Thankee for sharing Sir Shug. I am always happy for you that you get to spend quality time with Ole Hickery. This past Saturday, I got to take one of my best friends out for his first night in a hammock. It was great to see him enjoy a night in the piney woods. Until the next episode!
Shug you make the . best videos! love me so good ole Blues on a banjo don't get no better than that, and the beautiful flowers, food, and what GORGEOUS mountains !! And such awesome intertament... thanks
Hello Shug, I just wanted to be one of the first to wish you a very happy & healthy 60th birthday on Monday!! May you have many, many more to celebrate in the future and a BIG THANKS for all the education & entertainment you've given us over your time on UA-cam!!
I don't remember the Linville Gorge being so GRAND! I feel ya on getting in trips like these with long time friends. I go twice a year to the same stomping grounds, same buddies. Could use a trip like that right about now. Your videos have helped a bit in the waiting. sleep, bbq, woods walking, car riding, music playing good times...woooobuddy
I enjoyed this 3 part series very much Shug. The breaks with the music was a nice touch. And that's a very cool way to do a trip, spontaneous with good food and road trips to break it up. When I was 21 (in 1981) me and 3 buddies went to Louisiana for 10 days from Chicago. We spent time looking for mushrooms under cow pies in farmer's fields, time at the beach, fishing for catfish, and then went to the French Quarter. We camped the whole time. Those were the days. You mentioned it felt like old times to you too. Damn, I can't wait for a road trip now! :)
Ah the good ol exploding bean can. Reminds me of a boy scout campout we had when we were in our teens, someone threw a can of beans in the fire before we all got in the canoes and headed across the lake. Sounded like a freakin canon going off. No one was in camp when it went off, but the scout masters were quite angry and we ALL had to rake up beans from around the campsite. LOL great times. Thanks for the adventure again Hickery Brothers!
Really nice shug. Beautiful trip. It’s touching to see you and ken are still such good buddies after all the years. The whooper wheel birds acrually sounded like it was saying whooper wheel.. looked like you had some quality times together. Thank you for this video shug, great viewing. Seeing the photos of you guys when you were young was interesting and a little melancholic.
Thank you Hickery Brothers for making my Saturday that much better. You both always make me laugh and have a constant smile for the rest of my day. I see the Maple King got promoted to the Fire Maple King. Thanks again and God bless you both and all your loved ones.
“Finale” is the saddest word of a Hickery Brothers adventure. God bless you guys! Keep these reunion trips coming! Maple King seemed brighter this year.🔥 Sorry Karl couldn’t make it. He would have been delighted with good things to eat - the BBQ wrapped in a hush puppy and liver mush/pimento cheese samiches with french fried pataters. Oh, 🎶Happy Birthday to you!🎶🎉and Kent a couple weeks ago!🎂
This was an amazing series. Nobody ever thought a flaming Maple King would ever be caught on camera. I would absolutely love to hear something about those 2 pictures at the end.
The picture of me and Hickery was in NYC. We call it our 80s band picture. The one of him with the fro ...he went to one of those photo shops and rented the outfit.
I love your warm trips because you take nice shots of the flowers. However, in cold weather we get to see yellow man. I guess you can't have everything all at once in life.
love watching you two goofs trekkin through the woods!! I was up at table rock a week ago with my new friend!!! ....(and for the past few years from your suggestion) ... Live in Huntersville NC... keep trekken brothers.. and we will keep laughing with the way yall hike!!
I live there Shug, sorry about the trash. It's embarrassing - Wilson Creek is another nearby treasure that gets its fair share of trash. Some people don't understand what they got till it's gone.
I'd been wondering about the exact makeup of the Maple King's hat, and now you're telling me it can hold fire? The Maple King's powers continue to amaze.
Thankee for this one, Shug. You fellers sure did take lolligaggin' to new heights on this trip. I am amazed, though, that you didn't feel the wrath of the Maple King for allowing THE FRO to have public scrutiny. Surely, that must violate some sworn oath of secrecy.
