    I went in June and started on the Minong trail on a day that hit 90 degrees. I questioned all my life choices that day but then on my loop back to Windigo had Feldtman lake campground to my self if you exclude the moose. Sunset watched the moose playing in the lake and sunrise coffee lakeside watching the moose eat on the beach was amazing!

      Feltman I think it's my favorite camp! It was really private and the lake was warm and gorgeous. But the hike in and out was roughhhhh lol

    Great video. Nice work with the editing. Wow that storm looked sketchy. Glad the tarp held up and you didn't get flattened.

    Awesome trip video as per usual! 900 moose is so many for an island like that! We only have roughly 3,000 in the entire state of Utah. Cool to see the Highline backpack really loaded up. 9 days is a long trip!

    I did that trip a number of years ago. I thought the ferry ride in was interesting. Fun to learn about all the historical fishing villages around the island. I saw a ton of moose when I was out there.

    Great video! I have a question for you please. On your compression dry sack, do you use the 13 L or 20 L sack? Thank you!

      In the safety briefing prior to leaving, they specifically said not to do that. 😂

      Have fun. If someone is struggling, don’t push them too hard to where it isn’t fun. ✌️

      Garmin "Inreach mini" will give u info via satellite. "Don't leave home w/out it" js. Amazing piece of equipment.

    Did you get your Garmin back or have to buy a new one? This is on my list to do.

    Oh MY GOSH. That campsite was the site we camped at where the tree fell down. Before that storm, i noticed that tree was really bad, very rotted and dead and mentioned it to my husband. We were camped right under it during a storm, i was so relieved to leave that site that morning. 😮

    Whew, a storm blew in on us at feldtman this past Sept, and we were holding our tent up from inside and water was inches deep outside the tent pooling around us. It was wild. 😳 I had planned on sleeping on the beach that night, but saw the clouds coming in and good thing i made it in the tent😂

    Oh I did not like that comment about having a beer belly or whatever! It was very difficult to get a campsite! I had the worst blisters I’ve ever had in my entire life! I wouldn’t even call them blisters they were open wounds! So yes it was a race to get to camp! So I could cry all the cries!
