Great shot of Tala laying next to a tree, with the Muley in the background looking around the tree... Heck - they're ALL great photos man...
    Again, congrats to you!! and Tala!!

    Thanks man. It sure was great to see the kitty and hopefully it's not the last time.

    Fronkey, you made me add this walk to my bucket list! Such wonderful photos, I'm seriously jealous. Were you and Mumbles able to get together? Ed's a good friend! Please give Tala a skritch from us here in the Cascades?

    That cougar video, /shudder... Such an efficient animal...

    I'm really glad you made it through without any scratches, but I was really alarmed when you turned your back to the cat towards the end. It wouldn't have been unreasonable for him to circle back and follow you to camp that evening. Thankfully, he must have decided you weren't an easy meal.

    The rest of the pictures are amazing, great trip.

    Looks amazing, can't wait to see the video. I shamefully have never heard of this trail. Definitely on the to do list.

    Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead but I've just remembered that I was scammed out of money by Fronkey's kickstarter for this trip as were a lot of other people. Did anyone get in touch with him or find out his reasons for not completing his end of the kickstarter?

    No, Fronkey has not returned any emails or attempts at contact. I believe it is what it is unfortunately.

    Thanks for the answer. He didn't seem like the sort of person to rip off so many people but you never can tell. He seems to have disappeared from everywhere and turned off commenting on his youtube channels. He can keep the money but an apology would've been nice or maybe a reason.

    He did come to HangCon 2016 in January which was after the big hubbub, but his last post was Dec 2016.
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you

    Wow! I was completely unaware of this. I wouldn't have pinned Fronkey as a scammer.