Man what a fun trip! Except for the liver mush........that might not have sounded like much fun. lol Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing the adventure.
One of your best. I really like how younse enjoy all different styles of camping. I also love going to different bbq places. Thanks again for sharing. P.S. I wear my shug shirt everywhere I can in public places and still didn't encounter another shug fan, but when I do it will be glorious!
Love the videos of NC. Been to some of the same places for BBQ. Really like the hikes, hopefully one day I will be well enough to hike again. Took a bad fall last year and still recovering.... be safe...
shugemery - thanks . Old bodies don’t heal as fast as I use too. Getting there. I actually live in Greensboro- you went to the Stameys on Battleground.
Big fan, keep making these videos for us Shug. In 6 days my first night out in my hammock in Wiclow Mointains. You made me try :) Wish me luck. We will see what i managed to learn from you :) Can't wait..
You boys and fire, hum . . . . Looking a little radial with all that hair Shug. I am betting it is only the outside that has changed, the kid is inside asking "What happened? Not that it will stop me, but what happened!" Thanks for sharing some great views of a future destination, stopping by for a night or two before a visit to my sister in Mooresville and maybe a night or two on the way back home this fall!
shug I love the videos! I've been an avid backpacker for 8 yrs now. MN proud! The years I've spent on the SHT have been great but recently I have realized there has been more and more trash. With your youtube exposure can you do a video on leave no trace? given your platform and your experience of the gorge, I think you could help empower people to leave the trail better than the way they found it. My uncle and I just got off the trail last week (Silver bay - Lutsen) and were pretty disappointed in the amount of trash on the trail. Keep up the great videos and I hope one day we can hike the SKT or any trail and spot no garbage!
If it feels right sometimes then maybe. I have always found the SHT to be really clean for such a popular trail. Sadly...there will always be those that toss their crap around.
Man I just love the gorge, haven't been there in a few years now. Looks like i need to check out your spot though- i've only ever hit Tablerock. Looks like you timed it perfectly to be there in full bloom too!
At Stameys in GSO for Mothers Day Weekend Hot Dog today, now half a mile from Lex #1 as the crow flies watching Shug and the Maple King (the flaming Maple King). Would loved to have walked in to see you two guys here in The Piedmont! Great duo video as always. Come back soon and Cheerwines are on me!
Hahaha fun on the trails! Inspiration... And good on ya mate for cleaning up along the way, you poor bugger, hope pts subsided quickly or would that be pps 😂👍👍✌
Was on Shortoff about 40 years ago when the blueberries were ripe. Nothing like wild blueberries. Ate so many that weekend that let us say, we did not have any problems with #2 if you know what I mean.
I had the pleasure of meeting Hickory at the Johns Rock Hang. I introduced myself as Bush. Judging from his picture, he could have introduced himself as Bush as well! LOL!!
I thought you were close to home before but when I saw Stamey's...woo buddy...that's one of my regular lunch stops! Next time you'll need to try Prissy Polly's in Kernersville (just off of 40)! You'll love the food (eastern and Lexington style) and the old-timey music vibe! Furthermore, the Maple King is a little intimidating but I've heard tell, his bark is worse than his bite.
Hickory!!!! Your not surprised to put plastic bags on you head! Hahahaha that bit cracked me up too much! Another great set of videos! Thank you! WOOOOO BUDDY!
I know this is a little late but the last time you guys were in the gorge ( if I have my weekends correct) I was there the same time but I was on the other side I went in at the falls entrance and started at the Bynum bluff trail, I stopped by the cabin to say hello to everyone and there was a big table set up in the middle of the room covered with free pie from Louise's. I am not sure what all different kinds there were there, I heard some one talking about pineapple but the first one I seen was blackberry and that was as far as I need to go. if I knew you were at shortoff I could have almost hollered across the gorge " Ho Shug free pie " . the next Saturday after watching your video I did have go to go to Stamys for some BBQ, thanks for the idea
Soooooo good..So good! You had a whippoorwill experience....lololo..soooo cool! Maple King’s hat/Afro was soooo awesome! Now I’m soooo hungry! Great video! Good times!
