    Could not have timed it more perfectly for the larches, truly incredible landscapes... what an epic hike! Wonder Pass has been on my bucket list for a while now, so this has really motivated me to try again for 2023!

      Seriously! The timing was perfect. I need to go back to do Wonder Pass as well. I’ve been through it once, and it was beautiful! But I didn’t take any photos or film anything.

    Hi!!
    soo Im newer to BC moved to Vancouver from Ontario.
    just found your channel doing some research about back packing out here!
    I've been hiking lots but have yet to do the overnight trips.
    Really searching to find myself some independence & I think nothing seems better then being self sufficient backpacking in mother nature!
    stoked to of found your page to be able to learn & watch some cool adventures.
    you seem super chill and down to earth!
    thankyou so much for sharing :)

    Does that mean you can't camp anywhere around the area you are in other than those places?
