One of the things that Trent does better than anyone is integrating music into his videos. He always seems to pick a track that fits the mood of the video, and blends it perfectly with the other audio. Very nice overall.
Ugh.. I LOVE his videos and HATE that really bland pseudo dramatic music. Add some Black Sabbath or Cream and I'm good. If you wanna see great integration of music check out Tally Ho. Leo does it truly perfectly. And changes it up. This stuff is like the goofy music Warren Miller had. But again, Trent's footage is amazing so I'll stay and just have my hand on the slider on the mixing board.
FWIW that metal drag thingy is called a "Fresno Scraper" and is what was used to cut roads, dams (and airports) back in the dim times. Usually pulled by a team of horses or mules.
DUDE I Needed this today. Wife is sick 2 of my elderly Neighbors are sick. Just me here to take care of them all. SO HAPPY I CAN DO IT! Feel blessed to abole to do it. This video just gives me a few mins of down time. Thanks for that. What a true blessing. God Bless !!
Trent where is the better half haven't seen her for a while great vid aircraft looks good .nice on Sunday morning Freedom Fox with a good coffee and beautiful country . God bless be safe up there
With the exception of that new intro, this is probably THE BEST video you have made in a long time, Trent! I didn't know they still made Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. Great video!
Next time you're up near McCall, fly up around Loon Lake. There is a crashed WWII bomber up there, not sure if you can see it from the air, but cool nonetheless
I doubt it was wave, when you look at the max altitude he reached it was still quite a bit bellow the cumulus clouds around him, making it impossible to catch have laminar flow around him. Also you can see that when he says « it’s quite chilly around here » the plane is still bumpy/in the middle of turbulences, again impossible in wave. So most likely it was just a good thermal :)
Welcome back to my backyard. Flew to Pinion peak last weekend. Everything is all smoked in now!! The upper loon creek has a horrible story. Few years ago during the winter a dad went down to clean off the runway for his son to land. Dad ended up in loon creek with a cat. Son landed and found his dad while walking to the ranch.
no Trent don't shut your mouth about fishing because #1 we love hearing your passion for fishing & #2 is the fact that you're learning how to fly fish brother and fish in general so keep at it my friend. muchlove
That old piece of equipment is called a “fresno”. I pull mine with a team of mules. Replaced by the bulldozer in recent times. It’ll eat your lunch if you’re not careful 🤠
Honestly, love love love the longer videos. The additional work it takes is greatly appreciated. Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you Trent!
WOW! Brings back so many memories. I sold my C-172 straight tail in 2019; flew it in the back country of Idaho many times during the 24 years that I owned it. Somewhat limited in terms of power but was able to fly into and camp at many of the back country airstrips. Many thanks to Trent for reminding me of the memories.
Amazing video! I just found your channel. I grew up in Idaho and lived just about 8 miles from Homedale which is now the home of Kit Fox. I always wanted to fly into the back country but didn't feel confident doing so, especially in a rental aircraft. Stopped flying 30 years ago when I was transferred overseas and never picked it up again. . All my flying was out of small uncontrolled airports in Idaho and Arkansas with about 290 hrs logged. I used to fly out of Nampa and Caldwell a lot. I am now retired and live in Wyoming, but don't feel safe flying anymore so I am flying vicariously through your videos. Thank You!
When I was a boy we flew around the Brazilian hinterland in Cessna 172s and commercial DC-3s. The afternoons were always very bumpy and uncomfortable due to the heat and the resulting rising currents.
Don’t know if you saw it, but your drone flew past an eagle on the left at the 22 minute mark. Really loved this one Trent, all the different landings were fantastic. You are so lucky to have such a verity of places you can land. As for the snake, why didn’t you catch it and throw it on the fire. Such a waste. 👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Trent. Love your you tube. I grew up on the middle fork. My dad was the ranger at Thomas creek and Indian creek guard station. On the Thomas creek Landing there was a lodge called Harrah's lodge....from the Vegas Harrah's Casino. Yes they brought in multiple cars...including a couple Model T's.
