I take Paracord, it's like the puncture repair kit (Motocamping) you can guarantee that if the Motorcycle gets a puncture, it's going to be when you do NOT have the repair kit, and you will never need it if you have it. so always have it! No bears here, just Beers. we do have Possums which are the biggest nuisance pest that exists in New Zealand (and protected in Australia?) the damage they do to the native trees and wildlife is why the Department of Conservation spends so much time and money trying to cull them. but tying food up in a tree actually makes it easier for them to get hold of it. so paracord is for putting up shelter from both sun and rain, making stretchers to carry injured people to a location emergency services can access. pulling a bike back up a bank, and even marking a trail so you can either find your way out, of someone else can find you!

Going this Sunday and coming here for inspiration.. hit Lincoln last month and the conditions where much more wintery even than filmed here I'm sure the conditions will be very white this time around. Nice job guys

Just pulled the trigger on the 55. 3 pounds 7 ounces lighter than my Osprey. Like 👍 this idea adding to the bottom!

What time of year did you go - August?

Well done, sir. You are a good teacher. Thank you for posting.

This is awesome! I just finished the installation and it works great. Thanks!

If I may ask a question. I have a bad sciatic nerve, about to go in for an MRI. I am a bit apprehensive about getting a laminectomy but my doc thinks this will cure it. I am 53, quit active and did karate on a regular basis until the leg hurt so bad I can barely put weight on it until it works itself loose. My question is, should my diet stay the same before surgery and since I am having a hard time working out is there anything I should do to prepare myself for surgery? My diet consist of grassfed meat, eggs, protein shakes and vegetables and fruits. I try to eat as clean as possible. I realize this is an older video but anything you could offer would be helpful. Thank you sir

Nice vid. BTW, at the Whitney summit is the Smithsonian hut. The Muir Hut is at Muir Pass on the JMT/PCT 12,000 ft 🤙

Ive rolled/sprained my ankles a few times with boots on. Without them, I probably would have broken something or at the very least it would have been much worse. If that happened miles away from the trailhead I would not like that at all. Boots for me all the way.

Nice views! Cheers to pizza and beers!

I wear those exact same Olympus Altra shoes almost daily. I pretty much only wear Altra Lone Peak shoes hiking and trail running. When I do the Uinta Highline, I will most likely be wearing my Altras as well. Great shoes! We also use the exact same watch. I love it, but I need to get one of the solar ones though for long treks like this.

few bears to worry about there in the Uintas.

Amazing scenery. Thanks for sharing

Hello! I'm going to get the same thing done on October 04th 2024 and I have a few question if you could answer please. 1. Do you remember how it felt after you came to after surgery? 2. How long were you in the hospital for before they allowed you to leave? 3. How long after surgery until you should have enough strength to go to physio? Thank you in advance!

Nice, thanks!

Beautiful scenery. Not much vegetation. Always feels good to be done aint?

Hell YES. Awesome edit as always, man. Takes me right back to this awesome week. Can't wait for the next one!

I think they need the factory loops on the other end also so you can synch it on both ends.

I have L4-5 laminectomy surgery on September 13, 2024, at Riverside Regional Hospital in Newport News Virginia andDr William McAllister will be my surgeon. My diagnosis is spinal stenosis

Did you have weakness in your legs? If so, did you get back your usual strength after surgery?

How do you prep meals?

How many hikers need rescued each year?

Great trip dude, headed there in a week.

So how u feeling? The surgeon wants to do Laminotomy (Hemilaminectomy), of the Lumbar I guess basically the same thing they did with you? I'm a collision technician. I do a lot of welding, bending picking up shit I'm scared to have a surgery. I've been out of work now for four weeks. Trying to decide if I want to have a surgery.

Thanks bro

How are you now??

Love your saying, windy day on the mountain is better than a day at work." Greetings from an Expat in Thailand 😅

I'm very inspired by this. I trek around the Mirror Lake Highway often and getting my body in shape for this one day!

Spectacular Video, you'll made it look easy.

