As a Mother, and Grandmother I want to say to all of you young people what I tell my grown children, when you go hiking, or travel around the Country...
Never tell strangers who ask you personal questions like, where are you from, where are you going, how long will you be out etc.
Never answer any of the their questions "Truthfully." There are people who target those who answer their questions Truthfully.
Do not trust anyone you just met on a road trip, hiking, camping etc. Trust is "earned," and only given after you have known someone for some time and that person has earned your trust.
This is coming to you with concern, care, and the wisdom of years of experience. Go out and do al those things, but be smart! No one needs to know you're artinery. 9 times out of 10, good people will not ask you these type of questions because they themselves would never give out that information to anyone, but family and friends.
Have a great 3 day weekend everyone! 🤗😻💖😘🇺🇲🇺🇲🍻
Great advice!! And I agree you're absolutely right!!
Truer words have never been spoken. This is what I live by!
@@icantthinkofaname15
Thank you, we have gone on many road trips and thank God we have always had a great time. One thing I forgot to add 2as this...
Never ask a stranger for directions, you never know if the person you are asking, will send you to a dead end, call his buddies and they will be waiting for you. Thank God there is you're phone maps that tell you where to go. Still I Always take our map and follow it along with Google maps. 🤗😻💖
@@silentblackelfie
Thank you, you are in if the smart ones! 🤗😻💖
Absolutely! I tell my kids the same- always be aware of your surroundings and the people there. Never give your personal info. out and don't hesitate to call the Police if you are concerned about anything - better a false alarm than an emergency situation where you could've gotten help and didnt. Keep a weapon of some kind and a bugout bag w/ food, water, and a sleeping bag in your car, AT ALL TIMES, even if you're just out for a day trip-You just never know😊.
Insomnia and Ptsd Is a 10/10 for me. Haven't been able to Fall asleep until the morning for the past 6 years. Your videos Actually help me Relax and get some sleep. Thank you for That Swamp!
Glad to be of service!
I'm the same, don't know why because sometimes my blood runs cold, thanks Swamp👍
They help me sleep too! And I used to struggle with ptsd
@@hotuish how long before it went away?
Try kratom for a while its the least destructive or addictive off anything that puts you to sleep like sleeping pills..apart from weed but I'm guessing u either don't smoke weed or don't like it I can't smoke weed anymore..but yh some kratom there's 5 types some just knock you out some lift your mood some give you energy and mood lift..they all relax you but red kratom knocks you out,green lifts your mood and relaxes,white relaxes you but with a energy kick at same time and there's ones all inbeetween there's 100s out there but 4/5 base colours ..cheers
Yeah it gets scary out here
Hiking near torreya tommorow. Home of the skunk ape!
“With loads more than 50 lbs”
Anyone who hikes : my god, wtf did you pack?!?
Cool swamp threads if you will!
Do you really want to know that answer
Beer, remember? Fucking beer. That writer is a camper like I'm a fucking astronaut.
Right 👩🏽🎨
I hate to be that person but the story is the fakest of fake stories, of course they didn't even do basic research lmao
I’m from the Appalachian Mountains 🏔 in East Tennessee. Love these stories.
The mountains keep secrets 🏔
You better believe it!
Yes they do
Perfect! Can't sleep but at least I have my Swamp man with another great vid to listen to. Thanks!
I grew up in the mountains of east Tennessee, in the very small town of Sunbright. I often liked taking hikes. One day i went out on a long hike. While walking up the center of a little valley i noticed a weird group of rocks, about 3 feet high. It looked like a makeshift grave or something except in the top there was a little dome of rocks with a hole to reach in, and inside it was weirdly dark. Id never seen anything like this and i was curious but it freaked me out a bit. I literally thought "this is some horror movie shit, i aint putting my hand in there" and kept walking. Eventually i turned around and started taking the same way back, you have to follow your own trail back or its easy to get lost. Never saw it on the way back even though i was looking and decided i wanted to investigate it more. Too bad we were poor and this was the early days of cell phones, wish i had a picture of it
Ive heard some weird stuff happens on the trail, like alot of junkies like to camp out there.
I read Bill Bryson''s book on the Trail - Into The Woods, I think it was called??
And he talked about how he looked up stuff abput the Appalachian Trail - namely about murders and serial killers? He said in the book (late 1990s, I think?) that the official Park Service book proudly boasts that no-one has come to harm on the AT? This may (have been) true, on the Trail proper; but he says he found books telling of grisly murders that happened on the '*side* trails!
