"WhereThe Air Is Thin" Backpacking Adventure by Nutnfancy

The Summer 2010 Nutnfancy backpack crew sets out on another high mountain adventure, this time climbing above 11,700 feet. The hike is arduous and holds danger at several points. The views are stunning. We hike past and show the waterfalls, creeks, snow fields, alpine basins, quaking aspens and conifers, valley views, mountain flowers, high mountain meadows, boulder and talus slopes and the associated knife ridges, and a beautiful glacier. In this crew are Nutnfancy, son LastSuspect, and our intrepid Mountain Dog, Allie. We enjoy the frequent and close by company of our mountain goat friends as we reach the peak with awe inspiring views. High winds on the peak, a treacherous 25 foot cliff decent, and a glacier glissade required extra care but conquered safely. We log about 20 miles in our hiking and backpacking adventure in WTAIT adventure and it is exhausting, even being in shape. We press on through some minor injuries and chalk up another memorable adventure. These videos help us share that memory with you (they are hard to make too!). Watch for the WTAIT Actual series. Thanks for coming along. //////////// Music: "Takin Yo Time ( The Wingman Mix )" by Loveshadow (feat. Brad Sucks and Audiotechnica)
