I want that app. Crazy, we just did Ramona Falls just a couple weeks ago. Small world. That river crossing was fun, we just butt scooted across the fallen tree.
@@kennethstarr5545 You are welcome to say it however you like but most Oregonian's are going to correct you and then mad trash talk you later on (whether you live in PNW or not). Also, languages change and adapt over time as well as pronunciation. This is how it is said now, so that IS how it is said regardless of OG pronunciation from Thomas Jefferson.
It was nice running into you guys while I was on a SAR mission. The 7 people we rescued were ok, they just had to spend an unexpected cold night in the woods. Too bad you didn't make it to the Bald Mountain overlook, it definitely would have made a good thumbnail for your video!
I was wondering that. I am from BC, Canada and this is like our normal here. Considering it's so close, it couldn't be that different from here. oO wet butt is also pretty standard. lol
Dan, another amazing video. Welcome to Oregon. I was cringing for a moment when you were saying the state name...but will not hold it against you. Hope you had an incredible time. I love when people can see the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Cheers! "I want this app"
Watched this video when it was 1st released little over a year ago, and put it on the "to do" list. Last weekend my wife and I day hiked the mirror lake/T,D&H trail and we were also blown away by the crystal clear 360 view of not only Hood, but also Adams, Rainier, St Helens and Jefferson. That rock slide area was way more sketchy than it looked , but worth the scramble. Also had OnX in my pocket as well and wont go without it. Thank you for the inspiration for what was an incredible day.
Dan, I broke my ankle last month on trail and your countdown to accident seriously drove up my anxiety! Take your pants to a seamstress or tailor and have them do surgery. You will get many more miles out of those trousers!
Small hack i just thought of for your befree strap clip. If you drill a hole in the bottom of the handle and attach a stretchy rope loop, you could attach it to your strap like those sunglasses option that some backpacks come with. Thought of it when your bottle dropped. Might not be needed but could be a decent “hack”
I love how excited you get when you see all the mountains! I used to live in Chicago and every time I came West I got the same way. Now that I live in CO I get to enjoy the views every weekend. I'm always still in awe...I just think my reactions are more subdued now. You gotta get out of the Midwest! Lol
I'm planning to move to Colorado for this reason exactly. I love Michigan and it is beautiful. Just no mountains. Green tunnel hikes get to be repetitive.
Planning a 4-day thru hike of this trail for the first week of September and just got done planning my route in OnX! Going to run it and Gaia every other day and see which one I like better.
I thought the thumbnail should've been Dan's happy face when seeing the mountains. Lived in Oregon my whole life and I love our mountains, trees, rivers and lakes. The animals and birds are awesome. Please people no more forest fires. Please
Dan, these two hikes to Ramona falls and Mirror Lake/ Tom Dick and Harry are a couple of my family's favorites. We hike them every year. Glad you enjoyed your trip to Oregon and hope you come back to explore some more amazing views. Also thanks to you, I am a subscriber of OnX!
Haha Ramona Falls trail! Just hiked that a couple weeks ago! Looks like you were there around the same time when the people got lost between Top Spur and Ramona.
I love OnX Hunt. I was stoked on OnX Backcountry until I realized they didn’t include the trail distances they have in OnX Hunt (I.e. showing the distance between two trail markers). If they can bring those over, I’ll be all in.
@@chrisz.9974 Yes. I’ve used OnX Hunt for backpacking many times…but there are now some features in Backcountry that Hunt doesn’t have (the layers in Backcountry seem to lend themselves to hiking, discovering trails rather than hunting…it just seems more purpose built). But not including distances from one trail junction to another seems like a big miss (especially if they already have it in their other product). I’m assuming they’ll add it at some point in their product roadmap, so I’m not too worried. For now I’ll just use a combo of both.