Hi Trent, This was another great video. With great content, 25 minutes is fine. I really enjoy your videos. It was a place I will never get a chance to see if not for your videos. Thank you for sharing. Take care, Be safe.
I’m here at the end. I am an old pilot that doesn’t have my medical and had to part with my beautiful V-Tail, S Model. I can feel every landing with you and the bounces at altitude. Thanks.
Awesome video Trent. I always hated flying in rough air. When I got my license I always thought I was a bad pilot for not being tough enough for it. It was really nice to see a pilot as accomplished as you say the same. Lol. So thanks for that!
It's a blast to follow along on Google maps to these landing strips. When you brought up Warren I was like "there must be a Warren airstrip near the middle fork, that's a haul" and then there you were in town. Even caught a glimpse of the road I take from Warren to Big Creek area. That drive is a slog.
If there is a cooler and more enjoyable way of living, I haven't seen it yet. This is really inspiring. Thank you for sharing your adventures and the amazing places you go. Cheers!
That was an excellent use of 27min. Ive been marking all these spots on my google maps so that i can one day possibly fly into some of them myself. Idaho is just plain ruggedly gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.
Stop at Warren (3U1) USFS strip. and grab lunch at the Baum Shelter. When I first started hunting and flying into that area it was known as the Winter Inn. Great country.
Trent I was on the EAA web page for Oshkosh this yr a couple of days ago and low and behold there is you and your plane on the experimental/ultralight page for the STOL demo's.. Love the back country of Idaho! I have friend who is a Firefighter in the Meridian area and his photo's of that country is spectacular! Glad you guys had a good time!
RE: "Rough Air" - @Trent, that's just mother nature providing some free energy dude! Have flown gliders out of Mackay up into the area you were in for this part of the flight and have registered climb-rates over 1500fpm (again, with no engine) when the thermals are really rippin'. Fun times, and stunning terrain!
I always watch your videos...luv 'em. I've been flying tail draggers for 50+ years and one thing I'm always impressed with is your landings...really smooth whether on dirt or pavement. You and the Freedom Fox are "as one", great job! I do know that no one makes perfect landings all the time (and if I was you I would edit out the "bad" ones) but I'm guessing you have a very high percentage of good ones. Rock & Roll Mr. Palmer! JLH/Sparks, NV
The Bernard to Lower Loon is one of the missions on the old Flight Simulator. It was interesting to see the actual terrain, and even though Flight Sim is now all that detailed I was impressed with it's accuracy. Thanks Trent. Great video.
I relay like your videos. Meany moons ago, before light sport was a thing, I built a Challenger. I was also an acquaintance of Jim Millett, the guy who started the kit plane "Hornet." I had to sell my plane shortly after I finished it (I needed the money), always wanted to do it again but I just never had the money. Anyway, I don't mean to be rude, BUT! "Ruff Air" I loved that about flying... it reminds you that there is something between you and the ground that's holding you up there.
Big fan of the smart decision making when it came to winds. Too many people have get-there-itus and just have target fixation on landing no matter what. Great to see the good example you guys demonstrated.
Awesome video. Love seeing you fly around that area. My grandpa passed away in a plane crash 8 minutes outside of big creek landing strip in 95, be safe out there my guy! Thanks for the awesome videos and scenery!!!
I flew nearly the exact same route on July 24th (2021). I saw a twin otter at Cabin Creek loading smoke jumpers. Cabin Creek was the most intimidating airstrip I saw on that trip, with a turn to a short final approach and no go around options. This was a scouting trip for me in my RV-9. Planning to come back with the 172 to do some camping, maybe after the smoke clears. It was was very smokey.
Nothing much better than watching a long TP video and way better than mowing the lawn an hour ago! Keep producing them Trent and I'll keep watching them.
Agreed the music is great, but, I checked out the link he gives for music content... unfortunately it is a paid subscription service for content makers. So🤷♂️
One of the things that Trent does better than anyone is integrating music into his videos. He always seems to pick a track that fits the mood of the video, and blends it perfectly with the other audio. Very nice overall.

