    RUclips may have a limitless amount of content and new videos uploaded daily.... however time and time again I come back to re-watching so many of these wellcrafted and rewatchable episodes that provide a lot of levity and healing. Thanks AA guys❤. This is my absolute number one channel on RUclips.

    For anyone looking to do this trip, schwoons spring is a little past the dry river bed. There are blue blazes (like ranger falls) up a hill. Go a few hundred yards to essentially a cave with the spring. It is probably the most reliable water source in savage gulf. It's pretty neat and worth checking out

    I love your love for the plants and flowers. I was excited when you found the wild ginger. I love those brown velvety blooms. Dutchmen breeches are so delicate and perfectly named. Was hoping for you to find a lady slipper and a jack in the pulpit. So excited when you prepared the Lions Mane. I’ve never found one of those but here in WV we scout for Molly Moochers (morels) in the spring. As an oncology nurse I see so many plants that are used in chemotherapy drugs. Y’all make miso soup look really good. I’m gonna have to try that on my next hike. Love your videos, your laughter and love for God’s earth. Keep hiking and sharing your journey🥾🥾🤎

    Robby's comment about Andrew rationalizing the flavour of his soup was unexpectedly hilarious and made me spit my water out.

      @jeremyecton3659 2 года назад +7

      I was about to make the same comment. I suppose if I knew as much as Andrew about edible plants I would try to eat every edible plant i could and then rationalize why it tastes so awful too lol

    Not sure if you all read all these comments but an update on this place- it’s now the newest state park in TN! The whole of South Cumberland SP was so large and spread out they were having trouble managing it as one so they separated savage gulf (and 733 new acres of land) and made it Savage Gulf State Park!

    Your channel is so unique in the backpacking community. It's not of the "ultralight" "thru-hiker" variety which is refreshing because most of us aren't thru hikers. I need buddies to hike with. It looks more fun than my solo adventures.

    My kids got me into backpacking 13 years ago and my philosophy was to hike as fast and far as you can, camp, pack up and do it again the next day. Taking my grandson as well as newbies has slowed me down. Watching your awesome videos has taught me to enjoy the journey. I now notice the little things - flowers, bugs, the way trees grow, mushrooms (but not making soup anytime soon), etc. Thanks for posting these and giving me a different perspective on backpacking. ❤️

    There is an initiative in the Cumberlands of Tennessee (VA and KY too) to repopulate and grow the original short leaf pine savannah grasslands of the region. Shortleaf and Longleaf pine savannahs are some of the most species rich habits in north America.
    You guys hiked past 3 different species of pine plus the hemlock. Just an idea. The amount of views this channel gets is incredible and would love to see people educated on how the environments and ecosystem once looked before European settlers walked North America.

    So glad you went with the big tent - I swear by them. They're so light and easy to set up now and if you camp in racing, snow etc. you have a place to hang out when you can't be outside. Mine is an 6-person tent with 2 poles (lots of stakes though) - so easy to set up and carry. Love your content.

    Just found your channel while surfing what to watch and I found myself and my husband enjoying watching your videos. Andrew is very knowledgeable about plants, trees, flowers, mushrooms edible and not edible. Andrew said, in one of their videos that he is an amateur Botanist. You made us learned a lot about plants in all your hikings. Thank you. Andrew, you are so smart remembering all those plants including the Scientific names.
    We don't hike but still enjoying watching you 4, Andrew, Robby, Bryan and Thomas.
    Stay safe guys and God bless.

    Savage Gulf/Stone Door are treasures in our middle Tennessee area. I first went there as a youth and go back never often enough. My son’s BSA troop hikes that area regularly. Beginning repelling and rock climbing occur regularly at the bottom of the Stone Door where you started on day 1 and ended on day 4.

I wish I'd have known we would have loved to join you guys. Collins West and Savage Falls ate still on that side. I believe you can get to Savage Falls from Hobbs Cabin. Come back one day, there still several different parts of the Parks across our Mountain. Feiry Gizzard, Foster Falls and Denny Cove. Thank you guys for the beautiful video of my home ❤️ Very Proud of it

    @dirtribbonaddiction 2 года назад +1

    I didnt read all the comments so someone may have already said this. When you left Sawmill to find water you were headed in the right direction but you gave up too soon. If you keep going across the dry creek bed there is a sign that says Schwoon Springs. It is about 1/2 mile from Sawmill, but it's a flowing and beautiful water fall area that disappears into a cave. It seems like it takes forever to get to it from Sawmill cuz you're tired and don't wanna hike anymore but the area itself is well worth seeing! If you head back to Savage, check it out. Great video. Savage is one of my favorite places ever!

I particularly enjoy the camaraderie that you share with each other and with us. I don't get out much anymore and love the length and scope of your adventures.

    Great episode! I feel like a proud Pappa watching yall discover Savage Gulf!! I've been exploring this area since the late 80's. It's where I learned to repell, rock climb, and hike. To get past the wobble rocks you have to walk like you're drunk. There's still much more amazing things to see just in the South Cumberland State Park system let alone the rest of middle TN. Maybe plan a waterfall trip to Fall Creek Falls and Virgin Falls. Robbie knows Virgin Falls!. 👌 great video once again!

    The plane was a T-45 Goshawk. sent a screenshot of it to my friend for an ID. She informed me "it can get close to supersonic, but not actually TO supersonic." It is used to train pilots on how to fly jets. She said from the sound of it, it has an old style turbofan engine, and to the untrained ear - which i think is most people - calling it a supersonic jet or fighter jet "isn't entirely wrong, it's just not as right as it could be." It _is_ a military plane.
    She said: cool spot!

    For the second video in a row, yall have camped at the exact same site I camped. The campsite you guys stopped at in sawmill was the one myself and my boy scout troop camped in. In fact, Bryan boiled water around the same spot I made my instant ramen in 2015. Nostalgia is hitting
