Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the two of you and your family

[@davidbrytowski4477]

I really enjoy your content. Telling a story to a phone is a real kill. I can't even leave a message without stammering. I can't tell my aspen from a hole in a birch.

[@KRT045]

Always dropping knowledge, from how to read the clouds to predict the weather to telling differences between Aspen and Birch trees. You guys are literal fountains of information and I appreciate you sharing with us through your videos. Thank you!

[@gonagain]

Thanks for that!

[@jackbevan2568]

A is for Aspen B is for Birch LOL. Thanks for a great adventure and light humor.

[@jimv.661]

Yeah! I win again!

[@gonagain]

You are a winner, Jim.

[@jimv.661]

Make sure to pass it around. I can use all the good press I can get.

[@davefrysinger8445]

The difference between Aspen and Birch, very good and interesting way. See like I said, watch these two, they will teach you something in these great videos.

[@carlburns4343]

Amazing footage, love the rivers and the Aspen tree, Having a cargo trailer built right now and will be traveling this summer, I am a new to this and looking forward to getting on the road and hoping to meet you two one day. ✌

[@gonagain]

Hope your cargo build goes smoothly. If you do see us anywhere, be sure to say hello!

[@chadflanigan3791]

I love aspen trees as the leaves turn yellow with the sun persuading their golden glory.

[@ROHDESONTHEROAD]

Love waking up to you all. Wind can be evil, but since I use a wind turbine with solar, I kinda rely on it. Linda needs to have a camping cooking channel. One pot cooking is the simplest. Telling the difference between Aspen and Birch is easy as ABC or like the Fonz AAAAAAA

[@gonagain]

Now, that's a good idea on the camping cooking channel. Thanks, Scott!

[@stevenpike8237]

Telling the difference between an Aspen and a Birch tree is as easy as ABC's

[@ernestpaul2484]

Rick, a friend and myself drove out of Alaska in February of 82' when I changed duty stations to Georgia. That is 1982, not 1882. We entered the States out of Canada at a crossing in Montana. It was the evening and already dark. Snow was every where. The wind was blowing so hard it was almost a complete whiteout. I found out real quick that the weather striping for my driver's door in my 75' K5 Blazer needed replacing. I had built a plywood framed wall with insulation between the seat backs and the rear cargo area before the trip out from Fairbanks to keep the heat up front. That worked well enough, except the door side of my left leg was rather chilly in that Montana wind.

[@gonagain]

That's really interesting and we can relate to that. It can really cold here and the wind doesn't stop howling.

[@mikestallbaumer6259]

Glad to see you guys living up your golden years rather than letting them waste away sitting at home like so many people do. Who would have guessed it would have been as easy as ABC to tell the difference between an Aspen and a Birch tree.

[@rt2va8]

That's a great trick to be able to tell the difference between an aspen and a birch tree.

[@jasperfranklin5116]

Never knew it was as easy as your ABCs to tell an aspen from a birch. That's fascinating.

[@mmkiehn]

"Easy as ABC, on Aspen trees their trunks are loaded with A's." Your video's of Montana resurrect a certain feeling of being a free spirit. Thanks!

[@thomaskaiser6067]

Knowing the difference between an Aspen and a Birch... Guess The Rockey Mountains have their own education system.

[@KrishnaKrishna-bj7nf]

Aspen and Birch are as easy as ABC to identify ! Thank You for another beautiful and educational experience ! 🌺🙏

[@frankb5686]

I didn't know you could tell an aspen tree from a birch tree so easily.

[@1956bennettful]

It's as easy as ABC to tell the difference between a Aspen and a Birch tree love your videos

[@tynancravy5589]

Thanks for showing the difference between an aspen and a birch.

[@psl53]

Telling an Aspen tree is as easy as ABC look for the A's

[@ranchsailor721]

Thank you both for sharing all your travels! Enjoy every one, and your funny interaction with each other! Love it when you pray. God does direct and protect us. Have fun, be safe and Blessings to you!

Identifying an aspen from a birch is as easy a A-B-C 😎👍🏼

[@gaillarson6145]

Great to learn that telling the difference between Aspen and a birch tree is as easy as ABC

[@RV_Tips_Tricks_Travel]

Who would have thought that telling a Aspen from a Birch was as easy as your ABC's! Thanks.

