3 Days Backpacking in Glacier - The Northern Loop

  • Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
  • Before setting off on the 1,200km Great Divide Trail we took a road trip to a couple national parks. Glacier was high on my list as I had never been before, it is home to the Continental Divide Trail, and the environment is very similar here as to what we will experience in the Canadian Rockies on our thru hike.
    THE BACKPACKING GEAR WE USED!
    www.jupiterhike...
    Grizzly bears, massive glaciated mountains, lush forests, snow, mosquitoes, and all manner of fun smaller wildlife. We decided to hike the 60 mile Northern Loop through Glacier National Park, and try to do it in just three days. The hike could be as little as 50 miles depending on where you start, but given permits can be hard to get we had some bonus miles to do.
    It was an incredible hike, and one I would certainly recommend.

    Thanks for watching! Sorry that the audio isn't great, I had very little time to put this video together before leaving on the GDT. Check out any recent updates from our hike on my Instagram @jupiterhikes !

    Glacier is so breathtaking. Just amazing scenery. So glad you got to do the trip (and your Great Divide trip, too)...with someone you care for and who enjoys backpacking as much as you. That is a blessing.
    Thanks for (another) beautiful video. Best wishes...and best of luck on the Great Divide !

    New sub here, from Sandy Eggo. PCT is on the bucket list, but I'm grateful for all of the awesome trails near me. Dr. Suess used to hike them too. You can see the way he draws plants and vegetation. Some of the stuff you see makes you think you're on another planet. Cheers Jupiter, happy trails.

    What a beautiful park, and how appealing you make it look with your filming and narration. I notice that, ahum, the camera really loves Sprocket! 😇 Have a good GDT the 2 of you.

    I just turned 30. Its gonna take me many miles and many years before I can get to your level and hope to take on adventures like these, at least without getting lost and dying. im not trying to endanger myself or anyone with me though so Im going on my first hiking loop over labor day weekend with some friends its about 20 miles. I hope to take on a few small places like that this year to gain understanding and dial in my gear and my weight. Then when my next 2 week vacation comes up ill try something a little harder. Im just trying to take things slow and ramp up to something like the stuff you do one day.

    When I day-hiked Ptarmigan Tunnel years ago (looks like I was headed the opposite direction you went), I saw someone continue on down the trail past the tunnel (which was the turnaround point for the day-hike). I wondered where they could possibly be going. Now I know! Thanks!

    Hot damn. A Jupiter Video pops up and I drop everything. Just like I am doing now! Is Sprocket's hat a "Sunday Afternoon"? Also see she has the spiffy Jr Ranger badge on the back-pack. BTW such gorgeous country. Knocked my socks off. Just can't get over it nor get it out of my mind
