  • This is the full length trip report with natural sounds and on-trail commentary from a trip that I took to Yellowstone National Park in August 2023. I hiked a route that included Gallatin River, Fawn Pass, Gardner River, Electric Pass, Sportsman Cabin, High Lake, Crescent Lake, Shelf Lake, Sky Rim, Daly Cabin and more.
    Starting from Bighorn Pass Trailhead the route totaled around 60 miles. My campsites were WB1, 1G4, WD1, WE5 & WF1.

      The park punished you for your littering ways by sending mice to torment you. Circle of life.

    Your style of filming videos is so close to myownfrontier. Love the points of interest, fun facts and map Breakdowns at the end of each night. And the fact that you do it consistently. Now that Joey’s off TH-cam you’ve moved into my #1 spot for backpackers on TH-cam. Keep it up!

      Thanks for sharing what you love 32. Myownfrontier was a huge inspiration for my channel. The consistency is one of the things I am proud of - except for a short planned break I have posted at least 1 backpacking trip report video per month for nearly 5 years now. More to come!

    Great video. I have never been to that (very large) corner of the Park, so it was enjoyable to see it vicariously through your eyes. RIP to the Visor.

      @LayneComfort  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Daniel, like I said this was my first visit to that corner as well. I guess there isn’t much reason to go up that way unless you’re specifically heading to see the Gallatin area! RIP Neuse Visor 🙏

    ❤Thanks for taking us along. So this last year you've replaced visor, & shirt; upgraded [lol] gaiters] and now new hikers 😊 I suspect this is just a few gear parts.

    Hey, Layne! Finally got time to sit down and watch this one. As usual, another great trip report. Additionally, I really appreciate your response to @RhodySeth about through hiking. I had wondered the same thing and your answer was on point. Besides, the through hikers I've met smelled funny. 😂

      Hey PopPop, glad you got the time to watch! I certainly can’t throw any stones about smelling funny in this glass house that I reside in while hiking😅

    Another fantastic trip. Footprints a' plenty. You ever think about thru-hiking? Probably too many people to encounter, ammirite?

    • @LayneComfort
      @LayneComfort  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I have lots of buddies who thru hike, incredible achievements, not my cup of tea at all. The most politically correct way I can explain it is like this: Do you know how long the average CDT thru-hiker spends in Yellowstone? 2 days. I spent 6 weeks. Do you know how long the average CDT thru-hiker spends in Glacier? 3 days. I spent a month. I enjoy wilderness immersion, building routes, and not seeing people.

    Sorry about your visor! That thing's been with you a long time! Nothing better than a broken in hat.
    Can I mail you a new one? I'll be going to the Neuse sports shop in a couple of weeks!

      @LayneComfort  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you Haley, that is a very nice offer! I appreciate it. Fortunately I was at Neuses not too long ago and was able to get a new one. So I'll have a couple videos come out with a different visor but then it'll be back to business
