Amen!

[@Greggsvlog]

Loved the prayer!!!

[@outboundjesse2558]

Drinking water in the winter is crucial! Love the prayer! Love where God’s taking you guys! Many Blessings!

[@elliothill7804]

Just got back from the peninsula this evening. I love how it is west facing and the sunsets. An overwhelming sense of peace always washes over me here. I understand your feelings. This is a slice of heaven on earth. I love watching the solo campers sitting at their campsites just still and at peace.

[@hikingtochange7589]

Thank you so much for showing your faith!

[@MichaelJones1130]

I agree with Hiking to Change ☝🏻

[@jeremiahgillam3536]

I love the Deam. The Peninsula Trail is a favorite place for me to take our Scouts. Can't wait to get back.

[@dazzlingwave_]

Awesome 👍

[@mikeghost7788]

You are on the Peninsula site I stayed at the first time I ever went hiking!! This is so awesome to see!! That was over ten years ago and I go back every year!!

[@brucefluth3930]

Great to see fellow hikers, and Christian brothers, enjoying His handiwork!! Psalm 19.

[@DanBecker]

Hey Bruce! Thanks for much for sending that over! I haven’t read that psalm for a while! I just reread it and want to thank you for allowing God to use you to send that to me! Much needed!

[@brucefluth3930]

Dan Becker, I saw your earlier Pictured Rocks video. Have you ever hiked any part of the Superior Hiking Trail? I’m from the Twin Cities and love hiking the STR!

[@DanBecker]

Not yet!

[@triumfant2]

Nice trip,beautiful sunset and site.

[@aschmidy2003]

A fellow wisconsinite AND a brother in the Lord. My new favorite channel. Love your videos brother. God bless!

[@DanBecker]

Awesome!! Thanks!! What part of Wisconsin?

[@aschmidy2003]

@@DanBecker west central. Pretty close to the Ice Age!

[@DanBecker]

Awesome! The Ice Age Trail stretches thru WI from the Minnesota border to Sturgeon Bay. About 1100 miles!

[@drewwillim8346]

Great video and I agree it’s nice to see the faith! It’s Hiscreation I hike to see.

[@thuthiehiker]

Chairs, marshmallows and Jesus. You guys are really roughing it. Love that you pray out there. All glory to Him. We could do nothing without Him. Just started following after the challenge.

[@FOLLOWINGWALKERSWORLD]

Looked like a good time.

[@TheAdventuresofEli]

Hiking is my way to get away and think and just reflect on life, its very calming .. unless you take a tumble. Lol and break your phone Nice hammock 👍

[@chrisdaugherty9030]

Deam is a great place to get away , Good work bro!

[@samscott4387]

Hey Dan, just wanted to say you do a very good job with your videos and to give glory to God in them makes them that much better! God bless you and keep up the good work!

[@DanBecker]

Thanks so much for the encouragement! It means more than you know!

[@adamravert5889]

Love your passion for the outdoors and most importantly the Creator of it all. I live just outside of Smoky Mountain National park but I enjoy seeing the Midwest landscapes you guys have. Keep filming!

[@DanBecker]

God RULES!!!!!!

[@mikeghost7788]

Did part of this trail last week. It was soooooo technical because of the horse trails!! Wow it was crazy how the horse traffic shapes the trails. Took the peninsula trail out to the lake from grubb ridge trail. Still was nice to get out for a hike.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Love the fire tower view. Beautiful scenery out there. God shows his glory everyday. Especially in the woods. That fire pit was huge!! The lake is beautiful. I really like your hammock setup. Love that sunset over the lake. Nice. Good times with good friends. Nothing better. Really like the prayer at the end. All glory to God!!

[@DanBecker]

Thanks Jason!

[@SkinnyGPanda]

Watching all you guys video is cool to see the different ways you film. Always love youtube hikers meeting up. We have another meet up coming up in April down in the Red River Gorge. I always get lost. Positive vibes when I hike, it releases all my stress when I can hike. All film each other. I have to see if you have a review of that hammock, I've seen it but never SEEN it. Can't believe no one went swimming in that pretty water. LOL. Great video and meet up.

[@DollarBlazing]

Cool video! It is awesome to see youtubers hanging out!

[@StarlightTrails]

Great video! looks like you guys had a great time!

[@trailbeaneradventures5581]

BEST ENDING EVER!! THANKS FOR SHARING AMIGO.

[@Mr73172]

I am from Fort Wayne, IN and i have hiked this exact hike many times. What an excellent hike. 5 miles of a great trail and an amazing view at camp. Dan, if you ever want to do a hike here in Colorado...look me up. I am an hour from Rocky Mountain National Park.

