  • Surprise snowstorm in August 2021 as we camp in a remote fire lookout deep in the Cascade Mountains! Watch us hike through wet weather to a remote historic fire lookout as early season snow falls! In this video, we harvest huckleberries, camp in a fire lookout, and explore a remote mountain wilderness area.
    We post videos each week following our travels into the wilderness. We love camping, cooking, and exploring the vast wilderness of North America!

      My brother my advice to you is.... From the bottom of your heart, genuinely ask God to guide you to the truth. Ultimately we all here for a short time... Whether it's perceived as a long short time or short short time. Learn what us Muslims believe about Jesus... And all the other prophets and messengers. Pray well for you. Ameen

      I’ve red stories where people had prostate cancer stag 4 but they changed their diet to natural herbs and organic
      And eating veg raw for nutrition
      He blended foods for about 2 years he had his pictures of being ready for chemotherapy then changed
      Then the doctors are baffled how he did it. He explained and the way he done it and tells his story is amazing !
      He’s a full business man now but I’ll try find link to it.
      You can find stuff like that on RUclips
      I hope this helps and wish you all best hopefully on recovery 🙏

    Park Butte Fire Lookout. I have stayed in this lookout many times with my kids over the last 30 years and have hiked on Easton Glacier many times along the Railroad Grade Trail. I hike these trails every year. My son actually rolled down this hill but not from the top. It was around the side down below. I had to carry his backpack and mine all the way back out to get him to the hospital.

    The ranger lookout on Mt Cardigan in New Hampshire was always wonderful. Besides seeing about 100 miles on a clear day you could feel the tower swaying in the wind . Heavy wind and rain against the windows. I imagine the ranger all alone in the evenings , cold and a bit spooky. Great place for ghost stories.

    Huckleberries saved my life in the Montana Beartooths. I gave 5 of my kids money for food to pack into Silver Lake past Mystic Lake, 18 miles round trip. We build a raft and spent the night on the island on Island Lake. I thought nothing of them buying all candy. Candy sustains kids, not grownups. There was a large area with said berries on the island. I spent an hour eating huckleberries to get my energy back. Then we went to Silver Lake next morning.

    My father-in-law manned a tower in the 1930's in Montana. The tower was torn down but we still have the letters he wrote his parents. He had to hike for his water, food brought in by pack horses. One man in another tower had a working radio and one night once a week he would play the radio over the wires. That was the only music he heard once a week!

    The best backpacking meals are from Mountain house, and my favorite is "beef Strogganoff". Its well worth it.
    Yes they are expensive, but they are light to carry (just add water). The military meals, MRE's (meals ready to eat) are good, plus they also include coffee or drink mixes, toilet paper, and many extras including a way to heat your food. You should try them.

      But they have admitted to having a negative opinion of something that they haven't really tried, which is typical of the most "open-minded" people from Washington. They also need to tell you things like that they brought "brown rice" instead of just "rice", and tried instant coffee for the first time!
