I really enjoy your videos. Right now it's winter. I'm recovering from a quadrupal bipas surgery and a stroke. Looking forward to getting out on some hikes this summer.

Had a friend lose his phone on trail near a creek last year. Spent a while searching and finally found it. Good feeling to not lose that, ha ha. Glad it was the same for you. Enjoyed following the trip, Alex. 👍🏻

so i've never been backpacking myself personally but i'd love to go one day. specifically in the winter time in one of those makeshift campers i see all the time on youtube. seems like a lot of fun and definitely a bucket list thing for me.

Out of the 100+ of camping and backpacking trips I've went on I've never actually gone in the winter. I plan on changing that this winter though! Winter camping is a whole different beast lol
