My mom joins me on an epic day hike in The Enchantments, Washington - after car camping at the (wrong) trailhead. 15 hours of hiking, 19 miles/30 km, 5000ft elevation gain, 7000 feet of descent. Will we make it in one day or will we have to do a survival camp?? Plus I share the ten essentials you should bring on every day trip.

    It is nice to have a mother so physically fit,wishing you many such experiences.Awsome shots!😊

    I love and so appreciate how you and your mom kept calm and ‘took it lightly’ in the sense that you didn’t get super upset or angry for the two hour delay. These things do happen and it is SO important to react calmly and relaxed and even laugh about it, because that is the only way to get through it. Not all people are like that, unfortunately.. my husband would just flip and get angry and frustrated so much that I wouldn’t be able to be next to him but also wouldn’t have any other choice, so it’s really important to go with someone like your mom, who is in the same mindset as you and I love how cool she is. Make sense why she has such a cool brave daughter
  • Madison, might I suggest you put in a few Katadyn water purification tablets in your kit, just in case you water filters clogs up. Really tiny. Make sure any tablets you get kill protozoa. Great trip. A head lamp with dual power is also nice. Rechargeable and / or replacement batteries.

    You give such an incredible perspective on nature and adventure! You have so much to offer your viewers who might be unable to get out to these areas

    You and your mom are pretty awesome. You’re very fortunate to be able to experience these adventures with your mom.
  • @BentbrooksRambles
    I have really enjoyed the process of beginning to work my way through your videos. I am off-trail myself, nursing a strained Achilles and partially torn ligaments in my foot, so living vicariously through your adventures has been delightful. I hope your channel thrives and enables you to do all you wish!

    Hiking is like an amazing first date that you won't see again - too funny. Great hike, as always your natural reaction is perfect 🥰

    We are in our 70s and hubby has been in a rescue group and we have hiked since before you were born. The ten essentials are vital yes and we learned it from the Mountaineers. We like REI
  • Good evening Madison & Mom ! What an amazing journey & your video footage was spectacular ! It’s easy to see where you get your sense of adventure & beauty from ! Keep up the great work & keep smiling !
  • @RiDankulous
    The colors of the videos are really nice, as is the wilderness you visit. The best outdoor youtube channels, in my opinion, have great video with really nice color to it.
  • @sarayuki8540
