Is this the line that was used for the filming of the movie "Emperor of the North". That was a great movie and it was filmed in a very scenic area like this.

Nature reclaims

Looks abandon to me

Saw an ad online for free training. Would be interesting doing that as an Aleut who grew up in Anchorage snowboarding and going in camping Van trips with the family.

Video is great except for the music, please just make it low.

Beautiful video. FYI, the railway bridge over the river is a truss bridge, not a trestle bridge. 😊

Similar to the Ota guu Bike Trail

I love doing this type of stuff , I have done this all over Tennessee and Georgia ; great vid !!

The locomotives from this line now sit in the desert near Ocatillo in Southern California next to Interstate 8. Kind of sad, really.

👋 👍

Wow, what a story! Gonna watch it with my boys tomorrow.

Very nicely done! We live across the street from that RR, just below Horseshoe Bend. The small tunnel just above Black Canyon is partially collapsed but otherwise or stretch is pretty clear. I'm not a runner but have thought about how fun it would be to travel it on a small railcar.

Where did you start and end, approximately. I'd like to hike it.

Did you see any rattlesnakes on that hike?

That Yurt is amazing. Nice trip too.

great video, should have more views than it does 🤷🏻‍♂️

I always wanted to rail cart the tracks from banks up however you can see that massive slide just a few miles north of banks from the hwy. I have rode the thunder mountain line from Horseshoe Bend north to Banks as well as west to Montour. I wish they would revive the railway. Too bad they pulled the tracks from Cascade to McCall. As a kid on your way north on hwy55 we would see the train running from time to time. At least once a year it would derail and dump a train car or two of lumber in the river.

Hey I followed your videos but is there any chance you can contact me? I'm near arvonne now and I have some important questions I appreciate it

Great video

I live in Tomahawk about 20 to 25 miles east of Timm's Hill. Been there a dozen times. Never thought anyone except official park personnel/rangers were meant to/allowed to climb that metal tower, but I could be wrong. It never even occurred to me to try and climb that one, the other wooden one next to it is plenty high enough for me. In late September and early October the view of all the tops of the trees below turning colors from up there is inspiring. You should check out Copper Falls State Park in Mellen, WI about an hour and a half north of Timm's Hill. They have a lookou tower there as well. Also, if you like disc golf, there's a great course in Red Wing, MN at the top of Memorial Park with a great scenic overlook of the whole town and the Mississippi river from up there.

Great video!!!

Nice!!! Did you get your CDL prior to applying?

kent----what is your running career like ?

13:38 -what is that ?

What a rad adventure for you guys! See any bighorn sheep up there?

Attempting this next week, super helpful pov man, thank you

Beautiful scenes. Well done.. the hikers are probably afraid that after reaching the summit, you might come back down bombing the trail. Lol

I could have done that! Camped at Big Eric's Bridge State Forest Campground near Skanee in 2007 and assumed by looking at the map that Mt. Arvon simply couldn't be reached without a 4wd with at least ten feet of ground clearance. Oh, and I've seen the movie "Deliverance". Just sayin'. Awesome drone footage!

Was just there. Remember that rockslide too.

A hill maybe

Nice video, Kent. I was thinking about taking a bike up Elbert, but parking the bike somewhere along the way up and retrieving it on the way down. Can you recommend a good spot to ditch the bike? I assume near where the tree line ends?

I've caught up on your State summits. Enjoyable! It had occurred to me if you do all 50 that will include epic Denali. Stay alive on that one 👍

you did it easy way

I wish there were good tracks for a guy to take a rail bike or cart on, for a day of riding near Boise. This line appears to be a short ride. Imagine how awesome if you could plan a trip from Nampa to McCall and back. Lots of sight seeing and camping opportunities. :)

Yo, did you end up fishing Trail Canyon Res? How as that? Shoreline have open spots? I heard there's a lot of bushes

I want to climb Mount Hood, but I can’t

What an experience. Too bad more people can't enjoy it.

Fyi, I've been enjoying also inspired watching some of your older peak ascents. It's fun to watch you and your brother on these trips. Reminding of my youthful vigor 30+ years ago heading out with friends on peaks and long hikes. I got hit in AB, Canada with Lyme Disease 10 years ago. Lots of adult ticks in the Cdn Rockies: np, pull them off after a check. No one ever told me about the tiny poppyseed sized nymphs you don't see; nor classic really common onset symptoms. I got the 2 to 6 weeks of serious flu NO chest problems PLUS drenching night time sweats. Those go away and then serious sh!t starts. Wasn't treated for a year. Thus ended life as I knew it. But I'm inspired by this vid. Why not with a friend take a flight and then heli to a high remote peak and bivi a couple nights? Might never do it, but it's possible and attainable. PS You might have been lucky so far with winds idk. In a previous decade, a friend & I hiked Windy Peaks a few hours from here and could lean into the wind at an angle for support and not fall down. Car in the lot was shaking too. Fun, once. PSS You are very good at video production. Best.

You missed the best part of the drive through the Kewanau. How did you miss the Brockway Mountain Drive? Liked your video

7:33 The drone footage is cool!

Great video. Our family got to take the train ride many years ago, it was great as like you, I have driven Highway 55 many many times. So the different prospective from across the river was great.

My grandfather was a train engineer, I've loved trains all my days, I love seeing them and hearing them,I loved riding on them, I miss them so much.

hi great video i have been wanting to climb this peak for a bit now and i was wondering if you could answer some of my questions. 1) are ice axes and crampons necessary? i am thinking of climbing this mid to late summer, do you think spikes and poles will work? what is the necessary gear for this trip? 2) how is the hike up huckle Huckleberry Creek to princess lake? you said it was bad but how bad? 3) i am a hard rock climber but i have never gone mountaineering, is there any tips you would give me? 4) when did you leave princess lake to summit? 5) i am thinking of doing this solo, any tips for me? please and thank you this is really useful

I have heard tell of folks with property adjoining abandoned RR ROWs that view the ROW as their property (maybe it did revert, I am not a lawyer), so the care you exhibited in those areas with "active" properties near the rail seems like a good idea to me.

The drone footage above Mt Arvon is great. The weather and clear skies really helped out!

Bucket List

Might have missed it but when did you do this? Thinking about doing this in early April on my way to the eclipse. I wondered about skiing one of the chutes down into the valley

Must be the branch to Cascade, ID?

Very informative video! Is it safe to camp there?

Thanks for a great video. Still remember the Volkswagon-sized boulders and giant spiders on the way up!
