Hiking Bull Creek and Dam Ruins, Checking the Trap

In the first few days of August 2023 my son Brendan and I traveled to Bull Creek in Asheville to check out the old Hydro Electric Ruins and see what the camera trap caught! We also built a picnic table in the forest. Lots of bears in this one!

I decided to create this channel years ago with the hope of sharing my outdoor experiences with only my closest friends and family. That worked for while, until I converted a van. I figured I would do a van conversion tour video for my friends and it accidentally went viral! I was shocked. All of a sudden I had more subscribers.
Realizing the channel could speak to "larger audiences", I started to do more outdoor nature videos to help battle destruction of our lands, watersheds and protect endangered species. I figured I would put a little more effort into things. So I purchased better cameras and upgraded software and learned a bit of video editing. With some technical help from a few friends and some assistance from @LittleLazy, I have become a bit busier here on RUclips. Although the COVID pandemic really slowed me and hurt the channel, I am busier now and creating more content.
I hope you enjoy what I put together. For an old dog, I have learned a few new tricks.
The ultimate goal is to use the van to travel to America's natural and historic areas and share them with you. My desire would be for you to speak up when it counts and support leaders throughout America who will protect and conserve what remains of our natural world.

PS: A little about the van: From October 2018 to May 2019, a 2018 Ram Promaster 2500 cargo van was converted in to a "cabin on wheels". This remains a DIY project completed by a normal guy working a full time gig and spending a ton of "off " time finishing the project and tinkering.

Definitely. It’s a beautiful place. I was also thinking about calling it caffeine Hill in his honor.
