    Deer hunting in the ADKs is a different ball game from what I’ve seen doing my research. I didn’t grow up in a family that hunted but I love to shoot and have plenty of friends that hunt. Always say I’m gonna finally get into it next year. I did get a bolt gun. So maybe next year lol

    • @BrooksandBirches
      @BrooksandBirches  Год назад

      Yeah it is! It’s a completely different level to other types of deer hunting further south but I love the challenger of it and the idea of having the skill to be self reliant in a large wilderness really draws me too it. Especially after Covid! I like the idea of knowing I can always disappear into the Wilderness if I want too

    Happy Thanksgiving Rob!! I was worried you were going to take the "polar bear plunge" before New Years Day. Nest trip across tha creek, take a snorkle! Me and some friends went packing up to Chair Mountain in Colorado. A lake form between 3 peaks to make a lake, and the lake pours down the mountain make the Crystal River. The lake is 14,000 Ft ele. I only had a fishing line, were my buds had real gear to fish. I had no luck and was crossing this creek i had crossed that was about 1 foot deep, but on the way back at the end of the day i stepped off in it where i though I had crossed, wrong,, I went up to my neck is 32.099999 degree water. My toes, barefoot, literally curled up to my heal, and my lungs locked up on empty. It was that same sunset thing, and i could not see how deep it was. Please be careful, haha!

    Hi. I really enjoyed this adventure of yours. You fording that river was pretty exciting as I know at least here, in the PNW (West Cascades), there's a slimy algae that covers most River bottom rocks and it's slick as snot. So you rolled the dice on that one as you could have been like Jeremiah Johnson in that scene where he fell in the river and had to dry himself out in the freezing cold - ha, ha! Anyhow, exciting to watch and you're definitely entertaining. And that ultralight tent ain't exactly a winter tent so that just made everything a little bit more dodgy... good stuff and thanks, enjoyed.

    • @BrooksandBirches
      @BrooksandBirches  Год назад

      There’s the same slimy algae here too! Had to be very careful with the footing so that I didn’t slip, I actually think the smaller rocks helped. If it had been one big slab rock it would have been very hard to stay upright

    I’ve just found your channel and love your content. These camping videos are just so relaxing and put me to sleep at night. Me and my friends used to all go camping and white water rafting in our younger years😂. The reason I’ve chosen to comment is because I’ve noticed you drinking water from streams ( nothing wrong with it), and in another video you’d talked about weird dreams. You may need to do a parasite cleanse. Ya know parasites can do so much damage to our bodies. In insects and even small rodents parasites are responsible for driving some of them to commit suicide. This is the case for the cricket parasite. Anyways, parasites can be killed with a good cleanse or listening to 432 hz, which is the earths natural vibration.
