TERRORIZED by FERAL People in the Smoky Mountains!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- FERAL PEOPLE followed and terrorized brothers Brady and Jay while they hiked the Smoky Mountains portion of the Appalachian Trail. This encounter is proof of why it is always best to go into the woods in pairs or groups and is chilling nightmare experience Brady and Jay faced on what was supposed to be a stress-free backpacking trip.

Stories like these reinforce my belief that my notion of "roughing it" is slow room service.
“Slow room service”, I like that!
I'll never understand how people venture out into the wilderness without guns.
If i was given the choice I would always go armed.
@@darkwilderness2392, by the way, you have a new subscriber right here. Love the stories.
@@Nvaus1 AWESOME! Thank you!
@@darkwilderness2392 Just keep the gun out of sight. Firearms are illegal in national parks. I read about a guy who drew two years in federal prison for this.
@@TomHoffman-uw7pf I'm from Canada, so only time I can really be walking around in the woods with a firearm is during hunting seasons.
Always trust your instincts. I was just talking to a friend who felt like she was being watched and stalked in Greece while hiking a trail alone. She had this as she puts it “ irrational” bad feeling but thanks goodness she headed back. Creeped her out big time. I told her that’s your core primal instincts warning you.
Always stay armed, alert, trust no strangers or seemingly “too kind” helpers, have a satellite gps tracker on you if you can afford it and don’t be telling strangers your plans like their your best mates, only tell your actual friends and family of your plans .
That is excellent advice! Well said!
And if you cannot carry a gun put a few medium sized rocks in your pocket.
Exactly, common sense and follow your gut instincts!

Smokeys actually require you to stay at shelters, and section hikers have to make reservations. If there is no space, you still have to pitch your tent close to the shelters. They say it's because of bears.....but maybe they know something else is lurking in the woods.
That’s a good point
Yeah… them wildlings.
They truly are out there.
& they are cannibals.
This is the type of rabbit hole stuff RUclips used to always lead too. I miss the rogue life
Thanks for the comment Madeline.
My uncle Jay loved to hunt ginseng in the mountains of Cocke County Tennessee. He told me one time that he sneaked into the Smokies where he fount more ginseng than a man could sell. He had a China man in Knoxville he would sell it to. The China man named Yang would give uncle Jay marijana joints and cash money. One time Yang give uncle Jay a bad joint and Jay lost his mind. They admitted him to Eastern State Mental hospital in Knoxville where they said he was too far gone. They sent him back home to Cosby where he would dress in aunt Myrna’s clothes and hitch hike to knoxvliie. Aunt Myrna was tore up about all this. She was so disturbed she couldn’t eat and basiclly wasted away. Uncle Jay took to not wearing no clothes around the house, then was arrested hitck hiking naked to Knoxville. When he got out of Eastern State again after a month and sent him home where he took off to the deep woods of the Smokies. Uncle Jay has been tracked by park service but never caught. They apparently have pictures of his skinny naked ass running through laurel thicket. He was last reportedly seen by back country hikers who smelled marijana burning but he ran off. He is a feral human. They do exist
I love this comment! Thanks for sharing that and for the weird image stuck in my head.
Is this a true story ,or is it your wild imagination?
Never go anywhere without a gun, ive ran into some shady people hiking, and seen alot of bears. I love the woods but wouldn't go to far in without a gun
I wish we had that option up here. Usually stuck with bear spray and a bowie or K-Bar.
@@darkwilderness2392 . That sucks, we have it here in Tennessee for now. Where are you
@@D-A-1776 I am up in Manitoba Canada. Our current PM banned a ton of fire arms the past year, and its only going to get worse. Uses the excuse its to reduce gun crime while failing to realize criminals dont go buy their weapons through the regular channels and register them. Drives me crazy being a 14 year vet of the Canadian Forces and not being able to own or use weapons that i have extensive training and experience with. But thats a whole other conversation LOL
@@darkwilderness2392 at the very least get a cold steel baor spear and borang or bow and arrows

