  • Thank you so much for being here!
    This is by far my favorite National Park! plus they had dog friendly hikes which is not a normal find in a NP. So beautiful! I hope this shows even the tiniest glimpse of the gorgeous scenery.

    I love how you pushed yourself ....moving beyond fears (heights...I relate 100%) and going the distance rewarded you in so many ways. A beautiful video...the vistas are stunning. Excellent job filming. Joey did good...such a trooper!. 🤩

    You did great Chantelle and Joey that looked hard. But this video was just the best to sit and enjoy my coffee you. Bet you both sleep great that night.

    It’s nice to watch you overcome your fears to get to the awesome places you are checking out! Glad it’s worth it to you to take us along when the places are so stunningly beautiful! The color of that lake is so special…Glacial melt water may be its secret. You do a wonderful job of filming and editing, so that I stay engaged. I like your choices of music too. I plan on going back and watching your previous videos, so I can enjoy your earlier adventures and catch up with your process/progress.

    It's good to see a trail that lets dogs on leash in a National Park.. We visited many National Parks in 2017 and 2018 when we took two 52 day trips each, and were constantly looking for places that allowed us to walk our two medium sized dogs. We got to Washington State from Maine on the 2nd trip but never made it to the Northern Cascades. Got as far as visiting relatives in Granite Falls. Travel safe.

    So, during covid I started going on trails, I am overweight and I have back problems so it was really difficult for me...I went to the thrift store and found a great walking stick...it has helped me so much! Just a simple relief from all the pressure on my back and hips...just thought I'd suggest it for anyone who faces these same issues...happy hiking!
