Well guys that was an awesome trip. I'm glad I subscribed to your channel. I really love the mountains. I grew up in west virginia and now live in florida so I miss those hills like you guys were on and the scenery was just fantastic. Thank you for letting me come along on such a great adventure.
Dwayne. I'm so looking forward to many more with you.
Thanks for watching and subscribing! I am looking at putting together a trip to WV soon!
The is my spot dude. This is where I fell in love with backpacking and the Ozarks.
I can see how this could make you fall in love!
What a beautiful trail with lots of interesting spots. Great video🙌🏻
Thanks for trying out our newest dessert and taking us along.
We love your stuff! I need to place an order. I'm now running pretty low, need to top it off. That apple crisp was AMAZING!!! I'll be getting more for sure.

Really impressed with the scenery of this area. Primo campsites & cool new hammock ✌️
The campsites were top notch! We did well with picking each of them.
Great video of a beautiful hike. Just got back from hiking the BRT in the rainy season and I highly recommend it. We did not get sick of all the waterfalls!
It's an amazing area. I do want to get back with the waterfalls all flowing!
Fantastic river for a family trip! Been there a few times. I will have to check out the trail. It was the first protected "Wild and Scenic River" 1972 IIRC.
It is beautiful, I can see it being somewhere we go to more often. There are a ton of other trails in the area we need to explore as well. Thanks!
Great content ! Blogger from The Trek here and Arkansas native, keep it up !
This trip has been on my radar since I visited Butterfield Hiking Trail last year. Beautiful area and I want to go back!! You introduced me to Butterfield and have now convinced me that I need to hit this too, Mark!! Great video!
For sure you need to stop delaying and get out there. I highly suggest going while the leaves are off the trees, with them on you'll miss 90% of the views. It would have been super amazing if there was water flowing in the side creeks and those waterfalls were alive!
Awesome place, and absolutely gorgeous in the spring time!
It really is! I'll be heading back out there for more!
Cool looking area to go backpacking. Interesting new hammock!
I'll be doing a video on that hammock tomorrow, look for it soon!
Happy New Year. Looks like a beautiful spot.
Happy new year! Thanks, it's a great trail!
Good god...you backpack all over my proverbial backyard. If you ever need ride, trail magic, or another hiking partner, let me know!!!!!!
I am always open to hiking with others! Shoot me an email sworksmorton at gmail dot com.
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 Awesome! Will do!
Love your content - great stuff! May I make a personal request (others may certainly disagree) please turn down the volume on your music. I can’t hear very well but it seems too loud to me.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
You are in my back yard!!!! I'm 30 min from there!! Pass through 2x a month! Hit me up next time. I've never hiked it. I'd love to join.
Been watching your videos since 2018. didn't realize how much you hike in AR. I've been busy hiking in every other state, but my own. OHT next weekend. 30 mile venture.
Being in OK, AR is close and has WAY better hiking than OK! Like WAY better!!! Hope you're having fun out on the trail!
Great trip video. Where can I find Townsend Bridge Hammocks? My searches don't return with any useful sites.
I'll be doing a video that will give you the details, but his website is - thisgearsforyou.com
Going out tomorrow Mark. Only hiking in a mile if that but taking the hot tent and stove and a lot of other stuff. Very heavy! But its finally snowing here so maybe I can use a sled to haul it in. If not I'll have to take 2 trips. Oh yeah its gonna be cold, with wind chill right around 0F.
How was it? It's been COLD here this past week, windchills below zero. I'll be heading out to do some video tomorrow.
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 It was good. It got down to 9F and below zero with the windchill. But it worked great. At my age though this ground sleeping in the cold just hurts. I can't wait to get into one of my hammocks again.
Can you still get the RUTA LOCURA Carbon Spreader Bars?
Yup! Sure can. I even heard you can get the pot lid again.
Great trip! Why did you take the canister stove? Also, would you mind sharing some details of the trail... Like where the trailhead is, etc...? I would love to do this trail sometime.
Sometimes it's just easier to take the canister, it's a lot quicker and with the amount of coffee I do it would have required a lot of alcohol. So this is the Buffalo River Trail in Arkansas. The trailhead we started on was the Ponca trailhead, in Ponca, Arkansas. We chose this one because we could park at the Buffalo Outdoor Center about a half mile from the trailhead. There are probably 6 different trailheads along this 36-40 mile trail that you can jump on at.
About time brother. You’re too close to ignore the BRT or the OHT.😀
Right! The BRT and surrounding area is amazing. The first 20-30 miles of the OHT have not been nearly as impressive, I liked the OT much more. But you will see sections of the OHT coming up soon!
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 We are lucky to have so many beautiful trails close by. Keep the vids coming please. I’ll be watching for sure!
Thanks Scott, I appreciate it!
Ever think about collecting the water dripping off the tarp and using it for cooking?
Sure, but we n this trip wasn’t necessary since we were on water at each campsite. However, if you do go that route be sure to filter!
Hey Mark, do you always use go pro for camera?
Going to section hike on AT and trying to decide on possible camera gear...
Any guidance?
I’ve used several different kinds of camera over the years but keep coming back to the GoPro. The new Hero 10 is pretty good! The video quality CZcams is showing right now isn’t close to what the actual quality is, and I’m not sure why.
I believe I may settle on Olympus tg-6
When were you out there? We are headed out this next weekend.
We were out there the week between Christmas and New Years.
Please post the name of the song/s used.
I get them off of Soundstipe, which is what I use for my CZcams music. First one is Tough Love by Nu Alkemi$t, second one is There and Back Again by Reveille, and the last one is Morning View by Fantoms.
Your stuff is worth buying a better camera!
I have a couple of really good cameras, I don't take them out when it's going to rain. Also, it's a lot heavier with those cameras. It's funny that the quality that got uploaded is a lot lower than what saved to my computer. I am not sure what's going on.
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 And for some reason my quality setting was on 720p....that's weird!
I just watched it on my big screen TV and the video quality looks fine to me…….?
Views & the fall colors were amazing.
