Smart to always respect your limits. Because every normaltrash around you will disrespect your limits in every despicable way they can think of. Especially if you were cursed by having been born with a psychological or mental disability.
@@scotmandel6699t makes total sense. There are WAY more good people than bad people in life. Dude should have helped her more is the only thing. She could have made it with some encouragement.
Thank you for being such a great role model and showing that respecting your limits and making it back to saftey before the weather changes/night falls is so much more important than any summit!
The amount of emergency rescues I’ve seen and helped with on steep scree exactly like that has given me enough respect to stay far away. Stay safe, and always tell someone your plans.
You Rock Madison! You are one of the few that is serving as an inspiration to me as a recover from a terrible accident to hopefully next summer get back out there. Thank You. 🤗
a stranger from the internet... NOT... Foresty is so well known and especially respected for his hiking and summiting abilities... and Rocko of course is the best side kick ever... think he's got over 50 summits already... what a little cute beast he is
Wow. We lost a girl last summer attempting to climb the 7 peaks in the Beartooth Mountains. She started climbing scree/boulder field and her weight cause a rock slide and crushed/buried her. Maybe think twice about climbing those loose rock fields. Stay safe and stay alive!
FF is definitely someone to show you the ropes. His hiking stamina is insane. Happy to see you knew your limits and turned around. Smart move. Take care
Hope you find a permanent reliable hiking buddy. They're was a Lieutenant that went off alone in the Rockies, it was the last thing he did. Stay safe. I reccomend Bad Reichenhall, Germany. -Combat Vet
Well done for recognizing your limits and making the sensible call! Too many people can't bring themselves to turn back when the summit is so close and end up putting themselves (and rescuers) in danger. Its hard to turn back when you've come so far, especially in front of others, but this is by far the more impressive and courageous choice.
This is why I love hiking with my terrier 😂 She is small and compact for easy transport and doesn't need pounds of food, but has no problem keeping up.
I hate loose rocks like this on inclines with no clear path! Had something similar (but probably not quite as steep) on the last 1.5 km to the Zugspitze in Germany. I hated it and thought I would slide back down the mountain. Made it up in the end, but would not have made it if it was any steeper or longer and if I wasn't surrounded by other hikers that day (I'm also a solo hiker but this mountain is tourist trap). I must have been the slowest beetle on the entire damn mountain, crawling up the mountainside on all fours. Going back down by foot was not an option with my heavy pack on my back unless I wanted to break my neck, so the only way was up. And this mountain looks way scarier! Mad respect to you for getting this far and knowing your limits.
Very happy to see a person so in tune with their ability and know when not to push or give in to summit fever. I didn't know angels can climb mountains! so pretty! Keep up the great videos!
Great job knowing your limits, even more impressive is the determination to improve yourself then come back and finish the job! Be very proud of yourself, this random internet stranger is proud of you too!
Adventure Some Times Test ur Body & Mind Hiking to Mountains is Something Ur Inner Soul wants you to Explore the Feel of Freedom you are Born For... Best Wishes Keep Exploring 👊👊👊👊👊
My first attempt at a summit ended in failure due to my lack of stamina and poor weather. I as you did made the correct decision to turn back. Better to turn back and try another day. Keep training and try to be as prepared as possible and you will find it gets easier the more you do it.
Well there’s your mistake! You were following Foresty Forest! You should have been following Rocko! Honestly the man’s a beast, glad you met him because I like both your content 😊
Look below often and make sure you are OK reversing that climb. If you push your limits a bit every time you will be amazed how the same spots that made you turn around previously (chicken) are no longer noticeable. Fear is a good thing: you go build some more muscles and stamina and try again. Remember: you have nothing to prove. The name of the game is progress...every year you will come back to the same mountain and feel like a faster and more powerful hiker, I like to do these specific comparisons. I try to run at 6 to 8 kfeet and that seems to help... with the "dead hangs" and the pull ups. I always try and estimate the energy left and aim to still be near 50% of my reserves when back down to camp ( ie able to do it all again when back down). But I know I often "push it". I am not interested in hiking under the rain if I can avoid it. I have no issue turning around if any doubt...carry extra layers). Starting in a T shirt and ending in 2 more layers plus a puffy and a rain poncho... rain all the way down from 11 to 8.500 feet was yesterday in the Northern Rockies😂. Today: typing this in my van under heavy rain and hail. Always testing your shoes VERY carefully: I have zero tolerance for misteps or slipping...in my mind they are a sign of lack of attention or being tired. Hiking is a "brain game". You should evaluate precisely where you place your feet and with how much kinetic energy with near 100% accuracy. Try and leave nothing to chance. I am in my 70s and I think there is no better exercize to fight aging😂
I watched this video soon after waking up. The view you showed down the mountain was the exact image I had in a nightmare not 15 minutes earlier. Freaked me out a bit.
You already knew the most important thing: prioritizing safety. Here in Switzerland we read about every week that someone has fallen to their death in the mountains
Smart to respect your limits while pushing them!
Yup. She was wise to stop. She probably needs more time at altitude, too.
💯

