Can’t wait… Chicago Basin will be #9-12 in a month!
Thank you for these excellent videos! Informative, fun, no BS.
You make the 14ers way more accessible to thousands of us… and safer.

[@TheVirtualsherpa]

Thanks so much, really glad to hear they have been helpful for you. Enjoy the basin, its amazing!

[@denvergriffin5555]

You have a great eye for choosing feasible lines when the going gets inobvious and do a great job of conveying it. Extremely useful skill for the less traveled peaks.

[@LifeAtHighAltitude]

Just booked my Train reservation for this August 🤘🤘

[@caseyhunt]

which one takes you to the trail head?

[@LifeAtHighAltitude]

@@caseyhunt I called them to make that reservation, they'll make sure you get the right train

[@Theninjaonthemountains]

can't wait to tackle this one hopefully train is running

[@Alll979]

Watching all your videos from Spain. Congrats for your channel, its gold for me could watch these peaks. Thanks!!

[@georgesheffield1580]

In your climbing ,hiking travels try the Mountains around Monteray ,Mexico . You will be amazed ,especially those surrounded by the city . Big walls , harry ridges , possible snow , high elevation differences and a fabulous city and country side

[@georgesheffield1580]

To the north are the quartsites/grenadiers . Al kinds of mountains to go for .

[@jameshoffman552]

At the end of each mountaineering adventure, the Virtual Sherpa gives the route a 'Dog Score' (reference to Doug Muro).

[@milehighac2738]

I think I will plan this trip for September 2019.

[@TheVirtualsherpa]

Awesome spot if you are willing to add those extra miles!

[@milehighac2738]

Hopefully the train will be running again by that time. Thanks!

[@goatbacon2977]

How did it go

[@cgeorgo416]

I was able to do windom as a sunrise peak with my backpacking group and then we proceeded back to the trailhead, starting the day 2:30am and ending the day at 10:00pm.

[@HighSpeedNoDrag]

Thanks Bro and I have 51 more to Go.

[@TheVirtualsherpa]

HighSpeedNoDrag nice man good luck 👍🏽

[@wmbiisurgeon9087]

Thanks a lot for this! Going in 15 days!

[@dannydelorean5807]

Did you end up going? I'm going at the end of the month and wondering if it is possible to hit Sunlight, Eolus, and Windom all in two nights.

[@wmbiisurgeon9087]

@@dannydelorean5807 Yes, you could do Sunlight and Windom in one day and Eolus early the next day early and possibly come out that evening fast enough to catch the train.

[@dannydelorean5807]

@@wmbiisurgeon9087 good to know! Thank you!

[@Gowalkabout]

Cool hike!

[@mikekraut7643]

I don’t get why that big crack makes it a class 4, it looks less exposed and better rock than the chutes on Quandry west ridge

[@TheVirtualsherpa]

TBH - High class 3 and low 4 are all relative to me.

[@HikingEngineer]

can you camp at twin lakes? everything I see says to camp at Chicago Basin but I'd rather get that extra mile and climb out of the way the first afternoon, and camp at Twin Lakes

[@TheVirtualsherpa]

I suppose you could, not sure the quality of camp spots but if you aren't picky, I don't see why not. Just be sure to follow wilderness guidelines for camping around water.

[@georgesheffield1580]

What about sunlite spire next door ?

[@darrell9546]

"Ee-oh-lus".

[@georgesheffield1580]

This bunch iis not " car to pk to car " in a day

[@garethleitner9547]

I disagree. The only class 4 move isn't until the final push to friction climb the last "leap of faith". Everything up to that point is a piece of cake.

[@georgesheffield1580]

Agree ,but weather ,experience, and other factors make one person's 3rd class another's 5.10x
