First Solo Backpacking with my Dog - Trinity Alps Wilderness - Granite Lake

[@jeremygoldberg2952]

Hi Kyle, nice video. Just a quick tip with the Saywer squee. If your filter is fully dried, before you leave for a trip, always squeeze at least a half liter of tap water through before you leave for any trip and you won't have any issues. I have only made that mistake once and had the same problem as you.

[@johnj620.]

👍👍 Yeah..., buddy..!!!

[@Woodswalker1965]

Cute dog, beautiful spot. Ya my dog always buries her food when camping as well👍

[@cliffordwright342]

I’ve resubscribed. I lost your channel when my iPad died. Always enjoy your videos now it’s time to catch up. Amazing country your in. Greetings from Ontario Canada

[@loneranger4113]

Very cool. Looked like a nice place to camp and fish. Thanks for sharing. Good job with the video, filming and editing.

[@elmarhilgart3552]

Looks like a nice trip, beautiful landscape. Its always nice to have a dog with you.

[@brianadventures9622]

Thanks for taking us along, great dog! I soak my filter in white vinegar at home and it flows real well afterwards. Also if it's been awhile I'll soak it in tap water at home before the trip to get it flowing better.

[@BurleyOutdoors]

Thanks for watching a good info!

[@campingadventureswithcarl9493]

Beautiful area - thanks for sharing- seems like just the other day you were sitting on the side of a canoe with ranger joe…lol…looking forward to more..I’m ringing the bell 🔔 🪓🪵🏕

[@bushcraft_crush2455]

Great video! Beautiful scenery and Luna 👍🏻

[@wendyoutdoors2230]

Always interesting taking your dog. We took a young dog to the Yukon from Vancouver island many years ago. She hardly ate but buried dog biscuits in every campsite we stayed in! Often think they’re wondering why the heck we don’t stay home where it’s dry and comfortable. Ever wonder yourself?

[@sunbunny1236]

Nice trip nice fish. Sorry you had so much rain. 👁🦉👁

[@shaungallagher9025]

Great video Kyle and really like that you guys had fun even with that bit of rain. Look forward to watching more adventures 👍

[@BrLambert]

Beautiful country and love the streams, Burley seems to have calmed down a lot from the last time.

[@JustinMcKinneyhiker]

Your dog is beautiful !!! What amazing country ,I can't wait to get up there ( the long drive from the Bay Area keeps me to the Emigrant and Yosemite) but that scenery is stunning !!!

[@ShinyStickEC]

pretty close to the PNW there bud ;) glad the it worked out with Luna, I was so happy when I found out my pup would be good on the overnighter!

[@alphawhiskyadventures]

Nice trip. My dog likes hiking, but not if it is thundering. She got spooked once on the SHT and it has stayed with her ever since.

[@angrybuck1]

beautiful and great fun thanks :)

[@BackcountrywithShaughn]

Awesome to see you get out with your packmate~ Thanks for sharing!

[@juangutierrez1883]

Nice I was just at the Trinity alps on Saturday , what’s the name of your tarp?

[@BurleyOutdoors]

I call it Old Blue. Used to be blue in color prior to a lot of camp smoke. I made it about 6 years ago and it’s still going strong.

[@Raevenswood]

11:48 Luna is not having the fog weather haha

[@everyoneknowsadave3580]

Hopefully you didn’t backflush your sawyer with tap water at home … there’s some theories out there that chlorinated / fluorinated tap water can damage the liddl tubes in the filter … because of that I flush mine with jugged distilled water and it’s seems to keep truckin’ … thanks for sharing your adventure with luna … great video 👍👍

[@BurleyOutdoors]

Thanks for watching and interesting info. Thanks!

[@fastinradfordable]

I live in a dome in the woods off swift creek. I run there with my amazing 13yo dog.

[@Twobarpsi]

Great hike! Do you worry about ticks for your dog?

[@BurleyOutdoors]

I have not found any on her and in my other trinity alps trips I have not seen any.

[@Twobarpsi]

@@BurleyOutdoors that's good! Here in the Northeast, they are a huge problem! Really limits what you can do outdoors unfortunately.

[@ginjjiigok364]

it's hard to stay dry tent camping> having an extra tarp or a change of clothes can be the deference between life and death

[@viktor.egelund]

What's wrong with the local running water by your campsite?

[@BurleyOutdoors]

With the number of campsites and animal droppings around the trail that I saw on the way up I was not going to drink the water with out some kind of filtration. Waterborne illness is no fun. Thats what I meant by that comment during the video. If I was really desperate I would have boiled it on the fire but I had enough.

[@justwalking1167]

Did your Sawyer freeze? Was this shot this past weekend?

[@BurleyOutdoors]

It never got that cold on the trip for it to freeze. I must have used it last time and not cleaned it when I got home. I thought the sports cap use the other water bottle as a back flusher would work but it’s no where as good as the sawyer syringe. Yes it was this past weekend

[@justwalking1167]

@@BurleyOutdoorsthought so. Weather pattern looked familiar to what I saw in Desolation this weekend. I froze a Sawyer once and moved to the Be Free and have never looked back. Glad to see you getting out with the dog. She seems to be a good trail dog. Not freaking out and running ahead. Keep em coming.

[@LETSgoBRANDON08.]

Filter might have been frozen put in a bag and place inside of your coat for a bit

[@BurleyOutdoors]

It was not cold enough to freeze it. But I figured out what happens. If they sit around dry for a long time sometimes they will dry up. Pre trip now I soak filters in a bowl of water for a day. It helps open up the holes and lets it flow better.

[@LETSgoBRANDON08.]

@BurleyOutdoors thanks for the tip must appreciated👍🏼

[@ginjjiigok364]

Moving water above 6k feet in nor cal is pretty safe to drink from my exp

[@ginjjiigok364]

should have an old school set up and be boiling water

[@robertdean5327]

Love your dog. Hate your short shots. Your fashion dates back to 70’s Looks ridiculous

[@BurleyOutdoors]

Lol thanks for watching! They are 5 in inseams not that bad. I have thought about going to 3 in ones but thought that would be too much. You will be happy the next video that I'm putting out I have long pants on the whole time.

[@robertdean5327]

I always love to get a response That means my comment hit home. Thanks for that So satisfying!

[@Raevenswood]

@@robertdean5327 yes you successfully trolled. You should be proud of yourself as obviously you are.