Awesome hope you make it back ... you go girl!!
"i followed a stranger from the internet deep into the mountains"
“Never to be seen again” is what went through my mind😱. So glad that wasn’t the case❣️🤣🥂🧐🏕️
"what could possibly go wrong" 😂

@@jasonncoxx5837 sorry Rocko! My bad.
Thank you for being such a great role model and showing that respecting your limits and making it back to saftey before the weather changes/night falls is so much more important than any summit!
Well said 👏👏
Skree is absolutely no joke. SO much effort for so little progress.
Two steps forward one step back 😅
@@MadisonClysdalee and 6 hours too! Well done.
Easy to sustain a debilitating injury, too.
Screen is the hardest terrain to hike on by far
It's called "scree." You use hiking poles and it's much easier. And wear actual hiking boots with good solid ankle support. Scree is no big deal then.
The amount of emergency rescues I’ve seen and helped with on steep scree exactly like that has given me enough respect to stay far away. Stay safe, and always tell someone your plans.
Foresty is the man! That would have been a cool hike to be on
Agreed
Best unexpected crossover
Foresty Forest is no random off the internet, he’s a true legend.
I have an agreement with Mountains .
They stay right there and look amazing and I always find a road to drive around them on .
I feel the same way about the ones out here in the west. I used to live in New England and those mountains are real fun to hike up.

I don't .

@lpharmer3496 it's all relative bud.
You did the smart thing - knew when to turn around. You can go back and complete it later. Good job, Madison!

Super wise to dont go, when you dont feel it! Always respect the mountain, you feet and your heart
You did so well. It's great to see your ego wasn't pushing you on when you're tired. It so easy to put ourselves into danger.
Foresty Forest and Rocco! How fun! Good for you for giving it your best, if you keep at it you’ll summit soon.
ForestyForest is a cool dude, been watching him for years especially his mostly backpacking days :)
Great person to team up with. Foresty bags summits like nobody’s business. You got this.
Huge respect for knowing your limit and when its time to save energy to get back! Those types of calls are smart mountain goat 🐐
Wow. We lost a girl last summer attempting to climb the 7 peaks in the Beartooth Mountains. She started climbing scree/boulder field and her weight cause a rock slide and crushed/buried her. Maybe think twice about climbing those loose rock fields. Stay safe and stay alive!
Yup stay clear of boulder fields. This girl isn't clueless
My thoughts too, glad you made it back safely
That's honestly one of my biggest fears when it comes to hiking and climbing. 😖
FF is definitely someone to show you the ropes. His hiking stamina is insane. Happy to see you knew your limits and turned around. Smart move. Take care
Great job! It’s awesome to learn from THE FORESTY himself!
Hope you find a permanent reliable hiking buddy. They're was a Lieutenant that went off alone in the Rockies, it was the last thing he did. Stay safe. I reccomend Bad Reichenhall, Germany.

