The right of way thing, while it totally makes sense, just not from an exertion point of view. Hear me out, you are out of breath hiking up a climb, all you want to do is stop, someone is moving quick down hill so you move out of courtesy but really you just need a breather :)

Id say the easiest to hike as well as access for most ppl is probably quandary

Been following you for years and about to do this one this weekend while I’m out and about! Happy Thanksgiving and have a Merry Christmas.

Personally the scariast part about longs peak was descending the homestretch after summiting Its straight down and there are icy areas

Been there done that. Its awesome!

Thanks for a beautiful video of Guadalupe Peak. It was so windy when I went in March 2021.

Thanks for topping us.

Thank You for another very informative and beautiful video! These are still on my list; hopefully summer 2025. Hope everything is going well!

I did this hike, and several others in Guadalupe park at the end of July, and it was incredibly hot during the summer. It is interesting seeing so many people, it was very dead when I was there. It was cool remembering exactly all of your shot locations and my much different feelings as I was climbing.

Great video! And yes the people in Texas are amazing. If you're trying to pursue all of the state high-points or you just like hiking random mountains, I'd recommend giving Borah Peak a try. It's Idaho's highest peak and provides some fun class 3 scrambling on the summit ridge. It's located in the Lost River Range where you can find a ton of other beautiful peaks and views. Absolutely one for the summer though.

I have climbed Guadalupe several times. I don't know what it is about this peak, possibly the carbonate rubble that you have to walk on the entire way, but it is indeed as you point out, a knee killer. It's actually 8751' (you said 7800' but I suspect you simply inverted the first two numbers as your wrist altimeter was correct). Enjoyed the video. Wise not to attempt it in the heat of summer.

Hope you’re well!

Thanks for all the amazing content this year! Hope you have a good time over the holidays and a great start into 2025. Wish you all the best. 💙 Any plans to get out in the Cascades at some point?

Sad this will be your last video of 2024! Always look forward to your posts! Hope you and Aria have a wonderful holiday season!

My home state ❤ I feel like it’s the Tx summer heat that gives it a bad rap, it ran me off 😂

Good timing for me. In Carlsbad now and plan to hit Guadalupe tomorrow

bro hit the uno reverse card and flew to texas from colorado to climb mountains

Thanks for the great hike. I have always been curious about this since I live in Texas. Haven’t watched in a while but you are looking fabulous!

Loved this hike. Being from upstate NY, was shocked to see the mountain lion warning at the trailhead!

Heyy welcome to my home state! Glad you got to the literally top of the state.

another great video! Always look forward to the next one!

Stopped into Guadalupe Natl Park on road trip down to Texas for the Solar Eclipse. Bummed we didn't have time to bag the peak with these amazing views but a beautiful place in an odd location nonetheless!

my first peak...will always have a place in my heart

Thanks for this. Will travel from NM to do this soon.

Island girl here. Definitely ignore the people who are giving negativity. That pilau is across all the islands and honestly does come from hurt of seeing things change and be disrespected over the years. But if you good tourist then it’s okay. Da kine, If you respect the aina, care for the people and are prepared to be as safe as possible then you should receive back respect. This video was also nice for those who can’t go do the hike safely anymore. To experience it with you without paying choke price on a helicopter ride as the only other way of seeing.

Going hiking Elbert in December… do you recommend spikes and double boots ?

Where did you get that sick shirt/jersey?

Awesome! I know it's been several years, but for me, fun to watch! Congrats on all 58!!

You mean Mt. Evans, not the uncool woke name!

Really appreciate this list. I'm from Iowa. We hike Colorado every year but never hiked a 14er until July 2024. I was 61. Felt great! And believe your ranking is dead on. Thank you!

As a local, this is one of my favorites to go to.

Nice outing ! 14 exposed-ass miles and 5500 ft of gain, and Meeker and Longs Summits all to yourself. The Mtns were merciful. I’m impressed and thanks for the video.

Thanks!

Quandary or Elbert. Which is the tougher?

Big thank you

Very beautiful and jaw dropping scene . Thanks for posting 👍👍👍. Always safe and happy hiking.

The scenery at 2:38 is like taken out of a fairy tale. Gorgeous.

It should be YOU running for the presidency!

Rad loop and awesome exercise, nice job! Peace and love

Nice to see you back in New England. You've been at this shit for awhile mang, excellent consistent hike content.

Hell yeah. Hope to see you out in the mountains of co next summer

good stuff brother!
