15:07 😍 nice friend

[@Drons-xe1my]

I love watching you videos with my 5 year old she loves the outdoors

[@NinaDefilla]

Aww that’s so cute! 🥰

[@bel8500]

Hey! Solo female hiker here, I live in revelstoke! I had a grizzly encounter alone last October. I certainly understand that feeling. Love your video

[@NinaDefilla]

Hey! Thanks for watching ☺️ omg I haven’t had a grizzly encounter yet thankfully. How was that?

[@sterndrives]

Thank you!

[@NinaDefilla]

You bet! Happy you liked the video

[@ofthenearfuture]

Could not have timed it more perfectly for the larches, truly incredible landscapes... what an epic hike! Wonder Pass has been on my bucket list for a while now, so this has really motivated me to try again for 2023!

[@NinaDefilla]

Seriously! The timing was perfect. I need to go back to do Wonder Pass as well. I’ve been through it once, and it was beautiful! But I didn’t take any photos or film anything.

Such an amazing backbacking trek, one which is tied for 1st with Berg Lake. Great video. Thanks for allowing me to relive my time there. Hey 🐻, Hey 🐻😮😂 It’s their land so just gotta share it while there. On our way to the Nub we saw a mum and 2 cubs at Sunburst Lake. We sang so loudly and terribly 😂

[@NinaDefilla]

Glad you enjoyed my video! I agree with you about Berg Lake. I’ve been patiently waiting for the day that trail opens up again 🤞🏻

[@JG-iw2ey]

The scenery that is hard to experience in my hometown, Seoul is really good I enjoyed the video👍🏻

[@NinaDefilla]

Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️

Looks deadly. I’m liking the videos. I’m headed to chilkoot in august. These videos get me pumped haha.

[@NinaDefilla]

Wow thank you! I’m happy that I can do that for you 🥰

[@19Jerseyst]

Hi!! soo Im newer to BC moved to Vancouver from Ontario. just found your channel doing some research about back packing out here! I've been hiking lots but have yet to do the overnight trips. Really searching to find myself some independence & I think nothing seems better then being self sufficient backpacking in mother nature! stoked to of found your page to be able to learn & watch some cool adventures. you seem super chill and down to earth! thankyou so much for sharing :)

[@NinaDefilla]

Hey! Thanks for watching 😊 overnight trips changed the game for me. I love being able to wake up in the mountains for sunrise!

[@-_-MCO-_-]

Great video documenting a much less known area of the park with Og Lake and I am not sure if you have already made a video of this or not but I suggest going up to the Bugaboo Provincial Park and backpack there

[@NinaDefilla]

Great suggestion! That’s on my list 😊

[@MoosebearAdventures]

Great vid. Thank you

[@NinaDefilla]

Glad you liked it!

[@trentschlamp]

Loved how you put this together, really well done, but my favorite thing? That color grade 😍

[@NinaDefilla]

Wow thank you! I can’t take full credit for the colour grade though. I’m still learning that stuff, so I purchased Matti Haapoja’s presets. Love them 😍

[@trentschlamp]

@@NinaDefilla Oh I hear ya! I love a good preset. You still crushed it Nina!💪

Whata place! For sure on my bucket list for my next Canada visit now :D and I think next time it has to be autumn. Anywhere one can see your photos?

[@NinaDefilla]

Hey! Sorry for the late reply here. You can see photos on IG @ninadefilla

[@akmeteam]

beautiful places. I love that you show parts of Canada and I hope at some point we can make a trail together or a video, Who knows 😊

Dat place is a complete show off. Dewd what in the even fucktual ack wack what what how?? how???? Such taste from the designer (s). Thx for this vid just what I was looken for! : D

such a cool park

[@NinaDefilla]

Agreed 😍

[@AustinDerek]

Sick vid! BTW, your microphone link didn't work for me.

[@NinaDefilla]

Ohh no. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for letting me know!

