Climbing 3 Via Ferratas on 1 Dam

I know, YouTube titles are usually gross exaggerations and clickbait, but this trail really did change my life. It was early in my backpacking career and it tested me in a way I had never been tested before. My life truly can be split into before and after the West Coast Trail. ____________________ In 2010, Jason and Steven Calcote embarked on the week long journey of hiking Vancouver Island’s beloved West Coast Trail. Four days of non-stop rain, swollen rivers, and numerous obstacles would create a seminal event in their outdoor experiences. This is their story of accepting hardship and chasing epiphanies. ____________________ This originally appeared as an audio-only episode of the G.O. Get Outside podcast in 2019. This is an enhanced edition featuring photos and video from the hike. The fellas hiked this trail in 2010 with a malfunctioning point-n-shoot camera and a first generation GoPro HD Hero. That’s right—first generation GoPro—when it had no monitor (no way to see what you were shooting or review it), a clunky plastic case, a really strong fisheye lens, lower resolution hardware, and a confounding user interface. But, it was an amazing camera at the time. Unfortunately, Jason barely knew how to use it. ____________________ 0:00 Intro 1:58 Breakfast With a Bald Eagle! 3:39 My Life Needed to Change 5:55 How We Learned about the WCT 7:00 Why Should We Hike This Thing? 7:33 What is the WCT? 8:21 Time to Go to Canada! 9:07 What Should I Know About the Trail? 9:51 Day 1- Starting the Trail 11:35 Day 2 - The Rain Begins 13:27 Day 3 - Things Do Not Improve 15:30 The Big Decision - Do We Quit? 18:04 Into the Swamp - Bear in Area 19:12 Hypothermia? 19:34 Day 4 - No Rewards Visible 20:24 Swollen River, Sleep of the Dead 21:02 Cable Car to the Rescue 22:09 A Weird Dream Changes Everything 24:51 Day 5 - After The Secrets of the Universe Were Revealed 25:51 Steven Has Really Bad News 26:46 The New Plan - We Have to Get Out of Here 28:42 Day 6 - All or Nothing! 29:25 A Show-stopping Injury?! 31:23 Another New Plan - Race the Clock! 32:15 The Final Stretch, Can We Make it in Time? 32:49 Heartbroken and Defeated 34:05 A New Surprise! 34:55 Leaving the Trail 35:43 Our Final Thoughts on a Great Adventure _______________ G.O.

This Trail Sincerely Changed My Life (Enhanced Podcast)

Located near Mammoth in the Sierra Nevada is a beautiful lesser known technical canyon called Shadow Creek. Fed from the outflow of Shadow Lake, it is full of exciting waterfalls begging to be rappelled. Not very many people are aware that this awesome canyoneering adventure exists just off the John Muir Trail near Agnew Meadows. Here is a little peek at a run from 2021. Shot on GoPro Hero 8. _______________ G.O. Get Outside: Videos and Podcasts about adventure sports, outdoor recreation, and travel—featuring relatable everyday active people. G.O.

Another video from the archives. The Grack-Center is a moderate (5.6) 3 pitch Yosemite classic located on Glacier Point Apron. This video is from May 2015 when my friend Jeff and I climbed it for the first time—back before I knew how to hand jam or crack climb properly at all. Interesting piece of G.O. Podcast history: We climbed this route the day after recording the very first interview for the podcast in Camp 4. A memorable two days for me. _______________ G.O.

More Sierra Adventures: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdP1S0sP2M5jc457FHIu6ST4ZKKNQzR5T&si=G33o3w0qQdbVAIfu September 2016, my friend and I attempt to traverse Matthes Crest in Tuolumne. Known for intense exposure, knife-edge traverses, and fun moderate climbing. Little sleep, a battle with food poisoning the night before, and attempting to retrieve a lost GoPro turned this into a bigger event than expected. This is a short compilation of the surviving footage from that day, shot on Panasonic GX7. A GoPro Session plummeted to the valley below with all of its footage and, despite our best efforts, was never recovered. You can read all about it here: https://www.fourchinnigan.com/blog/?p=961 _____________ I almost called this "Lonely Man in the Mountains" since you never see anyone but Alwin in this video.
