@@Jorlanshinkle thanks! Yea it’s crazy how much it fluctuates in short periods of time. That’s crazy! Haha yea it was winter then also. We were riding the tail end of some rain/snow, so we were able to keep up with good levels. But yea I still think back to that day at Clabber haha. Great memories!

@@caseymiddleton5534 lol! Yea that fur was really gorgeous. I couldn’t stop admiring it. Can’t say that thought didn’t cross my mind also haha 😂

That’s the fattest fox I’ve ever seen! Beautiful.

@@Beyond_The_Treeline One nearly got that treatment August of 2023, just finished sighting my bow in and put it away when I turn around to see this fox trotting through the parking lot

@@notquiteultralight1701 yea he was definitely the healthiest fox I’ve ever seen! He seems to eat pretty good out there.

@@caseymiddleton5534 oh wow! He got lucky that day haha 😂

@@alexbrandon2193 thanks! Glad you liked it! Totally, Lake Superior is one of my favorite places too. It took me awhile to finally do this trip, but we’ve been thinking about it for years. That’s exciting you’re thinking about paddling it too! If I can ever help with anything let me know. I’ve spent a decent amount of time around Superior, but paddling it was a special experience for sure. Lost Lakes was a big inspiration for me too. I love Jon’s channel. Do you do a lot of hiking on the Superior Hiking Trail? I’ve been wanting to hike that (or at least part of it) for years. Any tips or favorite parts to hike up there?

@@Beyond_The_Treeline I’ve done small parts of Superior hiking trail over the years. Mostly to get to different peaks and overlooks. Hard to say what’s the best part. Really an endless number of overlooks and spur trails that go up to different peaks. Carlton peak and Waterfalls at Temperance river state park and High falls at Tettegouche state park are must sees. This past trip I was mostly in Tettegouche State park along the coast and inland to see high falls. Only one part of SHT goes directly along the lake, although you get great views of it from SHT, so I definitely recommend people do some stops along the coast like mount Josephine near the Canadian border or the cliffs at Palisade head and shovel point in Tettegouche. These are not on the Sht but a short to moderate hike from the car.

@@alexbrandon2193 nice! Thanks for the recommendations. I definitely need to get up to Mount Josephine, I’ve been meaning to do that for awhile. I need to just do another slow drive up the north shore and hit a bunch of those in one go. That would be kinda fun and a great little road trip!

@@fargoaerials3456 hey that’s awesome! Glad you’re enjoying the channel. Yea Superior is really cold haha. So it was probably in the 40s that time of year. Definitely was on our mind all the time. That’s why we brought the spray deck and took a lot of precaution when it came to when we would paddle. That first day with the waves was a big concern of ours, so that’s why we played it really safe the rest of the time. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@Beyond_The_Treeline brrr! Yeah, kind of a bummer if you go in. When we rented a kayak in Apostles, they made us go upside down and then recover. That was the final exam.

@@fargoaerials3456 definitely would be! Depending on the situation, could be a quick end to a trip… That’s pretty cool about the Apostles. Ive never learned how to recover in a kayak. That would be cool! I’ve always wanted to go check out the Apostle Islands. Did you get to paddle between all the islands?

@@Beyond_The_Treeline we ended the trip a day early due to weather, but in theory, yeah, you paddle between some of the islands depending on how much time one has. Would make a great adventure and film 😀

@@fargoaerials3456 that’s awesome! I bet it would. I’ll have to look into it because I plan to spend more time padding around Superior for sure :)

@@joelkennethwetmore1574 that’s amazing! I’m sure you have some incredible memories from there. It’s an amazing place to spent that much time.

@@ChipChannel17 thanks! Great question. The rangers at Churchill dam offer to shuttle your gear to the base of the rapids for like $10. So we took them up on the offer to just focus on running rapids.

@@charlesmunson3232 that’s amazing! Yea it’s a crazy hike up there haha. Definitely worth the effort though. Yea that last bit to North Truchas is one of the most intense hikes I’ve done in the area. Wasn’t expecting it.

You guys do some fantastic vids, btw.

@@charlesmunson3232 thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoy the channel!

@@notquiteultralight1701Gila Wilderness sometime. Any recommendations for that area?

