Backpacking the Buffalo River Trail: Part Two - Exploring Nature and History

[@heyeverybody5616]

Young man you have inspired my wife and I to do the hike. We live about an hour and a half from the Buffalo river. We are 57 and 60 years of age. Ain’t no hill for a mountain climber!

That's fantastic! I hope you enjoy the trail!

Thank you for picking up the trash.

[@WanderingBlock]

No problem. For I'm thankful that's one of the only places I noticed litter on trail (other than Busch Light cans along the gravel road 😒)

[@FF7824]

Another nice one. Thanks.

[@gabrielstumbaugh1891]

This is awesome. My summer goal is to hike the entire trail. I'm glad I'll have this video for reference.

[@WanderingBlock]

Awesome! I hope you'll enjoy the trail!

[@ibdaffy]

Great scenery, you kept it interesting and you have a great attitude! Thank you for taking the time and effort to share with us. Happy trails!

[@WanderingBlock]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😁

[@ScottymanPhoto]

Beautiful place! Thank you for making these videos! It's nearly as good as being there!

[@WanderingBlock]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it and appreciate the kind words.

Great video

[@StephenPatrickPope]

Really enjoyed the video! I’m in north Texas and hope to get over to hike it myself one day soon! Nice work.

[@WanderingBlock]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it, Buffalo River is an amazing area, it'd definitely be worth the drive. First time I hiked this trail with my brother back in 2016 we met a group all the way from Pennsylvania!

I loved all the waterfalls. The BRT is so beautiful. Good job.

[@WanderingBlock]

The waterfalls definitely made the rain at camp worth it. Thanks!

[@angieb6591]

Congratulations on finishing BRT! So proud of you. 😊

[@Angies-adventures]

Really digging your music choices! BTW, I took your advice in a previous video on the waterfall book by Tim Ernst. Great tip, thanks!

[@WanderingBlock]

Nice, it was my favorite book when we lived in the Ozarks. Hope you get a lot of great experiences out of it! Also thanks for the compliment on music choices, I can be picky and sometimes it's the most tedious part of editing 😅

Awesome seeing that trail again which i have been on in dry fall conditions.. Cool seeing various aspects of the park throughout the seasons on your episodes so much non stop beauty!!!

[@highlandexplorer990]

Looks like an amazing trail. Have a great day 😀

[@WanderingBlock]

Thank you. It's a very nice trail!

[@charlesnaff9116]

Nice video - what are the water containers you are using and how are you filtering water ?

[@johntuttle4486]

Some people think that aluminum will burn. Funny, I still have my 43 y.o. aluminum cookpot, it hasn't burned yet!

[@thinkmakepush]

loved these 2 videos! hopefully i can do this trail someday soon! are you on alltrails?

[@WanderingBlock]

I have an Alltrails subscription so I can download maps onto my phone but I don't do any recordings or anything. Thanks for watching the videos, glad you enjoyed them!

[@tiegur33]

How much food, and what kind, did you pack?

[@WanderingBlock]

One freeze dry meal per day for dinner, tuna pouch and tortillas/bread for lunch; and beef jerky, trail mix, peanut crackers, sugary snacks with my meals and in between. I usually bring enough food for an extra night just in case the hike takes longer than expected.
