@@JonConti thank you for your reply! wasn't sure if maybe it was closed for the winter or anything. I'll be going in a couple weeks. thanks for all the vids!
I’m so glad you posted this! Mom of 3 (1 month old, 5 , 10 ) and we love the outdoors! But need some easier hikes right now and a place to camp (camper/with baby). I’m glad you pointed out there’s parking/camping/easy adventure. Also showing other areas we could go if the kids want a little more of a challenge. Thank you so much! Keep posting 😊
jessica farrias absolutely I’m glad it helped give you an idea that’s why we do this! Definitely check out our ten mile creek and charcoal gulch videos as well. I think those 2 would be kid friendly. Ten mile especially
Thanks Morgan. I thought Ten Mile Creek, Warm Springs, Short Creek, and this one were all equally awesome. This one though I had the most time to shoot, I had the most time to edit it, I had good weather, and it was later in the spring so everything had bloomed. Unlike Ten Creek and Warm Springs which was still really early in the season.
Came to watch this again, this is on our list of family backpacking trails and we camped at willow creek and then drove to the trailhead to see how long it would take and to get a feel for it before our trip and holy smokes what the heck is that resort??? Hahaha I have so many questions...#1 being can I book a cabin online? Ha! Thanks again for this video, even the ranger we chatted with had no idea what trail or area I was asking about. What a wild drive getting there, and had you not pointed out the exact trailhead, I would have assumed it was further down at the William H Pogue trailhead.
@@AdventuringWithNala Ya man, Tascam DR-10L, get one! I'm surprised by how few vloggers have them. They have auto levels and record into the tascam itself, so it's not two boxes, and you don't have to feed it into the camera. You just flip it on, talk, flip it off. Don't mess with settings or anything. They have a limiter so even if I yell or something I get littlle to no peaking. And they're only $200. Everyone has the video mic pro which I do too, but this thing is more useful and lighter. I'd tell every adventure vlogger to buy one of these before a video mic pro.
The saw tooths are cool a cool place to check out if you're ever in the coeurd'alene area is a place called deception creek if you go in spring or late winter the creek exists in summer the creek doesn't exist I heard it had something to with a military science experiment another cool place is huckleberry bay priest lake lower priest lake. I lived in cda for years and another cool place to check out is huckleberry mountain around lake coeurd'alene yes I like huckleberries their delicious another cool place to see is this island on lake pendoriell'e or ponderay i wish I could remember the name of it but it's a cool place to camp or just explore for the day.
Heather Perdue they’re no where near as bad as in Texas! You can get away from them easy if you just go above 5,000 feet in elevation which is real easy to do here
@@JonConti oh out on Guffy bridge loop out by celebration park. It was probably about 9:00ish pm. We were just climbing down the hill. He gave us a warning so we stayed clear and respected its space.
Hey thanks for this really cool video! Question.. im taking my dad on this hike and camping somewhere in the trail. He's scared of rattlesnakes. What is the best way to keep them out of our camp? I also have a dog and would hate for him to get bit by a snake. Thanks again!
Unfortunately I’ve never heard of a way to keep rattlesnakes out of your camp. The only way to avoid them is to get higher in elevation. Pick a hike above 5,000 feet and you’ll miss them. The Warm Springs hike sits right at 5,000, do that one instead.
Hey Jon, thank you for sharing this beautiful video! I was curious, did you see any other campsites in that area? Was your’s hard to find off the trail? Thanks! I have really been enjoying your channel
Hey Rachel, thanks! So there are two sites down in the ponderosa grove I stayed at, very easy to find and there was plenty of room for more. There’s tons along middle fork road you can pull into with your vehicle. The other camping I saw there was down by the creek about a half mile in. At .04 miles you’ll get to the top of trail. Here you can continue along the hillside to the ponderosa grove, or you can take a side trail down to the creek. There’s more sites down there, but they weren’t as pretty as the area I stayed at.
Aric Domke it’s better. I was there a few weeks before this as well and it was rough. I noticed a few potholes had been repaired this time around, and they had the trucks out working on it.
They start rattling when they notice you. I talked to a guy that stepped on one in the morning, the snake bit him before it had time to rattle. This one in the video I surprised cuz I was walking lightly with bare feet, so I was very close when it started rattling. And we had one in the Owyhees that started while we were about 20 feet away. That's the key with all animals out there, if they know you're out there they'll leave you alone. It's when you surprise them (or of course leave food lying around) that you run into problems. So with rattlesnakes, take heavy booted steps in areas with low visibility. They will feel the vibrations and warn you.
The Adventures of Jon & Chad why don’t u or everybody kill em. I was watching Idaho fish and game and a resident called a rattler in in what appeared to be new developing Harris ranch area so police and fish and game came and transplanted. In Texas and Oklahoma where I’ve lived they pay residents to bring dead ones for money. Here it’s like politically incorrect to kill em or something. If u don’t kill em and a little girl comes. CAmping after u wouldn’t that be worse than killing it. A little confused and also understanding if u don’t want to say. Is it kind of like talking to pro hunters vs hunting is bad or what? Thx. I love these videos u do. Can’t stop rewatching. Serious, beautiful and also humor to keep us on our toes. Great vids that my wife kids and I love to watch together thx.
Do you have any questions about Sheep Creek or how to do it yourself? Leave it here!
can you camp here anytime? like can i go now?
@@davidlopez1112 sure! Might be a little snow on the ground

