Just watched this one and another one of yours..... It's Friday, I'm fucked off with the world and had enough. But after watching this and your video from couple years ago on the biggest decision of your life..... I've found myself smiling, settled, remembering that same desire of yours to get out and see the world. The visuals, the calm music, the lack of voice - over.....I can't tell you how therapeutic your videos are.
@@JoshCarrHikes hey josh. Anytime. I just watched another (dwellingup), I used to summer down there as a kid before moving to the UK. Memories! Really great escape when we are stuck in the house here in the uk. Love it.
We went to Dwellingup for a school trip as well although I can barely remember it. Such a nice place though would love to go back and spend more time around there. Hope things ease up a bit over there for you 👍
This evokes a lot of emotions. I lost my Dad last year. He loved camping like his soul was attached to the outback. So, I would love to do something like this. I am definitely not as skilled as my old man in regards to this kind of thing but I'd love to try. Thanks Josh for showing, clarifying and visualising something that a lot of us don't get to see... your cinematic sequences are awesome !!
@@JoshCarrHikes literally just said that to your reply 5mins ago lol, better ones on the west coast mate franklin river gordon national park check that area out!
Beautifully done. And thanks for the wrap-up at the end. I've done a bit of hiking, but the body complains a fair bit these days 😂. I climbed Bluff Knoll a couple of years back-that in itself is a solid climb. Reminded me somewhat of St Mary's Peak here in SA. Look forward to seeing more.
Josh, what a stunning adventure and so majestically filmed .... thank you so much for battling across the ridge (the sketchy bits! eeeek!) and posting. Now I definitely have to travel to WA (whenever Sydney can come out of lockdown) to do Stirling Ridge, and the Purnululu trek that you also filmed. You're a champ - keep it up, we love your work!
@@rebeccamcloughlin3596Haha you can keep the cold!! It was a min of 6 and max of 14 today here and I swear my fingers are about to drop off. Bring back Summer already I say!
This is awesome man. And thanks for the commentary at the end. Didn't even know about this hike, so thanks for making it known. This is one to add to the list.
Wow! Very nice! It's like camping with you and it's so much fun! The sound of nature is very nice! I can't go on a trip right now, so watching this video made me feel happy! Thank you🤗💕
I love your videos! Your camera shots and the music together, really capture and focus on the beauty of nature, which I appreciate a lot. They are so relaxing to watch. Thank you. I have just recently become interested in hiking, and your videos definitely motivate me to get out there and experience nature even more.
It’s possible and has been done many times before but you’d have to be very fit and know where the track ventures. The highly unpredictable weather would only add to the difficulty too
Great as always, my friend! The camp and nature is, amazing. Enjoy watching how you cook this delicious meals. And the surrounding nature is amazing. Cheers from Russia, bro, and welcome to my channel about Russian bushcraft tips! Regards, Yuriy!
Western Arthur’s is the one trail in Aus I’m a bit iffy about tackling solo. I’ve heard it’s similar in difficulty to the Stirling Ridge Walk which makes me a tad nervous given the length of it. Super keen to give it a go though, just maybe once I’ve got a few more difficult hikes under my belt 😅
Epic . 11:42 looks correct path, quite sketchy if you are hiking on your own, I'd guess it was difficult to recover camera. A rope and a friend to lower or haul pack is useful in those spots. 11.54 you are certainly breaking new ground there. Glad you had favourable weather to keep you company.
