I don’t know if u still read these after being so long since the hike but I’ve been meaning to message u for almost a year now! I live in Minneapolis and had never hiked aside from as a teenager in Alaska. I’m now 37. I had been doing nothing with my days off for almost 4 years. I one morning this last January was bored going through RUclips and just happen to see yur two videos of the SHT...u instantly had me hooked! I watched your two videos maybe 30 times each along with the rest of yur videos in preparation for spring to get out there and start my journey! I started the SHT in May at the southern terminus and I’ve been heading north. I now get out there and hike section by section every Sunday or Monday or camp out and do both days heading home mondays since I have to work Tuesdays. But man I’m telling ya, u changed my life and I mean that!! I would’ve NEVER thought a year ago I would be a dedicated hiker every weekend and watch hiking RUclips videos all the time! I loved yur videos of yur AT hike!! It was awesome! I just passed Tettegouche State Park with my last hike and left off at Section 13 so I’m just over half way done with the SHT, but I just had to thank u for yur videos. U truly inspired me to get out there. Now I feel like I’ll be a lifelong hiker all thanks to u! Keep the videos coming! I love em!! 🤘🏼
I still read all comments that come in. Glad you are getting outside!
Great video ... I never get tired of the overlooks! And I never get tired of your enthusiasm about hiking. Thanks for sharing this with us!
+mrdonelsonglhs you are welcome and thanks for coming along.
You do an excellent job of giving us a real feel of the trail your doing and your content and editing makes it such a pleasant viewing experience. Love the great attitude, enjoyment and thankfulness that comes across. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
@@FrozensAdventures high falls is the 2nd highest the highest is another waterfall with the same name that’s on the border of Canada
Your meal is from a dutch brand I think ( knorr ) . Nice hike ! Crazy distance !
Only bad thing is that there is no part 3 and 4 lol. Greetings from The Netherlands
Awesome videos! Congrats guys!! Thnx for taking us along on your journey. Really enjoyed both videos!!
Just beautiful! Thanks a million for sharing.
Wow - just wow! Nice job! And thanks for sharing the experience!
I greatly enjoyed this. You did a nice job of covering all the different aspects of the trail. Congrats on completing your planned hike!
It's nice to be able to watch your video with no cussing or swearing. You both have positive attitudes, an upbeat spirit and such a greatfullness to be out in the wild.
Hard to be negative when you are on an adventure.
@@FrozensAdventures The husband and I start out adventure next Sunday. Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains. Can't wait.
Great hike. The videos were awesome. Thanks for taking the time to produce these videos. Take care, Al
Congratulations to both you and Gary!! Love your videos and really appreciate you taking the time and effort to share your experience with us. Fantastic two part video of the trip and really enjoyable pre and post trip videos. Overall just an incredibly entertaining package. You never disappoint.
Congratulations on the accomplishment. I'm glad you enjoyed our beautiful state. Minnesota is a gem.
Loved it!
Wow. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you. Just finished watching your videos about this thru hike
l really enjoyed our hike along Superior, it was fabulous...many thanks you guys
Great set of videos! I'm just learning about thru-hiking and having this trail a few hours away is a real treasure. Thank you for all the information!
Great videos of the SHT! Glad you had a good time up there. I live in Duluth and am watching these in anticipation of getting back on the trail once all this blows over(and after the spring thaw)!
Great video . I rely on your videos when I am unable to get out myself. Keep them coming, and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the awesome content. I came across your videos while considering the SHT for late this spring. Decided to start around Gooseberry (per your advice) and continue on the Border Route on my way to meet friends for a canoe trip. Psyched to push my limits, and your videos are fueling the excitement. Speaking of pushing limits, enjoy the AT man. Looking forward to following!
Awesome video and a great hike! I'm so glad you guys took us along. And I'm just saying, if you do the AT I'm definitely not going to miss a video! Thanks for sharing
Congrats guys ! You nailed it. Thanks for sharing the trail with us
Thanks for coming along with us!
Great job you too I'm glad you guys had a lot of fun and I am extremely glad that you guys took us along with you on your journey
Thanks for watching
Congratulations on completing that. Nicely done!
