Sawtooth Wilderness Backpacking - Idaho

[@michelledapark]

"Backpacking isn't always easy or comfortable." That's the truth! And yep, always worth it! Nice job on this!

[@hikingmule]

Thanks Michelle! The ebb and flow of a backpacking trip can be extreme for sure. 😉

[@PTPhotography]

Looks like you all had an awesome time. There is seriously so much to explore in the sawtooths. I just wish I had more time. I completely agree that backpacking changes who we are as people.

[@hikingmule]

Thanks and well said! It's a backpackers heaven in that area and I hope to get the chance to explore more.

[@JenniferLupine]

Great trip! Loved all the lakes and scenery! Fun to go with friends and make good memories. Looks really challenging, but worth the effort. Loved the flowers too! 👍😄🌸🌺

[@hikingmule]

Thanks for the kind comment! 😀 I only wish I had more time for these adventures, but take what I can and be thankful.

[@JenniferLupine]

@@hikingmule I know what you mean! There are so many great places to hike and explore!

[@TheKiltedAdventurer]

Idaho...you do get around! What am epic hike with what looks like a great group of mates.

[@hikingmule]

The best! I savor every moment and every adventure.

[@beataclintadventures304]

What an epic journey you hit all the best spots in the Sawtooths. We love Barron Lakes. Wonderful scenery, great video we enjoyed it. 😀

[@hikingmule]

Thank you! Coming down off the pass to Baron was unbelievable. The lakes were amazing and would have been a good spot to stay.

Damn B. These are pretty good videos you are putting together! Looks like you are having a great time. Really happy for you...

[@hikingmule]

Thanks! You know, I can trace the start of this back to when you asked me to run from one brewery to another...

[@scottmalisos3272]

@@hikingmule Hah! That is funny. 😀

[@aakarshsingh07]

Vlogging career ahead!! The effort you put into the video is visible. Looking forward to the next one.

[@hikingmule]

Thanks Aakarsh! It's been pretty fun pulling these together.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Great hiking in some gorgeous areas and stunning views along the trail. I bet that water crossing was cold and it is always nice to share a trip like this with friends. May have been a long journey but when you get a view like you had at Alpine Lake, you know it was worth it, cheers Alan

[@hikingmule]

Thanks and spot on Alan! I love the challenge and beauty, but getting to share this with friends is gold.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

My goodness what an incredible area. Everywhere you hiked there was beautiful scenery. Epic trip and area. Can’t beat good friends and good hiking trails 👍🏻👍🏻

[@hikingmule]

Couldn't agree more! You also nailed it on the friends comment!! Thanks.

[@northeastfamilyadventures9186]

Some beautiful country out in Idaho, and that was an ambitious backpacking trip for sure. Loved the commentary between the days, going from confident optimism on Day 1 to, "we're gonna live" on day 4. You definitely picked a great place view wise to bang out 50+ miles.

[@hikingmule]

Absolutely! Beautiful, challenging and rewarding. Her comment still cracks me up. That snowball was meant for payback for how hard that day was... 😄

[@hikingmule]

Glad you enjoyed it! Hopefully in the future I can get into Sweden, Norway, etc for a trip. From my initial research, there seem to be some amazing wilderness areas up there.

[@DanijelaN.]

This was epic! So many beautiful lakes, and the Sawtooths -- just Wow. I could feel the ups and downs of the trail, and the emotions. Really appreciate how well-crafted this videos is. You put a lot of energy into it, and every moment is enjoyable. Wonderful!

[@hikingmule]

Glad you enjoyed it! It's a fantastic location which was also challenging... well, for someone of my skill level. :) Putting videos together of the adventures has become a relaxing hobby.

[@AlaskanAmblers]

@@hikingmule Awesome -- you do a great job, too! I find the same. I enjoy trying to make the videos as interesting and compelling as I can, and it is a creative process.
