Great videos, gentlemen! The older guy near the end talking about ginseng is actually my dad! We could hardly believe him the day he came home asking, "What is CZcams?" and telling us about you. These videos are awesome.
Wow! That is awesome! We're glad you found the videos, and thanks for checking us out! What we didn't get on camera was him talking very proudly about his kids and what they've accomplished, by the way. Anyway, your dad is awesome and very knowledgeable - please thank him for us for all his stories and for sharing his knowledge with us :)
@@AdventureArchives You Just described my uncle perfectly!
THAT'S AWESOME!!!! Love how he said we are all connected. From there to Asia.
Derek Hinkle that’s just so great. What a warm laugh we had. 🍄
Hinkle? Are you related to Elizabeth Danielle Hinkle?
When are you guys coming up to collab? :)
Holy shit! Joe in the AA comments 😃. I'd love to see you guys collab. Meet up at glacier national park or something. That'd be sweet
Waiting for colaboration guys
Fully endorsed!
Would be an epic video
It’s joe
OMG that scene before it rains at the campsite.....where you guys are relaxing and snacking......and the wind comes up and it starts RAINING LEAVES! That shot is art my friends. ART!
Yes!! I had to replay that scene at least 10 times. Magical!
totally. ..i split my sides laughing.....
I appreciated how Brian kept it so real. He didn't seem too impressed with the surroundings and wasn't afraid of saying so on camera. Love you guys so so much for your authenticity!
In contrast I think he could of had a better attitude. The other guy found and shared so much beauty
I love how you guys can take a lacklustre hike and make over an hour of enjoyable video from it.
Wildcat is not lackluster but it is very overcrowded anymore it used to be an unknown but in the last 5 years its getting very popular
The intro is always so impressive every time I see it. It has got to be one of the best intros on youtube.
Thanks for the breath of fresh air guys - I can actually feel the stress leave my body while watching. Beautifully done as always! :)
I play these videos at work and listen with the headphones on. It does just that for me too....stress relief. LOL
Chris, that is so much my experience when watching! I had resorted to taking vitamin D3 because I was so down, thinking SAD had hit me early this Winter. Since I started watching these videos I don't feel a need for the vitamins!
My favorite thing about your camping videos is when you guys eat dinner together. You get so giddy, and I completely understand why! There's very few things in life that give you a morale boost like eating a satisfying, well-earned meal with good company after a long day's hike. Thank you guys so much for all of the hard work you put into making these videos!
Thank you for cleaning up the litter at the camp site. I hate that people leave their mess for others to clean up.
Wow, that rain was so sudden. I laughed out loud at the reactions to the wind picking up. As an aside, stroopwafels are great...if you have never had even one other dessert...ever.
Omg chicken of the woods AND pawpaw!
i don't understand how some people do not understand LEAVE NO TRACE! Thanks guys for pointing it out.
Love you guys for showcasing the underappreciated nature in Ohio.
You really should try Hocking Hills, IMO the best park in Ohio with some incredible rock formations and even some caves.
I came to learn about potential holes in the Wildcat Offense formation in football, but decided to stay for the camping. Solid.
haha, well i guess thats one way to get viewers :)
Their is a lot of beauty around wildcat. You just have to tune into your surroundings to appreciate it.
I feel like our trip was just at an unfortunate time and all these bad things came together to make the experience unenjoyable for us :( I'm sure there are other trails too that are awesome.
You guys are great! My son and I are newish hikers and planning a thru-hike.
Thanks for keeping it kid-friendly and educational!!
The amount of knowledge that Andrew has about plants is mind-blowing. I've learned so much. Thank you
I love orb weavers. We had a huge web on our porch for years. We all were really careful not to ruin it.
Another goodie episode! ❤
The creative Patreon shoutouts are always gold
When you all stopped for lunch and the wind began to pick up, the sound of the wind through the trees and raindrops on the fallen leaves made me intensely jealous I wasn't there to take out a tent and have a nice nap. That sound is so relaxing
I think I’ll take a pass on actually hiking this trail myself, but I really enjoyed the episode! Andrew’s knowledge of fungi and plants is astounding! I thought I’d picked up a lot over my yrs of hiking but what I’ve learned doesn’t even compare! You really give me the incentive to start studying harder! I have so much respect for what you 3 accomplish w these beautiful and informative films...As always, many many thanks for the hard work it takes to produce these artful gems!
No kidding, where did you guys go to college? You're smart.
Very nice hike. No swearing. Great trail info. We like it.
Thanks for taking me with you guys I'm one of your silent buddy ☺️
Thanks for joining :)
We camped there for several summers. We rode our ATVs for miles and miles. Wayne is a beautiful place to go hang out.
Me and a group of friends have hiked this trail loop for an extended weekend several times to get 'disconnected' from the world for a bit. You captured the trail for all it is. Me and my friends were looking for a hard weekend, rough livin' , and hiking and that is exacatly what we got.
