MAILBOX PEAK: A time where I'd never been more excited to see a mailbox

- So I've been eyeing this hike for quite some time. The OLD trail up Mailbox Peak was a rite of passage for many. It is still frequently used to train for mountaineering ascents. However, after numerous injuries, and rescues, and increased erosion, the WA Dept. of Natural Resources created a more gentle trail, the NEW trail which is a lengthier, more kind way up and down.
I opted for a hard ascent and an easier but longer descent. This was after surveying many hikers and climbers about their preference. I think that is the best way to do the trail. It is incredibly steep so save your knees on the way down!

Well, come say hello, whydon'tcha!?
I have one thing to say about you hike..
""""WOW""""
THANK YOU..
Good job! Great weather too
Keep inspiring! I have the ocean to look at but those mountains are something we sea people always enjoy seeing. Beautiful terrain!!! Love this. :)
Wow, great job Ellie!
Them some bad-ass socks.
Been to the top of Mt Fuji twice. Hiked the first time, jogged up the Second. Switchbacks forever.
Never got a chance to climb it but saw it every morning from the base while waiting for the school bus. In 1966.
I'm defintely moving to WA. I live in the PNW. I love Oregon. Every trip fruther noth to WA outdoors has been magical. Every conversation with a local shared a common love for natural beauty. Thank you for the videos.
A heroic deed.
Look at all the cars, You're definitely not alone...
Well Done! I used to hike a lot in my younger days, and I am glad to see it has not gone out of fashion!
That’s a great time up
Never alone.
This trail is on my bucket list! The view from the top looks incredible 🤩
Great video! I love keeping up with your adventures 😊
That old trail is a leg burner, did it a few weeks ago... Great video!
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it! Where should I hike next? :-)
"Glorified stairstepper", you read my mind - almost. I was thinking "that's a stairmaster you can't hop off of when it's too much".
am new to you, am from @Where's Bobet, Good to know about your channel,,, Keep Safe and enjoy
I understand what you're going through. I love hiking and last year, in California with several friends, we hiked Devil's edge, which is part of Mt. Baldy, and has an elevation of 10,064 feet. No lie, my lungs were burning all the way up, but it was a lot easier going down. I do not remember the distance we traveled up, but I do remember we traveled farther on the way down, by taking the more dangerous trail on the decent. Pictures of that hike, plus other hikes I did, are on my personal Facebook page - but not on my business one. :-)
Great for you doing this hike! You will hear people tell you not to hike alone, but clearly in your video, there were other people around.
It's a workout, but the benefits, including the views, are well worth it!
Great job!!!
I like that trail. Its been so long. I can't wait to get back and do it again. Yes, I'm jealous. Well done : )
Great hike. How about hiking Yosemite the views are insane.
An 1hr 40 minutes up ?? good god almighty!
Algorithm brought me to your site for your starlink info. But hey, you hike to. Go get it girl. Long time distance hiker here. Always fun to come across hikers unexpectedly. Looks like a fun trail. Thanks for taking us along.
Nice hike. Miss doing those but the body is no longer allowing. lol
Came for starlink, staying for the hiking updates!
So glad you enjoyed the vlog, I didn't know if it was a good idea to post out of my niche, but I did it anyway!
No post what your passions are. You named the channel with your name. We are all along for the ride!!
@@jezzaRTW Other video ideas I've been thinking about include, what it's like to be a bodybuilder and what it's like to be a TV news anchor, I am both! But I don't know if anyone is interested in that :-)
@@ellieinspace who cares!! Post it and you will see! Your passions and interests! Frankly I will watch eventually only because I have an 8hour work day that I try to educate myself.
I wonder who will be the first person to hike somewhere with a Starlink dish, a tablet and a power supply and access the internet from the wilderness? :-)
You make me jealous! Too many years and too much excess weight. Someday maybe. It will take sheading a lot of weight first. 😁
Goat Greets Hikers... film at eleven.
i think that sign was "if you run out of food, find corpse of hiker to feed on" .. i may be wrong though
That’s the way I do Mailbox peak. Up the ridge and down the trail. Did you leave a dishy up there for me?
I considered bringing Dishy... :-P
That was a pleasant video to watch. Kinda got me into a Zen moment. Relaxing. Thank you
Wasn’t it hot up there? Last I checked a minute ago it was 93.
I did this two weeks ago. So luckily it wasn't hot at all, honestly it was the perfect temp (mid 70s in mostly shade) .... yesterday we hit a high here of 116 in the Tri-Cities.... gulp...
I'd be too out of shape for that right now!
1:40 min, wauw, that's very quick. Are you sure not 2:40 ?
Does Amazon deliver?
🔥🔥
Often you have to work for a view like that.
Chick-fil-A eggs? Well, it's good protein.
Burning question? Did you have mail?
Not the mail I wanted :P
The contents of the mailbox are changing ALL the time! Cool to look inside! :-D
2:51 Creepy horror movie stalker POV
Who wears make-up while hiking? Addicted to the camera a bit maybe.....
You shouldn't be going out to places like that alone since a lot of people tend to disappear!