I encountered similar blowdown on a hike I did in June up in Idaho. It's rough for sure. I've been all those places in Oregon. Hope you had a good time.
Timberline trail is by far my favorite place to backpack. I've done the loop multiple times. If you haven't done the whole trail, you're seriously missing out. I'm going to be doing it again in a few months, it's become an annual tradition for me.
@@Renegade-py6pc I'm jealous that you get to experience it for the first time. Although, no matter how many times I go out there, it's just as magical. Enjoy it!
Glad you got to experience some of what the Pacific Northwest has to offer. Your hike was pretty typical for what I've found in my adventures in Oregon. Lots of blowdown on the trails, and fairytale scenery around every corner.
I want that app! Thank you for the chance. I love your videos, and my husband wants me to ask for a review on the MH Strato tent. He’s starting backpacking soon and watches all your videos
Welcome to Mt hood. Glad you found Ramona falls.. You're in my backyard! Watching from Gresham, Oregon. If you're still out here, jump over to the skyway bar and grill along hwy 26 in Zizgag. Also I want that app
I want that app! Just got back into hiking to improve my physical fitness and get back out into nature. I’ve lost 25lbs already! Would love the app to get to some better viewpoints. Great video!
I want that app. New to backpacking and hiking. Your videos and a few other really got me more interested on getting out there and going on little adventures. Love the videos.
Ha! If there’s serious changes in elevation or temperature I usually bring a base layer, two lightweight mid layers, and then a puffy. Oh and a rain jacket :-) all are pretty lightweight though
I want that app! Awesome video been watching you for a little over a month now and I am learning so much about getting ready for my first backpack trip. I’ve already picked up a couple of gear items you recommended.
How much data does onX use? I've been using another app and it just used 2gb for a 9.5 mile hike even though I had the maps downloaded. If onX won't eat through my entire data plan in a weekend, ‘I want that app’.
I ended up trying it out. Its good but not perfect. Still needs some polishing. I do like the elevation of the trail feature. It also has some trails around my area that dont show up on alltrails and gaia. And i wish that when i download the map for offline that i could download a more zoomed in view of the map - they give you 5 miles, 10 or 15 miles, and something bigger not sure the distance. I also have a samsung s3 frontier watch and it would be nicw if this could be downloaded onto that to use too so i dont have to pull my phone out all thw time. I also dont have alot of waypoints or viewpoints which im sure has something to do with not alot of people using this in my area vs gaia or alltrails. Hopefullu in the next few years some of it changes.
Epic views come to those circumnavigating Mt. Hood on Timberline Trail. 40 miles of awe inspiring views every day. Well worth a trip back out here to do just that.
LOL, it's Oar-a-Gun... And that is my favorite waterfall in Oregon. The Sandy river is no joke. I would never roll across with a noose, I mean, shoes around my neck. Just saying. I've seen ankle deep water take people down hundreds of feet. Also, later in the afternoon it can be like chocolate milk with boulders rolling through it and several feet higher making it un-crossable until the next morning. Be safe, those signs are no joke.
I want that app. I live in the Mt. Hood area and love all the hiking and great photo ops there. Got a great "thumbnail" of my grandson and I at mirror lake.
I want that app, and a phone with a decent battery. I'm so bad at navigation that on a climbing expedition I ended up at the base of the wrong 8000 metre peak. 7 need all the help I can get.
I didn't watch the full video but it looked like Mt Hood? In December of 2020, I was on Mt Hood, McNeil Campground, Ramona Falls and 100s upon 100s of trees were downed!

