Great trip! Loved that sunset. I’ve never kayak camped before but it’s something I’m planning on doing at some point in the future.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

It’s so nice my friend. Nothing much better than being on the water on a hot day. I really think you’d enjoy it.

[@MeetMeOutside]

Good time ! Love the lake life ! Although I much rather use my canoe ! Cheers !

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I’d like to try the canoe out. I’ve only been in canoes for two people. Never solo. I’m really wanting to come next summer for a canoe trip with you and Justin.

[@MeetMeOutside]

@@BackpackingWithJason Nothing wrong with kayaks, I’ve owned a couple in the past. I’ve always been a canoe guy. , I find them way easier to get in and out of, and loading and unloading is way easier. That would be really fun if you could join us ! Cheers

[@JoshHerodOutdoorAdventures]

That looked like a lot of fun. Been wanting to do some kayak camping.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

You’d love it Josh. I have an extra kayak if you ever want to do a weekend trip

[@TravelTourTaste]

Hey bro great to see you again. I love kayaking but it's been about 5 years. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. Stay safe and catch up again real soon bro.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks. There’s something so peaceful being in a kayak on the water.

That was an amazing spot for sunset. Boy the colors were remarkable. Fishy fingers 🤣🤣that dinner looked amazing it's great to have that fan too. I like the lake life. Heading to the sierra this weekend and backpacking to Garnet lake and thousand island lake plus Davis lakes cathedral lakes.. going from Agnew meadows to tuolumne meadows

[@BackpackingWithJason]

That sounds awesome Nicole. I’ve seen a video on Thousand Island Lake. Looks so beautiful there. Have fun!!

[@MarisolsAdventures]

this is awesome! i am so relaxed after watching this video. i like kayaking as well.. need to do more this summer

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks my friend. I love the water so much during summertime. And kayaking is so much fun

[@RVAHikerGirl]

I think you know where all the good spots are on that lake! HA HA! You are a man after my own heart with that fan! Don't laugh but I sleep with a fan app on my phone just for the fan noise when camping. Now I just need to figure out how to get the breeze from my phone. I sure need to get me one of those fans!

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Oh my goodness I wish they had an app for the fan breeze to come out of the phone. That would be awesome. I love bringing that little fan. It runs on usb , no batteries. It’s so lightweight too.

[@matthewkingoutdoors]

Loving your videos Jason... good to see actual outdoors videos instead of talking head videos that the others post more of. Keep it up!

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks Matthew. I like to show gear , but I like to show it out in the woods. Have a good day my friend

[@redwhiteblue7831]

Nice... Looks very cool on the lake. Great views. Never trust one of your boys when they say... "smell this" Great looking food too... Loved it. Keep it up. I've never been kayak camping, but definitely would. 👌 Thank you for sharing. Take care Jason. 🇺🇲

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I agree 100 percent. When a friend says smell this “Hell No” 😂😂😂

[@Silkstep]

I prefer paddling a solo canoe to carry the gear for me along the beautiful Missouri rivers and camping on the many gravel bars. That pork loin looked delicious. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. :)

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks Ron. Have you ever canoed the Red River at the Gorge. I haven’t, but I’m wondering what it would be like

[@Silkstep]

@@BackpackingWithJason I have not. Yet... I'd love to do a Spring float at The Gorge. I own 3 canoes I can bring, and with a second vehicle and public access, we could do it. :D

I hope all is well your way my friend. Give KODA a dog treat for me. 😁

[@BlueLineAdventures]

A group of us hit the Green River outside of a Louisville for some kayak camping a few years back. It was a pretty good time. PFDs always, so thanks for helping to make it cool. Also…I’m getting one of them fans now…lol. I didn’t know I needed one until now.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I love Green River. Beautiful area. That little fan is awesome. Light weight and USB port. No batteries. Perfect for those hot summertime nights. I hang it right in my hammock or tent. Have a good weekend 👍🏻

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

That is an awesome camping spot on a beautiful lake. Fishing isn’t actually always about catching fish , it’s more about being out there enjoying Nature.. You caught a beautiful sunset and that’s good enough for me. Nice relaxing time out there Jason , I gotta get out and camp from my yak this Fall……and of course you was happy eating that good looking dinner. Cheers. Good message about wearing your PFD, never go out without mine.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

You are so right about fishing. It’s all about being out there and enjoying nature.

