    Great assemble of hikes. Awesome video. My backpack is currently screaming to get out there, and I can't wait for the warm season to begin. I do not have definitive plans this year but Cape Scott on Vancouver Island in British Columbia has been on my list for some time. If I had to pick a hike overseas, I would be tempted to do the Santiago de Compostela trail in Spain, probably not the entire length but hike a few days to have a better feel of the area 🇨🇦🥾☯️😎🏔

    So far I did three of them: Laugavegur, Alta Via I and the Salkantay. I understand the appeal of adding Tour du Mont Blanc to such a list, but there are a number of trails in the Alps that are better than the TMB: Haute Route, Tour de Matterhorn, ... One trail I really want to highlight is the Fitzroy Massive in El Chalten which is imho even more beautiful than Torres del Paine. I did my best hike ever over there. Also Africa has some really nice trails. I want to hike the Rwenzori Mountains but given the instable situation in the border region with Congo it won't be for any time soon unfortunately.

    @@AliceFordAdventures I like your answer and it is applicable to some people. But I think it gives an incomplete picture of being a hiker. I've just watched your Dolomites video and it didn't seem to me that you were just "improving your self-confidence". Most avid hikers don't lack self--confidence. Quite the contrary. In fact, you were [rightfully] bragging, in the Dolomites video, about how brave you are. I've always thought about why people climb Everest for example, or free solo the Eiger. It is certainly not just to improve fitness, build up some confidence and maintain mental health. To me it is much more. It is self-fulfillment. Testing what you are made of. Conquering your limits. Or (when I want to give an easy to understand response) challenging myself. It is the same reason that motivates some to train daily to win the Olympics, or to study long nights to discover a cure for cancer... achieving your best self. . Just sharing some thoughts :)

The Areeiro/Ruivo hike area is cool but would be brutal with a full pack haha. IMO I'd pick another location for a big backpacking trip unless you've been a lot of other places already. Not a bad trip but not my favorite.

Done: TMB, 1/2 of Kalalau, Inca trail instead of salkantay, Tugela falls, day hikes on 3 capes and grand canyon, and routeburn instead of milford. Add some of the other high regions of peru to your list like Huayhash trek/Santa Cruz. Also it's spelled Colombia not Columbia - you're gonna make people angry :) Laugavegur is probably next for me and then Patagonia. I want to do dolomites/alta via but already did Italy so kind of want to wait on that.

So I'd definitely take the narrators warnings seriously about wet weather and rain in the area. The family got out but it was a close call.
