Moose, Mountains & More! A Week of Adventures in Wild Places (Vanlife/SUV Camping)

[@ovherlander]

That was EPIC! I hiking but my old knees can’t take that much elevation...especially coming back down😉 Thanks for the beautiful vicarious journey!

[@maggiesfarm7970]

I know about the old knees keeping you from hiking! Bummer!

[@randallhughes3062]

One of my favorite of your videos. I have never seen anywhere more beautiful, including Grand Canyon, then the Tetons. I can't hike the elevation like you can but you can take us there with you. I am sure you are loving your home in Idaho where adventure is just outside the door.

[@sharondavis8003]

Love all the high mountain climbs 🌲🏕🏔 The views from high up are totally breathtaking! The world is a beautiful place. 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@conniewaite1996]

Really gods country! I like seeing the trees,not much for desert.just beautiful,thanks

[@candlesbyvictoria]

One of my favorite videos of yours. You are one hiking champ.. that was a lot but wow the payoffs were just outstanding, such beauty!!!! Thank you for sharing and I really enjoyed the longer video.

[@freedomdove]

Just beautiful, but how exhausted you must have been at the end! I, like all the other viewers, really do appreciate you taking us along on these hikes that many of us will never be able to do ourselves. I don't see how you do it, seeing how you've had those hip operations. You're one tough cookie. Lol.

[@joycecaudell6047]

Absolutely awesome adventures! I so appreciate you taking us along so that we can remember great hiking from younger days and travel vicariously with you! We would never get to see these wildflowers, views and trails without your efforts! I’m 75 and appreciate you sharing your strength and fitness. Thanks again!

[@eddymahon1503]

You must do a heck of a lot of backtracking to retrieve your cameras when you hike away from them. The footage of the Tetons is spectacular. One of my favorite places in the country.

[@shilohandme3697]

I enjoy your mountain hikes very much. At 65 and heart disease I can only enjoy the hikes through your eyes. Thanks so much.

[@ndlz1]

😳 I would be so lost! This almost made me cry the beauty of it all! TY for sharing this.🙏🏻

[@robertphillips93]

Thanks for your videos, Tristan. Your preference for exploration over destination and experience over accomplishment agrees with my outdoor inclinations. I'm curious about a couple of things in that regard, though. In selecting cross-country routes, or even on some high country trails for that matter, you often need to traverse some sketchy terrain. Your inclusion of the occasional spill is good evidence for that! But I was wondering if you carry micro-spikes for emergency use when you think it could be needed; and also what is your go-to footwear(s)? May your travels always lead Home!

[@spacekhana]

Watching and daydreaming in the middle of a busy city where I live. Thanks for wonderful videos. That was some hike you did on this day!

[@dianabanana6724]

my friend and I were just talking about going to the Grand Tetons the other day and then I found your video. Absolutely magnificently stunning.

[@arnoldsmith1165]

Thank you for making this epic video of these epic hikes. It is truly inspirational for this "60 something" viewer. Having enjoyed decades of similar wilderness experience, I find your inclusion of statistics very pertinent and your constantly improving video production a most palatable morsel of topographic delight. Cheers. AJS

[@gloria5873]

WOW, you are in great shape hiking those beautiful mountains. I loved hearing the birds and seeing some of the wild life. Love your videos!

[@jonlouis2582]

My favorite is the incredible scenery and your amusing but extremely chill personality. You people sure have big mountains out west! That was a crazy amount of hiking in one week. I only saw a moose once when I lived in Vermont, and it was a baby, so I got the hell out of there before I crossed paths with the Mom. They are very cute.

[@kellyzabriskie7332]

My favorite part was seeing the Teton’s up close and from this side of the mountains. Everyone knows the view of the East side but few see the West side of these mountains. Another great video thanks for sharing.

[@breathedeep]

Would love love to be able to push myself to do as much hiking as you do. Am impressed at how you can get around these beautiful places. Thank you!

[@michelleharrell8452]

Wha t beautiful green vistas. An awesome waterfall. Seemed so green & lush.