[@SeniorHiker77]

You living the good life Jason. It's even better with good friends. 👍

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I agree 100 percent. I’m very blessed my friend.

[@TylerCampbellOutdoors]

Love the lake. Typically hit Norris each summer, just not this year due to backpacking trips. I have yet to kayak camp, but it is definitely on the list.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I love Norris Lake. Freaking beautiful out there. Thanks Tyler and have a good day 👊🏻

[@tonyabrowninghikes]

Looks like a great time! I'm hoping to try kayak camping with some friends soon! If you come to Indiana check out lake Monroe. Beautiful campsites on the Lakeshore. You can also hike in on the peninsula trail and camp on the lake. Been a couple times and it's amazing!

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks for the tip. That’s the first time I’ve heard of Lake Monroe. Sounds like a beautiful area. I love those areas where you can backpack or kayak to camping spots. Have a fun day Tonya

[@tonyabrowninghikes]

@@BackpackingWithJason your welcome. I've got a couple videos from the peninsula trail. The lake is beautiful!

[@DragonRoams]

Busy water but you ended up with a nice spot. I like to kayak but have yet to paddle and camp. Not many local places good for that but there are some great ones in NY.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

You’d love it. Maybe one summer you can come down and we do some kayaking together. I have an extra one 😁👍🏻

[@redshepherdoutdoors7201]

Nothing beats sunset over the lake! I love lake life as well - boating, skiing, fishing, swimming, and just relaxing are some of our summertime favorites. I’ve done some Jon Boat camping in the past. Planning a kayak /canoe camping trip in the fall. Enjoyed watching. Lake Cumberland looks beautiful

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks. Lake Cumberland is really beautiful. People come from all over the USA to this lake.

[@kyridgejumper]

Great video man and looked like some good company. You guys need to check out the far eastern side of Kentucky lol

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I agree. I need to do more of that area. I grew up in Floyd Co. stayed on the Big Sandy River everyday. My roots are eastern Kentucky but I live in Lexington nowadays. Never lost my Floyd Co accent though 😂😂

[@kyridgejumper]

@@BackpackingWithJason awesome man I am in Pike county I always stayed in that river or in Fishtrap growing up Definitely need to do it more often now a days Thanks for the videos

[@BackpackingWithJason]

My brother has been County Clerk in Floyd for about the last 25 years. Chris Waugh. I love pikeville. I was right in the middle of paintsville and pikeville. Love all those counties

[@kyridgejumper]

@@BackpackingWithJason cool I have heard his name Wild how you find people in different places and different walks of life that you never knew but knew of friends or family

[@BackpackingWithJason]

[@PierreFarrugia]

Nice, right now I switch either kayak or underground here it’s 40’c in the shade. I never tried Kayak camping but wish too, but I think it’s too hot to camp here .

[@BackpackingWithJason]

When it gets hot , I love getting in some water and my kayak.

[@LezleysAdventures]

i got one of those fans, i put it in the car as i don't have air con lol

😂😂. Tim and Nicole, you two have a great day

[@tree_riot]

Nice ! I need a good basic kayak that I can strap some gear to. Any suggestions? I want to do a Green River to Mammoth Cave trip

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I like Emotion kayaks for budget or Old Town have great kayaks but a little more expensive. I’d like to check out Mammoth Cave area.

[@tree_riot]

@@BackpackingWithJason heck yeah! Thx brother. I’ll be checking those out.

[@CasualGirlAdventures]

Beautiful camping spot, A little advice. You actually want the water to be a little wavy so the fish don't see you, Sounds weird but it makes a big difference. someone told us this and we tried and both ways and it truly works, don't need to be heavy just ripples or small waves. hope this helps next time. what a beautiful sunset nd sunrise. Love the lake life , come up here to Ely Nevada and lets go fishing together.

[@BackpackingWithJason]

Thanks for the invite my friend. I love this lake. Truly beautiful. People come from all over the south to come to this lake. We definitely found a good spot. Thanks for watching my friend and have a great week

[@KentuckyWoodsman]

Hard to beat kayaking and camping on the lake! Looked you two had a primo camping spot on Cumberland! How was the fishing?

[@BackpackingWithJason]

I had a couple of bites at nighttime, but didn’t catch anything. Only fished for about an hour. Sure was beautiful out there