Being able to treat an airplane like an adventure Jeep is so cool
Whenever I see the notification come through that you've posted, it makes my day.
That looks like so... Much fun! Some day, I'm gonna have to get myself a kitfox and go flying with you guys.
Hello, I have seen all your vlogs🤩
I think that would be a great collaboration
i agree.. one day i wanna get involved in the adventures of flying
I’d love to see that!!
This aged well haha
LOL...of course a pilot would call a hitching post a "horse tie-down"
🤣
For a bush pilot ... too much horse power is when the horses grassing in the middle of the runway won't move, even after 4 very low passes!
BEST 27 minutes this sunday morning.. Regards and keep FLYING SAFE.
I watch UA-cam more then cable tv so I love 30 min or longer videos
I SECOND THAT EMOTION... Any vid under 20 is a cartoon short, like in the old daze... 25:00, I call BS, waste my time, harumph...
Broadcast TV is DEAD. Boring, contrived reality nonsense is for the birds. High-detail YT content is the future, now.
FWIW that metal drag thingy is called a "Fresno Scraper" and is what was used to cut roads, dams (and airports) back in the dim times. Usually pulled by a team of horses or mules.
In that part of Idaho, most things are pulled by mules or horses. Don't discount it.
Folks like you think there aren't still places that exist where things are still done that way, but there are.
This guys lifestyle is unreal. Talk about living life to the fullest! I live Vicariously through you man! love the visuals
"vast knowledge of fishing"....great video. Thanks
DUDE I Needed this today. Wife is sick 2 of my elderly Neighbors are sick. Just me here to take care of them all. SO HAPPY I CAN DO IT! Feel blessed to abole to do it. This video just gives me a few mins of down time. Thanks for that. What a true blessing. God Bless !!
Even 10 minutes away to clear the mind makes a HUGE difference. Thank you Trent!
I felt like I had been watching for a while and when I saw that I still had 15 minutes left, I couldn’t be happier
TRENT, hope you're busy workin'!
Trent where is the better half haven't seen her for a while great vid aircraft looks good .nice on Sunday morning Freedom Fox with a good coffee and beautiful country . God bless be safe up there
What a cool series Trent! That Snake is scarry!!! Thank you so much from Switzerland! Daniel
Sounds like Mike Patey will have Everyone's back with Scrappy!!
I can't wait until that beautiful monstrosity flys.
@@Josh-dr3fj I hope he's registering patents. The big manufacturers will be taking notes!
@@stotheh you know he has, he hasn't made that kinda money by not patenting his designs
Looks like a fun day of flying!!
Super dope flying!
With the exception of that new intro, this is probably THE BEST video you have made in a long time, Trent! I didn't know they still made Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. Great video!
Yea PBR and the old intro are the best...
Next time you're up near McCall, fly up around Loon Lake. There is a crashed WWII bomber up there, not sure if you can see it from the air, but cool nonetheless
Looks like so much fun!!
"Its like landing at my house" - Best line in the video!
Amazing. The Middle Fork and the Frank Church Wilderness is magical. One of my favorite places on this planet.
That “elevator shaft” was Wave, a beautiful thing for sailplanes.
I doubt it was wave, when you look at the max altitude he reached it was still quite a bit bellow the cumulus clouds around him, making it impossible to catch have laminar flow around him. Also you can see that when he says « it’s quite chilly around here » the plane is still bumpy/in the middle of turbulences, again impossible in wave. So most likely it was just a good thermal :)
But yes wave is amazing for gliders :)
@@tibvl7113 maybe, from my flying experience it looked like wave.
Good to see your videos are back to the good ol’ style !

