UN - REAL!!!! That water crossing in the dark was horrendous!! I found myself leaning to one side towards the side of safety. What a relief when Dave made it across ok. And as if that wasnt enough, the very steep climb up the mountain. You guys are absolutely amazing. You can be proud of yourselves. Not to mention cowboy camping at 28 degrees. We are all cheering for you out here in TH-cam land, believe me. I'm captivated by your videos and watch like a hawk for the next one. Take care.
You guys are amazing. I’m so glad you lived through it! I’ve been on some of the PCT and the JMT , and I have scaled mountain ridges in snow shoes but never have I seen a water crossing like what you guys did across the log with your micro spikes. That was incredible. I wait every day to watch your videos. I am just really loving them. You guys are really busting your butts and you’re doing so great. I hope you’re so proud of yourselves because I know we sure are proud of you guys.
Hats off to you guys what a great video again hearts in mouth .think you should have gone back up for your tent poles 🤣not.take care out there just catching up after our vacation best regards from the U.K. 👍😃🇬🇧
Wow!! Grumbles wife must have gone into heart failure watching him cross on that log. I think I held my breath the whole time just watching him! This episode was a true testament of GODGER POWER!! You guys are awesome!! Seriously though, I'll be glad when you guys get back to dirt, because WE LOVE DURT!! Take care gentlemen. I'm more than appreciative for sharing your journey.
There's no way I would have done that log crossing! That was amazing scary to watch. I can only imagine how your wives felt watching that. God be with you on this wonderful journey. What memories you will have!
Thank you for the great videos. The stream crossings are spectacular. You are doing the beat thing on the upstream side of the log. In case you fall in you can grab the log. Why are you guys worried about the raging stream crossings? You have health insurance and life insurance? Better yet you feel lucky? That is the Mather pass that people before you warned about. They say that south approach is very steep and dangerous. We just came back from 8 days at Convict lake near Mammoth Lakes. It is at only about 7,000 feet elevation with huge water flow into the lake. I hiked up about 5 miles up stream about 2,000 feet higher and it is all snow in the valley bottoms. About 7 days ago the weather warmed with night lows in the upper 40s. Daytime was in the upper 70s and low 80s. The snow is melting so fast 24 hours a day. Wow, loosing your tent poles and a glove sounds bad. I lost my tent TYVEK ground cloth in the upper Yosemite NP at above 10,000 feet years ago. I just have to remember to lay out everything while packing. That way I don't forget something important. Evolution creek / stream / raging river? By taking Bishop pass and coming back at North Lake and Piute pass you avoid the lower Evolution valley creek and steam. I have crossed lower Evolution creek in August of a very low snow and rain year. It was about 80 feet wide and about knee deep. I can only guess this year with record snow fall and melting it will be easily 100 feet wide and maybe near or over waist high. The worse is there are a series of water falls less than 300 feet down stream. Thanks again for the spectacular videos. Wendy
Have spent the last couple weeks watching your PCT and AT videos - it's just incredible what you guys are doing. Decided to add a comment after watching this video... Seeing the skills you've built and challenges overcome are truly inspirational. Godspeed gents, and looking forward to seeing what's on the trail ahead. All the very best!
Wow! Just wow! That spot you downstepped is called the Golden Staircase. That’s steep with the switchbacks! I can’t believe you down climbed that in snow. You guys are amazing & a pleasure to watch!
Wow, wow and wow. So incredibly proud of what you are doing and have accomplished. Kudos to Skeletor. Amazing vlog. Love your enthusiasm for all of it. Sending good vibes.
You don’t have to apologize about not getting more video. After watching that water crossing on the log I was out of breath. Thank you for sharing what you were able to film. Tent or not I am sure you will sleep well, it is well earned and deserved. Looking forward to what ever comes next. Be safe and hike on.
That water crossing looks so scary and not safe at all. So glad nothing happened to You two Codgers but can't help thinking about your back up plan if one of you went down in the water. I understand that you hadn't seen it coming and therefor was taken by surprise. .....so scary It looks like it was a very tough day and then you top it with cowboy camping for the first time...and on top of that doing it in the Sierras. Wauw. Can't wait to see next episode because You to are just amazing
Treacherous terrain, glad you guys have it handled, just keep it that way! I think at this point, Skelator, whether or not ya'll continue on together or not, is an honorary Codger. Hike on, stay safe!
Omg . What a day , is an understatement. That was amazing. Have your families recovered after seeing this?😅 Thankyou for sharing your incredible journey. Continue to stay safe and have fun. ❤️🇨🇦
I’m binge watching, trying to catch up. Christy, you must have had some anxiety editing this one! Well done, Codgers. You are both an inspiration for this old, female codger.
OMG! That made me nervous just to watch you crossing that water. This is exactly why I'm hoping to find hiking partners for my trip. Can't imagine doing that alone. Good job!
🫣 and then 😳 and then 😮 holy geez Codgers, you're gonna give us all heart attacks! That water crossing was insane! I think I would have looked at it and sat down to wait until August or so 😂
Ok you guys! That was the most insane crossing I’ve ever seen! I said you guys rock but now I’m doubting your sanity !!! I can’t believe you guys did that! Although easy to say when you don’t know if there was an alternative.
Crazy creek crossings - glad you made it. I'll be there in a month and hoping the water crossing have calmed down a little. I look forward to your videos as I'm plus 60 and glad to see a couple of codgers doing so well.