Miles Left: 0! Really enjoyed the conclusion, even the pre- and post-hike videos. Congrats on your accomplishment. Now on to the AT!
Great trip. Thanks for taking us along!
I watched part 1 and 2. Outstanding vid. Glad you had a great time here in MN.
I took my wife and my 3 teenage kids and a black Lab, From Finland to Silver Bay on the SHT. All in hammocks.3 days In the rain! I just wanted to thank you for reminding me of the trip. (drain pipe, wtf another overlook?) and you're right, that was the best damn bbq sandwich I've ever had.
My kids still talk about it and refer to it as " the Silver Bay death march." - good times.
Haha, I would love to go back and finish up to the NCT cutover
Congrats Jason & Gary! Loved the videos! You guys should be very proud!
We are, it was such a great trip. I still wish we were there.
Nice job guys, that was awesome!! Yeah you wouldnt miss those big ocean ships if you saw them. Thanks for,the ride! I wanna thru hike sht this year.
I watched your entire trip of the SHT and it was awesome!!! I have been recovering from a health issue for the last 3 years so haven't been able to hike, but following you out on the trail made me feel like I was hiking again!!! I am originally from Titusville, PA, and I watched you hike the Gerald trail also at Oil Creek State park. Keep the videos coming!
Hi from Holland, congratulations on finishing this amazing trip
Haha I lost it when you started stomping though the mud. Thanks for sharing! I live in Minnesota!! Thankfully I can stretch out my experiences with the superior hiking trail. Glad people can experience other parts of Minnesota that's not always advertised front page 😁
Great continuation of part 1. I stumbled along your AT 2019 video during the Covid19 crisis which ultimately lead me here. Love your one-liners throughout the trip....."I'm making great time now, 'slosh, slosh, slosh' ". And BTW, I too struggle with rubbernecking at overlooks whether I'm hiking or car touring along scenic drives, it definitely slows me down....thus learning to schedule less and allowing more time to stop for the overlooks! ps, Gary's a great sport with all the impromptu interviews, lol!
Awesome videos. You have inspired me to get out and walk and work up to some longer hikes. Planning on taking a 6.5 mile hike in the next couple weekends. Thanks and I hope you and Gary have many more great hikes together.
Have fun!
Love to see you do a hike at Yosemite. Time to step it up a notch! Love the videos!
I love your videos! You have a great balance between face to face informational and out on the trail. Keep it up.
Thanks Red!
Great job guys! Looks like a fantastic starter for thru-hiking!
Was definitely a good experience to get us ready for longer stuff.
CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH YOU GUYS !!!!!! Looks like it was a great hike . Had it's ups and downs , but that is what it's all about . This inspires me to get out there on the trail . I've just started hiking this year . Thanks for sharing your adventure with us
Thank you!
Just finished watching-- all I can say is: wow! That mud reminded me of my Long Trail, VT trip this past Memorial Day where I experienced mile after mile of it.. beautiful overlooks and great times.. thanks for sharing!
It's really time consuming to walk though that much mud.
Looked like an awesome trip - great video.
Love watching your video. Great job.
Really enjoyed the show. I sit outside by the firepit and feel like I am on the trail with you guys. Great job. Thanks
That's really cool! Glad you enjoyed it
Congrats on your SHT thru hike! 💪 You were totally in your element! And loved the overlooks--no need to apologize for them. 😀 Can't wait to watch your AT thru hike! ☺️
We will see if it happens. I'm thinking it will though.
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH!
Another nice video, thank you for sharing this with us
Excellent production frozen. Gary was ready for a week long sleep after that. I really enjoyed the whole journey. Amazed your feet held up, especially in the muddy days. Well done.
Feet were exceptionally well after the first 5 days. I guess they learn to recover faster
YES!! Bro, you're one of the main RUclipsrs I watch for tips and gear reviews and such for long-distance hikes. I'm doing the AT next year and stuff like this is invaluable to me!
That's awesome, goodluck!
Good luck, man! I did the AT in 2015/16. Best thing I’ve ever done.
