A weekend hike taken in Shenandoah National Park during January 2010. After nearly 2,500 nights spent on trail, the sunrise I saw here in this video was probably the most stunning. Glad to have a camera to capture the moment, and share it with you.

  • I like your winter camping videos.

    They remind me of winter hiking and camping in the Wayne National Forest up in Ohio.

    No Bugs, No Bears, and No people. Just peace and quiet.

    We would have the most beautiful full moon nights there. Casting shadows from the trees.

    Last trip I did it was -13 overnight. Cold but really nice.

    I need to get back into winter camping.

    Thanks for the inspiration.

  • though winter trail hiking can involve certain hardships of sorts, one of the benefits is that you really don't have to go to far into the backcountry to feel "out there" in winter. and no bugs, no bugs are a plus indeed. -thanks

  • wow, what a spectacular video! i have TOO many favourite shots to mention!! loved the view at 1:07, the sunrise shot at 3:07, and the frost tipped shrubs that turn pink at 3:37/3:51! amazing!

  • 2:34 wow

  • Breathtaking

  • @ryan1059 It just sort of happened, I didn't plan it at all. Nearly every hike I took was in an 8 month increment. In 96 with almost 1000 miles under my belt I started my first thru hike. The following 10 years (96-06) were spent mostly on this trail in 8 month journeys. It sounds crazy I know, but there are others like me, with even more time out, a few. I was fortunate to be able to do it. 6.3 years of great memories. That sunrise was one of the best I ever saw, and I saw a lot. thanks

  • @SaddleBackMountain10 Thanks, glad you enjoyed. Rangeley is a beautiful place, and the trail around that area is awesome. Saddleback was the first mtn I ever climbed, and one of my favorite places to be. Shenandoah, well, it sure is no Maine, but it's a nice enough place. ...see you in the mountains, thanks again!

  • @RampsAndTaters Thank you, I'm glad you like it!