[@jtwanderer6328]

Yes, Epic! What amazingly beautiful footage! You chose such wonderful light to capture the peaks and high meadows and absolute grandeur! Thanks for all the energy and art in your videos!

[@margreetanceaux3906]

Face Trail, not maintained, very steep, not recommended… Oké, let’s do that. Magnificent again, Tristan. Thank you so much!

[@susanshaver912]

Absolutely gorgeous!!! I wish you would put location, at least state, into that top part where you have #vanlife, etc. You have convinced me at the age of 74 to put a bed in the back of my SUV Xterra! So I just came back from boondocking in the Upper Peninsula in the incredible fall colors for the last week. Thank you!

[@BlueFlyer21]

you seem to have a supernatural ability to buzz around huge distances

[@Jax4umalta]

The scenery in your new location is absolutely magnificent it was definitely one of the more scenic videos. I really truly love the drone footage. Thank you so much for sharing. You could almost feel how majestic the grand Tetons are. Cheers Tristan!

[@nanchesca3950]

Good lord that's a lot of hiking in one day!! Beautiful country!! Did you make or purchase that pouch you have your bear spray in attached to the chest strap of your pack?

[@patsikora5169]

I love those pretzels also.Thank you for taking us with you on this awesome trip.I loved it.I love climbing

[@deborahanderson5508]

That is beautiful country,thank you for being a steward of the land. I pray it remains so beautiful. Thank you for doing such a great job of filming your trip! Have you ever wanted to do a long distance hike? PCT, AT,CDT

[@henryi9738]

That was a freakin' amazing Teton hike ! thank you

[@jonwarner1977]

At around 20 min ... Those are ichnofossils. Essentially fossilized worm burrows.

[@lindamoses3697]

This brings back memories of Darby Girls Camp and our hike to Table Rock in my youth. Fun.

[@teslah2997]

WOW! what fantastic views ! How did I miss seeing this vid of yours until now??? glad I now found it.....one of the best. Thanks, as always, Tristan!

[@robincrook5630]

Wow! Great footage and I am simply awed that you can find your way down properly w/o an established trail. Gotta say, my favorite part was the moose. We just spent the past 4 days exploring some historical sites around towns like Stanley (we camped at Altruas lake...amazingly peaceful until the last night when the weekenders started coming in), Challis, and the tiny places along the Salmon river. Could not hike because I was in the middle of a cold...but still, learned lots of history of how people survived the cold winters in those towns, and how many native Idahoans left the ever growing city of Boise to live in towns that barely contain 63 regular residents. Ha, came back home tonight to North Ogden and thought "Man, this town is too crowded". lol Absolutely beautiful mountain footage...can't wait to go back and give some of those ATV trails a second look (on foot of course). Thanks!

[@davidcolinstillman5585]

BREATHTAKING VIEWS & COLORS ! BEAUTIFUL VIDEO ! BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS ! ENJOYED !

[@caraoosterhouse7348]

What a spectacular video. Thanks for taking us along and for sharing your passion for the beautiful mountains of Idaho and Wyoming.

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks for watching, Cara!

[@juadonna]

Thanks for bring us along, once again, on this mountain climbing marathon! Loved the moose and the other furry critter scrambling amongst the rocks. The clouds around Grand Teton's summit added to the mystery of the epic peak. Love to Cassie and Bowser. Stay safe and drive carefully.

[@robertwagner7867]

Really enjoying your Idaho/Wyoming vids! I lived in Evanston during an internship so I have a great appreciation for the area. Thanks!

[@NHMOMBIE]

The lake looks like it's smiling 😃

[@halabujioutdoors]

Grateful for your time and efforts! I especially like that you show GPS data for your viewers. Sceneries are breathtaking. Thanks a lot!

[@bevliechty1161]

Thank you what a beautiful sight

[@jamiereith7698]

Loved this video! I wouldn’t be able to handle the altitude, so thank you for taking us along on your adventure.

[@jeffMinnesota952]

nice. loving the drone shots, great views from up above, thanks for sharing...