Cheers Jamie! Funny you say that, I actually thought I was offtrail at 11:42 and ontrail at 11:54! At 11:54 there was actually a bunch of little cairns that someone had placed all along there. Who knows 😂 I feel like I need to redo it just to figure out the actual track!
Awesome once again mate! Looks epics! Tackling this on Thursday so you’ve got me even more excited! Except now I have to compete with your video and not sure I’ll get even close to making one as good as yours😅
Cheers Tyson! It’s an absolute pearler of a hike, you’ll have a ball of a time. Friendly competition is healthy 😉 keen to seen how your experience pans out
Simply spectacular Josh, one of the best in Australia 👌 an epic adventure to be sure 🙏well done bloke, not many make it through the first time. Very wise words, pick your weather window and consider your experience!
I was pretty fortunate the weather didn't get worse. I can't imagine how much more difficult & dangerous it would have been going throw the arrows section while it's raining.
Cheers Joey! The Stirling Ridge Retreat offer a shuttle service. Runs 7 days a week from sunrise to sunset. $80 to be dropped off/picked up at Ellen Peak side & $20 to be dropped off/picked up at Bluff Knoll carpark
Great video and narration mate. Have climbed Bluff Knoll in September 2019, but on a uncharacteristically hot day with constant NE winds. So unfortunately missed out on the fog and cold weather that I was hoping to experience. On a side note, good to see that the Stirling Ranges has recovered quite well from the devastating bush fires last year. It looked quite green and nice. Are there still any signs of the bushfire? Oh and how is the new Bluff Knoll hiking track?
Thanks Shounak! That’s a bit of a bugger but seems to be very much a luck game whether you get the fog & clouds rolling over the ranges. It’s a hell of lot greener now than a few months ago, but it’s still pretty evident a fire ripped through the area. Certain parts were a lot worse than others but was still good to see it recovering. Bluff Knoll track is great, they’ve done a great job of it. To be honest I didn’t really notice much difference though to when it ~3 years ago
How did you navigate that track? It certainly didn't look like a marked trail to me. Also, I'm hoping you'll do a portion of the Larapinta Trail one day. I'll be happy to provide ground support.
Just through the AllTrails app. Probably wasn't the wisest move for a trail like this one but it did the job. Larapinta is in the works, I actually booked the track support earlier today 😅
7:21 deadset climbed up that hill came back to get camera kudos to you mate I thought my local mate who has made 3k subbs in 1 year does good nah mate this guy here goes full lengths to edit like a pro I just uploaded a over night hike a said I cbf with that shit but in the end it pays off done well mate love from Hobart
@@JoshCarrHikes yeah hes up north not south like me, only been emailing him for a couple of months now for a tassie colab video, even with levi, then jane 2.0 came out im like ok then lmfao.....sent me a few track notes on what hes done beside the kayak adventures and the new video of stannards grave .....
Hey Josh, great video as usual. How do you like the Atlas Adventure as someone who’s used it extensively? It looks pretty huge, do you find it to be overkill or perfect size for multi day hikes with some camera gear as well? Have you been able to use it as carry on or do you have to check it while flying. Thanks for your help
I’m a big fan, it’s pretty hard to fault really. If I had to pick on something it would the weight as it’s a pretty hefty pack. But as someone’s that’s into the outdoors and videography/photography it’s near-on a perfect bag. Keeps all the camera gear safe whilst also having enough room to carry the hiking essentials. I haven’t used it as carry on before but that’s meant to be one their biggest selling points
No ego
Just pure honesty
Great bloke 🇦🇺🫶🏼

