Winter Hammock Camping 3 Nights BWCA

[@benf-ld5ve]

Shug you are an awesome teacher, I’m sure there are thousands of hammock campers whose set up was derived from your knowledge. Mine sure was. I’ve boiled water in my kitchen testing my times with store bought and homemade alcohol stoves. While saying “that’s a mighty fine boil right there” Thank you for being a great person and teacher

[@shugemery]

I do enjoy teaching as it forces me to dig in and learn more before passing it on. A Win/Win. Thankee. Ben.

[@youtubesucks8995]

Goodness gracious that’s good eatin’! Whoo buddy!

[@shugemery]

Aww shucks...Thankee....

[@gvlowe75]

*raises hand in "jealous you're out there" I'm sure I'm not alone in living vicariously through your adventures. Making time to reconnect with nature and trusted friends is seemingly the hardest struggle in our current crazy times. *whispers "woo buddy"....... Thanks, Shug, for your great vids.

[@shugemery]

Glad to have made the time to do just that. One must get away to do it it seems.

[@billthesilentwolf]

Wether your talking or not it's just good to see you Shug. I do enjoy your voice and your comedy but most of all I enjoy you and what you do. Blessings to you Shug and your family. You heal up and get your voice back to normal. Loving your videos either way. WOOOOOOOO BUDDY!!!!

[@shugemery]

Thankee so much Bill for the kind words. Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@dumwyteguy]

WE LOVE YOU SHUG!!!

I'm glad he and his stalwart buds let me experience that icebox vicariously...as a son of the deep South, there is no way in hell you'd ever catch me up there. 😊

[@shugemery]

Thankee....

[@AdventureswiththeMarine]

It is good to hear your voice again. A voice of Shug. Is like the howling of a wolf!

[@shugemery]

Hey Marine! When I lost my voice at the WI Hang last year....was the start of this whole vocal cord dilemma. I'll take the howling of a Beagle~~~

[@markgibbs904]

Awesome to have your voice back! Sounds all better. Keep up the good work.

[@shugemery]

Thankee....

[@minierillinoiswatchdog7056]

I'm disable so unable to do this so thanks for taking me along. ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS.

[@shugemery]

Thankee...keep on coming along.

[@OldCootProductReviews]

He speaks! 🙏 I'm sure I speak for a lot of people watching your channel Shug and your videos when I say the following: Every time you do one of these videos, it's like we are right there with you. We experience what you do, we interact with the environment the way that you do, taking it all in. It's all about the experience, and you always have a fun, positive, rewarding one each and every time. It makes us all appreciate what you're doing to share that with your audience. And we appreciate you. Keep doing what you're doing, and welcome back. 🙌

[@shugemery]

Ahh man. Thanks for those warming sentiments. I do look into the lens and hope folks feel they are with me a bit. Try to show joy over sorrow. Whooooo Buddy))))

[@jburdett123]

I'm glad to hear you again Shug. On these longer videos it always makes me happy to have started watching you a few years back. Continued success on the healing road...

[@shugemery]

Thankee and Whooooo Buddy))))

[@terryforbes4038]

Fantastic to hear your voice again. Crazy how your out in the frozen north and I’m here in south Florida having to use a blanket as it’s in the 50’s. Terry&ThePirates South Florida

[@AquaTech225]

Same way in Louisiana. But dreading the melt the concrete heat an the knife cutting humidity to come.

[@shugemery]

A chill is a chill is a chill! We are warming here. Odd year.

[@shugemery]

Spent some time there so I know of what you speak. My shirt was always wet!

[@yobentley7274]

Looks like a great adventure. Thanks for sharing my friend.

[@shugemery]

It was. It sure was.

[@SeMoArtifactAdventures]

Man, I bet it was awesome getting back out there! There is just something about sitting out in the cold eating delicious food with good friends! Cant get enough of it! Thanks for taking us along.

[@shugemery]

I enjoyed the wind and cold immensely! Oh, and the food and friends. Thankee....

[@markscott4881]

Sean (hopefully not too presumptuous) to my ear your voice sounds like it’s smoothed out and slightly lower. Have to say, though your silent movies were a treat, it’s great to have your talkies back.