Foresty Forest is in beast mode 24/7. You two would make a great couple.
love the collab, foresty is an OG hiker
Well done for recognizing your limits and making the sensible call!

Its hard to turn back when you've come so far, especially in front of others, but this is by far the more impressive and courageous choice.
Pushing your limits but knowing when to turn round and come down is the smartest thing you can ever do! Great hiking.
Love the combination of pushing your boundaries but also knowing your limits! You'll most certainly summit another day
I would be scared to death, like damn, y’all are talanted
This is why I love hiking with my terrier 😂 She is small and compact for easy transport and doesn't need pounds of food, but has no problem keeping up.
"So I followed a stranger deep into the mountains."
Very intelligent 🤔
Foresty Forest is no stranger. He's family. Good job knowing your limits. You have a new subscriber.
Rocky’s a champ! 🥰
Was thinking "def not a good idea to do this with a rando" and then you mentioned Foresty Forest. Right choice !
" followed a stranger deep into the mountains" sounds more like beginning of a thriller/horror movie tbh😂
Madison you were smart to turn around. Knowing your limits gives you another day to climb.
Good for you both for trying something that challenges you and for knowing your limits, saving the summit for a different day.
VERY SMART CHOICE being brave enough to withdraw before you got into trouble. Hit it again, when you do top it you'll be that much prouder!
YOU are an incredible human . Good for you !!!
Kudos to you for knowing your limit and stopping, knowing that the mountain was still be there for you to return to conquer it at a different time.

That last section looks death defying with no gas. Smart move.
You did great.
Well thank you 😅
@@MadisonClysdaleeI want to say that as well.
Way past your comfort zone is awesome! ❤ 😊 🌿

Loving all your videos! ❤
"If not friend, then why friend shaped" probably every step of the way.
you are an incredible girl! I am scared of climbing mountains but at the same time, I would like to live around them
Congrats on your progress, and your wisdom to know when to try for the summit another day.
You done magnificent. Don't beat yourself up over not reaching the summit. Be proud of what you achieved rather than dwell on what you didn't.
Foresty Forest is a good channel to follow.
I need to see you and foresty😅. I saw him and Steve Wallis camping. 👍🇨🇦
You’re an inspiration to us all!
Mad props for giving it a try. I don't think I'd have made it all the way either.
So sweet and delicate girl like you summiting such a complicated peaks alone is amazing mind blowing
Great job. Kick ass job.
Treking poles are of great help!
I love foresty forest!
This looks terrifying, but awesome!

100th like! well done, stay safe out there!!
Thanks, you too!
Going on a big hike next summer and I tell my dog we gotta prepare for it but its really me he's gonna have no problems 😂
Good shit, definitely did more than I could.
A pair of adjustable hiking poles is pretty standard equipment for ascending and descending scree slopes. Makes a huge difference.
Foresty is a legend
Knowing when to quit is smart, too many accidents happen when you push yourself too hard. Push yes but know your limit. Great job!
ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR BODY !!! Smart girl GREAT START
Oooooo I love hiking but you wouldn’t catch me dead on that mountain 😂
That’s so cool that you did that amazing job!!!
Good job. Keep working at it.
Beginning felt like she was gonna rap😂
Glad you stayed safe.
Very inspirational!
"I followed a stranger from the internet deep into the mountains"
Things no father ever wants to hear his daughter say.😮
Going down is the worst part! I would have wanted someone there with me for moral support
Persistence always pays! Its so common for Laura and I to not reach summit on 1st attempt. You got this! 👀👍
You're inspiring and you rock!
Good job on turning around
Stay safe 🙏😎🌹 stay Blessed...safe travels 🥾
Always carry the ice axe upside down at your backpack and not like this pointing in your head, a drop on it like that and your gone! Keep it up!
Summiting is optional, getting back isn't. Good job in respecting your limits and using good judgement.
Your determination is admirable, have fun exploring!🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
This girl is so amazing!
Youre the goat! I want to go climbing with you... 😮
