Capt Dan PCT 2016 VLOG #91- Oregon Skyline Trail alternate
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2024
- There are numerous alternate trails along the PCT - Crater Lake, Eagle Creek and the Ramona Falls alternates are some of the popular ones. The Oregon Skyline Trail is an alternate that nearly all PCT thru-hikers take who are resupplying at Shelter Cove because it's about 8 miles shorter, 1000 feet lower in elevation and has more water sources than the corresponding section of the PCT.
"five-mile death march" - that cracked me up!
:)
I love how you show your town stops. A lot of other vloggers seem to never do that. I know you're on alternate routes, but it's still nice how detailed you are in the videos.
I know people are mainly interested in the trail, but I tried to show parts of the whole experience.
Ramona falls and eagle creek are must see! some of my favorite parts of Oregon.
Luckily they're near the PCT. Most people take these detours to see these two spectacular water falls. I'm glad I did too.
Those lakes are so clear - its like looking through glass! You've gotten really good at slogging through snow - doesn't slow you down much any longer. :)
They were exceptionally clear in that section. Someone told me one of the reasons they were clear was because they don't contain oxygen.
The ost trail definitely looks like it was worth the detour 👍🏻 happy trails captn Dan
With the weather and snow at upper elevations, me and 99% of the hikers were happy to take the OST.
Loved that last shot. You've got a terrific eye!
Thanks Ken. Glad you enjoyed it.
The sound you heard while doing laundry was the chirping of an agitated Douglas Squirrel. It fools a lot of people thinking it's a bird. They have a big attitude for a small squirrel.
Cool.. .Thanks! Mystery solved. :)
Captain Dan you were back!
Yes I am, David.
"this looks like here we are" hahha Roxana burst out laughing... so many nice lakes.. at lesat you got to take a boat ride out of the death march ha ha/ thanks for the map feature too interesting to see that
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
I just finished taking the yoran Lakes loop and Shelter Cove now has a restaurant hamburgers a nice ad on to The resort
Glad to hear it. Hope ya had a fun hike.
Capt Dan! I hate that the first time I contact you to be a request! I've been thoroughly enjoying your videos of your journey, feel that I may know you in a way. Thanks for sharing with us all. Can you share with me/us the name of that wonderful soulful tune that's playing while you're on the swing, it's kind of playing through you and is so appropriate for the setting. I've only gotten this far in your PCT videos and am savoring each of them. Thanks. Peuped ("pew ped", AT trail name from long ago).
Hi Peuped. Glad you're enjoying the videos. The song is "I'm Not The Only One" by Sam Smith, and it's covered by missingiimprovisation on RUclips. If you search for that on RUclips you'll find it. At the end of this PCT playlist, I've got four videos that are a compilations of all the musical interludes in my videos. You can find out the names of other songs on them. Thanks for watching the videos! Hope you had a great time on the AT.
I went from Walker pass to tohatchapi this year and it sure was the driest section of the PCt
Michael Thorne I don't doubt it. Dry area.
Great close!
Thanks Gary.
Captain Dan are you having to use a bear canister?
No, they were only required in the National Parks in the Sierras.
