YouTube Video VVVUa3FCTlc2TEU4TDBleGw0V1FtQnpRLmFRVUd6cEx1eW8w Jason’s foolish mistake triggers a full-blown rescue mission on the remote Lost Coast Trail in Northern California—a completely unnecessary rescue mission. This egregious error activates the US Coast Guard and California Emergency Services. The group of backpackers is fully unaware of the chaos occurring off trail until a helicopter starts following their every move. Watch as Jason makes an utter fool of himself and engross yourself in the beauty of the beloved beach hike known as the Lost Coast Trail. The Lost Coast Trail is a gorgeous 25 mile backpacking hike through the King Range National Conservation Area. Known for its beauty, sneaker waves, highly variable tides, black sand beaches, river crossings, inclement weather, and cliff sides. Jason, five other friends, and a puppy hiked it in March 2024. ____________________ Questions About the inReach Mishap: 1) What model inReach were you using? It was an early model from before Garmin acquired DeLorme. More than a decade old. 2) How did you trigger an SOS by accident? The switch that locked the SOS button on this early inReach model was fiddly. It could appear to be locked when it was not. Sometimes the switch easily clicked into place, other times it required a lot more force than seemed necessary. The unit was turned off. Jason was not aware it could still be activated when off if the SOS button was depressed for an extended period of time. 3) Why was the inReach in your pack? The clip that attaches it to a backpack strap had recently broken off. It still had a small carabiner on a lanyard for attaching to a pack. Unfortunately, it would bounce around annoyingly without the clip holding it in place. Jason was also worried it may snag on something and be unexpectedly lost without the clip holding it steady and working as a second (redundant) attachment point. Despite all of this, you can see Jason wearing the floppy inReach on his pack after the SOS mishap. He didn’t dare accidentally trigger another unneeded rescue. 4) Did you get charged for the rescue? Thankfully, no. California does not want to discourage needed rescues by causing people to second guess requesting one. Jason still feels terrible and feels owes a debt to all of the rescue services and other tax payers—and his friends and family. Emergency services and Garmin handled the situation expertly as everyone freaked out in the front country attested to him later. 5) Do I need to worry about this problem with my inReach? Hopefully not. Newer models have addressed this issue and other issues. Jason replaced this older inReach with a newer inReach Mini and hopes to never repeat this sort of mistake. 6) How could you confuse the notification noise for a bird tweet? Because it was inside the pack, the sound was muffled and distorted and sounded like it was coming from the wooded areas instead of inside the backpack. The first time Jason heard it was right as other hikers (walking the opposite direction) passed by—carrying their own inReach. ____________________ 0:00 Intro 0:58 About the Lost Coast Trail 1:09 Hike Begins 1:44 First Omens of Trouble 2:25 Lighthouse to Cliffside 3:30 The Helicopter Appears 4:02 Check Your inReach! 4:28 SOS in Progress 4:59 I Am So Stupid! 5:08 More Beach Hiking 5:29 Challenges and Dangers of the Trail 6:16 Puppy Paws Aren’t Doing Well 6:33 Day Two Hiking 7:21 Day Three Hiking 9:02 Problems With Last Night’s Campsite 9:50 The Final Day 10:42 Trail’s End, Reunion, and Aftermath 11:18 Slideshow 11:40 Goodbye _______________ G.O.

Watch Past Years: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdP1S0sP2M5hWgkXFy84ZkVagLwOBysnt&si=UJDsRbYPu2nYApxH In 2010, the year the original HD GoPro was released, I started making annual compilations of each year's adventures. Sixteen years later, I am still cutting these annual videos together—though the camera gear has changed. 2025 marks the first time there is no footage from the USA. There are shots instead from Morocco, Germany, Italy, Greece, and Spain (where Erika and I now live). Enjoy our year of celebrations, canyons, via ferrata, caves, ruins, hikes, beaches, cathedrals, farm animals, and fireworks. _______________ G.O.

Outside 2025 - Year Sixteen

Atajate is a pueblo blanco located in a particularly gorgeous and riparian area in the mountains of Málaga (Southern Spain). On the edge of town is a stunning and somewhat challenging via ferrata route. It is a mix of verticals, traverses, overhangs, and a particularly long Tibetan bridge. Come enjoy the spectacular views from the safety of your computer screen. In December of 2024, Jason attempted a 60 mile backpacking route through the mountains of Southern Spain—alone. It began in the town of Ronda and ended outside of Estepona. 16 via ferrata routes intersected with his 4 day hike—he climbed 10 of them. This video features 1 of those routes.

Ending My Day With Another Via Ferrata

Right along the edge of the town of Montejaque sits a moderately strenuous K4 via ferrata. It features steep climbs, several overhangs, an impressive 72m (236 ft) zipline, and spectacular views of the region. I climbed it at the end of a long day of hiking and after three other via ferrata climbs. It was a rewarding and tiring experience. I definitely recommend getting a running start on the zipline and not wearing a heavy backpack so you don’t struggle through it like I did. Warning - lots of cursing ahead.

Two via ferrata routes sit near each other in the gorgeous mountains above Benadalid in Southern Spain (Málaga, Andalucía).

Presa de los Caballeros are 3 recently created via ferrata routes traversing a dam near the town of Montejaque in Southern Spain. The three VFs vary in difficulty and are linked together by a suspension bridge and a zipline. The area is gorgeous, the climbing is enjoyable, and two of the routes begin in a cave.

