Sherpa Brothers and Momo at Mount Elbert
Mount Elbert is Colorado's highest peak and the second highest peak in the lower 48 states with an elevation of 14,439 feet. There are two main routes to the summit, which are the South Mt. Elbert Trail and the North (Main) Mt. Elbert Trail, both being well trodden class one trails. These relatively easy paths to the summit are busy in the summer, attracting all types of hikers and climbers. The U.S. Forest Service has many partners, including Colorado Fourteeners Initiative that help protect and preserve Colorado's 14,000 foot peaks, or "Fourteeners", through active stewardship and public education.
South Elbert Trail 1481 is 5.8 miles long and can be accessed from Shore Pretty Overlook above Twin Lakes on County Road 24. Four-wheel drive vehicles can travel an additional 1.8 miles on Forest Service Road 125.B. South Mt. Elbert Trail forks off the Colorado Trail, which continues to Halfmoon Creek. It is the "easiest" route to Mt. Elbert, but remember, the elevation gain is still 4,800 feet.
North (Main) Elbert Trail 1484 is 4.3 miles long and is located off the Halfmoon Road (FSR 110) southwest of Leadville. The trailhead is just past Elbert Creek Campground. With an elevation gain of 4,400 feet, this trail can be quite strenuous but rewarding.
General Notes:
- Mountain weather is unpredictable and can change quickly. Be prepared with rain gear and extra layers of warm clothing. Always check the weather forecast before heading out.
- Thunderstorms occur frequently in the afternoons, so plan your trip accordingly. Also, keep in mind thunderstorms build rapidly, so keep an eye on the weather and get below timberline at the first sign of a thunderstorm. Follow these Lightening Safety Tips.
- Combat altitude sickness by acclimating gradually and staying hydrated. If symptoms (i.e., severe headache, dizziness, or nausea) do occur, immediately descend to a lower elevation.
- At high altitudes, sunlight is much more intense, and the air is much drier. Wear sunscreen and a hat, and drink plenty of fluids. Always carry a map and compass and know how to use them.

Mount Elbert is 14,438 feet. I have stood on top of Mount Evans,( Mount Blue Skyway) in Colorado at 14,265 feet. Its a good thing I could drive almost all the way to the top hahaha!!!
Hi, I went with the placard on the top, which said 14,439ft, but I have seen 14,438ft and 14,440ft when researching trails to the summit. The drive to Mount Evans and the views are beautiful. Thank you for watching the video and sharing your experience!
tysm! as an anxious traveler this is unbelievably helpful to prepare for trips ❤
@@Gas.Station.Sushi404 You're so welcome! Navigating airports can be stressful for many, so it's great to hear this video helped prepare and make things easier for you. Happy travels on your upcoming trips!
Wonderful! Is there internet coverage at the summit of Mt Elbert?
Hi, yes, there is cell phone coverage at the summit. I heard Verizon and ATT are the only cell service providers there. Happy travels, and good luck with the hike!
Beware of the rip currents
@@tenchskate6066 Thank you for the awareness!
@@SherpaTraveler No problem
Respect thanks for showing it 🙏
Thank you for watching and for your support!
I wish someone would create a video of the PDX-MIA flight on American Airlines because I figure it would be nice for a change.
Thanks for watching! With the start of the nonstop flight between those cities, I'm sure we will see some videos.
Bro the water tower is falling in the texas
@@Yeaboi-ganga I hope not lol.
Flying there next week. I can't believe how nice that airport is.
That's awesome! LaGuardia has really transformed recently. Have a great trip, and enjoy the new amenities!
One more question please: if you leave the key in the car when you leave, should you keep the engine idling or turn it off?
I turn off the car, leave the key on the dash, and let the person checking the vehicle know. Happy travels!
@@SherpaTraveler Okay, thank you. It seems like you left directly. Do you still need to go to the car rental office to complete the return procedure? thanks again
@deeplake1056 I'm happy to assist you with your questions! You don't need to go to the car rental office. If you need a physical or email receipt, wait for the receiving employee to check you in and complete the return. If not, get a thumbs-up from the employee, and don't forget to leave the keys on the dash and head to the flight check-in or gates. I like to take pictures or videos of the odometer, fuel, and the whole car on the return lot showing plates, and you will receive the return receipt in an email. Happy Travels!
