You’ve always been a straight shooter but I’m especially loving the new, “No F’s left to give” attitude 😀
Always had a bell on my mountain bike for approaching from behind. I have always slowed down and many times stopped to let hikers or horseback riders pass by and took the opportunity to exchange pleasantries as they pass. I don’t understand this “get out of my way” mentality... at... all. Great video, as always, Darwin.
10,000 THANK YOU for the BELL.
Right of way .. Horses then hikers then bikers.
Our entire family watched this today and we all feel *aah* and ended up planning a hike together for 2021. The footage is Amazing! Morning ppl too 👨👩👧👧 who loves to start early and hear the world wake up
Beautiful as usual! No apologies needed - i always look forward to your work! Your rant on mountain bikers was spot on. Many lack basic trail courtesy too, which is unfortunate. I try to set a good example when I ride.
I will probably never buy a bell , but I will slow down, say hi, and be considerate/polite to others. Plus whomever is going uphill gets the right away regardless of what your doing. I hike and bike pretty equally and want everyone to have an amazing experience on the trail. Love the videos and all the public lands you hike. Thanks for the videos!
Also, as someone pointed out ponies do have the right away always, so they don't get scared. Happy trails!
Why won't you buy a Bell? Please do. NO, Bikes yield to Hikers. Bikes yeild to Horses. Hikers and Bikers yield to Horses. No matter UP or DOWN HILL
@@jhonyermo my voice works well. You pointed out some things I left out. Thanks.
Thank you Darwin for showing us the beauty of all of these trails you love to hit the mountains the airs the blue skies I could just smell the fresh air
Glad you enjoyed it!!! 🤙❤️
Thank God! I thought you wouldn't post anything again this week lol. (If you need to take another break don't think twice and just do it though, I'll always wish you all the best)
Sorry about not getting this episode last week... Been crazy busy on the road with the Public Lands Film! 🤙
@@DarwinOnthetrail nothing to be sorry about. I've been following the project on Instagram and thought maybe that was the reason you didn't upload before. Btw what you've shown there is really nice as always!
@@DarwinOnthetrail good for you for spending your time doing what really matters to you. Seriously.
No need to apologize, Darwin. You go do you on the Film. We’ll be here.
When ya hit the CT after being on the CDT it feels like your walking on one of those flat escalators they have in airports
Truth! I spent $5 on a bell. After visiting SF I was impressed by how common bike bells are. Whenever I ride on road or fire roads now in So Cal, I let people know I’m coming. Nice thing about a lot of hiking trails in the San Gabriels, no bikes.
I like the music on this one. It’s seems like a somewhat newer direction maybe? Nonetheless, well done, keep it up 👍
Yes loving the added music
I mountain bike fairly often, but I really hate when mountain bikers EXPECT hikers to step off to the side every time. As a hiker, I do step off to the side on most occasions. However, when the trail is narrow and stepping off means stepping in water or heavy weeds or tons of mud or into awkward blow downs, the bikers always get the TFS treatment and honestly, they usually understand.. As you say, a bell would be exceptionally valuable, too.
Hey, the feet are the smallest vehicle and the smallest vehicles DO have the right of way...
I have greatly appreciated the bell on bikes the very VERY few times they have been used. I will more biker would please use them. WTF?
❗ STOP… 🛑
Being such a Super Salty Susan will you...
And start trying a bit harder to be an Awesome & Accepting Annabelle 😉👍🏻
I have never experienced this myself with a Biker but had a guy the other day give me a mean look because he was on a trail run towards me on a somewhat narrow trail and completely expected me to jump off the cliff side to make way for him. haha! But then again maybe I did something stupid and didn't realize it.
