This is, I think, the most visually stunning video you've created thus far. The quality of the equipment, camera angles, subject matter, etc are top notch. And of course huge shout out to Aaron's outstanding editing skills- I especially loved the tent setup sequence and starry night 💕 but of course the real star of the show was the coyote encounter- moved me to tears. What an incredible experience! This is why I hike solo as well. Thank you thank you thank you for taking us along with you. I hope you know how much it means to so many of us 💕

Keep up that hiking, girl, because I can see much more of the beauty of these mountains thru your eyes in your videos. Thank you for sharing your experiences! Look forward to the next video!! : )

@@ShelbyWalkerAdams Honestly, sometimes I do. But, I’ve been camping alone for a long while now. Bad things can happen anywhere anytime. I think of it this way, yes…A human can choose to do something to me that can make a huge impact on me. That’s their choice. Not mine. I’m choosing to live my life regardless of others choices. I do take safety precautions: situational awareness, not announcing that I’m alone, knife, and pepper spray. I trust my gut. You can also carabiner your tent closed at night. For me personally, I prefer to to alone in the deep wilderness over any sort of noisy party. My last camping adventure was in the Teton backcountry. The people camping around me were of my same mindset and attitude. I was left alone at camp, but met the friendliest people on trail. Try it out and have an adventure! What choice do YOU want to make?

Really enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Great photo work! I've been solo backpacking since I was a teenager (first trip in 1973). I really enjoy the solitude and the ability to go at my own pace. I also really like how after a few days of isolation you start picking up on the environment around you and start smelling, hearing and seeing things you wouldn't notice if you were with a bunch of people. Hoping I'll be physically able to do the PCT SOBO in 4 years since I'm getting older.

Awesome video! After years of suffering from migraines I was finally able to find some long term relief. I was living in Arizona at the time and I discovered desert hiking. It was so amazing. After all that suffering I felt like discovered the outdoors again. I just wanted to hike all the time. My wife would be grudgingly go with me. At the recommendation of a friend I convinced her to do a “day hike” to Flagstaff….Humphries Peak. I had no idea….our little day hike turned into a 12 hour mountain climb. We were totally not prepared. A light jacket, tennis shoes, no hat, no gloves or rain gear. We each had a small container of water and some beef jerky. Once we got over the tree line I kept pushing her to keep going despite a very cold wind that would literally blow us over. False peak after false peak. Scrambling up the side we finally made to the top at 12,600ft. It was freaking awesome! Once to the top we realized we were only halfway done. It was a long hike back. We’re divorced now and don’t think she ever forgave me for that day! I would totally do that again. My guess she won’t go near a hike ever again!

That was a gorgeous trail, for sure!

Dixie, may God always be with you on your travels and protect you.

The sequence starting at 1:45 is a great example of nectar robbing! This is a behaviour where a bee will drink nectar from a flower through a hole bitten into the base of the flower, rather than entering through the flower's actual opening. So the bee gets nectar, but doesn't get coated in the flower's pollen - it's interesting because that bee is not facilitating pollination, as we expect all bees to do, because it is avoiding getting coated in pollen!! Really awesome observation!!

I've been watching your videos for a few years now, and I live in Colorado so now you're hiking terrain similar to what I've experienced, and I so love that you got the up close video of the coyote for so long!! You have great equipment, and really spent a long time with that coyote, well done! Thank you for the beautiful footage!

Solo trips are the best! Beautiful shots in this!! Coyotes can be incredible to hike with. I see them a lot in the mornings here in California, and I love when I get to hear them barking and howling!

Hi legend.! Great to seeyou still conquering the snowy rocky mountain. The coyote is most probably calling for its cups or partner. At time we can tell by the sound other animale make, what else is around & close by. It'ssomething worth researching & learning by all backpackers & hikers when adventuring in area where there's other inhabitants besides humans. Stay safe matey. greetings from Australia.

Well that was a wonderful video I got so into it that it was gone before I had a chance to say or do anything. That coyote could have been a male also they squat too from time to time. That trail reminded me so much of the Granite Canyon Trail up out of Jackson Hole Wyoming over into Alaska basin, when you was looking down on that water that reminded me a lot of that. I took that trail I just mentioned in 1976 in the middle of the summer and on the way down I came down towards Jenny Lake, down through hurricane pass and I stopped to take a picture of the Grand Tetons all three of them it took two pictures and when I held the camera down to see if I had any more film and I looked up the clouds had already dropped and covered the Grand Teton itself that told me right off the bat I better get down off that mountain cuz I was in short sleeve shirt and shorts and by the time I got down to my pack it was snowing on me but I loved every minute of it. I thought you might enjoy my little trip into Tetons the trip you just made reminded me of it so much. Thanks for the video have a great day and stay safe out there Dixie.