Loved both parts of your video. I plan on hiking the SHT as soon as I can. All the videos you did are going to be super helpful. I would love to see a post hike video on lessons learned.
+Neal Raymond check it out in a couple hours. Just got done filming it. I thought it would be beneficial for those that want to do it
I always pack some cheap shower caps to stick on my feet during the muddy sections. 10 for a buck at Dollar Tree.
Great idea. Would think you'd have trouble with them coming off a lot.
enjoyed these videos. beautiful trail
I love the Primanti Bros shout out...i am ready for hockey LGP!!!! Congrats on completing the SHT
Best place for a quick bite ever!
Love your videos man really inspirational
Thanks!
You are awesome! Really love the views on my 90 inch tv, it feels like I am there too! Keep up the good work, you got a new sub!!!😁😁😁
part 1 was so good that when Roxana got home i had her watch part 2 with me on the same day what a Great adventure! congrats on all the miles and thanks so much for taking us with you, another 71 minutes of Awesome!
Wow binge watch! Glad you enjoyed it
yeah it was that good !!
Quite a trip, thanks guys. Loved the overlooks, which gives a good feel for the area. I challenge you to come do the 111 miles Centennial TH in the Black Hills of SD. Lots shorter than the Superior one, but more rugged.
Thanks for taking me along. Sunday the 11th I am spending the night at my sons then we are off to the Mammoth Lake area here in California. Our whole weeks trip is probably less than one of your day hikes. It will be my son, grandson and daughter in law I just hope I don't slow them down too much now that I am an old geezer. This will be my 3 rd year out. Wish I had started when I was younger. Hope to try hammock camping next year. Knowing Shawn he will plan it above the tree line. ha ha This year I think it is 9,000 or 10,000 ft, Glad you are back safe and sound. I have been enjoying your channel thanks. Bruce from the City of Orange in Orange County California.
Not about the mileage, the experience is what matters. Have a great time!
Congratulations! I was doing day hikes on the SHT at the same time - Thanks for sharing!
Shame we didn't run into you!
Awesome trip! thanks for sharing!!
I love your attitude man. Congrats on the thru hike. Awesome videos. Thanks for keeping your shirt on Gary. Lol.
No way! Gary looks awesome🤪
Amazing video...well done guys
Thanks for doing your videos, they are all well done. Have enjoyed your how to videos too. You were talking about the water color, you're correct it is the tannins from the spruce trees. Life long MN resident. Another great hike is Isle Royale National Park in Lake Superior, access through the Upper Peninsula of Michigan avoiding Chicago. The SHT trail is maintained by volunteers. Was built with lots of volunteer work at as well.
We heard great things at a few camps about Isle Royale, maybe one day I'll get to check it out.
I just camped out at oil creek with Gary on Saturday!! Awesome chill guy! Great channel man!!
Haha. You found his channel. Yep, this is the 14 day trip I was talking about. Was fun hanging out with you guys at Oil Creek.
Was he shirtless? I hope not....
Thanks, very well done!! There are only a hand full of SHT thru hike videos, and this is the most helpful for those of us who plan to do it in the future. Chronicling the daily stopping points as well as your resupply points has not really been done by the others.
I've watched most of the SHT videos before I went. Mainly will wood(redbeard,zpacks) and fronkey and yea I wish they would have shown some town footage more.
Yes I have seen them. Keep yours coming. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing all these adventures with us! so happy when I get home from work and find out that there's new "material" out : ) really hope you get to do a Thru hike soon! / Best regards from Sweden!
Wish I could give you videos every day! Thanks for watching from Sweden, making it around the world!
We have some pretty awesome Hiking here aswell! just sayn' :)
Say hi to the Drama queen Gary as well! seems like a really nice dude!
You did a great job in filming the entire thru-hike! I'm glad that you made it up north for a trip and maybe you'll make it up to Michigan someday. Sintax almost came last winter, but they ended up going to the Whites. It would have been a long winter drive for them.