My cheeks were puckered just watching that log crossing and I have hiked this section twice but nothing like that. Sounds like the Golden Staircase wasn't a staircase of switchbacks but straight down😮. Congratulations on a day well done.
Oh my gosh! That was horrifying! You guys are so brave! Then the cornice and ice fields! Dang! 😮congratulations on getting over that river and through the pass!! 🎉
Super well done 👍 But MAN that was sketchy 😮 not sure about that river crossing…🙈 We always think there would be less water during the night, but I am not sure now… seems there was more and more water going over that log… Anyhow, you made it, congrats with Mather Pass! 😅
Proud you guys 👍🏼. Glad you had your spikes on the log crossing. One thing you don’t had is a stick pole long and narrow, about 9’ long . Extend out forward upstream and lean in. Gorgeous up there, prettiest I have seen. You guys are getting seasoned for sure, great work.
Wow, what an insane day, even compared to the other extreme days in the Sierra. That water crossing, omg, and in the dark - my hike would have ended right there!! tbh, I wouldn't have gone past Kennedy S, if I even made it that far! You guys are doing incredible and so great that you have an awesome friend there in Skeletor helping. Stay safe fellas, cheers!
Wowsers, good grief, & holy smokes. Intrepid is an understatement. Each day brings more challenges, & the scenery continues to be spectacular. Thanks so much for the gripping footage you do take.
Great work, codgers! Familiar with this stretch of trail from hiking the JMT in Aug 2020-I can only imagine that steep descent in snow/ice. You guys are an inspiration. Thanks for the videos!
Scott is a GODsend. I'm loving this high adventure from the comfort, warmth and safety of my home. Keep it rolling boys... you got this (God's hand is on you).
The waterfalls at the beginning are gorgeous! I think the name of this particular video should be “sketchy all the way” 😮 The stream/log crossing definitely made my BP go up a few points. Wishing you safe and easier travels on the trail 😊
My heart was beating fast just watching you cross on the log. Wow! Just an awesome job. Thanks for No Filter demonstrating how you get down the mountain. Sorry to hear about your lost items. Just curious if No Filter will share his tent in the next 2 days if inclement weather comes in at night. 😊
Wow, just wow! I think you guys have experienced several rights of passage into seasoned thru hikers! That log crossing in the early part of the video looked very sketchy. The straight up ascent to Mather Pass, including rock scrambling! Rumbles losing your tent poles and taking it in stride to cowboy camp, joined by loyal, true blue No Filter. I'm with No Filter about the snakes, but no problem in the snow.😊 You guys are this years PCT heros.
Losing essential gear in the wilderness sucks ... I had this happen while doing back country bushwhacking up above overlook ridges over Desolation Wilderness in early spring there was enough snow to climb over Manzanita bushes when I arrived at the top of the ridge the snow depth was about 8 feet deep. I went to stake out a tent site took my pack off to discover my shelter was gone 😳 I am like .... What am I going to do ? Because the snow depth was so deep the branches of the pine trees were sticking into the snow and frozen easy and perfect to break off for building a snow cave. The floor was all fresh scented pine branches which kept me off the snow I used my ground sheet to provide the ceiling along with pine branches making a snow cave.. To this day it was one of the best shelter experiences I have ever known ❤ I know once you get into Bishop you will be able to order new poles. I am glad you guys are having the Jeremiah Johnson experience in the Sierra be careful keep a watch out for that old Codger that likes playing with Grizzlies 😅 These memories will always be with you.. Thank you for sharing your journey with the world - rebo
Perhaps it was just an oversight, but generally one wants to unbuckle their pack waist strap when crossing rivers so they can quickly get free of your pack in the event they end up in the water. Stay safe. I'm really enjoying catching up on your travels. I just returned from a 12-day trek at Philmont with my son. When flying home over the Sierras, it still looked like May on July 3.
Great job. Crossing the South Fork of the Kings is difficult in the day time. Can’t even imagine crossing it in the dark! Enjoy Le Conte Canyon. Compared to what you experienced today, it’ll be a cake walk. Keep filming enjoy watching your progress
And I thought Dateline “Secrets Uncovered” was bad! I then go for my night cap of “Hiking with the Codgers” and find myself grinding my teeth and gripping my seat trying to make sure you guys don’t fall! Surely this trip has got to be the most spectacular & challenging ever! The AT has got nuthin over the Codgers hiking the Sierra! Wow! Glad you are safe and saw a hint that you were looking to flip north for a spell. Looking forward to more lively adventures-FYI mountain lions and bears are hungry in Nor Cal.
Wow!! What a day, I can only imagine what your wives are going to say after watching you cross a raging river on a log barley above the water. Haha (LOL). It was an amazing day... Stay safe, stay dry!
I've done some iffy creek crossings, but that is one where I would have done some more searching for a different place. Too sketchy for me. Was that the South Fork of the Kings? It's got some good flows even in an average year. The lakes north of Mather are Upper and Lower Pallisade Lakes, then you descend the Golden Staircase to the string of meadows below it and the South Fork of the San Joaquin (I believe). p.s. I cowboy camp whenever I can. Love the views of the stars better than a tent/tarp.
The crossing was South Fork Kings. North of Mather Pass they decended Palisade Creek to Middle Fork Kings. South Fork San Joaquin is north of Muir Pass, below the Evolution Creek crossing (which would have been really crazy this year). I'd have loved to see the cascade on Evolution Creek at the big drop into the South Fork canyon. 🙂
Stephen Mather was a millionaire (borax) and conservationist who was not only the first director of the National Park Service (1917-1929), he *created* the NPS.
UN - REAL!!!! That water crossing in the dark was horrendous!! I found myself leaning to one side towards the side of safety. What a relief when Dave made it across ok.

