Backpacking to Alice Lake in Idaho’s Sawtooth Mountains

[@tothefullest7148]

We'd never considered Idaho a must travel destination, but this series is changing all of that! Thank you so much for sharing your adventures 😊

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ah yay! That is our goal! Sharing places that may not be as obvious to visit makes us so happy 🤗

[@nls-io]

I've discovered your channel recently but this is mind blowing. You've definitely put a lot of effort in these high quality videos (shots, insights, etc.). But what is the most interesting is to discover these magnificent spots when we are unfortunately spending most of our time home these days. Be safe out there and keep making us dream with your videos!

you're in my neck of the woods, I just got back from the Sawtooths a few days ago, aren't they amazing?? Alice Lake is one of my favorite places in the Sawtooths, it's on my list for next year. Love watching all your Idaho videos! It's a pretty great place. Thanks for sharing! I haven't been able to backpack for the last few years, this was awesome to watch!

I have to say, it’s been a few years since I went camping. This video makes me want to go again.

[@GeminiDiscover]

Great adventure, you guys!! We were in the Sawtooths just a few days before you, but only had time for a day hike. Totally agree that Idaho hikes seem much more sparse than those in Washington -- it truly is a hidden gem!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We looooved the lack of crowds on the trails! Even on a holiday weekend (and Stanley was definitely busy!) What hike did y’all do?

[@GeminiDiscover]

@@AdventuresofAplusK We did the Bench Lakes Trail -- there were campsites there too, but no takers at the time. Also were expecting massive crowds, but pleasantly surprised to have it almost all to ourselves

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We love camping! It's not always the most comfortable, but a lot of fun 😄

[@jonwebb5395]

One of the things that makes Idaho gorgeous is the number of STUNNING mountain ranges in the state. The Sawtooth's are the most well known, and for good reason. The sawtooth's have a huge number of alpine and subalpine lakes, which makes the region beautiful. However, almost everyone goes on the Alice Lake loop, which leaves the vast majority of the sawtooth mountains untouched. In addition, there are several, absolutely stunning ranges in the state, where you can hike for a week and see no more than a few people, because those ranges are so unknown.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We can’t wait to come back and visit some of the lesser known spots. This was a bucket list hike for us and we’re so glad we did it!

[@christinaolds7501]

New subscriber. Love your videos! Just found you guys two days ago and saw "Boise" in a random title on YT. Moved to Boise in November in order to get myself back out into the wilderness. Really haven't in 20 years and now I'm stoked to explore more of Idaho after years in Colorado and northern California mountains. Thank you!!!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hi Christina! So happy to have you join our adventures! ❤️ How are you liking Boise so far? We absolutely looooove Idaho!

[@christinaolds7501]

@@AdventuresofAplusK Really love it here. When watching your video in Boise I felt sorry the city was shut down for your visit compared to how hopping busy it usually is. The market downtown on 8th street in the summer is just glorious and Freak Alley is part of what drew me here. Next time you're here you need to rent bikes for the Greenbelt trail along the river. The city is FULL of beautiful parks, fun nightspots and music.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

It has definitely been a different experience visiting cities right now, but more reason to come back! And we'd love to rent bikes or even tube on the river!

[@loeyminske3459]

I have to tell you, we backpacked to Twin Lakes when we were stationed there and you'll get a kick out of this: First backpacking trip EVER and we were young and stupid, decided to backpack on Friday, so Saturday we packed what food we had in the fridge, pd of bacon, 6 eggs, bunch of potatoes and I don't even remember what else, but to keep it cold we froze a gallon of water and used that!! OMG!! I think my husband took most of the weight and I was a total WUSS! Had a switch back and he ended up taking his pack up and coming back to get mine! At one point I sat down in the trail and he hiked on to see how much further it was (the total hike I think was 3 miles--haha!) and he came back to tell me it was just around the bend and I couldn't get up off the ground with my pack on! Just like a turtle on it's back! Anyway, made him fix ALL the food we brought up so we didn't have to pack it out. What a trip!! We still laugh about it today! Beautiful country and I appreciated it so much more on the way back!! : )

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahaha that is hilarious!!! What a funny memory to look back on and also to learn from 😂 But hey, it sounds like y'all got a good workout and had some dang good food out there! A bit better than dehydrated backpacking meals 😜

[@michaelburt1858]

Great Video! I'm planning a "Solo-Trip" on the loop in early August. I'm going to milk the loop into a 3-Adventure with plenty of nature & photography. Keep Sending Your Videos.

