That is stunning! Your books are such a blessing!! I love all the photos and the passages that go with each one! Wild Light is a gorgeous book! I am rereading Whispers in the Wilderness now, on p. 40. That photo of the clouds is utterly gorgeous. They are all treasures that I will always keep, God willing. They are so good, I have gifted them as well. You are just like an angel, a messenger of God's love displayed in the beauty of His creation.
That moment at about 5:18, when the sunlight is casting a shadow....I felt my shoulders actually drop, and release a little tension. ♥ Thanks for sharing this journey. I love your work, and this was a fun way to see what goes into the making of them!
Such a wonderful video! Always a treat to watch your adventures Erik. I also greatly appreciate that you are wearing a helmet as you traverse through the rocks, especially being alone. You’re setting such a great example for us all.
@@ErikStenslandthank you, that means a lot coming from you. Some day I’ll get into good enough shape to attempt some of these peaks. You’re making it look easy!
I'm glad it gives you a glimpse into what goes into these photos. As I was hiking out of the park late last night I was realizing that most of my summer photos involve 6-12 hours of hiking. They certainly take a lot of time and effort. Thanks for recognizing that! :)
I think I was just so tired after having run up the mountain with a 40lb pack that I wasn't thinking straight that morning. I'm sure the decreased 02 didn't help. Oh well. :)
Eric, great video. One of your best
Wow, thanks!
Acclimation to these hugh altitudes is crucial, too. Love these trips... more, please!
That's very true!

Wow, that's great to hear. I'm always happy to bring a bit of the peacefulness of the wild into people's lives.

Thanks Bryce. I appreciate your encouragement.
Erik! Wow! I’m so thankful for warriors like you that can take us along to experience breathtaking mornings like this in that paradise of nature!
I often think of your adventure on Longs when I'm out on days like this Sandy.
I'm glad you let us tag along to this beautiful area of RMNP. The photos and scenery were spectacular.
Thanks Billy! Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for taking me somewhere I'll never go! It was breathtaking! Your hiking ability is truly amazing!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
I find myself holding my breath as you walk through that talus, but what amazing views!
I think that the camera makes it look more dangerous than it is. I'm actually quite cautious while out in the mountains.
I have enjoyed your videos and photos. You haven't taken me places I can never go. Thank you
You are most welcome Sandy!
Lovely video Erik! Thanks for taking us for the ride. It's truly beautiful 😍
So happy you enjoyed it!
Thank you for taking us along. It was a lovely trip! Looking forward to coming to the park very soon.
Glad you enjoyed it
Oh, so beautiful! Love seeing these kinds of videos of your adventures in RMNP!!
I've been doing a lot of these, including early this morning. You'll have to join me on one of them Scott!
Such beauty Erik, I loved those stars! Thank you for taking us with you, looking forward to what you share next!
My pleasure! More to come.
Beautiful, long tuff day but well worth it. Thanks for sharing
Yes it was! :)
That image at 6:14 is incredible! Thank you for taking us along.
Thanks. I’ve enjoyed seeing a couple of your videos.
@@ErikStenslandthank you, that means a lot coming from you. Some day I’ll get into good enough shape to attempt some of these peaks. You’re making it look easy!
Another fantastic video. Except for missing the clear, clean cold air and the stinging cold fingers I felt like I was there. Well done.
Sorry I couldn't share the cold air with you. :)
Thank you for sharing! I miss RMNP
You are welcome.
Wow! 😍 This was beautiful and inspiring! Thanks for making the journey and sharing with us. 😊
You are so welcome! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it!
Wow! Thank you for taking us along!
My pleasure David!
Great video! Really appreciate your sharing it. Am much more appreciative of the effort involved in taking your wonderful photos.

Another fantastic video! So glad to be able to join you on a hike that we could not do ourselves.
Sherry, looks like you are binge watching. So glad that you are enjoying the videos!
Beautiful Erik!! Love all your videos. Thanks for taking us along. 😄
Glad you like them!
Spectacular hike and images Erik! That distance/vertical would be a 3 day backpack for me 😃.
Ha! I doubt that Paul.
Excellent video! Really enjoyed seeing this part of the park. You got some great shots!
Thanks a lot Jeffrey! I appreciate it. It’s definitely a rugged and beautiful part of Rocky.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
I visited your store last weekend but you were out. I really like the store, there are great photos. Hope to see you next time I visit Estes Park.
Hopefully next time!
Really great video, Erik! Thanks for sharing with us … it really take me back home. All the best -
Nat! Great to see you here! Thanks for the comment. Hope all is well on the other side of the pond!
@@ErikStensland all good, thanks! Take care and hope our paths will cross again very soon.
Love these videos so much!
So glad!
There was a swallow up there😲
Certainly. You would be surprised at the more common birds you can find at high elevation.
You can blame mixing up the mountain names on a- why are all of those dang mountains named after clouds and b- no oxygen up there. Great video!
