I want to congratulate you and thank you for your excellent video, extremely well done ! And you filmed the video professionally, with no showing your face all the time, minimal talk, and pleasant background music. Your video is one of the best I have viewed.
Loved watching your video. I started backpacking in 1967. Grew up in SoCal and hiked all over the Sierra’s. Tuolumne Meadows is so beautiful and always loved passing through there. Your video just brings me back there. Have been living in Colorado since 1984, but the High Sierras has a very special place in my mind
Beautiful! Thanks for taking us along!
On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give this video a 264. Wow what amazing scenery. Well done!
The scenery, image quality and pleasant commentary have made me a bit of a fan. Thanks for sharing.
This is gorgeous! This is the hike I’ve been wanting to do forever. Thanks for sharing
So incredibly beautiful scenery. I am really enjoying my 2 hour vacation watching your fine videos. Take care and be safe.
Thanks for bringing us all along on your hiking adventures . I can’t say Thank You enough. Awesome, Awesome vids.
Awww those baby ducks at 13:55 were sooo adorable 😍😍
So beautiful. Thank you so much.
Totally Awesome. Thank you.
Beautiful video! It is so nice to watch a video where the photographer is not constantly filming his face while describing his surroundings. Perfect music and blend of trail scenery, nature and wildlife, and commentary. Thanks to your video, I know where my next backpacking trip will be!
This video was so surreal, felt like I was there hiking with you two, so beautiful the scenery, your a great camera man!
Thank you so much for sharing your awesome videos!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching. Thanks for posting the music as well.
This was a beautiful video ! My wife commented on the music from another room, nice selection.
Thank you. This was excellent!
Outstanding colors. You are blessed with this landscape!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video. Truly awesome photography. You guys take care, be safe and always have fun. 🤗
I was with a group of Boy Scouts from La Jolla, Calif (post 573 I think) hiked from Devils Postpile to Yosemite Valley in 1958. You brought back many fond memories. Great videos.
thanks
Cant beat the longer hikes, much better camping with it all to yourselves.Great tour of that section of the trail.
Awesome you guys! Always fantastic scenery and video, happy trails💜
Thanks, enjoyed your hike very much. I didn't realize how much we had missed while we were there.
Great job. I will be doing this hike in August. Many thanks to you.
Well done. Great footage and the music choice was very fitting. I thank you for reviving some fond memories of mine. My best friend and I made this hike back in the summer of 1968 when we were 16 (we continued for another 3 days ending in Yosemite Valley). In spite of all the years that have passed, I still vividly recall some of the views you shared. Age combined with two very bad knees will almost certainly preclude me from ever seeing this area again firsthand, so I thank you for allowing me to experience this (at least vicariously) through your adventure. BTW, I have forwarded this to my hiking companion from so long ago. I'm sure he will enjoy it at least as much as I did. I will look forward to seeing your other recording efforts. Many thanks again!
Raymond, I'm 75 and started hiking again after a hiatus of 3 years due to personal problems. No, I don't run up the trails any more but I get to the destination in good time. I used to pass everyone on the trails but now they pass me, ROFL. BTW, 6 years ago I did Mt. Whitney in one day, bad left knee and all.

Those days are pretty much over for me, at least until I give in and get the worse of my two bad knees replaced. I might be able to swing it then. I truly loved that entire area. Congratulations on your being able to continue those trips. I genuinely envy you!
Thank you so much for sharing this experience. It gave me butterflies! I was camping in Mammoth Lakes while you were on this hike. I can't wait to go back! Alas, I will watch this video over and over until summer. Thank you!
Thank you for your amazing comment, Sonia! Glad you enjoyed the video! Summer will be here before you know it!!!
So much beauty! Your video is amazing!
Thank you for sharing another another awesome picturesque video. Always be safe out there my friend.
Just watched your video with my folks, from one group of backpackers to another you guys took us on one amazing adventure and you did a great job on the video! We've been all through Ansel Adams & Inyo as well Island Pass. Donahue Pass is on my list now, look forward to more videos! P.S. my parents have been packing for some 40+ years and while they're retired from it now, you brought all their past adventures to life... nicely done.
Thank you for your awesome comment! This is exactly why I make these videos - for enjoyment by others. Happy to hear you and your folks enjoyed the trip!!
