That sounds awesome brother I haven’t been up to Marmot Pass in a while. I am dealing with some bursitis in the knee and haven’t been able to get out much in the last two weeks😅. Working for a sea kayaking company in Port Angeles so staying busy at least. Hope all is going well and you are getting some good hikes in.

@@scottalpine hey sorry for just responding. I hope you are having a great summer and getting some awesome adventures in.

@@forestdweller512 Yup great so far, no worries on a late response, life happens.

It always amazes me how the weather changes every few thousand feet of elevation gain in the Olympics. Pissing rain at sea level and a blizzard at 5k’. I spent the winter working in Colorado and it was snow all the time no real variety like the PNW.

The conditions were incredible along the entire hike🙏.

I love the ability to take the bus up there.

Thanks brother. I am thinking about going back next week while the conditions are still prime 🤪.

Thank you🎉

Glad you enjoyed it. Its narrow in one section but most of the ridge traverse is pretty mellow.

Its amazing up there

@@forestdweller512 looks like the summer solstice was beautiful!

One of my top 5 ski days of all time😀

@@forestdweller512 I can see why ☺️

Mt. Angeles. Luckily I saw the snow falling from some cliffs overhead and had a few seconds to take cover and pull out my phone😂.

I love it up there. And only a 5 minute drive from my house to the TH🙏.

Just another day in the Olympics 🤪

The goats were removed by the NPS because they were invasive. Some of them they captured and relocated to the N.Cascades and others shot. I saw the goat hunting helicopter when I was out on the Bailey range. Also a gentleman was killed by a goat up on Mt. Angeles in 2010.

Love your videos brother. I have seen a few where you were hiking the Olympics! Super cool.

yes Sir lots of resin:)

I wouldn't be so sure about that. A part of me can picture Bill M. (RIP) enjoying some wacky tabbacky, lmao.

@@rfugate42 but never on stage.

It was a fabulous day😀. The area had been closed for two days and I got lucky enough to get up there right when they opened the terrain.

@@forestdweller512 I’m a new snowboarder and I can’t wait until I can go again but the season is almost over😢

⁠@@anaboveaveragedogI work at Steamboat Resort so I get lots of turns in😀. Wishing you many years of awesome snowboarding 🎉.

Lmao I hope you’re kidding. American folk music doesn’t cover that topic so you might as well look somewhere else.

@@KuuchWizard whats wrong with showing a bit of compassion for the victims of your countries 70 year long campaign of genocide. Show the rest of the world you're not all baby billing nazis like we can see you are... or are you one of those "believers"? We hear you have most of the religious extremists in the world lol

Way to bring the mood down bozo

I believe the song you're looking for would be Wargasm.

The second one i made up, but it works well over Little Wing 😀

it was a great winter. I got in over 100 days at The Boat.

🎉🎉🎉

he gonna be hangry

No Sir it is not very exposed. Easy to walk up the the summit area.

Not yet but plan on it in the future. My focus this spring is to climb Mystery.

He's California sober. Just grass man. No alcohol and hard shit.

If you didn't know him smoking you have been living under a rock 😂

​@montana47261 wait, so you mean, all this time, that Billy Strings smokes pot? 😱 I'm shocked and appalled. In fact, I don't even believe it. I guess next you're going to tell me that Snoop fella smokes weed too. Dude steps onto the stage and rips through Sabbath and Zeppelin, bluegrass style. That doesn't sound like someone who smokes pot at all, 😅

Thanks Brother. Yes definitely squatchy country. I was considering going back up there next week.

You definitely need to get up there. It never really gets very crowded but my favorite time to get up there is late fall/early winter. Once the snow starts to piles up there is a section that can be difficult to get through without skis.

@@forestdweller512 cool. Hoping to eventually get something like the Altai Hok for that kind of stuff. They’re a Washington based company. Winter can be tricky n the Olympics just because of the wind and trees as big as mountains. But when the weather is good…

@@Olympic_TryAthlete I am driving down to Steamboat Springs tomorrow to work at the Resort for the winter⛷️. Got lots of climbs and backpacking trips planned for when I return to the Peninsula. Still need to knock out Olympus, Constance, and Mystery.

@@forestdweller512 have a great winter there! Sounds awesome. I’m just hoping to do a few winter trips like Cape Alava or the Elwha. Also hoping to get some Montana time this year. Bitterroot’s or the Cabinets.

Thank you I appreciate it. This was one of my favorite hikes I have been on in recent years.

It was such a nice day. I was feeling pretty cooked from the sun and the hike up by the time I started fishing🤣. I didn’t really have expectations of catching anything. According to WDFW the lake has neen stocked in the past but I didn’t see any signs of fish.

@@forestdweller512 Have you been to Buckhorn Lake? There were quite a few in it when I was there.

I appreciate it brother.

Hey thanks brother. Sorry for the late reply. Silver Lake is awesome🎉.

Nice! I hope you can get up there. This week looks like a number of nice days. Im plotting where to go. May be lazy beach bum and spend a few nights on the coast and have some bon fires. I love my double rainbow. Only downside is crawling in and out. Condensation hasn’t been a huge issue. I purchased the liner they sell and that helps alot. Also I generally only use it for summer backpacking when condensation isint as big issue. Its light and packs down nicely and easy to set up. Made in America with great customer service and the price is affordable. I would highly recommend. I have a number of friends who have purchased one after seeing mine and all love it.

​@@forestdweller512that does sound nice. What do you use in the winter?

I hiked the Bailey a few years ago. Beautiful and rugged hike. I loved Ferry Basin. I have a couple videos posted of my Mt. Carrie climbs. Unfortunately I am recovering from a herniated disc in my back and haven’t been able to get out into the backcountry this summer.

Keep in good spirits. In 2001, I broke my ankle coming down to the Dosewallips trail from Deception basin. Took 7 and a half hours to get to the trail. Surgery and steel plate with screws, 13 months later I climbed Rainier. Keep up the physical therapy. God bless.
