He makes it looks easy but it’s not. What is easy is hitting the like button folks! Show these guys an ounce of appreciation please! And know, I don’t personally know anyone in this video what I do know is it takes a lot of hard work and effort on a lot of these trails. Thank you guys

@lifeofluke 3 года назад

Thanks, I'm grateful that you notice and appreciate the effort I put in!

Great hot springs! Went there about 2 weeks before this video and the smaller ones by the river were flooded by the river. Check out the upper halfway hotsprings. I've heard they're a gem

@lifeofluke 6 лет назад

Ya, I've heard about those and would love to check them out sometime!

@adkkev 6 лет назад

pretty sweet ... but I can't believe you climbed up without any traction devices for your boots (microspikes at least!). Thanks for sharing another special place.

@lifeofluke 6 лет назад

Thanks for watching Kevin! Haha, it was ok! The snow was soft so we could kick our steps in without too much trouble

@allardzack 3 года назад

Be careful while crossing for the top of a glacier to the rock! Had a friend a few years ago slip and get wedged upside down between the snow and rock, couldn’t expand his lungs and died. Always try and think of all the what if’s! Great vid though

@lifeofluke 3 года назад

Thanks Zack, that's a horrible way to go, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm pretty aware of what can happen and have taken relevant courses

@superrandomcrapify 6 лет назад

awesome vid luke. they just keep getting better and better. i hope eventually you can start getting enough view where it becomes profitable enough for you to adventure full time. keep it up.

@lifeofluke 6 лет назад

Thanks Justin! That would be amazing if it happened, to create video full time would be a dream! And be able to travel farther, with better equipment, working with other creative people to tell inspiring stories!

@pgerry9400 3 года назад

Great video, I have lived in Nakusp and been up to the lookout. My dream is to hike up and fly my paraglider off there. Another lookout worth the visit is in New Denver which I have flown off.

@MrTurbreal 6 лет назад

Hey Luke your videos are awesome.. Thank u for sharing this beautiful gem with the world. Just want to ask you something. Is August a good time to visit Saddle mountain Lookout and are there any possibilities of avalanches as i can see Snow in your video. Thanks.

@lifeofluke 6 лет назад

August is the perfect time! All the trail should be snow free by then, and there would be no chance of avalanches. Thank you!

@HighlanderNorth1 3 года назад

🤔 For those unaware, the sign at the beginning read, "Ministry" of Forests, because theres an environmental religious sect that oversees this forest, who's "minister" is an apostle of tree worship. They don't have written religious tomes, because books are written on paper(ie. tree flesh), so that would be sacrilegious and blasphemous. They did have a plan to record their sacrament onto papyrus, but alas, papyrus would NOT grow on snowy mountain peaks! 😁 Seriously though, cool video and hike.

@yako0000 3 года назад

damn i had the chance to go to those hot springs in 2019, but we didn't go because it was so hot in july and nobody wanted to get even hotter.

@rickrayn 4 года назад

Great views, is there a place to find existing fire lookouts in B.C.?

@lifeofluke 4 года назад

As in a website of existing fire lookouts? There are some sites, I generally do a lot of online research to find them, some have very little info while others are well documented.

Is august cold enough to enjoy the hot springs?

@lifeofluke 4 года назад

I would say August is too warm, but that's my personal opinion

@cathywright6665 6 лет назад

Luke, why does there look to be so much damage to the signage and trees near the beginning of the trail? Will that be repaired by the ministry sometime soon?

@lifeofluke 6 лет назад

There was a ton of broken and fallen down trees, I assume it was from the heavy snow load this winter and/or possible avalanches. They will likely repair it this summer, as well as clear the trail which is completely blocked in some spots.

@cathywright6665 6 лет назад

lifeofluke Thank you.

@SG-ds7jm 4 года назад

Did you take a ferry to get to the hotspringz?

@lifeofluke 4 года назад

Actually you take a ferry to get to the fire lookout, the hot spring is on the same side as the highway

@joshuacox8104 5 лет назад

Hi, someone just mentioned to me that this trail is now closed as it's become public land so you can't hike it anymore. Any knowledge of this?

@lifeofluke 5 лет назад

Hi Josh, I have no knowledge of that, but it doesn't sound right. If it's public land then there's no reason why you can't hike it.

@joshuacox8104 5 лет назад

@@lifeofluke Thanks Luke, I'm hoping there was some confusion there. I'm really looking forward to hiking this mountain this summer. Your video was awesome. What date did you do this hike? I'm shooting for end of June, should there still be snow at the top at that time? Thanks for the advice. Cheers

@lifeofluke 5 лет назад

@@joshuacox8104 Thanks! I went in early June. There will likely still be snow around the top in late June.
