VIRTUAL Scenic Drive in the REDWOODS | Driving Northern CALIFORNIA in JEEP WRANGLER with Top Down
This was the most scenic drive I've ever experienced, and it takes viewers through the heart of The Redwoods and some of the largest Old Growth forests I've ever seen. From Howland Hill Road, to the Redwood Highway and Redwood National Park, this VIRTUAL drive will hopefully give you the same sense of magic and wonder that I had while cruising through them in a jeep wrangler with the top down, through scenic Northern California. The Redwoods are the tallest trees on earth, with some of them dating back more than a couple thousand years. I always love backpacking, and of course searching for Bigfoot, but I will always be obsessed with a truly scenic drive! So join me for some scenic relaxation, and take a virtual drive through the Redwoods!
Down the line, I will have more hiking, backpacking, and Bigfoot content as I am currently planning several trips.

SOLO Backpacking ADIRONDACKS in November | Overnight Adventure in the Siamese Ponds Wilderness

This was an easy, solo but wonderful overnight backpacking trip I did in The Siamese Ponds Wilderness in the Adirondacks of upstate New York. The Siamese Ponds Wilderness is larger than any National Forest on the East Coast, and the same goes for many other wilderness areas that make up The Adirondack Preserve. The Adirondacks are absolutely massive, and a truly wild and beautiful area. Hiking ...

    Well, I spend my time in the middle of nowhere fly fishing. There’s nothing wrong with being out and surrounded by nature. If the Sasquatch legend draws you out into such beautiful places in the same way that the chance of a salmon or big trout does when I’m fly fishing, there’s no harm in that.

    Alaskan, here! 🙋🏻‍♀️Something easy to remember in re the grizzly/ brown bear terminology: Grizzly is used inland/interior (they have limited access to food & are typically smaller & more aggressive). Brown bear is used for coastal. They are bigger because they have access to a more varied diet…salmon, clams, hedge grass, etc. Happy travels & I’m happy you love my beautiful state.

    You mean you were in the area where they filmed a man in a Bigfoot suit. There is no such creature as Bigfoot, most people that say that they have saw one are either liars or mistaking another animal as Bigfoot. If all the people that claim to have seen them there would be tens of thousands of them roaming North America. Just a bunch of phonies trying to make money off of thisB.S.

It's supposed to be about your trip. Your chick is with you on your trip so it's supposed to show both of you enjoying your trip, not just you. Maybe for your videos in the future be a little bit more open-minded cuz it's really stupid to watch a guy trying to be somebody while his chick is in the tent waiting for her turn for something.

    Hi Mike! I used to hike a lot in The White Mountains of NH. Your videos are fun, peaceful and I like when you share safety and helpful tips. Due to my schedule of work in the medical field I had a difficult time finding people to go with me but it was always an adventure. I’m older now and have had to stop for quite awhile due to a medical issue. You should try the Great Gulf Wilderness area coming down from Mt. Adams. There are tent platforms there and one time I came down with severe hypothermia coming down from Mt. Adams in the rain and would never had made it out but two other women camping nearby let me stay with them and saved my butt big time. It’s so beautiful there. You mention being afraid of various things well the three of us were in their tent and all night long these unknown animals kept jumping onto the tent platform and circling around the tent and I mean all night. The tent platform would shake and bounce a bit when they walked around the tent and when jumping off and on. They made no sound and the minute we tried to open the tent to see what they were, poof! Gone. I don’t know if they were large raccoons, bears or the infamous BF but it was sure interesting. The Kancamangus area is so pretty. I also like the AMC huts. Very nicely maintained and gives you a destination and a break if you don’t want to stay in a lean-to etc. I feel inspired to try some trails again at some point. I loved the Adirondacks video. That was beautiful. I drove right past that wilderness area before. So wild and beautiful there. I’m always looking forward to more of your videos. 🌙🏕️⛰️

    Great video Mike. Super brave too. Not sure how many viewers get out and do this. But it can be pretty scary being that deep into the wilderness by yourself. Especially knowing what animals are 100% there for sure. When you said "Maybe I don't want to know what's out there!' I felt that. Also you said "you would need to be out there for a while." I almost think a person would have to go darn near feral. For maybe even a few months. I think he knows you're there and exactly where you. If he in fact exists. You would have to really adapt and blend in. Throw him off your scent if you will. lol Very cool video. Be safe and keep up the great work.