[@stepsforthesoul]

So beautiful! How did you get permits for these hikes. Im from the States and not sure they operate in Canada

[@NinaDefilla]

I linked the permit info in the description

[@jackiamato138]

What an amazing adventure, thank you for sharing. I would love to do this with a friend, not ready to do the solo part. How did you plan your itinerary for this trip? As it looked perfectly planned out. Many questions for you.

[@NinaDefilla]

The first time I went with a friend! Since I had already visited before I felt more comfortable and it was easy to plan out where to go. Plus I always research heavily online before I visit places.

[@JoyceeZhang]

When in Sept did you go? We want to catch the larches too! Thanks

[@NinaDefilla]

It’s a bit different every year, but this time I was there at the very end of September into October

[@Kaisersozze]

Amazing views. I'm confused when you said you're worried hiking by yourself as there's people hiking and camping in all your shots.

[@NinaDefilla]

I hiked alone the whole 5km to Og Lake on the first day. That was the only time I was a bit nervous

[@Kaisersozze]

@@NinaDefilla ah okay

[@morningaftercoffee]

Hi Nina, what bag are you using in this video? For some reason, the links in for the trekking bag in the description doesn’t show up on me, it says page couldn’t be found 😖

[@NinaDefilla]

This is the Fjallraven Kajka 60 I believe

[@HaiWang-u4t]

I soloed the other side from BC side, which were stunning views with lesser people, actually the whole day only me in the area, 42 km away from highway 92. You can find my photos of Assiniboine Lake in Google Map, which I deemed it the number one Lake in the Rockies.

[@NinaDefilla]

Awesome! Oohh ok I’ll have to check that out 👀

[@christianaeckert2976]

Could you do a starter pack video for solo lady travellers? I used to backpack with my Dad all the time but I’m never sure of what supplies to buy now! Just like, what equipment is essential and what clothes to bring. Thanks!

[@NinaDefilla]

Hi Christiana! I have a video where I show and explain all of my backpacking gear. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4TZapemgaucg9k

[@kaiseiSeason2]

i really liked your video! which season did you go? is this in September?

[@NinaDefilla]

This was October 1st. We had a really warm fall so the larch trees turned yellow a lot later than they normally do

[@kaiseiSeason2]

@@NinaDefilla I see, it’s so pretty!thank you for replying:)

[@michaelfrymus]

Og lake looked pretty. You skipped Porcupine campground and went to Og? Is that one better?

[@NinaDefilla]

I think Porcupine is on the hike in when you start from Sunshine. I didn’t come in that way

[@kingofbratz3626]

Awesome video. Being a BC girl, how about a Bigfoot hike?

[@NinaDefilla]

A Bigfoot hike?

9:19 / 11:37 So beautiful...

[@amalius93]

hi, are there permanent tent sites in the wild in canada? 😊 Does that mean you can't camp anywhere around the area you are in other than those places? In Norway we don't have permanent tent sites in the mountains. I'm a bit curious about it. Can you explain a bit more about it in your own video?😄

[@NinaDefilla]

Hey! It depends where you are. But there are a lot of places where you need permits to camp, and are only permitted to camp on designated areas

[@amalius93]

@@NinaDefilla okay, so special🙊 very funny to hear how big the difference can be from country to country☺️ but is there a separate page where you can ask for permission to camp then? or how do you find out, and how long does it take before you get an answer to that? so curious 🤩

[@chicogomez33]

hello, when did you do this trip?

[@NinaDefilla]

Hey! This was the first week of October in 2022. We had a really beautiful/late fall season though. Normally these conditions would be mid September

[@pennyvandyke5198]

Looking for very easy backpack places to see on the island. Hi from Campbell river

[@NinaDefilla]

Hi Penny! I haven’t done a lot of hiking on the island yet. Just a few spots. I’ll come back soon though ☺️

[@T-Auz]

Do you have to be helicoptered in?

[@NinaDefilla]

No you don’t, but the hike is around 30km each way 😅
