 Hello my friends, it's your old buddy Ryan Banduzer and it's time for an adventure! You might recognize her from the Caballo Blanco video series, her name is Allie, how you doing? I'm doing great, Ryan. When I went on that adventure I didn't know Allie very well at all, but now I do. That's true. That's true, we know each other a little bit better, there'll be more on that later. The point of this is that we're going on an adventure to the sand dunes, my whole family's going to be there and it's going to be awesome. The sand dunes are about four hours from Boulder. I've only been there once in my life, which is crazy. Allie, you've been there once? Once. Once. My mom has never been there and that's really the reason why we're going. She's wanted to go for years and we've finally made it happen. And we're all pretty darn excited about this. Check it out, it is almost a full moon and the goal is to climb all over the sand dunes under the full moonlight. It's going to be a great weekend. Check it out. We're at the sand dunes and there's a lot of sand here. Surprise. How are you doing? I'm good. You ready for this? Yeah, check it out. This is my brother's wife, Logan. This is my brother's wife. This is my middle brother's wife, Hailey. Something like that. This is the other brother's wife, Melissa. Say hi. Hi. I want you to carry me. Here we go. You ready? Yeah, is that okay with you? Yeah. Okay. Hi mom. Hey. How you doing? Good. I'm good. We're walking out to the dunes. Why have you always wanted to come here? Because it's just amazing. This is so Colorado. Come on pregnant woman, let's go. Are you going to walk now? Yeah. This is Carter. How you doing bud? You need somebody to carry you? Yeah. All right, let's go. Okay. Let's go. You ready? What's up Aiden? What's up? High five bud. Aiden's taking his first turn. There he goes. Yeah. You want to slide down the hill? Or are you going to get off my back first? I got to wax it up because I want excessive speed. All right mom. Okay, here we go. All right everybody, it's enough time on the bunny hill. Time to go there. Before coming into the sand dunes, we watched a very informational video. And we learned that these are the tallest sand dunes in North America. Tallest ones about 750 feet high, right? 750 feet. That's what we learned. That the temperatures in the sand can get up to 130 degrees in the summer? That's hot. Go a successful run. Yeah, you've got to keep things straight. I don't know if you can see the steepness of the hill, but it's pretty darn steep. And yeah, let's give it a shot. You know that. You still have a long way to go to get to the top. Walking around in sand dunes is really hard. Like you take a step and you sink in and slide back. So for every step you take, you're really losing a lot of energy. Oh, that's for me? Yeah, I picked this for you. That's beautiful. The polite thing to do when you get some flowers is to stick them behind your ear to show appreciation. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. I have been on top of a lot of mountains in my life. But these ones are a little bit unique because obviously all you can see for a long, long ways is just sand and sand and sand. Those mountains behind me are called the Sangre de Cristos, the blood of Christ. National parks, man. I'm sure glad that our country took it seriously to protect all these national parks because they are definitely the gem of this country. All the people walking up the dunes look like a bunch of little ants. It's crazy. I'll save you, I'll save you. I'm coming. Here you go, I'll help you out. Okay, fine. One, two, three, go. Okay, whoa, we're going backwards. Okay, I got this one. It's a super... Not working. Is there still sand in my face? I thought I got a lot off. Are you serious? Your whole face is covered in sand. Sand dudes, ladies and gentlemen. It's so different than anything else. People go to the mountains, they go to the canyons, they go to deserts. You know what you're getting. You go to the sand dunes and you're like, wow, I've never seen anything like this. I feel like I'm on another planet. Have you seen a crying kid yet? I've not seen any crying kids. You don't want to know why? Because they're at the sand dunes. We have left the great sand dunes, but the adventure is not over because on our way out here, we saw signs for the Alien Watchtower. All right, here we go. A red vintage from the Napa Valley. This place is really kind of bizarre. There's nobody else here. It doesn't look like a whole lot of people ever really come here. It looks like there's a lot of... It's a place for people to bring offerings, kind of like a shrine. Some people might call it trash. There's lots of random stuff all over the place. And I gotta say, I love places like this. I just love weirdness. I love weirdness. This is how... It just looks like people, like, drive up here and unload whatever trash they have in their cars and put it out here. I want to leave something too, and I don't have a whole lot, but I do have people for bike stickers in my wallet, so I'm going to leave this right here. Because aliens need to ride bikes, too. On top of the Watchtower, I've been told there's some vortexes. This is how we're going to talk to the aliens. If the aliens ever do land here, they're going to be psyched. They're going to be like, wow, this planet is beautiful. I just like humans sometimes. Humans can do great things with their spare time. And I'm going to say this is a great thing. It doesn't harm anybody. It just provides a little bit of simple, innocent fun, right? Yeah, it's unifying. And you know, if the aliens do come down here and take this as an expression of what humans are, they're going to get a really positive message. We are hilarious, because everything down there is just kind of nuts. Alright, the weather's gotten really bad, which is a sign! They're coming! Take us to your leader!