I want that app
I want that app (and a properly magnetized leaf lolol)
I want the app and a guide to go with it 🤣🤣

I love how Dan is willing to poke fun at himself. Mispronouncing Oregon was classic.
Nope, that’s the way to say it. Unless you can prove that Thomas Jefferson said Oregun

Hey Dan, it’s not “gone”, it’s “gun” “ore-gun”
Then spell it correctly !
Thank you! I like Dan, but he was making me a little crazy with the pronunciation.
Omg thank you, the em faz is on that siiilllable ore gone whhaaat
That’s a Wisconsin thing...
Who cares
I love how you can make fun of yourself in the intro of these vids. Love when someone can joke like that. You're genuine, and funny!
Welcome to the PNW, where blowdowns and wet trails is pretty fricken common 😂 The more you hike here, the better you'll get at climbing over trees.
I was wondering that. I am from BC, Canada and this is like our normal here. Considering it's so close, it couldn't be that different from here. oO

So glad you enjoyed our State. On a fully bluebird day you can see 5 mountain peaks from that point. Hood, jefferson, Adam's, st Helen's and rainier.
One of my favorite views in the whole state
How many jackets did you bring on this trip, and how did you get them all in your pack? ;-)

Wow what a beautiful trip Dan. You are so fortunate to be able to take these trips and I love that you share them w us. Thank you. 🥾🥾😋
How would you say it stacks compared to basemap?
Pretty cool. I’ll put the app to use when I visit Big Bend in a few weeks - looking forward to app in action😊

Welcome to Oregon. You visited some of my favorite places 😊. Love Mirror Lake and Tom Dick and Harry hike. Was that Ramona falls?
As an Oregonian the way you say “ORE-GONE” is so cute.
I want that app!!

Will you post a video explaining how you fly with your backpacking gear?
I’ve used OnX all over Oregon, and it hasn’t let me down once.
I'm curious about your peak design clip...do you like it? I've read mixed reviews but have been needing something for quick access to my dslr.
I want that app! 👍
I've looked at it many times but never pulled the trigger! I think I like it!

Okay, so I don’t have a Garmon mini yet. I have been using some other lame apps which aren’t too accurate. Downloaded and excited to try it out.
I want that app!!! We got lost last Friday! I wonder how much map support it has for our southern hemisphere in Argentina.
I want that app! Thank you for the chance. I love your videos, and my husband wants me to ask for a review on the MH Strato tent. He’s starting backpacking soon and watches all your videos
I bought that app. $10 is a great deal & I hope this takes off!
don't comment much but always love your humor, this may be the best
Very cool dan. Does that app work overseas,? Like where i am New Zealand? 🤗👍👏👏👏
Welcome to Mt hood. Glad you found Ramona falls.. You're in my backyard! Watching from Gresham, Oregon.
If you're still out here, jump over to the skyway bar and grill along hwy 26 in Zizgag.

Oh yeah brother, I want that app! Thanks for the chance Dan!
Where do you get the aquaclips for your water Dan?
Www.Zpacks.com
@@DanBecker Thank you.
Ok after reading some of these comments, is this app primarily a Pacific Northwest app, will it be of benefit to east coast/AT hikers?

‘I want that app’. How many jackets/coats/hoodies did Dan pack/wear?
So I just have to ask...How many jackets did you bring on this trip???? :D
I want that app. Will it work at Red River Gorge?
What a gorgeous view! My mom lives near Mount Hood. Planning to hike out there sometime. I want that app. Thanks for the info!
I want that app. Always looking for good navigation options
I’ll use your link and add !!!! Looks awesome, great video
Already noticed this app does not have a local trip I am going on early March- A different app I was told about does....
I just want that orange patagonia jacket... what is it?
I want to know how many jackets you brought on that trip? 😜 I counted at least 3!

I already got it before the free offer, looks like I’m going to enjoy 🎒🎒

That waterfall looks almost exactly like Crabtree Falls in NC, off the BRP...
My Coalatree pants would NOT have done that...
I had thoughts about the Timberline Trail around Hood, but the high snow year and huge blowdown section scared me off. The PCT re-route sounds pretty do-able. What did you think of the conditions?
I did it in 2016 when we had to rappel into Elliot canyon. The trail is magical. Just plan extra days!
You should do it. I just did that 4 days ago even conquered the closing sections
FYI best to circumnavigate the Timberline lines around Mt Hood 41 miles 1st week of July to the end of September. And also is best to stay for 2 or 3 nights depending how fit you are because is the # one if not the hardest hiking places in Oregon. Take my words for it I do this trails 4 to 5 times every summer.
@@liamboggs Thanks. I planned a few short backpack trips instead. I've never been to Lake Chelan and the North Cascades.
How hard is the app to learn to navigate and work through. I was just starting to learn Gaia, is it worth the switch if I am a weekend warrior?
I want that app! Sure would come in handy as I begin the 50 state highpoints! Great vid, Dan!
I want the app, been using other apps with mixed results