Anyone else here from Reddit? Epic mate, great vid 🤘
Reddit for the win 👊 Cheers mate
I thoroughly enjoy how cinematic your videos are.
Cheers Dan!
The gift of inspiration a beautiful one, thank you. Boots dusted, pack hefted and path trod.
This deserves thousands more views and likes. What a stunning piece of cinema. I'm an immediate fan.
Thanks Dan, much appreciated means a lot!

Sorry to hear, I couldn’t imagine going through that. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and sounds like it brought back some good memories
On top of the world! Awesome video, thank you for sharing Josh.
video really gave me some The Long Dark vibes. great stuff man.
by the way, learned somethin with that gas trick to dry out the fire, great to know for wet weather.
how good is a nice dry cave in that kind of weather. Great vid cheers mate
Pretty hard to beat, cheers Kate!
Great views like south coast track done well mate
Can’t wait to knock the South Coast out
@@JoshCarrHikes literally just said that to your reply 5mins ago lol, better ones on the west coast mate franklin river gordon national park check that area out!

I loved the music accompanying your movie. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks Julia!
Mate the vid is world class,
Hey Josh! Great video, very inspiring. Where was the cave you stayed the night? Was it First Arrow?
Nice editing
Cheers!
this is a lovely video you put togeather

Wow, great video

So beautiful out there!
Absolutely!
What a great walk and video Josh!! Really enjoyed watching. Awesome drone work.
Thanks Bec!! Hope it hasn’t been too cold for you in Tassie!
@@JoshCarrHikes haha!! Starting to become colder. Love cold...perfect walking weather! Love snow walking!
@@rebeccamcloughlin3596Haha you can keep the cold!! It was a min of 6 and max of 14 today here and I swear my fingers are about to drop off. Bring back Summer already I say!
Haha!!!!! Down to 0 degree overnight.. do look forward to beach weather though..look forward to your next video.
0 degrees! Yeah nah, no thanks haha I’ll take beach weather over the cold any day of the week 😂
Watching in 2024. Nice vid. What is the music please? Good sounds
Unreal video hike and video mate, loved that one. I'm doing my first solo overnighter soon, watching these videos get me more excited ha ha
Awesome dude, hope it goes well for you!
This is awesome man. And thanks for the commentary at the end. Didn't even know about this hike, so thanks for making it known. This is one to add to the list.
I had no idea for the longest time too. Seems they don’t like advertising it due to the risks. Stunning hike though if you’re up for a challenge
I really like your style of video. Its story telling.
Thanks mate
Inspired by Kraig Adam’s at all? Curious
Wow! Very nice! It's like camping with you and it's so much fun! The sound of nature is very nice! I can't go on a trip right now, so watching this video made me feel happy! Thank you🤗💕

Glad you’re enjoying the vids! Welcome to the slippery slope of hiking 😁
Nice one Josh! Really keen on doing the Stirling Range Ridge walk myself - hopefully soon 🤞
Cheers Aaron, you'll love it hey. You'll be right in your element!
My brother and I will be there in about 10 days! Looking forward to hitting this trail again - been way too long!
Awesome dude, enjoy!
Amazing Josh! Love your filming and adventures!
Thanks Tamina!!
Great video as usual. One of my favorites so far.
Cheers Mike!
Wow Josh. This video is impressive. Well done. I may be getting too old for this one… Is it possible to do part of it as a big day walk?
It’s possible and has been done many times before but you’d have to be very fit and know where the track ventures. The highly unpredictable weather would only add to the difficulty too
What a special place. Great work Josh!
Very special, one of my favourite hikes. Thanks Megan!
Absolutely stunning views and excellent video!
Epic! I would love to go on a hike like that.
Mate, As always an excellent video. The Camera Gear links seem to be broken :(
Cheers mate. Not sure what was happening there, should be all fixed now though!
Great as always, my friend! The camp and nature is, amazing. Enjoy watching how you cook this delicious meals. And the surrounding nature is amazing. Cheers from Russia, bro, and welcome to my channel about Russian bushcraft tips! Regards, Yuriy!
Thanks mate, I’d reckon Russian bush craft would be a tad different to here
Again, great vid Josh. Would love to see what you’d make on the Western Arthur’s down here in Tassie. 👍

@@JoshCarrHikes oh brilliant! Thanks mate big help!!
Great vid, thanks for sharing. Couple of Questions, when did you do this hike and on the first day what time did you start off.
Finished on 1st of May. From memory I think I started about 8 in the morning
Great video Josh. Could you possibly share the route that you took on a map e.g. Strava?
Thanks Ian. Checkout the Alltrails link in the video description, it shows exactly where I went

Hi Josh, I'm wondering how you arrange transport to places like this, if you are not hiring a car?

must have done a lot of walking and climbing back to retrieve your camera
