Cooking steaks in the dark of night by a camp fire, ya that's a perfect time right there!
I'll take cold weather camping any day- no mosquitoes, rattlesnakes, flies etc. Stars are like diamonds!
Ya I don't camp but kept saying I was gonna buy the bugs and such and now too cold 😅
Cold night !!! Stay warm & safe !!! I'm watching from a warm & comfortable home ! Thanks for the trip !
Gooood evening from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great night!
Best time for the southern part of the forest is late April through late September
@KellyHaysHikes..- the rest of the year, stay warm in Florida
I got hungry seeing those steaks. I’ve never cooked steaks in bacon grease before. I’ll have to give that a try.
You gotta dump most of the grease off before you drop the steaks on. Then treat it just like olive oil or whatever else you’d cook in!
Can’t wait for the hike. We been talking about doing it also
Love the Kerry gold! Best butter ever, and bacon seasoned steaks- yum!
Yessssss!!!!
Beautiful place to wake up!
Hi , Great video ,almost Heaven , I hike and backpack alot north of you south out of Bass resort on The Ozark TRail
Yum! Love steaks cooked in bacon grease! Good times!
Yooooo! I was at the crater of diamond mines and camped on the river like two days before the flash flood went through and took all those people. Crazy!
Oh and nice van, sell me land rover. 😁
That’s wild!!!! Hahahah thanks but neverrrr😆😆😆
Medium rare ribeye & Dales 10/10
I seen her van at trail days last year and ran into her and her friends in the Smokies and trail magic sometime after the Smokies I think. It was a pleasure meeting her and her friends and made my 2023 Thru hike that much better.
Oz!!!!!!!! We love you!!! Hope everything is going well up in Canada!!
@@kellyhays23 Ahhh.... Thank-you very much. Hope your life and Marriage is going well. In 57 more days I will start my flip flop for 66 days northbound and then take a break in the summer with my family and then flip to Katahdin in September to finish up. I will be at trail days so hope to see all you and your friends. Curious to see how far I will get. But sadly I am not solo so my mileage will be lower and almost normal. Huge 4 feet snow storm during the week is hitting eastern Canada so that is great for winter sports.
I been at this place many times. Great swimming holes and awesome trails
Also big bears 🐻
Howdy Kelly ! Thanks for sharing! I am wearing that same green shaggy coat as I watch…what a coincidence! And comfortable huh? Hike on girl!
Absolutely love your video and van! That would be so much fun. Glad you have someone to travel and camp with. The food looks delicious as always. Thanks to you both for sharing your adventures. Be careful stay safe and enjoy your hike and camping trip. I can't wait until I see the next one. 💖
Steak is always the best fuel for an epic adventure!
Your van is the same year as my Dodge Ram 1500 and mine is a 4x4 I’ve had for 4 and a half years now. I maybe getting a camper sometime in the late spring and my truck can pull it since I have a V8 Hemi. By the way, those steaks look really good!
Hey Kelly 👋👋 hope u enjoyed yr steaks 🥩.. be safe my friend.. love ❤️ from New Mexico 😊
Get them leaks fixed ASP they will lead to nothing but trouble quick. Nice looking trip and great van tour.
That van is so cool and I bet it is nice to camp and hike with someone. I really struggle solo camping!! Look forward to your backpacking trip.
I need to send you some decals for that van!! I helped pimp out Fresh Grounds van several years ago. I got to meet you last year at Trail Days while we were vending. Stay safe!!
Winding stair trail head! Let’s Go!!! We just did it this Thanksgiving clockwise! I can’t wait to see how you liked climbing those peaks! 😮
Looks fun , thanks for taking us along.
I know right where you are. Got family all in hot springs village area. I love passing thru here. Subbed!

Hello Kelly, I am a new subscriber. I wanted to view people who camp as well as hike. God bless and be safe.
I was cold just watching your video. We're missing you here in Florida already... y'all come back now ya here.🌴😎🌴
1:36 @KellyHaysHikes..- Someone claiming to be you requested a connection through a telegram which sounds like a scam
I thought I seen in one of your previous posts that you don't have a telegram account?
That was good overall day ,Arkansas 🍁
Nice to see you out again. Hope you are enjoying your time at home. Awesome eats. Have you had any snow in Arkansas? Stay warm and be safe. Your friend in Florida. Did you hear about the guy who found a 5 karat diamond at the Crater of Diamonds state park recently?
My wife and I are living our outdoor lives vicariously through your channel until we get some time off to hit the trail. Please keep the good stuff coming... And where did you get that chonky green fleece? Its amazing.
