- The Sierra High Route - Day 1 - Sept 17 2018
We started this Amazing adventure from the Onion Valley Trailhead over Kearsarge Pass and hiked over to The Copper Creek Trail at Roads End which is the beginning of the Sierra High Route and Ends at Twin Lakes Resort, Mono Village, We Hiked over 240 Miles on this Route, Me and 2 Friends hiked a big portion of The SHR in 2017 but didn't spend nearly the time I would have liked to in such amazing places so this time I took twice as long and spent the time to smell all the flowers.
This Route had the most Incredible landscapes I've ever seen in my life and I'm glad I got to share the experience with Mary Poppins,
So Stick around for yet another Adventure.
Happy Trails Everyone.

4K Sony Action Cam FDR X3000 for my video and for my stills I was using my Sony a6000.
They both performed really well!

Very nice! Did Onion Valley to South Lake fifty years ago this summer. The Eastern Sierra are magical! Thanks!
I did this back in '79 when I was 14. We camped at the lake just before the pass and in the morning I was determined to be the first one up on the pass :P It was mid-July and very deep snow all the way up the pass. 10 days and 54 mile loop. Most awesome thing I have done in my life. I am now 54 and disabled but it is calling me back!!
Kearsarge was my first backpacking trip in I think 1977 or 78 give or take a year. Look forward to following this trip of yours. I love the High Sierra.
A lot of work, hot weather. Good job!
Thanks enjoyed as always
In person the pass is majestic!
It Sure is!! The entire hike from The Bishop Pass Trailhead to Bishop Pass is absolutely amazing, especially once the Aspens start turning yellow and Orange.
Gorgeous
Was happy to see a new post. What beautiful lakes. Another wonderful hike with Mary Poppins
This will be a 30 day series and it gets crazy beautiful!!

Yay! Happy to see you both back out on the trail! The scenery is stunning and your camerawork is amazing! Happy trails!
Thanks Barb.
Supper ! First time I have heard in eons. That is always what a call the evening meal. I guess just depends on the custom where you might be from. 😀
Love all your videos, never seen anyone enjoying hiking on the trial so much like you do.
Nothing but good times.
Kearsarge is one of my favs - brought back good memories of overnights. Really am enjoying your videos, and loved your PCT series. Keep up the good work! The smiles at the top are genuine!
Thanks Sheety33, Kearsarge Pass is one of my favorite places to hike forsure! Love this trip!
Your trips are so damn good! One amazing adventure after another. Perfect timing as I was just researching the SHR. Glad all went smoothly from flying down and getting in your first day on trail.
Love that trail!
We were up Kearsarge in Sept of 2017 and can’t wait to go back and do the whole high route.
Love your videos.
Thanks Kelli
Yay! What a great surprise to see a new adventure up! Nice to see Poppins again too :) I’m glad you two got to enjoy it together. Im so excited there are more videos to look forward too! Thank you!!
Thanks Sally, Damn I loved this trip!!

