I really appreciate seeing the cliff section from that perspective. I'm supposed to attempt the hike this year, and all the videos I've watched so far scare me when I see that part (as you mentioned). This gave me a little more realistic visual of it.

Take plenty of water. I hiked it in the summer. My temp. Guage recorded 110. It was easier than Elwood Peak and Little Bear Peak in Colorado which i climbed the day before. I was 64.

CSP is so underrated! I grew up in the area and spent so many weekends there. It's still my favorite park and I'll drive from the Dallas area if i want a good hike without a ton of people around! I love going in the middle of the week when no one is there, I like to bring ny hammock and hang by the lake for a few hours after my hike. Great hiking trails that you can string together to get in whatever length you want with enough of a challenge. And the wildflowers in the spring are amazing!

Fantastic work man! Hike looks and feels so enjoyable! Love it

You’re killing it Cameron!!! Yeah it’s disappointing that people dispose of their trash on trail. We have always seen a few beer bottles, but that’s about it. It’s also sad that you have to tell people you are making a joke!!😂

Great job! You rock!! Gives us a goal 😂

Great job! You rock!!

I enjoy these installments you’re doing from the state park. Interesting about the layers of temps out there. I agree about Jason’s podcast. I listened to Backpacker Radio mainly when I’m at the gym and a lot when I was on the CT to pass the time. It was an acquired taste for me the same. lol.

Looked like a great time. There is something special about sitting on the porch of that house. Thanks for showing us the far side of the park.

Nice one. Sucks about the trash.

Great job! I appreciate you making a goal and striving to reach it. I haven't gone hiking on even my local trail for a little over a year. My first goal for the new year is to get some miles in on that trail. Congrats on reaching your goal and thanks for some inspiration.

Crushing those miles! Are you secretly training for an ultra-marathon? Cameron Hall channeling that Cameron Hanes mentality? 😆 Keep at it, hoss!

I live within a hour of cleburne state park but have never been. Getting ready for a backpacking trip in Guadeloupe national park soon. If you’ve ever been, Any recommendations?

And here I was feeling good about myself for going around once last Wednesday and Friday. Hahaha That stump bridge was a little shaky. People may not be able to appreciate the fact those rocky rollercoaster ascents and descents are 100' to 125' in steep elevations and that mileage was not all flat hiking. Did you know there used to be a minibike trail on your fun run? Great effort Cameron. You deserve to go to Taqueria Mexicano 🤓

My daughter and son in law are heading there today and climbing the peak tomorrow. I expect the winds and temperatures will be brutal.

My Guad man ! Meeting you has been special because I met you here first, you have taught me all there is to know about the Guads, the area expert I so enjoy seeing you in this your fav areas. When I visited my special place after so many years knowing I will probably never see it in person again was the best memory I could have I know how you feel about that. Thank you for sharing this place I felt I just visited here with you both. The narration is so special the best trail tour guide. The perfect weather and time of year. Best 2025 coming your way. :)

California will be tough to visit. Same with Washington. You will be in fora tough time for Alaska. I must admit it looks like fun.

Another awesome video! Makes be nostalgic form my hike last year through Shumard Canyon. Next time I go back I am definitely going to plan more time to check out the ranch and explore further around the mountains like y'all did. The mountains look so epic from that west side! Thanks for sharing!

Great video !!! The porch was like that for a few years now.

Cameron was there any usable water at the Bone Canyon Spring? Any where else? Looked like a great trip.

Great trip! Being on the mountains is great, but there's something about being at a vantage where you can appreciate those huge cliffs. I love trips where you can bask in some barely-remembered history and feel connected to the place.

Awesome video! Very inspiring.

Spectacular trip Cameron !! Views for miles in the beautiful Texas desert !! I grew up in El Paso , but didn't get into backpacking until I moved to California and began my love of Backpacking in the Sierras . I'm definitely going to try and do some trips out there !! Those canyons and peaks are amazing . Thanks for taking us along !!!

Man, this is just a stunning area. Maybe one of these days this old man can make it out there before I hang up my spurs. There is cattle out there. It’s considered trespass grazing and I read where it’s been a problem for the park service because it creates unnatural competition with wildlife.

I'm really envious of you two. This was an awesome trip and I really enjoyed watching your and Travis's videos. I never hiked this side of GUMO so it really was a treat. Thank you so much for showing this and all I can say is WOW!

Wow! I would have fallen numerous times due to staring up at El Cap. Thx for the show and tell!

Looks like an amazing adventure

I can’t express how special it was to go on a backpacking adventure with the person who first inspired me to try backpacking, in the very mountain range that shaped so many of your incredible videos. I really enjoyed your take on our trip-your narration and style are what drew me to backpacking and sharing my adventures on TH-cam. It was a journey for the books, and I’m thrilled we captured it with two unique perspectives to remember it by. Running into those utility vehicles and workers was quite a surprise, but after the meetup at South Llano, I’m just glad they were clothed 🤣. It was an absolute pleasure adventuring with you, amigo!

As a former GUMO seasonal ranger in the 1970’s, I’m familiar with the Williams ranch area but not the Kincaid trail that you took so I really enjoyed seeing it in your video! A great hike and I appreciate it!

Have wanted to hike the trail around El Cap for a while now. Thanks for the "in the weeds" view of it!

Great video! I really enjoyed my armchair travel with you. I learned the hard way that if you back flush with tap water the mineral deposits will clog up the filter. I backflush with RO or distilled water now.

Awesome video! Makes me want to plan a trip out there!

Looks like Dog Canyon is closed until they can fix the well!

Nice video 🙂👍

Nice video Cameron! Did the El Capitan hike from Pine Springs out to Shumard and Williams ranch house on April 8, 2024 the day of the total eclipse. It was epic for me and one I'll never forget. I think it was even more epic than the trail up to McKittrick Ridge although they are just so different. Thanks again!

Da viewwwwwwws !!!

Big DAy! wow that's a lot of loops/ beautiful fall hike. love the long straight tree corridor! thanks for taking us along

cool artifacts and Awesome mountain views thanks for taking us along

Beautiful hike!!

I have not been on the western slopes "yet". Looks great.

Talked to Travis about y'all's trip last night, so dope. I'm looking forward to seeing more footage from Pure Well. I had no clue it was so far away from the ranch! He told me you didn't make it all the way to goat :( just means you gotta go one more time...

I think this was your best video yet. Well done. I haven’t been to that side of the park and you did it justice.

That's a great video! I really enjoyed it.

I love it!

Great hike. I have been wanting to go to Williams Ranch myself.

hell yeah!

It’s surreal to think that I was lounging on the porch at Williams Ranch House with the person who inspired me to try backpacking in the first place. Sore knee and prickly pokes aside, it was truly an incredible adventure. Thanks again for inviting me, Cameron!

Was that Travis T with you? These new style videos are great Cameron. A nice presentation of what's to come. Very well done and I bet y'all had a great time.

Beautiful. I still gotta get out there.
