Heaven's Gate, huh? Beautiful country.
Maybe a different month would not have black flys?

Fantastic video! You really captured the essence of funking! I mean hiking! Thanks for a great 12 minutes! Cant wait for summer to come back now! :D

Great video! Next time though, I would recommend treating your clothing and pack with permethrin, it will part the Red Sea of Black flies while hiking down the trail.

@Suluk46 Well I see you guys got the head nets at BPL nice to be able to see out of when wearing them love mine

Killarney and Heavens Gate are very alike...up and down, up and down over the granite. This trail is not known by many at all, I only found out about it last year. You'll have a tough time finding info on it other than on my website but if you are going to hike it, drop me an email and I'll give you the info I have.
Well at least you still had fun even with the unforeseen obstacles. Damn the fly's were thick.

We always have fun regardless of how the trip goes. I love the stories that come out of these great trips. As for the bugs, it got real bad. I thought they were going to pick me up and carry me away!

Nice!! Sometimes those "unforeseen consequences" result in some of the best adventures, eh! Wicked about of bugs... that's just crazy.

LOL. Yep, if everything went smoothly, these videos would be boring! :) My legs are still scarred from the bites, it'll be a while before they are gone completely.
