George Aston yeah I was just saying the other day I like the new direction in style and editing. Fantastic job man. Hopefully my edits will get this good one day.
I find it amazing on how dedicated you are to show people like me the beauty and wonders of Idaho and how much work you put into your videos. Thank you
Thank you. The scenery is spectacular and you did a great job on the video. Hey, I really debated about whether to make this suggestion or not; I know a lot of this is personal preference but it seemed like your pack was riding way low on your back and the top was hanging back away from your shoulders. If you haven’t fiddled with the shoulder strap adjustments (upper and lower) you might try that next time and see if it feels better. Getting the pack up higher on your back and pulled in at the top towards your shoulders will help with center of gravity. Ugggg, you probably already know. Again, great video, enjoyed it!
Awesome first video of this loop! I took my dog on a day hike to Alice a few weeks ago (before the smoke rolled in thankfully!). It was amazing! We are definitely going to come back and do the whole loop in the next month!
That's such a beautiful place. I can't wait to get away from work this fall and hopefully be able to travel and hike some more amazing places like this one. Great video
This is dons so well! I love all the little details and perspectives. Very submersive. I can appreciate how much work goes into filming this while trying to cover mileage in the back country. Spot on🤙
A little somber to start, but picked up a good mood along the way. Great scenery. My tip for backpacking: If you carry Bear Vault brand food canister it makes a great seat for eating/hanging out around fire. Double use.
You're like Brett and Kraig and all these other backpackers that try to replace the chair with something that is not a chair. 😂 I'm telling you there's no substitute, once you take a chair, you'll never want to sit on your bear canister again.
The Adventures of Jon & Chad I actually own the little Helinox chair, but have never brought it on a backpacking trip yet. Pack is always too full. Maybe I’ll try it on a quick overnight hike when pack isn’t so full.
Thanks for the video. We are backpacking from Pettit Lake campground and starting later in the day. Are there any campsites with water along the route to Alice lake?
Nice job Jon! Looks inspiring, I imagine it's a lot more effort to setup and capture those long shots of your hike. Not sure I'm ready to take on overnight hiking yet, but could one do an out and back to Alice lake in a day?
Ya Gene, a lot of people make Alice just a day trip. Twin Lakes too isn't that much further. It becomes an overnighter if you want to get over Snowy Side Pass and over to Toxaway.
November is getting cold. But if the first snow hasn't fallen yet, you're good to go. I think October is the last month I'd do a "first" hike. The Sawtooths are never ugly but November is after the fall and before the snow so I wouldn't plan something epic for November.

Best one yet. Great job. I like the silence and sounds of nature. Great story telling!
Thanks! Ya it was fun playing with sound on this one.

Silence is underrated!
Thats a lot of hard work gone into this video. Good job.
Thanks! 🙏
You put a lot of effort into this. Production was excellent. Nicely done
Cheers mate 🍻

Yep I already knew that :) I don't think I have any of that gear anymore. Thanks for watching!

Nice! Next month is the month to do it in I think. Next year I'm doing the Sawtooths in October, I have a feeling that's the best month to visit them.
Yes, great camera placement, job well done 👍
Thanks!
Hiked there once and I want to go back. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Well done! Looks like FUN! We loved biking in Idaho!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!

Ya Jeff it's a great spot.

Thanks man! Ya I don't know if people who haven't put a hiking video together understand the amount of work that goes into it from start to finish.
Very well done! Back in the day we might have joined you on this adventure. Now, we just bike as much as we can!
Right on! Thanks for watching!
Love my Sawtooth range. Love my IDAHOME. Thanks for the share. ❤️
You're welcome!

@@morganhillbilly1475 I just got the helinox zero ultralight chair, its rad. Probably my favorite piece of gear. I love a good chair.
Love this video so much! Thank you for sharing 💜
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the video. We are backpacking from Pettit Lake campground and starting later in the day. Are there any campsites with water along the route to Alice lake?
There’s 1 but it’s right off the trail and not very scenic. The best thing would be to get to Alice.
Loved this.
Awesome! I'm glad.

how far into the fall would you go into the sawtooth area? Is november getting too sketchy for snow conditions? truly inspiring

How long did it take to get from Tin Cup Trailhead to Alice Lake? Was it Difficult?
I miss the days of solitude
I'm sorry to hear that :(
I would love to hike and swimm naked in this landscape.
Lol, ok then!
Where can I find the shirts that you wear, that rep Idaho???