I've tried many different versions of this great design, primarily testing various inner can height above the outer cat can. I never get a full boil with one ounce of Heet. I've tried different wind screens and such, but I only manage to get 16 oz to about 180 f, which is suitable but not a full boil. I'm using a Toaks titanium 750 ml backpacking pot with a lid. Can it be the pot? Any other advice?

Nice workmanship, the details make the difference. Having the punched holes are important to getting air flow for combustion yet keeping the wind gusts out of the burner. A natural convection air current will develop as the heat of the burner draws cool air through the holes up passed the canister into the stove fuel- air mixing throat. Additionally a smaller diameter aluminum disk with punched perforations between the stove and canister could be added as a canister shield for warm windy environments so the canister does not get dangerously hot.

Beautiful - one wish: a bit more info where exactly you are hiking, some of the landmark mountains around Lake Elizabeth, and access route you took to Ptarmigan and back on the High Line Trail. Some of us have become too challenged physically to undertake a long hike like this, but love Glacier and its gorgeous trails (and grizzly thrills) - and are happy to enjoy the trails this way. Great hike! N

Curious about your food since being on a high line. Did you do a hang, ursack, bear can or just sleep with your food.

72 years old male, very physically active 3 weeks post op from a L3-L4-L5 laminectomy and I've never felt better in as long as I can remember. Walking 3 miles a day with no leg pain whatsoever. First couple of days are a little rough getting in and out of bed but the more I walked the better I felt and by day 3 I needed no assistance at all. Off prescription medications in 7 days. Can't wait to get back to enjoying life again.

TWO AND A HALF WEEKS OUT FROM L4/L5 LAMINECTOMY AND MICRODISCECTOMY SOME RESIDUAL SYMPTOMS` BUT MILD AND MORE ANNOYING AT TIMES THAN PAINFUL I AM SURE SOME OF THOSE WILL RESOLVE OVER TIME......THE MORNING "BEING CRIPPLED" IS GONE...NO POST OP PAIN WHATSOEVER...PRAYED THAT WOULD BE THE CASE AND THAT I WOULD FEEL I WISH I HAD DONE IT SOONER......AND YES, I WISH I HAD DONE IT SOONER...MICRO SURGERY IS THE WAY TO GO ..LESS THAN 1 INCH INCISION

I noticed same thing when mine arrived and just strung a length of 1.5mm shock cord through the 4 lower tie out loops and then spooled the 2 ends through a fastener clip to cinch it tight. Now I can strap anything to the bottom, whether foam pad, or extra food carry bag for longer trips. I had all the stuff at home already so didn't need to buy anything. Very simple and useful mod. My method is a bit simpler with just one shock cord and one cinch lock. Just tied simple knot in both ends after threading through the cinch lock so they can not come out again. Very simple, very easy.

what CGs did y'all stay at? i did 8 days solo in august. none of the CGs allowed fires.

what shoes do you be rocking brother? thanks!

So no problems with isobutane at 10ish degrees. I saw in another vid that you have a liquid fuel stove. What is the deciding factor as to which one to bring in winter? THX At least in winter up there, no worries about slogging through the trail/marsh. well done!

A rare day for sure. Love that view of Wildcat!

As you'll probably realize, I'm doin' a binge on your channel today. I ice climb in NH but never really got into backpacking in winter. As usual no one to go with. This was a top notch production! Do I hear a lil Eastern MD accent? Where are you from? South Central PA here.

One night while up Death Canyon in the Tetons I had my Zpacks tent set up with my hiking pole cork handle down. I woke to a porky about 24 inches from my face chewing on the handle. The rangers had warned us about them. Said they really liked the sweaty waste bands of backpacks. We heeded the warning and hung our packs but I never thought of the cork absorbing sweat. Only make that mistake once

Bomber! Subbed

Great share thanks dude

20 miles, 6K foot day is INSANE. Great video man. But wow, that day is brutal

Which days in Sept did y'all do this trip? 😊

Great footage! What camera are you using these days?

Great recommendation. Can't find the Line Lock Side Release Buckles, no longer on Etsy.

Thanks man. This is great. And your footage is breathtaking. So glad you went out there.

man what a place. and what a video too. you guys look fun as heck. some dialogs there kind of reminded me of the show band of brothers haha glad you guys had a great time. thanks for sharing.