I watched about 3 days through the great south west an honestly I loved I am now doing research on how and when I can hike this amazing trail so many people seem to be passionate about I juts wanted to say thank you so much for this amazing film and showing how much people can and how one person can change the lives of thousands so thank you and thank you to everyone who helped make this trail a possibility
This was like deja vu to watch. I mirrored these same 4 days in 2019. Just past the firehouse day 1, Brookside-McCurdy Day 2, Jefferson creek day 3, Frisco day 4.
thanks for bring us along! The cooling waters of a mountain stream...ahh...refreshing
Yeah I mountain bike as well and most others are considerate. However there are always the ones in team jerseys that think they own the trail as their personal race track and have no consideration for others. Sucks and makes us all look bad.
When I am on the trail with my mountain bike and I see hikers I always let them pass it's just considerate that way especially when they have children or puppies I just let them go I got no problem waiting on the side
Thanks Darwin, did the CT last year, and this is bringing back all the good memories!
Awesome job as usual Darwin! When I say, "I Slept like a baby" it means I cried all night and pooped my pants. Never good on the trail.
😂😂😂
LMAO
😅
Ha!
I love these series. Have it popped up while working and your voice is so calming to listen to. Thank you.
The beauty and detail makes up for any delay. God Bless
THIS is why I watch you Darwin!! I know it is reviews, tutorials, and Q&A's that support you guys but THIS.....THIS is why you rock!!! Gorgeous man!
Beautiful! Like most of the commenters, I completely agree with your rant about mountain bikes. Get a bell, or at least holler, "Bike coming!" BEFORE your front wheel almost runs up the back of my leg.
Love your videos Darwin! Inspired me to get a guidebook and start planning my trips for next summer :)
Thanks! ❤️
"sorry for the delay"
Art takes times
If your upcoming doc is anything like your videos, I bet it is going to be just freaking awesome! Great video!
Having a working bell on your bicycle is a legal requirement here in Britain, but its amazing how many people on very expensive mountain bikes choose to ignore that here, maybe mountain bikers are cyclings equal to the roads BMW driver, as over here BMW drivers are unable to get the indicator lights to flash when they turn a corner.
Great job filming.....like your new relaxing approach to hiking .....trek safe
Thanks for the “share the trail” PSA!
There you go. Hiking the CDT. 👍🏼👍🏼
😂
Yr throu hike videos r food for my soul...i wish i could do more of what u do
Santa Monica mountains have trail etiquette signs (hikers yield to horses, MB's yield to everyone) that usually get ignored by the younger MB'ers but strictly obeyed by the older guys. I once stepped off the trail because I heard the bells coming and had to insist that they go ahead.
No need to apologize! Always happy to see your videos on the trail and I'll take them as they come.
Thanks for sharing what you love!
Love your videos you capture the beauty of your hikes. It got me itching to get back out there! The wife and I next hike will be at Rae Lake Loop in King's Canyon
You're really starting to archive the balance of showing the trail but at the same time telling your own personal story. Amazing as always.
I get ridiculously excited when the new episodes come out! LOL! I can NOT WAIT until my turn next summer!!!!
Thanks again for sharing!

Agreed the mountain bikes out there often give no warning to hikers. We hiked Mt Elbert last year , and had the same situation. ( Our family lives in the springs so out there often) I live in Florida and I road Cycle. Now if any of those Mountian bikers were walking across to the beach and I came wizing by them, I am sure they would not be pleased. 😂
Thanks for the great videos. We are hiking the CT in 2023 for the hubby’s 40th!
Don't apologize for the delay. You edit outstanding hiking videos. They are worth the wait.
My husband and I were trying to hike a mix use tail this summer. 1/4 mile in we turned and went back. There were so many mountain bikers we couldn't walk more than 30 seconds without stepping off trail. It was the most stressful 1/2 mile in my life.
Oh boy, I can relate to your rant about mtn bikers. Maybe we should hand out bells to these folks. :/
Loved the film, looking forward to your next one!
Absolutely gorgeous terrain.. thanks Darwin for bringing us along...
Great hike Darwin! Thanks for taking us along with you :)
Thanks for tagging along! 🤙
Well done! I am consistently impressed by your ability to put down big miles and still manage to capture good content. Really dig the style of the Colorado Trail videos.