Lexington and Greensboro? Oh man you guys where right in my neck of the woods! I have a trip planed for Memorial day weekend to the NC mountains, thinking about exploring the trails along the north-end of the Blue Ridge parkway. Hope I can find a nice deserted State Road where I can pull off to the side and stretch my Ridgerunner between two trees. Its about my only option right now as I don't have a bear-can and Pisgah has mandated it for back-pack camping.
Watched this last night on the big screen! Ya know a video is a gud'n when it opens with the Maple King! Ha! Looks like you fellers had an epic trip eating your way across the state! MOST EXCELLENT!
Gotta watch out for them Hickery boy's they will come to your home town and eat up all your BBQ then move on to the next 😏 lol love your videos guys epic stuff wish I could see you guys in TN sometime
Always love the vids. Y'all just getting downright silly with that fire head walking :) I'm on a 3 week countdown untill I'm toating a whole Rockhouse pie down to the river. Can't wait.
May your friend ship have room aboard for all of us Shug. Only watched part 3, I'm not sure why, but the other two are in my future so that's OK. Atb, Tim
Thanks for your 6 part series on the Grand Loop. You were the first to put it on You Tube. I see you camped near the Crack of Doom , a crevass that runs down thru the cliffs. EVER check that bad boy out?
You two are so damn Corky I love the content that you have I also love the fact that you can get out with your brother and do these little hikes keep up the great videos Shug
Next time y’all are in Burke, y’all should stop by JD’s BBQ in Connelly Springs. My most recent trip on Shortoff I noticed that some people must not know how to dig a hole...
Don't know why, but that dog gone Maple King kills me . Going to the BBQ Festival in Lexington in October Finally scored a room by the vineyard! If you haven't tried Smiley's it is well worth it to do so. Not only great BBQ and red slaw, but the fried chicken wings are off the chain. Looking at the old pictures do you ever wonder why our creator gave us 3x more hair than we need when we are young instead of averaging it out?
Awesome videos! I enjoy every one that comes from your Channel. The Maple King is epic, long live the Maple King. The wife keeps asking is it Hickory or Hickery? Thanks again for the great videos..
3:36 - In a testament to their friendship, Shug is completely unfazed when Hickery tries to fit a ziplock bag over his head for unknown reasons.
Nothing surprises me!!!!!!
Can't that you enough for these videos.
Does my soul good...keeps the outdoors on my mind while I'm inside...and the pickin is sweet!!!
Thankee feller.
seriously, Never stop. You 2 are well loved
As long as it is fun!!!!~~~~~~
Thankee for sharing Sir Shug. I am always happy for you that you get to spend quality time with Ole Hickery. This past Saturday, I got to take one of my best friends out for his first night in a hammock. It was great to see him enjoy a night in the piney woods. Until the next episode!
It is a gift.
Shug you make the
. best videos! love me so good ole Blues on a banjo don't get no better than that, and the beautiful flowers, food, and what GORGEOUS mountains !! And such awesome intertament... thanks
The flowers were really popping!
Hello Shug, I just wanted to be one of the first to wish you a very happy & healthy 60th birthday on Monday!! May you have many, many more to celebrate in the future and a BIG THANKS for all the education & entertainment you've given us over your time on UA-cam!!
Thank you. Cake today. 60 feels allright so far.
Glad to hear it, sir, especially because I'm not too far behind ya... may you enjoy the day!!
Thanks Shug for taking us along. Each day looked like a slice of heaven man ✌🏼
Truly!
I don't remember the Linville Gorge being so GRAND! I feel ya on getting in trips like these with long time friends. I go twice a year to the same stomping grounds, same buddies. Could use a trip like that right about now. Your videos have helped a bit in the waiting.
sleep, bbq, woods walking, car riding, music playing good times...woooobuddy
Had good ham for breakfast! Thankyou again.
