That there photo shoot got bombed by a Frozen Outdoor Adventures! RR needs to HIKE HER OWN HIKE!!! Safety is ALWAYS FIRST no matter what! Thanks for taking us along with you on your journey! Be safe and Happy Trails!!!
- Shybee
Safety first. Always! You are never a disappointment! So excited to see your adventure through the Sierras!
I'm only 51 videos in on your hike, but loving every minute. Binge watching episodes tonight, lol. I haven't seen your AT hike yet either. Looking forward to that.
Safety first. Looking forward to this section. !!
Absolutely.. you stay safe… you and your tramily. ✌️🙂❤️
Just found your videos today, and already I'm hooked! Keep on hiking on!
Thanks for adding the food you folks eat while in town to the video. Love it.
I enjoy watching your journey and respect all your decisions since your the one on the trail and it’s your hike I appreciate you sharing your journey so I watch to enjoy everything and not judge you or any of your decisions good luck 🍀 and look forward to the next section of your hike 🌸🌸
Safety first! Excited to hear that you are already thinking about the John Muir Trail. It will be fun to follow you in that one as well.
It’s your hike not ours. I didn’t even know Mt. Whitney was a side trail on the PCT so there’s that.😂. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️
I'm following a number of PCT'ers this year, and almost all of them that have made it that far as of yet have either said no to Whitney from the outset, or decided to try it, and about half way up turned around due to very sketchy conditions and the safety risks.
All of that is to say it's probably not safe right now to try and tackle it.
Nothing you do or don’t do would make me disappointed. It’s your hike I’m just privileged to experience it thru you.
Hike your hike!
Hope the first week of the Sierras went smoothly!
@ 5:35 ...If you were to attempt Mt Whitney now, you would be following the JMT. It's the same trail from Crabtree Meadow ;-)
Doing it later in the year would make it easier, as there would be less/no snow and ice. Be safe 🙂
I think you are very smart to not do Whitney this time of year after a heavy snow season. I've done Whitney by itself, I did the JMT and bypassed Whitney as I had already done it via the Whitney Portal. It's no joke. Especially after you pass the 13K elevation mark. Do it next year as part of the JMT. And I suggest doing the JMT later in the year after the snow melt. The experience will be completely different than what you will see on the PCT.
Glad that you're recognizing your limit and saying so. People get themselves hurt when they don't know how to do that.
Just enjoy mount Whitney view for now while making headway north
Not mentioned, quite a few people who’ve tried Whitney before you this year turned around due to safety concerns. Many of them had crampons which I don’t believe you are carrying. Safety first.
Photo bombed by Frozen 😀
I found seeing the inside of TCO interesting!!! Thanks for sharing!
I’m happy that you’re so happy with your new tramily! Your joy brings joy. Good for you! Keep going and keep making good decisions that are good for thyself! Keep on trekking! Peace ✌🏼
Safety is first
Smiles and laughs to go around 😎
Be Safe. HYOH. I took me 3 attempts to summit Mt. Whitney. It was my 2nd attempt from the west, as part of the JMT, when I finally made it. I'm confident it will still be there if you choose to attempt in the coming years. Be well!
Smart to take time to rest before the Sierra. Safety first. Happy trails! 👣
Safety always number one!
Whitney also interrupts the nobo flow. For example, after attempting, rach and dan stopped before tyndall, whereas crabtree straight to the base of forester is more natural
From there, you can get up around 6am, hit forester and maybe even get over kearsarge, or stay under it by the lakes past bullfrog
You can spend a lifetime exploring the range. The pct/jmt misses hundreds of alpine lakes and x- country routes & passes located in the peaks surrounding you
Whitney itself can be done in multiple ways, from the east or west, ranging from a day hike to 3-4 night quickie long weekends
Heck, you could even do something direct in sept/oct, going up shepard, x-country to wallace, then on the jmt, whitney and out
Make your own decision about Whitney, but also keep in mind the 3 people who unfortunately passed this year I believe were skiing/snowboarding and on the mountaineers route, not the route you’d be on. You can always turn around. If you do it go in the early morning, and enjoy it, Whitney is a very special place. Keep it up!
All three were on the east side of Whitney, roadrunner would be ascending from the west and going back down on the west. None of the fatalities were skiing or boarding. Two were descending a chute and apparently slipped and went all the way down, and the other was on a guided trip and a rock fell on him.
Did it last year and it was great. But reasonable safety precautions at this time of year makes sense
Happy to be on your journey 🎉
5:08 Hike your own hike! 😂. Seriously though, do Mt. Whitney if it feels safe and you want to, don’t if it doesn’t feel safe or you don’t want to. We are along for the ride, please don’t let anyone pressure you about that! ❤
I love your videos! Enjoy and stay safe
Busy day and not so busy 🤪
lol a Frozen photo bomb. 😂
Just to let you know the people who died were on the mountaineer trail to Mt Whitney, totally different trail than what you would do from the PCT.
Nice cameo by Frozen. Lol
Be safe! No Mtn witney is fine by me! Care about you toooooo much!!!!
Safety first if you don’t feel comfortable hiking Whitney then skip it, especially since it is not part of the PCT Like you say, you can always do it another time.
Whitney is just a poopy peak anyway. You are hitting the melt off now, so lots of sketchy crossing ahead. Remember to unbuckle your waist buckle when crossing.
