Very well done my friends! Truly enjoyed this and wished I had been out there with you guys. Man did you see a lot of beauty packed into just a few days. Again great job!
Wow! What a great trip and perfect video that you made. Thanks for sharing and excellent job on the video. One of the best I've seen (and I've watched many) and gives me another trip to put on the bucket list
Great area. What an awesome loop. Definitely going on my list for some day, hopefully. Can you share the small solar panels you guys had on your packs. They look perfect
Hi @@AdventuresoftheLandNorth the solar cell is a 5w cell from Amazon: a.co/d/03GWVpQ. It worked well for Andrea the whole trip, topped off her battery each day. I scratched my early in the trip and it stopped charging. A friend has one and it worked very well for him on the HST this summer. Lightweight and not expensive.
Great videos! I've seen a hundred Yosemite and RMNP videos over the years. Yours are in the very top tier! Great videography, really great relaxing music, little wasted chit-chat like many others! Prefer the long videos, so get back out there, RMNP would be great.
Great trail. Loved the scenery and those gnarled old Juniper trees. I’m curious about what you two ate? I struggle to get more than five days food in a bear canister. Happy trails.
@@hope2someday691 thanks! We usually have the standard dehydrated meals for dinner, I like tortillas with chicken from the foil packs for lunch. Snacks are cliff bars, beef sticks etc. We have the Bearicade Weekender bear canisters and have been able to squeeze in 7 days of food a few times. For those trips we vacuum seal the contents of the dehydrated meals, takes up a lot less space.
Stunning scenery! Thank you for sharing 😊 A few years ago I got to backpack Glen Aulin to Waterwheel Falls. For the past 2 years I got permits to do the Grand Canyon of the Toulumne & have had to cancel due to work conflicts- Super Bummed! Hoping next year is the year, 3rd times a charm right?! Your video has me reconsidering a point to point & maybe doing it as a loop!
@@tahcandiloro definitely make a loop out if it if you can. You could easily start this loop from Tuolumne, head down through the canyon to White Wolf and then to the Ten Lakes Basin before returning to Tuolumne Meadows. Thanks for watching!
So... you're doing all the setting the camera, get filmed walking by, then going back to get the camera, no 3rd person? If that's so, you two are amazingly dedicated to this!!
I keep saying it Rick, but the editing is just on another level! Video is especially sharp and detailed. Fantastic video and the views are insane! Are those the Lixada 5w solar panels? How did they work out for you?
@@wolfeadventures Thanks Brad! Yes, those are the Lixada 5w cells. Same as Mike I think. Worked great the whole trip for Andrea, topped off her battery most days. I scratched mine on some branches early in the trip and it would not charge aftwards so not sure about durability. Mike used his on the HST, said it worked great.
Gorgeous love your "loop" much preferred to "out-n-back". BTW what solar panel are you using (watts/weight and how efficient was it?) I am looking for a good alternative to multiple battery banks for longer trips.
Hi Steve. The solar panels are from Amazon: Solar Panel Charger USB Port... www.amazon.com/dp/B01MCXZJ8Y?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share. Worked well for Andrea, kept her battery charged up. Mine stopped working halfway through the trip. The panel got scratched and would not charge my battery so not sure how durable it is.
Great videography of your trek. I noticed you're carrying a portable solar. May I ask the brand and your experience with it, such as how much charge you're getting out of it when you have bright sunny conditions? Thanks!

@RickandAndreaGetOutside if you could only pick 1, which Yosemite hike would you pick, this one or the high sierra camp loop?
Love the video, planning to do the High Sierra Loop next summer.
You will love that one!

How was the temperature during the day and night ?
Nights were very pleasant, not cold at all. Day time temps were quite warm in the canyon, cooler up in the basin.
did the solar panels work as expected? if so what model did you guys used?

Do you carry 5 days of food or restock along the way?
We carried 5 days. There really wasn't a good option to resupply along the way.
