Thank you for this video, I’m from British Columbia Canada and our province too had a devastating floods and landslides back in nov 2021 losing homes, businesses and farms which also ended up closing off our one and only major highway to the rest of Canada as well people losing their lives. I feel for your family’s community and those around. Your videos are beautiful and promotes how we can respect and love being within nature. Since so many people are now heading outside more than ever they can turn to videos like this which brings awareness and knowledge on the wilderness ❤️.
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9 NIV Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame” “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” Luke 19:10 God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved, and have life in Jesus Christ 💗 Jesus genuinely loves you, and always waits for you to come to Him 🕊💕 May God bless you all ❤
catching up on some of your old videos I hadnt seen. Loved this one. Montana is so gorgeous, we were there the year before all the flooding and were just in awe the entire time. Nick has fantastic camera skills but he should totally be in more videos with you. He added great presense to this one and matches your style perfectly, what a great couple you make. Wishing yall safe travels!
Fantastic video. The way you articulate your sentiments towards nature. Taking the words right out of my mouth. Stunning. Nature truly is therapy. 😅😅😅🥰
Amanda,, love this video young lady, I live in montana for 32 and one half years now. Moved here from New York City. In 1990, I'm to old to go hiking ( knees won't take it anymore )but plenty of camping , fishing , hunting, . etc,,,, funny though I was never in montana before I moved here and all I knew about montana was Custer was killed somewhere in montana.. Came in a uhaul truck with a wife and 3 kids, ( talk about an adventure well try that one day )it's about 2100 miles from where I lived in NY.never been here with 3 kids and a wife . looking back I don't know how I had the nerve to do that back then..,, I cleaned that up pretty good. Now I'm here longer than most people I know are alive !!!! That's why I think I love all your video's so much. PS I live about 50 miles from Red Lodge, so I see the floods first hand... I hope you read this THANK you Frank from montana......
Wow, I can't believe you moved your whole family out to Montana without visiting it first! I'm sure that must have been quite the adventure. Sometimes you just need to take the leap. When I moved to Utah, I didn't really plan to move here, I was just moving "somewhere" and Utah is where I landed. I have an aunt who lives here, so that's the only reason even heard of Salt Lake. Thank you for sharing Frank!
enjoy,really enjoy seeing both Nick and you in the videos. Hats off to Nick for the videos and the both of you for your efforts and talents to share them with us.
@@amanda.outside I understand. Tell him he is great and not to worry about the camera. You two have some good stuff your sharing with the rest of us. Love what your doing.
I love the honey mustard pretzel pieces too! My favorite granola bars right now are Taos Bakes. They have a coconut one that is healthy and really good.
I wish I would have watched this before our Canadian Rockies trip in June. They were 4-6 weeks behind on the snow melt. Lots of the long and higher elevation hikes were closed due to high snow/avalanches. 1. I need hiking poles, my knees ache and lock up on steep descents. I’m not familiar with all of the hiking pole tips do or are but having the discs would have been so helpful once we hit the higher elevation with the snow. 2. Good advice on putting on the jacket to keep warm as soon as you stop. This happened after a long break during the hikes. Sweaty clothes and sitting, it gets cold really quick. 3. My husband and I found 88 Acres bars were great. Had an array and these were our fav, really liked all of their options. Tasted really good instead of cardboard or some weird textures some bars have. These were plain delicious.
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us. . I want to go hike there. Which part of Montana did you hike? What trails would you recommend for older (65 year old) hikers? Fave bars- Aldi honey crunch oat bars. Also like cliff bars, especially the white chocolate macadamia nut one
... I genuinely enjoy your trail videos .. Totally agree ,, nothing more mind clearing and stimulating than time on a forested trail ... Lol,, got a laugh at Nicks trail snacks ,, I used to do that with new hikers too ,,, I would carry a box of Milk Duds and Chocolate Raisins hoping to cross a pile of Deer ,,Elk or Moose droppings ,,and pull a switch and show "Nature Nuggets" .. trail bites ...
I(Kelley) love the Barbells cookies and Cream, It looked so peaceful. Cinnamon pita chips are my treat when hiking. They are so not good for you but taste so good.
Love the tip about putting on your jacket when you stop for a snack to stay warm. I absolutely love the Clif Builder bars, especially the mint chocolate (think better thin mints) and cookies and cream. The vanilla almond and peanut butter ones are delicious, too!
That was a sweet hike, and those are the best ones. Stay safe. Seeing what happened at Yellowstone makes me more appreciate the beautiful frail nature that many take advantage.
So beautiful, much like Alaska (home state!). I love the feeling of being tired too! For trail bars honestly the trail seed and fruit bar recipe you have is a family favorite in my house now! Prayers for the people of Montana 💚 Thank you for these videos that inspire me to hike like this someday!
