I Had a Need to Be on the Mountain Today

[@jackhenry5974]

Thankyou so mich for you beautiful videos. Reminds me of the many miles I rode in the mountains in the Pacific Northwest when I was a girl.Cant get on a horse, now but watching your videos puts me back in the saddle again. It feels like Im there. Thankyou So Much!

[@cowdogflicks]

it is my pleasure todo so hope you enjoy the channel

[@buckaroo3589]

I can't believe more people haven't discovered this channel. The cinematography is excellent, by the way.

[@cowdogflicks]

Thanks for watching. Safe trails

[@wildlyunrulyadventures3942]

My mountain (Rainier) calls to me all the time. Sometimes so strongly that I have to fight the urge to blow off responsibilities. But I'll tell you what, there is no better feeling in the mountains than on horseback. I truly miss that to my core. RIP to my Cowboy. Best horse I ever had the pleasure of riding. Beautiful Red Roan btw. Thanks for taking us along.

[@billmerkle2677]

The Thorofare is so cool too.

[@jenslingspaint3523]

I did that trail with my Mom in September of 2021 and it was great. Thanks for the good cinematography and the good memories. It's neat to see how different the trail is in winter versus early fall.

[@cowdogflicks]

The trail needs work a lot thanks for watching

[@mervjb809]

You are so fortunate to be able to do that!! That was great!

[@bluemntceltic2]

I really appreciate the incredibly clear videography, your editing and content. Makes me feel as if I'm riding along with you. One suggestion or request. Would it be too much to ask for you to put the dates on these videos. I grew up in Colorado, big city kid, but I studied Botany at CSU and I try to estimate the month (early or late) from the plants but I sure would appreciate a set of dates to go along with the viewing. Back in 2003 I took a 10 day pack in and stay there on the Thorofare, about a mile from Bridger Lake. We left on the trailhead along the shore of Yellowstone Lake on July 4. Man, do your videos of your travels along the Thorofare, Bridger Lake and up to the headwaters of the Yellowstone, bring back good memories. We didn't go to Two Ocean's Pass but we did ride to the top of the Trident and go over to visit the cabin at Hawk's Rest and the one there on the edge of YNP. Oh, thanks for introducing me to Boulder Basin Outfitters, think I'll contact them and make a return trip up there. Keep up the great work. Been to the Flattops (backpacking back in the early 70's and over by Blanco Peak as well). You sure do bring back the memories. Happy New Year (2025)! Blessings, Tim

[@ianferrier235]

I'm not a horse person but I find your videos very relaxing. Thanks for sharing

[@cowdogflicks]

Glad you like them! watch a jounry to the headwaters of the Yellowstone River you will enjoy it

[@ianferrier235]

@Wilderness Riders yes we actually did, it was very enjoyable. Do you folks do horse back trip for the public?

[@allenrogers5459]

Great video. I feel the same need sometimes. Love all the aspen trees. I do enjoy riding in the aspen trees

[@thunderrooster65]

Gods country. I've dreamed of this. Thank you

[@cowdogflicks]

[@bavariantrailriders1883]

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I feel that need often ..beautiful country…great video ..keep it up !

[@cowdogflicks]

I guess we think a lot alike. I hope things smooth out for you. Maybe our paths will cross soon. Also I like how you put that 360 camera on top of that stock trailer and look down on mule saddling that was good views. safe travels

[@BrettVaughnB100]

@@cowdogflicks thank you ..as I’m sure you know we are always looking to show a different perspective of what we do …I hope our paths do cross some day …I need to get up north before I’m too old lol

[@roberthambly9926]

It's been a while, hope you're ok. I often go back and watch the older one's. Glad your still hoofing it. Love the horses alway's wanted a red roan. Stay safe and healthy.

