Hey Kraig, I just came back from the Mardi Himal trek too, saw "ghost" too at high camp! He actually followed us to the viewpoint before staying there when we descended.
About the dogs: I heard this story that those are monks, who did not live their life properly and therefore have been send back to earth to guide other people!!! I almost always have a dog with me while trekking in Nepal 😊
We had ghost following us all the way, we had 3 children we us they love her and named her Tofu, my son got very attached to the dog and cried when we had to leave.
You're such a masterful creator Thanks for the video! I truly hope you'll continue with this format - silent hike vid and dedicated 'behind the scenes' vid! Ghost is adorable, his story finally told!
@@BGaud but he had a good home and was in the most beautiful place already? Meeting and leading new people almost every day, being free!. Now he has to live on a leash and do whatever that lady tells him. How is that a better life? Sorry but that's just selfish.
Nepal is amazing and my favorite country I have ever been to and I consider the annapurna ciruit trek one of the highlights of my life...your video brings back alot of memories from what feels like eons(13 years) ago!
You are such a good soul. I really like how respectful you are to all the people, cultures, and lands that you visit. I thoroughly love watching your videos too, but just want you to know that you make the world a better place. Thank You!
watching your videos is like therapy to me. idk how to explain it?? but your silent hikes and videos like these explaining things calms me down and clears my mind. what i’m trying to say is i love you and appreciate all the content you put out.
Thank you very much Kraig.. that you let us participate in your wonderful tours. They have a meditative effect on me. These beauties, the creative work of our Creator, touch me very much.❤🩹
this was the most beautiful hiking video i've watched. I love how you didn't narrate during, made you experience the place more through the video. Loved the after thoughts video, great idea.
I am a hiker and you inspire me to take more chances and add more variety to my hikes! I Love dogs and was so touched by your travel companion for this hike ! Thanks for sharing your wonderful expertise! I'll keep watching them all! 🙏💖✨
Loved it! Thanks. I spend a lot of time in India and I love the street dogs. So amazing that little guy lives the way he does. Thanks for bringing the panoramas, the story, and the little companion.
Really enjoying this guide! Glad you liked this trek, it's really fun. Hoping you'll come back to Nepal to take on many new adventures. I subbed to your channel after watching your Hornstrandir video but only after watching your Mardi silent movie, I realised you're from WFS!! I used to watch WFS all the time and your videos have really helped me a lot. Looking forward to watch more amazing content like this from you! 🙏🏼
Loved your silent travel video. Ghost’s appearance kept me glued to your video. As a dog lover, it just made me cry. Glad to hear more on the hike on this video and hear more about Ghost. I read comments that stated she was taken to US. Some people were not very happy. I’m personally glad the Ghost is in better hand. I’m sure it will be taken better care of and fed we’ll better than the wilderness.
Loved the video Kraig, We stayed at Mountain View hotel as well and literally last month, Dhiraj messaged me that you were there. We will do Himal Trek sometime on our next trip to Nepal. Thanks for sharing your experience.
As a nepali who has already done Mardi Himal Trek, it could not have been presented any better than how you did in these 2 videos. Loved your work and wish i could go back again.
Thank you Kraig, we enjoy your films, and love the way you talk through all of the information about the trek afterwards, very helpful and informative. Keep making films please.
I was a bit confused at when you said "Dal Baat" and then I saw the dish. :-D Lentils and Rice!!! It's a staple across South Asia. Loved the catchphrase "Daal Bhaat power, 24 hour!"
16:07 man a worth video i subscribe love listen your commentary, and explanation yeah, the dog seems like a "lone wolf" who living there... it like guardian on a track... i feel like that when im watching the video
Man, I see your videos here and then and I really enjoy every single one of them. But Mardi Himal is the best I've ever seen... ever! I enjoy hiking a lot thus your videos too. But the bond you made with Ghotst is amazing, although probably because of the simple reason is never the less incredible. Thank you for this, keep it up and cheers from Costa Rica.
Hey Kraig, I loved your hiking film in Nepal. I shared it with a few friends and family - they were super excited about Ghost too! They would scan each scene to see if Ghost was still with you. Looking forward to your next film and life updates. Cheers!
Honestly, I really enjoy your work and effort that you put into your videos. And I am glad that you are here to share the wonderful places around the world in in these corona-times
I did the everest circuit trek to the Base camp over 19 days a few years ago. Hopefully this pandemic will ease soon as I cannot wait to head back to Nepal. The best thing about being in Nepal is it really make you appreciate the simple things in life. A cup of hot bevrage and a hot meal that you take for granted back home after arriving to the teahouse, and it feels like the most amazing reward in the world. Not to mention the shower at the end after being in the wild for a couple of weeks is the most amazing feeling; something that's hard to experience in normal life. Thank you for your awesome contents Kraig! Hopefully this COVID thing is not affecting you and your channel too much .