[@shugemery]

Feels that way to me but of course I'm trying to not push my voice volume. Not as crackly for the most part with the node removed.

[@billjames3148]

gLAD you got out and had fun.

[@shugemery]

Thankee....

[@joesneon]

Your voice is music to our ears.AMAZING creativity with the camera! Excelent angles and love the "peek-a-boos" Well done brother and here's to the Maple King!!! Whooo Buddyyy!!!

[@shugemery]

I'm kinda into the peek-a-boo of late. Just goofy. Thankee Joe. Neon is an wonderful art of light and type.

[@fishntools]

Hail to Shugs vocal cords!

[@shugemery]

They feel good. I will take better care of them now.

[@kmjsuperfly1]

Love that hillbilly pot dents and all. So much character it can almost tell a story just looking at it.

[@shugemery]

It is a but rough and tumble but a fine country pot. Thankee.

[@cmargheimable]

This’ll be me and some hammock forum pals on Stratton pond Vermont in a few days. Can’t hardly wait!

[@shugemery]

Sounds mighty nice. I sure like Vermont.

Those fellers do feel like brothers to me. I love that they enjoy being out as much as I do.

[@davidhughes4785]

As you recuperated, great to have a wife who reads your mind, in case your mimes were falling on deaf ears Wonderful of you, Shug, to share y’all’s frozen lake trek in Minnesota winter. Good to see friends again Thank Woooooo

[@shugemery]

Yes....she "Whoooo Buddied" for me! A rare Meg appearance. Thankee.

[@RickMunday]

LOVED the ending!

[@shugemery]

A rare Meg sighting!

[@MrBadger]

Your videos are a nice gift to humanity Shug, much like that huge meteor was a gift from the universe.

[@shugemery]

Real nice comment MrBadger!!! Good to see you. Wish I had that meteor on film. It was AWESOME!!

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

Back again. Some good eats!😮😊

[@shugemery]

We did eat well.

[@camprainsalot2569]

Great to hear from you SHUG

[@shugemery]

Appreciate that.

[@jessecole7996]

Great to hear a Woo Buddy from the man himself! Glad things are going good for you! Thanks for sharing as always! I also have to say that is some talent sitting the hillbilly pot on the fancy feast and pouring water with out a wipe out! 🤣

[@shugemery]

It is a practiced thing. Nothing more heartbreaking than a hot water/coffee morning spill.

[@christopherpuleo]

Good to hear you again Shug!

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@cribbage]

Sooo jealous of ya'll sitting on that frozen lake!

[@shugemery]

It was a good gift. Take it in. Was needed. Thankee.

[@papinator002]

Not crazy to sit on the lake! Rain, wind, snow... I love the Northwoods; leave a piece of my heart up there every time I go!

[@shugemery]

I’m truly diving deep into sitting and staring at Nature and letting it affect me.

[@nickm9370]

My oh my - it's very good indeed to hear that voice again! Sounding just like you always did, too. Take care, buddy. ❤

[@shugemery]

Same ol' voice. I wanter Jon Hamm's voice...haaaa

[@nickm9370]

Bein' a UK guy (albeit brought up in the US) I had to look him up - but knew him as soon as I did! 😁

[@radarbase]

That was a winter camp for the record books my friend. Thanks for sharing. I loved hearing the ice talking -- you hear that a lot around here too. Like giant electric pinballs bouncing around beneath your feet. It almost makes you want to dash back to shore sometimes 😂 Edit: Oh yeah, it was nice to hear you again too. Of course. Whoo buddy! All the best 🍻

[@shugemery]

That talking ice could be disconcerting if one did not know the deal. Kinda wonderful to hear...all night long!

[@beesinyourmind]

Skills sir, resplendent in your snowy hammock heaven. Keep on keeping on. Great vid 👌

[@shugemery]

Thankee for the good and kind words....Whooooo Buddy))))

[@cliffspicer6555]

Great to hear ya Shug and I never find the thought of watching water boil as entertaining until you do it. Glad to see you healthy and out with the boys . How about an update on Bean. One character I miss from your videos these days. 😢

[@shugemery]

Bean is in Chicago with my daughter's boyfriend. She will be home in a week and misses Bean dearly. He is good!