I worked in the glen wood ranger district and we had all the high peaks in our district so it was nice. I think you guys will like it. Just please please manage your poop. I dig pretty deep with a good size branch and then use the resulting mound as a pee backdrop. When I was working there… there was some folks that thought that if you just poop on the surface and leave your TP there with it, it will degrade faster with the UV rays. Not so. Anyway. Please be careful with those ridge tops in that part of the country because of lightning. The universe is much too special with the “beyond the treeline” channel!😊

@@notquiteultralight1701 nice! Ok I’ll have to check it out for sure. Oh for sure on the poop front lol. That’s my least favorite thing to come across on trail. It’s really not that hard to leave no trace when it comes to that. I just don’t understand why so many people don’t dig a cat hole and cover everything. Good advice, thanks for the heads up! Lightening is something I try to be really mindful of, especially in the mountains. That’s definitely not something I want to mess with. Thanks so much! That’s super kind. Interactions like this are my favorite part of the channel. And you’ve been commenting basically since the beginning! So thanks for watching along the journey!

@@victorialree I’m filming with a LUMIX FZ300 and a GoPro.

@@victorialree thank you! That’s one of the things I love most about being in nature is hearing the sounds. So I’m glad some of that come through with the video :)

@@KwertyWASD amazing! It’s beautiful up there, enjoy!

@@Beyond_The_Treeline just got back from the trip, had to call search and rescue, was beautiful though!

@@KwertyWASD oh no! What happened? I hope everyone is ok!

@@ervinslens thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

@@Myn6211 me too! The timing was close for sure. Can’t say I’d do that route again haha, but since we made it safely I’m glad we did it once :) It really is beautiful out there! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!

@@stevenrush9862 they sure are!

@@Robynloveshred thanks! Glad you liked it. Northern New Mexico is an amazing place!

@@tomfarnsworth950 thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the journey with us. The southwest is an incredible region fully of dramatic beauty. Sounds like you’ve had some pretty amazing adventures in the area as well! I bet your view down on the confluence was stunning! That’s one thing that’s harder to get when you’re canoeing is the view of the canyon system. It’s pretty amazing when you can get a glimpse of the landscape like that.

@@dustman96 I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! It is such a beautiful place. After doing Labyrinth I really would love to do Stillwater canyon as well. The perspective is so different from inside those canyons. I love it!

@@annewhelan2437 thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying the channel! Filming is always a bit of work, but I do really enjoy it. Filming helps me slow down and appreciate the landscape in a different way. My name is Nathan and my friend who joins me on a lot of these trips is Chase. Honestly, the bugs weren’t too bad the time of year we went. We were there late September into early October. Thank you for the comments!

@@jackm1k amazing! What time of year were you there? We did end of September into first week of October of 2022. It really is an incredible route!

@@Beyond_The_Treeline i was there around june-july time

@@annewhelan2437 thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. I’m a big fan of Jon’s channel as well and have been watching Lost Lakes for years. Lots of inspiration from him as well :) You’re right, that area is absolutely breathtaking! I hope to spend a lot more time up there in the future. I’m glad we could bring you along on the adventure! Thanks for watching and for the nice comment! I’ll keep the videos coming for sure :) Many more trips on the horizon!

@@SeanDemers haha thanks! We thought so. It really helped us track distance on a day to day. I’d use the tea bag system again for sure!

@@HenryX-y1u amazing! Yea that area is beautiful with all the wild rice fields. Thanks for watching! I hope you had a great trip! What was your route from the Nina-Moose River?

@@Beyond_The_Treeline I think so yes.

@@cconnon1912 thank you! Yea it’s really an amazing place! Definitely underrated. I’ll check out Hermits Peak for sure. I’ll definitely be going back. Just got back from Trampas Lakes actually! So always glad to get recommendations for new areas to check out. Thanks for watching!

@@NothernNate it really was incredible! Yea this was my first longer paddle trip in the west and it blew me away! It’s stunning!

@@mSchwippy so glad the video brought you back out there! That area really is such a special place, especially in winter. Thanks for the comment!

@@mathewgraves1741 it is an absolutely amazing place! You’ll for sure have to do it when you get a chance. Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the comment!

@@cleddy-qx9vx I’m from the Midwest too, and this trip was like nothing I’ve ever experienced before! It really was amazing. Would highly recommend it. From what I was reading, fall is the best time to get the sandbar camping in those canyons. The water level is too high in spring and summer and they are usually all covered up. Thanks for watching!

@@427vot thanks!

@@NothernNate that’s how I felt till I saw this one lol. You find one!

@@The_Mister thanks for watching it! Glad you enjoyed the video!

@@NothernNate thanks man! I love it too haha. Glad you enjoy the channel!

@@us11857 haha that’s amazing! It looked smooth sailing at the beginning haha. Definitely made for some fun memories. Glad you got to relive it a bit through our video!

