    Enjoyed your video! Made it all the way up and down this week first time. Will take poles next time and a Camelback for water (took bottles in a backpack). Glad I had my Re-Lyte electrolyte mix. That was a game changer / saver.

    Hi Erika. Good time with your crew. Haven’t done Mt Wilson yet , did Mt Baldy today but didn’t make it to the top. 8000 ft elevation was my limit. Took off at 830am that’s late. Next week I’ll try again

    • @EJAdventures
      @EJAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wow that’s still amazing to conquer part of Baldy! We’ll be doing that one sometime soon and I cannot wait. Keep crushing it 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    I made it to the "bench" a few weeks ago, and then turned back. Will try again, soon.

      @@EJAdventures Thanks. It was my first time and I was just only planning to get to Orchard Camp. Got there and thought what the heck. Keep going. Let's go to "the bench". It was a tough hike. The inclines are not severe, but just non-stop. I was starting to feel the altitude effect. At the bench the sign said 1.3 miles to the top. Forget that, I'll be back.

      @@trexinvert yeah sounds like you did the right thing by listening to your body! You pushed yourself but not too much and that’s the way to do it. Great training for when you finish the whole thing next time 😊

      @@EJAdventures Went up again, today. Been waiting weeks for temp to drop, but it's consistently been in 100's july/aug. Fk it. Just get comfortable hot/sticky. Brought plenty of water and left bottles at First Water & Orchard Camp on way up. Reached the "bench" (5.5 mi.) in 2hrs and 10 minutes. Took nice long break/stretched and returned in 1 hr and 40 minutes coming down with a little speed walk/jog. Easier 2nd time, despite heat, because mentally I knew exactly where i was and comfortable. Just power walked all the "steep ups". There's actually a few flats and downs on the way up the trail. The longest uphill stretch is maybe 10 minutes at most, and I just hung on. No altitude excuse today.

    I’ve never used poles but it looks like it’s safer. Do you feel that it gets in the way?

    • @EJAdventures
      @EJAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It only gets in the way when I’m trying to film at the same time 😂😂😂 lol for the most part they are EXTREMELY helpful. It does get a bit tricky when you need to use your hands to grip rocks / pull yourself up on certain hikes, but they are lightweight so it’s easy to tuck them under your arm in that case!

    How long is the full day to do this?

    • @EJAdventures
      @EJAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Totally depends on fitness level and how many breaks you take but between 6 - 8 hours would be average I’d say!

    I didn’t see Mt Wilson in 2021 Six Pack list... or am I wrong?

    • @EJAdventures
      @EJAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We made our own list I didn’t realize there was a different list every year. This was the first out of our six training hikes our group came up with and we used six pack of peak articles as a guide
