That's good to include information about when the footage was shot, exactly for those reasons that people want to get ideas about current conditions. One time I asked Kraig Adams about it and he just snapped back like "dude, it says right there when I posted it". Maybe he didn't realize people can post videos from years ago if they with to. Oh well...

What a great rendition and great memory of a place at which some of us spent so much time. The hut still looks the same. What so many people often refer to as 'back in the day', some of us MCA members would spend Thanksgiving up there by skiing in and hauling small sleds, loaded with food including a turkey. As you may know, the 'Bomber Glacier' got its name because some military aircraft crashed on that glacier and is still there. One one occasion I pulled one of the light bulbs, took it home and hooked it to a battery. It still worked, which is amazing after a 'landing' like that. Keep up the joyful reports : - )

good show , well photographed , glad you enjoyed the hike , a little farther up the hacher pass road is "Arch angle trail" check it out , if you continue up the road to summit lake and decent down towards the Willow side of the pass you would enjoy that as well .

That slog of a hike, makes me think of Gates of the Arctic National Park and what I have heard about how it is backpacking through there. You guys did a great job getting through the hike and showing us the beauty of the place. I hope those stings didn't stick around too long!

Adam and Kathryn,...we had 50 push-pins in our USA wall map (of the "Lower 48") before your Alaska trip. We had to buy more push-pins after watching your Alaska videos. There are 10 new pins around Anchorage alone! THIS is one of them 05:47. Kathryn, glad to see you handling the wasp event with outward calm, cool resolve.

Another incredible video! Bummer about the wasp stings! I got my first sting (on my neck!) a couple months ago just sitting at Rodeo Beach after a hike in the Marin Headlands and it HURTS! I was a big baby about it, so you're a dang trooper being as cool and calm as you were after 3 or 4 stings! Can't wait to see where your next adventure takes you!
