The Narrows - Zion National Park
Today we hike The Narrows in Zion National Park. This hike is in a canyon walking through a stream most of the time.
Since I did this in December I rented the dry suit bib package from Zion outfitters. This comes with canyon shoes, neoprene socks, a walking stick, and the dry suit bib that is similar to a pair waterproof overalls. They are located just outside the park entrance.
I would rate the difficulty as around 3/10. It can be somewhat tough crossing from one side of the water to the other. There were a couple areas where the water was almost all the way to the top of my bib.
I enjoyed the hike quite a bit and would recommend it. The only thing I would do differently is bring a waterpro...

Angels Landing - Zion National Park
Просмотров 328День назад
Today we hike Angels Landing. This hike in Zion National Park requires a permit. You can acquire it either from the day before lottery as we did or from a seasonal lottery. The hike itself is somewhat difficult based on the uneven nature of the terrain. The sandstone can get a bit slippery in some places also. I would rate it a 5.5/10 for difficulty. I enjoyed the hike very much and would recom...

Near Point with moose encounter
Просмотров 91Месяц назад
Today we hike Near Point from the Prospect Heights trailhead. Overall the hike is fairly easy with not elevation gain early but a fair bit after a couple miles. I would rate this around a 5/10 for difficulty. We also encountered a moose which was pretty cool. 00:00 Intro 4:56 Moose Time
Mount Eklutna/Bear Point Loop
Просмотров 42Месяц назад
Today we do a loop hike and hit both Bear Point and Mount Eklutna. This is a nice middle difficulty hike. I’d say around 6/10 or so. The beginning up to Bear Point is fairly steep and somewhat challenging. I prefer to skip Bear Point and just go right to Mount Eklutna. The climb up Mount Eklutna isn’t too difficult but it also is somewhat steep. After that’s it’s a nice easy walk down to the ma...
Marston Muktuk Trail Loop (Arctic Valley)

Today we are hiking in Arctic Valley on the a loop hike up Rendezvous ridge and returning on the Marston Muktuk Trail. This day was a great mix of fall and winter. The trail we took starts just off the parking lot when you pass the main building. And heads onto Rendezvous Ridge. Follow this to before Rendezvous peak and take a right and follow that ridge until it intersects with the Marston Muk...
Hatcher’s Pass (Reed Lakes and Independence Mine)
Просмотров 376Месяц назад
Today we hike part of Reed Lakes and visit Independence Mine. I ended up stopping before halfway on Reed Lakes because the boulders were pretty slippery with the fresh snow. We will finish it off next year though. We also visited Independence Mine which is an easy little walk around an old mining area.

Hanging Valley Lake - Beautiful Fall Colors
Просмотров 342 месяца назад
Today we hike to Hanging Valley Lake. This is a fairly easy hike but on the longer side. The trail is straightforward you just have to make a left a half mile of so after the bridge and follow the trail in the valley. Once in the valley just follow the trail and head up into the little bowl where the lake is. I’d rate the difficulty about a 4.5 or so just because of length.
Chutes & Ladders Hike Girdwood Alaska
Просмотров 1772 месяца назад
Today we hike Chutes & Ladders in Girdwood. On our way to the slot canyon we missed the turn off and wandered around in the woods for about 30 minutes or so. The video should give straightforward and easy to follow directions from the Winner Creek Gorge parking lot to the slot canyon. The hike was very fun but a bit more on the physical side because you need to ascend and descend ropes. Difficu...
Höllentalklamm Gorge to Hollentallagerhutte hike
Просмотров 952 месяца назад
Today we hike Höllentalklamm Gorge to Hollentallagerhutte. This was a very fun hike. For difficulty I may rate it a 5 out of 10 or so. First off make sure to bring the 7 euro entrance fee with you. There was a place to get food and use the restroom after the first initial climb of about an hour or so to the entrance of the gorge. Then you travel through the gorge, this was the best part of the ...
Pioneer Peak

Today we hike up Pioneer Peak this is a pretty difficult hike but has amazing views. I would rate it a 9/10 for difficulty. On the final steep part make sure to stay to the right side as the left side can be dangerous. On our hike we got to within about 100 vertical feet of the peak and had to turn back because of the snow and visibility. The lower parts are very muddy in wet weather and we wer...

    • @Hikeasaurus23
      @Hikeasaurus23 7 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the support. I kinda jacked up my leg so it will be awhile until I post more videos. I think the best way to get used to hiking alone is to start on more popular trails. Baldy, Rabbit Lake, South Fork, and Flattop are all well traveled. With more people around you are less likely to run into wildlife. But if you are by yourself on a less popular trail just try to be noisy so you don’t surprise any animals. Also I would recommend looking into the statistics. There is a very low chance of actually being attacked by an animal. O one other tip is look up what to do if you do happen to run into an animal. I hope that helps.