“It's very detailed, thank you very much.”@@SherpaTraveler
@@deeplake1056 Happy travels!
Thanks... Very helpful. I didn't rent the car at PDX, but I will return it to the airport. I have been wondering which parking area I should go to for the return; and curious how far the walk is from rental car area to the terminal ...... Until I saw this video.
You're welcome! I'm glad the video was helpful for you. Happy travels!
Is this a sim or real life?
Hi, Thank you for the comment! This is real life, and one can experience it at CR Smith Museum in Fort Worth, Texas.
@@SherpaTraveler It’s a museum? no way
@@case18capcutyes it is haha and the voice is live from ATC at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
@@SherpaTravelerWow I shoudl visit
@@maskidroav Yes, you will love it! Also, they have a DC-3 you can walk inside and much more to see and enjoy. ua-cam.com/users/shortsi_80AVFsBIo?feature=share
Qatar stopped going here to change routes to go to New York I hate Qatar so much dude the used to go here a lot now we’re stuck with only a British airways a350 goes here
Hi, thanks for your comment. I heard the same a few years back that American Airlines swapped their JFK to Doha route with Qatar Airways PHL to Doha. I am still mad at Qatar Airways. They did not allow me to take a hand carry and backpack, and I have used them multiple times and never had that issue. I think British Airways is good, but more options would be better.
@@SherpaTraveler agreed
Idk why but I always loved seeing airports I live in Portland and I’m going on a vacation the day the new terminal opens (Aug 14) thanks for posting this!
@@genosmith161 Thanks for watching! Airports have such a unique vibe, and I enjoy seeing them too. How exciting that you are traveling on the day the new terminal opens! I hope you have a fantastic vacation and enjoy the new terminal. Happy travels!
This airport is horrible for rental cars. They used to shuttle you. Now they make you walk.
It was a long walk to the rental car. I hope they bring the shuttle back again.
Arriving from the east over the Sierras. Did it dozens of times when I worked there
@@Hiwaymn Thanks for sharing your experience! The views over the Sierras are always stunning. It's incredible to think about how many times you've taken that approach. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
U passed my house could have caught you above my house!
Wow, that's awesome! Hope to catch you next time 😊✈️
@@SherpaTraveler yes!
The scrambled eggs were the best ones I've ever had. They were scrambled softly but it was more than just eggs & butter. Please tell me the secret ingredient ...
@@shereesimpson9039 The breakfast was delicious, and I would love to know the secret ingredient for scrambled eggs 😆
well you arrives stop enter how get to ticket or tag card? and when pick up after out pay cash or else?
You can use the toll or ticket lane when you enter DFW airport. If you have an NTTA toll tag, use the toll lane to enter and exit, and your toll account will be charged the amount. For tickets, use the tickets lane to enter and when exiting use cash or credit lanes to pay the balance on the ticket. I hope this helps. Happy travels!
Where are all the fish.. ooh one ray..
I thought the same! We did see some fish, but not as many as we were expecting. Before snorkeling, we went on a stingray excursion and saw many stingrays closer to the shore!
I drove from Pensacola to Destin but some how true the city..Only maybe 3-4 miles i have been driving in the highway . That city ride is much better, actually its so beautiful.
It's a beautiful ride. I'm glad you could experience it, and thank you for sharing!
This is an amazing place to visit. Standing here gave me goosebumps. Let's hope the great men carved from these rocks can continue to look out onto a free, democratic land.
It is indeed a powerful experience! The monument captures the grandeur of American history and symbolizes the enduring ideals of freedom and democracy. Standing in front, one can feel inspired and hopeful for the future of our nation.
Mount Rushmore should not even exist! Washington and Jefferson, slave owners carved on a sacred mountain on Native land without permission from Native American tribal leaders. Have you no shame America?
Thank you for your comment. It highlights the need for an ongoing dialogue about how we honor our past and respect the cultures and histories of all people.
The commentary😂
😂
They have confirmed the rumors. That a well known collation of artist and sculptor . Will start working on the outcropping to the left side of the monument in early spring oof 2025 . Of President Trump ! For Saving America against the democratic control of the Democratic Party. The Greatest President ever since sliced bread.
Thanks for watching and sharing the plan details!