You're a creative gem. From the music, to the comedy, to the tons of knowledge, and hobbies you pursue. Not many like you in the world.
Life is short...and getting shorter~~~~~ Thanks Bobby.
I enjoyed this 3 part series very much Shug. The breaks with the music was a nice touch. And that's a very cool way to do a trip, spontaneous with good food and road trips to break it up. When I was 21 (in 1981) me and 3 buddies went to Louisiana for 10 days from Chicago.

You mentioned it felt like old times to you too. Damn, I can't wait for a road trip now! :)
Shug, is Kent also a ginger? Could it be possible you two are both gingers? :) Those old pics are awesome!
Ahhhh...the good ol' Daze!!!!
More of a GoldenFob in those days. Never a true Ginger.
Ah the good ol exploding bean can. Reminds me of a boy scout campout we had when we were in our teens, someone threw a can of beans in the fire before we all got in the canoes and headed across the lake. Sounded like a freakin canon going off. No one was in camp when it went off, but the scout masters were quite angry and we ALL had to rake up beans from around the campsite. LOL great times. Thanks for the adventure again Hickery Brothers!
The bean bomb....a scouts curse.
Shug, I enjoy listening to you sing as much as I do watching you hike !
Thankee Kelly.
Always enjoy watching your videos Shug, especially the ones with Hickory! The flaming maple king was epic! Haha... God bless you guys! 🙏🏼⛺️🛶🔥
My favorites too.
Yep Oklahoma has peanut butter and chocolate Pop Tarts but you got to look for them. Enjoyed the music was great. Good Times for sure. Thanks.
Thankee and Pop On.
Those last photo's... Wow! Makes ME feel old. Loved this series!
Me too! We were wild then.
Dead fish makes me sad too! Loved the tree on the beach et the bark on that other tree too. Nice close-ups!
The Maple King always kills me. Another great adventure. Thanks for letting us tag along.
The old MK hot-head walks again.
Really nice shug. Beautiful trip. It’s touching to see you and ken are still such good buddies after all the years. The whooper wheel birds acrually sounded like it was saying whooper wheel.. looked like you had some quality times together. Thank you for this video shug, great viewing. Seeing the photos of you guys when you were young was interesting and a little melancholic.
Thankee. Fun to see that we were young once.
Thank you Hickery Brothers for making my Saturday that much better. You both always make me laugh and have a constant smile for the rest of my day. I see the Maple King got promoted to the Fire Maple King. Thanks again and God bless you both and all your loved ones.
Always enjoy your trip vids. Thank you sir for taking the time to take us along with you!
My pleasure.
Thanks for bringing us along! Great trip!! I lost it when Hickery got blasted by the bean can!!! Hope you enjoyed every minute. Take care brother.
We felt like we were back in high school.
Sure is some beautiful scenery. Happy to see the Hickery Bros.! A little pickin' song is always fun to hear...thanks for sharing!
Thankee.
“Finale” is the saddest word of a Hickery Brothers adventure. God bless you guys! Keep these reunion trips coming! Maple King seemed brighter this year.🔥 Sorry Karl couldn’t make it. He would have been delighted with good things to eat - the BBQ wrapped in a hush puppy and liver mush/pimento cheese samiches with french fried pataters.
Oh, 🎶Happy Birthday to you!🎶🎉and Kent a couple weeks ago!🎂
Karl had a lawnmower to tinker around with. Yessir......
shugemery 😆

The picture of me and Hickery was in NYC. We call it our 80s band picture. The one of him with the fro ...he went to one of those photo shops and rented the outfit.
Really digging the Hickory Bros. trilogy!
The BBQ Trail.
My son and I look forward to the Hickory Brother's trip every year. HAIL MAPLE KING!
We have a ton of fun. Glad you two enjoy them too.
Thanks for sharing SHUG! I was a little surprised when I saw those cans on the fire and they were still sealed.
