    Thanks for another great video. At 79 years old, I’m not up for 18 mile day hikes anymore.

    Your hikes in yosemite are my favorites. I appreciate no back ground music, prefer your narrative and sense of humor sprinkled in.
    But best of all is your photograpphy skills.
    Thank you!

    I love the autumn colors of nature, the 13/15 minutes between the view of the river flowing into the lake with the rocky mountain behind it and then the color of the magnificent lake... the whole journey between views/waterfalls and landscapes makes me think how much it is beautiful where you live for nature.. great lunch to recharge.. much appreciated video 😁👏💪👍

      Thanks, man!Yes, the back country of Yosemite just goes on and on and is filled with amazing views and beautiful scenery. I feel pretty lucky to live near it.

    Never knew this hike existed! Thank you so much for filming and uploading this amazing adventure.
    Please please cook lunches and add to the video. Me and my wife love seeing your recipes and you munching down the lunch haha.
    You are awesome my friend. Thanks again for all the videos you upload.

    The best way to start a day - A new video from Yosemite Guy'd ! Beautiful scenery and adventurous hiking action. A full day of trail treasures Plus a meal ! Living life full speed. Gotta wear out your legs for the next day or 2. That gritty terrain would slow you down with out your flip-flops. But I'm sure you'd do without just for the challenge. So glad I've found your videos they are a highlight of any day. Thanks for taking me along.

      I'm so glad you found them, too, because your comments are the best! The fact that you look forward to them inspires me on the trail! I hope all is well with you. Oh, and my legs were rubber the next day😂

      @@theyosemiteguyd Yeah all is well. Shorter daylight hours and brisk mornings. Lots of Maple leaves to rake in my yard. When you started the sky was blue but clouds moved in as you trekked on. Wishing you and yours the best. Hope your new position makes you rich and happy.

      You have to do Glen Aulin next summer. Not a difficult hike at all and so many stunning views along the way. One of my absolute favorites. I think I'm going to Alder creek falls tomorrow so stay tuned for that one! :)

      That sounds amazing!! Don’t forget to get your Yosemite park entry reservations once you have your dates locked in. You can get them now on recreation.gov app. Do that as soon as possible. :)

      That is a fun hike. Do Clouds Rest on the way. It's a great destination. Don't know if it's still true, but they used to give you a Half Dome permit with wilderness Permit - no lottery

    Did you just hike a rocky 18 miles in sandals? Boss move. I've never been to waterwheel..I'll be trying it next week. Thanks for the overview!

    • @theyosemiteguyd
      @theyosemiteguyd  Рік тому

      Awesome! Waterwheel is definitely cooler in the early summertime when you get those big rooster tails kicking up. Kind of anticlimactic right now. But the whole trail is really amazing. Hope you have an amazing hike!! :)

    Thank you for another great hike and video! As a California guy who would like to do more hiking in Yosemite, what would be 2 or 3 good starter hikes in the 5 -8 mile length (preferably off the beaten path) that you would recommend? Thanks again.

      Thanks for watching! Most of the lesser travelled Yosemite valley hikes have serious elevation gains so I'm thinking thats not what you want. Something cool would be Mcgurk meadow to dewey point. It is a little over 7.5 miles round trip but the elevation gain is minimal and its really pretty. That trailhead is off glacier point road. Another less traveled trail would be Alder Creek Falls starting from mosquito creek. That one is about 6 miles round trip starting from mosquito creek which is just 4.1 miles past wawona. But winter is coming and once we get some lower elevation snow these will be less accessible. Hope this helps! :)
