Hiking the Trans-Catalina Trail from Avalon to Twin Harbors
zhlédnutí 759Před rokem
I hiked 25 miles from Avalon to Twin Harbors on Catalina Island, California. The trail is a well maintained backpacker highway with ample reservable campgrounds. This Spring (2023), the Island was particularly green due to the high winter rainfall. Trans-Catalina Trail Info: hikingguy.com/hiking-trails/best-la-hikes/trans-catalina-trail-tct-hike-guide/

Backpacking Thousand Island Lake in the Sierra Nevada
How long for each trail, back and forth?
@@heyhey3185 it was a loop hike, about 7 miles in total!
How long it took you to do mount picachos?
Only about 90 mins to the top. But I made it a loop and walked over to the Mount Britton Tower as well, totaling about 3 hours for the full trip.
@@spencermoritz3510 Just to clarify. Did it take you an hour and a half to get from the parking lot to the Picachos observation platform? The forestry website says that it is 0.2 miles. We are pushed for time and would love to see it, but we are unsure if we have 3 hrs.
Ever been to Razz Lake? I guess there is an upper & lower one but which one we were at back in the day (1972) I have no way of knowing now. I had thought all these years that there was only one. To get to it we had to check the map sinc e there was no trail up to it from the switchback trail we were on. It was not difficult to find as the route to it uphill took only about 15-20 minutes. From the ridge north of the lake one eventually has a view of the Matterhorn. Apparently there is or was a non technical scramble along a ridge that separates the Matterhorn from Sacagawea Peak. Would be great to try that sometime. These are the 2 highest Wallowa Peaks, apparently.
Well done! Beautiful video. I want to hike there.
Great video man! Adding this hike to my list!
The park no longer requires a reservation. Anybody can visit El Yunque now.
Really well done video. Great intro! So much beautiful scenery there.
Mi aventura de mañana 🚦💯🌸🤙🏾💚⛰️freedom 🙌🏾gracias por tu video excelente 🍀
Great hike! Thanks
Beautiful!
Beautiful scenery! Thank you for sharing
@spencermoritz3510 I would love to speak to you about your video of Hiking Wedge Mountain outside Leavenworth, Washington!
@spencermoritz3510 my daughter and now son-in-law were engaged 3 years ago right around the same area in your movie (appr 6:43). They are now expecting a baby. I have been searching the internet for a high quality photo of this area when i came across your video. I was wondering if you happened to take any still shots? 6:43
Great video! Quality is amazing and I just love your drone transitions!!!
we just did the loop, opposite direction. lesson learned : don't take your packs up to eagle cap. UGH! beautiful trek! We also stopped at Embers! we ate everything!
Thank you! 😍
Gorgeous video, the scenic shots are wonderful, nicely edited with the music, a relaxing and engaging tour. Some more narration about how the hike was going, how you were feeling, progress etc would be interesting too.
I love rampart Lakes, I hope you have been to Alta Mountain, It’s also beautiful.
Yes I have! The entire valley has loads to do. Hibox is a really fun scramble with a perfect view of the Cascade crest.
@@spencermoritz3510 I really want to do Hibox, but I recently got an injury on my ankle so I am hoping it heals fast.
@@spencermoritz3510 do you have a Hibox hike video that I can watch?
I've done it twice but unfortunately do not have a video. I believe the Channel Outside & Stuff has a good video of their time up though!
@@spencermoritz3510 ok thanks
Good times! Awesome video!
I saw you posted this 4 months ago and I was thinking that there is no way the it looks like that in March. Saw the description - makes waaay more sense. We did this one by camping at the tarn between the two weeks and making it an overnight, second day was still long. walking the ridge between the two had so much elevation gain and drop.
Hey Casey!!! Yeah, I saw your post on Peakbagger for the Craggies. You did it during that crazy heat wave we had two years ago. My sister and I hiked it in early fall last year... we had planned to traverse over to West Craggie and get both but we were short on daylight so we opted to just do Big Craggie that day. We went back a month ago (June 2023) and got West Craggie which I felt was much easier that Big Craggie... less chossy and a more enjoyable route. Maddy and I are both working through the Bulger list... although she is more hardcore than me... I only have 15 or so...
Looks beautiful, love it
Beautiful video. Really enjoyed seeing both the scenery as well as the solitude. Very nice!
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed your cameo in the first chapter! :)
@@spencermoritz3510 I did notice the cameo. Very nice.
Absolutely beautiful!
Opening shots are beyond spectacular my friend, what a beautiful video! Epic scenery! 🔥🔥
Sick!!! Just a measly 5800 feet of gain! The 2 of you are beasts for knocking that one out! Way to go!
WOW!!! Epic video Spencer!!! What an absolute treasure to be able to look back on this footage. You did an excellent job of capturing the island through your lens. Thank you again for sharing - it was a joy to meet you here.
Holy cow!!! Epic video Spencer!!! Very well executed - I've got to add this one to my bucket list. Very glad we were able to connect on Catalina - cheers!
Thanks Ben! Eagle Cap blew me away too! Felt like a mix of the Sierras and the PNW. And yes! Super glad we connected on Catalina! The video of that trip will be out soon and we can both relive that adventure.
Beautiful video and love the time-lapse of the rain storm on the water. I'm considering a trip to this same area, so appreciate the beta!
It's a fantastic area... we basically did this loop minus Sacajawea Peak. We camped at Horseshoe lake the first night and Glacier Lake the 2nd night. www.alltrails.com/trail/us/oregon/hawkins-pass-glacier-pass-eagle-cap-matterhorn?u=i&sh=bqfqy4
How far was it to the summit from where you ditched your packs?
It was about 2000’ and maybe 2 miles. A very obvious trial all the way to the top.
@@spencermoritz3510 Thank you. Decent rise over run.
