This is the most spectacularly scenic hike I have been on yet. I hope you enjoy the magic of the Tetons!
thank you for such a beautiful video!
Thanks Kim happy to share with you!
Great video! I did an overnight backpacking trip in Grand Teton recently and I was blown away by how beautiful that park is.
Thanks Michael! Sounds like you had a sweet trip. The Tetons are definitely one of the most beautiful places to backpack
This is my favorite area…hidden falls is beautiful next time you should check that out 👍 Great job
Thanks for the tip on Hidden Falls Richard - I’m always thinking about spending more time in the Tetons!
Great quote, great video!
Thanks TW I'm glad you liked the quote!
Layne, found your video while looking for into on the TCT! Great work man. So relaxing watching your video. Thanks!
Thanks Mizz, glad you enjoyed! The TCT is an incredible hike
The scenery in this one is incredible. I’m definitely adding the Grand Tetons to my bucket list.
The Tetons deserve to be on every bucket list, whether by car or by foot they are incredible
Yes, very scenic indeed. Thanks for sharing your adventure Layne! Well done!!!!
Thanks Jerry! Glad to be able to share
Teton Crest ...Awesome!!! thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for coming along Curt! The Teton Crest was very awesome
Layne thank you for sharing with us this awesome scenic hiking video of the Tetons 🙏
Thanks Ruth & Jim the Tetons are awesome
Absolutely stunning. You've outdone yourself! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the support Pop Pop!
Meanwhile I was drinking beer and splashing around the Madison river. We were practically neighbors. Hate I missed this one man, what an epic journey
Typical. I’m out there putting in work while you’re relaxing. Hate you missed it too, there’ll be more
That’s why I keep you around son!
Oh man, been patiently waiting on this one since you posted the short version. Watching now!
I won’t give away any spoilers while you watch Drew but I am excited to share this trip!
@@LayneComfort man you really channeled your inner Bob Ross on this one...love it! I've got to get out there one day it looks incredible.
Thank you, the Tetons are definitely a place worth visiting
Thanks so much! Helps me know what to expect for my trip next summer. Similar route but I'm taking tram to start and camping first night death canyon shelf. All the same after that.
Awesome tm, you’ve got a great route set up! You’re gonna love it out there

Great thanks Duda!
@@LayneComfort 👏👏👏
Wow nice videography. I will let that Duke comment slide.
Thanks Dave! We are all united against VT at this time
Insanely jealous, but super hyped! My family and I will be going to the Tetons for a week in September. Just frontcountry stuff, but I may be able to sneak in a long day hike or two. Areas like this just inject a spirit into you that's hard to describe. Beautiful!
It really is indescribable beauty out there. A lot of the Teton backcountry is actually quite accessible to long day hikes. Very cool that y'all are gonna get to experience this area.
23:30 ahhaha I didn't catch the "bear" story the first time through. Recently I figured out why deer are always coming into my camp at night and its because I pee to close to camp and they are after the salt!
Good to know haha I will keep that in mind!
What a great channel! Just did the TCT last July. The flowers were incredible. Liked and Subbed!
Thank you Steps! Awesome that you got to hike the TCT, what an experience it is. Happy trails
Fantastic video Layne! Stunning place. You were a real Dr. Dolittle on this one. I have no dog in the collegiate sports hunt but your Duke comment made me laugh. What made you go with a tent instead of a hammock? Lack of potential places to hang?
Thanks Seth! All the animals were the cherry on top of a beautiful area. Good question - I typically use a tent out west. The lay of the land usually makes it easier to find tent spots
Dude, those shots are unreal. If they look like that on camera, I can only imagine in person. Great job on another successful journey - you're unstopable. What's it like backpackpacking at 10,000 feet?
Yeah totally, any video could never do justice. Fortunately I was well acclimated by this trip, having spent a week at 7,000"+. I did get roasted by the sun way up there.
Halfway through, really enjoying this video Layne, how is the permit process for the national park?
Thanks Jarl, the permit process for GTNP is pretty tight for the popular parts. Online reservations for the year open in January and are first come, first served - gone quickly. They do reserve some spots for walk ups but I'd imagine they are in high demand.
@@LayneComfort Thats what I thought lol
The payoff is worth it though!
