I can not even imagine your level of endurance! It is definitely not as easy as you make it look. 😳🙌

Beautiful hike thanks for sharing!

Thanks for taking me along with you! 👍

What an incredible hike! The views 😍 thank you for doing these videos. So informative!! I hope to be able to go soon!

Great job of explaining everything and the videos are great.

I think I found my next hike. Thanks for the info. Love your videos 👍

Dude your channel is so killer, keep it up man. Some of the best hiking content I’ve seen.

Oh man this is awesome!

Great JOB! Nice camera work! Really smooth. Great vibes from you too!

Awesome! I did the South Teton 2 summers ago! I did it in the snow the first time and then again at the end of the season when it was melted mostly. I honestly liked the snow so much more!

Amazing! So helpful

Beautiful hike, Great Job! Hope you have the Grand your list and if you do I can't wait to see that video as well!

Awesome job!

Great hike. I would love to do this one some day.

Really enjoyed this one! The camera work was great and really showed off the beauty of that area! I’ve never been to that area but boy do I want to now. Keep up the great work! Can’t wait for the next one

Great Video! Now I want to run out and do it.

Fantastic views! I’ve only seen this place looking up from Schwabachers Landing; hoping to return for these iconic hikes. Some national parks do allow dogs. An example would be Kennesaw NP in Georgia, albeit they must be on a leash. Yellowstone also with limited travel from the car.

Thanks!

Super sweet, man! I hiked above the Meadows mid August 22’. Beautiful hike. Nice to know both Mountains are accessible without doing anything above a class 3 scramble. I look forward to trying this out some day.

Yeah, they both are really a classic case of looking way more gnarly than they actually are.

@@TheVirtualSherpa That Diorite band up the middle of Middle Teton looks like a staircase from the Meadows. Too bad it isn’t. What an incredible energy those mountains have. Cheers

Great looking hike with spectacular views, always thought the Tetons were more difficult class 4 type climbing, you seemed to do the whole thing with trekking poles in your hand may be within my capabilities. Thanks for the great video.

@@TheVirtualSherpa May have to try it someday just need to be bear aware in that area believe it is grizzly country unlike Colorado where they have more docile black bears.

yes dude!

Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time and energy to set up those shots. I learned a lot from your narrative.

I was in the area trying to climb up some way on Teewinot. I did not carry a bear spray, and was shit scared the entire hike. :D I have encountered a black bear on a hike before, and I was definitely not looking forward to seeing a Grizzly. Better to carry bear spray with you - if for nothing else, than for peace of mind. Also, when hiking alone, play music or something, and shout 'hey bear' once every few mins.

Great video, my brother and I were near the meadows yesterday in garnet canyon. Couldn’t push further yesterday (got stopped by bears on the trail for a little bit and we had a late start due to weather in the morning). We might try again this week if weather permits! We want to hit at least one. There are snow fields but if they stay solid it could be beneficial

Agree - think the snow makes both summits (relatively) easier and less dangerous with smaller chance of rockfall to worry about.

incredible hike and video. Is it worth having a guide on longs peak?

@TheVirtualSherpa

4 жыл бұрын

I think any guided hike in Colorado is a waste of money and time unless you are doing something super technical or perhaps in the winter with skiing/snowboarding involved.

i know of 3 people who encountered a bear from the lupine access. its no joke up there…

So, thinking about making the trip in June of 2024. With a guide that offers 6 months of training and then the onsite guide to the summit. Thank you for your commentary. One question I had was you mention Bear spray. Why not a handgun? I am thinking Spray is just going to tick the bear off.

Really nice video. Is it possible for you to provide a link to your Garmin tracks?

No prob - all my hikes have the gpx garmin file in the complete trail guide in the description of the video

Have you ever done Gannett peak in the wind rivers? I would love a guide on that one.

Would love to get up there one day but haven’t done it yet.

This reminds me of that day I took my pet leopard up the Tetons and we were puzzled as to why we were getting so many strange looks from the people we encountered. Somehow we had strayed into one of those National Parks where eating other hikers is frowned upon.

Awesome as always! If getting to trailhead early (3 or 4am), where do you pay fees to enter the park?

When are you climbing the grand?

would you go back for grand teton?

Would you say it is absolutely necessary to bring an ice axe in June/July? I'm going this summer and I have one, just hoping I could get away without it to lessen the load.

When you do such early morning hikes like this do you sleep in your car or hotel near by? I've always struggled to get up and running so early

Oh man, getting up early is almost always awful but worth it in retrospect. The hours of hiking in grizzly country in the dark are not hours I will miss though haha. Totally depends, usually it’s camping or hotel nearby though. Car sleeping is last resort for me.

@@TheVirtualSherpa Bro hiking in the dark even in Colorado is not exactly great when there is bear or cat shit everywhere. Hell no to Grizzly country in the dark without a large gun lol. Maybe in Winter I guess when they are in the cave, but not a chance in Summer around brown bears for me. Nice video though.

Woohoo! I got the first like in!

If I did this climb later in the year than June would I still need crampons?
