From Kraig's music soundtracks to his blending of music and hiking sounds, to his still-shot compositions, to his drone footage, to his lighting, to his impeccable taste in the trails he hikes- EVERY PART of his content shows high level artistic taste. You're a true artist, Kraig.
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
Nice job Kraig, really enjoy your videos...one thing tho, your tent sucks. I think you would find a quality "mid" style shelter to be lighter and more weather proof.
Honestly, I loved the fact that you didn't put any music on this one. It's absolutly perfect like that ! Your mic does an incredible job at capturing the sounds of nature
Whether it be a test, a job, life in general, or my boyfriend being gone to boot camp, your videos bring peace of mind. They allow me to breathe and relax when nothing else can, your videos do more than you think, never stop. Thank you so much
Hands down the most beautiful hiking video I’ve ever seen- and that’s many. I’m saving this puppy for bad days as an attitude adjustment! God’s handiwork. Magnificent job young man. Your trail name should be Thunder calves
Thanks for hitting up our state! You are an inspiration for me to go out and explore more of the wonderful trail out here! Keep it up, love to see your content!
Matt Mancini I would plan where you’re trying to stay ahead of time for sure then and look at the satellite map on AllTrails. Up in the high altitude alpine zone (which is where we stayed) the trees get super small/weak.
I've been watching all of your videos for over and a year and keeping tabs on where you go because I would like to do it someday. This summer I got the chance to build my own camper, and will not set out west to hike and live the life that I have been dreaming of. Your videos have been a big inspiration and have fueled my wanderlust.
Kraig, Thank you for you vids brother. Being diagnosed with GAD this past year has been tough. But you make it much better for me. Please know that these videos have meaning and purpose to me. Be safe wherever you go. From HouTex.
From the clinking of the shale to the crunching of the snow to the swirling sound of the wind. Your presentation transports me to this beautiful place that seems like a dream. Thanks for doing this.
I don't know why but, listening to the enviroment and your steps , is way more relaxing and immersive than listening to piano music in the background. Love your videos my dude! Keep the amazing work. God Bless ya!
Kraig, awesome as usual. Two things: agree with starting hike later. We have been hiking the Sierra's for years. We now ONLY start hiking at dusk, into the night. No bugs, people, cooler. It is easy once your eyes adjust. Second: your creek crossing. TIP: Always look ahead to the shoreline. NEVER down. Try it! Seems a bit counterintuitive but it works to keep steady progress.
Washingten is soooo awesome with that flowers. Can't wait to travel someday to there to hike around Mt Rainier, Adams and Helens. And of course cant wait to see the hiking videos of you there as well .Thx for sharing.
You're really brave man!. Forged by the elements, ur a beast dude!These vids are so beautiful and raw , you're a beast hiker and an even better filmmaker/person. I know it gets cold and lonely dude out there voyaging those distances and traversing those mystical Godlike mountains....so just letting u know your vids touch us and we always are thinking about you dude!

If there was a soundtrack to these videos (which I wouldn't recommend - your signature style of beautiful landscapes that sing for themselves is gorgeous) then it might be Cat Steven's 'I love my dog'. Seriously though, these are terrific - there are no other videos I save for watching on a huge smart TV. Anything less doesn't do them justice. Love your work Kraig - I hope it brings you as much pleasure as it does your audience.
That you've used hardly any music is great, the natural sounscape gives me a better sense of 'being there'. My top favourite of your projects so far, fantastic.

Hey Kraig. Love your videos, thanks for the beautiful images. You’re showing off some of Washington’s best spots, but I was pretty disappointed seeing you camp twice on top of alpine meadow vegetation. We have a LOT of people hiking here that aren’t taking proper care to leave no trace. It’d be great to see you set a better example with your platform.
I have been isolating with covid the last few days and I have to say your videos have been a lifesaver Kraig,the cinematography and your view of the world is breathtaking,along with the music you choose,they really are a joy to watch...keep doing what you’re doing Kraig! Alan..Northern Ireland
This video was absolutely beautiful to watch, Kraig! This video and a strong cup of coffee was exactly what I needed this morning! Cheers to your next adventure man!
I've only sporadically watched videos from Kraig's channel, so not sure if it's a new/recent thing, but I love the "post-mortem" after the hike with his commentary. Really helps flesh out the details of the hike that you don't get from the hike footage (which is, as usual, blessedly free from talking over it).
Never been more glad about the fact of "ringing a bell" months ago. As always awesome work and inspiration you're spreading into the world, my boy! Thank you so much for that and I truly hope to be able to meet you one day, and maybe do some kind of "collab", when I will be worthy. Much love, Kraig! ❤
Thank you for the content. I was inspired by your Sawtooth Mountain hike to go on my own solo hike at Golden Ears. It is also calming to just watch your videos during my exam season. Keep it up!
All your videos are amazing, great work Kraig! I really enjoy the silence, just the sound of nature with your final comments. Hope one day you come to hike my wild beautiful mountains The ALPS in Friuli Venezia Giulia, near the borders of Austria and Slovenia wonderful nature and witness of the historical period of the First World War. Hello from Italy...Ciao
Wow, found your hiking videos. Love the less talk and great views and filming. Went back and saw your earlier videos where you talk a lot. Keep up what you are doing now, great improvement.
Kraig, u r my first enabled bell after many years of youtube! This method of first half silent walk is so peacefull... congratulations! And the second half is very well explained, as always! Keep up the good work. I fell you so more focused and calm compared to ur old videos, this digital nomad life seems doing good for u! Regards, Rodrigo from Brazil!
I love your work, man. Big fan of the natural sounds without music. One tip: maybe use the high pass filter on your mic to cut the bass from the wind noise. You’ve got my subwoofer rumbling.
Why there are 4 people doesn't like this video ? Although we should respect different voices, but I think It's really beautiful and peaceful ............
Beautiful! I love how you fade in the sounds from the next clip a couple of seconds before cutting to the next clip. Keeps me in the Alpha state and really adds to the dreamy feel. :)
Hi Kraig just popping in to say I'd love to also see vlogs where you're getting ready or prepping g for your hikes! Idk if its a main channel thing but I think it'd be cool! Love your stuff man
sheeesh . I just did the 12 mile hike from the red woods on James Irvine trail and back around the beach. I can't imagine doing them 40 miles. respect bro
