    The Flat Tops is my favorite place for hiking and back country adventures (I live in Craig). I really enjoyed this video! Thank you.

      Def a blind spot in the state for me but will have to get back there soon, so stunning especially with the flowers popping!

    I have been to the Devil's Causeway. 12 years ago. Good to see a video on the place.

    I hiked up to the causeway years ago, got partway across and seized up. I basically crawled off of it. 😂 But I’m from Ohio and live in the flatlands, so I was more than a little out of my element. Great to see it again!

    That looks dope! I love the steamboat area. I did the Four Pass loop a couple years ago and that was incredible. You should check out the Lost Creek Wilderness loop, it’s a pretty intense backpacking loop near FairPlay.

      I actually just ran this a few weeks ago, just didn't film. TOUGH day out there.

      @@TheVirtualSherpa Ya the part where you climb through the canyon was tough, especially with a backpacking bag. Definitely not a walk in the park haha, 100% worth it though.

    Looks like a super sick loop. Do you have any favorites closer to the front range that are runnable like this? More so near Boulder, Nederland, Estes, etc area??

    Exactly when in July was this?
    Backpacking in this area next week and seemed like you ran into pretty little snow!

    Drone shots in the beginning are great. Why no drone shots of you on the causeway?

    Nice video. I dont think I can cross the Devils Causeway. A little too much exposure for me. I love the Flattops. Some good backpacking to fishing lakes up there.

    • @TheVirtualSherpa
      @TheVirtualSherpa  23 дні тому +1

      Fishing must be amazing up there with all the water
