    Really proud of this Vlog. It's rare when I say I'm "Proud" of a Vlog, but this one really gives you a glimpse as close as I can into my actual life, and how we interact and enjoy life. Hope you guys enjoy it!

    did you like Mt. Evan's or Pike's Peak better? I'm trying to decide which 14er to do. We are staying in Colorado Springs but will drive.

    • @Martin_Moore
      @Martin_Moore  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +FitnLovinit if I had to choose Mt. Evans because the drive was so fun stopping every little bit to check out the scenery and you obviously have unlimited time at the summit where as Pikes Peak your stuck in the train which is cool, but then you only have 30min at the summit. Both will blow your mind!

    Did you feel any negative effects from the altitude? (headache, nausea, breathing problems, etc)

    • @Martin_Moore
      @Martin_Moore  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Not on this trip but we did when we drove to the top of Mt. Evans! If you go through my channel you can find the Vlog it’s a couple before this one! We stopped at like 9,000ft and I walked around for like 30 seconds and got so winded I had to sit down. Lol. Once we got to the top I was fine but the altitude did affect me driving up Mt. Evans!

      @joelouden6592 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Martin_Moore interesting how 14,000 feet didn't bother you but 9,000 feet did. We camped at 13,000 feet once and I tossed and turned all night with shallow sleep and projectile vomited the next morning.

    • @Martin_Moore
      @Martin_Moore  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I thought for sure once we reached the summit I’d be a wreck but I was totally fine. Lol. I have no clue why or why not altitude affects people. Ha. How did you camp that high up?? That must have been rough!

    • @joelouden6592
      @joelouden6592 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Martin_Moore We were hiking over Lamarck Col pass in the Sierra Nevadas and we lost part of the trail during the bolder-hopping. We were rapidly losing daylight so we made camp on a ledge until morning. We were only acclimated to 8000 to 9000 feet all week with the exception of the occasional 10,000-12,000 foot passes, so it was not a good idea. But we had little choice by then. An hour or two at that height isn't dangerous but 12+ hours without acclimating could cause cerebral edema, pulmonary edema, etc.

    • @Martin_Moore
      @Martin_Moore  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Semsem Eini on the Cog Railway excursion we were fine. When we drove to the top of Mt. Evans we got out around 10,000ft. for a break, I ran around for about 30 seconds and was winded. You should be fine so long as you aren't forcing yourself to breath heavily, worst case scenario you just have to sit down for a min.

      +ebob1967 not awkward at all. If you're in Denver absolutely so it. Literally one of the most incredible experiences I've done in my life. You feel like you're on top of the world. If you can swing both and have a car, driving to the top of Mt. Evans is also unreal. That and the Cog Railway at Pikes Peak will be two amazing experiences on your trip!

    cool vlog man give me a god idea on what to expect. ... I'm going to Denver in two days and I'm planning on going here. Question ... you think they have a problem with flying a drone from up there ?I have my mavic pro and I would love to fly it up there. Your input is very appreciated.

    • @Martin_Moore
      @Martin_Moore  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +dripmode yes!!!! You're gonna love this man! If you can swing it In the same trip drive up Mt. Evans also. Two totally different experiences! I don't think it would be a problem flying the Mavic. You've only got about a 1/2 hr layover with the Cog Railway before they board and you head back down. Driving up Mt. Evans you've got all the time you could want. I also did a Vlog on that. You can watch my whole Denver Vlog playlist.
