    What a great trip. The best part for me what the smile on the young mans face when he met you. That’s pretty cool that you have touched and been a positive influence on his young life that he’ll remember. Well done sir! So glad you’re back out in the woods. Happy trails Shug!

    Shug, you said something that I noticed and it shouldn't be overlooked. I recently went out to Colorado and did a solo hike with my dog. Every single person that I encountered on the trail was in a good mood. Nature and a good trail brings out the best in people. I also think it is a sharing of something that like minded people love to do that brings out that goodness. Whoo buddy!

  • @HazzM
    @HazzM Před 2 lety +2

    Chanterelle mushrooms do not have gills, they have fake gills (sometimes referred to as veins). The veins are decurrent, this means they run down into the stem.
    What you have there appear to have true gills. If so I'm guessing false chanterells or jack-o-lanterns, both are inedible.
    Love your vids, thanks for sharing and keep on rocking it! :)

    • @sonipitts

    Camping, hiking and bushcraft are my favourite things to do, my mind knows this and because I am mentally ill, my mind has decided to make me have panic attacks to stop me going. Whenever I am packed, dressed to leave and feeling like crap I watch shugs videos and go to the woods.

    • @shugemery

    What a great trip! Hiking and or backpacking in the woods and or mountains enjoying creation indeed have a way of lifting a person's spirits and bringing out the best in people. One of the many reasons I love to get out there.
    Looking forward to the book being written. Highly recommend "Lost in the Wild" by Cary Griffiths, two gripping tales of men who went missing and how quickly things can go south so to speak, one in the BWCA and the other in Quetico.

    Skimmed into this & already love the hammock concepts & good characters; I'll pop back in a bit & take it all in. The ideas that you do not need, nor do main-stream hammocks & tarps necessarily prevail: there is always room to innovate. I love having the pad & ground options: more positions, inflate on train exhibition car at night to sleep, easy sleep at a bus layover or airport, and comfortable stracture-sleep-number hammock bed.

    Definitely NOT a chanterelle, lol. The give-away is the free-standing, easily-broken gills rather than folds and bridges like you see in chants. Probably a Russula. Edibility would depend on whether or not it's acrid/hot to the taste when nibbled (don't eat the hot ones - they won't kill you, but they might make you wish it for a bit). That second yellow one is an unrelated species, I think.

    It's funny you mentioned the spot where something felt off. Theres a state forest near me here in Wisconsin that this one spot I go to, feels off and I am uneasy about it every time I'm there. I even tried to do a dispersed camp there once and I bailed. I think we have remanences of a sense from a time when we were more wild. A sense that helps to keep us safe in the woods.

    Not a Chanterelle! The mushroom you showed at the beginning had true gills. Chanterelles have veins that run halfway down the stem. All chanterelles have veins including Black trumpets, and Cinnabar Chanterelle.

    SHUG, got and suggestion. I've been drinking Turkish coffee for 25 years. 10 years ago I started using it as instant coffee. If you have the super fine coffee, 2 teaspoons in a mug and pour boiling water, stir for a little longer than you'd think, wait for the grounds to settle and voila. Experiment with the strength of coffee you enjoy. 2 teaspoons is just my preference. Enjoy
