The Colorado Trail, A Thru-hike in 2020
Просмотров 5 тыс.3 года назад
www.shetreks.co/ I completed a thru-hike of the Colorado Trail between August 2nd and August 28th, 2020. I had wanted to visit Colorado for several years, never having been before, so on July 28th, I packed up my car and drove three days west; it was the best choice I ever could have made. A friend began the hike with me, and we covered the first 70 miles together, after that, I hiked "alone", ...

My name is Ivey Smith, but my trail friends know me as Kaleidoscope. I thru-hiked the AT in 2017, then hiked from Port Clinton, PA back up to Katahdin in 2018, in spring 2019 I hiked from Port Clinton, south, to Shenandoah before spending 3 months canoeing, backpacking, and mountaineering in Yukon Territory, Canada and the Rockies in British Columbia and Alberta. On September 30, 2019, I made a...
Sorry....parents dying....Im being hypercritical.....all the best..............
Congratulations! I'm starting in the middle of October and could you tell me the limit rate of your quilt, or sleeping bag because you told always there was so cold every night. I don't want to freezing during the nights. Thanks.
Hey! By starting in October your weather will likely be milder than mine, I didn't start until the middle of November. My quilt was rated to 20F, and it was in the teens most nights. I swapped it out for a 15F mummy bag and that was much warmer. Good luck on your trek!!
@@shetreksco Thank you so much! :)
Music super loud then switch to you speaking ..can,t hear you
lol, never said I was a professional videographer or movie producer, but I will try to do better next time!
Not that the music is bad but we’re drowning in it.
first and foremost, congrats on the sobriety!!!!!!!!! Ill be 4 years sober July 30 2024. Second- I am begining to plan my first solo through hike and as a female, its encouraging to see another solo lady hiker! YES! Thanks for sharing your journey with the world. Happy Trails!
Thank you so much! And congrats on 4 years! Have the best time on your hike, going solo is seriously so rewarding.
That was wonderful! I look forward to heading SOBO this fall. Can you explain the ending tribute to persons that died in the desert?
That is so exciting! I am stoked for you. The ending tribute is for persons fleeing their homes in Mexico, Central and South America, to come into the US across our southern border. The Sonoran desert is a harsh place, and often times these people are promised safe passage by individuals who take their money and abandon them in the desert with no water or supplies. Thousands of people have died at our Southern Border. Our obstructive immigration laws/processes are a huge part of the problem; people do not believe they will be able to legally matriculate into the country in a reasonable amount of time, they fear detainment, and they are often fleeing violent situations in their home countries which require urgent relocation.
@@shetreksco I thought so, I want sure if it was a metaphor for persons experiencing SUD or addiction. But yes the southern border is a humanitarian crisis not a security issue. It’s very sad so many policy makers view them as less than human.
Just lovely! Thank you for sharing this video and your adventures ‼️👏👏👏
amazing. well done.
Thank you for making the video it takes alot of trail energy to pull it off. Will think of you next month when I am on the AZT.
Great video! I’m doing the AZT this spring and your video was very helpful for imagining what it will be like! Very different from the PCT!
I’m so glad it was a helpful portrayal! I haven’t hiked the PCT, so I can’t say for sure, but the AZT was a very unique trail haha. I really enjoyed it because it was unlike anything else I’d hiked!
That’s nuts!
Great Vid & Congratulations!! Fellow Thru-hiker here, JMT 2014, PCT sobo 2016 and an AT LASH, GA>VT. I'm considering heading out to the AZT in a few weeks to do the same sobo hike. Questions: Did you use Farout for your hike? What was the longest water carry What are the logistics, airport, shuttle, etc., of getting to and from both terminus's? I'll be flying in from Kentucky. Thank you!! ~Siesta
Hi Siesta! That's super exciting that you're planning to do the AZT! I am going to give you a link to the first of 7 detailed blogs I wrote about my hike (each one covers a 100+ mile chunk of the trail) feel free to read those for more information about my logistics, water carries, terrain, resupplies, etc. I did use Far Out for this hike and I found it very helpful. shetreks.co/iveys-trip-reports/the-arizona-trail-utah-to-the-south-rim-of-the-grand-canyon
@@shetreksco Thanks!! Happy Adventuring and I hope to see ya out there sometime!!
Awesome. My kind of person.... This is the next hike on my list...I hike to stay sober as well....
Heck yeah! Good luck on all of your upcoming adventures!