It’ll eat your lunch if you’re not careful 🤠
America is a beautiful country man. You can just own a plane and just fly without being afraid of anything. Wow!! that's heaven right there!
Just a little rattle snake to keep you on your toes.
Honestly, love love love the longer videos. The additional work it takes is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you Trent!
I live in McCall and watched your videos of the back country strips.
Nicely done!
Watching this is better than anything out there! Thanks for sharing. You are blessed.
WOW! Brings back so many memories. I sold my C-172 straight tail in 2019; flew it in the back country of Idaho many times during the 24 years that I owned it. Somewhat limited in terms of power but was able to fly into and camp at many of the back country airstrips.

You never have to feel like you should apologise for a long video Trent. Loved every second of all that gorgeous countryside! Thank you!
25 mins., and hour and 25 mins., I’d watch it all! These videos are like my dream flying. Awesome! Thank you!
I've flown Cabin Creek before. Good memories! Thanks for the post!
The sky is super clear up there, SE Idaho is so smoked out right now with 5 mile visibility.
Nothing wrong with 30 min. of great flying, rivers, back country, fishing and camping.
I saw this video when it first came out, but had to watch it again just to relax. Wish I could give it another 👍👍.
Don’t know if you saw it, but your drone flew past an eagle on the left at the 22 minute mark. Really loved this one Trent, all the different landings were fantastic. You are so lucky to have such a verity of places you can land. As for the snake, why didn’t you catch it and throw it on the fire. Such a waste. 👍👍👍👍👍
You’re probably one of the only UA-cam’s where I watch the videos all the way trough and still enjoy it
👍👍
Hey Trent. Love your you tube. I grew up on the middle fork. My dad was the ranger at Thomas creek and Indian creek guard station. On the Thomas creek Landing there was a lodge called Harrah's lodge....from the Vegas Harrah's Casino. Yes they brought in multiple cars...including a couple Model T's.
"That's how wives' tails become wives' tails" *Shakes Trent's prop*
I'm not sure why that sequence got such a chuckle from me.
I have to say Trent.... 21:43 I am so jealous of that fishing spot!! I wish I owned a Kitfox or even a SuperCub, I am just flying threw your videos!!
Good to see you flying! Stay safe and having fun!
Hi Trent,
This was another great video. With great content, 25 minutes is fine. I really enjoy your videos. It was a place I will never get a chance to see if not for your videos.
Thank you for sharing.
Take care,
Be safe.
Great radio comms. Really good coordination and judgement.

Beautiful country…thanks for flying thru it.
It's a blast to follow along on Google maps to these landing strips. When you brought up Warren I was like "there must be a Warren airstrip near the middle fork, that's a haul" and then there you were in town. Even caught a glimpse of the road I take from Warren to Big Creek area. That drive is a slog.
“I hate rough air” hey he’s one of us! -me every summer flight 🤣
Love it! Flying and flyfishing, it does not get any better. Thanks for taking me along.
I like the frequency with which you mention eating!
Love that you’re getting into fly fishing .
I always enjoy your videos! Beautiful scenery, flying, and your music is always awesome! Thanks!
If there is a cooler and more enjoyable way of living, I haven't seen it yet. This is really inspiring. Thank you for sharing your adventures and the amazing places you go. Cheers!
I love the good judgement on the audible!

That looks amazing! Thumbs up from a brazilian PA18 pilot!
Got a cold, so it's sniffles, chicken noodle soup and Trent Palmer videos.
Very nice. Love the remote Idaho spots.
Liked this vid for all the take offs & landings.as well as flying.
Love the one wheeling and of course the flights

Awesome mate, camping is always so much fun but doing it from an aircraft is next level! 27 mins of good quality entertainment, cheers Shoey 👍🏻
Sweet video! Landing at 5:58 = butter!
The Bernard to Lower Loon is one of the missions on the old Flight Simulator. It was interesting to see the actual terrain, and even though Flight Sim is now all that detailed I was impressed with it's accuracy. Thanks Trent. Great video.
EPIC, EPIC, EPIC. All of it. Thanks so much Trent, for allowing us to tag along. Loved it.
Great vid! Nice length for a Sunday!
Got the hat....it is wonderful. As a hat collector, major props for the construction.
Fly on!

One of your best. Not even sure why, but really liked this one.
Thanks for the inspiration, guys! Great footage and commentary.
I look forward to your videos. Love my new hat! Keep up the great flying! Thanks for being real and genuine.
That was awesome! Your so lucky to be free to fly like that and experience camping like this. Loved watching
one of your best video's, cant get enough of your back country exploring, Many Thanks for sharing
Fly fishing was my thoughts exactly. Nice show really enjoyed it.
It's a hitching post. If you notice there is still a lot of them around in Idaho. Cool video.
Awesome video. Love seeing you fly around that area. My grandpa passed away in a plane crash 8 minutes outside of big creek landing strip in 95, be safe out there my guy! Thanks for the awesome videos and scenery!!!

LOL @ Horse Tiedown. Love it. Technically you're not wrong. In Tx we call it a Hitching Post
One of your best videos, it looked like great times!
I’d watch 25 minutes any day with content like this. Keep it up Trent!
I like the Trent Palmer action..never a dull moment.
Great video! Keep them coming! Keep it local! It takes time! Don’t sweat it! Everyone has trouble getting Workers! Your good, don’t sweat it!
used to fly into all those strips on my old flight sim all the time, that’s way cool.
Your music rocks!!! Will you make us a playlist? Please.
Agreed the music is great, but, I checked out the link he gives for music content...
unfortunately it is a paid subscription service for content makers. So🤷♂️
Hi Mr Trent, nice watching you flying... I subscribed to your channel.🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Thanks Trent! I appreciate the comments on rough air! I'm the same way afa fear of heights but fly a PPC in wide open and hate rough air!
love your videos no matter how long. beautiful seanrey looks great in the canyons keep the videos coming we all love them thanks.
