    After watching this, I’m convinced I’ll never be able to exhaust what Colorado has to offer. Thank you for your work!

    Fantastic video. Great footage. We hiked the Wall Lake loop counter-clockwise July 10, 2023. Less snow. :) Keep up the good work.

    Bros an artist! Lovely work as always.

    I was a backcountry wilderness guard there in the early 90's and I can't shake how much beetle kill has happened. It's devastating
  • @jacob33drake
    Cinematic AF bro !! Been missin your videos ❤️

    Holy Fuck! Outstanding work gents, on par with many other, much more popular channels - in fact this is a better backcountry video than most I've seen on those channels. This is yet another incredible Wilderness Area (American's best idea, not national parks) and another sterling example as to why it is in fact the spectacularly diverse Rockies of Western Colorado, so many different landscapes, colors and shapes, that ultimately makes the strongest case as the best section of the entire Rocky Mountain System. Flat Tops is supremely underrated and a fantastic geological example of an uplifted plateau, its lushness is such a contrast with the rest of Western Colorado where Grand Mesa underlines the mighty Colorado Plateau with its psychedelic, colorful desert mountains, canyongs and monoliths.
  • Great video. Really draws you in to the experience. At 14:38, I was even annoyed by the sound of the mosquito which seemed like it was buzzing in my ear.

    Saw your Capitol Peak video from a while back - gave me some good perspective on the scrambling difficulty. What time of year did you summit?
