I hope you didn't stop your fishing because a couple people whined about it. It's your channel and the great majority of us enjoyed the variety while hiking. Do you man and don't let the small percentage change you.
Didn’t bother me - I actually already have fishing trips filmed and in the bag 🤠 Coming soon!!
Every time I plan a trip to the Sierra, I check your channel if you've made a video on it. Lo and behold...
Doing this route in mid September to mark my 30th birthday. I can't think of a better way to celebrate that milestone than out there.
awesome video and thank you for the detail
Wasn't expecting a 2-in-1 video! Awesome as always Scottie, thanks for sharing 💯💯
Thanks gearlist!!
Those bridges are the same ones I crossed in 1972 and later. Did you know Scot that you can easily climb Mt. Banner in a few hours from the backside on the North side from 1000 Island? Mt. Ritter not so easily. I recognized the trails you took. I like the River Trail to Garnet, quicker than the JMT to go fishing when I had a week off. Those lakes in-between are Emerald and Ruby Lakes and they have fish in them as they used to hardly ever get fished. I fished Olaine Lake too.
Appreciate the detail! I need to hike up Mt Banner as it would be so much fun I’m sure. When I have more time off I’ll head back up to the region and spend a few days!🤠
@@Sheety33 It isn't a hike after a certain point, but you do not need to have much climbing experience beyond some rock scrambling.
indeed you can summit banner by accessing north glacier pass to lake catherine. while it is class 2 it involves crossing a glacier and often snow to get to the banner Ritter hump. ice axe and crampons should be used.
mount Davis is also accessible from lake catherine with an easier class 2 scramble. the headwaters to the north fork of the san Joaquin can also be accessed from lake Catherine. it is a mostly class 2 with a bit of easy class 3 but the route finding is difficult. the twin island lakes area is amazing. it's a long trek out via the Stevenson trail to the iron trail but it is beautiful. lots of bears though.
Love this video, I really appreciate all the details about the routes
Beautiful!
Beautiful!! Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Nice production. Thanks
Great video and info
Glad to see you back on the trail bud! Enjoy the overview portion 👍 thanks for sharing!
what a beauty
Great video Scottie, Hope Mama is doing good :)
nice! Been watching for years now - this is one of the best!
Thank you Tom!
Great video. Love this hike (as you can see from the profile Pic). We like to go over to Shadow Lake from Garnet and then back to Agnew meadows. Next time I go we will go Reds meadow to minaret lake, ediza lake, to thousand island, and high trail back to reds. Best of the Sierra in my book.
Wish I could give this 2 thumbs up! Been down most of this same trail in July. Love the format and the editing. Well done.
Thank you!!👍🏻👍🏻
Great idea, I have done Kearsarge pass, Hunter packer lake and palisades glacier this summer , all as day hikes. This loop will make a great end to the summer. Love your vids , keep em coming.
You mentioned some pretty awesome trails - still have not been up to Palisade yet…hmm maybe this summer!
Hi Sheety! It certainly was awesome running into you on the trail. We loved the Ediza lake loop trail! We sure wish we had gotten our picture with you. Jennifer, Tanner, Doug from Columbus, Oh. Happy Trails!!!
Enjoyed meeting you all very much - loved your excitement for the trail! Happy trails and see you in the woods again one day!🤠
I might be the only one but I was hoping for a baby update. I hope you all are doing well and enjoying your time together as a 3 family as we used to say. Cheers
Baby is doing great! Thank you for inquiring. River is already a month old and is growing so quickly. Chuie is doing great and is enjoying being a mother🤠
I've wanted to try the gully from Garnet Lake back down to the River Trail for a long time. I've hesitated because of some pictures I've seen of a couple of sketchy spots, but it looks like you did just fine. I prefer an overnighter though, too long for me as a day hike. Great video.
Yeah the gully is not to bad. Wouldn’t want to hike up from the river as the ascent is significant.
This is what I was looking for, great description and details. I was looking at the wilderness permits, I assume you get the Ansel adams permit if staying overnight
If camping overnight go with the high trail permit
Love your video soooo much! Thank you for sharing! May I ask the brand of your water filter?
Thank you! Sawyer water filter. Link in description.
Unbelievably well made video. This hike looks totally jaw dropping, and you captured everything perfectly. I really appreciate the format of these videos too. And again, how do you do these so fast? I just backpacked Ostrander Lake and it was tough for me. Anyways, keep up the great work!
Thank you. Huge difference between backpacking and day-hiking. The weight of a daypack is minuscule compared to a backpacking backpack, which makes these types of hikes “easy” for me at least. Thanks for the love - I’m enjoying making these videos!🤠
Excellent. No one brings me a long on the trail like your videos do. Beautiful, informative and functional. Thanks.
How late in the year do you think this loop can be done without weather concerns?
Thank you! Through October should be ok…just depends when the snow will come.
Did you park at Agnew?
Yo Sheety33!….great video! I like the format. I feel like you have is the all the goodies in the first ten minutes! I hope everyone appreciates you hiking back to get the tripod on all those shots. You have a knack for composing the trail in different “lines” in the frame. Having someone go through the frame gives each vista a better sense of scale. I’ve been using Gaia maps as well. I like the topology, a lot. Did you start tracking on your phone and upload later to view on desktop? How does that work? And I don’t mind “not fishing” on this hike. It’s a lot to do, with shooting(camera), fishing, hiking, and navigating. Keep it up! Oh…at 18:40, were you wide on the iPhone, or using a GoPro?
Thank you! Tracked with Gaia app on the phone then logged into my desktop account to view the full version of the map in 3D. 18:40 was GoPro 🤠
Hey Scottie, nice to see your new video. Just FYI - your Amazon links never work for me - they just take you to the Amazon home page, not the product page. Happy hiking!
Thank you! Do you live in the US?
@@Sheety33 yup, San Diego
Can you hike Matterhorn peak - in the Sierra Nevada ...
It’s on my hit list 🤠
I wonder if life is better out there than being in the city?
Far better 🤠
@@Sheety33 thank you for your reply. Your words have influenced my decision of what I want my life to be thank you again.
Great hike and video, as usual. This is great timing as I am backpacking the loop including Eliza in a few weeks. I was concerned about water on the high trail but it looks like we should be good. Was this a recent hike?
Any concerns getting parking at Agnew meadows? We are planning to drive in early too. Last question, did you drive up, hike, and drive back the same day?
Keep the vis coming!!
Have a great time and hopefully it’s not too Smokey. Along the river trail about half the streams have water. Yes, my recommendation is go early to Agnew as even at 6:00am the lot is 90% full.
Haha no we stayed in mammoth when I did this hike.
@@Sheety33 haha, was gonna give you an Ironman award.
@@dougcopeland387 have driven home after day hiking Whitney, tho🤠
Wow amazing! What big mountain is that in the background?
Which area in the video exactly?
@@Sheety33 5:06
@@brianuke2301 Banner Peak…the other side is the Yosemite wilderness.
@@Sheety33 It's beautiful! We are planning a road trip, and I will put this on the list of possibilities!
Do you have the GPX for the route you chose?
Yes!
I want to hike this . How much time do I need?
2 weeks to 24 hrs tbh. u can walk up and get a permit. for that day. actually, if it s a day hike, u dont even need a permit.
