    Nice looking hike! Great to see Tim and Nichole!
    Thanks for the recreate responsibly shout out. Trashy people are a peeve of mine. Aggravates me to no end.✌️

      Thank you. I agree. Drives me crazy to get to a spot and people have left trash everywhere.

    Chris is the Pond Whisperer.
    Leaving trash at a campsite is just pure laziness. Cool video Brian and have fun on your section hike on the AT.

      Thanks Jason. I agree, pure laziness and lack of respect for others and the outdoors.

      Thanks. The trash was a total bummer and you never know what gadgets Chris will have.

    Chris should go by the trail name Inspector Gadget!!! DANG! I feel ya on the trash 😪 The PMT Birch knob section goes through the Jefferson National Forest and private land. The hike down to Elkhorn City is COVERED in trash! Samuel stumbled upon a fresh unopened beer last weekend so that was kinda nice...🤦‍♂️

    I'll never understand why people can't pack out what they pack in. It literally weighs less lol great video and looks like a great time with your buddy. Best of luck on your AT section hike.

      Thanks Tonya. I agree, you packed it in when it was at its heaviest and now you just leave it for someone else to take care of. The last two times I have been to the Deam there has been trash left at the campsite.

    Oh yes the Green Whatevertheyare's ARE indeed very pretty! That timelapse was cool! I think a proper timelapse needs sparse clouds flowing in the background! Yes the OM 5 floats on me too sometimes! So irritating! I think some company should be able to do better. Oh ya btw I got my Nemo back! It was about a 3 week turn-around time!

    • @CarlsonAdventures

      Thanks Mark. I’m glad they took care of the tensor for you. The OM5 is great but sometimes like you said it gets a mind of its own.

    Nice little trip. When I went to the deam last year, there was a tore bag of garbage. 13 gal bag full. I took some garbage back with me, but only had a little grocery bag. If ya bring it in, you can bring it out

    • @CarlsonAdventures
      @CarlsonAdventures  Рік тому +1

      Absolutely. I’m going to start carrying a bag with me just for that reason.

    A hammock camper going back to ground?!?! By choice?!?! The world just keeps getting crazier and crazier....
    I'm looking forward to following your upcoming thru-hike though. I've been eyeing the Arc packs and trying to determine if the Arc Blast has enough room for winter camping with a hammock setup for 4-6 days or if I should just go with the larger Arc Haul. My gear seems pretty comparable to yours (minus the tent and sleeping pad of course) so I'll be really interested in how it goes for you on the longer treks with lots of food to carry.
    Good luck!

    • @CarlsonAdventures

      Crazy I know! I have had the arc blast for a few years now have had no problem carrying my winter hammock set up and 4 days of food.

    Already have trash bags in the backpack just in case I run across that bullshit too. Wanted to say good luck on that section hike Carlson😅🎒

    When are you starting ATP quest ? WE are looking forward to your videos.

    Looks like a fun time. Not sure if I missed it in another video, but out of curiosity, why did you choose to take a tent over the hammock for your upcoming section hike?

    • @CarlsonAdventures
      @CarlsonAdventures  Рік тому +1

      I decided to take a tent because it seemed to be easier to get a spot on the AT and I like that I can get in and sort my stuff out in the tent during bad weather.

    Wait? I like the walk out! Enjoyed it, wishing I could have attended. Pancakes were hilarious 😂

    I want to pass a thought by you. Why not carry a fly tarp and hang them over these single wall tents everyone uses? Just curious. Fun time!

    Can't believe campers still leaving cans in the fire pit. I saw all that trash in Chris' video.
