This was an excellent video, thank you for sharing your hike. I’m taking my nephew on this hike with me in July (five months to train). He will be seventeen and he is very excited! If it’s not to much to ask, I’d like to know what map you were using (online info is conflicting). Thanks again for this video 👍
Thanks for watching! I use the national geographic cloud peak wilderness map 720.
@@chadmurphy7939 Thank you so much! We are very excited to take this hike 👍
Thank you so much. It's been a while since you posted this video but I enjoyed it tremendously. I felt the reverence of the wreck and the amazing majestic views. Thank you. I don't think I would ever make it up that high, so, I appreciate viewing.
Awesome video!! You took an incredible journey!! Thank you for sharing. Best of luck on your future trips!!
Thanks for watching! Hope to go back someday.
impressive! but...how TF does he get angle shots ahead, beside, behind of him (he's solo, right?) ??
I ended up doing extra hiking to get many of these shots. On the flatter sections it wasn't a big deal. But when climbing the mountains it was harder. Thanks for watching!
🙌 P_R_O_M_O_S_M!!
Love ABR! We used to drive up from Central Illinois. Ironically, we live in Mid-Michigan now, and the route is less direct/longer, but there are some good x-country areas in the mitten. Heading up to Cross Country Ski Headquarters for the weekend in a couple of days though. Still, nothing like skiing in the UP.
I agree. I live in the Twin Cities and make the drive when we don't have enough snow here which is quite often.
Hey Chad, thanks for making this video. Do you notice that the internal mic on the ZV-1 picks up the internal camera sounds especially in a quiet room? I noticed this in my last video, and it's kinda annoying, especially for shots that don't have any talking, as it becomes easier to hear the camera noises in the audio when nobody is talking. Thanks dude!
I don't think I've had as much experience inside as you have. Most of my recordings are outdoors. I appreciate your input on this.
@@chadmurphy7939OK, thanks anyways! Just ordered a rode videomicro and will see if it helps. Cheers!
Fantastic, but the internal mic is good. Ulanzi Sairen Nano is a great choice too.
Thanks for your comments. I agree that internal mic performed well.
HOW TOUGH WAS CHICKEN OUT RIDGE? AND ARE THERE MARKS ON THE TRAIL GOIN UP AND THHRU CHICKEN OUT?
The trail up to Chicken Out Ridge is easy to follow but the ridge itself is not as obvious. We were lucky because we got to watch someone go before us. In terms of difficulty. You must use your hands and I am a little afraid of heights so I made a point of not looking down and just continuing to climb. Overall this is a steep climb almost from the very beginning but also very rewarding. Hope that helps.
Very impressive video and background music! Thanks for sharing it with us! I’m near Sheridan, WY as part of my road trip and I planned to this hike in Oct but it seems to be too cold on Cloud Peak, so not sure if I can make it but throughly enjoyed your video.
Thanks for the feedback. I sure hope you get the chance. If nothing else maybe you can get out and enjoy this amazing wilderness.
Nice video. Looks like a great adventure and like you enjoyed it a lot.
Thanks for the feedback and it really was a cool adventure.
Looks like you had a wonderful little adventure!
Cool trip man. I love the Black Hills. I try to make it out there once a year.
I don't blame you for trying to get out there each year. Our trip reminded me that it really is a cool place. Thanks for watching!
Here is the link to the route we took in the Black Hills. th-cam.com/video/JPnffbS1mPc/w-d-xo.html
Great video--excellent shot & explanations. I liked that you minimized the amount of music--I love to hear the wind & water & footsteps. You could enhance your videos by including shots of maps explaining your routes. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Christopher! I love when people are able to show the maps too. That's a skill I hope to master someday.
@@pastorchad8970 Hi Chad. An easy way to do it is to film your map in hand. Use a twig to show the trail/route you took. You can identify the map before you start referencing it. Take care.
It appears that you have an 18 ft Grumman with a lake keel. I have one as well (1976 vintage) and love it...but heavy.
It was a beast to haul around but it tracks so great in the water. Thanks for watching.
@@pastorchad8970 That's for sure. The lake keel seems to scrape every rock available...but that is probably operator error.
Excellent video! I felt I was skiing with you.
Thanks Mike! I try to get up there every year and ski. It's a cross-country skiing paradise.
@@pastorchad8970 I hope to get up there soon. This winter for sure.
Wow. That trip is truly epic. I must say I'm very impressed with all you accomplished...and in just one week to boot! Your choice of music for the entire video was very well done, but I must say the Rocky theme going up Cloud Peak is utterly fantastic! I've been up Cloud, and the music says it all. I almost teared up when you got to the top and 2001 (Also Sprach Zarathustra) accurately expressed what it feels like to reach the summit and look down the cliff at Glacier Lakes. Brilliant! Thanks for a great vid! I really enjoyed watching and appreciate you letting us share in your journey.
Thank you Mike! I've gone back and hiked this area again. It really is a special place. When I saw the bomber wreckage I got choked up again.
PASTOR Chad, Do you ever come up with church groups. I am a committed follower of Christ and would enjoy meeting some of you? Thanks and tell me about your church.
I'm on staff at a church called Mercy Road in Burnsville Minnesota. Our website is: mercyroadmn.com I've been up to Ironwood three times but have come solo.
Wonderful footage and commentary. We are moving to Hurley in Janurary and your video psyches me.
