Hallett Peak stands at 12,713ft above sea level and to reach it, it took 10.7 miles and 3,143ft of elevation gain. This was the longest hike we have done since starting our national park road trip. We saw a Dusky Grouse and Yellow-Bellied Marmots.

We visited Rocky Mountain National Park in July 2019. Right now we are sheltering in place and using this as a time to catch up on video editing. That said, we hope these adventures can provide some much needed distraction and entertainment in such an uncertain time. Stay safe!
Awesome! Keep it up!
@Rock the Park, you guys have a great show! I have been catching up with older seasons on CuriosityStream :)
Your videos are a sight for sore eyes while we spend our time here in the Bay Area cooped up inside! Amazing to see the beautiful scenery in this national park, keep the videos coming and stay safe!
Thank you @Daan van Esch! :)
Thanks for sharing a beautifull video. I enjoyed watching and listening.
I am planning to hike Hallett Peak this year in July ⛰⛰🙂
Very interesting about the branches growing on one side. Couldn't agree more about the importance of starting early at the more popular national parks. Makes it much more enjoyable.
That's why we always go to the visitor centers - to learn new things like about the tree branches in this case.
I wish I had my youth back, as well as my health. I would love to climb that mountain and see the beautiful vistas that you were able to see from up there. Once again, great video as always. Stay safe and Happy Trails!
Thank you Wesley Place!
@@AdventurousWay You are very welcome.
Excellent channel!
Thank you very much!
What a gorgeous place! Thanks for sharing your experience
Thanks for watching Snooch tv! :)
@@AdventurousWay your welcome. We really enjoy making these types of videos as well
Fantastic! What a great day.
It was! A hard hike was rewarded with great views!
Your videos are awesome! Your detail of the hikes is very helpful for my wife and I in selecting possible destinations. Thank you for taking the time for your great videos!
I'm glad you find that information useful!
I love the educational parts as well as the beautiful scenery and your humor injected. Yours is my new favorite TH-cam channel. So I glad I found it.
Thank you for the kind words! It puts a smile on our faces :)
BTW, I was introduced to y'all after seeing your interview with Mike on RVLifestyles. I am going through your playlists. Loving it. I am in Texas. When we get out of quarantine, I think I will head to Guadalupe National Park. Safe travels.
@Nancy Baer, Thanks for coming over from Mike's video. :) Depending on when this quarantine ends, summer might be quite hot for Guadalupe Mountains National Park, but fall would be perfect.
@@AdventurousWay oh yeah. True True. Fall it is. If we are even over this by then. Hopefully so
I went up Flattop a couple years back at the end of September. Was already snowing. My friends came up with me to the Emerald Lake overlook. I continued alone and very quickly I was in total white out conditions with crazy high wind. I took some photos and ended up turning back before I lost my way. Hopefully one day I get back to it.
That's smart to turn around before it got too bad!
Stunning views. Thanks for letting us tag along.
Thank you Brian!
..really enjoyed it, Thanks for sharing :)♥️🌹 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching :)
@@AdventurousWay 👍 you are very welcome =:-) 👍
Informative video like always. It's great to have the knowledge while hiking, making the hike much more enjoyable.
Thank you @dragonshivu!
Just wanted you to know that we only started watching you guys a couple weeks ago, and we've caught up already!!!! Obviously, the reason is that we really like your process and you two are great on camera. You have a very similar approach to the travel that we want to employ. I like that you use the rv to go where you want, as opposed to having it be the focus of your channel. Too many channels are about the rving, not the benefits of using it. Keep it up and we'll keep watching.........on a much more scaled down speed of course. Oh and also, we're loving that you are so far ahead of your videos that we don't have to hear about corona. So sick of hearing about that, your vids are a nice break from all that.
Aww, that's so nice to hear that you have caught up with our older videos! Yup, that's exactly right - RV is just the most practical way to get to places we want to go right now. And yes, I'm also sick of hearing about corona, that's why we keep publishing our travel videos. And indeed, we have so much footage to edit that it will be months and months before we run out. Welcome to our channel!
Thanks! Cute little marmots!
They are the cutest!
What an amazing hike!
Hello! I'm fairly new to your channel and am slowly, but surely, making my way through all your videos. Just wanted to send a comment and let you know how much I'm enjoying your journey! Your content is always so informative, lively and upbeat, and a lot of fun to watch! Thank you for sharing your journey in such an inspirational way. Stay safe out there!
Aww, it warms my heart to hear that you are going through all our videos :) We try to make our videos timeless, and I'm glad to see there are people that go through our previous videos. Your comment made my day! Thank you!
How to eat marmot? That's all I got oh! And banner trees! 😉
what is that on your wrist, Matt, that you look at for length of hike and elevation gain? and how do you do the cool aerial of your hike routes?
That's a Garmin Fenix 5s Plus watch amzn.to/38CbxxI (affiliate link) - very useful for hiking and running. We actually each have been wearing one for more than year and a half.
The hike map animations - I (Diana) create them in Google Earth desktop software. I import gpx file that the gps watch recorded. Google Earth has the option to do a "flyover" following a track and recording it into a video file. Then I take that video file and edit it with the rest of the video.
@@AdventurousWay well it seriously adds to the coolness and helpfulness factor of your videos! I look forward to more vids! P.S. please put months and days on when it was filmed so we know. I know RMNP you said was July but I'm not sure you always say? It's nice to have that info in video description. Like early September? Late September? Etc. can mean big difference in temperatures depending on location. Great work you two! And I love the detailed blog posts too :)
Awesome! I'm glad that extra work is worth it :) And I'm glad you like the blog posts too :) Most videos should have the month the video was filmed in the video description - usually at the very bottom of the video description (the early videos don't though). But good point about beginning vs end of month - I will try to include more precise date in descriptions of future videos.
My daughter and I did flattop mountain last week,not Hallets Peak in 5 hours 45 mins
Wow
