Hahaha same here

We are glad you are enjoying them!

Agreed! So beautiful!

Hahah that's too funny! We bet the Four Pass Loop was so beautiful. That's something Warren definitely wants to do in the future

Nice, yeah Castle is a very fun peak. We are jealous, the Aspen area is a very cool place to live

@@TheStone406 yeah im looking to hit north bells next summer and la plata and elbert

Awesome!

Thanks, we appreciate the kind words! I have heard of that route going, though well above 4th. Chris Kussmaul did it just a couple weeks ago. I personally don't have any super reliable information about how choosy it actually is, but we've heard low/low-mid 5th with super loose rocks. But hard to say without actually having been up there Here is a link to my strava activity: strava.app.link/HAgMBwvElNb

Dang right! 🫶

Hahaha thank you! Julie is quite the bad-ass 🤘

Thanks! We appreciate the kind words. This video was filmed July 17th

Yeah, try using this link to view it in Strava. strava.app.link/TRhbjXaXxMb - Basically you start at the Upper South Fork Bracket Creek Trailhead, head up to the Ross Pass saddle, and then head towards Ross. The trail leads you into the gully and the scrambling is all around that gully

🙏

Stoked to get back after it again with you next year bro!

Sick! Thanks for the recommendation. We'll have to check it out

We appreciate that feedback! Unfortunately the trip has already come and gone and all those clips were filmed on an iPhone in 9:16 ratio. But, next time we'll be sure to bring the GoPros!

@@TheStone406 it’s alright, thanks for showing it anyways :D

Everyone has their own strategy with class 3 routes. Warren and Will were 100% studied up on the route before getting there. But this route is very straight forward, so going in without having the whole thing memorized is very reasonable if you're comfortable making route-finding decisions and following occasional cairns

@@TheStone406 got it, ty

Most of the clips in this video come from the ridge line that runs north to south that creates the west end of Fraizer Basin near Bozeman. The peaks that create this ridge line are officially unnamed

Agreed hahaha

@@TheStone406 I thought he was gonna say "but" as in "it's not really as deisel as it looks" but nope! lol

Same here hahaha

Yeah! Such a beautiful area

The "crux" of this loop is coming down from North Massive to the saddle before Massive Green. It involved a very little bit of class 3- scrambling. I don't recall it being exposed or very difficult at all, but I did use my hands some. The larger difference between this loop and the standard trail is in the route-finding. At no point was it very difficult, but there definitely wasn't a trail or cairns for any of the hike between North Half Moon Lakes and Massive Green. But if you're comfortable with that, give it a go because it was a ton of fun!

@@TheStone406 gotcha. this sounds like a ton of fun. sorry, one last question... not sure if you've done mt Missouri.. but if you have, would you say the crux you describe above for north massive is easier than the crux on Missouri?

No problem at all, we love the questions! It's been a while since I've done Mount Missouri, but from what I recall, coming down from North Massive is a little trickier than the crux on Mount Missouri. I don't recall the decent from North Massive being cairned, so it was a little bit of a "choose your own adventure". There are certainly ways to come down from North Massive that are only Class 2, but I think the way I came down was more in the Class 3 range. I wouldn't say it is a large step up, but certainly a little more than Missouri

Thanks, glad you enjoyed

Stoked to hear it, you'll enjoy it here for sure!

Thanks, yeah, some days were really good!

We would have to agree with you there for sure, but frankly it's more a matter of principle and respect than the probability of being caught. CFI is actively trying to work with the owners of Bross, Linsdey, and the like to try and allow us to be able to hike there. But if we want any chance of the peaks being reopened to the public, we should respect the closure and the land owners wishes.

Hahaha thank you, yeah those lines are dope. Kirkwood is such a cool place

Hahaha

Thanks, we definitely had fun

Thank you for the kind words, we appreciate it 🙏

Thank you we appreciate the kind words and the question! In our opinion, the perfect board for you might differ from what the perfect board for someone else is. It's all about what you feel comfortable on and what allows you to charge! In general, Warren and Michael both opt for quite stiff boards, with a wide waist width and a considerable amount of taper and early rise. Warren rides the Ride Commissioner and Michael rides the Rossignol XV. Both of those are potentially a little aggressive for some of the "hop turney" / billy goat style lines of Bridger, but if you like a very stiff, aggressive board, these are great options. In particular, the Ride boards have genuinely incredible durability. If you're looking for something a little more moderately aggressive, the K2 Alchemist is quite fun, or the Ride Berzerker is pretty rad too. Neither Warren nor Michael have tried it, but we have some friends that really like the Yes 420 that is based off their old Ghost model. Hope this helps and feel free to reach back out if you have follow up questions!

Glad you had a good time! Yeah that place is rad. I believe Warren and Michael filmed this video the 7th-9th of February

Go Avs

Brighton is super fun, but very different. The laps are much shorter, but quality terrain nonetheless. We'd definitely say give it a shot

Thank you!

We had a ton of fun for sure

Thank you! And thanks for the feedback, I'll pass that along to our editing team

Thank you! Yes, Bridger is an amazing place 🙌

Warren and Finn had a ton of fun!

We appreciate the feedback, thank you! We will pass this along to our editing team