Great video guys!
I really love that you guys went into some foraging information and ways to know if the forest is healthy or not
sometimes the most precious things in life r not wrapped in pretty ribbons and manicured sometimes they r pure nature in its rustic beauty
To be young and with friends, cherish these moments fellows. At the blink of an eye, there gone.
Born and raised in Ohio, been living here for 20 years now. I swear, nearly every part of Ohio looks the same!
you guys effortlessly turn your pain into comedy; some of the funniest commentary comes out in the roughest times
I felt badly for Brian. He looked so over it on the second day. 💞
i was very over it, lol!
Enjoy your love for camping hiking and enjoy your surroundings of nature .👍🏻
47:30 Been going through your videos a lot lately and I gotta say... This is one of my all time favorite AA moments. 🤣🤣🤣 Watching you guys try to enjoy those caramel apples is 👌 Live long and strong you guys. My all time favorite show and channel on youtube.
analogy for a rainy hike; versus a work day in your cubicle. You persevered and made it through.
5:46 - love the bassline and nightshots. .. the apples looked so good, and the spoofs at the end were great. lol 👍
OK, I'm adjusting to the intro music/graphics. One time I made a comment mildly disparaging the vibe, I believe I said it was kind of corny or something. It's growing on me and I love you guys so much that the connection makes the intro itself valuable to me. You guys make the show with your personalities of intellectual exploration, love of life
And nature, and skills and everything from geology to botanyTo food
I love your guys' way of giving shoutouts during the credits.
Another great adventure! Your production gets better every time! Keep setting the bar for adventure vids and thanks for sharing.... and who would’ve guessed on all the acting talent. 😝😊👍
HI ARCHIVES! THROUGH YOUR VIDEOS WHICH I REPEAT THROUGH THESE TROUBLING TIMES I'M IN MY 6TH HOUR BINGE WATCHING THE CHANNEL, FROM MY HEART THANK YOU FOR TAKING ME AWAY FROM THIS WORLD YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS IS DOING FOR MY SOUL, THANKS GUYS I CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW MUCH THIS HELPS! 🤙👍💓💓
Another fantastic video, Lads ! I really enjoy your spirit, camaraderie, botanical knowledge and moviemaking ability ! Keep up the good work.
The Buckeye is a Horse Chestnut in the UK and also known as a "conker" which kids put holes in and string through and fight each other by hitting it till one breaks! And they are also eaten, roasted on an open fire is best - they taste like baked potato and taste nice with a little salt
Great video, love your attention to detail. Also, nice job educating us on some of the ecology surrounding your trek. Well done!
The United States is so diverse and beautiful from sea to sea and everywhere in between.....but Ohio will always be the most beautiful to me. Home sweet home, glad you love coming to the Buckeye state!
your videos are gold and i love how you guys talk about the nature and chill on campsites man i really want to try hiking
I live just 5 minutes from the trails. I hike them all the time.
Your videos are very encompassing. Easy to fall into and forget where you are. Thank you for your sacrifice and freedom share.
29:54 that is why I'm giving this video a like. I love that sound, on top of that nice fall air work the leaves falling. That is the most relaxing and peaceful moment you can only wish for on a nice hike. I love this video!
Love hiking in the rain (although not thunderstorms!) My favourite experience hiking in the rain was seeing a wolf (who I assume did not hear/smell us because of the rain). He ran off as soon as he saw us. And nearly walking on a fawn. I was busy taking pictures of the mother and didn't even notice him - so quiet. He didn't move until I was so close he kicked mud on me (and my camera lens) when he ran away.
Back in April, I did this same hike. I did it with a group of friends as one of my first hikes. We did the entire trail, the other guys pushed me and the trail really beat me. I had only done one other hike earlier in the year. When we reached the same spot you did at 2:39 we continued back around and finished the south loop. Then hiked back up and did the north loop. Where you were at 2:39 is where a giant rainstorm came in, everything got soaked. It was a long journey. At 37:59 we camped at the same spot except we had like 20 people in the camp. I was very very tired by that point aswell.
But definitely a learning experience.
I do however recommend Zaleski state park. That was an absolutely great hike.
Just found your videos and am blown away by the quality of the productin and the insightful narration. You guys deserve a much larger audience to share your art with the world.
I live in a Texas forest with lots of different mushrooms. I really want to try some but always afraid of accidentally eating a poisonous one. Learning from you Andrew thanks.
Thanks again Adventure Archives for another phenomenal episode, it was a great watch!
