You mentioned a stretch without water? What was the furthest stretch without a water source to filter from?
@davebraunlich6 күн бұрын
It was coming down from Virginius Pass towards Telluride. Couldn’t have been more than 10 miles. I just wasn’t paying attention to water because it’s so abundant everywhere else.

Thanks. Didn’t know this specific trail existed. When you got to 0.55 in the video I realized I mountain bike there around that rock outcropping and throughout that area to Hans Flat. I will check out some of this trails other sections. Not able to do all of it. It does run through one of my favorite areas.

It would have been really nice if you would show the trail? Especially when your standing on the top of the highest peak in Arizona ! I like watching peoples hiking videos to see what they are seeing and to get info about the area they are in and to see the beauty. I hope you have taken a lot of pictures for yourself to reflect back ❤

How many impassable, at high tide, zones did you encounter? Did you use tide tables to work around them?
@davebraunlich7 ай бұрын
The only one that I had to wait out was the Oil City Headland. There's a 2 ft tide restriction and it's the one you really need to take seriously. ONP will give you a detailed tide chart when you get your permit.

@davebraunlich Жыл бұрын
I think I started with 1 liter in the bottles upfront and refilled along the way. I used tablets to treat the water to save time. I really can't remember how many calories I took in, but probably like 200-300 per hour. If you're thinking about going for it, just don't do it when there's 15 hours of darkness!

I'm sure you've heard that SNP is 'easy'. That is mostly true, but there are still plenty of climbs and rocks. I didn't take spikes but wish I had them a couple times. Also, be ready for it to get very cold at night. Hope you enjoy it!
