I Hiked 50km For One Shot in the Canadian Wilderness Landscape Photography

Ойын-сауық

Brent tells lies. Lies that end up with us hiking 50km in the Canadian backcountry for some wilderness camping and some truly epic landscape photography.
What is he doing in his tent under the gaze of that headlamp? Are 17 bars of chocolate enough for a 50km hike? Will Amanda figure out how to turn off the Jetboil and will I find the perfect composition in time for sunrise?
''There'll be no bugs'', said Brent. That was a lie too.
On the plus side, I'll share with you my gear list for backcountry camping photography trips and take you on the hike of a lifetime. The Tonquin Valley is truly a site behold.

    Gavin. I love you. You seem to be a uniquely lovable, but most definitely, a seruos man. At one level, your're a first-rank gooball. I just watched Heaton, and then Adam. To be sure, they are both consistently brilliant. None of them, however, or any of others of yoir ability deliver a ... that I-need-to-watch--Gavin's episode feeling. You entertain. (Duh!). You manage a "show" so very much worth watching, just because you do it so very, very well. Most importantly, for SURE - what you deliver for us here weekly is wonderfully pertinent. Really? It's just wonderful. .... and at the end of any of them? Gavin, you teach. You have a gift. Fun and goofy, but never without serious, teachable substance. Props. Major ones to you, and those you love. They all brighten the lives of your fans. You brighten mine.

Amanda and Brent are great to have in your videos...Amanda for your humorous interactions (plus she's great to look at and watch) and Brent for the humor but mostly for his photographic expertise as well. I truly enjoy going to your area of the world, and thoroughly enjoy the videos taken on Vancouver Island or on the mainland side relatively near Vancouver, as well as in Yoho - Banff - Jasper National Parks. Keep up the great work.

    Hey Gavin: Always look forward to your videos. you guys make me laugh! A little advise on your camping gear. Your sleeping bag and tent is way to big for backpacking. Get a down bad that is lighter and compresses down to half the size of the one shown. get a 2 person tent with 2 - vestibules. lighter and much smaller than you have shown. Also your platypus water filter in my opinion takes up to much space and is time consuming in the backcountry. can't think of one I use, but research the filter that attaches to your 1 litter water bottle. Just fill water bottle with any water source and drink. No waiting and much less to carry. With all the camera gear you have to bring, it's important to carry less weight in your pack.