Life on the edge o' bean!
I love your warm trips because you take nice shots of the flowers. However, in cold weather we get to see yellow man. I guess you can't have everything all at once in life.
I glimpsed yellow man!
Magnifique viewpoints, belvédères, flowers and all! Wow
love watching you two goofs trekkin through the woods!! I was up at table rock a week ago with my new friend!!! ....(and for the past few years from your suggestion) ... Live in Huntersville NC... keep trekken brothers.. and we will keep laughing with the way yall hike!!
Whoooooo Buddy))) Been to Huntersville a lot in live. It got big!
I live there Shug, sorry about the trash. It's embarrassing - Wilson Creek is another nearby treasure that gets its fair share of trash. Some people don't understand what they got till it's gone.
It always dissapoints me. But not everyone is educated about litter.
I'd been wondering about the exact makeup of the Maple King's hat, and now you're telling me it can hold fire? The Maple King's powers continue to amaze.
He is a hot head.
Great series of films I loved every minute, the pictures at the end topped it off...👍
We thankee feller.
South mountain is one of my favorite places to camp....planning a backpacking trip there soon!!
Had some good times at South Mountain.
Thanks for the vid Shug. What a great places to go and hang and eat. One day I need to come to your side of the pond!
Come for the BBQ!
I need jellied eels.
Love the pics of you “hippies”. Nice trip and always enjoy your vids. Thanks for sharing shug!
We WERE young once!
Thanks for sharing. Look forward to them every year. Love you guys.
Whoooooo Buddy)))))
What a great adventure! Love your videos. Learning so much while being amused.
Well thank you for that.
Thanks for the shortoff vid been there many times and I think it's my favorite camping spot in all of the gorge.
Some of the best views of the Gorge.
Thankee for this one, Shug. You fellers sure did take lolligaggin' to new heights on this trip. I am amazed, though, that you didn't feel the wrath of the Maple King for allowing THE FRO to have public scrutiny. Surely, that must violate some sworn oath of secrecy.
We used to shoot bottle rockets out of his fro!
Now, that's a splendid idea! Bottle rockets shooting out of the Maple King's hat...
Man what a fun trip! Except for the liver mush........that might not have sounded like much fun. lol Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing the adventure.
One of your best. I really like how younse enjoy all different styles of camping. I also love going to different bbq places. Thanks again for sharing.
P.S. I wear my shug shirt everywhere I can in public places and still didn't encounter another shug fan, but when I do it will be glorious!
Just about getting out of the house sometimes and away from chores. Thanks on the shirt.
Love the videos of NC. Been to some of the same places for BBQ. Really like the hikes, hopefully one day I will be well enough to hike again. Took a bad fall last year and still recovering.... be safe...
Heal up.........them falls are scary...ua-cam.com/video/gnsKv_mFkTg/v-deo.html
shugemery - thanks . Old bodies don’t heal as fast as I use too. Getting there. I actually live in Greensboro- you went to the Stameys on Battleground.
Yep....closer to Maxie Bs cake!
I loved your photos of the early days. Early! You guys are the best.
Our 80s rock moog band days.
I can just keep watching his videos over and over there so good
I am bowing here....
Big fan, keep making these videos for us Shug. In 6 days my first night out in my hammock in Wiclow Mointains. You made me try :) Wish me luck. We will see what i managed to learn from you :) Can't wait..
Enjoy the hammock quest.
Thanks for this series Shug. Good stuff as always!
The BBQ hunt was the best!
Loved it. Makes me wish I had a good friend to hang out with. You guys are great.
Yeah...I am fortunate.
You boys and fire, hum . . . . Looking a little radial with all that hair Shug. I am betting it is only the outside that has changed, the kid is inside asking "What happened? Not that it will stop me, but what happened!" Thanks for sharing some great views of a future destination, stopping by for a night or two before a visit to my sister in Mooresville and maybe a night or two on the way back home this fall!
