On The Road Again

Well after this weekend we will be hitting the road over the next couple of weeks. Chloe and I are heading next weekend to southern middle Tennessee for some camping and hiking. The next weekend Chase and I are headed to Memphis Tennessee for his birthday weekend. I see lots of videos headed yall’s way soon.

450 Uploads on YouTube

When today’s video goes up on YouTube that will make 450 videos recorded and edited. All the hours put into this and all the stuff we have to work around to do this weekly has been well worth it in my book. This ride I have been on with YouTube and meeting everyone I have met on there has been so much fun. I look forward to so much more coming up, with hopefully meeting a lot of you in person.

Be Prepared

Pick It UP!!!

Sometime it is up to us to pick up everyones trash.

I know I am not the only one doing this, but we shouldn’t have to be. Here of lately it seems on the trail I am seeing more and more litter just laying on the trail. In Scouting it is pounded into us Leave No Trace. I can remember as a young scout myself we were at the end of a big trip ready to go and they would yell police line. What this meant was the whole troop would line up arm length apart and SLOWLY walk the campsite picking up any and I mean any little peace of trash we saw. Today going into my 50’s I understand it more than ever. I also now get keeping you camping foot print as small a possible that way you can control the amount of damage your doing to the environment. After all that is the main goal of leave no trace isn’t it, to save the land for the next hiker or outdoors man to come along. We as outdoors community have to pound it home to the next generation leave no trace and why we leave no trace.
