The Little Bear to Blanca Peak linkup is one of the most technical and challenging mountaineering challenges found on Colorado's 14ers. The traverse is rated Class 4, but features several 5.5 moves, blurring the line on the difficulty rating. But this only makes the iconic, rocky ridge traverse that much more attractive to Colorado's diehard mountaineers. The linkup begins by ascending Little B...

You are very welcome. I’m glad it was helpful. It’s a great trip. Enjoy it!!
Great guide as I am planning a trip from Long Beach next month. The maps and approach options were especially helpful. Great job!

It’s Ka - NAB! Not Ka - Knob
Yup. That’s right!
arent your tents too close to the lake?
Nope.
Enjoyed your video! The Kanab area is one of my favorite places to visit and photograph.
Thank you! It has been one of my favorite desert locations as well just so many things to see there
Kanab is pronounced like the abs on your stomach. Ku-nab.
Not if your have a Boston accent. Lol
@@greatheights7774 You are welcome.
Great video. It made me smile to hear you pronounce Kanab. Us locals say Kanaaab, not kanob.
Thanks for taking us to these very cool places!
Thanks for the fantastic video. Can’t wait for the next adventure!!! 😍👍
Kanab in winter is the best!!!! Great video guys.
It is! Thanks Paul.
This is now on my list. Thank you.
Great video guide for the area! Well done!
Thank you! Such a wonderful area to visit
kanaaaaab.
like aaaaaabdomen
Such beauty all around! I think I'll have to go in winter too. Can't stand crowds of people. Thanks for the video showing winter and showing how dogs manage on these hikes.
You’re welcome. Just take into consideration precipitation. If the clay roads, for example to the wave, where most people desire going receive too much precipitation they can become impassable. You can get many alternate and additional places to see at the wave lottery, or ranger station.
She's a beauty!
Woohoo.tha tis super footage, 👌
Very impressive! Wish the segments weren't so abbreviated. Would be awesome to see more of the climbing and scenery.
I’ll work on another one and make sure to do that. Thank you for your insight.
Great idea taking video with 3D camera. Awesome editing and good music choice!
Epic drone shots bro! Do you have it in 1080p?
I do
Wow!! Breathtaking views Mark!! Thanks for sharing!
How many sherpas carried all your stuff?
thezachster18 just one Guide to carry the tent and cook gear. How many did you have to carry yours?
None why? How many carried yours?
Thanks Cate! I hope everything is going well with you!
Thanks bro! Yeah I am doing good! In Western MA these days in the sticks haha!
Holy crap Mark!!!!!! Not every day you find out that someone you know, even if I haven't seen you since high school, has climbed Everest!!!!! Holy crap man!! Congratulations on this accomplishment. Very happy you made it back safely!!
Total bad ass!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
Looks like an epic day. By any chance you have more footage or a trip write up?
schmee bot hi. I have more footage but haven’t done a write up on it.
Very cool summary. Would be neat to see locations noted on the screen. Congratulations on all the summits!
Wow this was so cool to watch. What a beautiful mountain. The drone was a great touch, I'd have never had room in my pack for it!
Nice video. Can you fly a drone in a wilderness area?
Thank you very much for posting this video. The drone footage is awesome. I'm planning on heading up this weekend so it's very helpful to see. How long did it take you car-to-car? Was it hectic crossing the creek? Was there a berdschrund at the edge of the glacier where the chute begins? If so, how did you manage to cross it? There's also a lot of snow in the chute. Were you able to avoid it by climbing on the exposed rock ridges? I apologize for the bombardment of questions. I would send an email but your contact information isn't available. If you have a trip report somewhere, it would probably answer all these questions. If not, I would appreciate getting any information you care to share. Thank you.
thuy bot your very welcome Thuy! I started at 5am. It took 14.5hrs total trip. The river crossing was still very treacherous. Use the birch trees bent over the river to cross by standing on some, and holding o to the others. There are snow fields after finger lake. They have deep sun buckets in them but are better than walking on the scree. There is a bergshrund so I got onto the rock south of the red band. There was not much snow left in the chute and what was there was melting fast so you are able to avoid the snow in the chute. I brought 3 pairs of shoes. River crossing pair, an approach shoe with good traction on the snow (no crampons needed) and a rock scrambling pair. Best of luck!
Holy smokes, 14.5 hours! Thanks for the excellent beta. By any chance you recorded a GPS track?
thuy bot unfortunately not. I forgot my fenix 3 at home. There are some good trip reports out there and once at finger lake you can see the route and direction you need to take very well.
