Having just watched a video on the geological history and composition, your video of the scenery was a nice juxtaposition. I appreciate your adding the names of the landmarks.

Wow, those are some gorgeous sceneries. How long did this hike take you to get to Lyman Lake and how much weight is your pack? I'd love to plan a hike there for 2025.
@ttirremttocs3 ай бұрын
My total moving time, out and back, was 12 hours, so figure 6 hours each way. I probably had about 40 pounds in my pack. Be prepared for the worst mosquito swarms ever at Lyman.

Ironic that I just found this video when I wasn't looking for it. I found your site a couple months ago and today I looked at your list of all your videos. It was fun to find this one as I just went to these tarns a couple weeks ago on August 10th, 2024. This was really fun to see this scenery again. I'm a little conflicted about this location getting more and more discovered and talked about online, but, oh well, it's nice that people can experience this incredibly beautiful place. I suppose the difficulty of the scramble to reach it may keep the numbers of visitors down a little bit. Thanks for posting! I'll be watching more of your videos.

You can continue up the road at the Nordic Center and access the PCT to Josephine Lake, which is another fairly easy hike. I have a video for that on my channel as well.

No old growth, sadly. Have you checked out Rockport State Park? There is a loop trail through gorgeous old growth. Also, Trail of the Cedars at Newhalem has gorgeous old growth cedars.

@@ttirremttocs No I haven't been on either of those trails, but thank you for the suggestions. I live in oregon so I don't get to visit the washington cascades as much i'd like. I am planning on backpacking up to surprise lake though in mid july, I was there once with my hiking club a long time ago. I remember that trail had some really nice old growth and surprise and glacier lakes being really pretty. Another area I really want to explore someday too is the Suiattle river, there is a trail in that area called milk creek which is supposed to go one of the largest western hemlock trees in all of the cascades.
@ttirremttocs6 ай бұрын
@@danielmoung9098 It's my understanding that the bridge crossing the Suiattle River to the Milk Creek trail washed out several years back, so accessing Milk Creek Trail will require a potentially dangerous crossing of the Suiattle River. Ive done the Suiattle River trail up to Miner's Ridge. It looks like you could take the Suiattle River trail to the PCT and then use the PCT to access Milk Creek Trail from the back end, which I have considered.

Your efforts in trying to demonstrate what the trail is like are appreciated. Summit views are fine, but the trail details are important to convey for challenge hikes like P3. I also understand the difficulties in giving the viewers a good idea of the incline of a steep trail with a camera.