Thank you for your comments. What a wonderful place to live if you love the outdoors. I live in the Twin Cities and hope to come up again soon.
Enjoyed this impressive hike in one of Colorado's premier areas. You really pounded out the miles on this trek. Looks like your climbing legs weren't arguing back with you on this trip. Videos like this are helping me enjoy Colorado vicariously since I cancelled my trip out this summer. If you're thinking about spending more time in Colorado, you might want to check out some of the sections of the Colorado Trail between Lake City and Silverton or in the Collegiate Peaks area, or the Weminuche Wilderness. Congratulations on completing this challenging loop.
Thanks again John. Thanks also for the tips on other possibilities in Colorado.
Thanks for another tour of the Cloud Peak Wilderness and your route on this trip. More great scenery captured very well. The creek side therapy session looks like a day at the spa for outdoor types. As a pilot and armchair aviation history enthusiast, I'm particularly interested in visiting the B-17 crash site as well as another one in the Winds next summer. Two thumbs up!
Thanks John! I get emotional every time I see the wreckage at Bomber Mountain. It's quite an experience.
Very well done video of your hike and all the great scenery. Thanks for your introduction to the Big Horns, plan to spend some time there next summer. As a flatlander from the southeast, I've had the same conversation with my legs (and my lungs!) but not nearly as polite as you described yours. My experience is take 20 steps, stop, suck air...take 20 steps, stop, suck air...repeat. And crossing the Narrows reminded me of why I'm not a peak bagger. The views from the top were spectacular. Congratulations on your summit!
Thank you John. I liked this trip so much that I went back this summer. Hiked Bomber Mountain again and saw some additional scenery. I really love the Big Horn mountains! Hope you have a wonderful trip next year.
The video is in August... when did you go? August?
of course... I got deeper into the video and you answered it for me... great vid
Good job Chad! Just got back myself a few days ago
Thank you! It was such a fun trip.
I love it up there especially after fresh snow! Thanks for watching.
Everything is so beautiful!
I enjoyed your video. I've been thinking of doing this trail with my 25 year old son this coming year. What made you chose Tensleep as your starting trailhead? I'm coming from Minnesota and wonder if there are opportunities to start the trail further east. I also assume you brought in all your supplies for the hike without resupply, is that correct? If so what did you bring for food? I appreciate what you have to share. Thanks, Barry
Thanks for watching the video! I chose Tensleep because the Forest Ranger thought it was easier for my little car to get up that trailhead. It really is a wonderful loop hike. I hope to do it again someday. I did carry all my food. I had a stove and made dehydrated meals at night and ate bars and peanut butter and jelly on tortillas for lunch. I filtered my water and it seems like there was plenty of water sources. I hope you guys get to go!
@@chadmurphy7939 Thanks for the quick reply. I've been looking at the trail map and for most of the trail you have to carry out your own human waste. How did you deal with this restriction?
@@BarryStahl I must confess I got lucky and did not have to go in those restricted areas. But I think you need to go prepared to carry out your waste. There may be actual bags made for this but I simply brought Ziplocs just in case.
Fun video! Looks like a great trip.
We had a blast even when we were vastly outnumbered by the bugs.
If you haven’t been to the BWCA, it’s trip everyone need to do once in their life.
Beautiful Country! What's next?
Good question. I'm daydreaming about the possibilities as I write! 🤔🤔
Chad that was awesome!
Thanks Vinnie, it is such an amazing place!
Possibly the best video on the Solitude Trail I have seen. Thanks for sharing and God bless.
Thanks! Glad you liked it. I was shocked how beautiful this hike was.
Why am I scratching as I watch this? B-)
Nice video! It's pretty tough out there right!?
The portages and bugs can be challenging but it is so worth it. Thanks for the feedback!
Really beautiful place and your video is great.
Thanks Dan! We had a great trip and it is a special place.
Congratulations, that is quite accomplishment! I'm a fellow Minnesotan and spent quite a bit of time in the Bighorns, its one of my favorite places. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Brian, most of the people I encountered on the trail were from Minnesota. It's such a great place to hike and it's really not that far away.
Cool! Very well done. I really appreciate seeing that.
Thanks Mark, it is an amazing place to hike.
Thanks for sharing! I’m heading there in May for the first time, can’t wait to see it in person! 💛
Hope you have a great trip. There is some amazing things to see.
@@chadmurphy7939 Thanks, hoping the bugs aren't too bad!
@@ErinSotoPhotography It might be wise to bring both bug spray and at least a mosquito net for your head just in case.
Oh my gosh, will do!
Enjoyed your trip and a well done video. I have hiked most of those areas but never the complete Solitude trail but am planning to this August. Your experience has increased my anticipation even more. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome! I hope to go back someday. This hike was even better than I had imagined. I hope your trip works out.
Awesome video. I am taking a group of boy scouts up there this summer in August. About how long did it take you to hike up cloud peak and back?
I think it took me about 7 hours to go up and back down. On the top third of the hike there is a lot of rock scrambling. There are rock carnes but it is not easy to find the best route.
Hi Chad, just watched your video. What kind of shoes are you using in the water with the orange soles? They look very comfortable. Where can you get them?
Believe it or not those were simply water shoes from Walmart. They survived that trip and another trip out to Wyoming.

@@chadmurphy7939 My pleasure Chad. You did an amazing job of showing me the high places so close to me that I have not yet stepped upon.