Love watching your video. Please keep doing more. 😁😎👍
Shout out from Japan! Interesting series so far. Makes me miss home (Canada). Keep on trekking! Cheers!
Seems like your last few videos have had a more "cinematic" feel to them. Entertaining as always! Looking forward to the Public Lands film. 👍
Nice Darwin. Preparing for my AT thru hike and been watching the vids for a few yrs now, done abt 500 miles in section hikes over the years and you're a great person to learn from and live vicariously thru while I dial in my gear and get ready. Hike on and good luck out on the trail !!!
I have sectional hiked the CT segment 1-9 twice now and FULLY agree about the bikes! Weekends are horrific and no one has a bell.
I am definitely enjoying and looking forward to this series. Love the music choices and gets you right in the thru-hiking feels.
Thank you so much Darwin for showing the viewers what how beautiful the CT is and how great our area here in Colorado is!!!
So wish our paths had crossed, But the CT was awesome this year minus the smoke.
So glad to see this
Props on the CDT crossing 😉👍😁
Loved this, loved knowing you enjoyed our beautiful trail
Thanks for the bike rant, same issues here! No need to apologize for the delays, you're doing important work to help protect public lands.
I quit watching pro sports to watch these videos....much better...thanks Darwin!!!!
rad dude! also, never apologize for "delays" on your videos. you don't owe anyone watching your material anything, especially since you're occupied creating a new work! I can safely speak for thousands of people in saying that we appreciate your passion and devotion to the outdoor community and are thankful for all of the inspiration and knowledge when it comes to this culture. cheers dude!
Superb film/camera angle/ shots
The delay was worth it. Thanks for sharing such great stuff with us!
I wish I was there. Peace.
Me Too 😉
26 miles isn't big miles 😳... it is for some of us, lol. Ah well, HYOH of course. Loving this series, thanks for sharing your adventures Darwin, always a pleasure to watch!
No worries for the delay Darwin! Waiting for your videos is always worth it! Can't wait to see when you are deep in the Colorado moutains :D Stay safe and hike on!
7:00 Hard agree on the "spend $20 for a bike bell or crank up your radio so you don't run over hikers on the trail" It's a rare day for me to hike (day hiking mostly) and not get almost run over by the guys whizzing by me. A loud radio is a polite warning for others sharing the trail.
Back to watching now.
NO it is not a polite warning and how would anyone know it is a BIKE? And LNT and get a Bell. Please. And $20? What are they titanium?
Loud radio? I have never encountered loud music from a biker yet upon reflection could see how such an audio lambastment could cause me to lose the grip on my hiking pole giving rise to a unfortunate trajectory up or down trail. I mountain bike and find my tiny little $10 bell quite pleasant and much better than saying "on your left" t o fellow hikers all the time. There really are some nice affordable bells at your LBS.
@@geraldhenrickson7472 when you are hearing impaired and a runny bell doesn't elicit a response but a radio does, wouldn't you rather not hit a hiker and damage your $4k bike by hitting them, injuring you and them? Not everyone on the trail is on a bike going 15mph.
And yelling "On your left" two seconds before you whizz by them at 15mph isn't polite either as an advanced warning. Given Covid has brought so many more out on the trail and many aren't in prime physical health, isn't it wisdom to protect yourself from injury and damage to your equipment by giving better notice?
@@jhonyermo presumably, it's not a horse and not someone hiking based on speed. Maybe a runner which is when "On your left" is a benefit but mtb going fast? Not quite enough warning especially if someone isn't 100% focused in their surroundings. Hurting someone or yourself or your gear because "it's impolite" to warn someone far in advance opens up many potential problems.
No need to apologise Darwin, keep up the good work and have fun with the documentary.
Hi from Romania, Darwin :) Great video. Thank you for the inspiration.
Simply beautiful
FYI....NO APOLOGIES NECESSARY!!!
I can't wait to watch your documentary!