@@creskeybell amazing! Yea the Pecos is a special place. I’ve been coming back to the area for a few years now and it’s a place I’ve really grown to love. Heading back next week actually! So should have another video coming soon. We saw a lot of big horn sheep but I just didn’t have a camera with me that could capture them well. So this time I do and I’m hoping to run into more! Thanks for the comment!

@@scotttuckey96 go for it! Happy to help answer any questions I can. If email is easier I’ve got an email you can reach me at in the contact section of my page. Otherwise happy to chat here too.

@Beyond_The_Treeline couldn't find the email. I will be doing this trip next month and just curious about how long it to you to get to trip bend alcove from your start point or even crystal geyser where I'll be putting in. And just some general must haves for the trip that you brought or wish you had. What kind of miles did you average an hour. And tips would be greatly appreciated

@@scotttuckey96 oh whoops, I thought I put it up but guess I didn’t. Here it is: beyondthetreeline23@gmail.com Shoot me a quick email and I have a lot of info I can get you! It’ll be easier to share it there. It’s a fun trip and definitely worth doing. Looking forward to connecting about it!

@@Jeremy_one thanks!

@@johnbecay6887 I have a platypus gravity filter that I use for filtering. It works great! So that’s typically what I’m using.

@@Beyond_The_Treeline thank you.

@@jefflanham1080 thank you! Glad you enjoy the channel. Thanks for the kind words!

@@Myn6211 beautifully said yourself! I think one could spend a lifetime exploring her and never get tired of her beauty and mystery. Definitely a place that’s captivated me for years and one I’ll keep returning to. Thanks for watching and for the comment!

@@chancecreek6375 thanks! I dehydrate a lot of my food for trips, so we had stews, pasta, chili, etc. for breakfast I usually do some sort of oatmeal, bannock, or breakfast burritos from those dehydrated breakfast skillets. Lunches were mostly wraps with hummus, cheese, cured meat, carrots, and bell peppers. I feel like with meals I’m slowly adding more creativity. It’s fun :)

@@ecclesiamilitante6880 I’m sure it would be! I went back and forth on if I’d try to fish or not, but ultimately with not knowing the coastline and what challenges it would have, along with trying to film everything, I decided to save the fishing for another time. Would love to spend more time up there and do some fishing though. Thank you!

@@robgerety thanks! Yea we felt like we would have miss out on so much by skipping out on Johnson Pond and the creek/river sections. It’s absolutely beautiful through there!

@@carriann3725 thank you! So glad you enjoyed it. Superior is gorgeous! Glad you could follow along the journey with us. From Ohio you’re not too far from Superior, if you ever get a chance to get up there I’d highly recommend it :) On our way back we spent a bit of time in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and explored Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Definitely worth the visit!

@@barryraven4745 thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Wow that’s crazy. Incredible how the landscape changes with all that. I would have never realized there had been an avalanche. But I bet it would have been super unstable after that. The ridge was cool. Really pretty views. But seeing the trail coming up from the south from the top made me want to do that too! That whole area is just so petty everywhere you look. Sweet! I’m so glad you recommended the Latir Peak Wilderness! I was literally looking over maps about 2 weeks ago looking for more spots to explore in northern New Mexico and Latir Peak immoderately caught my attention. Looks like an incredible spot. So now with the recommendation I’ll definitely be going! Here in a couple weeks I’m taking some friends up to Trampas Lakes, but already thinking about early next year I might try to do Latir then. Thanks!

@@Beyond_The_Treeline One other amazing place in New Mexico is Valle Vidal. You can camp there and hike up Little Costilla. Not really backpacking but a wonderful beautiful place to camp and hike. Not sure if you could get permission but Big Costilla is huge mountain in that same area. Private property unfortunately. One other note, a passenger car would not be a good idea on the two mile road to Cabresto Lake.

@@barryraven4745 good to know! Thanks for the recommendations and advice. I’ve been coming back to NM for the past several years and it’s hooked me. I love how diverse and beautiful the state is. Looking forward to exploring it more!

@@vdpeer there weren’t any the time of year we went. We were there in late September and early October, so thankfully no black flies!

@@shaan702 I actually do have one! They are super cool. It’s just you are only allowed to fly them in certain areas and designated Wilderness Areas are off limits. Most of this trip took place in a Wilderness Area so I just wasn’t able to fly it. It would be cool to get some shots on those peaks though!

@@rosaliebarry7586 glad you enjoyed it!

@@rosaliebarry7586 that’s awesome! That area is so pretty. I’ve never heard of that movie before, I might have to look it up. Thanks for watching!