One day I will be in Michigan. Though it's probably going to take me a while, so hopefully my travels take me up there for one reason or another and I just go hike
Start weight 137.5....End weight 137.5.... that's crazy! Now that's what I call calorie intake perfection! Great job you two! I hate that bitter sweet feeling ending a trip... but it sure is damn fun planning the next adventure!
I was so surprised when I hopped on the scale the next morning. It was hard to eat that much food, but like you said my calorie intake was spot on, keep in mind we did bring some extra meals to eat just in case and stopped in town for food on top of what we brought. I probably needed 4000 extra calories somewhere. Everything got eaten in my food bag.
Congrats on the trail. Awesome!!!!
Thanks!
You were basically in my backyard -- in fact, I was nearby in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness while you were on the SHT. I've hiked the stretch from Hwy 1 to Silver Bay (including the drain pipe) a couple of times so was very interested seeing you hike that area. You did it much more quickly than I did. I couldn't understand why you were having so much trouble pronouncing "BEAN" Lake! LOL! I kept shouting the name to you... So glad you enjoyed your trip. I greatly enjoyed both your videos. - Larry
What a great video... Congrats on finishing... I envy you guys, would love to be able to take some time and do something along those lines...
Find a way Jim, and don't regret it.
Other SHT videos didn't do the trail justice. I really enjoyed these 3 videos though. Good job and glad you had a great time out there.
I totally agree.
great views on your 14 day backpacking adventure
Frozen and Gary's excellent adventure!
Party on! Excellent!
Hey i finally found your video! Haha im that dreadlocked thru hiker you met at that campsite the beaver damned up. Awesome videos and it was cool to see myself in the background. Haha
Hey Zakk! Was great to meet you. Gary though he saw your post on r/ultralight we figured it had to be you with a similar itinerary.
It was great meeting you on the trail!
Really have enjoyed walking with you on this hike on my treadmill here in Upstate NY during the winter. My husband and I would like to do some of these hikes. Not sure I’m ready for 14 days but small daily ones to learn. Would like you to share more about your food preparations and things you pack in backpack for cooking, sleeping, etc.
AWESOME VIDEO SERIES Love your videos bro always a good time Thanks for taking us along , You should start a new series "WHERE THE HELL IS GARY" LOL take care Nick
Thanks for watching!
I would love to do a 2 or 3 week hike! Thanks for sharing!
Nicely done.
Awesome footage
You deserve a lot more followers. I appreciate you not drowning out the ambience by piping in music like some other hikers do. Love the sounds of your surroundings and your footsteps.
I'm currently putting music in my videos.
@@FrozensAdventures 😳
I know right! I try to do it tasteful though. I know the the hiking videos you are talking about
Really enjoyed this series. I'm glad that you did a 14 day trip. Very different from your usual trips, and enjoyed it a lot. Would be cool to see you do one like this on the John Muir Trail! You did a good job of editing it. They were long, but less than 1.5hr each. I think you gave good information and shared good locations in a concise way. Thank you for sharing!
I hope to see a look back video. Would be interested in hearing your thoughts on the trip.
I'm trying to film just that today. I think it would be useful for anyone that is planning a longer distance trip that's never done one before. Like I wish we could have watched a video like the one I am filming today.
Outdoor Adventures that I'd exactly right. Very good info in this video series that you're done.
The beard complimenting had me laughing lol. Nice video 👍🏻
They were great beards and then we shaved =P
That trail was awesome.
Awesome video!
Well Jason I feel your happiness about you journey. I toataly enjoyed it. And by the way every view is always welcomed. Nature has a way of healing and renewing your soul. AWESOME HIKE. I will be looking for that informative video of the trip Thank you for the experience. I am so glad you chose not to go with a loud music background it kind a ruins the viewing for me but you always do great editing.
Yea nothing like full blast house music in the middle of a nature video. I made all my music in FL studio strictly for these videos.
Loved it Frozen and Gary! I was glad to know Gary turned out Ok and thanks for sharing your adventure. I agree...you are ready to do the AT someday. You're going to love it. By the way, surprised to see the fastest AT speed record was broken in the past week or two by "Stringbean." 45 Days for all 2,189 miles. Too fast for me to enjoy but everyone hikes their own hike.