Guys, I will make a wish on a star tonight. My wish will be for a NON-PRECIPITATION episode of AA! Well done guys! The music for the episodes is really evolving into something interesting. Liked the beats in this one. What Wildcat Hollow may lack in stunning scenery, it made up for with all the plants and fungi identified in this episode. This one was definitely an episode exploring the smaller world, just look down. Oh and the shout-outs, they were a "Thriller" LOL Your imaginations are as fertile as the ground those mushrooms were growing in! :)
Hahha, thank you! I hope your wish comes true. Yeah, there were actually a lot of cool plants and mushrooms this time around, including some I had seen for hte first time :) Cheers! -Andrew
I’ve hiked a lot of trails in Ohio/Wayne NF, I think it’s good I always passed on Wildcat Hollow. Too much access for ATVs and apparently people dumping trash and stuff. Noise, oil & gas extraction. Rather go somewhere more remote. North Country Trail & Ohio Buckeye Trails thru Wayne have some nice stretches without easy road access so less trash & people. A lot of our trails do get overgrown. I know the heat too. Sometimes you can go from humid 75° day to 32° the next night! Plus pop up rain storm in between.
"the blanket of dryness I provide". Holy crap that scene was hilarious.
Sasquatch live in the forest & are active at night. They also imitate
Owl sounds! Along with knocks & tree breaks! Also various
Tree & branch forms like tee peet's & other shapes. They have yellow eye shine at night. Sometimes they
Yell with grumble sounds! Yelling or whistling back at them
Makes them angry! They make all those sounds at each other
For a reason important
To them!
I love all the plant knowledge. Thank you.
Would have loved to hear that “CACOPHONY of crickets and katydids”, at 7:07! 😜👍 Nice word! Excellent video, and great job on capturing and transferring the essence and feeling of the trip to your viewers! 🌿🍂🎃
The shout out ending is hilarious! 😅 Another great episode and the video editing always gets two thumbs up from Uptrail. 👍👍
I appreciate that the scenery and the trail might have been one of your least enjoyable... But somehow this film is my favourite! All the botany and mushroom lessons were so entertaining and interesting. As someone from Pacific northwest, these flora and fauna are completely new to me. Exotic, one might say!
Just finished overnight backpack trip here. Made plans with hope of minimal overgrowth being early spring....epic fail. The thorny bushes were so bad I felt like I was bushwhacking instead of being on an established trail. I would estimate 80% of the trail is horribly overgrown. On the up side, almost all the campsites are really nice! Face net helps with the nonstop spider webs.
Was so cool hearing you guys talk about Shawnee! I love that place, and my experience with the humidity was the same. It's hard to put to words how heavy the moisture in the air can be there at times. It literally feels like a weight on your shoulders.
I went to school at OU and I'm so sad I never got to hike Wayne, Just didn't work out with me leaving all my gear and my car at home. Great video, if I ever go back to visit, ill def do a trip here looks great!
Love you guys! You're hilarious and I love your wholesome videos!
Always amazed how knowledgeable you are.
Just discovered your videos and they are really good. I'm a local to the Wild cat hollow area and me and my wife used to go walk the trails around 2011 time frame. Back then the trails were much more open and clean. I think funding has been cut to keep the trails open. They never used to be that grown up with the trashy vegetation.
IMHO the diff. between yours & other chans. & the reason I watch...…. most hikers shoot for 10 or 12 to 20 miles a day. YOU GUYS hike 2 to 5 and see the woods, nature, animals, ALL of it. great chan. all of you. thx for sharing the adventures & knowledge
Thank you!! :)
Well done guys! So many great memories of the ohio woods and the hocking hills.
In the uk we call those nuts conkers, drill through them, hang them on a string and play a game with them not surprisingly called conkers
we make animals with them chestnuts and wood skewer :D
I Just want to add that I love your personalities and the fact that no matter what gets thrown at you. You just roll with the punches and find the good. Even when you can venta bit you guys are just always laughing and fun. I'll bet your family is a lot of fun.❤
I never get tired of watching your channel!💝🍀🌸🌿🌱☘
The videography in this one is sooo good! Love the colors and the smooth camera movements
Another fun episode, especially all the food sequences. Those caramel apples were ridiculous, though Andrew has a great eye for international sweets. I was thinking that maybe the chicken of the woods would make a good pulled pork sandwich substitute...
Comment about those woods - by all indications they have been human-handled to the max. With good management they could eventually recover within the next century or so, though many of the exotic species will never be truly eradicated. Still, such places yet retain much of their biodiversity, as your video clearly shows. Thanks for the detailed look, especially all the fungi. Imaginative ending too, you guys rock!
Great comment botanyboy :)
Thanks for sharing all your awesome hiking adventures. I love day hiking and hope to do a cool backpacking trip someday too. Can't wait for you next one!
As a hiker from england this chanel is awsome....time to work hard...save and tour the states 😉😉
No need to work hard to do this. Just record it, then set up a Patreon page like these guys and have your viewer's pay for all your fun trips. These guys have 642 Patrons! And they are still, according to them less than half way to their goal of Patrons. Not only will you have your viewers pay for your fun camping trips. You will get rich asf! Lol.
