First solo, good stuff! Super nice place, that late is as pretty as a picture! I like getting to camp just on dark. Looked like a VERY successful first solo to me, well done! Well done on the video editing too, that was really good!

Fun video. I like the cuts between the photos and the video. The Foothills is a great trail. I'll be thru hiking it solo this weekend. I'll be looking forward to your thru hike.
In the video on the first day that you come to a campsite and ask where you might get your water: coming from Pinnacle Mtn, just before you get to that site, there is a small spring that crosses the trail. If you go another 1/4 mile down the trail (I'm sure you saw it), there is a creek flowing over the rocks and off the cliff just past the rock outcrop.
Looks like a pretty darn nice trip. Congrats on your solo! Love a little solo hiking myself.

Would love to be out there in the mountains.
Life looks better from a BIAS hammock.
That is actually where I got my water. There is also a small camp site by that creek. I got a video of it flowing over the rocks but it didn't do it justice. Plus you have to leave some surprises. It looked like there were 3 other small creeks that would run when we are getting rain, but they were dry this time.
Good luck with your thru hike.
Thank you for all the comments. I am using my hiking videos to dabble in Adobe premier. I need some knowledge for work and figured it would be easier to learn by working on something I enjoy.
Next is After EffectsLynda.com here I come.
Another note. If it looks like leaves were kicked onto the scrape, it was a rival buck usually messing with the man mojo![]()
That was a great video. Looked like an excellent solo hike.
I just hiked up to the overlook on Pinnacle Mountain yesterday.
I've attached a picture of the view you couldn't see from "the big rock".
It's worth a trip back there IMO.
Thanks for sharing.