I like that you are reviewing approachable trails that couples who are not mountain climbers are able to find and hike. Thank you from a Boise couple!
Dave Reinhart you’re welcome!
Jon, you obviously saved the best for last. This place looked awesome! Liked it all except for the rattle snakes. Another great video....THANKS

I've always wanted to stay at that resort. I do think you can book it online
awesome video! Keep them coming.
Thanks! Will do!
I wish i lived in idaho, rather than the crowded east coast.
Damn, I have to check this place out. Thanks for more great info.
Your welcome! Great spot. Especially if your in Boise looking for a quick overnight trip
Just found your channel today. Been looking for this exact content. Thanks, keep it up!
Thanks Brian we'll try!
Looks awesome man. Beautiful area and the footage was spectacular. How are you getting such good audio from your GoPro? Sounded great.
Ah. I think I see the lav now haha

@@JonConti you're welcome.
Great....rattlesnakes....I'm headed that way in August thinking I was getting away from the snakes here in Texas!
Heather Perdue they’re no where near as bad as in Texas! You can get away from them easy if you just go above 5,000 feet in elevation which is real easy to do here
@@JonConti they're even on the beaches down here! Looking forward to my upcoming trip to the mountains! I e lived in Idaho twice....I miss it.
Beautiful hike
It was!
Beautiful!!!
Jason Mackesey Fitness ya! It’s a great spot
Wow. Watch out for snakes. It's a dangerous animal. I give you thumbs up.
At least we only have rattlesnakes with their warning system!
👍👍
We literally just crossed paths with a rattler few days ago also. Cool videos
AdventureBlu thanks man. where at? And what time of day?
@@JonConti oh out on Guffy bridge loop out by celebration park. It was probably about 9:00ish pm. We were just climbing down the hill. He gave us a warning so we stayed clear and respected its space.

Planning to visit Idaho mid October. But I’m scared of bears 😮
Don't be! I've only seen one out here :)
Very few bears out there!
What happened with the snake? Did you move your camp, or did the snake go away?
I threw rocks at it until it moved. It was unharmed
Hey Jon, thank you for sharing this beautiful video! I was curious, did you see any other campsites in that area? Was your’s hard to find off the trail? Thanks! I have really been enjoying your channel
Hey Rachel, thanks! So there are two sites down in the ponderosa grove I stayed at, very easy to find and there was plenty of room for more.

@@JonConti Thank you so much! I am taking my best friend on her first backpacking trip. This looks like the perfect first trip for her!
Hows the road by arrowrock now?I went a few weeks back and it was pretty rough
Aric Domke it’s better. I was there a few weeks before this as well and it was rough. I noticed a few potholes had been repaired this time around, and they had the trucks out working on it.
Would love to see you do a video on Langer lake. Vertical but short hike to some awesome alpine lakes. Check it out, Frank Church Wilderness...
We’ll check it out, thanks for the tip!
Hi. Getting into mountain biking and can’t believe the snakes!!! Any advice, how many feet notice do they give u before they start rattling ? Thanks!
They start rattling when they notice you. I talked to a guy that stepped on one in the morning, the snake bit him before it had time to rattle. This one in the video I surprised cuz I was walking lightly with bare feet, so I was very close when it started rattling. And we had one in the Owyhees that started while we were about 20 feet away.

Here’s me eating the one we found in the Owyhees. They’re just harder to kill than you think and if you’re alone and screw up... 😬
Does God love me if I'm gay?
