The Bighorns are an underrated treasure. Done 5 or 6 trips there, never disappointed

I have both... the important thing is knowing where you're going also how high you're going... Even if there are trees in your area... if you go above the tree line you do need a tent... The best thing about some hammocks are they do not take a lot of space... so you can bring both on most trips... Tent,Tarp, hammock is not much to bring... A hammock also makes a good chair if you need to relax somewhere and catch up on your energy

Great shots of the Bear. I would have never thought that Texas would be so mountainous. Really beautiful out there brother. Definitely lots of wildlife

From the DG, grab a bag of Cocoa DinoBites cereal, parcel into ziplocs with some powdered milk and have a high calorie chocolate cereal bfast with milk, just add water. Add a Carnation chocolate instant bfast for even more calories...

A Bear!! Always a rush! I don't like any of PRs macaroni meals! Lots of hot sauces helps lol

beautiful scenery, what an adventurous trip,. thanks for sharing.

Another amazing video from the Buckley!

Looks like an interesting place to see. Take care

Am I the only one that thinks it looks like there’s a hand inside the bag?

This pipe is okay but i believe Fumo Pipe and the Incredibowl m420 are the best hand pipes i tried really under rated piped

It helps me sleep

Really liked the way you put this one together, Buckley. Great editing. Lots of awesome scenery and wildlife footage.

Congrats on the bear sighting. 😊 I take it after April it gets…hot.

love the ending

so fortunate to be able to see bears on a trail. Still something I want to experience for myself as well just not too close :)

Wow the footage of the bear is just incredible! What a humbling and amazing experience 🙏❤. One you will never forget. Looks like an epic trip, thanks for taking us along🙌 Shell and Pete

Who would have thought in all the places you’ve been Texas would yield the first bear encounter

Someone needs to tell Rob that Texas has to be different, so “south Texas”, north Texas etc isn’t what you think. Big Bend is considered west Texas. He’s going to get flak for calling it south Texas on his vid, haha!

First bear? I see that you had a good smoke afterwards! 😊 I've only seen them retreating at full gallop, except for the yearling that I saw with a small group of hikers in the Smokeys last summer in a rhododendron thicket down in a cove while we were on the crest. He was so freaked that he didn't know which way to run, which gave me just enough time to unzip my shoulder pocket, but not enough to get my hand on my phone.😖

not sure how I would like to see a Bear on the trail. But what an experience I'm glad you were a safe distance from the bear. And after your second review of the Peak Refuel Bison meal, I will be eating mine in the backyard. I don't want to be on trail with a mediocre meal.

Great video. I dig the music. Nice shot of the bear. Congrats on the encounter. Ey Transformers!

Awesome bear sighting! It was high 40s here yesterday most of the snow has now melted but yesterday in the snow I saw bear tracks at Jay Cooke lol

Beautiful area… would love to hike in Big Bend. Congrats of losing your bear-virginity! 😂

Seeing a bear in the wild is just amazing. A friend of mine had 13 bear encounters on the AT.

Looks like a great adventure. Great wildlife sightings! I'll be in Big Bend over Christmas, first time down there.

Awesome brother! I am a little surprised that Steven Rinella would put his name and face on a meal that's mediocre at best. Those bears would make me nervous since they scare me. Thanks for the video

Now that is quite the drive to the grocery store! 🤩🙌. Absolutely stunning, bet you can't wait to hike in this area of Texas, we will look forward to seeing you explore more Tim. Thanks for taking us along for the ride 😊👍 Shell and Pete

No hammocks?? What a waste of American land.

Amazing trip bro. We were so glad to see ya and spend some time of trail. Cheers!

You gotta get out to the southeast rim before they close it for falcons. Best view in Texas!

The best part of two KZbinrs backpacking together is you get two videos with different perspectives on the trip. Enjoyed seeing this trip with you and Rob Pelton and I'm looking forward to his video of the same trip. Especially all the wildlife encounters with deers and bears, oh my.

Congrats on your first bear sighting

Looks like another awesome trip!

Nice video pal. Glad to see you doing well and spending some time with RP!

A beautiful trail to reach into the Chisos. My last trip into Boot Canyon it was 21° weather and quite invigorating. It made for a good respite from the 65 mph winds we experienced.✌️

Cant beat hiking with the one and only Rob Pelton . Loved all the wildlife. We recently had a small black bear and a wolf in my area. Central Ohio, and we just dont have bears and wolves. That bear was oblivious to you and chowing down. I love my Mountain House. Have a great week

That's some rugged and desolate looking country.

Warms my heart to see you enjoying this area of Texas! Cheers!✌️

I always say everything in the Chihuahuan Desert wants to stick you, stab you or bite you. Mule Ears Trail is where I almost stepped on a Mexican Black-tailed rattler. Ch, take you a day hike up to Cattail Falls if you can. cheers!✌️

It’s good to see you got settled in! I really enjoy camping at South Rim 4. Wonderful video my friend!✌️

I owned that stool. it came unglued 3 times, it then broke. I would not buy the BTR stool again.

Gran texa 🎉

So glad you seem to be enjoying a little corner of our state!! I hope you have some amazing adventures while you’re here!!!

can't wait to see some armadillo content!!!

Very.. and the camera never gives the views justice. Thanks for sharing brother

First

Looks like a great time....thanks for sharing

Desert hiking is underappreciated

So many different places to enjoy being outside and camping. Thanks

yeah, looks bone dry. I went to put on chapstick watching the video. Reminds me of So Cal when I lived there two decades ago. Beautiful night sky. Thanks for showing.