Thanks for sharing. Very helpful
You're welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful.
hi is this hindu meal or asian vegetarian?
Hi, it's a Hindu meal. Happy Travels!
Nice

The plane with the most not landing in the last year
Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment ❤
Interesting perspective however I don’t know how anyone chose to be driving if they didn’t need to during this spectacular phenomenon
Hi, it could be various reasons, but safety should always be a priority, especially during extraordinary events like a total solar eclipse. Planning ahead and ensuring everyone's well-being while enjoying such remarkable natural occurrences is essential.
At 3:11, street lights start to come on. I see a few cars on the shoulders with blinkers, during totality, despite signs admonishing such stopping, e.g. at 8:57
Hi, It's important to heed traffic signs and regulations, especially during events like a solar eclipse when visibility may be reduced. Safety should always be a top priority for everyone involved.
I drove by there the other day. Maybe change background song to Bruce Springsteen’s Cadillac Ranch?
Hey, thanks for dropping by and sharing your thoughts! Unfortunately, once a video is posted on UA-cam, there's no option to change the background song. But I'll keep your feedback in mind for future uploads! Thanks for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts! 🙌🎵
Beautiful landing in a wonderful plane!
I agree that the 757 is an excellent plane to fly in!
what time of the year did you hike this?
Hi! I trekked to this stunning Everest viewpoint during the last week of November. The crisp air, clear skies, and snowy peaks made it an unforgettable adventure! Definitely recommend experiencing it during that time or earlier if you can. Happy travels!
Which camera are you using? It’s a great work.
Thanks for the compliment! I use a GoPro camera for my UA-cam videos. It's great for capturing all the action and getting those epic shots.
awesome view
Thanks so much! It truly was breathtaking up there. So glad I could share this epic adventure with you all. Remember, never stop chasing those amazing views! 🏔️ #Everest #AdventureGoal
DFW - My favorite airport. Thanks!
DFW is definitely a hub of excitement and efficiency! Glad you enjoy it as much as I do. Safe travels, and may your layovers be short and your connections seamless! ✈️ #DFW
Please I need to know the shuttle busses schedule. This from the rent a car center right?
Hi, the video is from Rent-A-Car Center to the Airport. Shuttles depart from the Rent-A-Car Center to the Airport approximately every 15 minutes. They have different shuttles for different terminals. I hope this helps, Happy Travels! Here is the link to the airport website www.harryreidairport.com/Transportation/RentalCars
The sun is going down
Yes, it was not a good day to fly due to weather and we had turbulence throughout our short flight to Narita.
Takeoff seoul at afternoon
I love Seoul!
Which meal was it that you got? Was this one the frittata?
Hi, it was a morning flight, and I got the delicious Breakfast Enchiladas. Happy travels!
@@SherpaTraveler oh that's fabulous, we fly out in April and one of our options was a frittata so I was curious as to what that entire meal look like, the other one is a salmon platter which is what we chose for our trip. I hope that you had an amazing trip and thank you for sharing!
It was an excellent short flight from Los Angeles to Dallas. My overnight flight from Tokyo before this flight offered an entire menu with beautiful choices and food. A salmon platter sounds yummy, and I would have also chosen the same. Enjoy your travels!
Beautiful… keep it up
Thank you for your love and support!
Thank you friend. This video was very helpful for a first time traveler to Miami airport.

Hello! Thank you so much for share this nice vídeo. I want to visit Lukla Next year 2024 from Spain. In fact I,m search information as prices of fly from Spain to Kathmandu and to Lukla, where sleep, etc
Hi, thank you for liking the video and for the question. For tickets to Kathmandu, you can check the prices and book using any travel website. As for the flight to Lukla, it is fixed price, and you can book it after you arrive in Kathmandu through travel/ticket offices, or your hotel can help you get the ticket. If arriving at the busy season, then I would book the Lukla flight in advance, same with accommodations. If it's a busy season, book accommodations early. As for food, we ate where we stayed for the night. If you are looking to hire a guide, then they can assist you with Lukla flight, accommodations & food, trekking schedule, and details on the trekking seasons. I hope this answers your question, and enjoy your travel to Nepal and Lukla.
@@SherpaTraveler thank you so much for your complet answer. Regards!
You're so welcome!
Great video! Can't wait to visit someday!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. I hope you will be able to visit soon.
