Tahoe Rim Trail // Water Pumps and Thunderstorms - Part 11

[@ZitherBeast]

The Sand Harbor portion is just freaking awesome.....

[@denimlabels7315]

Wow...I love where things are going! Looks like sacred grounds you walk upon. Great job. I felt like I was there. Great Sunset!

[@JenniferMabus]

It was so stunning. The whole day!

[@kellyjohnson3617]

That was a gorgeous view of sand harbor which is gorgeous from lake level. From up that high you can really enjoy th3 colors of the water. Lake Tahoe is like no other lake. Thanks for posting

[@JenniferMabus]

It truly is stunning!!

[@Jimbo-pm1dp]

"I dont know the answer....I think its just there"..yud think she was talkin about a UFO or something majestic....lol...what a revelation...a wealth of knowledge Dyana...lol...love to watch you both....great vid Jen...stay safe and happy !!

[@johnalden5821]

This was one of the most amusing videos you've ever done! Both of you were either going bat-shirt crazy by this point or really just hamming it up for the camera. Maybe both. But that scenery from the overlook -- that was no joke. That must've been at least a 3,000 foot straight drop. Stunning.

[@JenniferMabus]

It was a fun video to edit!!

[@gaylewalker4239]

The water pump cracked me up. Keep trekking

[@JenniferMabus]

😂😂

[@owenfrederick1453]

I have been anxiously awaiting part 2!!!!

[@JenniferMabus]

Sureeeeee

[@franrd4254]

With the issue of water I began to think about the alpacas, but then you came to the viewpoint of the lake and I remembered that magnificent place and the photo that I still have as wallpaper

[@JenniferMabus]

😀

[@billcummins9579]

Beatiful video... the overlook was awesome !!

[@JenniferMabus]

Thank you! It was stunning!

[@peaksandpaws]

Great video! As usual, I am constantly cracking up with you two. You guys are hilarious!! And also... holy crap! That view from that Sand Harbor Overlook?!??? Wow! That was just insanely beautiful!

[@JenniferMabus]

It was spectacular!!

[@Jimbo-pm1dp]

Lol....When I "feel the need" I usually find a deadfall with a perfect fork at the perfect height....I always thought thats what they meant when they say "the trail provides"....(smile)....fun video Jen....you two are having so much fun....TMI....LOL !!

[@JenniferMabus]

Hahaha too funny.

[@docholliday5439]

I wasn't expecting to watch a work-out video! 😃💞😘

[@cosmokenney]

That was one of your best edits.

[@JenniferMabus]

Thank you! I had a lot of fun with it!

[@rkatrails]

Yay, the saga continues! I loved the summer rain. Thanks for the valve tip, I don't think I'd figure it out on my own. That was another very pretty stretch.

[@JenniferMabus]

It was gorgeous!

[@hikerJohn]

That was sooo funny. Speaking of strange noises in the night, once I heard what sounded like a plastic bucket being kicked around on and off all night long. Once your mind associates a noise with something you've heard before it just wont let it go . . . I looked all around in the morning but could not figure out what it was hahaha

[@JenniferMabus]

I got a good chuckle out of it lol

[@GetOutadventure]

Glad you took that spur to the Lake Awesome view!! Awesome sunset at the end!! Fantastic trail!

[@JenniferMabus]

Very great trail!!

[@wearejungians]

Just got my first ever tent and am wanting to start hiking. Never did it growing up but it seems like a lot of fun. You and your friend are hilarious haha

[@JenniferMabus]

Thank you! And it’s a lot of fun! There can be some low points but the highs are fantastic!

[@scottsteel2334]

That was the most spectacular 0.6 mile trail spur I have ever seen. The view looked very New Zealand like. I was waiting for Owen to make a surprise appearance with a para-glider and ask you; "are you ready to go."

[@JenniferMabus]

Omg I WISH

[@robertclark8044]

Thanks for showing me how to use the pump. It will make it easier when I get there next year!

[@JenniferMabus]

I am glad I saved you from what we went through! Hahaha

[@brianhansen3730]

So funny 🤗 and what a beautiful stretch. Even the thunderstorms is inviting somehow. Yet another trail to add to the list 🙂

[@JenniferMabus]

I absolutely loved that storm!

[@Mtnsunshine]

Yay! Another episode. 😁. They just keep getting better and better. 😆

[@JenniferMabus]

It was a fun day!!

[@RapidGW]

Wow that view at Sand Harbor is amazing 🔥 Water pump - classic slapstick there (I would have done the same thing).... 👍🏼

[@johnnymayo8534]

Trust ur rash did not get any worse. Luv ur videos!! This is exactly what America needs today!!

[@jimbelmont5608]

You both are hilarious and so fun to follow. Thanks for introducing me to Dyana. I started following her now. Not sure which you of you is the crazy one. Keep up your videos.

[@JenniferMabus]

She is great!!

[@allencrider]

I loved the slo-mo eating of the tortilla wrap.

[@JenniferMabus]

Very necessary lol

[@johnalden5821]

Yes. That is called "workin' it."

[@johneason6540]

You and Diana are so fun together. Is she a close friend from Reno. Beautiful hike and trail. The cut over to Sand harbor was so worth it. I use to boat there all the time. Thanks for the video. Also is Owen home now.

[@JenniferMabus]

She is from LA! We met through the wonderful hiking community. :)

[@ben1NZL]

That pump action was so funny Jen 😂 You know, you could always do a Bear Grylls if you run out of water lol

[@JenniferMabus]

No thank you!! Hahah

[@chriscarlsen2100]

😂😂 this one was hilarious!! Looks like you had incredible time with your friend. 😊

[@JenniferMabus]

It's my favorite video of the series yet!!

[@davidmcbee4529]

One person pumps while another drinks from the scuttlebutt. The attachment on the pump is a drinking fountain.

