Hello from Mount Rainier National Park in Washington. This looks like I'm in a green
screen. We're currently in the middle of a nine and a half mile hike. We're on the Burroughs
mountain trail and we're gonna take a little detour to see the wildflowers. We met this guy
who told us that if we take a little two mile detour we can see the whole wildflower field.
Also fun fact, this guy also shared with us this is the tallest
glaciated volcano in the lower 48 states. That was pretty cool.
We're officially heading back.
Oh my god he's so cute. Good morning from Forks, Washington. We are right outside of Olympic
National Park. Today we're gonna be hiking it. I'm so excited. We're gonna do the rainforest
and also a more like mountain-y type of hike. Colin and Arcee are off picking berries.
I just cleaned and shaved my armpits which felt so good.
Hello from the Ho Rainforest in Olympic National Park. Just like a lifestyle ad.
Now Arcee's right there. Do you want to tell the vlog what you're working on?
I'm on the rotisserie station. First I set up a fire.
They used to rip every chunk of meat left on the rotisserie off and we're throwing it into the
scramble. How's it going? This is what we got so far. Nice. Arcee you want to tell the vlog what
you're working on? Yeah I'm boiling up some potatoes and kind of like sauteing some carrots
and onions right now. Nice. I'm gonna put some eggs in there and some chicken. Yep.
Chicken has been out of this. Okay so it's lost its aesthetic but it's gained the taste. Yes.
We don't even have the eggs in there yet. Oh wait we do. We do. Oh my god I can't see them.
How did you think we're gonna add eggs? Just wait till we add the 13 eggs.
Hiking Chief Peak Trail in British Columbia an hour north of Vancouver. We took a little
pit stop in Vancouver. Okay guys so this is where the path, they can't even see the rope in the
video, this is where the path continues. You got it. It's the thinnest rope ever.
Only one way to find out. Arcee is spider-man. Dude it's too high. Excuses. Actually what do you
think it's here for? I don't know. Or maybe maybe it is to lapel up but you like take it off the
tree. Yeah. Oh yeah okay do that. So you can still do that with no hands though. This? Yeah.
I'm a little breather but look how insane this is. I bet the video won't even do it justice.
Fun times. Fun times. It's Tuesday July 23rd. We're hiking Garibaldi Lake. We just made it
to the lake and chilled here for a sec and now we're gonna go up to the Panorama Ridge which
is another seven kilometers which is about four and a half miles. Longest hike yet. What is it?
Over 19 miles. Yeah. Oh my god. Over 19 miles. Is that 30 kilometers?
This is insane. This might be my favorite park we've been to. It's gorgeous and we're not even
halfway done and the craziest thing is this is a provincial park which is like kind of like the
equivalent to our state parks. We have what a 5k left? Yep like 4.9 now. 4.9 kilometers
until we reach the top. I'd say this so far has been my favorite
park and it was free admission which is crazy. Anyways let's go.
You can stop. Oh. We somehow have to get all the way up there. Wish me luck.
Panorama Ridge. Panorama Ridge. We've gone what? Nine miles would you say? Probably 10.
We're gonna head back. What do you think it'll take us? Like four hours? I think if we're fast
we can do it in three. Yeah it's gonna kind of jog down. Uh this is the most insane view I've
ever seen in my entire life. Same. Hike I've done so far and this is free. But yeah we just sat down
and ate our lunch with the most craziest lunch view ever and now we're gonna hang out for a
It is really cold up here. The wind is really cold. And we're gonna head back down. Yep.
We just sled down on our bare asses all the way from up there.
Wait. Cut to Arcee's ass cheek babe. Oh it's actually really bad. Yep. I feel like I'm like
wearing leggings right now because I can't feel my legs. It went so much faster than I was
expecting. Thank god I chose to wear my tight shorts today. Guys your blood is on that ice
Oh oh ---- oh ---- oh ---- oh ----
A bit of an update time. I'm in Glacier National Park in Montana which is insane because that was
not the original plan. I was supposed to fly home out of Calgary before they came here and
they were supposed to come here next week. So basically we had plans to go to North Cascades.
We kind of went there but we couldn't do the hike we wanted to do because the road was closed
because of the wildfires and then we headed up to Banff and then we were also supposed to see
Jasper in Canada. Jasper has been evacuated because of the wildfires there so that was a no
and then we're like okay we'll try Banff. We drove through yesterday I think it was and the smoke was
absolutely nothing else I've ever seen. It was literally I think it was like seven o'clock and
the sun doesn't set here until like 10 it doesn't get dark until nine and it was dark out and this
it was I can't it doesn't even the videos don't do it justice it looked it was so scary I felt
like I was driving into a fire and we were still miles and miles out from the actual fires. So we
obviously didn't want to sleep outside in that because that's not good for you so we ended up
getting a Airbnb last minute last night which was honestly so nice because I was able to shower. I
showered for like 40 minutes, shaved everything, showered again this morning and then we made our
way to Montana and here we are. I decided I wanted to get in because I mean just like look at the
water it's absolutely insane. It is a little bit chilly out but I was like **** it I want to
so I stripped and I got in. Coldest water I think I've ever swam in because it's coming directly
from the snow melts I'm pretty sure at the top of the mountains but so clean so fresh so
exhilarating felt amazing so I'm so glad I did that. Colin's fishing somewhere down there along
the river bank I'm gonna go find him and then I think we're gonna make dinner soon and head to
our campsite and I'm so so happy so happy I can't believe this is my life. This is also your
sign that or reminder I guess that mindset is literally everything because all three of us
could so easily right now be complaining and upset and bummed out about the canceled
trips or like parks I guess but instead we're making the most of it and we're like this is
so sick because now we have more time in glacier. I thought you were a bear. What? I thought you were
a bear. Okay I'm gonna head back now because I'm cold I'm gonna put my sweatpants on. Three minutes.
Okay I'm also on dinner duties tonight so that should be fun.
Want to say it? No you don't have to. We have Crocs, we have Gymshark shorts,
we have underwear that's stained heavily with wet blood, we have a bear spray canister
and then we have my tucked in because I need my bear spray ready sponsored fishing
hoodie and then we have this really high quality hiking backpack I got for $699.99
and I just for double protection I did this. Oh and the hat is from a store in Syracuse.
I'm at Avalanche Lake in Glacier National Park and it's absolutely beautiful. I've just been
reading this book, A Short History of Nearly Everything. It's a lot of astronomy and physics
so far it's very interesting. It's RC's, I stole it from the car. It's been fishing
and now we're gonna go eat our sandwiches that we made earlier.
