    VIDEO:Sipsey Wilderness Backpacking Trip March 14-16, 2016



    We go out to Sipsey Wilderness for a 3 day/2 night backpacking trip! I try to give detailed information of the trails we hiked with my GoPro. Enjoy!

    Also, go check out Teddy Bear's GoPro video from our trip!

    Loved seeing what I've watched so far. We did the Thompson to Ship Rock thing just last month. Soon as I get done working later today I'll watch the rest. Looks like you guys had some muddy fun so far. Many thanks for the video.

    Man the water was up. I've been down 206-209 a few times and all of those crossings you guys dealt with were trickles or nonexistent and the trails have clearly been altered after the flooding. The last time out my oldest daughter and I crashed at that exact campsite. I'm taking a trip with both of my girls out in April. Going for the big tree from Thompson. Nice video, thanks.

    Great video. Climbing out of the canyon from Big Tree sure is rough on my old legs. Could have been the 25 lb. Pack. Watching your video makes me want to get out to The Sipsey. Heard we will get a lot of rain tomorrow and tomorrow night!! Waterfalls will be looking and sounding good.
