    WoW ! Awesome hike and so much rewarding getting up there . I can understand you going crazy as soon as there’s a spot with nobody around ...it was very cool seeing you alone there and the slow motion was nice and funny 😆 You are lucky to be in shape like this Hélène my wife has a sore knee and cannot hike much more than 1 or 2 km ...😢 so sometimes she let me go alone and wait .
    The red flowers at 2:04 we have the same in our backyard we call them in French " Coque lourde " probably not the real name but we have a lot of them they grow very easy and spreads everywhere.
    Nice day hike so beautiful up there !

    IB would have loved to have gone on this hike. He enjoys hiking but he pounds up them too quickly for me. He does it for the physical challenge, but I do it for the views and experience, so I want to take it slower and savour it. We're not compatible hikers.

      @@unowhotravelchannel A walk is never a waist of time. What I meant by that was the fact that you have mist the sun rise , the drama in the skies , the colors of the sky which is out of this world. I was in New Zealand for a month and I mist that walk due to a knew injury doing Tongariro Alpine Crossing but next time I am in NZ I will do Roy's Peak but I will start my walk at 3;30 AM so when I am on top the sun would just rise. That is a view to watch and photograph.
