  • Backpacking along the majestic John Muir Trail from Yosemite Valley to Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite National Park. The adventure began on June 16th, 2018, starting at the northern terminus of the JMT in Happy Isles, and quickly climbed nearly 6,000 feet to my first night at Sunrise Lakes. From Sunrise I made my way into Tuolumne Meadows just before noon, where I enjoyed some Mammoth Brewing Co. beers and a burger - lovely! 26.25 miles in total with 6,976 feet of elevation gain (according to my Gaia app). Rode the "hiker bus" back to Yosemite Valley, full of zen and happiness. I will be back!

    2:40 the way the aspen trees seemed to change color in the time lapse was really cool to see.

    Love your video! I'm pretty certain that's Mt. Clark at 8:50 :)

    Getting ready to this and more in August! Thanks for pumping me up and keeping me inspired while the gyms are shut down.

      Catherine Gregory It’s a great time of year in the Sierras! Too bad about the current fires and air quality.

    Great video. Really enjoy all of your journeys. I live about 2 hours from Yosemite, so when the park is opened again and it's safe, I plan on hiking the Mist to Vernal and Nevada Falls, then back down the JMT. Hikes after that will be all over Tuolumne Meadows, since I've never been there. Really would like to fly fish the Lyell Fork and hike the canyon, as well. Can't wait.
    Where was your water source and did you filter it or boil? Also, what type of food did you bring such as snacks, etc.? Thanks!

    I did the same section of the jmt a month ago. I can’t stop thinking about how beautiful it all was!

    Those metal signs were there in 1972 when I hiked through there in early June, lottsa snow. That ascent is pretty steep and long, hiking up out of the Valley. Cathedral Peak was my first mountain summit oh so long ago. Nice video, brings back memories. Missed your lovely wife, maybe next time.

    You're the reason I am doing Devil's Postpile to Yosemite Valley starting Monday. Thanks for the inspiration and greetings from Germany ;)

    Nice to see you back Sheety. Thought you'd gone off the radar. You must be one really fit dude and appreciate the wonderful scenic moments you capture. Was in Dunbar Scotland a while back and visited John Muir's house, a simple abode in the main street with American flags outside. Thanks again from here in Australia.

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      waltavoc haha thanks for your comment! Would love to visit John Muir’s house - sounds amazing! I think the closest I’ll get to any structure with his name on it will be the John Muir hut along the JMT😉

    Cool! First time I’ve seen one of your videos hiking somewhere I’ve been. Your videos are an inspiration for me to get out there. I just checked and the same day you started in Yosemite valley I was hiking Upper Yosemite Falls.

    Beautiful video! From the reflection it looked like you were hand holding a GoPro?
    I’ll be starting my NOBO JMT late August thru September and using my Sony for stills and maybe 4K.
    Anyway...sub’ed....thanks!

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lance Takata Yes sir, GoPro was used quite a bit! Enjoy your adventure - hoping the fires are out soon.

    Too bad about the stressful music though! Why is that necessary?!

  • @andreaschristodoulou512
    @andreaschristodoulou512 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I thought you were required to stay at little Yosemite valley your first night. Also, the hiker bus says it’s not running in 2018. Did you end up getting a ride back to the valley? I’m going up pretty soon

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Andreas Christodoulou Sunrise Lake pass thru permit. The Yosemite Lodge “hiker bus” is running...may have modified hours during the week.

    Do we need permit to do the backpacking on JMT? How to obtain that?

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Raji Varghese yes, through the Yosemite permit system.

    Ahh take me back to the 1700s when the redskin was there, what a beautiful sight to see man in absolute natural state.

    Sheety, another well done video! Speaking on behalf of humanity, we enjoy your commentary and the sounds of nature. Even your footsteps! Please consider losing the music. Music is so personal-many different styles and tastes. Keep up the good work and see you on the trail.

  • @UVJ_Scott

    Beautiful video... terrible music. The sounds of nature would be better

    • @grega.4556
      @grega.4556 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have to agree.

  • @jasonforester7292
    @jasonforester7292 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Normally I love the videos you put out, but the teal/orange color grade you've put on this video just completely ruins what are usually amazing views. Please don't follow that awful color grading trend.

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jason Forester I agree - tried something different here and prefer normal color / shading adjustments. Thanks for your comment.

  • @dennisley3553

    So, I’m watching your video, listening intently on your narration; you narrate well. Then... the most annoying music, ever... I simply cannot watch anymore.