Excellent video Kraig. Those kinds of tutorials are really great for us to know more about what you do to make this channel happen. Your minimalist style is really inspiring and I like to see that is not much gear needed to create such good content.
I think it helps that you’re so relatable and genuinely a nice guy! I love the silent hikes and anything with dogs people are gonna LOVE! Loving your videos…just found you! Please keep making your videos!
I absolutely love your hiking videos! They are so well made. You're one of my favorite RUclips dudes!!! By the way.. GHOST was such a nice surprise and definitely made this story even better. ❤️
Hey Kraig, just wanted to say I really appreciate these breakdown videos. It's wonderful to see how you approach the planning of your hikes and are making them really accessible for so many others. Love the little insights to your film making process too
Good on you for paying for food at the tea houses. When I was there 1 year earlier, saw young people bringing their own instant noodles and attmepting to order "hot water". The high-altitude tea houses count on the food sales as part of their revenue.
Thank you so much! You have really de-mystified and reduced the intimidation factor of these international hikes for me. It all feels very doable and of course your films are beautiful. I know you are a filmmaker but you have a real knack for explaining things and this guide-type content so keep it going!
Your videos are fantastic mate. So inspiring and helpful as well. I used to be outdoors a lot but have let that side go as I'd not been doing well mentally. It's definitely inspiring to start getting back out there and get back into hiking and photography!
Hey Kraig, Now that i have seen this, watching the Mardi trek vid again, gave me more perspective and the effort you have put to it. Not to mention a huge boost to the local tourism and Nepal tourism as a whole. Really liked the dron footages, i think that's what brought the wider perspective and the Hidden beauty of what is Mardi trek and the treasure of my nation. Keep up the solid work.. thank you and bless you.
Hi Kraig, just discovered your channel. Watched the Mardi Himal video first and I love the silent hiking style. It has a great quality to it and being someone that looks for remote hiking options, it is a great resource. And this video was SUPER helpful as well. Keep it up!
Kraig man I've been following your videos and your tutorials, im glad to you see in my home country, I love your work dude, keep it up! im going back NEPAL 2021. I miss home!
14:12 Those gold color plates are bronze plates which is typical metal used in Nepali kitchen. In ancient times lots of people died of Titanus (bacterial infection) which they believed was caused by iron made kitchenwares. Titanus bacteria survives well in rusty iron but in those days they didnt know about the bacteria. They completely abandoned iron made materials in their kitchen. Thats why they use bronze kitchenware till today.
Kraig, your videos are awesome, I go to Nepal in september (Annapurna Circuit) and really help the information you give and the images you show, thank you! Greetings from Buenos Aires, you definitely have to come to know El Chalten, Bariloche or El Bolsón (El Bolson has the largest network of interconnected mountain refuges in South America)
I loved the original and this descriptive of the original. I really like your film style as well especially that you filmed the tea house and food experience. And lastly... the actual quality of the 4K is terrific. There are many "4K" uploads out there that are really not true 4K but yours was great.
I recently did mardi trek about 2 weeks ago. And yes, as you said it’s pricier as you go up mainly because everything food wise that goes up there are taken by mules which needs fuel as well to reach the destination as there is no other means of transportation. I asked few hotel owners and even the owner of tea house at mardi view point. They use mule to top up their water for teas and coffees up there. But I just love the fact how smoothly everything is run by the people for the people like us. Also a big shout out to all the porters out there where at least 60-70% hikers depends on them and it cannot be done without them. Also your video is one of the reason I did this trek so big ups to you even though I did in October. Much love ❤️
@@DrainArchive yes I did heard about requirement of guide as of now since few solo trekkers has died on a route and been found after several days. I know it sounds stupid as me personally like to hike solo and did solo on mardi as well. Not everyone likes company with them and the government tried to make it mandatory.
this looks absolutely stunning, glad youtube recommended your channel. so many more hiking ideas. This and the MacLehose Trail added to the list. Like these shorter trials where you can spend time doing other holiday stuff.
So awesome to watch your film and hear you talk about this trek. I just got home from living in the Annapurna region and teaching English for a few months and was lucky enough to hike this trail while I was there. It's cool to see how much it's changed with the snow since I did it at the end of November, and from a different trailhead. Ghost also reminded me of all the stray dogs and puppies of Nepal :)
Loved this video! I have been wanting to take bigger trips and never knew where to start. Thank you so much again Kraig for the awesome videos. Can't wait for the next one!
I love your videos. And thank you for not taking Ghost home. He's living his life and is perfectly happy. I love that you do a comment free trek and then follow up with a separate video detailing the trip.. Thank you for sharing this amazing and beautiful world.
Kraig, you have no idea what you're doing for the local economy there. Your productions are absolutely stunning (one that's slowly inspiring me to maybe do a similar style) and will only bring more travelers to the region. Kudos to you :)

