    Very well done sir! Was a great trip. Packed in a lot of stuff in a short time! Thanks for the filmmaking. Will be cool to watch again when I need a mental break in the woods.

    The beauty of Hump Mountain is that no matter which direction you come from, you have to work to earn that gorgeous view.

      You are very kind. Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Despite the rain it was definitely one of my favorite trips. Shot the whole thing on iPhone 13 Pro except for a few clips that Mike contributed.

      Let’s just say that there are times when it’s relaxing and times when it’s not 😅

      Hey, thanks! This was a great trip. Definitely one of my favorites. Mike and I used bear canisters mostly for the simplicity and convenience. They’re great for protection from bears and smaller critters, too. Have a great hike 😄
