This video is from my Cirque of the Towers to Fremont trail loop backpacking trip in late September, 2022 in the Wind River Range, WY.
00:00:26 Beautiful drive
00:01:50 Day 1: The adventure begins!
00:03:50 Opening up to great views!
00:14:24 Arrived at Shadow Lake
00:17:47 Day 2: Shadow Lake to Lonesome Lake
00:25:55 Texas Pass
00:34:06 Cirque of the Towers campsite
00:37:35 Day 3: Last day on trail :(
00:40:44 Beautiful Turquoise Glacial Lake
00:43:29 Jackass Pass
00:53:14 Awesome dispersed campsite
00:54:50 Day 4: Headed home…
This place… just wow! Such an amazing experience! Hiked just about 30 miles total with about 4,500’ of elevation gain in 3 days and spent the most incredible 2 nights amongst the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. This hike just constantly rewards you with better and better views and needs to go on every backpacker’s bucket list!
I also found a great dispersed campsite to do some van camping at on my last night that was only about a mile or two from the trailhead. This place is incredibly beautiful and I would probably say this is my favorite mountain range that I have visited. I will DEFINITELY be going back!

Wonderful video of the wilderness. Just the right amount of narration. Please keep making more videos as they are so fun to watch and very inspiring too. Thanks.

Hey, thank you so much! To be completely honest, I burnt myself out a little bit last year and have been enjoying a break from editing, but I’ll be back at it soon! I still have a few videos to edit and I have some awesome trips planned this year! Thanks so much for the support and kind words! 😊

@JoseFernandez-sl2ek 10 месяцев назад

I've seen a gazillion videos and this one is one of the best ones (top 5 for sure) I've ever seen. The amount of milage you accumulated (setting up cameras to give us viewers a sense of the hike) must have been between 1 and 2 miles. Loved every second of this video! Thank you for sharing.

@ManivanAdventures 10 месяцев назад

Wow, thanks so much for the positive feedback! Those shots can get exhausting, but just so worth it for capturing these places the way I want to. This place was so incredible that I just couldn’t put the camera down. Lol Thanks again and I appreciate you watching! 🤙🏼

Thank you so much for this video. I have scoured you tube looking for trail hiking without annoying music that drowns out all sounds of nature, incessant yacking, and cameras primarily focused on the vloggers instead of the incredible views. Subscribed 😊😊

When I'm not hiking, I'm watching hiking videos. Headed to the Cirque in 3 weeks & I have to say hands down you have put together the best video out there. Thanx for all the info & taking me along on your trip🌲

@ManivanAdventures 11 месяцев назад

I appreciate the kind words very much! It was an incredible trip, that’s for sure! I’m actually going back to the Winds at the end of August to check out Titcomb Basin! Enjoy your hike and thanks again! 🤙🏼

How was your hike in the Cirque? I'll be there in 2 weeks.

@charleynorton5116 9 месяцев назад

Our trip was complicated. The rain was unbearable & my son got altitude sickness bad. We only made it to Marms lake but it was amazing in a way. I had myself pumped to a point I'm obviously disappointed. On the other hand I don't hike to make others uncomfortable & am blessed for the experience. Learned a couple lessons & those peaks will be there next year. Enjoy your trip & look forward to yhe video. It will help me through the winter

great day hike. One of my favorites. Well partial day hike half loop. Great video. Makes me want to go back but will now wait until next summer

@ManivanAdventures 8 месяцев назад

This is easily one or my favorites too! A little long for a day hike for me though Lol

@laidbacktraveler2580 Год назад

Whoa, I loved this trek - first time ever seeing anything on it. That climb up the boulders to Texas Pass, I swear I felt the altitude sickness coming on. 😅 This trail has everything a person could want. Amazing camera work and editing as well, you put in some serious miles on this one and captured some paradise...and it shows. Well done and THX for posting it up!