Right onn!!!
I love being indoors!
Queen of the swamp is here, and them Appalachian mountains ain’t no joke!
Thanks for the video ☺️
Listen to you every night to fall asleep. Great stuff brother
Thanks, Mike!
Perfect timing Swamps
Made my Friday night seeing you upload!
“Necessary substances to free our minds”I like it!
Not even sure, I want to camp anymore ...
Excellent timing, now I'll sleep with one eye open!😉.....Maybe I should shut our bedroom window....Nah we're two stories up we'll be fine.😴🌜🕙 Thanks Swampy.
I finally watched the missing 411 movie!! Now I'm heavy into the mountain stories.
I already watched it. Very interesting, creepy and fascinating. I love scary mountain, camping, hiking or forest stories
@@icantthinkofaname15 I honestly didn't know about it until recently! The mountains are definitely scary and formidable, or at least what's in them.
Love the stories swampy. Thanks it really helps me unwind. Stay safe.
Friday night fright
Beers and swampy 😎🍺
Don’t know if I was the only one that suggested this but you did mine! I feel special
Which one was yours?
@@icantthinkofaname15 just asking to do Appalachian trail stories. Not an actual story
These were cool stories Swamp man, Thanx
the first one is pretty sad. I hope the person in the cottage is safe. they were probably homeless and found that place already abandoned, if it was that run-down.
*Thank yoooou for saying 'Apple-Atchan' correctly!!!* ❤❤❤❤❤
Good Stories
Love the video swampy 💜💜
The bear story pissed me off. If they had just made some noise and put their arms in the air, the black bear would've just left. It showed no signs of aggression, and was clearly just curious. As an experienced hiker, I've encountered many a black/brown bear in the US, and they have never been anything more than overgrown, dorito-craving house cats.
Well said
My favorite was the couple who stayed in the same spot with a totally crazy woman. That was a freaky story! 🤗😻😘💖🇺🇲🇺🇲🍻
Thank u Swamp I enjoyed it!
Thanks for listening!
Mt. Leconte has more than a few strange stories around it, ive had my own experiences up there too, strange
Ooohhh please share if you can. I hiked it a month ago!
Story 1. NEVER, EVER leave the trail. First rule of hiking. Their mistake was taking a "short cut". Story 2. Always take bear mace with you while hiking. Even if you don't expect a bear, it can be used on other beasts or people. Story 5. You never go hiking, even if it's only a few miles, by yourself.
Good stories!
I can't wait to go camping. Doubt it'll be as exciting as in USA
😄😁
Where do you live? The reason I ask, well it's two fold, first I would like to know where on our fine planet you call home? And finally, because I live in Australia 🇦🇺 it's getting very difficult to go camping due to this COVID 19 agenda. Ps I hope you do get the chance to enjoy our wonderful and wild planet. As it's full of wonders that always surprise and enlighten us.👍.
@@markwhelan9887 I live in South Australia but would like to go camping in NSW/QLD. With this Covid border controls I doubt that we'll be able to go interstate any time soon.
@@helenivanoff6287 come to the u.s. as a refugee. Australia has lost its fricken mind
@austin a agree 100% I was talking to a few friends! and funny how they say there are many deaths from Covid 19, here in Australia yet not one celebrity has died from it? that's strange! it appears it only kills the poor people? if your rich you have a better immune response????? Please stop it with all the lies already we the people need to rebel against all the rules and let them see what fear-mongering does to people.
Why pack 50 lbs worth of gear??? Less is more, only the essentials man...
Spooky!! 🙂👍
F-ing right, I'll gather round! Thanks again, Swamp. Still trying to figure out if you're in a band.
Yeah I sing for a metal band.
@@swampdweller Right on! I thought I read that somewhere. You've got to tell me the name, please. I'm very impressed that you can do that, and this. I'm older, so I recall seeing so many excellent bands in the 90s. Love to check your band out! And thanks for all the great (and consistent) work you do. My young daughter and I listen to you every time you post, before bed. I'll get some merch or whatever one of these days, as you sincerely deserve income for what'cha do. Thank you, Swamp.
@@swampdweller which one?!?! I would love to buy a record or two!!!!!!
I probably told you this before. We were camping in the smokies just out of Gatlinburg. While setting up the site, a bear showed up sniffed our toddler stood up and left. Other campers told us he was probably looking for sweets. Needless to say we spent the next few nights in a motel, and haven’t camped since.
