Thanks for this 2024 'best of' list; I'm putting some of these on my plans for 2025. Thanks for the great videos all year! So beautiful here in Washington State. I'm looking forward to where all you visit in 2025. Happy trails.
This is the best 2024 recap list. I've enjoyed your videos so much this year and, although we seemed to only be a week or two apart on many of your hikes, I never bumped into you. I hope your 2025 is even better! I really liked your video on Little Giant Pass. That is on my list for 2025. Perhaps a birthday present to myself for my 40th birthday! One of my favorites this year that I don't see much discussion about was Mount Margaret. Relatively easy for a mountain hike of its size, beautiful view, saw so much wildlife and had so many berries, and the sunrise was so nice all within the grasp of I-90. Also, Kendall peak and the Katwalk was ablaze in fall colors. Hard to choose favorites!
Happy new year! Thanks so much for a recap of your escapades! My girlfriend and I will be visiting early to mid summer and would be awesome to know the best time to climb in each wilderness area you explored! Happy trails!
My favorite videos of all time are your mountain summits (Black Peak and Mt. Daniel). This year Mt. Maude was a highlight! My favorite trails explored this year were Jade Lake, Robin Lakes, Cascade Pass and Sahale Arm and Maple Pass Loop. Absolutely love your channel! You have inspired me to make Black Peak a goal this Fall.
Thank you. What a great list, and I love your videos. I did my first backpacking overnight in 2024 to Dewey Lake. It was great, and I can't wait to do another.
I SO APPRECIATE YOUR ADVENTURES, THANK YOU. I AM TOO OLD TO ENJOY WHAT WA HAS TO OFFER, AM SO GLAD I VENTURED WHEN YOUNGER. AND IT WAS SO ENJOYABLE TO FEED THE "CRITTERS" ON THOSE HIKES. HEY, GOD SAYS TO FEED THE CRITTERS AND I LOVE DOING IT. THANK YOU!
What a cool list! I have done so many Washington trails but never any of those. You’ve inspired me! My favorite alpine hike this last year was out of Washington (Canada actually….. Nelson area Selkirk) but trail on AllTrails is called Gibson Lake to Keen Lake, Kaslo lake and Garland Lake. There is a beautiful cabin that you can reserve, either entire huge cabin, or rent a bunk in cabin for like $15!!! Stunning alpine areas. Happy New Year see you on trail!!
Love the end of year review! I will agree that "Heliotrope" was a pleasant surprise. My favorite hike of the year was - Royal Basin & Royal Lake. Aim for 2025 - Preacher Mountain via Rainy Lake
I believe the road up to Winchester Mountain and Yellow Aster Butte got washed out this fall. It's just as well as it needed a complete makeover anyway.
Thank You!!....Im super stoked !!! Im planning a trip this year for late summer early fall , Lord Willing .....Washington is my favorite mountain state