[@LenserX]

So many good things. Awesome sunset; thanks for sharing. More Dyana musical numbers please. And for Pete's sake, why would you cut the disrobing? LOL But seriously folks, great job on the burrito commercial. Between D's energetic camera work and the tight editing I was ready to order one.

[@johnmoquist4303]

great cutaway

[@JenniferMabus]

Thanks!

[@sugarstick6990]

Awesome videos Starburst 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@JenniferMabus]

Thank you!!!

[@davidcolinstillman5585]

BREATHTAKING BEAUTY COLORS VIEWS SCENERY VIDEO WEATHER FOOTAGE ! THE TRAILS LOOK VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF ! SEEMS TO BE MARKED GOOD TOO . THANK YOU ! BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BLESS YOU BOTH ALWAYS ON YOUR JOURNEYS ! GORGEOUS 🌇 🌅 🌆 🌄 TOO ! ENJOYED !

[@allenbond6024]

Fun editing on this one! And the people that disliked this video couldn't figure out the water pump.

[@JenniferMabus]

Hahaha 😆 you’re right

[@davidsavage5930]

Jen, What happened to the engineer problem solving skills on the hand pump?!!🤣

[@JenniferMabus]

I got there eventually! But I was dehydrated and tired so it took a little longer. 🤣

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

..I thought she did great figuring it out ,, I have seen many people walk away without success on these types of pumps...have seen some pumps similar operation but had a foot pump ,, still had the bypass valve ,, but leaves both hands free ,, once pressure is there,,keep pumping,, valve will stay open...drop and close when stop pumping........👍 ** Team Starburst **

[@davidsavage5930]

That must have been a really deep well. The ones I've done stay running for a while after you get them going. Nice they had one provided. I wonder what a person would do if they were backpacking solo.

[@tynmattsmom2575]

I freakin love your videos! I seriously have no idea how you get so dirty but it makes me laugh every time you show your feet and legs!

[@JenniferMabus]

I’m a hot mess out there!

[@j.newton]

A little unnerving that it took an engineer so long to figure out how that pump worked! 😂😂😂

[@JenniferMabus]

A tired, hungry, thirsty* engineer hahahaha

[@j.newton]

The Whimsical Woman Also, just so you know, I love your videos & your whole adventure has been an inspiration. I’m a 43 year old man with a lot of physical aches and pains from several sports injuries growing up. But, in part because of you, I will be tackling the PCT in 2023! That’s assuming the global pandemic is contained and hasn’t killed us all. Once I begin documenting my journey maybe you’ll get a chance to watch my videos, as well. Be well, stay safe out there... and THANK YOU!

[@shgnamaste7730]

1:06 I'm thirsty now. 😆

[@PJ818]

My first #PrayForConstipation incident in the Sierras led me to always have some Imodium AD or the grocery store generic stocked in my backpacking first aid kit. Not much worse than the runs in the backcountry.

[@JenniferMabus]

I usually carry Imodium as well! Because yikes

[@bryanc281]

I'm sure you've covered this in the past, but that 2nd toe! That's a long one...

[@JenniferMabus]

It sure is!!

[@allencrider]

@@JenniferMabus I've got that too and it makes me be particular of the shoes I can wear for backpacking.

[@SinMore]

Ha ha ah HA! That rockin "burrito"? with the dirty hands..hey, just some probiotics.... maybe that slapping sound really was Bill Shatner out in the woods somewhere?

[@JenniferMabus]

Hahah one could only hope!!

[@davidstark3312]

I woke up one morning during this summer's hike to a big black bear breathing on my face! Needless to say could not get back to sleep. Also I thought pooping yourself is a through hiker right of passage, no?

[@JenniferMabus]

That is terrifying!! And it is a right of passage, but one I don’t need to pass through 😂

[@flowerchildvee]

lmfaoooo at pray for constipation 😂

[@JenniferMabus]

I need it lol

[@claramullen]

Starburst you must have an iron gut I can't believe that you never get sick from eating with those filthy hands ❤

[@JenniferMabus]

That’s probably why I don’t get sick! Lol my stomach has seen it all!

[@JenniferMabus]

That’s probably why I don’t get sick! Lol my stomach has seen it all!

[@frankzappa2451]

The ending was funny 😂,😳😄🤪🍻✌️

[@TheHungryHiker]

#prayforconstipation I know the feeling. Man do I know the feeling!

[@JenniferMabus]

Hahahahaha oh I bet you do!!

[@hillbillyboy4648]

Hilarious 😆

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

Maybe that wasn't a bear at all ,, maybe Dyana found a boyfriend off trail and they were in the gym with a camel ...lol..( check with Dixie's Spain trip for explanation of sounds in the night ) ....lol.. or Yogi and Boo-Boo's late night soccer with your bear barrel.....

[@kennogawa6638]

I have seen a woman use your thumbnail picture as her own. At first I thought it was you but but the name was different.

[@JenniferMabus]

Do you know who it was?

[@kennogawa6638]

@@JenniferMabus It was a woman but when I realized it was not you I clicked away because it was on a news KZbin channel on Trump losing the election. The name was not Jennifer and it caught my eye because of the bright orange. I will write down her name if I spot it again.

[@kennogawa6638]

@@JenniferMabus Your best bet is to change your thumbnail from the orange jacket to something else.

[@jamesflou]

I still enjoy watching your videos even though you married that other guy? You are the only one who will show your dirty feet and talk about peeing and it's just hilarious. Stay safe Jen!

[@JenniferMabus]

Hahah thank you!

[@Chris_Martin707]

You would certainly know better than I, but I understand pooping your pants on a thru-hike isn't uncommon. No?

[@JenniferMabus]

It does happen to people, yes.
