you know this actually makes sense ... practice now while there is reasonable assistance to learn .. well done as usual
Thanks for letting us join you on your hike. Beautiful and so peaceful!!
My dog (Belgian Malinois) requires a lot of exercise, rain, snow, heat, winds, day, night, city, bush….he is always ready to go.
Thanks for taking us along during class time!
Lol! The Great Outdoors!
Thanks for taking us along. One other benefit of hiking in inclement weather is that there are fewer people out.
Beautiful part of the country.
So beautiful up their...enjoy!
Nice tip about how to find dry wood for a fire, Modern Refugee. Never hurts to file tips like that away in one's memory.
I’d rather hike in rain than hot Sun. Fall just after it rains is my favorite. About 40-50 degrees.
Thanks Modern. Enjoy the hike!
Love it north of the 45Th parallel. I’m about 45ish minutes from petoskey.
Such a beautiful ambiance, this was so relaxing and soothing man! Bravo
Wonderful hike and scenery, thanks for sharing YAH bless brother !
Beautiful area. It's so peaceful and lush. I know you enjoyed that hike.👍😀. Have a blessed week.
When we lived in Central Illinois we did a lot of winter hiking during snow storms. Living in the country is great.
Back in the day I hiked in the Great Smoky Mountains... once got caught in a big thunderstorm more than halfway up the mountain 😯 We weren't prepared for much of anything back then...smh We just stayed away from the taller trees...
Good advice as always MR 😎👍
You are in my area! I'm a little south of Petoskey. Next time your up hit fisherman's paradise just south of Charlavoix.
Thank you for sharing!
Looks similar to where I live
Solid video and point, thank you
Where I live, camping and hiking was easiest Nov-Feb; less rain, cool, few insects. But things were greener and wildlife more active during the rainy season. (I say "was" because I haven't been able to do it for some years).
Rained 42 hours straight here , stopped about 6 a.m. today , deck is still wet , so is the grass , I’m behind on mowing the lawn
Mondays and fridays are my ruck run days. Rain or shine but only a mile as it is during my lunch break. Keep up the great work! Always good to get out and touch some grass!
I live in northern Michigan, in the UP. We literally only have two seasons- snow and bugs. The mosquitoes are treacherous. I would love to move but I guess it's better to be where no one else wants to 🤦
I LOVE da U.P.!
We often comment how blessed we are to have very little bugs ...SW Pa. and WV
@@katie7748 The winters are definitely beautiful
@@reidcrosby6241 that sounds very nice :)
Hi, M R.... Wicking is always a good choice... Definitely inclement weather walks/ hikes teach what's possible in that area. Having to bug rarely happens in beautiful weather. Lol.
Yes definitely.
Great tip on the dry standing dead wood!
Beautiful hike. Some very healthy poison ivy too!
Yes in places.
Amazon sells Petoskey stones :) Michigan is beautiful
I could spend a month there exploring.
Beautiful area!
Hello ! Double , Still Thinkin’
We like to hike in Indiana during January or February before the leaves come on. You can see the surroundings farther out. And see land features you wouldnt normally see.
Nice area,still actually good trout fishing there. We live about 10 minutes from Petoskey.
I’m making your rhubarb jello jam right now!
@@ModernRefugee I’m sure you’ll like it.
@@justusupnorth8262 we love it by Wolverine. If I only had the $ to move lol!
It's 105° rn in SoCal 😅 can't go hiking rn. It's too much!
Learn and make mistakes now while there is a backup
And time.
@@henrymorgan3982 I would say we are out of time now
That's where all our water is, Alabama is a desert right now..
That’s one thing about the Great Lakes, there is water.
My Aunt has an App on her cell phone , take a picture on the plant or tree , and it tells you what it is , and a description of what it’s good for , she also has a hand held language translation gadget , 134 languages if I remember right ,
I know a few who have that.
@@ModernRefugee sky is solid blue right now , light breeze still 68 degrees though
What a wonderful, beautiful and relaxing vid that's chock full of great advice and tips! Have a question on native edibles to specific areas...is there a good book that you can recommend for this area? I live in Ohio and we probably have much the same flora. Thank you so much for all that you do and God bless you and yours.
Most of what I know I learned from my parents and grandparents. There is a book called Midwest Foraging that is ok and I know people who use apps on their phones for id on plants.
Thank you and have a wonderful week!
Just out of Curiosity do you know what module of coat that is? I've never seen it before.
It’s a Carhartt storm rain coat.