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

I agree about this trail having everything! This was my favorite trip I have gone on so far. Just such a incredible hike. And yes, Texas Pass was no joke. Lol Definitely looks crazier in person too. Had a lot of fun making this video, so thanks again for the kind words! 🙂

I did this same clockwise loop the last weekend of August (2022). First night was at Dad’s (late start). Next year will push on to Billy’s Lake for night one and tackle Texas on fresh legs (wind was brutal when I went up and over). Nice camera work - stay safe

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

Thank you for the kind words! This trip was easily one of my favorites. Definitely nice to have fresh legs for Texas Pass. That was pretty tough with all of my gear on my back. I can’t wait to go back! Happy hiking! 🤙🏼

@ManivanAdventures 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the kind words! And you should 100% do it! No permits and it is one of the most beautiful places I have been to. Either that or Big Pine Lakes in California. Happy hiking and whatever you decide, it is hard to go wrong out west! 🤙🏼

Thanks for sharing. I did the same hike the year before except camped at Dad's Lake and Billy's Lake and hiked out the third day.

It’s an amazing place! Can’t go wrong at any of those lakes really. I can’t wait to go back. Thanks for watching! 🤙🏼

@chicagobackpacker282 Год назад

@@ManivanAdventures The year before I went up by the Green River lakes and Peak Lake and it was just as beautiful. Unfortunately, I got caught in a storm (Labor Day 2020) and had a tree fall on my tent at midnight forcing me to bivy through the rest of the storm. It was an adventure for sure but not enough to keep me away.

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

@@chicagobackpacker282 Wow! Glad to hear that you weren’t hurt. Definitely just have to make the most of it and remember that it will be a hell of a story later on when things like that happen. Lol

@HikingwithGus Год назад

Texas Pass reminds me of Asgard Pass in the Enchantment Lakes area in Washington. 2000 elev gain in 3/4 of a mile.

Oh man, that sounds fun! Lol Have yet to get out to Washington, but I really want to. Appreciate you watching! 🤙🏼

@@ManivanAdventures The Enchantments are a lot like the Winds. But, it's a lottery for overnights. And they are tough to get.

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

Thank you! 🙂 I actually only use my iPhone 13 and a GoPro Hero 7 Black for filming. I plan on getting something better eventually, but I’m definitely happy with the quality I get from what I have. I can actually shoot in 4k with what I have too, but it just takes up so much storage space, so I just shoot in 1080p and 60fps. I can’t wait to go back to explore more of the Winds. Beautiful place! Thanks for watching!

Well, sure like ur production, and will be coming back for more! We also did 3 miles in on the Cascade Canyon trail in the Tetons on the same trip.it was pure gorgeous!

@ematherne11 Год назад

Beautiful! We will hike this trail later this year. Did you take clockwise or counter clockwise route?

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

I did it clockwise and it definitely seemed like the right play. It was honestly a perfect trip. If you have any other questions, I’m happy to help! You’re going to love it out there! Enjoy! 🤙🏼

@ematherne11 Год назад

@@ManivanAdventures thanks! Great video man. Thanks for filming and sharing our adventure. I know filming these add a lot of extra footsteps to your journey. Beautifully captured. Was one side of Texas pass “easier” than the other? We were considering going counter clockwise due to time restrictions. But going down they way you went up seems like it will be tougher than climbing it. Thoughts?

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

@tonymath I would say if you go counter clockwise, going down Texas Pass might be a little sleep and slippery, but if you have trekking poles and there is no snow/ice on the trail, I don’t see it being too much of a problem. Going up seemed like it would be a bit easier going counterclockwise too, as it is definitely steeper on the other side, BUT then again, it is still quite steep and you gain almost twice the elevation from that side, so it is hard to say which way is easier. I think either way will get your heart thumpin’, but if you just take your time, it isn’t as bad as it seems. I would have to suggest clockwise based on my experience, but I don’t think you can go wrong out here. Just incredible scenery at every turn! And thank you for the kind words! It’s definitely worth adding some extra milage to capture these amazing places the way I want to!

@ManivanAdventures Год назад

@@ematherne11 After looking at the map again, it looks like you gain elevation much quicker for the loop as a whole going counterclockwise, so I think the trail will be more difficult that way in general. Hope this helps!
