@@DannyJSchaefer Yes. Trying to. Didn't win the lottery for Enchantments, but have a close by spot reserved for Aug. Want to make some hay and memories.
Right on. Check out the Tank Lakes to Necklace Valley loop - I hear it gives the Enchantments a run for its money. August would be just the ticket for it and it’s on my list.
Thanks Karina! To be honest I didn't use either. Up until this year I never hung my food or concealed it in any way. Now, I carry around a Ursack XL and it's fantastic. At Spade, I wasn't really concerned with bears, but critters are out there and if they're hungry enough they'll get into your pack. The Ursack is great because it's critter proof and I think it'd be great for Spade. Thanks for watching and for subbing to the channel - really appreciate the support!
I would say that up on the eastern ridge above where we camped there'd probably be a spot or two you could make work.. There's actually some trees up there compared to the rocky shore that we were at. And no! I haven't heard of a sunken plane up at Spade.. do you have any more information on that?
@@DannyJSchaefer I unfortunately only have very little evidence except for two separate forum posts I found online in forums. If you Google "Piper Super Cub Spade Lake" you should find them. One of them is from a Cle Elum local so it seems legit.
@@iimurrman I’ll look it up now.. sounds pretty crazy. Thanks for sharing it! Would love to have you as a subscriber to the channel if interested. Let me know if you have any more questions regarding the trip. Have a great time!
No overnight permit needed for this one - just a Northwest Forest Pass to park your vehicle at the trailhead. There’s a little free permit you fill out at the trailhead, but that’s all. Did that answer your question? Thanks for watching the video!
Hey thanks a lot Michelle! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I see that I gained a new subscriber (it doesn't always tell me who), and if it was you - thank you! Hope you get to go to Spade/Venus Lake one of these days. Cheers!
July 15th of last year! So just about one year ago. Thanks for the comment man! Would love to have you as a subscriber to the channel if interested. Let me know if you have any more questions regarding the trip 👍🏼
Thanks! We added this trip to our list for 2021. Definitely bringing my Tevas for the water crossing! If you have't already, check out La Bohn Lake and Mt. Hinman or Tank Lakes for this summer. Great trip!
Awesome man! If you think about it, you'll have to report back here after your trip - would love to hear how it went! I will definitely look those up. I remember researching Tank Lakes last year, but completely forgot about them until now.. Might be a trip for the upcoming backpacking season. Thanks again for watching!
Nice summary, thanks for sharing your experience!
Awesome Break Down

Great tips! Did you use a bear bag or canister?

Any good Hammock spots at Spade? We are headed up in a couple weeks. Also - were you able to spot that sunken plane at Spade?

Thanks for all of the details! Perfect length video, love the maps you use and the zoom to get perspective!