I'm new to your channel and enjoying your story's , be back for many more... 👍🙈🙉🙊
Welcome to the swamp my friend
Thank you for the stories
Yesssss I anticipate this being incredibly good….ty swamp u rock! 🤘🏼🤘🏼💋💋☠️☠️
Yes!! I love Swamps "true stories!"
Best way to sleep at night on vacation!
First time listening
Hey this isn't really a horror story but its a possibly paranormal encounter, you can see it if you go to the brown mountain light in western North Carolina.
I'm appalachian born and raised. Them lights have been there since the appalachias were a thing. I backpack a lot. I've spent bout my whole life exploring the woods. So when I backlack up to this cliff, bout a 4 to 500 foot drop. And I had a good view of the lights. It was beautiful and creepy at the same time, them lights shining all night, moving around. Now there is a little jack tale about them lights, one day a native man went missing, so the whole town went a looking for him, hence the lights. There is a gap there called deep gap, many people have went missing along that valley. Everyone who goes down there hardly ever comes back. Even found a military knife in a campfire.
You can even see videos of them on youtube
@@moonshiner3400 whats the channel? Where can i watch that?
@@Travelling688 look up brown mountain lights
GREAT stories loved them all.
👍👍👍

Mt. Man Mike
I think the one dude slipped into a weird kinda pocket dimension that just happened to line up with our own making everything seem normal when in reality it wasn't
I hope you are not offended, I like to listen to your stories when I am trying to sleep, I usually have to listen couple of times to hear it all.
First one sounds like a cold case they should report this
Not able to do any type of camping but the one thing I wouldn't go without is a gun and at least three loaded banana clips of ammo.
And who doesn't take a couple of packs of Bear Creek's soup mix?
1st.......almost........
I liked the last story because losing time is creepy!
Am I the only one who falls asleep listening to these stories 😭😭
50lb packs. Wtf you pack, a darn pitbull ?
They brought the whole house apparently
@@swampdweller seems that way
done a 3 day section hike on the appalachian trail back in june had a bad storm in Maryland was glad it was not A tornado
Bed time music 🤪
Story 4 had me most frozen lol. But I couldn't help but wonder if I heard it before around 4 years ago as well from your same channel since the phrases shelter and crazy woman sounded familiar. Nonetheless, I'm glad I'm shook lol
thank you for actually pronouncing “Appalachian” correctly 🥺❤️
"...and take a few tokes, if you know what I mean." Toke has a pretty standard meaning, so now I don't know what you mean.
It's between the cabin and the lost of time.
I spent a week at the Shenandoah national park campground for a few days in number 28 that campsite is creepy at night I didn't get much sleep in those few days so I left never went back to that spot again
I really enjoyed and appreciate your hard work.
why would anybody give a thumbs down==swamp dweller works hard on these videos
4:57 you started sounding like a spoken word person lol
Great stories
Glad you like them!
Hell yeah. Appalachia is pretty and creepy.
Can y’all send in Oklahoma stories please!
Can I put my bawls in yo jawls? can I put my bawls in yo jawls? Can iiiiii, can iiiii? Can iiiii, can iiiii?
The bullet will not hurt them but thy sword of steel, saturated in thy blood will.
Beware Three finger and his family.
Creepy stories 😳
Got shit forest guides if they don't have anything to deal with scaring off a black bear. Especially with one bear and several people around.
Sounds creepy
In all seriousness, I really hope Maya is okay and wasn't actually drugged.
Yup maya was definitely high on something.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today?
My fat ass keeps me from camping!
You said Appalachian wrong
Mist habe mich so gefreut aber leider nur Englisch und mein Englisch ist nicht so gut 😭😭😭
The only thing keeping me from visiting is my autistic son.
what is swamps first language does anyone know?
Portugese.
@@swampdweller thats awesome!! A lot of my friend's first languages is portugese :)
A.puh.lay.shn. 😆 💜
the story with "maya" is kind of infuriating because obviously she didnt have a cannabis tolerance and smoked enough to make her trip out. That these people didnt recognize what was happening and try to chill her out is just ridiculous.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
40 pounds off weed 🙌🏻😂
Dude wtf was that first and third story those were boring as hell
We need Joy, Sex and Peace ✌️😠
Stoned's stories are so worthless... I just can't take them seriously. I know , as they will be the first to become defensive as if it is some race of people S or something... Lol
It's just dumb to assume that because someone was impaired that their story has no weight. Sure, It makes the story a little less believable in certain aspects. It's hardly fair to say they are "worthless" stories though.
Again no pictures no video
