BACKPACKING the ROCKY MOUNTAINS of COLORADO | INDIAN PEAKS Wilderness | Crater Lake

Hi everyone! I hope you enjoy this weeks video. I just wanted to clarify something quickly. At the end of the video I say "Thank you and I'll see you next year." I was only referring to Colorado and the Rocky Mountains...not the channel. Some of you have misunderstood. I'm not going anywhere! You all are stuck with me. haha See you next Sunday!

Nice work - loved your sound tracks - I actually got chills at some parts 😊

You have a great eye for framing shots. I really enjoyed this video.

That was a great hiking adventure. I decided to get up to Crater Lake and enjoyed it thoroughly with all of the water falls, low elevation per mile gain and amazing weather. It was like hiking into a hidden world with all that scenery and skinny dippers at Crater Lake.

Love your adventures, lifestyle, and hiking adventures. If ever you're in Colorado and need a hiking friend, drop me a line. Best, Bryan

What a stunning video, great nature there! I love it, thank you!
Greetings from Haarlem, the Netherlands ❤

Awesome video!

Beautiful video you have inspired me to go here. Thanks

Quite possibly the most beautiful place on Earth. Wonderful vid. Thanks for sharing.

It is July 3rd 2023. I have watched this video sooooooo many times I've lost track .!!!!! The music is absolutely GOOSE BUMPY!!!! Along with the vidio it takes my breath away every time !!!!! Thank you again as always !!!! GOD BLESS& take care!!!!!

Thank you Catherine to share this video it’s very helpful for my trip … can you send me your rout map including where you stay for overnight.
Thank you.

I could do without the trying to have a soft voice narration

Growing up in Lakewood Colorado Rocking Mountain National Park is not that far from my childhood and man it was always a special day to go, Of course I have been there many times! Thank you for your video's .

BEST MUSIC! I listen to skyrim music usually haha

Question: My buddy and our two sons are planning to hike from Monarch Lake Trailhead to Cascade Creek Trail to Cascade Creek Falls. Will we get any of those stunning mountain views along this route? Going all the way to Crater lake is out of reach as the youngest is 5-years-old. My friend and son are flying in from Minnesota, so hoping to make this trip really memorable. Open to other suggestions in this area as well, if you have any. Thank you!

I live in co. & Thanks to you I got to see another place I've never seen . WOW !!!! I'm older now & the knees can't handle what they use to. I've seen some awesome places in my younger years. I'm sooooo thankfull for you taking us on these journeys !!!!! GOD BLESS you !!!!!!

It's about time that somebody shows how beautiful the rocky mountain peaks in Colorado are. I get so sick of seeing the Canadian rocky mountains, and everybody acting like they are the only beautiful Rockies when the peaks in Colorado are actually the tallest in the entire rocky mountain chain. Thanks for this.

Cat this journey was so awesome. It makes me wish I could hike.

Hello Catherine! Great video of your adventure! I’m wondering what map you used and where I might find one like that. Appreciate it!

Hello again. I keep watching your videos and saying this must be the most scenic,until I see another one.this one will be difficult to beat scenery wise.thank you.stay safe.enjoy

Was this in October?

This may have been asked, but I scrolled through the comments but didn’t see it, but did you need permits for the camp sites? 👍👍

My paradise. So many trails in and around the park.

Great video! 🙌

I continue to enjoy your beautiful videography and photos, and am trying to learn from you for my tiny channel 😉 I don’t know if I’ll ever grow, but at least I’m learning in the process (I hope!) Thanks for sharing all these beautiful places. I can’t wait to explore Colorado!

This one was a “wow”. Truly one of the most spectacular videos I’ve seen of yours, Catherine. Thank you. It was beautifully done.

The Indian Peaks wilderness area is second to none in the front range.

New to your channel; 👍!

Hi Cat,
What a beautiful area for a fall hike, absolutely gorgeous, fine choice. Excellent video again. Like I've said I only watch now when I display on my big screen. Your work is worth it.

Cat, great video and scenery as always!!!! 👍 I have a question. Who carried the propane can? 🤔

Another wonderful video ,thank you for taking me along it was simply breathtaking, I love it when you put your arms in the air like you’re praising God. His creation is awesome!!!

Really great video Catherine. Hey, would you consider in the description in the future including the overall distance and elevation gain of your many awesome hikes.

You go to such beautiful places and film such beautiful footage!

I'd be interested to hear what kind of first aid and rescue training you have done in background to your trips.

Wow. Thanks for all your hard work. The experience that came across is so healing.