We are all cheering for you out here in TH-cam land, believe me. I'm captivated by your videos and watch like a hawk for the next one. Take care.
Yikes! I think that log crossing in the dark was about the scariest thing I've seen in a PCT video. What an epic adventure you Codgers are having!
That would scare the...... out of me too. That river crossing was insane. Then that near vertical climb. Amazing. Well done gents.
Be Careful fellas,, thats scary shit,, you guys are doing amazing...
You guys are amazing. I’m so glad you lived through it! I’ve been on some of the PCT and the JMT , and I have scaled mountain ridges in snow shoes but never have I seen a water crossing like what you guys did across the log with your micro spikes.

I hope you’re so proud of yourselves because I know we sure are proud of you guys.
Holy...what the...I'm not even finished with the video and the intro with those river crossings in the dark! 😱😱
The water crossing at the start of this video was really beyond acceptable risk. I'm glad it ended well.
That in-the-dark log crossing was NUTZ!!! 🥜
Pretty incredible amount of snow in upper basin and palisade lakes for July.. . Wow
This is the single greatest pct vlog I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot. You go guys
Hats off to you guys what a great video again hearts in mouth .think you should have gone back up for your tent poles 🤣not.take care out there just catching up after our vacation best regards from the U.K. 👍😃🇬🇧
No apologies necessary! Stay safe and keep trekking!
Stay Safe! Good Luck and Have Fun! The Codgers are hardcore!

YOU GUYS ARE TOTAL ROCK STARS!!!
You are some tough old dudes. Never seen a river crossing quite like that. You must have nerves of steel.
That’s one sketchy log crossing. Thanks for posting!
Great job guys, reallyadmire you both.
There's no way I would have done that log crossing! That was amazing scary to watch. I can only imagine how your wives felt watching that. God be with you on this wonderful journey. What memories you will have!
Great video guys! I can tell what you’re enduring is borderline amazing/insane!
Thank you for the great videos. The stream crossings are spectacular.

You guys make me proud to be a codger. Cowboy camping under the stars is the best. Stay safe. Bishop is 100 degrees today😳
Wow I have No Words ……🍃

That water crossing....yikes. That would have certainly turned me around. Stay safe, guys.
Just watching that crossing is nerve-wracking.
Oh my my heart was in my throat!!! You guys are so good. So careful. Wow!!
At the end of the video you speak of descending the "Golden Staircase" which is a S.O.B without snow. What you are doing is epic.
Legends, these dudes! LEGENDS!
Praying for you daily.
Be safe; keep at it!
Boy oh boy oh boy!
Job well Done

Yes that water crossing was something else.
What a day!! Whew.
Incredible work guys, nothing a codger can’t do.
Soo scary dudes , love your videos
OMG that water crossing was insane, hats off fir that one. Hope you survived your cowboy camping without making new friends 🐁🐻🐍
Take care, be safe! 👣
Oh my gosh! That was horrifying! You guys are so brave! Then the cornice and ice fields! Dang! 😮congratulations on getting over that river and through the pass!! 🎉
Bravo..........water starts......wow.......scary to watch.......little rope.......hands solo........bad azz.......cheers

You codgers rock! Stay safe and Happy Trails!
You guys are crazy and amazing.
Wowsers, good grief, & holy smokes. Intrepid is an understatement. Each day brings more challenges, & the scenery continues to be spectacular. Thanks so much for the gripping footage you do take.
You guys are crushing it!!!! Way to go!!!!

Just a normal day for the “SUPER HUMAN” Codgers!
Great Job! I had read that Mather was the toughest pass this year.