I have lived everywhere it feels like. But now, I have lived in Montana since 2006 and will say it is the most beautiful place to live. Most of our scenery is breathtaking ❤ The summers are short, but AWESOME. The floods last year were so sad tho. But, I'm looking forward to this summer already!! Going to be tent camping on my own, so that right there will be an adventure! LOL! Thank you for this sweet video!
Great video! I just got Covid so I'm binge watching you today ;) I got back from Crater Lake a few weeks ago. I made your trail bars for the trip. Yum! My other go-to bars are Nugo and Rx.
What a beautiful video Amanda! So incredibly devastating to see what happened due to the flooding. My favorite energy bars are No Cow as well as This Saves Lives :)
This hike is gorgous. How many miles did you hike on this day? Wht did you carry in your pack and what type of meal if any did you cook/eat? Have a good day and be safe.
I like elevated oats, Bolt pro bars (gummies) ,Power Crunch Bars, and natures Own fig bars. They all taste great and push me through the energy depravation point. To each there own.
Hi Amanda. Nice video, love your style and enthusiasm. Just a question in my continuing effort to learn: Why would you ever take the little baskets off your trekking poles?
.. Used to carry Cliff Bars mostly , until I started making my own trail bars ,, similar to yours ... As a commercial type , I like " Greenbelly's , Meal 2 Go" .. come 2 thick bars that I separate and still break into halves ,, Different flavors and filling ..
I love the This Bar Saves Lives. My fave is the peanut butter and chocolate, then the coconut. The others aren't bad, just not as good as those two for me.
I agree about the snack bars. Sometimes I just can't eat them. Our favorite snack to take on a day hike is either homemade muffins, or tortilla rollups with ham, cream cheese and spinach. Also like cheese sticks and salty pretzels or crackers. Hubby loves peanut M&Ms.
Peanut M&M's are one of my favorites. I love the idea of homemade muffins! I've started packing sandwiches too. It's really nice to have an actual lunch instead of energy bars.
Thank you for taking us along for the hike! Montana is a beautiful state. I heard about the flooding; glad your dad's house was okay. I hope your training went well too. As for snacks, I usually pack a Larabar. They have simple ingredients that are okay for my weird food allergies. Sometimes I make banana oatmeal cookies or peanut butter balls.
Larabars are a staple for me. They're the main bar I ate on my Grand Canyon hike when all my other snacks did not seem appetizing. The peanut butter cookie and lemon are my favorites right now!
@@amanda.outside Peanut Butter Cookie is my favorite, but I've had a hard time finding them lately. Cashew Cookie isn't a bad substitute. Carrot Cake is pretty good too.
.. Anytime I'm going on a hike where snow is possible ,(I get i mental picture) and I grab my snowshoe poles ,, I have a bad habit of not knowing where I put the various baskets for the trekking poles ..
Target’s Good & Gather apple pie date and nut bars are quite tasty and satisfying. Six ingredients: dates, almonds, apples, walnuts, raisins, and cinnamon. Protein 3 g, carbs 26 g and 8 g fat.
What a cool hike! I was so sad to see all of the flooding in Yellowstone. My favorite bars are Larabars (pineapple and peanut butter chocolate chip are my favs) and Luna bars. I also like Kind bars-- the target brands for the Kind bars and Larabars are OK too! A big thing for bars for me is that they're easy to chew.. This might be weird but RX Bars are sooo chewy that sometimes the last thing I want to do is chew super hard when I'm already gassed from a hike, lol. Also can't beat the original nature Valley bars!
I LOVE Epic’s maple glazed smoked salmon strips and bites. Definitely better than beef sticks and something different. I also love the GFB (the Gluten Free Bars) (yes that’s the name of the brand). They don’t taste gluten free. They are so delicious and don’t taste dry or chalky like many protein bars!! They also have bites which is nice when you want a couple bites and not a whole bar.
Where was this Montana hike? We are looking for some hikes like this. Normally go to colorado want something like colorado but want to try Montana. Looks awesome. How are the crowds?
I always hated bars like Cliff bars. A while ago I found Chimpansee bars and the sea salt Chocolat one is so good! First bar ever that I like 😅 Don't know if they are available in the States but I would be happy to send you a box with each flavour if you want to. May I ask which snack - bags you are using?
Yea I get sick of Cliff bars real fast. I'll look for the Chimpanzee bars and see if I can find them here! The bags I was using are from the brand Bumkins. I have a bunch of them that I use for snacks and other things like charging cords and toiletries.

Gorgeous video! I'll be heading to Montana at the end of July and hope to see glorious views.
The Montana views are epic! I hope you have the best trip!
Glad you kids got in and out before the big wet hit... I suppose the 'good news' is that NEXT YEAR the fishing should be awesome up here..
Beautiful! Amazing video, as always. I need to figure out when I can revisit Yellowstone (not in the summer). Loved the music too!