@@MindsetMastery75 😂😂😂....AWSOME!!
Just dont go to Ohio like they did. All the trails are pretty underwhelming. Though maybe that is just because I live in that shit state!
I live in springfield. i love seeing all the videos of you guys making Ohio look absolutely beautiful. im on mad river all the time. loved the mad river video. cant wait to hike this trail. keep up the good work boys!!
I have done alone backpacking at wildcat hollow last summer. It was like a backpacking in the jungle. I have never seen that many insects together lol.
The perfect honey blossoms. I love when my bees forage on the asters and the goldenrod. The bees love the autumn Olive too.
Good to know! I know the autumn olive berries are edible for us too once they're shriveled up :)
I had found a honey bee tree by listening and following the sound once. I stood in a field that was not being farmed. The government pays to let the grasses and other plants grow wild to encourage the growth of wild life. I followed this low, deep hum noise I swore to my nephew I heard. Eventually we came to a huge Oak that had a massive amount of bees covering a hole in the trunk. Right in front of that tree were the Autumn Olive bushes teaming with honeybees. It was quite a sight.
this makes me ready for spring to come around. only i hope my allergies don't try to put me halfway into a grave
“the blanket of dryness” was so funny, off the charts!
Great trip guys!!
Oh man, you guys encountered the exact same problem we ran into on this trail, that trailhead is impossible to see at first
Wolly bear caterpillar. AKA willyworm. The Midwest is a magical treat.
I enjoyed the night time creepy feel. Awesome job guys!
Edit: I live in Ohio and watched the entire video....learned a lot. Thank You!
Next time slice the apples and dip and the caramel
What would you do if you camped near that school house and heard the piano play in the middle of the night?
3-26-20 EST TN/ TRY RUNNING
What a bummer Wildcat Hollow was for you! As always though you came thru for us with another fab episode!! Would love to see you re-visit Dolly Sods again...perhaps another winter episode?
Great video, so much knowledge
Thank you so much for this video, as always! What a treat! I loved your decision to act out the credits at the end, so funny!
WOW!! Well done!
Did this trail several years ago in late spring. It wasn't so over grown at that time of the year, but with the temperature in the mid 90s and humidity to match, had to stop to dump the water from the sweat out of my shoes every mile.
Just did this trail yesterday. It was my wife and i's 1st ever backpacking trip:) Watching you guys really helped her feel better about going. You really show the fun in backpacking by making it an adventure in looking for different plant species and eating treats. We saw all the pawpaw groves, but couldn't find any pawpaw fruits. We had a great time, and oh did we learn a lot of what to change for our next adventure!! Thanks guys!
Been binging (in no particular order) all your uploads for a few weeks now. I'm enjoying the content, & so does my mum who watches with me occasionally. She was sad abt the "health" of this forest haha.
On a different note, I'm commenting for the first time because that old school house at the start reminded me of the opening lines of the poem "The Village Schoolmaster" by Oliver Goldsmith. :)
I keep crossing my fingers that I’ll watch an episode where you all Build a big campfire and just get drunk as skunks and get loud and stay up till dawn, and hike off your hangover the next day.
This is a really fun relaxing video for us here on this side. It just went from dry and still to blustery and Fall. I love your conversations you're just a fun bunch to hang out with
Oh! I remember that HOT weekend! I was at the Ohio Renaissance Festival that Saturday. It was 85+ degrees! Unusually hot for October. It's too bad all the 'encroachment' and litter was on the trail... and the invasive species. Here in Southern Ohio, you can't get away from the honeysuckle! There is hardly any more true old growth forest and native undergrowth any more. It's all honeysuckle!
48:14 Best part. So hilarious!! Whole apples are such a pain in the a** to bite into. :D
The outback in a rain storm is also very delicate because it put s the individual at his utmost test for balance; I mean to just enjoy the rain somehow.. by managing to keep warm by not getting bone soaked,and then maybe just having a cup of green tea and just saying "man, I'm so glad I was out here during this 🦄🦓🦄🦓🦄🦓😉😊😂🤣
Great stuff guys, love the videos so full of info, well edited and filmed. Merry Christmas all!!
So interesting that you met the ginseng hunter out there!
Esther Sugai I’ve even seen the locals on the AT in NC/VA looking for Ginsing!
@@graceiovine3080 so cool!
Awesome again dudes!!! Im 3rd gen chinese american, an I always feel a comfortable connection with the natural environment when I am out on a trek/hike. Oak forest trails are my fave, with a little moss and fern so relaxing. Cheers and happy holidays guys.
Hello my outdoors friend. This was another fine and very educational video. You have some very intellectual friends. Always be safe out there and be sure to have too much fun. 🤗
