That was a fantastic film!! I've watched a lot of YT vids on the TMB and this is the best of them all!! Why? Because you two are a joy to watch, Lauren's endless smiling and laughing face was so lovely! I'd love to go hiking with you two! And, your cinematography was the best of all the films I've watched too. I think most rely on GoPros and they don't give the best angles. I'm not sure what you were using but it looked like a DLSR with normal 35mm - 50mm focal lengths, and it makes such a huge difference. You gave endless vistas and panoramas that were stunning. And you also gave great commentary. I'm definitely doing this trek next summer. Thank you for making and posting this film. What a wonderful experience to share between father and daughter, you are so lucky to have that special bond.

I used my iPhone 12 Pro and turned it horizontally so the videos would have a landscape orientation rather than portrait orientation. It worked well for me and was very convenient to have on the front shoulder strap of my backpack so I could take videos easily.

@sunrisesummitadventures5637 5 ай бұрын
Great to hear that you and your daughter are doing the same trek!!! You will LOVE IT! Our packs were about 15 pounds. We had microspikes (which you probably won’t need) along with our phones, batteries and charging cables, toiletries, first-aid packs, two extra shirts, shorts and socks, sweatpants, puffy jacket, rain gear, bed liners, gloves, winter hats, wallets, passports, snacks and drinks. Not having tents, sleeping bags, stoves and large amounts of food like other backpacking trips made a huge difference. Enjoy!!!

I do have a few questions though. 1. How did you keep your hat so white? 2. How much weight did you lose? 3. What was your favorite meal on trail? 4. Did you end up with a trail name?

My responses to your questions are: 1. If you look closely at my last video, you will see that my hat got especially dirty by the end! 2. I lost 15 pounds. 3. My favorite meal was Good To Go's Chicken Gumbo. 4. Many trail names were suggested - and rejected - so I just went with Kevin - hahaha.

@@sunrisesummitadventures5637 Thanks for your honest answers. I'm not looking to lose any weight. We are packing so much food for this trip. The resupply buckets are packed and ready for shipping. We are resupplying at Red's meadows, Muir Trail Ranch and Mt. Williamson Hotel, just like you. It is amazing how much planning goes into a trip like this when you're not from California. We did the Pemi loop last week. We did the entire trip in 3 days including the drive to and from New Jersey. Those were some big miles on some tough terrain, with heavy packs. I know elevation is going to be a huge issue. This is my last question....Is the terrain itself more difficult in New Hampshire, or more difficult in the Sierras?
@sunrisesummitadventures5637 2 жыл бұрын
@@vicmyers431 there was no terrain on the JMT tougher than the stretch of terrain on the Pemi Loop from Galhead Hut to South Twin. However, I was surprised by how much tough terrain there was on the JMT. I would say a good portion of the JMT is a fairly smooth path, but there are many portions where there are softball sized, sharp rocks to walk on that make it difficult and the slope of the downhills certainly is tough on feet. If I had to do the JMT over again, I would do my resupplies at Red's Meadow and VVR only. I would skip MTR (it was not great at all) and would not log the extra miles to Onion Valley/Independence. Of course, that would mean a big food carry but the off-trail miles to Onion Valley were difficult and discouraging.
