I did a few nights in Desolation about 6 years ago and camped one night on the east shore of Lake Aloha. Definitely one of the most scenic places I've ever pitched a tent. Just came back last weekend from Emigrant Wilderness and the vast exposed granite landscape in the mid-Sierras makes for astoundingly beautiful lakes.
Aloha Lake was also the place where bears came by to investigate and play with our bear cans. We made the same mistake you did by placing our cans kinda close to the water, but we paid for it by having the bear can roll into the water when the bear was done playing with it. Prevailing wind kept the can near shore (lucky), but it partially filled with water. Only a couple items were ruined (also lucky) as everything else was in original sealed packaging. From that day onward, I've always put my bear can in a place where the bears can play or stomp on it, but the can won't roll into water or off a cliff.
Glad you were able to make it out this way and had a great time. DW is now full of smoke from the Mosquito Fire and the first snow of the season arrived. Timing was in your favor.
Wonderful, just wonderful boys. Poor Kona
Desolation Wilderness is beautiful! A couple years ago, we did a short one-nighter to Grass Lake, which is a couple miles east of Lake Aloha. One of these days, we'd like to try to do the Tahoe Rim Trail.
Really well done video in all aspects Kevin - great composition. Beautiful drone shots, editing, music, and trail footage. One of your best imho. Enjoyed watching and really noticed the quality. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Beautiful! As always, a great video from you guys. Definitely going to have to check this place out! So cool looking!
I just did this very similar hike last month, it was awesome seeing the beautiful scenery once again ))) thank you
Sweet hike boys! 🥾🍻
Epic landscape!
Nice to see you out West, I'm glad you avoided the wildfires.
We got lucky with Desolation
Beautiful location!!! I love the honesty. Im here for all the doggie content🤩🤩🤩
Nice scenery and Cali is interesting topi. Glad to see the dog was cared for 🐾🦴
Beautiful video! Thx for the views.
Great video. Great trip so far.
I head up Horse tail falls or Echo every year to Ropi lakes It is my favorite area to take a few days and fish
I did the same hike this summer. Most epic hike I've done yet
Nice, you're in my neck of the woods. Welcome!
Beautiful trip and place fellas
I was up there backpacking that same week too! Aloha is zone 33 I thought?? I camp there a lot since I live in Sacramento. Good stuff man!!
🎉👏👏👏 Hiking content! 🙌 love me a bit of SBO. Gorgeous spot, 😢 far from me 🇦🇺. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
Welcome to my stomping grounds. I hike in Desolation almost every week.
Great footage. Any opinions about only using one hiking stick?
Ruffed grouse have scared me more than anything else when backpacking!
funny cuz in 2021 i did meeks bay to echo lake. our first camp was your last
Nice 😁
Grouse always get me!!
what do you mean permit? to camp in the woods?
Great trip video! Looks like you guys have been picking up some tips and tricks from Adventure Archives your videography and scene transitions etc are getting better all the time.
lol those egg rolls eh?
Are you flying a drone in a wilderness area?
These comment get old. Mind your own.
Arcana - I commented on this in another comment. No drones were taken/used on this trip. It’s a fair question.
Drones in a Wilderness?
@@tommybewick Desolation Wilderness is NOT a national forest. It literally has Wilderness in the name. If it was a national forest, it would be called Desolation Forest (which it is not)
they do this constantly. thomas you are slow.
Still sucks to have a bunch of drones flying overhead so someone can have "B" roll content for their CZcams channel. Wait till there's 20 of them flying over you at Aloha.
@@justwalking1167 guarantee it was kevins idea.
@@82300sd it's in the eldorado national forest.
I have the same color Patagonia Capilene 😂Awesome video. Ill be there in October to Twin lakes.
They were on sale, it’s a solid shirt
Lots of dogs tear their feet up on those rocks. Please be careful.
⚡👍⚡👏⚡
Another off-leash dog in an area that requires them to be leashed.
Drones, an off-leashed dog and bear canisters placed feet from a lake. SMH.
Yup!!! Sh - it Howdy!!! 🤠🤣
Cbd oil
The wilderness act prohibits motorized vehicles in wilderness areas, that includes aircraft and drones 8:10
Oh my, the drone troll/police !
@@safromnc8616 I love the Schill Brothers and their channel, but they should know better. Their channel is large enough to set an example for everyone else that watches. Others might watch this and think it's ok to fly drones at Desolation Wilderness. What if the Schill Brothers leaves litter or doesn't practice leave no trace principles? Someone's gotta call them out on it
@@82300sd agreed. Love the channel but this perpetuates not following the rules!
they do this constantly (for years) why did you start complaining now
these dudes are not "example setters"
....
lol yikes dudes. i can say me and my dog have been to this exact place.
I didn’t know until someone told me but those alpine trails with all that exposed granite are hard on a dog’s paws. Don’t know if that was the issue or not but on anything longer than a few miles up there, I recommend paw covers.
The dog should carry her own stuff
1:45 OH YES THE ANUAL WIEGHING OF THE PACKS..SEEMS A LITTLE LATE CONSIDERING ITS SEPTEMBER.