[@DanBecker]

That sounds amazing! A couple years ago I hiked with my son at the Rocky Mountain national Park up to sand beach lake trail. It was amazing!

[@freddonelson5505]

Enjoyed watching this one. I will be heading out to the peninsula this June. It will be my first "long" hike since open heart surgery last summer. Can't wait! Thanks for sharing ... especially the prayer at the end!😎😎

[@DanBecker]

Have a blast Fred!! Very cool story. Glad you’re recovered!!!

[@MrRileyj99]

Appreciate the content, also appreciate willingness to show show your faith!

[@HuckOutdoors]

Finally getting to sit down and watch this and i'm glad to see you getting out there bud! That Fire Lookout tower is way higher then the one I volunteer at. I bet that area would look killer in the fall. Love the prayer at the end bud! Icing on the cake!

[@DanBecker]

Thanks Jason!! I want to run some stuff past you when you have time.

[@HuckOutdoors]

I'll shoot you a message.

[@TimWatsonOutdoors]

To God be the glory indeed. Sounds like you wanted to break out in song there. :D

[@DanBecker]

If I broke into song, I would’ve gone negative in subscribers 🤣🤣

[@outboundjesse2558]

There’s nothing like spontaneous worship on the trail is there?! Awesome witness bro!

[@jadegoodman6046]

I do my best Thinking while Hiking or working out in the weight room.

[@DanBecker]

Awesome! Thanks David!!

[@stephanmedlin7323]

Dan, I’m not sure if you could ever make it. But if you and your friends find yourself lured to the wonders of the Pacific Northwest. Give me a holler and I would love to guide you all to Enchanted Valley aka The Valley Of a Thousand Falls. That’s were I found Peace and a cure for headaches.

[@GoAdventure83]

This video got me ready for spring. Grass and a lake view that's not frozen sounds heavenly.

[@john_kelley]

Great video! You guys look like you had an awesome time! Loved the end of the end of the video. Perspective is everything.

[@DanBecker]

Thank a ton!!

[@OutLan]

Awesome trip, guys! I love the peninsula. I'm sure Jason was glad I wasn't there to snore him out this time.

[@DanBecker]

🤣🤣🤣 next time you need to come along!!

[@TheWasatchGearReview]

Looked like a fun trip my man. I'm so ready for the snow to melt away into spring I can't stand it!

[@DanBecker]

I am right there with you!

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Vids just get better and better. Cheers Dan ✌

[@DanBecker]

Thanks Edward! I’ve got a lot to learn… I need to start watching some more of your videos to learn some of those sweet editing skills! 🙌🙌

[@kristensteffe690]

Love the vid, I am totally with you.... how can you be out in that beauty and not know God exists?! In the woods is where I feel closest to the Lord.

[@DanBecker]

That’s so cool Kristen! Thanks for the encouragement!

[@dawsonlong6647]

Man, I enjoy your videos so much. And I just love that you expressed your faith so easily! Thanks for doing that man. Your truly awesome!

Thanks, Dawson! I appreciate the encouragement!!!

[@Taylor1989s]

Wow looks like a beautiful hike nice and cool and sunny.

[@southerntrekker]

Yes. My feelings exactly. Enjoying the beauty of nature calms me and brings a closer connection with our creator. I’ve always been amazed that others don’t feel that way.

[@alanblack6761]

Dude! I’ve literally been up that fire tower before! It was so windy and scare but what a rush bro! Encouraged by your faith and joy brother. Keep up the great work!

Awesome hike and a camp by the lake... Wow! Looks like great company as well. Yes, when I get out in the woods / forest. The feeling is nothing short of cleansing and I love it .

[@EarthboundDreamer]

Dan...Brother....THANK YOU for the camp footage. So many channels ignore this most important part of trail life. Well done sir, well done

[@SectionHikingTheAT]

LOVED watching 3 versions of the same hike!! You guys should do this again!! Funny how different the size of your packs are. You’re the only one who showed getting lost! Great job 🧭 I hike alone most of the time so I do a LOT of thinking while I hike and I agree- God does exist and He is definitely there. The beauty of the woods is undeniable. Great hike!

[@DanBecker]

Awesome! Thanks for those encouraging words! Also, yes, I get lost on every hike.. it never fails! Even with a Compass and a GPS!🤣🤣🤣

Hi Dan, finally a great backpacking trip! Lovely video... Thanks for sharing it 👍👍❤️❤️🌳🌳🏕️🏕️

Awesome! I was just sent a link to this video from a friend with the caption, "Make sure you watch it to the end." Man, the last 30 seconds was the best part! Love your desire to commit your lives, channels to the Lord! I'm also a fellow-KZbinr (National Parks) and have come to know Jason Wish through our mutual interests and commitment to Christ. Great video and just subscribed. Keep the faith, brother!

