![Fly Fishing Montana's Clark Fork River from Dry Creek to Regis in June [Episode #28]](/img/n.gif)
What a beautiful little movie! Your Dog is so cool. Thank you!
Thank you! My dog's name is Timber and he is a Husky / German Shepard. Thanks for watching!
I was looking at him and I thought..Husky with some German Shepherd! Cool
Gorgeous video, the way it is edited deserves all the praise. I enjoyed every second my friend!
Thank you for checking it out!
Man, video is next level brother! Great shots, that shot with deer bones and the shot at 9:22 is awesome. Loved how you used drone shots as transitional shots. Dude the disgusted look on your face when you had no coffee. Lol! And you called it ....a train did derail...and it dumped a crap load of Coors Light into the river. Mountain Wanderer not just a hiking legend...but a psychic. The More you know🌠
Thanks! I made a point to fly the drone every day, so I had all kinds of footage to work with. Kind of wish that I was downriver from the derailment, I would've been fishing beers out of the river!
@Mountain Wanderer goes to show all beer is good beer....but the best beer is FREE BEER.
Great viewing to start my morning, Timber looks fit.
Timber still has his full winter coat on! The great shed of '23 has started though
Great video......!
Birdie says hi to Timber. She's jealous of the cool/cold weather backpacking trips.
Timber still has his full winter coat, so even that wasn't cold enough for him, but he still loves getting out there!
I could almost smell the cedars you cut for that night two fire. Man what an awesome trip. Solos are so great sometimes. Sorry about the coffee sitting at home LOL
Oh man... and it was cold that morning! perfect days for a hot cup of coffee! Turned into a real survival situation there! 😂
Very beautiful nature
Incredible area!
HeeHee..."The way things have been going I half way expected that thing to come off the tracks."
God bless Daboo.
Who knew I was psychic
What a nice trip. Timber is looking good but no coffee. That's a bummer. Thanks for the video and take care, Al
I've never forgotten my coffee before... hopefully never again!
As always really enjoyed this video, the late winter scenery in Montana and especially the drone footage of the Clark Fork. Afraid I woulda bailed when I realized I had no coffee to get the morning started.
I had thoughts of turning back... 😂
No coffee-ouch. So true on the toughest part is getting to the trailhead. Thanks for putting this together, nice job
It's a good trip when the worst part of the experience was no coffee... I mean don't get me wrong, it was rough...
Great video! Those oil trains always make me nervous. We forgot coffee once, and it was miserable. Haven't forgotten it since. Forceing yourself to get to the trailhead is most of the battle. I need to do that soon. Thanks for sharing! Hike on!
I was just up from where the train derailed on Sunday. Looked like it was mostly beer in those cars. I wouldn't have minded fishing a few out of the river!
Im glad the train didnt come off the tracks, sorry you forgot your coffee(darn it)
Nice camp sites.
Love your fire.
Great senery.
Looks like you had a Pretty good trip for exception of forgetting the coffee.
The funny thing is, it wasn't that train that came off of the rails, but one the next day, a few miles from where I was camped, it DID come off of the rails!
Great shot with the bones and the railroad track, shows the contrast between life and death
Exactly what I was going for!
@@mountainwanderer Man.....im telling yah, we need to go on a hike some time before there ain't no more life to live!
Beautiful river running through that area. Keep on moving!✌️
it's even more majestic when you get to see it from above!
@@mountainwanderer I’m sure it is.
Wow thats Beautiful!
It is a really beautiful area! Thanks for checking it out!
Great video! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice hike and vid Travis. I'm familiar with this trail. A true hidden gem.
Did you go down to the river on Sunday and fish out some beer?
@@mountainwanderer I would have been the first one to hit the water if it was a "Buffalo train!"
Another good one - it's that tough time of year where it's a mix of bare ground and sketchball ice/snow. But always nice to wake up to a little bit of fresh snow. We'll be flying into Kalispell this August for a week and I'm really looking forward to it!
That is awesome! You'll love the mountains in Montana!
Great footage 👍 liked & subscribed, thanks for sharing, grüße Michael from Germany
Welcome to the channel! Happy to have you!
@@mountainwanderer Thanks
Damn nice pike in that river!
As I was leaving, some people were just staging their trucks so that they could float and fish. I was a little jealous!
Good dog.
He's the best dog!
Thanks for sharing; take care
Thank you for checking it out, as always!
