GRIFFITH PEAK HIKE MT CHARLESTON, NEVADA

[@WithinHikingDistance]

Those views, absolutely amazing! It is nice you had shade on the way despite the big fire ravaging the area. Great tips on altitude sickness, not something to joke with. It was so windy at the top, and the views were stunning! Kudos for doing this strenuous hike Eric, no doubt all your recent hiking made a difference though. Ah, note to self - bring a sweater next time. Great editing and video, the right length for this one-of-a-kind hike. You are such an awesome ambassador of your city and State! (Great shirt by the way ;D) and a great videographer!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so very much Alex! Yes this hike packed in a lot of everything so my video had to definitely be a bit longer! Thank you so much for all your kind words Alex! I am so happy to see both our channels growing right now! It just such a wonderful feeling 😌 ☺. Thanks for everything Alex!

[@bucks_in_6]

Finished this yesterday, it was an outstanding hike! Weather was perfect, trails were easy to follow, hikers were all extremely friendly and the views....wow. Haven't completed a hike of this length before and glad I did!!! Thanks for the video again!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah, this is a really awesome hike that is a good challenge with some amazing views! I made this video 4 years ago, actually, and I haven't done it since. I'm hoping to do it sometime next month if I can squeeze in the time! I'm glad this video was helpful for you, and congratulations on conquering another peak!

[@AmericasParks]

Another great hike, Eric! You did gain some significant elevation on that one. Listen to that wind whipping up there!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Hey Randy. Yeah this hike was pretty hard but extremely rewarding! The wind was a bit crazy definitely! Btw I went back to Great Basin and was able to hike to the top of Wheeler Peak last Wednesday 😁👍. Thanks for watching brother.

[@AmericasParks]

@@adventuringoutdoorswitheric Neat! Look forward to the video! Might be a while before I get my uploaded.

[@libmananchannel]

You are such a wonderful videographer and outdoor enthusiast!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate. Yes I love the outdoors and sharing my adventures with everyone. I appreciate it 🙂.

[@bryanseverino9198]

Hike looks amazing! I'm stuck in New York, so can't experience it myself. Thanks for sharing.............

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much, my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I hope you're able to come out here and do this hike in the future because it's pretty awesome!

[@luvdriven540i]

Nice hike, Eric! Excellent footage! I hiked Griffith from the South Loop Trail a few days ago, but I continued to Harris Mountain, then down a ridge into Kyle Canyon and back to Cathedral Rock parking lot. Tough hike, but awesome! Keep pumpin out the vids! 👍👊😎

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much! Yeah that sounds like one hell of an extension to this hike you did. I'm glad the weather is still OK enough to do that. Awesome thank you so much!

[@justletmetravel]

Some great views also looks like a great day to get out thanks for sharing

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thanks for checking out my video. I appreciate you watching.

[@BLOTOUTDOORSSHOW]

Another great video Eric 👍

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed this adventure! I appreciate it!

[@GillanTravels]

Awesome hike! Absolutely incredible views! Wow!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much my friend! So glad you enjoyed this adventure. Appreciate you checking this out!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Loved it Eric and a great hike, with a real canny pull up to the summit mind. Great to see the trail open again but like you say, sad to see the devastation the fire caused. Great views from Griffith but again so so to see some much woodland lost. You did a good job there buddy, cheers Alan

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much Alan! Yeah this was really one hell of an uphill climb to reach the summit of Griffith Peak. I see you climb mountains all the time so you understand the feeling of accomplishment after you finish the entire hike. The fire devastation is sad to see but thankfully the forest is slowly rebuilding itself. Alan I really like you stopping by my friend.

[@AngelandAirah]

wow hiking nice upload .... thanks for sahring

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you

[@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING]

Awesome trail. Great video. Amazing scenery. I like how you explain the trail and area. Well done. Crow✌️

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yes it was an awesome trail! Thankfully this is a local hiking area for me so I totally know about it and I was able to share that information 😀. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch this and comment! Thanks brother.

[@harshglare5017]

Like the slo mo... always a cool effect!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you very much. I like using slow motion because it makes the footage look smoother. Appreciate you watching.

[@Mia-N-Dan]

Eric we must catch up so you tell mentor a fellow hiker on video editing! Dude epic gain, that hurts! I love your videos. Thanks for sharing

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much Mia! Yes this hike wasn't a piece of cake but so damn amazing! I am so glad you love my videos and I really appreciate your continued support of my channel 😁👍

[@gregory0059ward]

Yesterday was the first time I did that hike, never did any hike like that before. I made it to the top, it was rough, but enjoyable!!!!! Great Hike!!!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah it is a really tough hike but very rewarding as well. Congratulations! I'm not sure if you're planning on doing Mt Charleston Peak but this hike prepares you for it. Glad you did it and enjoyed it.

[@hazelatina]

Éric, this is spectacular! It's incredible that after so many years, the forest still shows the devastation, but at the same time, the beautiful new growth. Thanks for sharing another beautiful hike.

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thanks you some much for your continued support of my channel! It's because of wonderful viewers/ friends like you I keep making videos 😁👍.

[@HimalayaSolukhumbuNepal]

hi there I'm here, your new friend. Nice to watch your video. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up and stay safe,

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video! I appreciate you checking this out.

[@adventureswithLK]

First off.........BIG 1K!!!!!!! Congrates Eric, you are definitely killing it. This hike had some pretty amazing views. I know you said there were others on the trail, but they way you shot it along with the music made it feel like you were 1000 miles away from the nearest person. Absolutely loved it buddy.👍👍👍

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so much Lance! I am glad to cross this milestone finally! I want to truly thank you for all your help and support since my early beginnings of the channel. One of the best things about KZbin is making friends with great people like yourself! I am so glad that I shot this in a way where it looked like it was just only me and the beautiful scenery around me. This was such an amazing hike and I had to take a ton of footage to make sure I had lots of good shots in there. I am so happy you enjoyed this brother and again thank you for always having my back.