Beautiful
Great video, what type of camera did you use?
This trip was actually all filmed on an iPhone 13! But I’ve since upgrades to a Song a7s3!
Really great video. Excellent footage. I was unfamiliar with Eagle Cap Wilderness. Now I want to go!! Only critique I would add is that you should say more about exactly where you are -- what lake, trail name, etc. Keep up the good work!
Good idea! Gonna start adding more voice overs and text to the videos. BTW we did this route minus Sacajawea Peak. www.alltrails.com/trail/us/oregon/hawkins-pass-glacier-pass-eagle-cap-matterhorn?u=i&sh=bqfqy4
Spectacular video! We did basically this exact route but the opposite direction, I think we even stayed at the same campsite on Horseshoe lake. The eagle caps completely blew us away, can't wait to take another trip out there. Tons of great trails in there
Eagle Cap exceeded my expectations as well. Felt like a PNW version of the Cal Sierras. Very cool with tons of well established trails. A real playground!!!
We seem to have similar taste in mountains! Did this a couple years ago, such a cool and underrated mountain. Your weather was a bit clearer than I had, amazing views of the crest. My route was a little different, I came up the road/trail to the north to make a loop out of it. I traversed over to Hawkins East/The Thimble as well which was an awesome scramble. That ridge on the hike back you commented on may have been my favorite section, so beautiful. Love that area, keep up the adventures!
Thanks for watching! When I was there I saw two guys parasailing off the peak! Great views of Stuart from here as well. If you haven’t climbed Esmeralda before give it a go. It’s similar to Hawkins
@@spencermoritz3510 yeah that's been on my list, the teanaways are a great place for peak bagging!
Sweet adventure! This mountain has interested me ever since we did a backpacking trip on the nearby Billy Goat Trail. Hope I can get to this one, seems like a cool spot to cowboy camp up high as well. 👍
I loved Big Craggie. Very remote and not too challenging but has that Pasayten wilderness feel. I will go back for West Craggie in the future as we didn’t get it on this trip.
@@spencermoritz3510 yeah any day in or around the Pasayten is a great day!
Beautiful location. Can you share the name of the condo/apt you stayed at?
Thanks for watching! We stayed at an Airbnb called D’esire in the zona romántica.
Great video, thank you for sharing. Were you staying in the Loft 268 building? We will be staying there for the first time in a few weeks
Great video! Where is this trailhead at??
North Fork Entiat TH, approach coming from Wenatchee.
Cool video! Did you get to see any wildlife on your hike?
I did this hike for my 50 mile hike twice while I was in high school for the Boy Scouts. I remember the highlight of the trip was sticking my head in the glacier water lake and eating at Taco Bell in la grande at the end of the week lol. Really cool video and thanks for sharing.
Nice done! The time-lapse portion and Horseshoe Lake is wonderful, as is the alpenglow shot at Glacier Lake. I did a different loop in Eagle Cap in 2017, but hit many of the spots you did. The view of the Matterhorn and the lakes basin from Eagle Cap and Glacier Lake in the other direction are truly awe inspiring. Great memories.
Eagle Cap was stunning! I think it's one of Oregon's best keep secrets!
Amazing video thanks for posting this is in my bucket list good pizza i lve close by!!!
Wenatchee Valley Brewing Company is bomb! I go there whenever I’m in town! Thanks for watching!
Great job. I normally get a eagle cap summit in every year, I do a dayhike from two Pan TH. Looks like I need start earlier and get glacier in. Looks you guys handle the down hill well, and the bugs all smiles. Share more so we smile as well.
Well done! Looked like a great adventure! Especially enjoyed your close up shots of wildlife and flora. The astrophotography shot was awesome too! Thank you for sharing your experience on this trail with us, along with the beautiful views. 👍
Enjoyed the trip. Could you share which month you made this trip and what the temp conditions would be in late Sept. Thanks..!
Thanks for watching! We went in early August. Temps were cool in the mornings (45F) and warm in the afternoons (75F).
Late Sept, prob 40F in mornings and maybe afternoon high of 60. Prep needs be open 30 to 70, with possible snow. Maybe dont happen but everyone once in while it does
Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the video, great views and gained a sense of the area. Making plans to backpack in late Sept, may make this a destination.
Great job! Went to Eagle cap last July, going back in two weeks. You are doing great work. Keep it up! You have another subscriber.
Eagle Cap greatly exceeded my expectations. Incredible country out there! Thanks for watching!
I see the video was posted in July, was that when you hiked this?
Yes! Hiked July 24th this year!
@@spencermoritz3510 So I am going to be in a group of 13 this weekend near Rosyln / Cle Elum. We are looking to do a partial day hike somewhat close (1 hr drive) to this area. Any ideas? This hike is too much towards the end with the steep slopes. Dont want to loose any of the 13 or sprain ankles. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
@@JeepsterBen Try Lake Ingalls in the Teanaway. Excellent views of Mount Stuart! And not too challenging so hopefully all 13 can make it.
I haven’t hiked this area yet, looking forward to it!
New sub! Liked 🤩👍👏👏😉
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful views! Did you see any wildlife? How do you get to the trailhead? Is it up the long road past the lake past Salmon LA Sac ?
Thanks for watching! No wildlife on this particular hike but I’ve seen mountain goats up on these peaks before. The TH was past Salmon La Sac, great road, but dirt past the Salmon La Sac campground.
Last month I popped the tire on my truck out at entiat... Put a bit of a damper on my exploration... I can't wait to go back! Awesome vid thanks for the share!
Thanks for watching! The beauty of the Entiat region surprised us all. Hoping to go back and climb Pinnacle Mountain soon!
Wow the landscapes there are truly amazing! Such vibrant colors! Very enjoyable share.
Thanks for watching!