We were young and wild. We used to shoot bottle rockets out of Hickery's fro!
Awesome trip. Good times with your brother. Welcome home again, Shug.
Thankee and Whoooooo Buddy))))

A multitude of spots to explore in the Gorge. Tablerock is just a gateway.....

Would loved to have walked in to see you two guys here in The Piedmont! Great duo video as always. Come back soon and Cheerwines are on me!
Eating the BBQ was a great part of this trip. I miss NC Q.
Hahaha fun on the trails! Inspiration... And good on ya mate for cleaning up along the way, you poor bugger, hope pts subsided quickly or would that be pps 😂👍👍✌
Curse of an old boy scout cleaning up after others....
Was on Shortoff about 40 years ago when the blueberries were ripe. Nothing like wild blueberries. Ate so many that weekend that let us say, we did not have any problems with #2 if you know what I mean.
Best views from up there.
Lexington barbecue, the Maple King, livermush, exploding Beanie Weenies...
What more could you ask for? Excellent video.
We were fulfilled.
Wow! Those pictures. What stud muffins!!!! Another great video. Good to see you both again.
More donNUTS than muffins!
What a great trip you two had. Fabulous videos, Shug.
Thankee so.
Your crushing it on that audio track Shug. Love it, Thanks for sharing.
Thankee feller/////
I had the pleasure of meeting Hickory at the Johns Rock Hang. I introduced myself as Bush. Judging from his picture, he could have introduced himself as Bush as well! LOL!!
We called him Lee Oscar.
Takes me back to when I lived in Winston-Salem. Now in Minnesota and I'm thinking it's time to take my kids back to visit old friends.
And BBQ!
shugemery ... might, could get some BBQ. ;-)
Thanks for taking us along!
Yessir!
Fantastico! Friends, hiking, camping and BBQ. Wonderful.
Such a great BBQ romp.
I thought you were close to home before but when I saw Stamey's...woo buddy...that's one of my regular lunch stops! Next time you'll need to try Prissy Polly's in Kernersville (just off of 40)! You'll love the food (eastern and Lexington style) and the old-timey music vibe! Furthermore, the Maple King is a little intimidating but I've heard tell, his bark is worse than his bite.
We' will be on the lookout next time. We were following the NC BBQ Trail
Hickory!!!! Your not surprised to put plastic bags on you head! Hahahaha that bit cracked me up too much! Another great set of videos! Thank you! WOOOOO BUDDY!
Nothing he does phases me anymore. We been hanging out since 6th grade.
10:27 Your singing sounded like Robert Cray. Very good music, maple king, and two good friends makes me smile.
You made my day on this comment.
LMAO love the flaming Maple King. Always enjoy the Maple King. Woooo buddy!
I know this is a little late but the last time you guys were in the gorge ( if I have my weekends correct) I was there the same time but I was on the other side I went in at the falls entrance and started at the Bynum bluff trail, I stopped by the cabin to say hello to everyone and there was a big table set up in the middle of the room covered with free pie from Louise's. I am not sure what all different kinds there were there, I heard some one talking about pineapple but the first one I seen was blackberry and that was as far as I need to go. if I knew you were at shortoff I could have almost hollered across the gorge " Ho Shug free pie " . the next Saturday after watching your video I did have go to go to Stamys for some BBQ, thanks for the idea
We stopped by but skipped pie. Ran into gorge Rats. Whooooooo Buddy))))
Thanks for another great vlog Shug! oh ...also.. check out the small UFO to the top right of the chopper at the beginning......it's cool! :)
ET come home!
Great vid Shug , always love the Hickery Brothers adventures
We thankee.
Soooooo good..So good! You had a whippoorwill experience....lololo..soooo cool! Maple King’s hat/Afro was soooo awesome! Now I’m soooo hungry! Great video! Good times!
The relentless whipperwhill!