8:59 The famous MSR Whisperlite (aka: "Whiskerlite" for its tendency to burn the facial hair off of guys who overprimed them).
I sold a bunch at REI in the 1980s, and cleaned a bunch for other hikers way back when I section hiked the Long Trail, giving me the trail name of "Tinker".
Nice, relaxing video. Thanks, Kelly.
i camped and hiked into albert pike as a kid. gorgeous area but that 2016 flood was intense.
Those steaks looked so good.
Seriously the best I’ve had in a long long time!
Wow, those steaks looked amazing! Hitting it on a 30 miler! Wow, you been hiking more since Florida? O am taking my Sprinter camper van down the Oregon coast into California in February and March. I just bought it several months ago so I am excited to adventure. Will be doing a lot of day hikes and kayaking when the weather allows. Looking forward to next video! Are you getting closer to announcing your 2024 through hike? I got a solid hunch that it is the CDT??????
You had to do me like that for the fire starter?!? Dang…
Those were some good steaks though.
🤣
$2.59 for Diesel? Here in NY, it's well over $4.00. I haz an envy! Hope that steak was rare! Beyond YUMMY, especially when out camping!
Recently found your channel, and it’s dope seeing someone else from AR that makes content! Also, blew my mind when I saw Noah, he was my RA Freshman year in college. Haha such a small world!
Morgan!!!
@@noahstephens7622 Noah!! Hope all’s going good for ya dude!
Yay Noah!!!!
Fame
My close ups are in the next 2 vids don’t worry.
Hey MJ, nice video, watching you guys cooking out has gotten me fired up to do a little overnighter. I think I have all my cold weather gear lined up, now I just have to pull the trigger and go! Unfortunatly my meal won't be steak and homemade mac 'n cheese, (I'll just have to get by with an MRE) LOL Can't wait for your next episode.
Im hungry after watching that!👍
Seeing you in the Ouachitas makes me think that it would be really cool if you did a video with Cody and Kellie at Dome Life someday.
I did one a long time ago! It’s on the channel - stay tuned we have some plans in the worjs
Nice van 👍,,,steaks for life 🏋
AGHHHHHHH! YOU'RE NEAR ME!
(I'm in Oklahoma)
Wow loveing the dead stuff ..... Rock on girl 😎✌️
👍👍👍
Where did you get your rug that’s right inside the side door? We’re looking for a rug like that in that size but not sure where to look.
Walmart!
One of the most beautiful women on UA-cam ...loving the adventures Kelly ❤❤❤
Where did you get your van?
I live in Missouri near Mark Twain National Forest.
Bought it in Utah when I was working out west
Off facebook marketplace
I'm glad you're not a vegetarian...😊
There is nothing quite so yummy as meat cooked on a fire 😋 my mouth is watering 😂
You are such a COOL, BADASS, FUN, INDEPENDENT & flat out BEAUTIFUL WOMAN you’re an INSTANT SUBSCRIPTION!!!
(Plus having had to sell our fishing camp in Louisiana to help pay for my Old Man’s cancer treatments I SO miss SOUTHERN ACCENTS & CHARM!!) ❤️💐💥🎉🍾🥂
Glorious, you are totally living my dream.shamim👏🤝⭐🕊👫🫂👥🎎👨👩👧👦💏
You cooking the steaks in bacon grease?
Yes
@@veritas2145 bet that was great
Yes!!
🥩🥓🍜 😳😋
Fl misses ya....😢🥰
I’ll be back soon! 😉
Awesome girl! 😊👍👏🏻
Is that a SOLO stove?
Yes!
I aspire to be you in life
Do you still have your Forrester?
Yes
Your videos are good. But you have no video SEO done. Videos need to be SEO'd. Then the views on your video will increase. Thanks in Advance.
Camping with bro -in law would be forbidden in my family 😅
Same here.
Kelly, your brother-in-law. Are you married?
Do you have any other single sisters 😂😀just being funny I didn’t know that you had any other siblings I mean besides your mom and dad I thought you were a lonely child so you enjoy your hiking trip
Anyway, Kelly, love your videos! Red flag #1 on this one. The dude sits in your van while you pump the gas while he's playing on his phone? Absurd and ignorant. He forgot to put on his hoodie to fit the part. Red flag #2, Walmart steak is not good and I wouldn't eat it. Too many antibacterial cleaners in it. Their meat and seafood products have a Lysol flavor that can't be covered up.
It’s my van and my gas to pump!
@budgina Are you serious??🙄
You've really pick up Southern accent..
Well I’m from the south so it’s forever ingrained in my voice to some degree lol
