Nice trail and nice choice in camping spots. I added this to my list for my and my niece to tackle. There are a lot, and I mean a lot, of beautiful trails in PA. Longer ones and shorter ones. Harder and easier ones. A very diverse selection.
Hey Buckley, you are right, in that direction that hill is a real buttkicker. The payoff is that your fairly fresh to enjoy the scenery and the views on the way to the overlook!
You always, and I mean always, have the very best music selections….. great music taste. I like the sounds of that super music group!!! FYI, Swag and I are finalizing plans for a September BWCA canoe trip in the event you find yourself out this way.
Wow what a beautiful place🥰👌. These trails look amazing, so lush and green, and your camping pitch was perfect 😊 🏕👍. We loved the music choices too, Pete was particularly impressed by hunger strike, originally by temple of the dog, nice touch😊👌. Keep the videos of your adventures coming, we always enjoy watching. Shell and Pete😊👍
My wife's neck of the woods. I haven't hiked there. Looks beautiful, reminiscent of the Appalachian Trail in Vermont. I did hike a few miles on the Laurel Highlands trail in the area where you were. Lots of deep woods. Nice drone footage, mixing the overhead views with a low altitude flyover. Nice!👍
Stellar hike and video. Go East, young Man. People do not realize that area is replicated all over the Northeast. Pennsylvania, New York, all of New England country. Hit up eastern New York, Vermont area. Could even show you around possibly. Edit: cool tunes.
@@BackpackingwithBuckley I’m from NY. I live near the border with Vermont.. ~ 50 miles Northeast of Albany… in between the Adirondacks of NY and the Green Mountains of Vermont.
HEY! You're starting to get in my neighborhood! So Awesome!! There are a TON of spots to go hiking, camping, paddling all over PA. and I have to get there myself to hit so many I haven't got to yet.
@@BackpackingwithBuckley look at Pine Creek gorge! The rim trail is awesome from what I hear! I plan on bike camping the rail trail soon and paddle camp the river but the hiking is stupendous too!
That was fun ... Great place and campsite. Do you miss south Dakota? Great thought on the superband too 😂. Loving the mossy rocks and ferns Mountain house yeah baby.
If you want a fern covered ground, then you should definitely hike the Morrison Hiking Trail! Also, you are a bit off on the North Country Trail mileage. The NCT is 4,800 miles in length. The NCT is the longest trail in the National Scenic Trail System.
Welcome to my backyard lol was surprised to see you were here. Looks like you missed the south loop, which means you missed half of the best spots! Minister Creek is usually our 1st hike every year (Easter) and a summer group hang at the mouth of the creek.
Disneyland for campsites! 😂🤣 So you didn't continue to North Dakota? 😁 Your camp sure looked great. Great fire as well! Pepper steak at camp? All the best! Kaat
You were effectively in my backyard! Pa has a tremendous amount of forests and backpacking trails. With this trip, you have entered the realm of all of the other backpacking UA-camrs. congratulations! 🤣🤣🤣 If you are interested in the more out of the way areas with lower backpacker impact, I'm willing to share. Minister Creek is a great beginner trail. In the winter time, with snow on the ground, it becomes a truly magical snowshoe play area.
I might have to hit up that trail. A buddy of mime lives just south of Erie PA and I go visit every now and then. I've done Oil Creek state park (Gerard Trail) I think is the name . Its a pretty good longer loop if you're looking for something else out that way. Its a legit test too. EDIT: I meant to ask you about the music. If someone else covers the original artist is that legit to use in the vids? The reason I ask is when I do my CT section this year I'm going to put out a video and want to use a buddy's music, originals and covers. He past several years ago but was so awesome. UA-cam him you'll probably love his music. Tom Hagley My firends and Cocaine & Whiskey are a couple of many of his originals.... Please don't use it though until I do 🙂. Leaving for the CT Aug 27th for 2 weeks. Hoping to get between 120-140 miles, but we'll see.
