“EPIC KAYAKING ADVENTURE GONE WRONG:MY BROKEN ANKLE STORY”
This is a trip we take every year. Start at Station Camp Tennessee and end up at Blue Heron Kentucky. The water levels were really low on this trip which slowed the water down but made Devils Jump extremely hard. I broke my ankle on the first day. I thought I sprained it but it was a lot worse than that. Please watch my journey as I try and finish my trip.

Thank goodness you had Jeremiah there to rescue, I mean film you! 😂
Looking to try this maybe this weekend. Looking at a 16 mile loop that goes to the peninsula and back. Is it worth the two hour drive to do this? Thanks buddy.
I liked it. Beautiful scenery around the lake. Lots of firewood and some nice camping spots.
Get well soon my friend Jason. I got injury too on my right foot ankle almost 3 years ago and still I feel the pain but its only a sprain....
Thank you. I’m healing up. I still can’t walk on it but it’s getting better each day.
WoW! That’s Incredibly Awesome And Breathtaking Adventure! Cheers!🥂🤩❤️✨
Thank you. It sure was a lot of fun
glad you were able to complete the trip but wow that looks bad. sorry you had to deal with the pain and everything else /ow that hook!// but looks like you made the best of it, beautiful river to paddle on thanks for sharing
I love that river. Usually do this trip a couple of times a year. Still can’t believe I broke my ankle. Definitely a trip I’ll never forget
👍🏼👍🏼
Now we know how it all happened.... incredible..... So glad you are healing up from this now..
Thank you Nicole. I can’t wait to get back to the woods 😁
Crazy how you were able to continue with the rest of the trip Jason! Hope you’re healing up fast!
I’m healing up my friend. Even though I broke my ankle it was still a great trip. It’s usually one of my favorite trips of the year.
Man. You’re so metal! Don’t mind me, I’m just conquering the wilderness with a broken ankle. Wishing you a speedy recovery brother.
Thanks brother 👊🏻. I’m healing up one day at a time. Can’t wait to get back out in the woods.
Oh heck no on the river running for me. I'll take my chances with a broken ankle on land. My water phobia governs my adventures! LOL. Sorry you got injured. Looks definitely like a break. Good thing you had some ice. Hope you heal up quick! I shattered my wrist once while backpacking. No fun but a leg or foot would be worse for sure. Never see a paddle tent before. Nice adaptation. Hook in the hand and sinking boats. This trip was plagued! LOL. Glad you all survived. Great memories and a trip to remember. Have a great day.
I think we were plagued Steve. lol. Lots of craziness on this trip. You never know what the river will give you. Have a great weekend my friend
Hardcore self rescue and still enjoyed the trip.
It’s a trip I’ll never forget. Have a great weekend my friend
OK... That was one badass video... Sorry about the ankle... Both of my injuries, knee and shoulder... happened while kayaking... What a fun, awesome crazy adventure. You rocked that trip even with the injury... Heal up fast brother... I can hear the trail calling you. Peace
Thank you. I try and do this section of the river every year. Sometimes it’s my favorite trip of the year. Beautiful and fun area for kayaking. Have a great weekend and I can hear the trail calling my name too 😁
Heal up, bud! I enjoyed your trip report on the Backpacking Podcast.
Thank you. It’s always a lot of fun going on there podcast. I’m healing up 😁. Have a fun weekend
Dang, dude! I could see that it was broken, soon as you showed your foot! That Hiking Guy was real nice to send you that sticker. That's cool. You should've had one of those horses ride you outta there. They would've felt like cowboys, riding you out to safety. 😊 of course, then you wouldn't have the memories of kayaking. Oh, 😬🤢 I can't handle people being hooked and pulling it out. Nope. 🤢 You sank. Goodness. Glad your gear stayed dry! Is that Mrs. BW Jason? Nice bonnet! 😄 I hope you're healing up good, buddy. That must've hurt like hell. Great video! 😁💚👊
That was Ms.Backpacking 😊. She has helped me so much during this. She’s the best. It was definitely a trip I’ll never forget. I thought about the horses helping me out but I thought it would be easier to paddle out than horseback 😁. Have a great day my friend
Jason you are on tough SOB! How quickly an adventure can change but thank goodness for your buddies. Beautiful area and looked like fun though even with that spill at the end. I always pinch the barbs on my hooks to make it easier to remove if the situation occurs. I wish you a speedy recovery Brother!
