Yess! Amazing video as always Kraig. I'm a huge fan of yours and have been watching your videos for many months. I finally got motivated to make my own hiking video inspired by you. Would mean a lot if everyone could check it out and Subscribe to me small channel :) Thanks! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fMCJ33bh17s.html
All i can think about when watching you walk (especially far away from the camera or across a lake) away from the camera is you having to come back and grab it and then go again. So worth it for these shots!

I watch these with a plate of fruit in the morning before I go to school. Right now is a very stressful time for me, and these small moments in the morning before school with these hiking videos are what keeps me going sometimes
Hi Kraig, how r u? I’ve been watching your videos for the past year, and I really love them, I have physical limitations, I had multiple surgeries in my back and unfortunately I can’t walk for long periods of time and I can’t sleep in tents. But I can see your POV, and damn you have such a good eye, I can imagine myself hacking! I saw your last video, and i wanna let you know that you’re not alone, you have a friend here. I live In Brazil, and if one day you want to visit and hike down here, I can help you out with everything that I can. Love from Brazil Kraig, See u brother!

Love these videos. keep them coming. :) Reminds me of Psalm 19. "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world."
Dear Kraig, thank you for inspiring me to create my own hiking RU-vid channel! I've been into hiking and climbing for years and just like you am coming from cinema background and still working in video production area. But I've been aimlessly and rarely shooting videos that barely captured the soul of my trips..(with a lousy gopro that kept freezing in cold) until I come across your videos. It was a sudden bright flash appeared in my mind and I told myself "This is it!". "This is how I should combine my hobby and my work!" In an instant I fell in love with your storytelling and style. I started making similar hiking videos in Turkey. I grabbed a Sony RX100 VII and DJI Mavic Air 2 and went out to hikes. It felt like a therapy. I added things from my perspective too but I still say I'm very heavily influenced by you. You are my hero, thank you for the awareness. Last week I've been in anti-taurus mountains in Turkey and made this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FUGXkeTCnwg.html
Agree. There is a kind of balance to his videos that is hard to describe. Every cut, all the color grades, all the angles and the different music seem to be in a golden ratio to each other. I don't wanna know how long he spends editing these.
Thank you for keeping the beautiful, peaceful content coming. Everyone is paying to watch TV that makes them depressed, and I'm just sat here enjoying life and getting inspiration for my own content.
You have the eye of an artist.. watching your vdos is nothing less than art in motion , invigorating all senses , even though I can’t smell the air , the serene vibes that seep thru your videos are enough to make you feel elated ...
Kraig I always inspired after watching your videos. your content speaks for itself. every frame has intent and the edit just flows seamlessly. I look forward to the day I run into you on trail sometime here in California. sending all the good vibes for this nomad life
*smashes like before watching* edit: that place is stunningly beautiful, there's something so magical about the wilderness and sheer peaks you can access in the USA (elsewhere in the world too obvs). Great job sharing it with us.