Wow! That is absolutely awesome to hear! Thank you so much for that encouragement! It helps more than you realize! Jason is an awesome guy. I’ve been getting to know him for the past several weeks and we continue to talk along with Jeremiah Stringer daily. I appreciate you watching and I’m definitely going to subscribe to your channel as well!

Looks like such a fun time. The three of you guys filming each other filming each other had me laughing. The sunset shot with you filling water looked awesome.

Thanks Jason!! 😂

It was a great time, Brandyn! I had a blast with you guys!

[@seeksolitude9048]

I am amazed at how many KZbin hikers are from WI and MN! What part of WI are you from? I live near Eau Claire, maybe I will see you out on the trail some time.

[@DanBecker]

Hey Jeff! I’m actually from Kenosha. Who are the other WI and MN KZbinrs?? I hardly know any!! It would be great to learn who they are!!

[@seeksolitude9048]

@@DanBecker I figured you down in the SE since you said you were 6 hours from the Charles Deam Wilderness. My memory for names in really bad so I will look back at who I follow and get back to you about the WI and MN hikers.

[@nobodyhikes]

Being in the backcountry with great company is a fine recipe for good times. That was a solid spot you picked for you hammock. What a fireplace scene you all had!

[@DanBecker]

It was a great spot to camp. We were so fortunate to have the sunset!

[@0zthehikingsailor]

You have been challenged Dan on my debris cleanuo challange. Enjoy eh.

[@asagmeis]

Amen brother. Can’t help feeling closer to God when enjoying his creation. Enjoyed the video.

[@jasonwish-]

Terrific job on the edit! I thoroughly enjoyed watching! Thanks so much for making the long drive from Wisconsin to join us in the woods, it wouldn’t have been the same without you and Mark there! The wife and I are hoping to make a trip up to the Ice Age Trail this summer and will plan to stop in for a visit!

[@DanBecker]

It was a blast, Jason! Can’t wait to do it again! If anyone else is reading this, you need to subscribe to Jason Wish! He’s got an amazing channel!

[@DragonRoams]

Looks like a nice area. That had to be one of the best water scooping shots I've seen.

[@DanRigsby]

Nice! I do an overnight there about once a month. It's the only wilderness in Indiana unfortunately, but always a great time.

[@DanBecker]

Hi Dan! It was my first time there. It’s a pretty amazing place! Are there any other great places to camp there?

[@DanRigsby]

@@DanBecker Being a Wilderness you can camp virtually anywhere. I am usually solo, but there are some great spots. Most of the time i try to just get in as many miles as i can and just setup camp where ever when I get exhausted. There is a small pond on Terrill Ridge Loop that has 3 nice camp sites around it: www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/indiana/terrill-ridge-loop. There is a little cave there as well: www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/indiana/patton-cave-via-grubb-ridge-loop

[@DanBecker]

Awesome! Thanks so much! I’m gonna check that out. I had no idea that this wilderness was even here until about two weeks ago. Nice to know I’ve got another place to hike within a days drive!

[@DanRigsby]

@@DanBecker Shoot me a PM if you ever want company. I am usually solo because its hard to find others. But the Tecumseh Trail (www.alltrails.com/trail/us/indiana/the-tecumseh-trail) and Knobstone Trail (www.hoosierhikerscouncil.org/knobstone-trail/) may also be good trips for you. Both between 40-50 miles, but can be done in sections if you just want to make an overnight out of them. There are plans to unite those 2 trails with a new trail between them to create a ~150 mile trail: indianapublicmedia.org/news/volunteers-work-extend-indianas-longest-hiking-trail-130992/. Indiana just budgeted $90 million for new trails, so there could be some nice options here finally: www.southbendtribune.com/life/travel/outdoor/m-promised-for-indiana-trails-will-we-be-living-the/article_3be44e63-2aac-5e10-bdd1-3c3056b95e27.html

[@ronaldrose7593]

Hello Dan, it is very good to see you out and about with your hiking buddies. You are correct, you need at least one person in the group who possesses good navigational skills. Looks like you gentlemen had a great time. Take care out there and always remain kind and humble. Be safe on the road. 🤗

[@wandawilloughby6052]

I found your channel just recently and want to tell you how much I enjoy. How refreshing to hear someone else say that when they are in the woods they feel God’s presence. So are you going to hike the AT this year.

[@DanBecker]

Hi Wanda! That’s great to hear! 🙌🙌 No, I am a simple section hiker 😂 unfortunately, with three young kids in owning my own business, a massive through hike is not on the agenda anytime in the near future. However, it’s definitely on my bucket list! Thank you so much for the encouragement and thanks for watching!
