Do this again, and again, and again, until you can't. This is what older people miss, and you may not get another chance later on. This is the sort of thing that older people reflect upon and truly miss. What a great video!
Who are you calling old. I’m in my late 60’s and still get my broken body out there. The day I stop is the day I drop. Leave me there because I have truly dropped in the most peaceful settings imaginable. True story. 💜
@@RV_There_Yet I’m with you Bill! I’m late 60’s and getting ready to take possession of my “American Safari” van in mid November. Maybe we’ll cross paths. I fear loneliness. I’m good with myself but still nervous.
@@susanbabcock3917 Very cool Susan! I haul around a 27 foot trailer. I would like to go smaller but my wife likes her comfort. I pick my battles but this isn’t worth fighting over. Haha 😆
@@RV_There_Yet My dad is in his mid 70's and he's still doing hikes that leave me exhausted (I'm in my late 30's). I've heard theres been people in their mid 70's that have done the whole Pacific Crest Trail as well. Just a matter of keeping ourselves fit and healthy and we have plenty of time for hikes.
Hi Linnea and Akela! When you go backpacking, soak or put Vaseline on cotton balls. Get the large cotton balls in the big bag. Put enough Vaseline on but leave some of the cotton exposed. Store them in a plastic air tight container or zip lock bag. The cotton balls make a great fire starter and will burn for a good amount of time so you can gather up more wood. The Vaseline burns clean and disipates quickly. This hike was so beautiful. Please keep sharing your adventures with us. I look forward to them every week!
Thank you so much for taking us along on your adventures! I'm only 56, but am now disabled so no more hikes for me, but you make me feel like I'm still out there 🥰🚙🇨🇦
Those cliffs though. Yeah, NOPE! The 3 of you (pardon me, 4 including Akela) are brave walking along there. I could never do it. This video though was great. You showed so much beauty and I love how Akela fell in love with your friends boyfriend! So cute!
This was a great video Linnea. Akela was so happy & animated. Your laughter & joy for life is always fun to watch. Thank you for sharing this beautiful hike with us. Your friends look like a lot of fun.
I wish you all would try & cheer a little & have a good time instead of being so depressed. Seriously, great to see good friends enjoying so much beauty & having a wonderful time together. Bravo!!!! 👍👏😜😂
Some of my fondest memories are of all the camping I did in my 20’s and 30’s with my siblings and our group of friends. I’m 60 now and we are all still very good friends (chosen family). I so enjoy watching your videos and seeing you make all these awesome memories! I am so very happy I stumbled upon your UA-cam channel. You are an amazing woman and Amelia is an awesome dog!
What a gorgeous hike! Also love the shoutout to Braiding Sweetgrass - I'm currently re-reading it for probably the 10th time. Her other book - Gathering Moss - is also fabulous!
Being patient has paid off!!! Awesome video! I may have spit out a bit of coffee here and there laughing at you guys😂 Thank you so much for sharing and carrying us along on your fun adventures ....I know putting all these together and all the editing is so time consuming but I thank you so much for doing so💕
Such a fun hike and video, And your friend looks like she could be your sister. :) Loved the video so much thank you for sharing it with us. Also Akela is just the sweetest!!!
what a great, tremendous, wonderful, etc. etc. life you have. You and your friends are so fortunate. you made important decisions early in your life, the CORRECT DECISIONS. it gives you a great life great life the REST of your life.
I didn't mind heights or drops as a youngster. Unfortunately during my third pregnancy I developed this fear of heights and drops. Got somewhat better after the birth but never completely went away. So Akela walking that narrow path had my heart in my mouth for her safety. Such a brave group.
Hi Linnea,Akila and friends🥰 glad to see you again….but video this time,😱🤢 me even just watching,have butterfly in my stomach..hiking on that cliff,crossing that single plank….I’ll leave the adventures to you..Thank you for bringing the wonderful nature to us..And Please, Stay Safe and Safety Always!
Eagle Creek! I love EC. This is where the big Gorge Fire of 2018 started. Some kid threw a fireworks over the edge. Lost so much forest that year. So happy you got to hike it!
The most enjoyable thing that i have watched ever, good to see you all having fun, I look forward to seeing what you get up to next, regards from Yorkshire England xxx
reminds me of washington state back home now i'm in a big city.. Vegas and sometimes I get homesick. I'm not fond of the city life, its fun for a second but then I need to get back to nature.
This video was a joy to watch! Nothing but laughter and beautiful nature...got some high vibes from this one. You and your friend Bailey are so cute and funny together. I saw that Amanita mushroom then cut to the laughter and silliness. High on life is what this is, everyone needs to adopt that mindset : )
Didn't know that you could buy socks with toes, bought some from Amazon, amazing, thanks to you, do you know you have a infectious laugh , take care both of you regards from Yorkshire England xxx
This video is an absolutely wonderful byproduct of the kind of camping/hiking adventure anyone would want to be part of. So much happiness and joy and adventure among good friends. Best life! Thanks very much for sharing!
I have also read Braiding Sweetgrass last summer while visiting Door County WI and it is SUCH an incredible book! I was so happy when you mentioned it!
Omg. First time watcher and never a commenter but I LOVE braiding sweetgrass!! New favorite of mine and had to chime in a resounding hell yes!!! BTW thanks for sharing your gorgeous surroundings. I've been alone in the Coconino Forrest for past week and wish I didn't have to leave Monday. I moved into my van in March and cannot imagine life could get much better!! Here's to independent strong women living their truth however they can! Keep pursuing your bliss💜
I myself would have been nervous walking along those cliffs , your braver than I lol. Beautiful views though pretty falls and stream Not bad camp spots either nice you were able to get a fire going at your second site Akela is such a good girl and a beautiful shep. I miss mine . Thanks for bring us along on this adventure

Man, does that take me back to my twenties. Heck, almost 70 now. So, I will live vicariously through you !
As a beginner backpacker, I would love to see a video going through the gear you and Akela use backpacking!
Oh mushrooms. Ryan I've found some food....oh great ....That's amazing Lenina , Bend Over....
Oh mushroom .... brilliantl love, well done.......Bend Over.
