That was so much fun, thank you!!! This is the first video I have seen of yours. I loved it. Your narration is so fun and your photography is amazing! What an amazing adventure. I have been planning a trip to that area in the near future and I can't wait to experience it first hand.
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! If you can, make it a backpacking trip, so you can also go over Keasarge Pass. The view on the pass and the other side is amazing, too!
This is the video I’ve been looking for! I’ve read a couple reviews about Bench Lake but hadn’t seen any high quality videos. Thank you :) we’re heading up to Onion Valley for the 4th of July.
Yes they killed all the fish in Matlock Lake due to the yellow leg frog being endangered. The fish fed on the frogs. Too bad that was my favorite place to fish and camp. I had been backpacking there since 1967. All those years l don't recall seeing those frogs even at Bench Lake. Flower and Gilbert still have Trout in them. Maybe Heart lake on the pass still has trout.
Thank you--Al Newby

It has been a long time since I was there. Reminds of the Wallowa mountains NE oregon- Eaglecap wilderness Area
Wow, I've never been there but I can see what you mean. That's going on my to do list. Thanks! :)

Wow, I didn't know that. Thank you for the info!
Can you fly a drone by Gilbert and Flower lakes and hike there without a permit? Thank you!
It's within a Wilderness area, so unfortunately drones are illegal. No permits needed if you're only doing a day hike.
