    I've watched many of your videos in preparation for my trip to Glacier, and they really helped me pick the best trails!
    I actually did this same hike two days after you did. What an incredible hike... probably the most epic hike of my life. We DID see the grizzly by Oldman Lake, maybe 20 yards from the trail. Scary! Luckily he had zero interest in passing hikers. We saw the same moose near Pray Lake in the morning.
    I had an amazing day doing this hike, but my knees still haven't forgiven me for that long, steep, descent down Bighorn Valley. Thanks for making these fantastic videos!

      Glad they helped you. This one is a great hike for sure. Glad you were able to do it - keep enjoying the trails.

    I am unable to fully express how much I have enjoyed your channel showcasing the trails of Glacier National Park. What a great way to experience this beauty from the comfort of your home! This 72 year old hiker really appreciates the fact that you are so willing to hike holding that camera boom on that trail! All I can say is thank you so much. God bless you booth Amen!

    Videos and pictures do not do justice for anything in nature, but what an excellent video! My favorite day hike of all time

      I agree. You just cannot capture it all or the feeling of it when you are there. Probably our favorite day hike as well. Thank you and Montana cheers!

    Whoa - 19 miles...too much for me in one day. I'm glad you did it for us to watch though. Just gorgeous scenery. Glad the grizzers left you alone.

    • @nolanventures473

      Yes…we successfully made it with no grizz encounters.

      Conditions were impeccable; as if the colder temps cleared the air quality even more making it pretty awesome 👍⛰ The group hiking behind us caught sight of a grizzly feeding on the huckleberries by Oldman Lake. Hiking gods were in our favor this day. Thank you!!

    What a great video of this hike. I’ve seen other videos and they just don’t capture it as well as you have here. Let’er Buck! 🤠

    Done this hikes 3 times this year. You do a fabulous job of making this hike so real for everyone. Thank you. Heading back to Glacier Tuesday. Sad to see the season drawing to a close.

      Hiking season changes to snowshoe and cross country ski season soon. Hope we have more snow this year. Enjoy the wilds!

    We hiked the Upper Two Medicine Lake Trail in early September and were so blown away by the beauty that we are considering doing the Pitamakan Dawson Loop one day. I did some research after my vacation and came across your great video - awesome! Wonderful shots. May I ask what video equipment you used to film it?

    • @nolanventures473

      Pitamakan / Dawson loop is one of our favorite day hikes - we have done it several times. On this video we exclusively used a GoPro 12 for all footage. We started with the GoPro 7 black several years ago and have also used the 11 and now the 12. Small, light, waterproof, shockproof, good in all ways. The only drawback to the GoPro is the inability to zoom in on much of anything. Other than that, I think it’s the way to go for hiking and outdoor stuff. Montana cheers and enjoy the wilds!

    Any significant snows yet? I see some dusting on the peaks.

    • @nolanventures473
      @nolanventures473  3 місяці тому +2

      Just a bit of snow on the peaks. Very small amounts of snow/ice in some of the shady spots on the continental divide.