[@donnaslecz7600]

[@gonagain]

Good morning, Donna!

[@fourfly8278]

There was a time I could tell a aspen from a birch, but I haven't seen a birch tree in decades.

[@randalljurrens5710]

Who knew identifying Aspen and Birch trees was as easy as ABC!

[@dhu1042476]

Aspens and Birch!!..and a magnificent waterfall. Thank You!!

[@stevencarey4215]

Rick, I grew up hunting and at 62 I still am but your right nothing about it is cheap. Listen to the a story on Aspen trees is something I never knew. And thinking about where you were camped I realized that elk , grizzly and aspen go to get her like bacon and eggs.

[@lutherthompson5585]

How to tell an Aspen from a Birch, easy as ABC

[@conniewilliams8160]

Telling an aspen from a birch tree is as easy as ABC. I enjoyed the video!

[@capjim5903]

As easy as your A B C's to tell an Aspen from a birch tree . Thank you and that one pot meal LOOKED WONDERFUL

[@triciarochyby6392]

I loved learning how to tell a Burch tree from a Aspen tree...it was easy as ABC!

[@jlrilea3083]

I was raised on a farm and never knew about the A's on Aspen trees. I guess it is as easy as ABC's. Thanks again for all you share.

[@harryleisure2758]

Never heard of Aspen trees having an a on them. I guess it's as easy as ABC's to teach an old dog new tricks.

[@vickikielman2798]

You are right, telling an aspen from a birch is as easy as knowing your ABC'S. That's what I like about your videos. I always learn a new trick or two. Can't wait for your next adventure.

[@SuzanneWho]

As easy as ABC : Telling an aspen from a birch! 😁

[@antoneros]

As easy as ABC, 22:44. I didn't know the ABC rule for identifying an Aspen. Thanks. Good information.

[@leecates862]

Your reference to "As easy as ABC" is how you can tell an aspen from a birch by the A on aspen tree trunks. It is as easy as ABC.

[@scotschmidt6683]

Nothing like education with beauty all around. The A on a Aspen tree was interesting. How many of us never noticed this when walking through the forest.

[@brucefrye2292]

Hey guys good video, Big Horns, Black Hills, Guernsey and Glendo, are our stomping grounds so far. Borrowed your idea of the one burner stove in a fold up section of my indoor trailer table, and made a two holer fold down attachment for the outside. Saves needing a table at all! Oh, bye the way, you need to nickname Linda little wolverine! They go over a mountain before they'll ever go around one

[@jonkirkwood469]

I learned how to tell an aspen from a birch using my ABCs.

[@jstone4351]

Aspen and Birch, Birch and Aspen, I'd still get them confused.

[@sarah_n_tank_girl]

I was never told about the difference between Birch and Aspen. Aspen trees being covered in A's...as easy as A, B, C's. I do know most groves of Aspens are all one plant. It spreads with rhizomes... a lot like wild strawberries. Aspens are probably one of the most interesting tree species out there... so glad to have a little more knowledge about them! I love all the tidbits I learn watching you two. And I have a one pot spaghetti meal I always do the 1st night camping with my kids (now teens)...that's how they know were camping.

[@gonagain]

Thanks for commenting, Sarah. Linda just made a one-pot spaghetti two nights ago! It's especially easy in an Instapot, which she uses for a lot of things.

[@tomknoll2919]

Telling an aspen from a birch didn't even know that you could identify aspens that way sounds like an interesting spot thanks for the videos Tom and Cindy

[@thejefe19]

You learn something new everyday like telling the the difference between Aspen and Birch trees which is easy as ABC! Thanks for always sharing your knowledge with us!

[@mhayes6864]

“A” for aspen! Who knew! I have a chuckle w God’s humore in His creations!

[@StratRider]

I was almost upset that they didn't teach us in boy scouts this simple way to tell the Aspen from a Birch. Thanks for teaching me that one.

[@dawnmtwild5409]

My youngest son was born in Great falls as I was working on a ranch near cut bank and settled in Cascade for a little bit till he was born that was 40 some years ago. Ivan Doig "this house of sky "was a go-to book I packed a lot in my saddlebag and I also liked "ride with me Mariah Montana".

[@gonagain]

Thanks for sharing, you must know this part of the country well. Stay warm and Merry Christmas!

