Washington Cascades outside of Index, WA. Two hikes nearby one another. Both roughly 3 miles roundtrip and both approximately 800 feet of elevation gain.

Ah, Wisconsin. I went there quite often when I lived in Chicago. Hiking, climbing and cross-country skiing. In and around Devils Lake and, was it Holy Hill (where I led a eventful backpack raided by the cops!!!!)Looks like fun and a lot of work! The osmo action camera definitely works well on hikes! I was recently on a hike about a week ago when I walked 5 miles around a lake in Wisconsin but it was easier since there wasn’t much altitude change.
I’ve been to holy hill before for a catholic trip. It was cool seeing the big, old churches but other than that I hated sitting in a big tent for 2 hours while they talked about Christian stuff. Got boring fast.Ah, Wisconsin. I went there quite often when I lived in Chicago. Hiking, climbing and cross-country skiing.

As the raspy breathing attests - I'm getting old!
We only camped, with their permission, on their property for a two day backpack. But the local police did not believe me. In was an interesting 4am awaking to a knock on a fabric tent!!!! "Everybody out!!" It was cold and were we in underware!!! It is still memorable and it was many, many years ago. (g) I think we were hiking the newly created Ice Age Trail - Holy Hill is a glacial kame.I’ve been to holy hill before for a catholic trip.

were you holding it or was it strapped to you?Washington Cascades outside of Index, WA. Two hikes nearby one another. Both roughly 3 miles roundtrip and both approximately 800 feet of elevation gain.

It was '"lanyarded" to me! (g) Hand held about a foot out from my neck/body. It hangs from my neck and is enclosed in a microfiber bag and protected by a lens cap. I remove those to film. I hike with poles and had one pole in my left hand and the camera in my right. I was dragging the right pole and at about 33 seconds, you can see where the right pole gets caught between two rocks and I bobble a bit untangling it (g) Since I've been to the lookout before, I knew I wanted to capture the last few seconds approaching the first view and emerging from the woods. Still I was not seeking video perfection - just capturing my unsteady gait and the tower. Originally I posted the original sound track of my ragged breathing but re-edited, removed the breathing and substituted the music track (g)were you holding it or was it strapped to you?
