Unfortunately, the Trail Canyon Trail was destroyed by Tropical Storm Hilary last year. It was one of my favorite trails on the mountain. To a local, your video title is a little jarring. I had to come check out whether you were really going to hike from Charleston Peak to the tiny town of Mountain Springs, at the other end of Lovell Canyon, near Potosi Mountain. That would have been a truly epic hike. I was wondering whether you'd hike along the spine of the mountains, or go down into Lovell Canyon. (The second option would have been easier, but far more dangerous because you would have had to pass through a little community of people who do NOT like outsiders. They especially don't like anyone but them traveling along their little 4x4 road that comes down from Mount Charleston. They keep it chained off at the entrance from the canyon.)

DID I HEAR 2WD IS OK? Went straight to this trail with my stock fwd hybrid Maverick. Got through well. There is 1 part early on if your heading southish on cottonwood, it's towards the beginning mor or less. Its inclined with some pretty hefty rocks I found to be the most nerve-wracking. I'm sure any midsize or full size truck would have 0 insecurities. Even a maverick tremor would be better suited. Lots of fun, couldn't have found it without you, THANKS!!! @AUSTIN AND SAM LAS VEGAS

Fruit peels tend to dry up and stay on trail as litter. Biodegrading requires moisture and proper conditions that we don’t see too much in the Southwest US. It’s also a hazard to wild life who don’t have the proper stomachs to handle non native food peels or cores. Good rule for hiking and camping - if it’s not native to the area, take it with you ✌🏽❤️

Nice video; Thanks! I hiked up the South trail, and down the North, in about 1992. What I recall are the wonderful smells; the light sound of breezes blowing gently through the pine needles; the sounds of bees and hummingbirds working nearby; and the magnificent views. I remember that just as we came out of the tree line and onto the rocky final climb to the summit, here comes a guy descending on a bicycle! He told me that he had pedaled practically all the way up, and that he was dreading the descent, with all the jarring he expected to encounter. I remember that the North trail includes a few precipitous spots where you dare not slip and fall - but only a few. Oh, and the temperature was perfect. I cannot remember the time of year, but I believe that Las Vegas was hitting highs around 108. That thirteen-hour hike was one of the highlights of my life! I would so love to do it again, but I'm 75 now, so no. But boy, what a memory!

Late to see this but still useful. I'm at Brian Head as I type this. Coverage is still good and, as mentioned, quick, short runs but this type is easier on my old legs, maximum half day. Saturday tic was $39, super cheap and we got $10 resort cash for food which got us a $14 burger and fries for $4. Tomorrow's tic is $29 and I think we still get the $10 credit (still waiting to see). Lodging is cheap this late in the season too, about half of what our usual trip to Mammoth would be this time of year. Screw Mammoth with their outrageous prices and taxes on top of taxes. We'll be back to BH.

Absolutely amazing nice sound. Guys I recommended you visit the himalayan mountains k2 and Nangaparbat view point from one place moses peak. Add this sound in your bucket list. Keep the peak I mentioned to you in future feel himalayan sound. 😋 Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower

Wheeler Pass isn't for people who don't want to scratch their $60k Jeeps. It's for folks who bought a $60k Jeep for it's purpose, off-raoding. The week I bought my GC Trailhawk I went up Wheeler just so I could be the first to scratch it up, before someone else in a parking lot or the dogs did. A trail thats fun but nerve racking is Carpenters Canyon. Never again lol.

@Acrowatz 11 ай бұрын
I second that. The best part of the loop is that it connects to the Wash, so from their starting point it would be about a little over 50 miles loop. They could also use the loop to connect to the Union Pacific Railroad Bike trail in Henderson, or stop half half way through the loop and go to Bootleg Canyon in Boulder City

@@Acrowatz A lot of bicycle riders simply ride for enjoyment or leisure meaning, short distance rides. Those who are actually seeking a good physical work out (burning calories, improving their food intake, to defining their body) they are the ones who desire to do more lengthy rides. Cycling, besides swimming, is one of the safest sports (does the least in wear and tear on the human body) to do. Running/Jogging, all that jarring on the knees, tennis; well look at what becomes of the professionals. Also the consumers who fail to comprehend being fitted to even purchasing the right kind of bicycle is where they are lacking in; knowledge (which also derives from research). Back in 2007-2008 I worked for a Bicycle Corporation. My summary of the purchasing consumers? I believe a lot of them are simply buying retail due to TRENDS. My latest gig in reference to the Cycling Industry; Bike Touring, I even would not mind Bike Packing adventures, but I have two dogs to bring with me. I can do this with hard packed fire roads, pavement, bike paths, to asphalt with my dogs. (Not unless someone comes up with a better product in carrying a medium sized dog other than using a pet trailer) that would handle being able to ride on back country trails.

Brian Head, Lee Canyon and Snowbowl are all pretty simple roads with no crazy cliff exposures. 4x4 or chains will be required though, including Lee Canyon. We see people try to drive up to the mountains every year and get stuck without chains!

@austinandsam 11 ай бұрын
@@dionymartinez1634 it depends on the tires. If Lee Canyon gets heavy snow, they require 4x4 with snow tires OR tire chains. Sam and I have driven up to Lee Canyon to board after major storms with our mud tires and never had an issue but our tires are pretty beefy. Keep in mind there is only a handful of days, right after a huge snow dump, that this applies. If you drive up after a mild dusting or a day after a major storm, 4x4 should be just fine because road crews do a great job at clearing the snow.