AWESOME! OUTSTANDING VIDEO VERY VIVID & THE COLORS JUST AMAZING. THE VIEWS WERE BREATHTAKING TOO. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME TAG ALONG. GOD BLESS YOU BOTH ALWAYS! BE SAFE! HAVE FUN. ENJOYED!
Awesome Video!!! This hike is now on my must do list.
Thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks!
I like the fact that she's wearing low cut shoes. When I started backpacking I wore the "required" 5 lb leather boots with thick soles. After a couple of years of that torture I went to lite weight nylon boots and that was much less tiring. I then tried some low cut hiking shoes and never went back to boots. I even used the shoes with a +50 lb pack and had zero problems.
Gary, there is no big deal with wearing low cut hiking boots, that is unless you sustain a sprained or broken ankle. You've been lucky as many hikers have.
love this video, the trail is awesome view
Great video thank you !!
Very much appreciate the trail trip !!😊
There really isn't anything one can say that gives justice to the great outdoors. Not pic or vid can help us to fully absorb all the awesome_ness of it. But ur vids do inspire !! It's just one of those things that must be taken in in person 😎😎😉. Glad to see a couple sharing the same experience also.
Keep it alive my friends
Two remarkable traits I see in you and your vids..... Great natural video-making skills and your ever-upbeat disposition! Great editing too. Thank you for sharing your gifts and the beauty of your journeys.
Jim Kanzelmeyer thank you, Jim! Glad you enjoyed the video. Happy trails!!
Between your camera and that scenery...wow! Great video
Hello Sheety33. Name here is John. I just wanted to tell you how much I really enjoyed your video! :D Very nicely done!! I am really ill-equipped to take on a hike like that, but kudos to both of you for undertaking that hike. Up until about 7-8 years ago, I had been coming up to Mammoth Lakes in the summertime almost ever year, with family and/or friends. We usually do the condo rental thing, and I have never camped at mammoth. I love to fish up there, bike, and do the shorter hikes, like Rainbow Falls. I had no idea of the beauty along that John Muir trail. I cannot believe the cluster of the numerous, beautiful lakes along the way. The video footage is awesome! I really like how you labeled each lake and mile marker along the way. It is interesting because the drive from Mammoth to Yosemite takes forever, the route 395/120 route. Interesting to see that it is about 39-40 miles from Devil's Postpile to Yosemite. Seems like a pretty direct route. I always like making trip via car down to Reds Meadow, doing the short hike to the Postpile, the hike to Rainbow, and fishing Starkweather. I really need to get back up to Mammoth soon. Keep making and posting your great videos :) I really enjoyed this :)
Hello John! Thank you very much for your comment! The Mammoth back-country is an absolute gem, with numerous trails and high alpine lakes to explore. I plan on uploading much more this year and heading back out into the Sierra Nevada as much as possible. Thanks again for your comment and take care!
You're welcome :) And, I look forward to watching your videos :)
Very nice video. Thanks.. I'm doing this hike because of your post.
Enjoy the hike! :D
Great video, well done.
Nice job. I hiked the same trip in 2012. Nice to see those sights again. Very cool.
Paul (Dog Bit)
I love this video. I am going next summer
I did the very same hike couple years ago; heading back again w/grandson this summer to do again! Last time I did it, had to cross Donahue and scurry down to the tarn during a storm. That year, I secured site in TM campground and then took YARTS to MM ... then the shuttle to Reds.
Thanks for sharing and posting your video. Nice 3 night hike. Wonderful area. Just was the 9.21.18 to 9.24.18
You need to partner up with NatIonal Geographic and do a wilderness trekking documentary. Great stuff my friend. Very beautiful. Really enjoy your videos.
Nice! Well done. May do this hike with my wife one day.
This is a very well done video! Thank you for sharing. I think your footage of the four fish included all brook trout, I did not see a Golden trout in the bunch, unless the fish on the left looks different at another angle. Brook trout tend to eat all the other species in lakes, as they are quite the predators. The guidebooks don't mention Goldens that far north, if memory serves me correctly.
I know how bad you want them to be Goldens too. Can check my most recent upload for some Goldens if you'd like. 😁
Thanks for the video. 👍I had to cancel my trip last fall on the JMT due to the fires. Hopefully this year.
really, really nice
Beast!👍
Cool video. Looks awesome there! I gotta check it out one day.
very nice, relaxing video.