[@lynnlmr2032]

Beautiful scenery. Im an Aussie so to see this is wonderful. Love the flora, so different to ours. Really admire your attitude to the wild animals, I mean you have bears and mountain lions. You never seem worried. Great vid. Thanks

[@SUVRVing]

Nah, there's nothing to worry about. The animals usually don't want anything to do with humans.

[@jillk2316]

Oh boy!! for you and your lifestyle, I think you have picked the perfect place to live and hike and share... at least or as long as you choose to stay in this area. :) For me,,,, i'd say FOREVER! :) I cant believe how many sights you got to see on this trip!! awwwww, i remember when i had strong legs,,,,,,, and balance ;) Great video!

[@bevliechty1161]

Beyond belief just amazing

[@jakejacobs8136]

Strong effort!! Thanks for taking us along.

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks for watching!

[@samanthadodd8112]

Wow almost a marathon length and there aren't evaluation gains for marathons in one day and then another long day after... Ur awesome.

[@elflordsjourneys]

Your a modern day John Muir hiking beast! 😀Tetons one of our favorite places in the West.

[@michaelchase5751]

Don't know how I missed this last year but am glad I found one of your very best vids. I really liked the moose-or meese, we don't see those in the western part of Idaho but thanks for taking us along...

[@brownpaperbag5343]

I just knew the new territory would lead to awesome sights. Love the new scenery also it’s good to be catching up on videos again. I did miss your adventures. Cheers and thank you.

[@oldboater]

Impressive numbers, elevation, mileage and beautiful and moose to boot. Also some great background music.i

[@lucyharrow462]

Fantastic drone footage. Beautiful mountains. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Can't wait to visit those states one day.

[@chrissanfino761]

Awesome video! I love how you go off the trail to make a loop. At 21:00 according to Google maps, that glacier is named Schoolroom Glacier. Beautiful footage. Subscribed.

[@Fabgonecarcamping]

Always amaze of your hikes.

[@davidviner5783]

Thanks for showing us yet more amazing landscapes in the western USA. I am convinced that America west of the Rockies, together with the south-western deserts, has the most interesting and accessible hiking anywhere on earth. PS. I am not American.

[@perfectlylonely]

Flat Top hike. Stunning vistas

[@Hiker_Mike]

Awesome. Thank you for sharing your travels Tristan!

[@TheJBirch]

Great video. Just added a hike to the top of Table Mountain to my list while I'm out that way this summer.

[@SUVRVing]

It's a great hike!

[@JulieAiken]

Gorgeous! Thank you.

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks!

[@kumakaze666]

Wow, multiple 4K gains in one week? God I miss my 20s. Haha!😜 My knees ache just thinking about it. Well done sir, gorgeous views as usual. 👍

[@DJBoise]

Loved the video and the music selection.

[@harveyarmbrust4094]

Great beautiful stuff!! I would recommend hiking poles.

[@anitabackroadsonly9086]

Incredible views!

[@John-ve3gg]

Another great one thank you for sharing your adventures

[@bruceso797]

Nice video. But I miss your desert videos and the wide open spaces with spectacular views.

[@terrimccain9697]

One of my favorite videos of yours

[@safeharbor7]

This was a very enjoyable video, big thumbs up...

[@MaxZomboni]

Wow, this is your best adventure yet. 32:35 I believe that is the Wind River Range on the horizon, mostly obscured by clouds. I'd love to see you explore more of Wyoming and the Tetons. It seems a little more practical, then driving all the way to the panhandle of Idaho. and a lot better scenery too IMHO. :)

[@DeinTubeMeister]

After watching MANY of your videos (thanks BTW👏👍🏻😉), I have to finally add a comment and ask a question, too. The Tetons are difficult to beat! 😍 When I hiked Table Mountainthe first time, I thought it was definitely in my top 3 of all of my hikes as well. I share your sentiment: the actual hike is very nice, but the views up top are unparalleled. And, the seas of wildflowers close to the final push (usually the best in early to mid August) are amazing. Question: which way did you go down/made a loop out of it? As your mileage was 14-ish, I assume you scrambled down and over to Hurricane Pass!? It did not seem you took the more popular "Huckleberry Trail"/N.Teton Creek Trail. Hurricane, just by itself, is a great hike, too. Greetings from Montana! 👋😎

[@charlesgarthmasters5121]

Mmmm, peanut butter and honey sandwiches! Add a banana and a glass of soy milk, and I'm a happy camper.

