Very good gents. I'm jealous. Beautiful scenery. I've been seeing a few videos of the Buffalo and the Current rivers lately. Good lord willing I'll be trying them out this coming summer. (2025) Mean while, please keep up the good work. Thanks

You guys didn't take out at hast did you? We put in there not knowing we couldn't drive on the bank. We were wore out before we started paddling.

I enjoyed your adventure! I live nearby and have been hiking the Gila for 30 years. *I've learned that wearing Gortex socks with non-Goretex boots is a good way to handle the river crossings. Your feet stay dry and the water can drain out of your boots without having to stop and drain them after every crossing. Thanks.

The Goat Trail on Big Bluff is literally a goat trail.

Great video! Looks like y'all know how to eat on a float trip. Loved the "floating corn". LOL

This was cool, thank for posting. We love the Gila area

Did you guys die or why no new videos

Great video, this is definitely on our bucket list. What time of year was it?

Nice video😊

Mogollon = “muggy own” pronunciation wise, Leftover from the 2011 Miller Fire, probably saw Javelina

Awww darn. Loved your video, low key, brothers, etc… until it’s unfortunate that you feel (felt) it’s ok to use a drone in the Wilderness area. They are one of the few places where there is absolute peace from human machines. AND it can disturb wildlife, and other hikers. I feel that is unethical and irresponsible. I cannot subscribe at this point. You say u do it for viewers, but ur viewers would hopefully not WANT u to do that.

What time of May was this?

This takes me back fifty years. My brother and his buddy were in one heavily loaded canoe, they were planning on a multi-day camping float trip. Me and my buddy were just doing a day float so we were lightly loaded. We came to one of those one to two foot drops and their canoe was just riding too low in the water and it turned into a submarine. All their gear went floating and it was cold! We fished their stuff out for them and they camped on the bank and built a fire and had a generally miserable night. I thought it was hilarious because I was dry and warm and...you know, brothers! We now have a brand new cabin about five miles from Hasty. Still love it up there.

Thanks for your memories of an amazing trip down the Buffalo River! That’s the current I want if I ever get to ride the Buffalo River Easy yet some fast current! Y’all have some great memories to share with your friends and family!

There wouldn't be any pastures if there wasn't fire the fires. The elk and dear love it.

Those packs look pretty dang heavy.. the black hills are amazing and scared lands of lakota. Black elk peak is amazing. But little devils tower and cathedral spires are better in my opinion. Great content hope you make it back!

I met someone in the Linville Gorge who got blown off a cliff and fell something like 250 feet into the canyon. He shattered his pelvis and broke a ton of bones. He had to get airlifted out by a blackhawk helicopter because standard medical helicopters can’t withstand the updrafts from the deep canyon. Because it was the US Military that rescued him, and he is an American citizen, the helicopter ride was free! The ambulance ride from Morganton to Duke University Hospital was $1M, though.

Nice video. I've hiked most of that, and more of other stuff there. It's a magical place. Quick note, since I didn't see anyone else mention it: I'm fairly certain that your drone (which provided some awesome shots of your hike) is illegal to use inside the wilderness area (part of the no machinery thing). I think that the National Parks also have a no drone rule, but I'm less certain of that. The area around the cliff dwellings is managed by the NPS. Just something to look into before you go back, or to another wilderness area. It wouldn't be fun to get cited, fined, etc.

We had put the Buffalo off until next year, sadly. Awesome vid showing what we can expect if the water is high! Cheers

Good stuff, Ive got several videos of my hikes there!! Love that place

what breed is your dog

😂

Step 2 waiting for you! Steve Wallis would approve. That giggle is classic.

Good stuff fellas 👍🏻 Spent many days and nights of my youth up in that country.

Great video. I've got a group of friends interested in a trip like this. Did you guys use a shuttle service?

That was a black bear print 😁

Nice video. Some frinds and I do a three day trip on the upper buffalo every spring. Its an amazing river.

Enjoyed this you two, subscribed accordingly. Good luck both....

That is an excellent mini hiking/travel log with Loki . Glad you had a great time!

Looks like you guys had a wonderful time out there! The camp looks super cozy. I am going to have my first overnighter with my dog soon, so your video gave me even more motivation. Nice one. Looking forward to your future adventures ;) Best wishes, Mario

Absolutely gorgeous upload bud, shots and serene atmosphere here are spectacular! 🔥🔥

Well done, nice editing. I live in the Black Hills and it was fun watching you hike areas I've hiked on day hikes. Did you begin at Big Pine, if not which TH? Your backpacks were definitely too heavy. There are vids to help you see how you can lighten the load. Sorry you missed Black Elk Peak, but it was a wise choice due to the weather. Come back and do the whole Lost Cabin loop, 14.7 miles, for an overnighter some time.

Amazing -- almost one of those "hard to watch" JOurneYs -- I have never seen this location featured in any travel/outdoor adventure KZbin vids before -- thanks brothers for taking us along.

Wow! Some great hidden surprises, thank you for taking us on the journey along with you

are we aloud to camp near elk peak on off the trail?

Your content is very well thought out -- Kudos to your 2-Man Team -- the captures and editing are high quality -- I have a Photog Degree (Bio-medical) and Host a single site campground in the NC Smokys -- Loved this vlog -- I am thrilled that I am the 3rd subscriber -- I am sure that (it will take a long time to build) someday in the future, I will log on to see you with 300,000 subscribers.

Gentlemen, I met you yesterday hiking to HIH falls. Look forward to watching this video as well as your work and adventure in the Buffalo River Wilderness. Good luck!

This trail is incredible. The terrain is amazing and the views especially from Black Elk Peak area. We did a 25 mile loop starting at Sylvan Lake, to little Devil's Tower, Norbeck to Centennial and then up to Black Elk Peak and return to Sylvan Lake. How was the horse crap on trail? It was in full effect while we were there. Now following!
