Thanks! It was an amazing time

[@AudreyAdventures]

Great video! I'm heading down to do the O Circuit in November and this made me more excited!

[@theworldhiker1]

Awesome! So glad you can go. You’ll love it. One of the most beautiful places on earth!

[@PeakstoStreets]

Hi, this video is awesome! Thank you for creating and sharing. Do you have a list of all the gear you took for this trip?

[@theworldhiker1]

Hey thanks! I don't have a list of all the gear. Base layers, fleece, rain gear of course for the wet conditions are a must.

[@axcab3437]

Excellent video. Very informative. Thanks for posting! Planning to do the O in January. What camp had that delicious meal at 13.20??

[@theworldhiker1]

Thank you. I hope you can do it. We had a great dinner at Paine Grande on our last night camping.

[@YongsungKim]

So beautiful. Is there a season for better weather?

[@theworldhiker1]

Thanks Yongsung. Summer has the longest days, however I've heard that fall often is more stable weather

[@nivsa100]

I am out for the same in March but over 8 days.

[@theworldhiker1]

You will really enjoy it!

What time of year was this!

[@theworldhiker1]

Late December

[@effar]

Great video, thanks. I was thinking of exactly this itinerary. Were there any restrictions around what time you had to start the hike to Serón by (after doing the mirador hike) on the first day?

[@theworldhiker1]

Thanks! Glad you are thinking of doing this route. No one told us what time we had to be on the trail which was good.

[@effar]

That’s good to know, thanks!

[@maxchmielewski]

Wonderful video. We are planning an O circuit fastpack for 2025 after we failed to secure reservations last season. How were you able to book so few nights? I've reached out to Vertice and they claim you're required to stay at Dickson/Perros/Grey? Thanks so much for the help!

[@theworldhiker1]

Thanks! I booked the nights online with the different companies and was able to not book Dickson. Not sure if the system has changed but it worked for me.

[@princesadelaos]

you cant skip more than one camp during one day so you can do seron/los perros (skipping dickson) or dickson/los perros (skipping seron) on the first part, same for the second part. los perros is obligatory stay bc it's the camp before the pass, probably the hardest area and day

Great video! What time of year was this?

[@theworldhiker1]

@@SoggyTreks I hope you enjoy it! It is such a beautiful route!

[@caracugomelos]

That’s a long first day! You guys are 💪 How many miles/vert on day 1?

[@theworldhiker1]

Thanks! it was a big first day. I believe it was about 20 miles and 5,000 feet of vert if memory serves me right.

[@MiniEggs1999]

What time of year was this? Did you need much spending money on the trail itself? Thanks

[@theworldhiker1]

We did this route at the end of December. We used the parks tent set up twice and got one dinner along the way. Maybe about 80 dollars a person total I believe

[@bobbyboombeck]

Hola, vives in Sacramento? Muy bien. Vivo en Santa Rosa. Muy cerca de ti. I'm looking at hiking the O this November. I was told that you have to stay at the campsites and can't skip them? (kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXS3imOCocR-m7s) I'd prefer to do it in 4 - 5 days.

[@theworldhiker1]

Hola, Si vivo en Sacramento. Yes we found that we could skip campsites as long as we had reservations for one ahead on the trail.

[@bobbyboombeck]

@@theworldhiker1 Do you have an itinerary for which sites you stayed at? Your schedule looked appealing to me.

[@theworldhiker1]

@@bobbyboombeck We went up to the base of the towers then counterclockwise and stayed night 1:Seron night 2: Los perros Night 3: Paine Grande and finished late on day 4 at the main entrance parking lot

[@bobbyboombeck]

@@theworldhiker1 super helpful. Thanks!

[@bobbyboombeck]

@@theworldhiker1 on day 4 did you go to Britanico Lookout (W part of the O) and then back to Base Torres, or did you skip those parts since you did Base Torres on day 1?