@@mountainwanderer always go to get back into the woods(even with grey skies); I went to Canfield for a couple of hours yesterday, and it was nice(stream is gushing nicely again thankfully enough) 💧🌲🌈
"I thought it was like we were the only game on this trail, as we searched for the body of a missing boy.....Roy brauer."😏😉😉☺️☺️🤣🤣😁👌👌👌
Took me a minute to put this together, but I got it - Stand by me!!
Thompson Falls area, I use to hike, camp, hunt, and live there!
It's an amazing area, I love it there!
Awesome trip! I have to say I am a bit jealous. While I have been having the time of my life splitboarding our record snow pack, I am jonesing to get some dirt under my feet and a few days away. While it's nice to have some company out there, solo trips are special. You know the old saying "You don't know if you don't go! Looks like a great early season trip! Nice Silky Saw! Cuts up some nice logs!
Silky's are the way to go! My nephew just sent me a picture from Eden, and he has 3-4 feet of snow in his yard still. Hopefully it doesn't all melt at once!
@@mountainwanderer Little Cottonwood Canyon has a 240” base right now. It’s been record breaking and ridiculous!
I always enjoy your videos and I'm ready to get out hiking again this season. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! It won't stop snowing!
I always wondered what that area looked like when thinking n research of Missoula Montana as a new home.
It's an area I've considered moving to myself!
I just viewed one of your videos for first time a couple days ago. It was one featuring the Salmo-Priest loop that you hiked with Joey. When your channel's "About" info stated you were from the Rockies, I had a hunch the portion of the shining mountains from which you hailed might be in Montana. After nearly four decades of wanting to live in the state (a late friend originally from Troy who was a logger on the Olympic Peninsula in the early 1970's first put the bee in my bonnet about MT) I finally acquired a portion east of Clinton through which the Clark Fork flows. I don't have another four decades remaining, so hopefully I can get my butt moved over there while the legs will still carry me, albeit noticeably slower and not nearly as reliably as they once did. In the meantime, I let a Wye business guy hunt the place, since he was already doing so before I purchased it. There's a story featuring a flaming RV and an interesting coincidence behind the manner in which I learned that fact.
Are you also a hunter sir?
I'm not quite in Montana, but close! Montana is one of my favorite places! No, I'm not a hunter.
@@mountainwanderer Oh, my mistake. I thought you said something about driving to the trailhead after work, and I jumped to an invalid conclusion 🤔😖that you lived fairly close to that stretch of the Clark Fork.
it would take me 70-80 minutes to get to that trailhead on the Clark Fork.
@@mountainwanderer I got that. After your previous reply, I already figured that you were either a panhandle man, a rabid hockey fan* (and player too, perhaps) or one hell of a speed demon!😁🤣 (Seeing as Montana finally caved to the feds on previously eschewing a set speed limit. I remember those freedom-loving days between 1995 and 1999 somewhat fondly. However, truth be told, I have a difficult time even maintaining the speed limit these days, especially at night and with inflated fuel prices thrown into the calculus! All I can say about getting old is that it beats the alternative, from my present perspective at least! )
* Haven't heard a single "ah-boot" in your narration so far, nor a sentence concluded with "eh?" that would lead me to seriously think you a Canuck; but, I suppose you could be an expat.
Sometimes I sound Canadian, but I am 100% American. And you're right, in the Panhandle! It's a great place to live for adventuring. With I-90 right here, I can jump on that and easily get to great places in the Montana and Washington. Or if I don't feel like driving, my own valley is outdoorsman's paradise. Though I will admit that since Idaho is more about forests than roads, it can take a while to get to a trailhead here, even in my own county!
Hilarious my man. In my camping days my list was coffee, TP , coffee, TP, food, butter. Krustezze, canned meat.
You had me till the canned meat...
@@mountainwanderer survival only if there were no fish. HeeHeee, One can of spam always.
No coffee!!!!!!
Hard times..
NOOOOO…. You forgot the coffee!! Im hikin back out if that happens!😁
Im a one day at a time guy so coffee is critical 😉
Hey is your setup the blackbird? Im thinking about one of the winter hennessey setups.
Great video man! Take care. NQU
No, I'm using the Blackbird, my hammock is from Simply Light Designs. It's a bit wider than other hammocks which is the reason I got it. Highly recommend!
Man sorry you forgot your coffee that would suck. Nice video tho!
The struggle was real! Thanks for checking it out!
Здравствуй! Какая порода собаки?
Привет! Он хаски/немецкая овчарка.
I don't know about u but I'll take snow over rain ALMOST every time 🤨
Absolutely! The snow doesn't bother me at all!