I Explored the West… Then Caused a Rescue Mission

In December of 2024, Jason attempted a 60 mile backpacking route through the mountains of Southern Spain—alone. It would start in beautiful Ronda, in the mountains of Southern Spain—and end at Estepona along the Mediterranean coast. He also hoped to climb all 16 via ferratas along the way. With winter approaching, limited time, and minimal gear, it would be a challenge. Backpacking in Spain is certainly different from in the US. Follow along as Jason encounters lost trails, never-ending private land, barb wire fences, wild pigs, high speed and low speed ziplines, lots of extraplomo, a lonely sheep, unexpected holidays, interesting camp spots, gorgeous locations, and kindness from a stranger.

Wild Pigs, Lost Trails, and a Solo Trek Across Spain

Spending a month on the JMT (John Muir Trail) in 2019 was one of my most beloved experiences. I hiked it later in the season—conditions were perfect, the landscape was spectacular, and the people I met were amazing. When my friend Scott proposed hiking a weeklong section of the trail in 2023, of course I joined in. It would involve hiking in at Duck Pass and out at Piute Pass, two sections of trail I had never visited. The winter had been exceptionally rainy and snowy. We’d be hiking in July, earlier in the season. We knew it would be more challenging. We didn’t realize just how much. Follow Scott, Ryan, and me along the trail as we encounter swollen rivers, snowy passes, waterfall traverses, exceptional beauty, and more. ____________________ 0:00 Intro 1:00 Day 1 - To Barney Lake 1:50 Day 2 - Barney Lake to Lake of the Lone Indian 3:48 Day 3 - Silver Pass to VVR Cutoff 4:34Huge Waterfall Crossing 6:41 Day 4 - VVR Cutofff toSallie Keyes Lake 7:18 Bypassing Bear Creek 7:46 Sketchy Log Crossing 8:25 Selden Pass 9:12 Day 5 - Sallie Keyes Lake to Hutchinson Meadow 10:27 Day 6 - Hutchinson Meadow to North Lake _______________ G.O.

JMT in Extreme Conditions (July 2023)

Have you ever wanted to drive across the entire United States? So did we. We were lucky enough to make it happen in 2016 thanks to a job with a company named TYLT. Come along with Jason and Erika as we drive a little Chevy coupe 13,510 miles across the US passing through 42 states along the way. Not only do we explore the cities and landscapes the US has to offer, but we also meet up with interesting people like filmmakers, photographers, and BASE jumpers. And amongst all of the driving, camping, climbing, canyoneering, and corn mazes—we still make time to create podcasts and manga from our tent. Strap in and enjoy the ride! ____________________ Chapter 1 - Meet Erika and Jason before they embark on a 13,510 mile trip across the U.S. Chapter 2 - Erika and Jason survive their first night on the road. They meet Kat and Craig and their mobile home in Arizona before a day of canyon singing and double rainbows. Chapter 3 - Erika and Jason school us on travel hygiene and tag along with Levi Arnone and his buddies while they throw themselves off of a 300 foot rock. Chapter 4 - Jason and Erika deal with inclement weather before meeting up with physician turned filmmaker Tommy Day. Chapter 5 - Butcher Bird's Michael and Jason cross paths in Michigan while working on two separate projects and Erika haunts a corn maze in Washington. Chapter 6 - Jason and Erika celebrate Halloween in Salem before Jason wallows through 10 miles of mud in North Carolina. All before a gentlemanly shave and cut. Chapter 7 - The final reflective episode of the series. So Mote it Be. ____________________ 0:00 Intro 0:37 Meet Jason 1:03 Meet Erika 1:23 The Plan 2:14 Water Jug Dance 2:22 Night 1: Creepy Campground 3:04 Kat & Craig in Lone Rock 4:03 Grand Canyoneering: Waterholes Canyon 5:39 Surviving the Creepy Campground 5:59 Jason is Annoying 6:08 Hillbilly Bath 6:45 Loneliest Road in America 6:58 BASE jumping with Levi and Friends 8:42 Night 7: Shower Time! 8:59 Trail Names 9:16 Night 15: Wet Weather Woes 9:56 Tommy: Physician Turned Filmmaker 11:49 The Sun Returns! 12:09 Cleanliness is Next to Godliness 12:20 Lost in the Corn Maze 12:49 Exploring Michigan with Filmmaker Michael 14:48 Haunted Cornfield 15:25 Next Great Movie Pitch 15:41 The Unkempt Beard 16:31 Halloween in Salem 17:20 Hiking Watkins Glen 17:27 Tough Mudder 19:22 A Gentlemanly Shave 19:53 Ice Cream Treats 20:06 Night 54: Final Night 20:40 Reflecting Back on the Trip 23:00 Day 55: Final Morning - So Mote It Be 23:45 Final Foolishness 24:02 Outro _______________ G.O.

The frigid waters really soothe your muscles after days of backpacking. It doesn't change the fact that it is ice cold and a shock to your system when you first enter the water though!

Rabbit holes are essentially tunnel like passages that canyoneers may have to pass through to continue descending a canyon route. Sometimes these rabbit holes are in the water course. This one in particular involves rappelling through the rabbit hole while being drenched by flowing water. It's a bit a squeeze. You do not want to get stuck... and you definitely don't want to fall at this spot. 0:28