[@cowdogflicks]

Thanks for watching. I do enjoy riding in the mountains. Watch my last video from last summer I think you would enjoy it. Title. Finding a back door into Yellowstone

[@roberthambly9926]

@@cowdogflicks I just watched that one and watched it on the TV I’m glad I did just beautiful scenery beautiful thanks for the video take care stay healthy

[@billmerkle2677]

Hey this is cool to watch. My last trip was in the Thorofare back in 2017. I wish I could ride with you but I live too far away. But someday I'll be back out there. I miss the mountains real bad.

[@cowdogflicks]

keep remembering it helps

[@SanJuanMountainBob]

As usual…great video. It must have been a wet summer over on that side of the hill, with all that grass. Thanks for sharing your ride…it’s always enjoyable to follow along.

[@cowdogflicks]

Good to hear from you. I need to go to your side of the mountain and ride this year. Maybe we should talk. Email [e-mail]. Safe journeys

[@irbadltald2532]

Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. It was very relaxing just watching it

[@cowdogflicks]

I do enjoy riding in the aspens it is relaxing

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Love your videos!

[@cowdogflicks]

I enjoy your videos also. Have learned from your video techniques and angles. Your recent winter camping videos looks like a lot of fun. I don’t think my horse would like it though. Stay warm summer is coming Safe trails

[@cowdogflicks]

Oh. I like the pants you put on at winter camp. I wish I had those years ago when I did a lot more winter camping

[@artemis4661]

Found. Watched. Subscribed.

[@cowdogflicks]

Thanks for watching and subscribe and safe journeys

[@chalkrockranch]

Love the video. Thanks for sharing. I've been itching to be back in the mountains on horseback myself. I'm fortunate to have 3 boys that enjoy the mountains as well. If you ever make it to SE Wyoming to ride and want some riding partners, let me know!

[@cowdogflicks]

My son lives in Greeley and I often drive through Cheyenne on my way to Pinedale from there. I used to do some ranching in Arlington and think about riding in the snowy mountains again. My email is [e-mail]. Let’s talk when the weather finally breaks this spring

[@thomasrikli2102]

Hi papa and carol.

[@ronnie32567]

Hey, I really liked your video. What trailhead did you start from? I’m in Florida but visit a friend in Durango often, it’s too far to haul my horse but would love to hike that trail, beautiful scenery

[@cowdogflicks]

This trail is near Westcliffe Colorado quite a ways from Durango there are some great trails in southwestern Colorado to explore and that’s so far away

[@ronnie32567]

@@cowdogflicks thanks, I’ve been in that country many times, l lived in northern New Mexico for a few years and explored that area of the Sangre de Cristo mnts, for some reason I thought that you were in the southern San Juan’s that it is near Durango

[@AndyTheCornbread]

Roger that was great! It's still too icy and snow packed to ride here. When you are on the horse is your GoPro 9 in a chest rig or on your hat or how is it set up? On your saddle bags it looks like you have a saddle blanket that goes under them that is longer than your pad. How do you have that setup so it doesn't slip around?

[@cowdogflicks]

I keep my GoPro in my Palmer bags on the settlement. I use a small selfie stick by hand to take photos. About the saddle pad I use a wool blanket underneath my big pad so I don’t muddy up my good pads The horse sweats mud from all the dust here. come summer after the horse slicks off I need to remove that small pad. Safe journeys

und nun stellt euch mal vor, ihr müsstet dort überwintern,,,hütte bauen, vorräte sammeln, holz hacken, jagen gehen...

[@jamesday3443]

Nobody is packing guns. No bears in those mountains/

[@cowdogflicks]

I’ve only seen a black bear or two in these mountains and they usually run fast away from you. There are places where I do carry a gun or take my dog with me

[@stephanedick2617]

I like watching your videos and you go riding made a hole bunch of different people but I might be nosy , but I nodes your wife is never or not very often on your video. My question is, is she not in to riding horses or is she camera shy, and that is okay, but I was wondering why she is never part of your trips or she is the important person in the back ground who never get the credit but is the ressen you can do all that ?
