    My Dear Friend Catherine, Well worth the wait. Time in the mountains seems to move soooooo, slowly. The mountains seem to have an infinite ♾️ time they seem to stand as the sentinels and the guardians as time passes around them, they are not in what they protect so dearly. They move in a totally different time then the earth itself. It was a long time ago in a different place. I went up for a weekend trip. I went in in Colorado and came out a year l8r in Wyoming. Ofcoarse between the time I went in and came out, needless to say I was 2 different people. First thing I remember was when did we, as a people become so noisy. It is almost obscene and to say the least offensive. You have come so far in such a short period of time Catherine, U should be so proud of yourself. Time in the mountains change a person, in ways no one else will ever know. So in closing, you are coming into your own little lady. As always may U always have a warm gentle wind at your back pushing you forward. May you always be traveling into another beautiful SUNRISE. So many places to see, so little time. 1 AT A TIME.

  • @markpashia7067
    @markpashia7067 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Thanks to both of you for taking us along. I have never been healthy enough to do this. Birth defects, work damage, etc. meant I could only do roadside view and short walks. However my visit to Banff and Lake Louise some years back were awesome. As beautiful as the video is, a camera cannot capture the full awe of those scenes. Anyone who can see it in person should do so. We also spent time in Waterton that summer which again is amazing. The wildfire smoke the summer I was there played havoc with me as you could taste it and it really killed the resolution in the images I took with my Canon 7D camera. This video showed me how much I missed by staying on the roads, but also reminded me of the powerful majesty of the Canadian Rookies. Get there if you can.

      Also six weeks in Alberta really messed with my internal clock. Having light until 11pm confused my system. I remember thinking that going to bed with day light in the window was something I had not done since kindergarten and I was in my sixties.

  • @karwask1
    @karwask1 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Hi Cat, just some thoughts about the use of trekking poles. When you are carrying that heavy weight as in when you are doing backpacking, it's a great thing to have the steadiness and extra support of the 4 point contact which you use all of the time, I see. However, there is much more benefit that can be gained with trekking poles if you know more about the proper use and form. There is a technique that also does a lot to help propel you forward with each step when you know how to coordinate your strides with opposite leg/arms each time. And, this technique also teaches that other than when you are climbing up, you should not be placing your poles in front of you so much. Here's a short video and I'm sure there is a lot more easily found out there that will better explain (only 5 minutes long:). I have no doubt that if you are interested in trying this out, it will greatly improve your hiking experience and take weight off of knees and joints and better distribute the effort. Best of luck with this. czcams.com/video/7q2YwOE4okA/video.html

    Absolutely stunning scenery plus encounters with wildlife to season your experience.🦅🐻🦫🥀🍒🌲Relieved that your Grizzly encounter wasn't a problem. I know you carry bear spray but was surprised you didn't wear bells on your backpacks to alert them. I'm not sure if it helps or not? Anyway, I'm sure your hamburgers, shakes and/or beer was a nice reward at the end. Jenny

    That was amazing spectacular scenery. I'm impressed with how the Canadian government sets up the backpackers with campsites and storage. The grizzly can definitely put a lump in your throat but at least there were no cubs with that grizzly.

  • @richardthorne2804

    In my humble opinion, there’s nothing better than backpacking in hiking, and seeing grizzly bears or wolves. Thats the reason why I love the greater Yellowstone ecosystem, and my favorite mountain range the Wind River. The scenery was amazing.

  • @jaynetabb208

Until next time, be safe and enjoy the burgers.

    I drove the Icefields Hwy the week after that big June snowstorm. I was simply stunned with the scenery! Would have loved to backpack up in those incredible mountains, but too old now. Thanks for much for sharing that amazing hike and scenery with us. I've decided the Banff/Jasper mountains equal the Italian Dolomiti as far a dramatic views! Glad you had such a great hike and Mr. Grizz thought you were boring!

    @hsaurid Před 11 měsíci +5

    Quite the hike. The bear looked calm, not excited so that boded well for hiking past him. The lake afterwards was a cool postcard moment. Sunset was great as well. Sunrises are also a treat, getting up early and watching it come up while one enjoys a morning coffee. Probably the most nervewracking transit was the hike through the head high bush as you don’t know what is a few feet beyond and very easy to pass by a grizzly without knowing it. Thank you, Catherine.

    Another stunning video. One of your best ever. Your videos make Sunday mornings extra special. Thanks so much. Speaking of bears 😁….
    In 2016 I was in Wyoming on a motorcycle traveling west HW26/287 to Tetons NP. There was a river or creek to my left with maybe 10 cars stopped on the left shoulder. I assumed they were looking at a Moose in the water. I pulled to a stop on the right shoulder, shut off the engine. I was not quite even with the first car. Then I notice they are all pointing their cameras in my direction. Huh? I look to my right and about 20 feet up a slope is a very large brown bear munching on berries. Even though it seemed uninterested in me, I did not get my camera out, I thumbed the starter and eased away trying to create as little noise and fuss as I could.

      Hiking alone in the back country is simply foolish. Just a sprained ankle could turn out to be fatal.

    Wow! The scenery was truly epic! The grizzly bear encounter was exciting and that is as close I would ever come close to one. I've been close to black bears and mountain lion but never a grizzly. Great adventure, guys!

    Grizzly Country is real…I’m lucky enough to have visited Canada through my Grandfather who was Canadian… very different to my homeland Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    "STUNNING!" Beyond stunning! Wow! The filming and photography is National Geographic Quality! What an amazing experience and wilderness expedition! Thank you for taking us along! That sucks the Lodge was closed to the general public. What snoots! A cold beer to go perhaps? 😂 LOL

    We flew in about 10 years ago. Truly, one of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen. The lake is 10-15ft lower than when I went, crazy! There is a Dutch family that ran the lodge, don't know if they're still there. It sits at around 7200ft. They're daughter was 14yrs old and climbed the summit. I hope to go back before I'm unable to. Thank you for the video. You've inspired me to take my son's next time.

    Catherine...
    Good morning angel. That was outstanding. This is the masterpiece I was waiting for. Even watching this on my 72-inch TV just doesn't do that kind of scenery justice. As you like to say. Absolutely stunning!!
    Your first grizzly encounter. So how big was the lump in your throat?? I'll never forget that feeling. I run into black bears in Minnesota and the U/P of Michigan more often than you would think. But I know it's not the same as your first grizzly.
    Now I'm going to scold you just a little. I want you to get yourself a 'bear bell' or two. It might seem a little strange. I always wear two. One on my pack and one on my hiking staff. I can tell you from personal experience that there's nothing worse than suprising a bear using the same trail you're on. Especially in those areas of thick brush you were walking through. I just want you to be safe babe. Please think about it.
    I really enjoyed this one. Some of your best work ever!! And at :30-minutes long. Perfect for me. I'm looking forward to seeing video from your seven day trip.
    Have an awesome week sweetheart. Be safe when you're adventuring. See ya, bye.
    Love you. ❤ Randy. 🎹

      Thanks so much Randy. I hear bear bells don't do much. I definitely make noise and yell out a lot. Especially around blind areas. My head is on a swivel so to speak. lol

    • @dutchman6969
      @dutchman6969 Před 11 měsíci +1

      ​@CatherineGregoryAdventures yes I did both, "yelled talking loud" and wore bells as well. 😂
