That was lovely. Thank you for sharing. We based camped at Muriel Lake not long after you passed through. I was pondering routes like this while I was there. You’ve captured the essence of the experience.
I parked at the North Lake day use trailhead around 7:00 a.m. September 8th for a day hike, which I really enjoyed. There was only one other car in the lot. Must have been yours. Thanks so much for sharing!
What a stunning trip in the Sierra high country, and thank you for the maps. I was able to follow along at home, and while I'm not skilled enough (yet) for serious cross-country like that, I am inspired. It just doesn't get any better than that.
The best video I’ve seen of Sierra trekking. It rivals the best of the world’s other ranges. I’d say “professional” but that belies the presentation’s tenderness. In 1965 after climbing Black Giant and Charybdis I deliberated whether to climb Scylla. If things went wrong, it would have been two weeks before I’d be reported missing. I rejected. Your view of the Ionian Basin energizes me. Keep on trekking and keep recording.
@@CactusCharlie thanks for the kind words 😌 and sharing your story from the area. That sounds like such a cool experience! I’ve actually never climbed any peaks in the Sierra, the cross country passes have been a lot of excitement for me so far. Maybe that’ll be my next step.
@@eddielombera5862 I had a lot of experience doing this with others before I ever went alone so that helped. I also grew up in the woods, I used to play hide and seek with my siblings in the woods at night lol. I’ve just been exposed to it enough it doesn’t bother me, long as I don’t hear footsteps…
@@basinandrange I’ve hiked during dawn for a couple of hours and your mind is definitely your biggest enemy in the dark. Videos like yours and others are inspiring me to do this one day 👍 keep em coming ✌️
I have only recently found your UA-cam channel, but I love it. Thank you for making and sharing these videos of your adventures! Question: where did you buy your hiking pants, and do you know the name? Thanks again!
I like your video very much, give you a thumbs up. As a Chinese, I am afraid that I will never be able to truly experience the joy of outdoor hiking, because almost all the beautiful scenery is enclosed as scenic spots and tickets are charged. It is forbidden to stay overnight there, so I can only watch hiking videos to make up for the regret of not being able to practice. I have a few questions that have been lingering for a long time, and I hope the blogger can answer them when it is convenient: 1. Are you not afraid to sleep alone in the wild? How would it feel? 2. Are you not worried about attacks from other people? Even if you don’t carry cash with you, communication equipment and filming equipment can also be the reason for being robbed. 3. How to solve the problem of mosquito bites? Thank you very much!
I hope you find a way to get out in the world! I'm not afraid to sleep out there, unless I have an actual reason at the time, such as hearing something. I like to camp above the trees most of the time, there are less animals up there. Other than that, I think it's all about getting used to it, I had a lot of experience going with other people before I went alone. It makes me feel immersed in nature and that outweighs fear. As for other people, I've noticed that the farther I get away from cities/society, the less of a threat people are. Maybe because there's sort of an understanding that most people in the wilderness are self sufficient and not easy targets. I'm more worried about getting robbed at a gas station than in the mountains, so the risk is all relative I guess. I haven't had an experience like that thankfully. For mosquitoes I use essential oils and a head net, that's pretty much it, but there are no bugs in the fall/late summer. That's when I went on this trip.
@@yebushibukeyi do you know about the Karakoram mountains on the China/Pakistan border? I’ve been following a creator named Marc Adamus on instagram who’s been posting incredible images from that area lately… I don’t know which country he’s actually been in, but it might be worth looking into.

I rarely comment on videos, but this one was truly, absolutely outstanding!
I can’t believe the quality of this video. I’ve watched a lot of UA-cam and this is some of the best content I’ve ever seen
@@the0netheycallgod413 ohh wow thank you 😊

Beautiful. Thank you. I hiked the JMT NOBO with my son this past summer. Want to explore more of Kings…alone. 😊

Wow! Thoroughly enjoyed your video! You have a great eye! Can’t wait to see more!
Yes, beautifully shot video and what a great route. Love Kings Canyon!

It's a beautiful movie!
Really enjoyed it.
Looking forward to more interesting storylines
You're good!

One of the most beautiful movies I have seen on the Sierra! The video of Ionian Basin was incredible!!!
Thank you I’m glad you liked it!
Yup! Just subscribed…
Me too
Just beautiful…. I guess my only question is how do you overcome the fear of being alone, especially at night..?

@@basinandrange Thanks for your reply, and I hope you have a safe journey on your new hiking journey.
What kind of food did you packed? I see you boiled the water and threw it in the cup.
