Despite being considered the "Galapagos of North America", Channel Islands National Park only sees a fraction visitors compared to more popular parks like the Grand Canyon and the Great Smokey Mountains. In this video, Geoff and Alexa travel to Santa Cruz Island, part of the Channel Islands National Park, to explore the rugged island and try to understand why people don't visit this hidden gem off the coast of California. -- Chapters: 0:00 - Galapagos of North America 1:01 - Traveling to the Channel Islands 2:58 - Where Are the Channel Islands? 4:44 - The Island Effect 5:38 - The History of the Chumash People 7:41 - Experience on Santa Cruz Island 9:00 - Starting Our Hike 11:40 - The Island Fox 13:11 - The Pygmy Mammoth 13:57 - The Other Channel Islands 15:22 - A Brief Snack Break 16:37 - Montañon Peak 17:45 - Geography Trivia 19:04 - An Empty National Park 21:43 - Back to Where We Started 22:41 - What's Next? -- This video was filmed in January 2025.