Thank you my friend. Even though I got hurt I still had a blast on the river. I have so many great memories on that river and I can’t wait to get back out there again. That’s a great idea to pinch the barbs on the hooks. It was definitely a wild weekend on the River 😁
Man hate to see you get injured but you took it like a champ! Sure made the best of it! Praying for quick recovery bud!
Thank you and I’ll definitely take the prayers. I always have so much fun on this river. Lots of good memories
You're a tough dude to complete the trip like that. I wish you a speedy recovery!
Thank you Ryan. Even though I broke my ankle on this trip,it was still a great time. I’ve got so many great memories on this River
Oh my…… oh, oh my. I don’t know if the ankle or the fish hook hurt me worse!!! Good thing y’all went as a group, that’s for sure. Hopefully the ankle is healing nicely. Thanks for reminding us about the dangerous things that can happen out there.
My buddies helped me out a lot. My friend Scott had the hook in his hand. He pulled that hook out like a champ. Anything can happen in the woods,but I’m really glad my friends were with me. Have a great day Chris 👊🏻
Oh that looked really painful! Get well soon buddy 🙏
Thank you. The painful part is me sitting on a couch and not being in the woods 😁
Get well bro! In our prayers
Thank you. I’ll take the prayers. Have a great day Mark
Ooooo, that makes me hurt. Glad you got it all fixed up.
Thank you. I’m healing up pretty good. Have a great day my friend
Dang man. Sorry that happened to you. Hope you’re healing up well.
I’m healing up pretty good. Just missing the woods really bad. Have a great day Carlson 👊🏻
Great video hope you heal up soon
Thank you. I’m healing up pretty good. Have a great day Glenn
My ankle was hurtin just watching your video. Hope its all healing up good. 👍👍
I’m healing up. Surgery went well. Just have to give myself time for recovery. Have a great day 😁
Beautiful river!! Totally sucks about your ankle man!! J & C
I’ll be ok. Just missing the outdoors really bad. You two have a great summer 😁
What a story. I love how you break your ankle but you just carry on with a table review. 😂 Glad you made it out safely, brother.
😂😂😂 your comment has me belly laughing 😂 miss you bro 👊🏻 I love that table ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve ran that section of BSF a dozen times over the years in a canoe. Incomparable scenery and great fishing! I absolutely feel bad for you Jason. You handled it amazingly well. You’ll get well soon I hope. You take care and get back out there soon.
Thank you. We try and do this River a couple of times a year. Sometimes it’s my favorite trip of the year. Thank you again and I hope to see you in the BSF one day
Duuude what the heck!! Awesome trip but sucks for the ankle. Get better man so we can do a fall/winter trip!!
Thank you brother. I’m definitely in for a late Fall or Winter trip. Thinking about a trip down south during November or December
Man Jason what a ride! It’s time you get a sit on top kayak to stay afloat in those rapids!
My buddies love there sit on top. I’m a big fan of my Old Town Loon. I hope you do this route one day with your friends or with me and mine. I think you’d have a blast on this river. Lots of fun!! Have a great day my friend
Dang 13:07 that sucks about the ankle. Good thing you were not alone. When I sprained my ankle bad, it took six months to heal Not able to hike during that time. Maybe hopefully you will fare better than I did.
I think it will be 4-6 months before it’s completely healed. But as soon as I can limp my way to the woods I’m going 😂😂
That section looks very fun. I'm going to have to come down there for that one.
It’s a fun ride my friend. Lots of fun.