Viel Spaß in der Sierra. Du hast ja eine gute Tramily!🤞
You got a great group, always good to be safe in the mountains especially when there is ice and snow involved and potentially sketchy weather. Good luck dancer. 💃🏼
first rule of thru-hiking; Don't die. If you don't feel comfortable going up Mt. Whitney, then don't. It's a big ass mountain, and it's not on the PCT, so there's no "need" to do it, other than the Sir Edmund Hillary reasoning of "because it's there". Don't die.
How funny. @2:50 I realized the two hiker channels I'm following this season DON'T know each other but one photobombed the other right dere. RoadRunner meet Frozen.
You do you meet your goals. I hate hikers going on about other peoples hikes and what their doing or not doing.
Mt. Whitney is overhyped. You are not missing much at all. Don't overthink it. The PCT in the Sierras is an absolute stunner. Enjoy!
Mt. Whitney is not over hyped. It's the highest peak on the 48 states, and has amazing views.
@@MaxZomboni That's your opinion. The peak is not prominent and barely noticeable on the entire ridge line. The views are exactly the same. If one wants to climb it just to claim they climbed ''the highest peak in the lower 48'' that's their choice. There are definitely a lot more massive and interesting peaks in the world and in the USA. It is overhyped and if they vlogger here will feel umcomfortable doing it then she will not be missing much, or anything.
Savety first! Skip the Mount W.
Spoiler: They skipped it (like Rach and Dan), good decision.
I was wondering if Frozen and u would meet up, cool
Don't bother with Mt Whitney. It isn't worth the time and trouble. Enjoy your RnR. Good Luck, Rick
Just: Hello from Germany:-)
Always best to be safe. NO need to risk your life and your friends for a youtube video
Thanks 🙏
That's the biggest pancake I've ever seen! Not sure who wants y'all to do Mt Witney if it's not on the PCT. HYOH!
How many miles is the Sierra Section?
The High Sierra is commonly thought of as the most grandiose. This section spans 390.25 miles and has total elevation gain of 57,888 feet.
390 miles.
Just fyi mt whitney is pretty chill from pct side i think easier
Why would YOU skipping Mt Whitney disappoint anyone?
Grunpy bear..... 😅 why is he grumpy 😅.... well there sence in dieing just to hike a mountain. For likes and clicks im just saying.
All I want to know, Julianne, is "did you eat that whole hotcake?" That thing totally overwhelmed the plate. Looked delicious. Glad you spent a lot of time resting. The rest probably came in handy as you started the Sierra. Besides, you're entitled to a rest day, whenever you need one. I so enjoy your videos. You have a great relationship with the camera. Your sense of humor is great. I even appeciate your sense of irony. You are a great hiker and I believe you can do anything you set your mind to
do. By now, you're through or almost through the Sierra. Take care. Stay safe. See you tomorrow.
Interested to hear what Bougie's favorite Systematic Theology is.
Loved you got to meet Frozen. He truly is an inspiration for my future AT hike though after watching you on the PCT, and I have had some backpacking on it. It gives me the itch to pursue it over the AT. I tried hiking Whitney early April years ago and hit knee deep snow. I’ve watched some hikers ahead of you who have turned around. Stay safe. Love your new tramily. Stay safe and enjoy watching your transformation on this trail.
Well, that’s it! If you don’t do Mt Whitney, I’m gonna, gonna, I guess watch whatever you do! 😊😊😊 Definitely, safety first. ❤❤
Sorry, this is your hike! You decide about your risks! Don’t do it if it is to risky! Stay healthy and enjoy your hike 😊
I agree with you, waiting on your decision whether to climb Mt Whitney is a good move. All climbing should be based on the climbing conditions and your goal. Since the conditions at this time are not the typical mostly dry trail and your goal is complete the PCT, Mt Whitney is a delay in acheiving your highest goal. The challenge of hiking through the Sierra in high snow conditions is challenge enough.
I think it's ok to stay on PCT... safety should be first 😊. Enjoying the tramily with you
I have done Whitney and watched others do it and/or abandon the attempt. I don’t need to see it, so if you do it, I may skip the episode.
How you doin
Love your videos . Safety is the most important in what ever you do.
Watched some others have a go at Mt Witney but turned back for exactly the reasons you site. The following passes certainly offer challenges enough, plenty of snow and fast running river crossings! Looking forward to sharing the next leg of your adventure. I’m always so pleased when a new video pops up.
B safe out there. Climb what you can and remember there's a long trek ahead. Happy trails Julianne.
Hi Julianne. FYI. No PCT hikers have died on Mt Whitney. They all were coming from different routes doing different adventures. Also the hike to summit Whitney on the JMT and PCT is the exact same route leading up from Crabtree Meadows. Having said that you should always do what is safest and best for you. As you stated, Mt Whitney is not part of the PCT. Enjoying your videos, thank you for bringing us along!!
Safety first. Continuous foot path and the challenge and enjoyment in some order after that. Good luck !!
Just stay safe😊
I am so glad you found your peoples
Is that Frozen at @3:02? I've been wondering if you might bump into each other.
I trust each of you will do what’s best. I’m with you, whatever you choose.
Too bad about Mt. Whitney. You would have crushed it.
