Backpacking the Tombstone Mountains, Yukon Territory

Wonderful! So beautiful.

I can't wait to go back! I drove the dempster back in 2003... my favorite place in the world!

Excuse me CanadaAurora, but you say you can generalize about our "haughty-good ol' boy" American group from a video? Sorry we offended your sensibilities.

I sadly conclude that, while in the past I, too, generalize to folks, in this case about the universal tkindness of Canadians every time during my frequent visits, but I guess there are obviously exceptions, judging by your note.

[CanadaAuroraBorealis]

Its not hard to tell these guys are Americans, based on their haughty - good ole boys culture, even without the mention of Colorado. When I vacationed in Alaska, I was treated like an absolute unknown foreigner, from the other side of the earth, even though the Yukon and British Columbia (CANADA) borders that state for 1500 miles.

Two important things.

1. You look like you had fun.

2. You weren't eaten by grizzlies.

What was the maximum elevation of where u guys all hiked? Roughly ofcourse

[twoodburn]

@freezinteen, can't remember, but not that high. The challenges are in the brush and the sometimes slick talus, uneven terrain and the "trail".

Great video! It really provides a great overview of the popular backcountry spots. Decending Glissade Pass and traveling down the North Klondike Valley were spot on :) I'm glad you had a great trip! Ranger Alice

Wow, I dont know how I found this video but I am so glad I did. So so so beautiful! I didnt want the video to end! Too bad we live aways away...sigh....but now I have reason to dream!

[hellonieman]

how warm was it up there?

[twoodburn]

Not too bad...it was the 3rd week of August & on the rainy days it was probably in the 50s and 60s on nice weather days, 40s at night. But on our last day, cold and rainy in the 40s and we heard of snow further north on the Dempster Highway.

Very nice video. I have been up the Dempster several times. Tombstone Mountains are beautiful. I see in your other videos you are a bluegrass fan. Check my channel, we are bluegrass musicians, my son and I.

[clutch10001]

great video always wanted to go the yukon sooon...also what songs playin at the end

[twoodburn]

The slow song near the end is "Farewell to Bitterroot Valley" by Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer and the bluegrass ending is, "Mountain Jumper" by Crooked Still. Both great artists. Glad you liked the video, the Yukon is absolutely awesome in every respect.

[twoodburn]

Didn't see any Grizzly during our 6 days in there, but lots of sign of them passing through on the trails and they had to close the roadside campground shortly after we left when someone left food in their tent.

fantastic video! i'd like to do some long hikes someday in the tombstone range, these images give me more motivation to do so...

how was the grizzly bear situation throughout the hike?
