[@AboveTheBigSky]

When your hair curls up on the end... you're scared. Great video, Jess!

[@hyoh-wu]

It was nice yet dificult to donsoemthing different...and it was all unintentional.

[@cameronbrewer3966]

You have become my favorite hiking channel. We will soon be in Rexford as a more permanent situation. Hope to see ya around. Great job as usual

[@hyoh-wu]

Oh man thanks! Yeah if ya hike im sure i will see u on trail at some point. Glad u are enjoying the content....hopefully if weather and fires permitting we can get in 15 to 17 trips this summer. Then hopefully we have a winter so i can take like 2 months off. Lol!

[@NorwayHikesTrails]

Great scenery, nicely filmed. Have a great day 😊

[@hyoh-wu]

Thank you much good sir....thanks for watching...Hope all is awesome in Norway.

[@bryongrueter7177]

My wife and I really enjoy watching all your videos. Looking forward to seeing you and Blitz exploring this summer!

[@hyoh-wu]

Thank you so much! Im looking forward to bringing you more adventures this summer.

[@mount_10_ear19]

Lol I thought so ! Lol great videos man. Looking forwart to more

[@birddogfarms6981]

Great video, Jess....good story, good camera work and editing.....told a terrific story AND the interview at the end really topped it off. A+ for this one.

[@hyoh-wu]

Thanks birddog tom. A case of life is crazier than fiction. It was definetley a challenge getting in there....and ended up being a fun trip(s) and good meemories. Thanks for watching.

[@MountainWestproductions]

Well done this was a good watch. I enjoyed your story telling and determination required to reach the site.. Interesting boy up there, maybe he reached the pinnacle of life and couldn't find another reason to keep looking for fires or maybe it was spotted fever. I think it's something every viewer can take away from. see you next time and happy hiking

[@hyoh-wu]

Thank you so much.. you folks do some good work over there. Its nice that there are people out there that know how important our local history is. My big thing is why is this mountain named this or that creek named that...then ya start going down worm holes. Another part of me wonders if maybe it was hazing gone wrong. The seasoned rangers messing with the new summer worker. But thats a huge accussation. And i believe the head ranger at Raven Ranger Station was Morris Davis....and he's kind of a legend around here. But i say even legends can be surrounded by some bad apples.

[@Olympic_TryAthlete]

Good thing it didn’t come down on you when you were all snug and warm inside. Hate becoming an interesting part of other peoples’ KZbin videos that way. Great video. Good theory on the cause of death also. And the fire during the interview, as if sitting by it telling stories - nice touch.

[@hyoh-wu]

Yeah when i told someone i planned on sleeping in the lookout they told me dont. They were up there in summer of 2023 and said it looked like she was about to come down....and i had saw pictures and it looked in rough shape....but as always pictures dont show the whole story. Weird thing was when i started talking about the suicide attempts i got a weird cold feeling and goose bumps...kinda shocked me a bit...u can see when it happens cause i kinda awkwardly look up and over to the right. But im sure it was just my mind playing tricks on me.

[@keithmeyers1720]

I like it, you put a lot of effort into these, thanks for the history lesson. I get a creepy feeling at Rainbow lake, every time I am there, so I don't go anymore. Somebody is in there. Gonna have to check the LO this summer.

[@hyoh-wu]

Hmmmm...interesting i didnt get any weird vibes up their at Rainbow lake...rahter than the damn ravens kept circling me. Yeah i was extremely disapointed to see the ol girl lying there all disheveled. Thanks for watching and commenting....as much as i love doing these it is work...so always nice when someone notices the work.

[@SaraB1686]

Nate! Great video, Jesse!

[@hyoh-wu]

Thanks Sara! Yeah....i relesed it earlier than i wanted. A friend of mine is have surgery today and wanted him to be able to watch it during his recovery. Glad to hear from ya.

[@bobparsons77]

Every time I see a fox, I will think of this video.

[@hyoh-wu]

ol' Shorty! LoL! FYI...i havent seen any lipodoptrias yet.

[@MtnTechie]

Funny I've never seen a fox down here. Another good video Jess. I'm asking around to all the people I know out in the McKillop area if they have any stories.

[@hyoh-wu]

Aint no foxes cause Shorty Shot Them ! Lol! Yeah...it was a fun one to put together and when i came across the story of MR . Hegg it blew my mind.

[@mountainwanderer]

Great story telling, man! I know it had to be killing you to try 3 times with no video coming out of it! Good to see Nate back out there!

[@hyoh-wu]

Oh man....it was...then i was like well ill just do it in parts/attempts. I really did enjoy the exercise....but im done with that trail for awhile.....it was awesome to have Nate back always good company...unfourtnately we probably wont see him for another year. Something about lettlings his b##s drop. As i say "No woman to follow...the world is all mine."

[@mountainwanderer]

@@hyoh-wu the multiple attempts added to the story

[@marjpatten3541]

Because of the closing of the insane housing

[@hyoh-wu]

Not sure what your comment meant? but tha ks for commenting.

[@CowboyASMR-wo6py]

What kind of dog is Blitz he's beautiful I love your videos I'm from Montana

[@hyoh-wu]

Oh awesome ...we have a lot of beautiful country up here. Blitz is 100% Alaskan Malamute and he weighs only 130lbs. His fluffy fur is what make him look so big. He gets a haircut next Thursday...so he wont look like a hippy any more. lol

[@CowboyASMR-wo6py]

@hyoh-wu nice! They are beautiful dogs! I hope to see you upload more videos I love them!

[@hyoh-wu]

@@CowboyASMR-wo6py yep i have a lot of videos up. And of course more to come this summer....Already have my intinerary done...should hopefully get 16 trips in this summer....weather amd fires permitting.

[@ZombieCartmanYT]

Man I hope you got some footage last night from somewhere awesome in the woods.

[@hyoh-wu]

Actually i was i bed ...had to get up early this a.m. and start filming CLOWN 2. 10HRS OF FILMING. 2 scenes completed.

[@ZombieCartmanYT]

@@hyoh-wu Oh Good

[@waterfallmadman]

Third time is a charm, but you should’ve brought your snowshoes the first two times. Ha ha. Too bad the structure collapsed in the winter. Interesting story too. Also, I had no idea they were still actively manned fire lookouts anymore. that was a bit surprising to me.

[@hyoh-wu]

Madman with the solutions. Lol! I have no excuse of why i didnt...rather than the winter was so weird here and this is a south facing slope for the most part and wasnt expexting any snow....and it was weird...it was al clear trail and i literaly came around a corner the fisrt time and BAM! horrible blow down and snow. Yeah Its crazy about the lookouts. And i came across the Hegg story when I was looking to see how Kenelty Mountain got its name.

[@blackoakpropertymaintenanc6981]

1000......!!!!!!!!!

[@hyoh-wu]

Thank u sir....its been a ling road

[@electrofisher1atmt683]

Fiction... Morris Davis was a hell of man. You know all the stories. HAAAA

[@hyoh-wu]

Robert Hegg was a real man.

[@hotrodh11]

You put a lot of effort into this one good job. I'm going to call BS on the haunting, at least by that kid that killed himself because he died in Minnesota. If you believe in ghosts why would a ghost travel all the way back to Montana?

[@birddogfarms6981]

It's not like he has to take a bus to get back....OR, maybe the place was already haunted, which is why the kid went fruit loops! Hmmmmm.........