Beautiful scenery!! I do have so wonder how bad her feet hurt after that trip in tennis shoes😫🎒
I hiked with a group down into the Grand Canyon and back from the rim. I was in high top chucks. Everyone else was in hiking boots. I was the only one not complaining about sore feet and blisters.
Just took my brother on this route, last weekend. Thanks for sharing! It was beautiful. P.S. ~ We got done earlier than expected, made it through Lyell, as an epic thunderstorm rolled through, and made it on the yart, last minute! Haha! Good times.
Awesome!!
Sheety youre a bad man on these hiking vids. respect
Thank you!
was there in 70`s ..happy to see it again & there for future plp..?there was not those big brown-metal?- I guess boxes? in camps ..we had tie our food up on cables high off the ground
this was exactly the hike I was looking for! thank you! I plan to do the hike in reverse so I end up in reds meadow straight in to bluesapalooza! lol #cheers
how difficult would you say this hike is?
The hike itself is not difficult, it's more about how well your body holds up over the journey (feet and legs).

You 2 had great weather. No bugs for mid July? That's pretty darn good too. This is on my bucket list. Maybe continue another couple days from Tuolumne to Clouds Rest, down to Nevada Falls and the valley. That would wear my but out!
Great video
dude you make the best video's
I had a great time thank you so much The views really big thank you would like to see a little camp life so i might be able to try this thank you both
I missed an opportunity to do this section of the trail. I hope to get permits to do it next year!
Very nice Video!
Thank you!
Dang THE COMPANY OF ARTIST as your profile image? I knew the guys that started that such a sick image.
Winter needs to wrap it up! Getting all excited for may just from watching this and I must know, did you keep the camera hung from your shoulder the whole time? Awesome video man!
J's Travels thanks!! Yep, carried the camera hung on my shoulder the entire way.
This is the ultimate reality... Only we pretend we are not.
@Sheety33. I always enjoy your videos, well done.
Thank you! Unknown if the fire has devastated the area or not.
Awesome video. Beautiful scenery. Question, if you were to break this down into 4 days of hiking and 3 nights camping, where would you stop for the night? I could do it but my 55 year old knees have a different opinion.
Great video man. What kind of camera did you shoot this on?
Awesome awesome video.... the quality of the colors etc is not seen in so many others. Appreciated the non-talking aspect as well, no overly loud music, loved that the majority is of the trail itself and not your face. Just beautiful work... wondering what camera(s) you are using? Nicely done :)
Thank you! Filmed with a Canon T4i and iPhone 6.
Mr Sheety33, may I ask what camara you are using? This is absolutely gorgeous!
BONITO VIDEO I WANT TO DO THAT!!!THANKS TO SHARE
Great videography and audio editing. How did you get those silky smooth video pans?
James Hunter thank you! Very steady hands, and editing software. I miss my T4i, was a good camera.
Great editing! Love the soundtracks too. I noticed you are using the bag from Lifestraw Mission. I like the 5 liter reservoir but the filter itself is so bulking. Are you using that with another filter?
Vu Mai thanks for your comment! I am actually using the Katadyn Gravity Camp 6L - an amazing and easy to use water filter.
Awesome video. how far in advance did you get the permit?
First touch of snow there...
Thanks for posting. How do i get there and from what entrance?
Hello , which season (month) you been there ? Thank you.
Very enjoyable, thank you! Just wondering: what dates you were there and what camera you used to get such gorgeous shots?
We did this hike from July 16th to the 18th...covered a lot of ground in a fairly short amount of time! I used a Canon T4i and iPhone 6 for filming and pictures.
Thank you so much for your reply! I`ll hope to catch more of your videos in the future. Happy trails!
Lovely video. Which permits did you have to request for this hike?
Thank you! You just need the "John Muir Trail North of Devils Postpile AA10" permit to do this hike.
Thank you! Thinking of doing this 2019.
Just a few questions if I may pick your mind:
What month did you go and how cold were the coldest nights? (If you don't know that: What rating did your sleeping bag have and was that good enough?)
With this permit, you can hike all the way to the end of the JMT in Yosemite Valley, right?
