Day 1- Great Divide Trail Section E- Owen Pass and Michele Lakes!

[@hoboesque_]

Tough day made good . Easily in the top 10 KZbin channels for trail hiking in my opinion . The stills and video quality . The sheer joy and enthusiasm . Watching this tonight made me realise how much I have missed this channel .

Thank goodness for the goat. I was thinking about your pct trip the other day and thought you hadn’t come up on my feed. Went straight to source. Love the work. From Scotland:-)

[@matthewsponseller]

Great to start my day with a new Hurl Goat Hiker video! Nice to see the beautiful area, great photography/video, the color is so vivid and clear. Your smile, delight, and enthusiasm are perhaps the best part of this video. Hike on!

[@HM-gk3rq]

Worth the wait. So good. Looks like you got awesome weather!!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

The first day yes but we did also get some gloomy days.

[@HM-gk3rq]

HurlgoatHiker ok. I was thinking that based on Instagram pictures too. @hikingamerica filmed their hike of GDT and it seemed mostly cold and rainy!

[@JC-vb2kd]

Yahoooo!!! Glad your back but will watch this episode later. Thanks!!

[@janetgordon9010]

Welcome back. Break out the bagels and avocados

[@willardwooten9582]

Haven't watch any hiking vids in the last 6 month's but could not resist THE GOAT. Yes even this American knows how beautiful Western Canada is , aren't you happy you move across Canada now that it has been almost a year. How's work going for you in C. R. On Van Is.

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Yes I am super happy I moved out West, Work is going well, staying really busy with Work, School and small weekend Adventures, this trip was the highlight of the year for sure but did manage to summit many peaks here on Vancouver Island this past Summer with my wonderful girlfriend.

[@willardwooten9582]

@@HurlgoatHiker You do mean M . P . and when ' s the wedding

[@HurlgoatHiker]

@Willard Wooten No M.P and I went our separate ways, I have a new girlfriend and we've been together for a year already, we've gone on many amazing short trips together.

[@willardwooten9582]

@@HurlgoatHiker I thought the distance and border would come into play but it was a wonderful journey to watch as I am sure the rest will be just as good if not better with your new girlfriend.

[@dr.peterbuhne8669]

Finally the goat is back and gives us awesome footage of a high grade adventure. For me he is still The Godfather of KZbin Outdoor Vlogs.

[@zachdurrett1357]

I would give you tons of shit for being gone so long but I’m to happy to have watched the start of another adventure! Especially with this turd sandwich of a year!! Sorry it didn’t work out with my lady Poppins. Glad you’re happy & back on the trail! Thanks brother.

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Zach, glad to be releasing this series

[@briangrigutsbmgoutdoors7866]

Goat!!!!! So excited!!!!!!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

🤙

[@althrox]

Welcome back

[@jasonjackson7293]

The Goat is back!!!!! Great to see a new video. I have been in withdraw since I FINALY finished the PCT videos about 6 weeks ago. But you left us hanging... What did you have for dinner????

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Haha for supper we had a Curry Dish.

[@sallycooper7677]

Yay! So great to see another series from you! I feel like this is going to be more beautiful than the PCT ;) What was up with the creepy audio at Owen's Pass? That was weird.....

[@HurlgoatHiker]

The cameras Audio is a bit odd on this trip, still getting to know the GoPro that I was using.

[@sallycooper7677]

@@HurlgoatHiker it sounded like something was growling at you when you first started talking in that segment. Freaky! The video quality is definitely much sharper

[@lindaselover2536]

Great to see you back on the trail! I still refer people to your composite JMT videos to learn about that trail. What is your new tent? A Big Angnes?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Yes it is the Big Agnus Copper Spur HV UL2

[@michaelp1109]

So good to see you back on the trail again. Really enjoy seeing the adventures. Does your girlfriend understand your issues with backtracking to get the camera shots? Haha. Safe hiking.

[@HurlgoatHiker]

I think understands now after the videos are done haha

[@skipandcherieadventures116]

What is your raincoat and did it work well? Is it longer than most?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

My raincoat I was using is the Marmot Precip, it performs well in light rain but in all day rain it didn't do so well, I don't think there is a light hiking raincoat that keeps you dry after many hours of sideways rain but this the best light raincoat I've ever had and it was a fair price.

[@robertborowski9662]

👌👌👌

[@nathandolenc554]

WoW! What video camera are you using?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

My GoPro Hero7, all the stills are from my Sony A6000

[@ES-ge7bb]

Gorgeous scenery. Would be nice having links to maps of this trail. I don't see the Owen Campground or Pass on Google Maps, but do see Upper Michelle Lake. Also, new girlfriend?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Yup, we've been together for a year now, we've done lots of fun trips together.

[@ThatsAPaddlin88]

What do you film with? Is this mostly GoPro? Thanks

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Yes it mostly with my GoPro, I like the video quality but not a big fan of the Audio.

[@Victorted]

60 pounds. Outstanding. Thanks for mentioning that in an era when every other backpacking KZbinr seems to be shooting for sub-10 pound packs. Good on them all, but not my style, either. Beer and Oreos are weighty, you know?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Ted, I will never be UL, Its just not my style at all and yes I definitely do know what you mean, Cheers.

[@azcolby40]

Yes, the Goat has returned, great to see you back on trail and KZbin, are you going to introduce us to your young lady ?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

She will be in the videos more in the future.

[@victoriamarshall2559]

Hey how have you been

[@HurlgoatHiker]

I've been great, super busy.

[@GalenSteele]

Don’t know why but lost sound in about 75% of it

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Hmmm, thats to bad, not sure why that would be. It is rendered in 4k, not sure if choosing a lower video quality would help.
