      I visited Wyoming for about 30 minute. Driving in from Armpit, Montana,
      to collect an expedition order. Townspeople, mostly young women, stood
      by to ask us cave explorers their questions. Today, I'd suggest they see:
      Horsethief LIDAR Flythrough. UA-cam views of that cave exploration

    Tristan, i always enjoy your videos. I would love some closeups of some of the wild flowers you hike through. Even if it is just for a moment. I can pause the video and look up the name and info of them. Wild flowers are a passion of mine and I am not able to hike anymore. Thank you so much again for the videos.

    Love your videos! They are the best. Such spectacular scenery. One thing though. Never get under a tree when lightening is near. Just get as low to the ground as you can. A lot of people are killed by lightning striking the tree they took shelter under. I want you safe and healthy so you can do many more spectacular videos.

    • @KeyofDavid5778
      @KeyofDavid5778 Рік тому

      So you're saying you get out in the open when a lightning storm comes by and your at 8 to 10,000 ft !?
      How much time have you spent in the high backcountry?
      You believe everything you read The Weather Channel says or that's on the internet ?
      Your body with electrical energy in an open space has a far greater chance of getting a lightning strike than you being under a tree.... just because Google says something and the Weather Channel says something......
      doesn't make it true !
      I've traveled the High Country in several Western States I mean the High Country and never is there is so few trees that is struck by lightning fried ......there's many more strikes of lightning on the ground that high up especially around rocks !

      partnered with organized cave explorers of Montana). Continue that friendly association

    Thank you, Tristan, for your UA-cam channel. It is exceptional. I always love your posts. You ask your viewers to tell what their favorite part was… I thought I would comment here about this on this post. There were several favorite parts to me. It was all so enjoyable - the visual and verbal description of the beautiful Wyoming Mountain Range, the waterfall and the way you explored its nature, the map showing the area of your hike, the challenge of your climb, the breathtaking 360 views of the other mountain ranges, the thunderstorm in the distance, the bike ride, and satisfied final return to your car. It was fun to watch! I am from Montana and have seen this kind of country but you make it come so alive to the senses. I look forward to Saturday mornings with your SUV RVing videos.

    Great video. I climbed Wyoming Peak and the Coffin Ridge in about 1980 as a part of a seismic survey across both of the Wyomide ranges. The survey lines ran from Big Piney to Cokeville. The summit house was still standing at that time. Once again you have provided me with a look back at some of my past exploits without having to expend the large amount of energy in my later years. Thanks for allowing me to re-visit some great memories of a wonderful place. Another place in the area you can check out is the Commissary Ridge. Great views from up there, too.

    If you are still in the neighborhood, I really enjoyed the hike at Freds Mountain, from the Grand Targhee Resort. Excellent views of the Teton range, and beautiful mountains in every direction, and a lot less people than the hikes at the Teton Park, like by Jenny Lake, etc. I did a YT video from that location, but I was recovering from Covid at the time and didn't have a lot of energy.

Mine's a 2010. Are you still able to access your back door w/ the bike rack on the back, & does it fit just one bike, or two? Thnx again! :) Loved this video, love all your videos actually. You do an amazing job w/ them. Ty again so much for them. :) God Bless! :)

    I also watch Wyoming geologist Myron Cook so I watch your videos with an eye for typographical features that Myron has pointed out. One such was "sloughing" against a slide that I recognized in your video. Over a half an hour video he slowly reveals the highlighted geologic feature. It's like painting a picture.. at first it doesn't look like much then slowly the image emerges. Fascinating. I'm a Big Fan of nature!

    I did a lot of field work in the Wyoming, Salt River, and Snake River Ranges back in the early 1980's. I utilized a helicopter to get up the upper areas of the ranges, and then hiking down to the valley floors while performing my work. You should check out some of the cirques in the Salt River Range around Mount Fitzpatrick....very spectacular scenery.

    A high clearance car, a mountain bike and two decent legs. That's exactly what I use as well to explore the backcounty. In fact, I often do these partial loops, stashing my bike at a planned hiking endpoint and then pedal back to the car. My favorite part (moment) was when the bike showed up on camera at the 2nd trailhead… no one took it😅

    Ok, at the start I thought, yay! You'll be climbing smooth mountains for once, so we won't have to watch you on treacherous loose talus. Then it turned into something like Mount Talus Up the Frapping Wazoo. Oh well lol.
    That range must be extra old in contrast to the Tetons. If I remember Geology 101, older ranges have that round, smooth look.
    I liked the second small waterfall. It wasn't the second one you wanted to see, I know, but still beautiful and wow, gushing! This late in the season, no less.
    I also liked how you changed things up with the different route back and bike ride. That was very cool.
    You must be happy in your new homestead. You seem almost ebullient, Tristen. 😁 And I don't use the word ebullient lightly. Actually, I don't think I've ever used the word ebullient in my entire life.
    Another gorgeous, crisply edited, perfectly paced video. I'm addicted.

Maybe you guys could do a couple videos together. He can add a little Geologist content to you and you can give him some pointers on youtube'ing and that drone you have. Just a suggestion. Anyway, great content thanks for posting👍