Omg I've made the same rant but about cyclists riding on the sidewalk in Toronto! I have nearly been run over so many times by people who are too freakin cheap to buy a bell. Little do they know (or care probably) it'll cost them a pretty hefty fine for not having a bell. $85!!! Probably better to just buy the bell!
Always great to see your hikes, your videos are inspiring! One day I hope to see you on the trail!
Man to be out on trail!!! That's just awesome Darwin thanks for the take along!!!
The video quality on these last few videos has been unreal still keep getting better and better!
The Colorado trail is my favorite trail.. the collegate loop at twin lakes is a great hike!!!
Your videos are getting so cinematic! I love it! You are really honing in your craft
No need to apologize for being busy looks like lovely country
beautiful video, hope the film is coming along well
I am with you on the Bikes. I hiked The Way of St. James and those bikers were worse than flies. They would go pass me at a high rate of speed and I wouldn't know they were behind me. Yes buy a bell for your bike!!!!!!!!
Great vid as always Darwin! The scenery and the music you chose really adds some zen to my day!
Hikers have right of way!!!!
LMAO "Troy Lee jerseys"! Im guilty of this but at least I always yell "rider behind", "on your left/right".
Love ya, darwin. Been watching forever. I just don't get the high mile days. To each their own
Great video. Always enjoying watching them. Keep em coming.
!!Ring ring!! 🛎
That camp spot was nice. The sound of the water is nice to fall asleep too. As a hiker, mountain biker, snowmobile rider and ATV enthusiast, trail etiquette is of the utmost of importance for everyone’s mutual benefit. They should be yelling “on your left or right”. Some people don’t understand that means the side there coming up on and sometimes step the wrong way. Regardless a warning is appropriate. Don’t worry about your lack of videos, I’m sure you’re doing something good with the documentary. Keep doing what you do 😊❤️🇺🇸❄️☃️🛷🔥⛺️🌄
Great work! What an inspiration as always. Don't be sorry, you offer valuable content and only thing we have tio do here is to consume it. If it takes a bit longer, it is as it is.
Darwin! Thank YOU so much about the BELL rant. Nothing says BIKE so much as a BELL. Please bikers, get a bell. TIA
Great vid as always, thx 4 sharing....greeting from Indonesia 👍
1:30 Need to get some sun on those buns, son!
6:25 You're just skirting the border of the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness along the Timberline Trail. Looking over Texas Creek and Taylor Park. Yes, that's a multi-use trail. I was up there in late June this year and had to step off for numerous, noisy motorbikes. Not one bicycle tho'.
during that rant, there was quite the lighting change.. I think you left out quite a bit!!! HAHA!!!
Cant wait to see more. This trails on the bucketlist before i leave CO.
I have been waiting for this hehe. love it. Happy trails!
Great video Darwin. Keep em coming.
Love these videos, great music and the videography is amazing! You are so talented!!!
The quality of these videos are amazing, thanks for sharing!!
Don't be sorry for when you post things we get to view for free 😀
Thanks for sharing the journey.
Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Love your posts! I'm always waiting for your next one!
Nice...Way too Go Darwin..
This trail looks so beautiful!
I find your videos so relaxing.
Love it! I am East Coast but spend a lot of time in that area hiking Mt. Quandry and other great trails. My fav trails. I agree with you on the Mt bikers, way too many now and need that bell! Thanks for the vid.
HaHa, you reminded me of Cameron from "Ferris Buellers Day Off" in the first scene.
The quality of your videos has improved by leaps and bounds over the years. This video is of cinematic quality! If it takes you a few weeks to put out work like this, I will happily wait. But I’ll watch regardless. Hike on!
Ur day 3 camp, if you go upstream a bit there is a decent swim hole 😃. Looks dry ☹️ ( grasses ) but still beautiful. I live in AZ but don't know y !!😅
Should be in Co !!!
Guess I'll have to wrk on that. But till then.....
Keep on rocking the free world ☺️
Respect
Great video, thanks.