That's awesome Alex! When you head this direction you should let me know. My condolences on your friend. It'd a wonderful idea to tribute him with his music in a video. I'll check it out and I certainly will not use it. My music sometimes gets a copyright claim (as opposed to a strike). The claim just means I can't monetize the video but there is no risk to my channel. Stay in touch man and thanks for sharing!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley That's Awesome. I certainly won't be monetized. For sure man, maybe we can get out on a hike or camp together. Not sure if you remember a ways back when I was kidding around about those elitist Shill's.. That's me if you want to change your mind. LOL
BTW a lot of Tom's songs were recorded live by cell phones so keep that in mind. Here's one that was actually recorded in a studio. It was one of his later one not long before he passed. Just trying to share some great music since I know you are a music lover. ua-cam.com/video/tFvCioCuAzU/v-deo.html
Buckley. I need to know what water bottle holder you have there near your right shoulder! I've been trying to find a good one. Edit: NEVERMIND! You're using the same one I had just been looking up! Chicken tramper water bottle holder. PS. Geezus H that place is awesome looking. I just tore a pair of slacks.
Sara Blue giving Mt.House 4 stars 😳😳
Beautiful area and campsite. Cool video and I miss you two
Miss you too buddy! We need to plan something soon!
Beautiful Tim and Sarah!
Thanks Tammy! So excited to see the cabin coming along!
Nice trail and nice choice in camping spots. I added this to my list for my and my niece to tackle. There are a lot, and I mean a lot, of beautiful trails in PA. Longer ones and shorter ones. Harder and easier ones. A very diverse selection.
I'm very excited. Your LHT videos got me wanting to do that too!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley I think it is relatively close to where you were on this trip!
Looks like a great trail. Kind of like the slot canyons of Utah with moss! Fun times. Great trip. Have a great day, Tim. Take care.
Thanks Steve!! Looking forward to everyone's Utah videos!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley Thanks it was a great trip. I barely made it with my feet this time. The trail beat the crap out of me this time.
Fantastic views! Love these expansive areas where you don't see a sight of civilization! Perfect! Bruce and Otis
The fewer humans the better! It was beautiful!
Beautiful place!
It was a really nice surprise. Thanks for watching friends!
Hey little blue! So cool to see you on the green tunnel side of the country lol. Enjoyed it man!
LMAO that fart
Thanks buddy! It's a nice change of pace!
Looks like a great time.
It was spectacular!
Awesome trail for a hike. Great views
Thanks Tim! It was pretty!
Beautiful views
It was a nice surprise! Pretty place for sure!
Beautiful trail and nice choice on camp I love hiking into places cutting wood and leaving it as a surprise!!!
It's a good way to pay it forward. Loved it!
Great looking trail. Doesn’t look like a bad campsite anywhere. All near the water.
It is an amazing place. What I would call a "luxury loop". 🙂
Work has consumed me this month but watching this video got me to pack my backpack and will hit the trails this weekend ✌🏽
Yes!! Im so pumped that you're getting out!
Great drone footage and walkthrough this loop. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for watching and nice connecting with you!
Great video and beautiful places! Thank you for taking us with you on so a beautiful trip.😄
Thanks so much!! Knife video coming soon! 🤣
@@BackpackingwithBuckley 😍🥰😘
Hey Buckley, you are right, in that direction that hill is a real buttkicker. The payoff is that your fairly fresh to enjoy the scenery and the views on the way to the overlook!
This trail was a gem. Unexpected awesomeness but we did take the right route!
Love slot canyons! Looks like an awesome site- especially the chairs!
It was a great surprise!!
You always, and I mean always, have the very best music selections….. great music taste. I like the sounds of that super music group!!! FYI, Swag and I are finalizing plans for a September BWCA canoe trip in the event you find yourself out this way.
Thanks Pete! I miss my Minnesota boys! I dont know if September is in the cards for me but I did get a PowerBall ticket yesterday!
That's definitely Awesome trial to hike bro. Great adventures out there.
Thanks friend!
I loved your drone shots at 1:00
Thanks bud! Once in a while I get some good ones! 😀
Great video and choice of gear. Pennsylvania looks beautiful! 🙌
Thanks Scott! The tent has become our favorite. I also carry the lightweight quilt a LOT. Awesome stuff.
This was an amazing video. You never disappoint. Thank you for sharing this with us
Awww.....thanks Tressa! Really appreciate your kindness.
Loved this brother!
Thanks buddy!!
Welcome to PAradise!
Thanks bud!! Are you a PA guy too?
@@BackpackingwithBuckley, not originally from PA, but it’s been my home for the last 20 years.
@@kevind5396 how far from Youngstown are you?
@@BackpackingwithBuckley probably 3 hours at least. I’m on the other side of PA.
stunning scenery Tim that place is a gem. Great location for a camp as well. a pleasure as always man always enjoy your videos.