[@theryanstravel1699]

Wow, the fire damage is still visible. Really excellent editing, music choices and narrations throughout. Good advice about bringing a light jacket. It's always hard to imagine the temperature change when it's so hot at the base! What epic views! New friends here :)

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah so crazy to hike through all that fire damage! The burned trees did have there own beautiy in a way! So glad you enjoyed video editing and music 🎶. I really appreciate you subscribed to my channel and I gave you back some support as well 😀👍

[@DestinationEarth]

The effects of a fire can indeed be bad. That said, it does allow for some new growth to occur which can be VERY important. So despite the fact that it looks bad, it can in fact help the area. There will be some new growth happening with some plants that could never survive in a well established forest area. It all takes time and is all a bug circle. Wow, look at those views! One of my favorite videos from you.

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yes it the long term it's going to be a good thing. I still think it looks kinda cool in a strange way. I am so happy you enjoyed this video and thought it was one of my best! It was over 9 minutes long and it took most of a day to edit. Thanks a million Josh!

[@JamesGames175]

Amazing video

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thanks you so much for watching and and your continued support 😀. So glad you enjoyed this adventure.

[@chrisqqchris5401]

Great Hike Eric ... I want to try this ... maybe camp overnight if possible ... I am curious if camping is allowed and what the necessities you would recommend ... Anyway ... Loved it

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

So, to be honest with you, I'm more of a day hiker than a camper, so I wouldn't exactly know what you would need to camp out on Mt Charleston. But I do know that there is a campsite, probably a mile below the summit of Griffith Peak. If you do end up camping out, you might as well hike to the top of Mt Charleston as well. Thank you so much for watching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ3TammXeb9-g6s

[@anthonypayne1]

That was an incredible hike up Eric, and good advice to turn back if you are feeling unwell at altitude. It was sad to see trees ravaged by the fire you mentioned, but Mother Nature has a way of repairing herself. I wish I could subscribe to you again and become your 1000th subscriber Lol! Many congrats👍👍👍

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah this hike was incredible and the fire damage was very immense! But the burnt trees have there own strange beauty also. Nature really does have a way of repairing itself. I am extremely happy to finally pass 1000 subscribers! It was a long road but glad to finally accomplish it! Thanks for your support over the past few years and I am so glad we met on here.

[@roytocha7009]

Great job

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you very much!

[@reneejones7807]

Watching this on Halloween. If it’s that windy and cold in August, best to put this one off till next summer, lol.

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yes I am sure it's a bit chilly up there right now! I do appreciate you checking out this video and happy Halloween!!

[@JapanHiroshima]

BEAUTIFUL.............LOVELY

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you so very much!!

[@bucks_in_6]

Very interested in this when I am in Vegas in late August. I did Turtle Peak last year, and this is on my list. How long did it take in total?

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

This one took me about 8 hours to do. I'm not a fast hiker or a super slow one either. Thanks for watching.

[@craigbetts1586]

from your filming it did look like a steep climb to the top and good tip on altitude sickness but the view was amazing once got there, I see your one sub short of 1000

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Well over 1000 now! I am extremely happy to pass that milestone finally.This hike went very high and the scenery was constantly changing. Altitude sickness is the worst! Thank you so much for watching my friend!

[@craigbetts1586]

@@adventuringoutdoorswitheric just checked in and yes over the 1K mark congrats Eric

[@dezmangalway6396]

Did Charleston peak twice so far. Once alone then again with a friend. Griffith peak and mummy mountain are on my bucket list. About how many hours up and down is this hike if you don't mind me asking?

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

It took me around 8 hours to complete. If you did Charleston already, you will definitely be ok with this one! Thanks for watching!

[@anzhelikavardi7204]

Nice views! Thanh’s for the Infor! Fires are not sad) it’s a part of nature! New trees will grow)

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah, this hike has totally spectacular views, for sure! It's definitely a challenge, but it's totally worth it, obviously. Yes, fire is a part of nature, and new trees will definitely grow again. Thanks for checking out this video 😀

[@originalclassics]

Is it livable up there in Mt. Charleston? I saw there's some gorgeous cabins there, just not sure if people are living there full time. Thanks

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah some people actually live there full-time. A former coworker of mine had a house up there and lived there for a while till he got divorced and had to get rid of the place unfortunately. Thanks for checking out this video.

[@originalclassics]

@@adventuringoutdoorswitheric thanks. My mother is retiring and thinking of relocating to Nevada. Seems like a good option only 30-40 minutes from civilization it seems. Do you know if he have any issues with errands getting groceries, receiving mail, etc…?

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Getting groceries he had to get outside of the Mount Charleston area. I would say the closest grocery store from the Mt Charleston would be about 30 minute drive. If you work in Las Vegas it's good to probably stop in get groceries on the way back home. I'm not sure about the mail but I think that probably wouldn't be an issue.

[@mjolner3479]

Hey man, great video whats the song used?

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Thank you very much brother. The song is called The Long Walk by Jamie Norwood. www.epidemicsound.com/artists/jamie-norwood/ Thank you so much for watching.

[@craigdavidson2977]

How many hours did it take you to get to the top? If you have already mentioned the time it took to climb to the peak I can't find it. Thanks. Great video!

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

I believe it took me about 4 hours to get to the top. Like 3 to come back down. It's a pretty hard climb but definitely amazing. Thanks glad you enjoyed it.

[@TheNinkida14]

How long did it take you?

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

This took me around 8 hours to do. But I was also filming and vlogging. If you have any other questions let me know. Thanks for watching.