[@shemajragin4606]

Awesome vlog and thanks for sharing :-)

[@dgrGR61]

My favorite part was the yogurt covered pretzels.

[@birdman5223]

Gr8 content and 🎶s. Gr8 vibe🌝

[@alexa_explores]

Awesome video.

[@oldboater]

Great background music!

[@kenlodge3399]

Absolute, El Supremo, El Bel Grande, Maximoso mountain hike video believe have ever seen. Totally jealous, envious, wish I was there, count yourself lucky, blessed, closer to God... WOW! Love the Tetons, my favorite range since forever slash first laid eyes on it slash breathed it's air. WTG

[@chellythompson]

Awesome! Views

[@BS2Dos]

Good one! 👍👍

[@susanmboudreau]

Wow gorgeous

[@coryshook7648]

Dude you amaze me!

[@SUVRVing]

Thanks 😁

[@livinglike_lisa7954]

Wow, outstanding video and views! This has to be one of my most favorite videos of yours. Are you still going to do the Unita backpacking trip with your brother this summer?

[@royrice8597]

I’m thinking of all the doubling back you have to do to retrieve your camera on long shots. Thanks!! 👍👍👍

[@coniferousforests8030]

really nice way of doing hiking videos. Nice. What else to say.

[@TedDixonChannel]

Awesome!

[@FindersKeepers88]

Good Trip

[@drsfly11]

Nice!

[@petermccall8975]

Great video, deserves more views! Put "Tetons from the Other Side" in title, and watch the count.

[@miguelcabal1397]

Beautiful and informative videos!! Do I need any license or permit to fly a drone in those locations and to publish the videos like you did?

[@johnwren3976]

Wonderful. Outstanding video. Thank you. My wife's 5th great uncle, 2x removed was Rocky Mountain Harry Yount who was part of the Harden Geological Survey in the 1870s. Harry with A.D. Wilson (cartographer) almost were 1st to climb Grand Teton but ended a few hundred feet short at The Enclosure. It was another 20 years before someone climbed the summit. He later became the first game warden at Yellowstone National Park. Interesting character. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Yount You might find his uncle interesting, too. George C. Yount who was a trapper and member of William Wolfskill's party out of New Mexico. Came to California in 1831. He was the first Euro-American permanent settler in the Napa Valley, where he was the grantee of two Mexican land grants. Yountville, California is named for him.

[@BS2Dos]

Beware the pointy logs! 😃

[@joantharp8973]

Hi Tristan Im wondering if you have some safety features imbedded in your hiking travels so people know where you are. So that if you were injured you can be easily found

[@raybetts3795]

What kinda of cargo box is that on top of your vehicle? Enjoy your videos!!

[@bertkelly7650]

I sure didn't subscribe for your cooking videos, but I did try your pan pizza. It was ok. : )

[@corneaters3107]

:( summer over and I loved the video

[@caroleelagrone9729]

You mentioned something that sounded like "splutt bags"? It was in reguards To putting the left over pizza away.

[@SUVRVing]

Ziploc

[@oscarmolinaoutdooradventur1648]

😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jamespalmer4224]

As I watch you doing all this alone, I'm thinking you should have a companion for safety reasons. What if you broke an ankle or leg. Also, I'm sure there are Bears & Cougars up there. Just wondering???

[@connievantravels]

Just wondering ... what plans have you made for handling mechanical breakdowns or medical emergencies when you are in remote areas on forest service or BLM roads where you may not have cell phone coverage and/or roadside assistance companies do not provide service. Do you have a satellite messenger or SOS device? I'm wondering because I need to make plans before I start traveling.

[@cooltechandmore]

what drone do you use.?

[@Barley150]

Were you winded up there?

[@chrisstaylor8377]

What time of year was this ?
