I have to add Honey Comb to my list. I haven't hiked over there, just the trails off Liesles Gulch. I do know there are two more homes to the north of that one in your video. There are also some abandoned pioneer cabins. I have a few of them marked on Gaia. The shots in this video are fantastic. I haven't done any camera work in two years since Covid. This makes me want to get back out and do stuff. Great video. Great inspiration. I'm thinking the Painted Canyon Loop though might be the perfect spot to take the truck and setup the RTT and do a day trip with the kiddo. Solid 9 miles round trip. Keep them coming!
Sweeeeeet!!! Another fantastic hike! Breathtaking views from your drone.. makes me wish I could fly. But alas, I will settle for following your tracks in the snow.
Outstanding video Jon. When I first started hiking the Owyhees, I couldn't believe how much some of the geography seems like you've been dropped in southern Utah. Bighorn sheep are incredible, huh? See them pretty regularly in the White Clouds. Given that the White Clouds also have first rate fishing, you should add them to your list, if not there already. Great outro as well. In the words of Emerson, 'the journey is the destination'. Cheers, Chris
Grats on another epic adventure. The narrative of finding ones edge as we look inside ourselves, love it love it love it. I call this the good pain or buzz, when hiking solo. Once again, thanks for sharing and taking us along. That area is so wide open and 99.9% never see it first person.
Beautiful new adventure you had out there Jon. Thank you very much for sharing, I really enjoyed watching all the beautiful shots and hiking vibes. Take care and happy hiking, Mario
Nice video. I love the Owyhee's and venture out there frequently on the Idaho side, Reynold's Creek Canyon, Toy Pass, Silver City, Little Jack's/Big Jack's Creek areas. Still more to explore. The best part is nobody goes out there. Now I'm interested in exploring the Jarbridge Mountains at the Idaho/Nevada border where the Owyhee's end. Just subscribed.
When we discovered the Owyhees I became so obsessed, who knew this place existed with that kind of landscape??? This hike is on my list I'm so glad you posted this video, thank you!
You are a brave man doing that alone, especially in the winter. So, every time I think I’m cold in my 20 degree bag, sleeping on a nice pad, inside my tent I always think of some cowboy or John Muir himself sleeping on the ground with a wool blanket. I seriously don’t know how they did it back then. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
A little bit late here but I'm really digging your channel man. I really appreciate you sharing some of trips you take in these big open canyon lands. I watched a few of your videos in Hell's Canyon and Craters of The Moon great stuff. I find myself exploring areas like this just to avoid people and heavily used trails and it looks like you enjoy the same kind of thing. Looking forward to content!
Man, that was an awesome video. The terrain and colors and textures were great. Some of those transition shots from the drone to close up were really powerful. Thanks for taking us along on "the edge" you're pushing into.
Great video Jon. I love that hike. One of my favorites. Glad to see there are a few California bighorns left out there. They had a had winter in 2016 followed by epizootic pneumonia that reduced the population by 90%. Did you see any deer? Love the drone footage too!! Good job man.
Thanks man. No deer. No signs of deer even. I’m no expert but I’m gettin better with tracks and scat and realized half way through I wasn’t seeing deer sign. Coyotes the whole way and the rams and that’s all I saw with 4 legs
That house looked definitely lived in, I wonder who owns it. You should have left them a note, and asked to interview them. Some people got plots in what are now national parks from old mining claims and stuff, so every so often you do see something like that. I wonder if they live off the land, hunting and fishing, and if it's a hermit or a group of people.
Awesome content as always. This place has been on the list! What's with the bear spray? Have there been reports of cougars here? -25 degrees is serious business. That kinda temp requires a hot tent and stove in my mind.
I know the people who own that cabin, and yes, they do use it. I’d venture to say they wouldn’t be thrilled to know someone opened their closed gate to go walk around and film it.. but maybe not. Cool video nonetheless.
I took good care of it :) Many areas have cabins like that that the forest service preserves and people can use. No lock on the gate. No sign that it was private property. No keep out sign. Could've been abandoned. Could've been a historical sight. Zero signs it's private property.
@@JonConti I also use those hand warmers to keep my batteries and other electronics warm. Put the warmers in a sock or some sort of cloth bag and then drop everything in one of those food cozies. Keeps them warm all night, and you don't have to sleep with them in you bag. Shameless plug for my video----> th-cam.com/video/ifs0CqMjPRQ/w-d-xo.html

Thanks! I went through the painted canyon, I wonder how you make that 9 miles? Cheers ✌

I think natures incredible 🙂. Sheep, rattlesnakes, goats. Anytime you’re able to interact with it it’s incredible.
No trails, no people....that's the main reason I love the Owyhee! :D Nice video - looks like a good time!
Thanks! It was 🙂

Just stumbled across your channel - love the quality of the audio and video. Def some of the better outdoor videos out there. Keep it up Jon!
Why thank you 🙏 thanks for watching!

I got read more about John Muir I know almost nothing about him.

Beautiful videography!! I’m born and raised here in Oregon and felt the cold through this adventure.🥶 Worth it!
Thanks Elan 🙂
Beautiful scenery...tough having an injury on a hike like that.
Thanks! It was worth it.
WHAT A scenery, simply outstanding video man. Love it.
Thanks man!
You are a savage! That was amazing. I’m up in Boise also so I’ll be trying out that hike at some point. Great videos!
Thanks man cheers!

"the toilet has been used..."
That’s what I should’ve named the video
I always enjoy your videos, from the editing to the monologue to the unique and real perspectives.. thanks for taking the time to share 🤙🏼
Your welcome 🙏
Awesome video Jon! Nice job. Love what you do!
Cheers Trent
Great video! Thank you.
Amazing production quality, great work !!!
Thank you 🙏
Sick Video! You managed to get some really crazy shots, excited to do this in a slightly warmer time of the year hahaha.
Lol. It gets hot as hell out there. Pick your poison.
That video of your tent all lit up at night with the stars was wow!! How’d you do that? I’m new to photography.
Keep up the good work. Good production.
Cheers

I didn't have anything to write with :)
It’s a simple family cabin. There are actually a lot on that reservoir

I just always carry bear spray 🤷♂️ you never know. Maybe you gotta chase off some coyotes or something
I enjoy your hiking videos. Would you be able to make them longer, closer to 30 minutes or so?
I could, but I’m not going too 🙂
Sickkkk. Besides pop tarts what food did you take with you?
Cheese, salami, cereal bars and coffee
Have you checked out Birch creek yet ???
Or is it the next video
That's pretty far down on the list right now
@@JonConti ok
Nice to hear a reply at least
Sweet video
Thanks homie

That was badass!
🙏
Hopefully I'll make the stream tonight! This is epic country though....
Ya man! Thanks for making the stream and giving me that hand warmer water idea 💪

“Coyotes will follow you the entire way”. 🤔. They aren’t shy ?
It’s hyperbole. You’ll hear them the entire time you’re out there and it makes you feel like they’re following you.
Why would he wear a bear spray where there's no bears to be found for miles?
Hey nephew! I have to say, you are turning into a bat-shit crazy outdoorsman! Good work and beautiful shots. I'm looking forward to our next adventure together.