Thanks, Cheers.
Just subbed yesterday, so excited to see this hike through, I'm planning on doing it next year!
It will kick your butt but it's worth it all!
Really looking forward to this series! I know you spent a lot of extra effort in getting some great shots!
Thanks Man, I stepped my game up in this series with trying to get as many great shots as possible.
Wasn’t expecting a new adventure so soon. Bet it felt great to be back! I’m very much looking forward to the rest of this series! Such a majestic area, words & photos hardly do it justice. Take care brother.
This hike is from Last Year, This Day was Sept 17 2018.Cheers
Really beautiful scenery...thankyou for sharing!! It's great to see you guys out on the trails again...love following your journeys!
Thanks Lynette. Loved this hike so much!!
I'm going to add it to my list of hikes to do...@@HurlgoatHiker
Hi, Your videos of trips in the Sierra are very interesting to me because I visited many of the same remote basins and crossed the same foot paths back in the 1960s when I was younger. One difference between backpacking now and how it was then is the amount of people you now meet on the trail and at campsites. I wondered how you do the trail footage where you walk to or away from the camera when you are alone. You must spend a lot of time back-tracking to set or pickup your camera setup. Your films are really good chronicles of your trips.
Hey... that’s Canadian, right? I absolutely love your videos and Poppins included. Such a positive vibe of how y’all (southern vernacular) met! Brings reality to the human relational thing. Keep tripping!
yeeee buddy! I was waiting for this series
It's gets surreal at day 5-6, views are off the charts!!
@@HurlgoatHiker i live in California, I spend a lot of time peak bagging in the Sierra Nevada but never hike long distances at a time like SHR. You lucky man to get to do it twice. But thank you for sharing, it's a ton of work and I salute you sir for doing it!
@@editz26smithoni69 Mile for Mile, The Sierra High Route is about as good as it gets and as tough as it was I think i'd do it yet again!
Happy Hiking My Friend,
Been waiting for this one to come out. I know it must be a lot of work editing. I was reading Poppin's blog in the meantime which is very enjoyable to read. Bet you two have all your gear dialed- in long ago. I still have to go out on some trips to dial my new gear in. That sign is so cool at 6:08 :p
Happy Trails Diego.
Hello my outdoors friend, thank you for sharing another awesome video. Your Sony camera performed extremely well. The Eastern Sierras has some of the most picturesque areas in the world. You take care out there. The very best of good health and safety to you. 🤗
Thanks Ronald
Beautiful scenery. What do,you use for a camera? Oh, I guess I should have read the credits. Love this.
Been waiting for this while you were still releasing the PCT videos . After 10 days during the PCT wasn't enough so you come back for 30 days. The first time ,10 days of food wasn't enough , so how much are you carrying. After waiting so long I am know more curious about your move across Canada to Vancouver Island , now roughly 400 miles from me, yeah. If you are planning to release on Wednesday , I'll miss the next one cause of you . After your 35 days here you showed me what I missed here so 2 days after my 67 bd which is the 15 I will be going to Packwood to fish and also try to make it to Elk Pass on the PCT if their isn't too much snow in the G.R. Thank you brother.
awesome
Yay! The SHR. Yes, in 2017 I think you had to go through it faster than you may have liked. (That's just my impression. 😊). Looks like fantastic weather again.
Yes last time was way to fast for me in such an amazing place!!
This time we really do take our time and enjoy it all!
Happy Trails
Another beautiful landscape and that trout nice, I noticed Mary Poppins has strong beautiful legs, must be all the hiking lol. Thank you again for showing us how beautiful nature is.👍😊
👌👌👌
love this area - in fact so much Roxana and i are going back over Kearsarge for our second trip, we have permits for July.... we won't make it nearly as far as you though, we're just going for a few nights. What is the date on this?? cant tell if it is spring or fall but im guessing it is not summer because wow there are no people!! that area is a madhouse in summer, i think i saw one other person in this vid and that's it.. Super! ... you know i Love that you show that little sign about leaving no trace, thanks... glad they remind people to pack out the TP (it always ends up on the trail no matter how deep it is buried) and to rinse off before going swimming... ive had to Not swim because i realized i had just put on bug spray... those little lakes can be polluted very quickly... AWESOME you all got to take it slow and really enjoy the scenery this time around. great campsite, we might have to try and score that one... looking forward to the rest of the series!
This day was September 17th 2018, Happy Trails to you both.
wow that's still pretty early really nice you had low crowds
@@potatothorn There was 2 sections that we didn't see any one else for 6 days straight. Now that's my kinda hiking!
Awesome!!
When did you do this hike? The boulder that you show just after you mentioned Gilbert Lake is where I pitched my tent when I came back in Sept 2017 to finish the JMT for my 68th birthday. I started late in the day and figured that I needed an acclimation stop (plus, I hike very very slowly.) I camped the 2nd night at Kearsarge Lakes. Happy Trails.
This day was Sept 17th 2018, love this area!
Good for you Linda!! I will be 54 in 2020 and have been recovering from a central nervous system injury these past 4 years. I want so badly to do this hike again like I did as a kid. You give me hope!!
Hey been meaning to ask on your 4 day solo kayaking trip in Algonquin Park 2 years ago what model kayak did you use?...Thanks for any info.
Sorry I don't know the model it is, it was my brothers kayak I just borrowed.
Great Video. When was this? I was there part of my Nobo JMT September 2018. Tough fishing for me at Kersarge Lakes. But great at Bullfrog. Posted vids on my channel about fishing the JMT. Best lures were the super duper & kastmaster. Another great video thanks.
This day was September 17th 2018.
@@HurlgoatHiker Wow. Was there on the 12th. Dam. Would have loved to run into you guys. No shit it was Your JMT through hike that was a kick in my but to do it. I couldn't get the lottery so had to go Nobo.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏼
What part of the kearsage lakes did you fish that first night?
The farthest one, but I've had luck in all of them.
What dates were you on this hike?
This day was September 17th 2018, and was on trail for around 30 days.
Great time of the year. Sounds like this winter the snow is as heavily as two years ago. Just announced today that the high Sierra camps won’t open this year
@@davidbeach6947 Does this include the camps along the High Sierra Loop Trail in Yosemite? Can you point me to the site that posted this info?
I believe it does. Hiking buddy told me. Getting website
It’s the Yosemite national park Facebook page
