First, the friendship chemistry here is marvelous. Second, I kind of love the message here to explore areas that see less traffic since some areas (like the enchantments) are actually so overpopulated I can’t think of the impact on the ecosystem. I live in Oregon and this one is within reach so I love it!

I love Miranda’s candidness. It’s so important that people who don’t struggle with health issues that impact their daily activities see what those of us who do have to deal with. As someone living with MS, many of the symptoms are very similar, so I am in awe that she is able to tackle these incredibly difficult hikes with such a positive attitude. Also, that hike looks amazing!!!!

The talk about "standard" backpacking gear versus lightweight is really interesting, it made me think about a phenomenon I've noticed in a number of hobbies where especially if you're researching it on the internet you can get a skewed idea of how "everybody does it" because the people who are the most extremely invested and hardcore about that thing are often also the people who most likely to be heavily involved in online discussion spaces answering questions and giving advice (asked for or not), and so it's easy to get this wrong idea that everyone does a thing a certain way when there's actually a whole range of ways people are out there in the actual world doing it. If you only knew about backpacking from reading forums and reddit threads and what not you'd think every backpacker is an ultralight long distance through-hiker...

Yes! I've found myself really enjoying Eric and Miranda's content in particular because they acknowledge the different factions and explore both ultralight and "standard" backpacking as equally valid ways to experience the outdoors, rather than treating ye olde heavy backpackers as inferior, inexperienced, or outdated. I also think there's a safety angle. One of the biggest safety assets is your skill outdoors, and it's misleading for an experienced backpacker to say "you don't need that" when a less experienced person might not have the skill to safely enjoy their trip without it.

What an awesome adventure and video. Thank you, Eric, Miranda and Rainer for sharing our seldom explored backyard (I live in Leavenworth, actually Plain). This looks like a challenging trek but one I would like to do before I get too old to do it. You guys ROCK, for sure for battling the bugs, elevation gains and personal limitations! 🥰 I forgot to add that chirping you heard coming down Mary's Pass was probably a Pika Rabbit (Rock Hyrax). They are all over the Cascades and live amongst the rock morraines.

As an East Coast backpacker, how do you sleep without a rainfly and avoid everything getting damp from dew overnight? Is it just that much drier (in Washington!?). 3. What is your cook pot/mug combo? Don’t the handles get hot? Thanks to you, Miranda, and Rainer for a fun and honest video!

1. The Farm to Summit Mac n Cheese was great! I made it with too much water though so I need a chance at redemption. 2. There was no dew. It was extremely dry out there so no need for a rain fly. 3. Cook pot is the Toaks 750ml pot and mug is the UCO collapsible camp cup (links in the description). Yes the handle on the TOAKS pot get very hot. Gotta be careful!

I think your assessment at the end was fair. You gave everything a fair shot on a longer, more difficult trip, with gear you enjoy and would enjoy maybe on something less of a duration or elevation and while you may have had a more enjoyable time with some more updated versions of the equipment, you got to test the equipment on a more difficult outing. And now you know. You guys can go and do the trip again, with a lighter pack and really see the difference and have that much more of an enjoyable time.

I'm glad you got to enjoy a great hike in our state, I'm further south 45 minutes from the gate of Mount Rainier. I always thought the mountains were really cool further north, they seem to be a lot more rugged than they are the further south you go in the Cascades.

And this is also why I also build redundancy into my navigation system!!! For those moments where you're not sure where the trail could have gone off to. I hope you guys travel together again, you are all inspiring to watch! We can do hard things! The payoff is worth it!!! A 50# pack sounds brutal for a 5 day strenuous trip! It seems like everyone had their own challenges and came out unscathed and hopefully happy on the other side!

I have to confess that I put off watching this because it was almost 90 minutes long, which is like forever in KZbin years (and which is pretty silly of me since I sit in the same chair looking at the same monitor watching streamed movies All. The. Time.) I'm sorry I waited because this was amazing. Your videography is stunning and your artistry in the production of these videos is a truly amazing. It was an incredibly rewarding hour and a half... ...and now I need to be on the lookout for Miranda's video as a "compare and contrast" exercise (kinda like the slot canyon trip) since I'm betting Rainer didn't pack that camera gear for conditioning purposes...

These two compliment each other well and the videos don’t end up being repetitive. Also, in Eric’s video we get to see Rainer and that’s always a treat.

With strong determination and trekking poles, we were able to make it down back to the trailhead just a little past midnight. We had amazing friends that helped us pack our gear and helped carry them back to the car. We absolutely loved the beauty of the Washington Alpine lakes and we would come back again!

I use the Mystery Ranch Metcalf and its usually 60-70 lbs of gear and usually go 6-8 miles out to set up the camp. My ruck never sounded like yours. THAT would have driven me NUTS!!

I'm visiting a friend in Eastern Washington in a few days and during our trip, we're staying in the East/heading into Idaho, but man after seeing some of these views, I'm starting to question my decision to stay in the East. That's some beautiful scenery!

A great job & vid Eric! Did a similar one, with similar weight (9 days food, instead of camera kit) and a disappearing trail. Same result,too: never again 50 lbs, and now have worked the kit down from 86 ltrs, to 80 (not a big step but on that one I can attach my skis) to 65 ltrs... And counting

I live a few hours away, but I honestly had a moment of inspiration during your video where I considered organizing a WTA crew up there, and you all and me and maybe other local followers could do a filmed trail party to revive that trail. How cool would that be?!

I'd be so curious if an uptick in interest in this trail could revive it. But at the same time, part of the magic of this adventure was figuring out how the heck to navigate it!

Hiked the chain lakes loop last week on our visit to northern Washington. All of the hikes we had planned were in for zones so we headed over to the Mt Baker wilderness for this treat! Thankfully it was quite a bit cooler when we were there.

Great video! I love my MR Bridger, but it's mostly for canoe camping. I can totally see it being a beast on an actual hike- it gets a bit old even just on 1-2M portages! But man, if you want a pack that you KNOW will take a beating and just laugh it off it's hard to find anything more durable.

Eric, what a beautiful expression of the joy, the pain, the wonder of the Pacific Northwest alpine. Your views of Mt. Stuart on the morning of day 5 were sublime. But what were you thinking-- going back to a 30# base on a 5 day XC up-and-downer??

First of all, subscribe folks! Eric should have WAY more than 50K subs. Secondly, def do more of these with others in the backpacking youtube community-this is great stuff. It's like I'm a watching a crossover episode of some CW show lol.