[@terriphillips8696]

All these years looking at the 'A' on the aspen trees, I never knew it was as easy as ABC!

[@jamsessionrecordshop8343]

Gonagain and Adventure vanman are 2 of the best youtube channels!

[@rickthomas3580]

Aspen, Birch, and Coffee.... Easy as A B C.... I like to add another C ..... Chair lol ..I never knew Aspen trees had A's thanks for the info... Setting in a chair drinking coffee watching The Breeze blow through the trees is a peaceful easy feeling...

[@s.magdaleneard9605]

They say you're never too old to learn something. Been around Aspen trees for years but never knew you could recognize them by the A on the trunk. So that's how you tell the difference between a Birch tree and an Aspen. In my opinion, there's nothing prettier than Aspen colors in the fall.

[@mrmarty7199]

When I was 19 years old (42 yes ago) I climbed-and trimmed trees for a contracting company that worked underneath large powerlines in Pennsylvania. Tough labor. Very hot in the summer. Cold in the winter 🥶 We always dealt with many maples, oaks, & some chestnut & white birch at times. I never saw any aspens in my neck of the woods thou,,,,,but easy as ABC, now I’ll know for sure. Thanks for taking us along on your journeys and I truly enjoy your informative storytelling.✌️

[@gonagain]

Thank you, Mr Marty!

[@Tasticbill]

Telling Aspens from Birch is now as easy as ABC’s thank you! Great adventures.

[@Mike66Cruiser]

[@joetaylor7707]

An aspen tree has the A,s on it and the bark doesnt come off as easy as the Birch tree ! Thats been the ABC,s of tree Id for years !

[@jamesanderson2099]

fall is the best time in Montana I live near the Crazy Mountains so I go crazy when ever I feel like a good hike

[@Tori1401]

"Aspen or Birch" never knew! Now I know it's as "EASY AS ABC". What a beautiful place. Bears are scary. When a bear is seen here everyone is alerted by Law Enforcement to keep everyone safe. Thank you for the nice video.

[@drewpackman2929]

When Linda has her hat off you can see how pretty she really is. She is always covered up with her hat.

[@gonagain]

Thank you, Drew! ~Linda

[@albertserpa257]

As easy as ABC, interesting way to identify aspen trees. As a retired forester I probably knew that at one time. I have to travel vicariously through channels like yours so I really enjoy seeing the interesting places you find just exploring off road places. Thanks.

[@victoriamaaske7420]

I love to read Ivan Doug, soo poetic with his language and GREAT story teller of Montana.

[@glenschumannGlensWorkshop]

Another way I have heard of is "Aspens alone, birches bunch"

[@ptaing8]

Now I know the difference between Aspen and Birch by seeing the A's on the bark! 🙂 truly as easy as ABC!

[@1shcole]

Easy as ABC , now I know how to tell an Aspen from a Birch tree. I love Aspens ! You and Linda are such an inspiration . Thank you for sharing your adventures and knowledge.

[@shirleyhall1259]

How to tell an aspen from a birch. Easy as a b c. I learned something new!! Montana is one of my favorite states! So beautiful! My husband and I lost our hunting spot last year to progress. So many housing developments are going up around here close to Myrtle Beach. A friend graciously allowed us to hunt his unused farm land. We were so grateful because we enjoy hunting and filling our freezer. The best thing is that it's only 5 minutes away from home. 😊. We are fortunate.

[@gonagain]

We used to hunt on a friends land for white tails but stopped when the deer population was struggling. Our son in law graciously shares his elk each year so we're fortunate that way. We do miss hunting.

[@shadowcastre]

Rick & Linda are out roaming around again..! :-) The Aspen trees and Rock city are awesome. Thanks for the video...

[@livingandlovingit4206]

Thanks for adding , that ain't gonna happen ! I got old so started hunting smaller critters like bunny rabbits and squirrels.

My wife and I have been to the Rocky's camping in our younger days but have something new to learn from you younger folks going back to my A.B.C's for natures own Aspen trees. Hope you keep this up as nothing is finer then being in nature.

[@willlockler9433]

Easy as ABC! I kept waiting for the B on the birch! Beautiful mountain colors.

[@lindaballard]

I did not know Aspens have an A on their bark and that is how you tell the difference between an Aspen from Birch trees. You both are so refreshing to watch and learn from on your adventures. Blessing this Christmas!!!