Wow! That has to hurt. Im praying for your quick recovery’s. better. Take it easy and heal up. Aside from that it looks like you guys had a great time!
Thank you and I’ll definitely take the prayers. We do this trip a couple of times a year. Usually with better water levels. Awesome a great time with incredible scenery
Speedy recovery my friend ! 👍😎
Thank you brother 👊🏻
Great video as always. Take care, get well soon.
Thank you. My surgery is over and I’m getting myself back to normal 😁
That’s crazy that you had to have surgery. I guess it wouldn’t heal correctly on his own…….
I was pretty shocked that I had to have surgery too. I’m glad the surgery is over and getting myself back to the woods 😁
That's one of my worst fears when hiking out solo. That's nice to have ice handy lol. Great that everyone helped out.
Thank goodness we had coolers and ice 😁😁 Even with a broken ankle this was a really fun trip. The scenery was so beautiful
Hope you are better my friend, have to go kayak camping one day
Thank you my friend. Hopefully I’ll be back at it shortly.
@@BackpackingWithJasonThat’s great news
Dang it! That looked painful, but you were a trooper through it all. Love seeing all your adventures and hope you have 100% recovery and quick healing
Thank you so much. I’m healing up pretty good. Hopefully be back on the trails really soon. Thank you for the kind words
wow mate a great adventure till you injured your ankle guess be back when your ankles better *🌞have a cool week🔆👍like☑full view✅🥸Au🦘*
Thank you Billy B. It was a trip I’ll never forget
Ouch! Hope you have a speedy recovery, brother.
Thank you. I appreciate it. I’m hoping I’ll be back at it for Fall time backpacking
Bro…. way to tough it out. You are definitely living your one life !!! Get better!
Thank you. I hope to be back at it this Fall. Hardest part of the whole trip was popping. Lol
Dang! That must have hurt. Ouch. Glad you got out okay. Those rapids were awesome. Sorry you had to have surgery. Hope the recovery goes well. Great video Jason.
Thank you Crow. Surgery went well. Just sitting at the house has been the hardest part. lol. I hope we can do a wintertime trip together
I hope you have been recovering well. It ca be very hard telling the difference between a sprained ankle and a fracture. Regardless your field first aid was spot on. I would’ve continued a kayak trip as well 😂 Great friends you have! I would’ve done the same! Ruby would have been your assistant as well! Get better soon!
Ruby would have definitely helped me out. I thought for sure I just sprained it or tore some ligaments. But I broke it and had to have surgery. Lol. Hardest part of the trip was popping 😂
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! I can't imagine two more days of those rough waters with a broken ankle. That's how Kentuckians do it! 🤘
Love it. “That’s how Kentuckians do it “ Pretty wild trip and definitely one that I’ll never forget. I still can’t believe I broke it and had to have surgery. Lol
Get well soon, bud! You absolutely made the best of that trip. That is some great friends to help you out like that.
Thank you brother. I sure hope we can do some stuff this Fall.
My friend heal up and get right back out there ! I been thru hell myself and I’m still getting it done !!
Thank you. I’m healing up and I can’t wait to get back out into the woods. My first time breaking a bone
Well this trip will be memorable at least! Praying for a speedy and complete recovery
Thank you Tonya. I’m healing up and hopefully I’ll be back out on the trails really soon
@@BackpackingWithJason that is great news!
A broken bone may not keep from the outdoors but I suspect Ms.Backpacking might LOL
😂😂😂 very true
Man! Tough....break, buddy! 😅 Glad you're okay! Heal up!
Thank you. My first time breaking a bone. I’ll be back at it this Fall 😁😁
I built that campsite!!! My fiancé and I just went back last week for about a week and we're hoping we'd find whoever used it on social media! Glad you enjoyed the fire pit! The table/bench was made from pieces of a door I pulled from the creek two summers before. I also found that iron gear at the same time!
Great job on the fire pit and campsite. It sure was a beautiful area for camping. Do you know any of the history of the chimney that’s still up. We found another chimney about a mile away from that one near camp
