    Good video. That first bit in the bottom of the valley looked very flood susceptable. I do get a chuckle when people visiting distant countries expect them to have the same sanitary standards as the US. Men from poorer countries have to make a living as they can. The guide company is probably an important financial resource for the locals. Happy Trails. Good Luck, Rick

      @@richardross7219 Haha oh trust me I have been around and seen some things, but it’s been a minute since I’ve been in a country with squatter toilets haha! And you’re absolutely right about making a living. Our guide told us that it’s a huge problem in Nepal - there just aren’t many jobs. Young people have to leave the country because they can’t get hired anywhere. But yes I think tourism definitely helps! There were plenty of tourists out there so I imagine these guiding companies are for sure adding to the economy.

    Seems like you have plenty of food. I will be starting my hike this coming August and I plan on stopping in Jefferson. I believe they take resupply boxes at the general store. I will be hiking with my dog and I carry all of her food and gear so my pack can get pretty heavy even though my base weight falls into the UL category. I am an East Coaster and that first 100 or so should be a challenge. The thin air is an issue for me and I am not young anymore. I feel by the time we get to Twin Lakes we will feel much better. We are going to stay a few days or longer in Breck. My wife is going to fly out and visit us. She was learning about the trail and she told me I should watch your videos, she knows what she is doing she said. I told her I have watched them all and some multiple times. Take care

      Thank you! And no worries - we absolutely loved the trail anyway! One of my all-time faves. :) And the weather made it empty which was pretty magical.

    I can smell the ocean as you are hiking the high water line. It’s just beautiful!! Did you have much of a problem with condensation in your tent??

    Thanks for all the information. I am debating on the bear sack. If you go the REI site the reviews for the Ursack are very up and down. The people that love them have never had a bear try to get into them and the people that hate them will tell you they did nothing to stop a bear. I am certainly not carrying a bear can so I guess will flip a coin. I will admit for decades I slept with my food and sometimes I still do. I have never had an issue. Thanks for sharing all of your experience. I am taking notes and making my plans for 2025. I am excited and nervous. The altitude, blazing sun and T storms concern me. I am sure I will adjust. Take care

      I always pair the Ursack with an odor-proof bag. I'm sure this system is not infallible, but I have used it a ton in the backcountry and never had an issue. And I've had rodents chew on my shoes a few times in the night in my vestibule but have never noticed any chew marks on my Ursack haha! So I think it is doing something. :)

    I was planning on doing the CT this year but it did not happen. My wife has a big surgery so I was needed at home. I am back on for next year, 2025. This will be my first long distance hike in the West. I am an East Coast AT, LT hiker. My concerns are altitude, T storms, blazing sun and water. I plan on starting late August or early September. I am trying to avoid the heat. I have skied Colorado a lot so I know how the altitude feels. Back in the day I drove out from Massachusetts and pulled a permit and climbed the Grand Teton. I made the climb but got very sick. I was like my worst hangover. I hike with my dog so I will be bypassing those first few miles. I plan on taking is easy until my lungs adjust. I will watch your videos again and take some notes. Thanks so much.

      Ahhh sorry about your wife but I hope she is doing well now/ has recovered! As far as your concerns, there is plenty of water on the CT. There's just a couple of spots where you have to carry it for 10 miles or so but as long as you're paying attention to where the next water source is, it's totally fine. If you start in late August/ early September, you will also likely miss monsoon season, which is what brings in the afternoon storms. You will probably still have to deal with heat though unfortunately, at least until you get high into the mountains. As far as altitude... the nice thing is that you start fairly low (around 5,000 or 6,000 feet) and climb up slowly and stay fairly high. So I personally did not have any issues. You could always bring some Diamox along if you're nervous about it!
