Expédition privée en poche blanche : un voyage dans les falaises de Vermillon
Description
White Pocket est un endroit si éloigné et incroyablement unique qu'il peut avoir l'impression d'être entré dans un autre royaume où la géologie a décidé de contourner les règles. White Pocket peut sembler visuellement époustouflant tout en laissant le spectateur quelque peu perplexe. Situé sur le Vermilion Cliffs National Monument dans l'extrême nord de l'Arizona, White Pocket est très différent de South Coyote Buttes qui est lui-même très distinct de Buckskin Gulch. Ces 3 excursions font la combinaison parfaite "vitrine de la Terre" si vous restez dans la région pendant quelques jours. Se rendre à White Pocket nécessite des véhicules à dégagement élevé et une conduite en 4x4, car vous devez emprunter des routes secondaires accidentées et sablonneuses qui mènent profondément dans le plateau de Paria. A travers les forêts de pins à pignons et de genévriers sur le chemin, vous distinguerez Bryce Canyon au loin et découvrirez le plus haut plateau de l'hémisphère occidental, le plateau du Verseau, culminant à plus de 11 300 pieds et composant les hauts plateaux du Grand Escalaire Escalante National Monument.

My husband and I, 70 and 75 ventured out with George at 6:30 am. What a day, all the feels!! Excitement, joy, amazement - you name it! George was the kind of tour guide you only wish for. Kind, caring, exceptionally knowledgeable about EVERY aspect of the almost 10 hour tour from Page to White Pocket and back. We saw condors, feral horses, chipmunks and witnessed the most incredible sandstone formations with the variety of color. A once in a lifetime experience for sure. Thanks for a great day, George. We’ll never forget it or you! PS-listen to them when they tell you it will be hot, drink your water, wear a hat and long sleeves!!
Our tour guide George was friendly, informative, and such a delight during our tour to White Pocket. This was a great alternative to trying to drive and figure out the area ourselves. The price was well worth the tour, history and information about the area, and enjoyable company while exploring the beauty that is White Pocket. We would 100% recommend this tour!
Jim, thank you! We saw the mist beautiful spots of our planet. Safe 4x4 drive, good arrangements, and helping me up the challenging hills. A wonderful experience to never forget.
Three of us used Seeking Treasure Adventures to see the Wave and White Pocket via a private tour. Our guide Jim was incredible! I had a laundry list of 2⁰ sites to see near the Wave. I was hoping we could see 3 - 4 of about seven that I had on my list. Jim not only took us to all seven ... but also shared some interesting geological information about the areas we visited and showed us a few Native American artifacts (including pictographs and pectroglyphs). He also took on us routes that we would not have attempted on our own. We were ALL thrilled with how Jim expanded our comfort zones. Thank you!
We had an awesome day exploring South Coyote Butte with Jim. He was knowledgeable and fun with a great sense of adventure and encouragement for our love of the area. We climbed and hiked to our heart’s content while learning about the topography and history of ancient peoples. Loved seeing the dinosaur footprints. Very enjoyable tour and we would highly recommend.
Hiking can be as easy or challenging as you want- Really beautiful otherworldly place Nearest rest area about an hour away The 4WD in deep sand was fun- we were very impressed by our guide’s capable driving-
This tour was well worth it. The location is about a 2 hour off road drive from the highway. George did a great job getting us there. The landscape is unlike any we have ever seen before.
100000000/10 I would recommend this tour anyone and highly recommend a guide for this area. Expect a bit of a car ride with amazing scenery and off roading through sand. Expect expert knowledge of the area. Expect unreal scenery with out of this world views. Kids 7-10 years old absolutely loved it. Great photo ops I cannot praise the tour offered to us by Yermo and George enough. They went above and beyond with our entire group (4 adults, 5 kids). They met us at our interests and abilities. They are so knowledgeable and well known in the area. We truly had the expert! Per the 10 yo “it was experience of a lifetime.” I have not been to the wave but have been told this is superior. If you are reading this then that means you are considering it - my advice is to book it!! You will not be disappointed. To Yermo and George, thanks for an incredible day we will never forget and the new friendship. Cheers to hoping cross paths again! People like you make vacations great.