Yea I saw that article. I don't think I could ever do it that fast, unassisted too! Don't think I would want to though, he did it to raise awareness for his brother who had cancer I believe or some terminal illness. Had to push fast to make headlines.
Dude you look just like billy bob with your beard! Haha so awesome!
The Drainpipe!!!!!!!... Tettegouche is my fav part of the trail 😎That was Mic Mac Lake
That was a really cool section
I’m watching your videos SHT videos again in honor of watching one year ago and deciding to get out there and get er done! BUT now that I’ve done half the trail I watch and u and Gary skipped past Fault Line Ridge because of the Beaver Bay stop in town and now when I hear u say u don’t think u missed any views I feel so bad for u! It was ALL views!! Lol actually some of the best inland views the guidebook doesn’t tell u about! Hopefully u come back again and hit that area and the southern end! There’s so much to see on the south end of the trail that u missed! Would love to see u out here and hit the SHT again!! Hike on my man! 🤘🏼
Darn! It would have been a very late night if we would have walked out the same way we came in. I plan on doing it again someday and planning out resupply points a little better so I can complete the whole thing and not skip any sections. Something I regret now.
It’s definitely worth the trip! I’d be cool to see u back out here again and maybe meet up for a short section and do some hiking!
So cool you guys loved the trail. Bummer you missed Split Rock, that is one of my favorite spots on the trail. I am all for light weight footwear, but if I am hiking the SHT or mountains heavier boots are a must for me personally. SHT can really do a number on your feet as the conditions almost always are wet in places. This is where I struggle, my boots (Zamerberland Tofane) are BOMB proof, but they really are heavy but my feet stay perfectly dry. I have a few pair of "waterproof" shoes, but they just don't hold up to the punishment of the SHT. I'd like to find a pair of boots that maintain the bomb proofedness , but that are lighter. My boots are more than twice as heavy as shoes. Anyway, SHT is tough, really impressed with your guys effort and seemingly stead fast positive attitude - which is as essential as piece of gear you have. Good videos, good trip - thanks for sharing.
Does your selfie stick attach to your trekking pole? I've never used one.
Altra lone peak 3. Mid neoshell. I have a stickpic attached to my trekking pole. Works well except cold weather.
I relate a lot with gary. He's pretty cool
I'm guessing that giant boulder caught a ride on a glacier.
Nice job guys!!
Thanks!
Thanks for the cool videos of your SHT adventure! I enjoyed watching it! I usually do dayhikes, but I'd really like to try some multi-day-backpacking trips here (in Germany). Unfortunately you're not allowed to camp in the woods here... so you have to go to an official campground with lots of tents an caravans... which I dont like... Anyways - thanks for your videos!
Gabi1342 Go total recon with full camo and face paint. No problem.
Amazing views!
Every day the trail made you glad to be out there. Except day 12, that day sucked =P
First reference to Primanti Bros in Minnesota, that I've ever heard. : )
6:01
Gary's a badass. He okay.
Amazing video. I love the north shore. It's amazing. Just waiting for the announcement that you're taking a leave of absence from work and hiking the AT. When is that video coming out?
Cool video, thanks for spending the time to take us along via video. Living in MN the North Shore is one of my favorite places and I have seen many of the nice water falls along the North Shore all the way to Canada. I have hiked some small parts of the Superior Hiking Trail, around Tettegouche State Park and Bear and Bean Lake. What is the stuff you are using on your feet? I will be hiking Philmont Scout Ranch this summer with our Scout troop and probably should have something for my feet. Thanks again! ~ Steve
+Steven Nelson rocket pure on Amazon. Absolutely love it.
Great video. But remember, "Never leave your Wingman"!
But Goose there's also hike your own hike.
Outdoor Adventures 😂
Congrats man, that was a great accomplishment. Good to know I'm not the only one whose feet looks like crap. After every hike my kids ask me why my feet are so gross. 😂😂
I actually laughed when i took my socks off on day 12 (the day with the mud).
Awesome
