    Stoked you made the move Kraig! I think Denver will suit you well. Also love how you said “you’re coming with us” to your pup because we always have to tell Hazel she’s coming with us too😅 Hope to find a chance to meet up this year.

    I love your vlog style, it's spontaneous and does capture real life moments and memories in ways that more structured or formatted videography does. Both have their value. Enjoy Colorado!

    Welcome to Colorado! My wife and I live in the Denver metro area, and have been hiking around CO since we came here in ‘85. We have thoroughly enjoyed your TH-cam channel for about a year now. Now we hope to bump into you on some trail soon. (And a thought for you; you mentioned your goal to climb 14ners. Definitely do that! That said, we have found most CO 14ners to be great hikes, but often swarmed with other hikers. CO 13ners, on the other hand, are generally as-good-or-better hikes (more remote, natural, scenic), and I rarely ever see anyone else on those hikes.). We hope you both enjoy your new home!

    You’re an inspiration to me. Traveling and exploring the outdoors are two passions of mine, and your videos embody the life style I want to, and plan on living. I live in Colorado and have done a good amount of backpacking, there is still so much for me to see though. I’m going to exhaust my ability to explore all of the wonders CO has to offer over the next year. After that I’ll be traveling the world, embracing new cultures, finding my identity, and see all the beauty we’ve been blessed with on a global scale.

    I started off in wedding filmmaking and have followed your journey since 2016. My wife and I (and our golden doodle, Oliver) moved from Louisiana to Colorado Springs in November of 2021. We visited Colorado Springs for our honeymoon in February and we decided to make the move. We absolutely love it in Colorado but it has definitely been an adjustment!
    I’m not even joking when I say this, let’s link up and hike Pikes Peak! My neighbor/friend, who is a full time wedding photographer, just hiked Pikes Peak and loved it.

    Welcome to Denver! We're up in Broomfield; we love the city atmosphere, but also the proximity to just head out in the mountains and get away from it all. Ignore the haters who say "Denver is full," you seem like you have the right personality and are someone who just "fits" here. I hope you get settled smoothly and enjoy it here.

    Hello, some technical questions:
    1.-On peaks with snow, with temperatures between -10 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to use semi-rigid boots and crampons or have also used tennis shoes
    2.-What sleeping bag do you recommend for those temperatures -5 to -17
    3.-As for thermal clothing, do you recommend merino wool, or what do you use to sleep and not be cold?
    Saludos desde México

Keep it coming!

  • @frankd4875
    @frankd4875 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Kraig, congrats on the move to Denver. Once you get settled, and have occasion for a really nice meal, try the Ship Tavern at the Brown Palace Hotel in downtown Denver. I was there 37 years ago for a deposition in a lawsuit I was working on, and it was Thanksgiving weekend, and my wife and I had the best rib roast dinner there I've ever had. If it is still as good as it was then, it's worth trying. Also, check out the Bluebird Cafe in Denver, great spot for breakfast. A quick internet search indicates that both places are still in business. For your hiking enjoyment, check out the Weminuche Wilderness in the San Juan National Forest on the western slope of Colorado. You can access it via the Durango - Silverton narrow gauge train in the summer, and there's a stop roughly halfway to Silverton where the train lets the backpackers off. With maps you can navigate over a couple of high mountains in the wilderness through a saddle and get further into it and eventually come out at a different exit point. It's been many years since I was there (summer of 1975), and unfortunately, coming from Louisiana, I developed altitude sickness and severe headaches once we got above tree line at about 10,000 feet. I just wasn't acclimated to the elevation well enough coming from sea level. We spent two nights in our tent and had to come back down as the headaches persisted. But the area is gorgeous and I'm sure you could map out a great circuit hike there that might be worth doing a video on. Cheers from Lafayette, LA!

    Hope you are ready for the dry air. Moved there in 2012 and stayed there for a few years. I used a humidifier and drank lots of water yet still was coughing up bloody mucus and having terrible sinus issues. Some new arrivals acclimate to the new environment but others don't.

You are heading to Taiwan for the hike?!?! A few years ago my brother and I hiked Yushan (Mount Jade), just enjoyed the whole process so much. Don't forget to apply for the permit, everything can be done online. There are quotas for foreigner vs local. And go to Hualien; the mountain and the sea all close to each other and take a train back up to Taipei. Keep it going Kraig!

    Having just returned from Israel last month and having done the Del Norte Camino last summer. It perked my interest about doing a trail in Israel after seeing some back packers near the Sea of Galilee. I’m just not sure about the safety of doing a trail over there. I definitely wouldn’t hike the Dead Sea area, too hot and dry.
