@@KarlDeckerPresents I shared on social media and with the friend I hiked this with. We were talking about going back to do the traverse someday. He already did Crestone Needle. That class 5 climbing is WILD!
Really appreciate all the high quality footage leading up to the Adventure Zone! Man you captured some amazing images. Thought the route topo mapping was your best yet. Loved it all brother!!
I assume you have done it but the traverse is absolutely amazing if you also feel like knocking that out since you will be mostly there. Btw thank you for your video on the Pawnee traverse did it today and absolutely loved all of the direct ridge climbing!! Keep up the great videos man!!
Nice work on Pawnee, Huge adventure for a "little route." On a technical level, more then the Crestone traverse IMO. No way was I going to do the "Peak" without the traverse, was the whole reason I was there, You know it Man! After you saw the Peak video anyway. . .Cheers
Lots of devpoment since the 70's and 80's . Hope it hasnt become too crowded like many areas in Colorado . Made at least 37 different 5th class climbs in this massive and lots more 3rd class ones too.

Just started to enjoy the adventure then have wait another week :). If you want my 0.02, I'd combine them into one video for a more immersive and engaging viewing experience, like what you did for Little Bear -> Blanca traverse
Yep, it would be great, it is so much work to do an edit like this, it took every free moment get this one ready on time for the 1 a week youtube "schedule."
Interested to hear your perspective on the down-climb from needle after the traverse. I keep reading route finding is incredibly difficult which is halting me from giving it a shot.
James advice is very solid, I do believe the needle descent is the most dangerous part of the whole thing. I will have a covered in the next video as well, showing the Traverse out of the first gully.
This is Epic! I did Humboldt Peak last year and saw people paragliding off the needle. Your camera work is phenomenal by the way, mind me asking what type of setup are you using?
Amazing video!! Very well done. I'm the Brazilian that crossed paths with you at the Kelso's ridge knife edge. Are you in any other social medias (instagram, fb). I'm hoping to get the video of me crossing the knife edge

The satellite tour of these ascents are some of the best resources I have ever seen!
Glad to hear that! Karl 👍
Another great video, the red gulley makes a great snow climb to!
Appreciate it Eric, please share with a couple friends! Thanks man, may have to add a snow adventure to the list
Better and better! That look at Kit Carson was epic! The video really shows how gnarly it is!
Thank you brother, Kit Carson was a great trip too!
I did the Crestone traverse three years ago and absolutely loved it.
Me too! That last part past the tower is the $$$.
Can't wait! So awesome to meet you coming down as I was going up! Love your footage. Keep it up!
It was great meeting you too brother, hopefully will cross paths again.
Nice video!!! Unreal views...Pumped to see the traverse next week!
It was sweet, coming soon!
This video is amazing. So Beautiful!! These are still on my list. I can't wait. Thank You!!

Another great vid, Karl
Thanks Buddy, much appreciated 👍! Karl
Awesome start with the maps app laying out the area and route.
Hey appreciate that, most all of our vids have that in the intro... Karl

You were a busy mountaineer back then, good on you💪!
Hey Karl, I love your videos and can't wait to do the Traverse myself this summer! What was the song that started on 8:32?

Route finding really isn’t bad. It’s prolly a good idea to check out the standard route on the needle first then hit up the traverse.
It’s really just a matter of one turn out of the west gully of the needle. The traverse has like 1000 carins that are pretty hard to miss
James advice is very solid, I do believe the needle descent is the most dangerous part of the whole thing. I will have a covered in the next video as well, showing the Traverse out of the first gully.

Thanks my friend, I’m running a GoPro 9 and iPhone 13
Great video! Can I ask what your video equipment was?
Thanks man! Iphone 13 and GoPro 9 on this one, appreciate the comment 👍
Dude needs a leg day
Good companion👍
