The HARDEST 1 Mile Hike in America | Black Canyon of the Gunnison
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- Could this be the hardest 1 mile hike in America? Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park rivals the Grand Canyon, and it is only a 1 mile hike to the bottom. Beginning from the south rim, we hiked the Gunnison Trail. This is one of Colorado's more unique hike. A primitive, meaning no trail markers, trail to the bottom of the canyon. Park rangers limit the permits to 15 PEOPLE per day down this trail. Snag one of these permits and you will not be disappointed. Black Canyon of the Gunnison is the most underrated park in Colorado and maybe the entire national park system.

This hike down is not that difficult if you are prepared...
Damn i had no idea this place was in my back yard. Colorado geography is trippy as hell
You two are hardcore! I’ll just take the road down to the bottom (when it’s open) 😆
Nice rare video of an under appreciated Park 🤙🏼
A very under appreciated park!
Planning to hike into the canyon with my little brother next week. When is the earliest you are allowed to get the wilderness permit? Can you get it the day before your hike?
We had covid rules so things might have changed. We did get our permit the day before at the visitor center.
Nice video, beautiful at the bottom. We are in our 60s and hike everywhere we can in the U.S. You'll be hiking at our age too, but probably not this one again, lol!
Beautiful views. Excellent videography.
Thank you!
✌️✌️✌️✌️ Nice VLOG! Thank you for sharing!Hi from Travelly 👍
Great hike guys. When yall were on the way down and in good spirits I was like "wait till they have to go back up". I haven't gotten the chance to do this yet but had a good friend do it and she said she wanted to cry on the way back up lol. It's so beautiful down there at the bottom I know it's worth it
that is so week climbing down with 5 dollar shoes with flat bottoms
Amber's shoes are Vivo barefoot. Both of us prefer a shoe that allows the foot to move and flex naturally. After a few weeks of slowly strengthening muscles to handle the lack of support, we have found this style to be our favorite. Thanks for watching!
Weak*
Love this, inspiring me for what I’ll check out on my way to Black Canyon of the Gunnison next week!
Hiking poles might help. Thanks for the video.
did this in oct 2020, awesome hike, and the poison ivy turning red in the late fall was something else. Would love to go back and do some of the other wilderness routes to the bottom
This is one I've wanted to do for a few years now. Last time I went there we didn't have time to hike down, but I'm gonna go back!
its weird how adding music and some good camera shots makes anything look better than it is. I live 20 mins from here. Been there so many times that the wow factor is gone.
We just drive down to the bottom and walk the shore fishing and yes there is a road that goes to the river.
It’s easy to look past what you grew up around and think it is boring… but I feel like I’m finally fully appreciating the Western Slope and I’m 25 ❤😂
That sure was primitive. Thanks for sharing!
That was Poison Ivy at about 4:30 you brushed up against.
I did this solo in October. Really wish they’d post a few markers as I also got off trail a few times.
Challenging but rewarding hike! From what the ranger told us while we were getting our permit, this is a primitive hike. The intent is to limit the amount of hikers to allow everyone the time to be alone in nature and to rely on your trail finding skills rather than following markers. Although we endured some extra exhaustion after getting off trail, it is all part of the experience on this particular trail. Happy hiking and thanks for watching!
Excellent video! We're going tomorrow so thank you for the preview and review!
It was one of our more unique hikes. We will always remember this one.
My buddy and I did this in June 2020 to do some fly fishing, but we camped next to the river for 3 nights. Great hike, but 70 pound bags made it quite difficult both down and up. We're planning another tip this year, but probably doing the north rim this time. The rangers said there was a lot more river access. Great video!
Thats awesome! I cannot imagine hauling a 70 pound bag up this canyon. I wish we would have camped and I have heard the fishing is unreal. Thanks for watching!
Coming up was extremely difficult, but going down was dangerous! The fishing is absolutely amazing! Well worth it!
HEAVENLY 😇🙏❤️🌅
I’ve been down all the trails . Tomichi is the hardest .
Gunnison point is the easiest ….. js
@@michaelmccullough7309this really didn’t seem that bad
Can you tell me more how the permits work?
This is all from memory but I know you must obtain a permit at the south rim visitor center the day before the hike. I think they start registration at 3:30. 15 permits are given per day. They say everyone in your party must be present but there was someone who got permits for their party of 4 since there was only about 8 of us there.
What is the name of this trail?
0:55
Do you need a permit for the Oak Flat Trail?
I think only the back country hikes require permits.
No permit is necessary for Oak Flat Trail 👍
Awesome video guys!!!
Thank you! This was a fun and unique hike.
Great Video! off to check out some more!
Awesome, thank you!
watched it again!!!!!!!
I would advise hiking boots, mid high with heavy tread, and stiff uppers. That helps engage all your leg muscles, instead of just feet, ankles and calves.
Wow! Thank you for sharing! I didn't know there is a trail to the bottom. Very excited to find it thanks to you two!
Get rid of that camera when your using the chain ,use both hands ,if you slip and hurt yourself ,others have to risk there lives to get you out ,
The view from the bottom is always so cool in another way. That's one of the things that has me going back to Zion in Utah. It takes that feeling of being tiny that you usually get at a giant canyon and enhances it.
I live here and would prefer that you influencers take your phoniness elsewhere.
Whats phony about this video?
Nice hiking shoes ya knobs.
Knobs?
Nice. Music not needed
Thank you for the comment. We have thought about making a vlog without music.
@@SOSASATSUNRISEI liked the music personally