Hey Ivey. This was great. I have been staying in Killington, VT for several months and so I pass the trail head for The Long Trail every time I go to or from town down to Rutland. Hikers are frequent riders on our public shuttle bus. I used to camp a lot in the summers up around Lake Champlain in Burlington, VT and thereabouts but I never did any trail hiking. I think I might give it a shot this spring or early summer. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad to hear that! It is such an awesome trail. Thanks for sharing a bit of your story! And good luck on your hike :)
love how you share all your ups and downs. Not just the "ups". ALSO really dig how you often use gratitude to center yourself/ pull yourself back to Earth and allow your feelings to just "be". Very inspiring video. Thank you so much for this AND your gear list you published online. This will help my SOBO this fall. Oct -Dec 23. muchO blessings to you Ivey! "chief" HP jr
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that, I definitely try to be really honest about how I’m feeling! Good luck on your hike!
Hey Thanks for sharing great video and keep on humping Ivey
Great filmmaking and very inspirational trip.
Sincere congrats on three years sobriety! I'm at thirty years and while it's never felt like a struggle, I've never taken it for granted either. Keep it up.
This is amazing! Great work
Hiking southbound when did you start? Thinking of starting in late October early November.
I started November 11th, it was very cold!
Amazing video! The AZT is definitely on my bucket list. What an awesome trail. New follower here. Crow
Your pace is crazy! Love the videos
very nice video well done Ive done so many sections of the LT years back with friends and my kids too nice to see those old areas again, some has changed so hasnt that I remember the lincoln gap I froze my rear off one night it dropped to 25* never got to do it all, got disabled, thanks for bringing back old memories if you have a ham radio license a bunch of us locals monitor 146.520 every half hour on the hour as a safety protocol for hikers Congrats
The still at 5:45!! Skies on fire mixing with gentle blue/gray, perspective from the trees, dry earth. :)
Hi! Three things that stood out to me: 1. You! Jeez you are really buhyooteefull! 2. VT. Yes! There's a possibility that I might move there in spring/summer and you capture what I'm going after when I move there, wilderness/peace/happiness. 3. The shot that lasts a few seconds starting at 13:16 is just incredible. The movement of the branches, light and your tent. .... Thanks for sharing this. I'll be sure to check out your other vids! :)
What hoody are you wearing at 2:13 mark? Couldn't find gear list on your website :)
It is an echo sun hoody from Outdoor Research!
Brilliant 🌟! Your videos are always a highlight of my day, thank you for sharing.
Wow beautiful video. I found it looking for AZT videos. I'm planning to go in March!
Hope you enjoy it! It’s such a cool trail!
Just found your videos. Thanks for taking us along. Well done !! I found hiking is the best addiction. Congratulations on your sobriety!! Anita and Jean from Michigan.
Thank you so much! I couldn’t agree more!
Awesome job Kaleidoscope ! You are one tough cookie! I'll never forget how I had to do a slow jog to try and keep up with you for the short time I tried! You should be very proud of what a strong person you are! Congratulations on another great hike!
Thanks so much!!! I really appreciate your encouragement and support! I hope all is well and that you are out there doing some adventuring!
It seemed like the day you climed all day would have been tiring.
Another incredible video. Obviously an incredible woman.
Love,love the Video! One of these days I will work on mine.
A lot of miles in a short amount of time. Congratulations on completing this thru hike. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.
Congrats!
You averaged over 20 miles a day, assuming you took no zeros. Very hardcore!
Twenty mile days on the northern Long Trail is really difficult. Congrats.
Excellent video which I watched with rapt interest as I plan to hike the LT this Fall. Could you suggest a portion my gf could join me on for a week that combines beauty with accessibility? Thanks!
I watched your video some months ago but I am heading out in about ten days to start my hike of the LT. Thanks for sharing.
Hi ivey
Hi Ivey lovely video thank you for sharing! What time of year did you do the LT and in what time frame?
thank you! It was early june
I went to Colorado July 2020 on vacation. I never hiked before, but fell in love with the Colorado trails. Came back to Massachusetts and haven't stopped hiking. Half way through the NH 52WAVs and have completed 21 of the 48s. Thanks for sharing this incredible section of Colorado. Curious, about the Elevation of that trail. You made it look easy, but of course you are a bad ass! Happy trails 👣
Beautiful views! The last view videos I've watched made the trail not so appealing so thank you for showing me the beauty! Happy trails 👣
Thanks for posting. I retired a couple of months ago. Plan on doing the trail this September. It looks beautiful. You did a beautiful job with your video. Congratulations
Congratulations from a CTF volunteer. Enjoyed the scenery and your enthusiasm.
Thank you for all that you do!
About to binge watch some LT vids, yours is the first. I hope I can do this soon!
Heck yes! I hope you can too!
Every trek should end with a cold water dunk!🙃
Anyway to upload a higher resolution of this? Im only getting 360 out of it