Thanks buddy! It's I nice spot for sure!
Awesome trail brother!! Little surprised there was no hammock.
Thanks for the video
I like to mix it up on occasion and I actually love that tent design and weight. Thanks for watching friend.
So beautiful place. Big like for you hiking. Greeting from Thailand.
Thank you!
I knew PA had some pretty places, but I have to say that would have surpassed all my expectations.
Me too my friend. I was glad to not be disappointed!
Wow what a beautiful place🥰👌. These trails look amazing, so lush and green, and your camping pitch was perfect 😊 🏕👍. We loved the music choices too, Pete was particularly impressed by hunger strike, originally by temple of the dog, nice touch😊👌. Keep the videos of your adventures coming, we always enjoy watching. Shell and Pete😊👍
Oh....im very aware of Temple of the Dog. Superband!! Glad you enjoyed friends!
Gotta check that one out now. Check out Oil Creek too, for a shorter hike if you're still in the area.
I'll definitely check it out! Appreciate it!
Mmm chicken of the woods!!!
We saw a lot of that!
Yeah, Minister Creek valley is full of it
My wife's neck of the woods. I haven't hiked there. Looks beautiful, reminiscent of the Appalachian Trail in Vermont. I did hike a few miles on the Laurel Highlands trail in the area where you were. Lots of deep woods.

Thanks Daniel! I want to hit the LHT soon too. We are pondering a thru hike of it hopefully this fall.
Back on trail man, shit! Is that a IBTAT reference? I like the how you slipped in the pipe too.
Indeed it is! I love IBTAT. He and I have a lot in common in some respects. He's an enviable photographer too!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley
IB Tat fan here, too.
Stellar hike and video.
Go East, young Man. People do not realize that area is replicated all over the Northeast. Pennsylvania, New York, all of New England country. Hit up eastern New York, Vermont area. Could even show you around possibly.
Edit: cool tunes.
I'd love to, and plan to, hit up as many places out here as possible! Where you from again Mark?

Awesome! Thanks!
Awesome trail Tim, enjoyed this mate. Strange seeing you without your hammock. You look well to 👌. Atb dai
Thanks Dai! Gotta mix it up once in a while!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley totally agree bud 👍
That was fun ... Great place and campsite. Do you miss south Dakota? Great thought on the superband too 😂. Loving the mossy rocks and ferns Mountain house yeah baby.
I miss some parts of South Dakota! It's fun to explore new worlds for sure though!
That looked awesome! Hope it wasn't as hot as it has been elsewhere in the country lately!
It was a perfect day at about 75 degrees. We got lucky...
If you want a fern covered ground, then you should definitely hike the Morrison Hiking Trail!
Also, you are a bit off on the North Country Trail mileage. The NCT is 4,800 miles in length. The NCT is the longest trail in the National Scenic Trail System.
Holy crap! I was off! Thanks for the correction bud! I'll have to check out that Morrison Trail. Thanks!
Sarah knows what's up. That Italian Pepper Steak is good shit. Hard to find around here but good shit.
But never speak of that super band idea again.
She did hit it on that one. I was so skeptical that it sat in the bin trip after trip. I was wrong. 😀
Looks beautiful! Not that far from me…I should get down that way! If you ever want to hit up the Adirondacks or Catskills let me know!
Will do!! I'd love to get out that way too!
@@BackpackingwithBuckley it’s very beautiful!

Keep me posted on the group hang! We know we missed a lot but we will be back!
welcome to the mossy rock cities of Western PA
Thank you my friend!
Disneyland for campsites! 😂🤣 So you didn't continue to North Dakota? 😁
Your camp sure looked great. Great fire as well!
Pepper steak at camp?
All the best! Kaat

Minister Creek is a great beginner trail. In the winter time, with snow on the ground, it becomes a truly magical snowshoe play area.
I'd love some ideas on other places out here! I'm also excited to do some winter camping out here.
Xavier Rudd at 8.50??
I think so!
Por aya hay osos no
There were bear signs at the trail heads so there must be a few?
Did you hang your food or did you use a bear canister?
Hung my food. There are lots of Black Bears there but I didn't see any on this trip.
FIRST
😘
@@BackpackingwithBuckley love the slots...canyons that is. Watch out with the overgrown areas out there. Watch out for ticks!