You’re going to love it out there! If you need more help planning check out our website where we have a guide to the route we did. Hopefully it helps! Thanks for watching!

[@gerridevito7443]

How much water did you carry or did you filter water to use. I am considering the full loop as a day hike

[@WhenAdventureKnox]

This might be my favourite video of yours to date. 🥰🥰 Fast paced, tonnes of stuff going on, in a gorgeous setting, and whilst it's not what 'made' the video, the low key set up of it all made it even more impressive. No drone shots or a gimbal use, yet the story was told beautifully. Sawtooth mountains are now firmly on my list of places to eventually visit. Crazy to think last summer we stopped off at Idaho Falls for a mid morning coffee break between Yellowstone and Capitol Reef and we were so close. But when pushed for time we had to pick and choose our stops! (Plus y'know... I didn't know about them till you guys have educated me about them!) Do you both hope to grow the channel to a point where you can travel more/do less of the work that's currently bringing in a stable income, so you don't have to make similar choices? #VeryPersonalQuestion #IgnoreMeIfImBeingTooNosey!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

This made us smile real big! After two vlogs with some pretty cool drone shots, we were kind of bummed to not get to use it (and to have to try to get steady shots by hand...pretty hard lol)! Vlogging backpacking trips is always kind of tricky, but we wanted to bring everyone along anyways! That’s definitely the goal! Not going to lie, juggling a full time job and Adventures of A+K is really, really overwhelming, but we absolutely love doing the vlogs and blog and will do what it takes right now. The dream would be to spend more time in these spots, film more, and also have days to not film and just relax and edit vlogs + write blogs. But for now, we have to pick and choose where to go with the limited time we have for “fun” and prioritize a lot. We are SO thankful to be able to do what we can do now though!

Hi Ken! Once you pass Pettit Lake there isn't really any water until you reach the small lakes right before Alice Lake.

[@watercha23]

What a beautiful hike! I enjoy your entire channel and am always so excited for your next video. I am planning a road trip this summer (Montana, South Dakota and Wyoming) and need to grab a new tripod. Your tripod looks different from the Amazon one you mentioned in your vlogging equipment video. Did you get a new one and do you like it better than the Amazon one that you seemed iffy on? Excited to see where you go next!!!

Good eye! It is a new one! Amazon was actually awesome and gave us a credit even though we were outside the return window! 🙌🏼 This is the one we have now: amzn.to/2Bb1bJK We may have slightly broken it the first day we got it (oops!), but besides that small issue it works great!

Hi Guys - love the video, well done! Heading out there in 2 weeks... was the campsite you found right off the trail? Apparently you had no issues finding one. I am always concerned we won't get something, but suppose you could always make your own! Any other advice on camping would be appreciated. Thanks!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We always get nervous about that too! It was just off the trail and down a short path closer to the water and pretty obviously used many times. We try to always camp on surfaces that you can tell have been camped on before (vs. making a new one, to not further damage the terrain). There were tons of spots, so you should be good! Just make sure you're 200 ft from the water! Have a blast!

[@user-zu7fu6ky9k]

Black bears are common in the Sawtooths but have such a skittish temperament that you rarely have to worry about them. Grizzlies are only present in the very Northern reaches of Idaho. Bring bear mace and don't let the very low possibility of a wild encounter keep you from experiencing the best Idaho has to offer. Plus, I would be more concerned about Moose than anything.

Well damn you came to where I live XD

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Love it there SO much!

[@oadrian3]

Do you have any firearm against intruders like bear or god forbid do you have to worry about any civilians interfering? It might sound weird question but reasonable. Isn’t dangerous to be a couple out in the wilderness?

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

No we don’t have a firearm

[@stargazer5073]
