    Been watching your videos for years, this is the best one so far! She will NEVER forget this trip. She’s a rockstar for only being 7, you sir have got yourself a new hiking partner. Good luck getting out and leaving her home after this 😂 The random hug summed up all that you mean to her and how much this trip will stay with you both, you’re a great dad! This would be a great direction for your channel in the future in addition to your usual content I think. Just make sure to stay in shape, a few short years and that kid will be smokin you on the climbs 😝

    Awesome video! I look forward to seeing some more of these kind of videos. My daughter Citori is now 18 years old. She was over this past weekend. When I mentioned I would like to go camp out she almost did not take to to respond before starting packing. She did not care where. We stayed at a local horse camp out in the middle of he Davy Crockett National Forest. Oil pump jacks could be heard a mile away. A few folks come very early in the morning with horse trailers to ride the horse trails. The temp was down to 61 F for the night. Oh man what a great time we had to just get out, cook out, sleep out in God's great outdoors. Looking forward to seeing a video of all of you our for a trip soon.... yeap.. the little one too.

    Nice Job Frozen! Is it your normal video -no, but that’s fine. Life happens, we grow, and you are being a great step Dad. Those lone peaks don’t have much cushioning. Scarlet might need a more substantial insert to cushion the rocks. Loved seeing her smiles! I wish I could have gotten my girls to go camping with me like that. Scarlett looked like a fairy princess perched inside of the royal purple hammock strung between the trees. 🧝‍♀️

    Thank God, Scarlet eats well. Foods power her to hike strong. And no food waste to carry out.
    She gives you a hug too. Sweet. Precious. Enjoy your fatherhood with two kids.

    I don't know how I missed this one when it first came out but, thankfully, it came up in my suggested videos today. I can't believe you subjected that poor child to Dobbins Grade. In my two visits to the Sods, I hiked PAST it. When in my research about the place, I saw Bryce Newbold up to his knees in mud, I knew it wasn't a place I cared to explore. Kudos to you for taking Scarlett on such an adventure. Her closing statement to find time to go on your own adventure was just too precious. Hope to see you, or both of you, on the trail someday.

I'm trying to get up to 10 miles myself (52 years old / overweight / bad knee) so I'm jealous. I always say, when camping with kids or ladies, make it fun and comfortable and you did both, bravo. I honestly smiled the whole way thru, both of you had big grins at the end! And congrats on the baby, hope your wife is doing well