[@douglasdoucette7352]

Great to see you're recovering well from your surgery, Shug. This video was just what I needed for my soul since I've not been able to get any winter camping & backpacking this year - mother was hospitalized in December, got a new puppy in January & traveling extensively for ice hockey & for work in February. The BWCA looks like a fabulous natural area in all seasons.

[@shugemery]

My good thoughts coming your way and to your Mother. Backing will be there for you when time opens up.....

[@miker5502]

First in line to watch Shug! Cheers from Nova Scotia, MikeR. OMG…you got you voice back..Yipee!

[@shugemery]

Thankee and keep it secure in Sector Nova 'eh.

[@richwallace4632]

Whooooo buddy, I bet that morning constitution was rough.😂😂😂 Good to hear ya again.

[@shugemery]

It was actually a pleasure!

[@RickMunday]

Glad to hear your voice again. Looks like a great trip! That's the best part of car camping and winter camping. You just bring in all of the stuff you want to make it a super comfortable trip. I was hoping to get out and hot tent this winter, But with work demands I was not able to go. So once again I'm living vicariously through you.

[@shugemery]

The pulls work great Winter camping does require more gear, insulation and is ten times the work of regular 3 season camping. There is always next year for but maybe could still happen.....

[@tomberglund1423]

Great to hear your voice again

[@shugemery]

Thankee....

[@RobDekkers]

Nice to see and hear you again Shug! Loved the video, especially your talk about being happy out there with Jonah and Alex.

[@shugemery]

Truly was. I did not know I needed some fellowship as badly as I did. Thankee.

[@Outsideville]

Good to hear ya, sir.

Really enjoyed watching this, as I always do. Think I had a smile on my face the whole time too! Thank you for bringing us along again Shug! 🙂

[@shugemery]

Righto. Thankee.

[@ToddStull]

I remember my grandmother making a country egg pie similar to that but now I know this weekend I think I'm going to make a real smooth egg custard pie!

[@shugemery]

Yum!!!!! I'll need a full report on that.

Great to see a new video. Hope you’re doing great. Count myself as someone who rekindled my youth love of camping,hiking and backpacking after stumbling on your videos. You’re the #1 hammock camping Sherpa. I cannot say how much I value your content.

[@shugemery]

I do appreciate you watching and your good words. Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@Flux_Flow]

There must have been a planetary alignment for all 3 of you to make camp together. Great to see Alex, been too long.

[@shugemery]

We did stargaze at night so I agree with you. Thankee.

[@Osgkar]

great to hear you again shug!

Thankee....

[@earacer2560]

Hey shug! Good to hear your voice again. I just spent a couple days skiing at lutsen and all I could think about was the SHT and how much I wanted to be hiking and sleeping in my superior gear hammock! Great to see you out again on KZbin!

[@shugemery]

Must have been painful to be so close! ....haaaaa

[@mnmikeoutdoors8595]

I loves the shot with the camera on the ice. Also the big visit to the moon. I’ve heard the ice groaning and talking this year like no year I remember in the past. I guess because of not as much snow. I absolutely am envious of the fun y’all had out there.

[@shugemery]

That camera will really moon-zoom! Same hear. Never heard it groan and talk and bang so much. We had it all night as a haunting serenade. This was really a fun trip. So much.

[@dmc2087]

Whooo Buddy great hearing you talking again ! missed the Shug quick lip lol.

[@shugemery]

I've never heard of the likes of Mt Man camping. Historical gear? Like re-enactment. Sounds very interesting.

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

Yay old gear for the most part. We will have mixed gear and people so they can get an introduction. When we Trek, that’s when we go old style. Take care

The Birch King was honoring the Maple king...in a cheeky way!

[@MiyagiontheTrail]

I know the exact feeling you’re talking about being out there and engaging in those deep conversations. Sometimes it’s nice to let your guard down and just be Sean and Brad. A whooo buddy & fist bumps to you my friend ~ Miyagi

It was majestic out there. I am doing some vocal rest this week as it is a regular ol' week for me. Thankee.

[@daven953]

Well, to answer your question. You are crazy and I envy your lake hammock camping. Never change. Love your vids, and it's your fault I spent all that money getting rigged out for winter hammock camping. Thanks Shug, good to hear from you.