Ghost is there to guide trekkers.
Hats off ghost.👍
istighfar bro~ jangan lupa baca ayat kursi
Awww feels :)
@Kraig Adams what's happening to the channel?
@@ferdinandmwangi1356 he was hacked unfortunately.
About the dogs: I heard this story that those are monks, who did not live their life properly and therefore have been send back to earth to guide other people!!! I almost always have a dog with me while trekking in Nepal 😊
This guy said," Daal bhaat power; 24 hour." I don't know you but being a nepali I'm so Proud of you lmaao.
😎😎
We had ghost following us all the way, we had 3 children we us they love her and named her Tofu, my son got very attached to the dog and cried when we had to leave.
You're such a masterful creator
Thanks for the video! I truly hope you'll continue with this format - silent hike vid and dedicated 'behind the scenes' vid! Ghost is adorable, his story finally told!
I'm seriously thinking about flying to Nepal so that I can snuggle with Ghost.
Too bad
Cause someone took ghost to usa

Sad that Ghost is not a guide in Nepal any more.
Lars as long as he has a good home and can be outdoors, I’m ok with that.
@@BGaud but he had a good home and was in the most beautiful place already? Meeting and leading new people almost every day, being free!. Now he has to live on a leash and do whatever that lady tells him. How is that a better life? Sorry but that's just selfish.
No! Ghost was obviously a mountain dog...spiritual in a sense. A famaliar that belonged to no one. How dare someone disrepect him!
24:05 Chonky boy trying his best to walk in the snow.
Nepal is amazing and my favorite country I have ever been to and I consider the annapurna ciruit trek one of the highlights of my life...your video brings back alot of memories from what feels like eons(13 years) ago!
I throughly enjoyed this video! It’s nice to know what you were doing/thinking behind the scenes! Keep up the great work Kraig!
My man Ghost left Kraig for a group of girls. I'm beginning to think Ghost is actually MY spirit animal.
Ghost is a savvy survivor...
I'm happy you recovered your channel, Kraig. You're amazing, guy. Very glad here!
We love the post-hike videos just as much as the silent hike video. So much insight. Thank you for the food shots, info, and prices. Thank you!
I love Ghost! I’m doing Mardi Himal this May, but I’ve sone 4 treks in Nepal already. I really recommend Manaslu Circuit. It’s the real hidden gem!
Wow! The process you put yourself through to make these videos - trapesing back and forth - just so that we can enjoy it, is amazing. Thank you Kraig!
Close up*
"he's a weirdo."
Lost it.
lmao sammeee
I felt so bad just watching it struggle through the snow but it was so funny
My spirit animal
That was so funny haha
You are such a good soul. I really like how respectful you are to all the people, cultures, and lands that you visit. I thoroughly love watching your videos too, but just want you to know that you make the world a better place. Thank You!
ghost represented Nepal the best way!!! thank you GHOST.
Beautiful work
I love your attitude & vibe for what you do & how you do it... including soundtracks! Don't lose sight.
Dude I finally finished the Mae Hong Son loop trip. Used your vid as a Bible haha
Hyuhy gonna do this in July hopefully 👌🏻
@@simon_duba it's an insane trip! Have a blast
So cool.
Kraig, missed your talks after the videos, nice that you took time to do one. All the best!
This was so flipping helpful! Your silent films are breathtaking and so inspiring. Thank you for sharing your art. You're amazing!

Don’t buy boots, man! Btw, your silent hikes are wonderful, very relaxing.
Love the twin video approach for each hike. One for the hike, the views, the experience, the other with the background and FAQs. Thanks!
As a nepali who has already done Mardi Himal Trek, it could not have been presented any better than how you did in these 2 videos. Loved your work and wish i could go back again.

How smooth! both your video and your voice. loved it.
Good on you for paying for food at the tea houses. When I was there 1 year earlier, saw young people bringing their own instant noodles and attmepting to order "hot water". The high-altitude tea houses count on the food sales as part of their revenue.
I laughed so hard at the shot of the second white pup falling through the snow while you were calling him plump.
Im here for the DOG :)
Ghost is the guardian of the trail :D
Maddy Grayson really? That's kinda sad
What an experience !!! With your talk, the video comes to life. And yes, ghost is so lovable !

VERY glad to see you back, I was so worried when the scammers deleted all your videos..
This is beyond beauty to the point I shed a tear while watching this! Thank you, sincerely.
I’m going to Nepal on the 17th Feb. will definitely try to get to this trail. Love your work.. inspires me to do more hike and exploring

Daal is Lentil and Bhaat is Boiled Rice, hence Daal-Bhaat. It's pretty common in South-Asia.
Your videos make me really happy, thank you.

I'm a new folllower from Spain and very impres of te high quality of your videos I feel really in deep in the place thankyou very much for your work
So many uploads lately, thank you Kraig!!
Nepal is one of the most beautiful country in the world💎♥️
Loved this video! I have been wanting to take bigger trips and never knew where to start. Thank you so much again Kraig for the awesome videos. Can't wait for the next one!

Saw Ghost last week! Was on my way to High Camp and he was on his way down with some Swedish guys :D

The video quality was amazing and they way you explained it was too.
We're happy that you have recovered your channel :) we will support you forever ❤
Great video Kraig, and love the way Ghost endend up making new friends.
