Sometimes a guy just has to get into the woods,to lose the mind and free the soul. Nice views,Marty. New area I want to hike in. Walk long and walk well,Marty.
Time in the backcountry is never wasted,Marty. Good for the legs,the lungs,the heart and the soul. “Civilization “ takes it’s toll,doesn’t it? Walk long and walk well, Marty.
Amen to that. Sometimes I get home, and within a day I just want to turn around and go right back in the woods. I just quit my job this week, and I plan to make the most of what summer we have remaining.
@@Martyupnorth congratulations on leaving the corporate working world. Life is to be enjoyed,not survived. Far happier working for myself. Thank you for posting this video,Marty. My wife saw my need for trail time and is kicking me out for a 4 day weekend,next weekend. Me and Bond are heading out hiking for 4 days.
Nice Marty! My girlfriend and I were just setting up camp at lake of the falls when you were filming. Was neat to see my black dodge ram in the background!
Pretty cool to see you out on this trail, I was on it myself beginning of July. Missed you by a couple weeks if you were there in June. I see you are still using the Lite AF pack, I have enjoyed mine. Look forward to the video on the rest of the trip.
Thanks for sharing. Which pack does Tikka use? We have a 50 lb lab and use a canine equipment pack. We only make the pack about 7 lbs total. It's not the most stable and likes to get flipped over. What's your experience with dog packs? Thanks 👍
This one is a Jann Sport, but I can't find them online anymore. It was expensive, but worth it. Go to ruffwear.com/?avad=261861_f2a14d101&leadsource=1162043 they have amazing dog gear.
12:08 with the “HI U” rock message is the site I stayed at couple weeks after you; and where the squirrels got into my food on the bear hang lol. Didn’t notice the bear lockers until the next morning…
Marty thanks for allowing us to come with you on this hike, just a side not, how much does your one person tent weight, as all my tents are tipi tents, as i like to stand up in my tent, Sheldon
My Marmot Tungsten UL 1P is just over 2 lbs. I love that tent. I also have a teepee. It's a OneTigris that only weighs 1 lb (if I leave the pole at home). I can put it up by cutting a small tree or running a rope bwteen two trees. I can't stand in it, it's only 5'2" at the centre.
I'm planning a trip mid-august in that area up to white goat wilderness for 7 nights, sunset pass>pinto lake>up the cataract trail>valley of the lakes>mcdonald creek> and back out sunset pass. I was thinking of making that loop you planned from rock lake into NBT up to Wilmore, but ill wait for your video as guidance!
Hi Marthy, got a question for you if you don’t mind. Will be doing a Breazau loop next week but heard about the bridge from Breazau lake campground to Jonas cutoff being washed out. I was thinking of hiking back to the bridge by Breazau river and bushwalking the other side and trying to connect with the trail. What’s your opinion if you could share please. It looks like only 3-4 km but it might be challenging. Thank you for your input.
I think it's going to be more than a challenge. There's a creek that you'll have to ford, that won't be easy. You also won't be able to follow the river because it's a canyon in that area, with steep walls. Quite simply, there's a reason why the trail crosses the north fork of the Brazeau twice. Trails usually follow paths established by animals. If there's no trail, there's a reason why? You best bet is to try and ford the river where the bridge is installed. If you can't do it, just back track. That's my opinion.

Nice views,Marty. New area I want to hike in.
Walk long and walk well,Marty.

Tika is such a trooper!
That transition from the painting back to the video blew my mind. Well done friend. Truly inspiring, Whimpi.. Indonesia.

Hi Marty! Distance to the first random camp you showed in this video? Trying to find a suitable back country into for my 7yo niece! Thanks!
This is a beautiful trail to hike Marty. Looks like you and your adorable little friend had a great time outdoors ;)
Great too see you and Tika out on the trail again Marty , stay safe this Summer .
Thanks, you too!
Gorgeous hiking trail, opening shots are lovely 😊😊 Nicely done bud.
Thanks for sharing Marty.

Small world.

Thanks. Need to check this area out. Looking forward for part 2.
You should! It's a great early season area. I go there in the winter a lot. Easy terrain, lots of firewood.
Any dirt time is a good time!

That same squirrel got my M&Ms.
Darn camp robbers!

@@Martyupnorth Check out liteoutdoors in Lethbridge, they do sell a carbon fibre pole, that should knock half the weight of the aluminum pole

Can't buy that wilmore east map you posted about a month ago. Seems sold out or something
👍👍
where is the trailhead to entry creek & how many km. to entry creek? thanks marty.
Trailhead is at the Cline River parking lot on highway 11, about 40 km west of Nordegg. The hike in is only 6-7 km.,
@@Martyupnorth thank you very much
long time no see Teeka!
She's getting old. She turned 9 this summer, which if you stop to think about it is old age for a dog. I try not to push her too hard.