Lexington and Greensboro? Oh man you guys where right in my neck of the woods! I have a trip planed for Memorial day weekend to the NC mountains, thinking about exploring the trails along the north-end of the Blue Ridge parkway. Hope I can find a nice deserted State Road where I can pull off to the side and stretch my Ridgerunner between two trees. Its about my only option right now as I don't have a bear-can and Pisgah has mandated it for back-pack camping.
Have a right goodie out there!
You don't need a canister in the ranger district only in the wilderness areas. Like Shining rock.
Thanks for the great videos. If these videos don't make you want to go outside and spend time with loved ones nothing will.
Whooooo Buddy)))))
Lovely vids as always Shug thanks for lifting the spirits yet again. Given the month don't you think Hickory should be dubbed the Maypole King
Too funny!
Thanks for sharing this adventure Shug! The fire maple king hat had me 😂😂
Man we laughed! Whiskey inspired~~~~~
I still have not scratched my BBQ itch. Looked amazing!
Thanks for the fun videos
Sounds like you need some post-haste.
Speaking of trash left out
ua-cam.com/video/NLdr3ldBno0/v-deo.html
Another great vídeo!! Thanks from Brazil.
Whooooo Buddy)))))
Great video! And the Gorge is my all time fav place. Really enjoy the music in this one too brother! -Mike
Thankee Mike.

The BBQ Trail tour was priceless!
Always love the vids. Y'all just getting downright silly with that fire head walking :) I'm on a 3 week countdown untill I'm toating a whole Rockhouse pie down to the river. Can't wait.
Pie by the river. The best.
I went camping with my wife this weekend; every time she said "early", guess what I said?! Lol, thanks Shug.
EARLY!!!!
Hey Shug! I have been crazy busy lately but was catching up on videos. you were less then 10 mins. from me down at Lexington BBQ. great video!
Bet you can smell it from home!
May your friend ship have room aboard for all of us Shug.
Only watched part 3, I'm not sure why, but the other two are in my future so that's OK.
Atb, Tim
Him and I been friends since the 6th grade. Thanks.
Absolutely beautiful!! I love the music too! 😊
Thankee!
Thanks for your 6 part series on the Grand Loop. You were the first to put it on You Tube.
I see you camped near the Crack of Doom , a crevass that runs down thru the cliffs. EVER check that bad boy out?
We did not. Hard to do a lot of side trips doing the loop in time.
You two are so damn Corky I love the content that you have I also love the fact that you can get out with your brother and do these little hikes keep up the great videos Shug
Our yearly get together!
Fantastic Shug and Ken!!! Wonderful series!!!
We than ya'
Next time y’all are in Burke, y’all should stop by JD’s BBQ in Connelly Springs. My most recent trip on Shortoff I noticed that some people must not know how to dig a hole...
So many Q joints!

Someday we shall.
Linville Gorge and the Hickory Brothers........forever intertwangled!!
The Gorge is our cousin.
I wish I would’ve known you were coming to NC and in my hometown! Wilber’s BBQ is just a few minutes away from the house!
We coulda dropped by for a nap after Wilbers!
shugemery You are welcome anytime!
Great old pics! Thanks for sharing them! Is that you Shug with the Vuarnets!?!?
That is me in those glasses. I miss those.
Don't know why, but that dog gone Maple King kills me . Going to the BBQ Festival in Lexington in October Finally scored a room by the vineyard! If you haven't tried Smiley's it is well worth it to do so. Not only great BBQ and red slaw, but the fried chicken wings are off the chain.
Looking at the old pictures do you ever wonder why our creator gave us 3x more hair than we need when we are young instead of averaging it out?
Funny but true. Miss all that hair!!!!
OMG, Hickories hair is magical.
We use to shoot bottle rockets out of his hair!
Awesome videos! I enjoy every one that comes from your Channel. The Maple King is epic, long live the Maple King. The wife keeps asking is it Hickory or Hickery? Thanks again for the great videos..

I love hush puppies. Never had them with BQ. ALWAYS had them with fish. Think next time I BQ I'll make me some👍👍
