This was the best video I have seen. It is hard to compare but this was full of Dogs, sweeping vistas, really good Dogs, beautiful meadows, and hiking with the Dogs! You really filmed this well and it was so enjoyable to watch! Thank you for taking the time to film.all.of this beauty. It is so worth it to see it later.

@mountainwanderer Месяц назад

This was a really fun trip and a fantastic route! We had our top crew of dogs out there with us, it was a great adventure!

Just WOW!, ,,,, Amazingly Beautiful 🥰 ,,,,,, Full of gorgeous scenery. The cinematography was excellent...... left me in an Omgosh euphoria 💕 My constant dialect was,,, "It's So Beautiful" 😍 "Definitely off the hook! 😉" ....... A moose! A moose! A moose is on the loose 😆

It was truly beautiful! As good as it might look on the screen, its way better in person!

Next year is my year for the Winds. With no woman to follow the world is all mine...I love none so well as I love the moonshine. That last day with you drinking coffee and the scenery was a friggin Folgers coffee commercial...damn. That last fish was a monster....nothing beats a fresh cooked campfire fish...cooked in ALUMINUM. Beautiful video of the Winds.

@user-xz8bi1yj6b Месяц назад

I agree with @ursinidaho - beautiful scenery and light. More dogs than usual! I'd like to know more about them. that cute mostly black shepherd who always seems to have a stick in it's mouth, ready to play. And Timber with his funny tipped ears and un-sheperd-like face. I can always tell it's him, even from a long distance, by the way he holds his tail, waving back and forth like a flag! Best wishes to all the dogs and...oh yeah...to the hikers, too! Thank you for sharing another wonderful hiking trip.

@mountainwanderer Месяц назад

That black shepherd is obsessed with sticks! I'm not even sure that that even describes how much that dog loves sticks. He goes from sun up to sun down and would chase sticks all day!

Awesome! I love the Winds! 9 days in the Winds is awesome! Nice fish on Day 8! I need to make it back up there! I was gonna try this year but the Uinta Highline Trail took up my extended trip this year. You guys had some great camps! Another awesome video! Thanks for bringing us along! CP 👍👍

@mountainwanderer Год назад

That is funny, because while we were there, we were talking about the Highline Trail (great series of yours btw!). We're hoping to do that soon before it gets too tough for me to do. (they might've been calling me old)

@ChristianPaulPhotography Год назад

Thank you so much! It was a adventure of a lifetime! You should totally do the Uinta Highline Trail! I’m 49 and did it this year! If you need a gpx file or my food prep list please let me know. You guys would kill it out there! I did not even know that the Winds had a Porcupine Pass as well. I’m hoping to do it again in 2024. I have a different starting point in mind. You guys are seriously one of my favorite channels on RU-vid! If you are headed to the Uintas hit me up!

@@mountainwanderer A few years ago I was boondocking in Brdger-Teton, thinking about heading over to Pinedale and going backpacking in that area when a couple rangers stopped by and encouraged me to check out some trails right where I was. Ended up doing a four nighter with spectacular views and tons of solitude. It was around McDougal pass in an area approximately between Big Piney and Alpine, WY. , if'n u want to check on a map. Definitely on my "to do" list to get back there.

@BryanDeLay Год назад

Great video of a great loop Travis. I've done this exact loop once and a similar loop another time, although both times I went clockwise. Never been brave enough to go up Porcupine Pass counter clockwise. I've camped at your first campsite twice and it's really nice. Also I've camped at the site you passed up at 37:22. Great view looking down on New Fork Park at 19:01, which is really nice too. I was in the Winds about this time in August. Did two trips, but only videoed the first trip: Jackass Pass - Texas Pass Loop. Really enjoyed this video!

@mountainwanderer Год назад

I'll be honest Bryan, I was thinking of you when we were there! I felt like we might cross paths on trail! Seems like everyone must do this loop clockwise... but we're against the grain kind of folks. Initially we were going to a long loop and go down towards New Fork Park more, but that just leaves more unexplored country for next time!

I don't remember the road being too bad getting to the trailhead. What I do remember is that it is a very long drive on a dirt road to get there though.

@BackpackerDiaries Год назад

Nicely done, we considered this same area this past August (15th). With limited time we instead decided to start from New Fork Lakes TH over Double Top Mountain to Palmer Lake then completing the loop as a 2 day/1 night loop via Palmer Canyon. I wonder if we were in the Wind River Range at the same time? You've got a new sub in Utah! Thanks for sharing :)

@mountainwanderer Год назад

That is funny, we were absolutely there on Aug 15th. That would been day 3 for us. Our original route had us going up Palmer Canyon, but we changed it for a shorter route. Had we not changed it, there was a good chance we would've ran into each other!

@wade2361 Год назад

Great video! I am confused around that @7:35 mark. I've never had a shepherd (looks like 4 of them)...do they really just walk down the trail like that? I have pointers and that would be a miracle. A very nice miracle.

@mountainwanderer Год назад

Ha! A couple of the shepards were pretty new to backpacking and the other two had many years experience. But the new ones, just picked it up from the experienced ones. On trail it's about hiking, but once we stop they'll roam around a bit.

@DrJohn493 Год назад

Thanks for a bit of great familiar scenery! And thanks for treating me to some views I missed seeing last year on my failed attempt to do the same loop. Looks like you and BD were in the Winds about the same time in August. Curious why y'all did the loop counterclockwise rather than clockwise from the trailhead?

@mountainwanderer Год назад

I didn't put this route together, so I'm not sure why they decided to go in that way. Actually the route we ended up doing wasn't what was planned out before we started. We changed it after the first day beat us up.