I always feel like I'm able to go on the hike without doing all the work when I watch these, so thank you. You're giving many of us an opportunity to see parts of the world we never would
Yes! Long day-hikes are the best. You don't carry so much weight and therefore you can move way faster. It's also healthier for your back. Can't wait to see more of these! Cheers for the bavarian food and drink!
I love your videos! For some reason, they are so addicting, and fun to watch. Love how you film them as well. It's a nice creative way to not only capture the trail but also yourself perfectly. Keep doing more!
you are a truely blessed soul to enjoy solitude in preserved wild places, thank you so much for making such wonderful videos for us oldies who are backseat backpackers and hikers, for now.
Love the silence and stillness of nature, allows us to get totally immersed in the wild and serene beauty of the hiking trails. Impressive shoots, dude! 😍
Did that same path nearly 47 years ago. Made the mistake of pitching a tent in a basin. Had record rainfall. The creek that I jumped over on the way there was a raging River on the way back. Thanks for bringing that memory back to me.
LOVE that you made it here! Did the Enchantments ~6 years ago and it was breathtaking (literally and figuratively). Leavenworth is a beautiful place to visit. Welcome(en) to the PNW!
Wow just amazing. I love your videos man. They inspire me to go out more and explore nature. Thank you Kraig for giving me new perspective and joy in my life.
After a long and stressful day at work, this really helps calming down and relax. Thank you very much Mr. Adams for uploading your hiking experiences in such a pristine quality for free to watch. :)
I love watching your videos because like you mentioned in the video, they are so crisp to look at. Thanks for sharing some BTS footage and the camera gear.
Really appreciate the way you layout your edit with the calming, serene hiking content coming first, followed up with insightful info on the journey and gear. Lovely content, keep up the amazing work!
Hi Kraig - Of course the hiking videos are excellent. I wish to comment that the last half of the before and after hike is great :). The places you stayed, transportation, gear used - both hiking and video gear/editing, your insights, the "not in the movie" video clips (excellent enhancement to the actual experience) - all the second half of the last 2 videos..... makes the entire video so much better :) I have listened to most of your podcasts as well - that you share your candid thoughts is enlightening as we all have those rarely expressed thoughts wonder thru our minds, usually unexamined. That you express these thoughts, ideas, circumstances etc has helped to listen and think about my own similar thoughts rather than just rushing on with "life". Thanks.
I thank you so much for making me out of depression by giving these beautiful videos. I have huge respect for you as you do back and forth for taking the camera big fan sir. Lots of love from India. Hope you come one day here and we both will hike together the Himalayas ❤️🙏🎉
Kraig love the way you shoot these videos. I'm sure it's time consuming setting up the camera and walking back to it all the time, but it gives your videos a really unique feel, so don't change! Thanks
Didn't get to see all of it, or better yet, couldn't stand watching anymore. Watch these (kind of) videos at first to reminisce, catch memories of all the places I hiked and trekked and traveled now that cannot and am On-In-Years. Secondly it's all about Belief, or the power thereof and getting to see and think of all that's good and right in this life if you get the chance, are so lucky. In that I am a million miles away from that world/life, mostly cuz don't got legs like yours - had to say somethin' bout it. Thanks for taking me along - as far as I could go.
Been following all your hiking vids and this is the first time I noticed how well you edit and transition the audio tracks, very well done. Please keep up the good work.
I would give anything to have a really big picture of the lake and trees on each side at 0:54. That was absolutely fabulous!!! I hiked the Enchantments about 50 years ago, and what I remember most is that we had to buskwhack it straight up the mountain for about a half hour.
I am a (non-ultra) trail runner. Trail running videos brought me to hiking videos and thus ultimately to your channel. After all, these two activities have a lot in common. So if you considering to venture into trail running, I will be very happy to enjoy this new facet of your channel. Plus on a running vest. I use one myself for longer runs. Much better suited for running and day hikes then a back pack.
We love your videos. They’re always so relaxing and they really show the whole experience. We always feel like we’re right there with you. We’ll be in this area in about 2 weeks and are super interested in this hike. Thanks for sharing. As always this video was amazing. 🤗
Very enjoyable video Kraig... I thoroughly enjoyed it. 20 miles and 5,000ft is a big dayhike! Great effort doing it and capturing it. I really enjoy the recent outros you've added, showing you walking back to get the camera. And the time you now dedicate to showing the places you stay pre/post hike. Excellent. All the best, Richard
I ran the route in October 2018 with a fresh layer of snow and golden larches. It made it more difficult and a little chilly but was one of my favorite day hikes/runs ever. Leavenworth also happened to be celebrating oktoberfest. Very strange sight for a European, but it's so peaceful out there in Washington, we just can't even compare. Your video was an incredibly beautiful representation of that, brought me back to my own trip even though that looked a lot different!
I have the attention span of a Golden Retriever puppy, but no matter how long these videos are you always manage to keep my attention, and of course, amaze me.
What a beautifully made video of an incredible place. Your videos of the outdoor world are a full cut above any others on the internet, including some landscape photographers I follow.
Kraig, Again, your videos are getting better and better! And I loved it! Each video uploaded I start thinking about the next one you will share. So good!
