Why don’t you read the book instead of listening to a book🙄😂😂

Did this hike (thanks to you) this past weekend w/ a buddy and it was incredible. Keep posting your vids. They help some of us find amazing trips!

2 pearls I’d like to share with you. Blowing up a pack raft sucks unless you use the Flextail pump! We are fans of the Supai Adventure Matkat packraft and came across this amazing little pump. It comes with multiple nozzles so you can use it for your inflatable sleeping pad. Easy peasy! Second, ditch the Sawyer and go to the Katadyn BeFree and a smart water bottle. Some drink directly from the BeFree 1L flexible bottle but I prefer a separate bottle from the filter… I’ll send link to my review of the Flextail in a separate comment… We are looking to do more pack rafting/fishing trips in the future. For now we have primarily used the packraft to get to the other side of the Colorado River to backpack the northern side of the Grand Canyon. Always a rush taking on the mighty CR! Yew!

So they allow camping at that campground? Permit?

Excellent trip Bud!

Lippin walleye, way to give er..HA! Amazing canoe trip, hope to rock it this summer...Keep on rocking it!

Wow! Absolutely beautiful 😍 that trail got a little sketchy (14:07) it made me nervous just to watch you guy's 😬 sheer drop off...well done 👍

Absolutly great video. Gave me great perspective on terrain. I am planning on doing the trail in 2 months in May. Can you please share/advise what kind of shoes to wear? My regular hiking boots? Hiking water shoes? Gym shoes? Please advise. Thank you in advance!🙏

What route did you go on in Henry Coe? Do you have a map link you could send me? Heading out there in 2 weeks.

I agree that a 5.11 type pouch is not needed if the it is stored inside another bag/pack. You can save a lot of weight if you have multiple pouches in your pack.

I'd be eating those trout no freeze dry

California is bad for the environment.

Vo-gel-sang: vo like 'go', gel like 'gal', sang like sang a song. My favorite spot in all the Sierra, went there several times late 80s/early 90s with my Dad, I've taken my kid there several times with his Scout troop, great memories. Sliding down the snow in trash bags above Fletcher Lake... great times.

Good review. I strained to hear some of the audio, but still enjoyed it.

You gotta "reprime" those Sawyers after they've been laying around and dried out. Soak 'em a bit, back flush and you should be good to go. If that doesn't work try soaking in vinegar for 20 min or so and backflush. Oh and that Three Bean meal on night one is Peak Refuel.

I’m still waiting for part 4 of How To Sew A Tarp! Ha!

Kyuuuuula. Trail Sherpa. Nanu Nanu, from Tucson, Arizona!

I’m doing grizzly lake Trinity alps this year! Glad you’re still alive man!

so i did loon lake to wrights via McConnel late aug early sept, bad decision it rained from the base of the loop for 3 days with lightning and flash floods, the trail off rockbound was a creek. i agree the trail was more a basic guideline then a trail.

Great video man. I use to rock crawl out there in my 4x4 on the rubicon trail it was unreal beautiful. Would have liked to see a little more fishing tho

Wow, lots of snow for late July. Nice video. I hiked that area in 1983.

He's alive

great to see you out on the trail again

Nice to c ya buddy…! Been a long time.!!!!👍👍

Long time, thanks for sharing

And one of the missing children shows face!! YAH!!! Seen that guy from Ohio? What about the one in Canada?

Thanks! Be nice if J-Rob was with you, dudes gone awol!

So great to see you are still making videos of your adventures! Thanks for sharing

Kyle ... just buy a pole with a cork handle. Cork floats. My Dad had one and he never had a lot of money, so they can't be that expensive.

29:23 Thank you! If a hiker is so scared of being outdoors and need their mini in-reach on their shoulder strap, turned on, then maybe they should stay home? Some years ago, watching a Matterhorn (swiss) climbing video, the guide asked one of his clients, “Do you feel safe here? If not, you shouldn’t be here.” Bam! The only time I’ve worn my in reach, turned on, was a dicy water or snowfield crossing. Otherwise, like you, in my pack somewhere. Great video. Fyi, fellow MLD user, Duomid XL.

Mr burley !what time of year was this plz ..ty GOD bless

The bird was probably an Osprey

Do you still like the hatchet.

Wow! I found your channel!! First watched you many years ago with robinet portage-camping. Now, after I've scoured the internet and decided desolation is my dream hike, I find you again. Wow!

Damn that looks like 60 pounds of gear. I couldn’t even do that on avalanche gulch.

I like the term 'possibles' far better than EDC. I call my kit my POM Kit (Peace Of Mind).

What month is this? Great video!

This was awesome. Much love

Where can I go over the same map that you are showing? Planning my trip

Did the south loop . The end of your video explaining the loop was spot on. Wish I would have seen your video before doing south loop. It took me and my brother 2 days. Not going to lie. It kicked me in the teeth!!!! Doing North loop soon. Thanks for your advice. Just did counter clock wise to camp 7 and back for conditioning to get ready for North loop.

53:55 - Woot!

it's hard to stay dry tent camping> having an extra tarp or a change of clothes can be the deference between life and death

Moving water above 6k feet in nor cal is pretty safe to drink from my exp

What time of year was this trip?

Do you have a website so I can see your photos while on your hike ? I spent a week on the island and have phenomenal photos, of all 4 sides of the island, I did helicopter tour which was amazing. But I’d love to see your still photos

I was there about 7 years ago myself but at 66 I couldn’t do the full hike, thanks for sharing.

Where exactly did you put your raft in? Did you put in prior to the Northern Terminus? Planning to do this loop in October. TIA

I love my Topo 500 miles are still going strong.