No one answered your question so I will. Yes, you only need one permit for the entire trip. Here is a link to additional information about how to obtain a wilderness permit:
www.fs.usda.gov/main/inyo/passes-permits/recreation
I'm not sure what month these folks did this hike, although it looks like late July or early August. 2016 was a drought year so it is difficult to tell as snow melted early that year. Nights can be variable as far as temperature. It could be in the low 40's or could dip to the mid 20's, depending on weather and elevation. If a cold front comes through in the summer temperatures can drop to that lower range. In the early 1990's it snowed 6-10" above 9,000 - 9,500 in August, but in 37 years of living in both Bridgeport and Mammoth Lakes, I only saw this once. If the summer monsoon is bringing in daily rains it can hail strongly at the elevations involved on this route. I pack a 20 degree rated sleeping bag, a ragg wool sweater and full Gore-Tex with me whenever I hike in the Sierra, along with a stocking cap and mittens. Your extra socks, if you use thicker wool socks with liners, make excellent mittens. The only thing cotton I wear is a t shirt, everything else is some type of synthetic or wool. Cotton is known as "the death garment" among rangers and search and rescue personnel.
In heavy snow years this stage of melt shown in this video may not be reached until late August. Stream crossings in such a year tend to be a little more challenging, but there aren't any major ones without a bridge along this route. You can shorten this trip a bit by starting at the Agnew trailhead and picking up the JMT on the Shadow Lake Trail. Mosquitoes can be quite nasty on this route, especially following above average winters.
YARTS stands for "Yosemite Area Regional Transportation System." Here is their link:

Have a great time in 2019!!
Great video!! I am hoping to do this hike this summer, and am wondering where you left a car. Mammoth Lakes? And then do you shuttle from there to Devil's Postpile? Transportation is the part that is confusing me the most!
Thanks! We left our car along the side of the road near the ski resort, walked to the shuttle and road down into the Devil's Postpile. The Yart brought us back from Tuolumne. Hope this helps!
Thank you!! That is just the information I needed!! Thank you again for such a great video, and for replying so quickly!
👍👏🇺🇸👺🔥⛺ good video thank you Jim Lane Kansas City Missouri
Great video! And where could I get that map? My dad and I are doing this trail and a little more next year, and would love to get my hands on that map! Thanks in advance!
Cara Outdoors thank you! This map may be purchased anywhere in the Sierras. It’s also waterproof for those summer rains:)
Thanks for sharing! First time visiting Mammoth and will be doing the same route. I purchased the Ansel Adams Wilderness map by Tom Harrison. Curious what map you are using. It's clearer and more detailed
Enjoy the adventure! This is the JMT booklet map.
Nice footie
This is what I know - You are a blessed man to have such a great girlfriend/wife/significant other
Hi Sheety33 - what kind of video camera did you use? Very well done!
smkshftr Filmed with a Canon Rebel T4i...thanks for your comment!
How did you work the shuttle for this trip?
ahhhh..... what a life! @ 26:46
Good video quality. You could get great drone ftg.
I gotta know, did you guys take the shuttle back to your car from Tuolumne meadows?
We took the Yart from Tuolumne back to Mammoth.
How do you get all the permits? Tell me your tips.
Hey what permit is needed for this hike?
Awesome Video! Where can I find the map you are using?
Dem GOODz thanks! The map can be found at REI.
Nicely Done... The weather looked Great. They call the pink Snow " Watermelon Snow" A Local told us never to eat it... How were the Bugs?
Thanks! Weather was sunny and perfect all 3 days. Bugs were not too bad. Carried a large 8 oz can of "OFF" to combat the skeeters....no problems.
It's just algae. From what I've read it's safe, but you dont know what else is on that ice that can harm you. It is tempting.😉
@Sheety33: Was this one of the areas devastated by the fires. Sad if it was.
Nice ... you shoulda have spent more nite's around garnet an 1000 isle lakes ;-)
5:52 what's up with those fish?
So wait. You can’t take a backup firearm in case a wildlife encounter??
Thank you for another great video. Where is a good place to go to get more info regarding logistics, permits etc? I'd love to replicate this hike. Thanks Adam
Glad you enjoyed it! Believe it or not, I found a lot of information here on UA-cam regarding logistics, trails and permit information. For permit information go here:
www.fs.usda.gov/main/inyo/passes-permits
We used the Yart service to get back to Mammoth from Yosemite and information can be found here (the yart was incredibly inexpensive too!):
yarts.com/
To book the actual permit for this hike you will simply go to recreation.gov and select the "North of Devils Postpile" trail permit. This permit is very hard to acquire due to it's popularity.
Hope this helps!
Thank you. This is very helpful! Hope you get out again soon.. Take care. Adam
