Dinked around Wind River Southern portion for the first time ever. So reminiscent of the mighty Sierras, just an awesome landscape.

@greta4615 Год назад

So many amazing places-the Winds absolutely being one of them.

My favorite hiking destination, anywhere... Wind River Range! Can't get enough of these mountains

@lonewolfe5129 Год назад

@@SeekingLost You got that right(and you haven't even tried the fishing)! A good reference for off trail routes is Nancy Pallister's Beyond Trails in The Wind River Mountains.

@Cjwyo Год назад

HECK YEAH!! love your channel and the Wind River range!

@SeekingLost Год назад

Thanks,Tom!

""thought you liked trees." - I think that stretch of upper ross and mile long lake is where I changed my thoughts on them. lol

@SeekingLost Год назад

Oh, they were not bad here, compared to the route between Faler Lake and Clear Lake, then downstream from Clear Lake a few miles. You'll see. That shit was nuts!

@travel2walk Год назад

@@SeekingLost Good to know. I had a friend go through there and did call it his worst day of the trip. He did say it was better than he though going in, but he found a good amount of game trails and visibility wasn't bad since the growth was young when he went through there. That guy always kills me on our trips though, so it will be interesting to see from your videos. lol

@Twobarpsi Год назад

The scenery is incredible! You both are very experienced and talented hikers. The average person just can't do this! You also have to have fearless confidence in your abilities, backed up by respect and restraint for the environment.

Great Video. Cheers!

@SeekingLost Год назад

Thank you!

We did the same hike a few years ago from Ross to Upper Ross before heading to Bomber and Golden Lakes. The route around Upper Ross to the inlet is brutal. Its been fun to relive it watching the two of you! I think we took the exact same path. Great video as usual!

@SeekingLost Год назад

That's cool you did the same route, and can relate. Some fun route finding around Ross Lakes, and some outstanding scenery!

@carlagreif3070 Год назад

Kick ass fun!!! You both flow over the terrain like water. Excellent videography! Thanks for all the hard work and your spirit of adventure. I can’t wait to get back on the trail ❤️

@SeekingLost Год назад

Thanks so much! I hope you do get back on trail soon

Ive watched alot of hiking videos and gotta say this and your ODT hike are my favorites. To me this is so remote that not many if any will be out there. I dont mind people per say but on trails like the AT or PCT there is numerous places the average person can just walk out and many places are just trashed from them.

@SeekingLost Год назад

Thanks, I really appreciate that! The ODT wasn't necessarily my favorite long hike, but it was my favorite video series to date. Outside of a few places in the Winds, solitude is usually pretty easy to find. It's easily my favorite hiking destination, anywhere

@Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism Год назад

I'm loving this hike. It's a great one, guys.

@SeekingLost Год назад

Thanks! Any hike in the winds, ends up being one of the best of one's life. It's that kind of place!

@canesrock82 Год назад

Katie is such a good sport. Did you do any fishing? As you know, those waterfalls feeding the lake are easy fishing.

@SeekingLost Год назад

Nope, no fishing gear on this trip. I need to do a dedicated fishing trip in the wind, someday!

@gamedoutgamer Год назад

Fantastic hike and area. Well done!! Inspiring! Parts of this looked dangerous especially climbing up that dead tree/log when she was hanging onto that tree. Glad you both made it out okay. Looks like this range didn't get crazy high amounts of snow or was this a previous year? When was this filmed exactly? Maybe 2021 because you said 2018 was three years ago? Was this July? Cheers!

@SeekingLost Год назад

This was 2021. I'm a little backed up on content :) I think 2021 was an average to low snow year. These routes in the winds, They are often challenging but always seems like there's a way through, sometimes near the limits of what we want to do

@sharonthomas4856 Год назад

hey Eric any plans for the hay duke?

@SeekingLost Год назад

It's high on my list!

@christopherch7307 Год назад

@thuggoe Год назад

what do you bring for toenail care on a long hike?

@SeekingLost Год назад

I have a Gerber dime multi tool, I just used the little scissors on it to trim my nails

@juststeph6701 Год назад

Curious...how many miles do you add on to get those great shots of you walking by?

@SeekingLost Год назад

Hard to say. But it is nice hiking with someone, I do less shots where I walk by the camera, because I can simply film my hiking partner!

@juststeph6701 Год назад

@SeekingLost I started to follow you on the CDT hike. Amazing photography as always. Great that you have someone to hike with. I worry about you when you are alone alone

@SeekingLost Год назад

@@juststeph6701 I would generally prefer to have a partner, but I would rather hike alone, than not hike at all! I do appreciate your concern :)

@sharonthomas4856 Год назад

mosquitos?

@SeekingLost Год назад

I don't remember them being too bad here, I think they were worse by Green River Lakes if I recall
