeous place thank you for bringing us along..and Abby,, I’m digging the shirt..I kept waiting for Adam to move the camera around so I could read what it said cuz I couldn’t see what it said but I had an idea.. hahaha..
Nice!! Amazing… 🙂
In my opinion you guys put out some of the best travel videos on YouTube.
Always interesting and informative and presented in a simple, not full of bull manure format (not like some others)
I live in New Zealand and where we have some amazing scenery but the USA would give us a good run for our money.
Keep up the good work and thanks.
Bummer you are all over my neck of the world! You can always use my WiFi in the Springs!
Awesome. Thanks so much for sharing this with us!
On vacation and up before sunrise!
I’d suggest trying to do the Bachelor Loop Mining trail just outside of Creede, CO along with the mining museum and The Last Chance Mine (if open). Lot’s of good things to see there. Pagosa Springs is always a favorite. 3 Barrel Brewing in Del Norte, CO; The Colorado Farm Brewery in Alamosa; Riff Raff on the Rio Brewing in Pagosa.
Safe travels!
Y’all need to go see dragonman’s he has a YouTube channel he’s about 10 miles east of Colorado Springs
i thank you both for giving me a view i will never be able to see with my own eyes, but thanks to you i did get to see it through your eyes and cameras thank you.
Thank you for the beautiful tour of the Paint Mines. I trust your lunch was great!
That is one surreal landscape.
Great video guy’s the tour is so beautiful. Matt C.
You guys are awesome. Thank you for sharing. -Mike
That was the most beautiful spot so far on your trip. I have never heard of this place before.
With those "balancing rocks", it is actually unlikely that they just fell over. More than likely, the same type of people who climbed all over the formations, pushed the rocks over. :-/ As a truck driver, I pass through Colorado Springs often. Too bad I can’t get my truck down there. 🙂
Amazing
Welcome to a part of Colorado that most folks never think of visiting. Our friends run cattle just about 4 miles south of Paint Mines and I spend every fall hunting antelope in the area around there. Most folks only think of mountains when they think of Colorado. Congrats to Abby’s mom for sending you out east.
Abby, I love your t-shirt! Great video guys.
Hey Adom and ms. Adom .welcome to colorful colorado. Just an idea, if your still down south not to far out the springs is a place j think Adom would really be interested in seeing. In rye colorado a place called "Bishops castle". It’s pretty incredible. I won’t give too much away, but it is a castle. A man pretty much by himself built with his own two hands. And if you go see it you won’t believe ,or understand. How this one man spent his life built this enormous. Castle. Maby. Check it out online. And see if your interested. I watch your channel all the time and I know it’s right up your alley. Anyway, just a thought. Enjoy our beautiful state. I hope your not getting smoked out from the fires too bad. Be safe,. Peace✌️
❤
Oh a lot of the top layers are volcanic ash from when yellowstone blew.
An amazing unique place, thanks you for sharing it with us. I would love to see it in person.
Man not only did I not realize before that you had an adventures channel on top of your machining channel, but that you’re also located in Colorado and near me! It’s actually pretty awesome
Thank you for a great video! I just discovered this place and I am so anxious to see it!
cant wait for yall to go east like hum maine try them lobsters . vermont that where i want to go born in new york never seen snow over 4 inch it sucks. the day i was born dad drove through 6 ft of snow to get to the hospital
Thanks for the great walk along very pretty u did great job
just awsome display of how powerful nature can be , water made those canyons . you guys see some great places .
You know some Comanche use that paint for there faces to attack white people!🐰🐰🐰
when we are young, life is downhill, easy, relaxed, but as we grow, returning up, hmmm bit like life:))
Abby’s got some hilarious shirts, that’s for sure.
Lots of these little badlands in the high plains states. There’s one called "Hell’s Half Acre" just outside Casper Wyoming if you ever make it up that way. It’s where Starship Troopers was shot.
Love your vids. Been following abom79 channel and just started following this channel great content. Abby’s laugh is so infectious 😂😂
Always enjoy yall’s adventures! Cheers!
A Long and Winding Road
Time for a nap!
That jackrabbit was awesome, he runs like a deer or something, anything but a rabbit.
Adam – I wonder how OLD those trails are! Can you imagine the action that’s happened there the last 500 years!
The best part of your trip was we got to see everything without sweating…
You guys are great keep it up
Wow…. 🙂
Nice video. Where was to best parkingplace to stop for the most colourful part ?
<— Looks like the HooDoos we have here. I wonder if there’s an underground link to the 2 areas. Maybe the Hoodoos are older?..Ya, always have the right gear to wear and lots of water!… Cheers.
Great hats! You should buy a ranch.
Was that a jackalope?
thank you for showing the entire route
Lived in Pueblo. all of my life and did not know of this place
To paraphrase Casey Stengel "When you come to a fork in the path take it."
Beautiful, colorful formations. A lot flatter than Pike’s Peak, huh? Nice that you two were able to get out so early and have the place to yourselves…really rare in scenic sites.
# Les Cotta do you know it was the white people who first attacked the Comanches on their own territory?
The music at the end there with the photos , Wow speachless
