- We climbed some mountains to prepare for this but climbing 10,800 feet in one day on the Cactus to Clouds hike will forever be a major accomplishment in my life.
Backpacker.com's list of America's Hardest Dayhikes.
Several are just long hikes, not necessarily hardest so it makes this hike seem even harder.

Much respect Jay - this trail is Baruuuutal and many don't make it. Great planning on your part and thank you for showing some of it. Looked like an amazing day!
Are you planning on attempting it? It's a doozy of a day and still my highest elevation gain in one day.
@@JayWandersOut probably not! Lol
Thanks for posting videos you deserve more views. The videos relax me especially the music you use.
Thanks! I think you'll appreciate the next two videos as well. The trip had such amazingly beautiful views there's a lot of music overlayed over them.
Awesome! The whole video and the music is very relaxing. Thank you.
Thanks Jay for sharing. On my bucket list, since I am from San Diego and I have family in Palm Desert.
If your family can hike from the tram station to the top o fSan Jacinto that would be a great outing. That way you'll have a ride back down as well. Cell service was mostly not there at the bottom tram station so hard to call for a ride.
I know that trail well. Harder to skip the tram and hike back down it (and to Ramon ave... not the museum). We used to get a tram ride for "free" from the top, but its changed in recent years.
Yeah, hiking back down was not on my agenda after all that. It would have been a 40 mile day with 21,600 feet elevation change, one true whopper of a day. It was hard enough hiking down to tram after the summit. They crammed us tight in that tram! I wonder if they'll charge more these days because they can probably only fit 5% of the people if they want 6 feet apart.
Congrats, planning to this in the fall. Great tips at the end of the video
Another great video. What a whopper of a hike so much elevation change. Thanks for sharing. ATB
I never imagined I'd do that in one day. Most people I talk to here at home have no clue what climbing even 1000 ft feels like so they don't appreciate it.
Well done!
Nice work Jay! I've been waiting for you to put this out since you mentioned it to me in Cascade Locks. Impressive!
So much footage to still go through. It's crazy.
@@JayWandersOut I'll be waiting for it!
Great video Jay. It's another thing on my "must do" list.
Totally worth it and worth bragging to everybody about later.
Hi hello Jay! Thanks for this video. That's one tough hike! Hope you are doing well these days.
Yes, still at my sister's home and probably gained a few pounds. I'll hit the road again very soon!
What a beautiful hike, nice photography
awesome video Jay a beautiful trail with awesome views .
Thanks. Sadly most of the first 4 hours was just plain dark so not much to film but we had the absolute best weather on this day.
Looks like fun! Thanks.
I think it's funny how many snakes we probably walked right on by.
Wow, wow, wow......I am a chicken......Mt. Whitney -done, Angel’s Landing in Zion-went as far as the chains, Half Dome-will watch you video and that is enough for me...
But there are 2 places to hold onto here. :) It's definitely not for everyone.
Very impressive hike. Kudos!
Thanks! It's one hike I'm definitely proud of if a person can be proud of a hike that is.
Devil's path in Catskill, great range in Adirondack, pemi loop in NH are my favorites.
I did attempt in september 2017 solo one day hike Mt Whitney started 230 am. At 13,000ft suffered altitude sickness ...descended as quick as possible.
Hope you can try Whitney again. It's an amazing hike for sure. It definitely helps sleeping at 10,000 ft for a couple of days first but altitude sickness is, from my research, unpredictable.
🏔 awesome hike guys 👊
Beautiful content...
Thanks, Michael!
great info on the parking logistics/setup, very helpful! how much is it to leave your car parked in the tram parking lot overnight?
Honestly I had no idea! It looks like reviewers from this year say $8. Not bad really.
Was there a camping site? I'd like to do a overnight.
Good stuff! Were you reminded of your PCT adventure?
Yes! It's so much easier hiking around the summit without a ton nof snow everywhere. This was the first place where I ever post holed down to my hips. Fond memories. Fortunately the weather was perfect this time! Last time it was super windy and cloudy so we could only see in one narrow section.
Have y’all done Potato Chip Rock in Poway?
Nope, never heard of it. Interesting pictures though. I'm really longing for long climbs again these days. I'll probably not make it back out to California for a long while though.
Any plans for CDT or AT or Te Araroa? I’m tryna convince my husband to do TMB next summer & maybe catch some of Tour de France. Oh also thanks for responding. Cheers to you & Pocket Rocket ☺️
How long did it take you from start to finishing at Tram?
We hit the trail at 2:30AM, hit the summit at 1:30pm, hung out for about an hour, then got to the tram at 4:22pm. All together 14 hours.
Too much water! Best to be well hydrated before your hikes and only sip water or suck on a pebble/stone if thirsty while moving; rehydrate afterwards! Enjoy the scenery instead of thinking about the physical!