If you look at the area between TN and NC on google earth there are huge areas of forest with just a few gravel roads. I've been on those roads and they are pretty well maintained, but there are no homes or fields, just forest. Feral people could hear a car approaching and have 5-10 mins to move out of sight.
well said!
Sounds like it is time to go on an fact-finding expedition with a few like minded individuals and conduct an investigation. A couple of night vision devices and infrared light sources and video gear. Maybe some cattle prods and stun sticks. Could be very interesting. A couple of well trained large dogs for companionship would be an asset as well. Inquiring minds want to know !
I’d probably be down for that if I didn’t live so far away. a bit of a drive from Manitoba.
I'd love to, sounds like fun!
and u will find nothing.
I believe they're giving date and time I got two great dogs that will be wonderful for companionship
I would imagine as a feral forest person, a rain catch set up like the one stolen would be a valuable item. Makes sense they took it.
Great point! Thanks for the comment!
Smith & Wesson .500 magnum is my trail accessory of choice 😉👌
I like it! Closest I’ll come to that though is a picture of one… banned up here now
Overkill….. That first shot may not hit and a precise follow up shot is likely going to happen either if you’re not capable of that caliber! Revolver wise, I’d have .357 Magnum, .38 +P or .45 Colt. Semi auto wise….. I’d have 9mm, 40S&W, .357 Sig or 10mm might be a better choice plus, you have capacity…… 🤷🏾♂️
Shoot, any gun would be better than a hatchet and a knife like those guys had I'll be damned if i ever go into those woods without some sort of firearm. That is a hell of a gun though. ha
@@robertbell387 Yup! Wish I could have one LOL
I put a red dot sight on my .500!
Found a handmade stuffed animal next to a makeshift shelter in the mountains of Kentucky once. Oh and I still have the stuffed animal.
That’s creepy! Thanks for sharing that.
As always humans can be the most dangerous species. I have never heard of these feral people before. Creepy for sure.
There are a lot of reports of them along the Appalachian Trail and the Pacific Cost Trail. Lots of people go missing along those trails every year as well. Kind of makes you wonder.
I've lived around the Smoky mountains my entire life. I live in Maryville TN. I've heard some crazy stuff in these mountains. All these people that moved here from California going to get some surprises once I go up camping out in the middle of the nowhere around here. Could go camping on the backside of chilhowee lake. Better have a big gun. Better stay away from chigger beach. If you hear banjo's you better leave quick. You better watch hiking through the middle of somebody's ginseng patch too and definitely don't want to run through some old rednecks little patch of mountain buds cuz they'll have some booby traps for you and you might be missing a leg. And if that happens there's a high probability you're going to get eaten alive by the wild boars.
Thanks for the comment! That last part made me picture that scene from The Beach when they ended up in that pot field.
@ryanwaddell6278 I remember popcorn Sutton had a run in with these feral people when he was a teenager outside Maggie Valley. Popcorn actually shot at them.
@@alexcobb880 old popcorn Sutton may he rest in peace . That man could make some damn good liquor. Had the privilege and honor to sip on some of that fine shine. On a real note though. These hills do have eyes.
@ryanwaddell6278 Popcorn could make some good shine. But had country as he was. When he moved from Maggie Valley to Cocke County Tennessee. I remember once he told. There are things in these mountains at night. You hear noises you don't know what it is and you don't want to know what it is. Popcorn said when he was a teenager. One of these feral people were snooping around his barn. Even has Country as popcorn was he would not go out into the mountains alone at night.
@@alexcobb880 This Popcorn sounds like an interesting fellow
I grew up not far from the Appalachian Trail in Pawling, New York. I remember some feral looking hikers that had gotten lost coming out of the woods near our house. I remember seeing the hikers in town when they came off the trail to get something to eat or get supplies. They were always friendly enough, but I am sure there’s a few creeps out there on the trail.
This is true! I have a brother-in-law who hunts, and he's mentioned the feral people in the Smoky Mountains! There are also stories of people who go missing in there as well! You're correct, about going in a larger group! Appreciate the great story! 😱
Thanks Isaiah. There are a ton of missing persons cases in the Smokies, and numerous fit into Dave’s Missing 411 criteria as well. Makes you wonder.
Prove it!!!!
@@Bill-m6iNo you go out and get the videos
There are feral people in cities, more animal than human, they live on our streets, commit terrible crimes without conscious.m
there are some pretty shady people out there.
thanks for the comment!
That's a very ignorant comment. It has nothing to do with this video, I grew up in the city and moved to the mountains. I feel safer back in the city.
@@dinarusso3320 not ignorant at all. Certain areas in the inner cities , people do act feral, they act worse than wild animals with rabies. Monster is a better description. If you felt safer in the city, then go back😮
That's scary! Great job telling this story. Keep it up!
Thank you! i have another one uploading tomorrow morning, hope you check it out.
I will
@@crystalwing Thanks!!
Interesting story. Good delivery. Enjoyable. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words, very much appreciated!
We are seeing dark figures darting through the trees and staring at us proceeds to continue the hike 😂 they even pass a used shelter at the very least I would have stopped there. But most likely headed back and left always another trail to travel on and camp on not worth the risk!
I would have gotten out of there as quick as possible. Thanks for the comment
Are these possibly indigenous people? Especially since they had their own language. Im just wondering because most of the "hillbilly" people come from English speaking countries. Or if they were originally Irish immigrant stock they could have been speaking Gaelic 🤷🏼♀️.
interesting theory!
They could be rogue people descended from Cherokee with European genetic traits. This was common at one point due to European diseases wiping out native genes and favoring European genes while not affecting culture and language.
Descendants of some Scots-Irish that made the Appalachians their home.
Mr. Ballan tells a similar story of a young man solo hiking and camping in, I believe, the Smokies, who encountered weird forest people all dressed in white who followed him day after day for miles. He ended up dropping much of his gear and running until he reached a town where he told the police. These people seem to have developed some sort of sixth sense to navigate through the forest at night and locate campers, then disappear when necessary.
Your story, and the other, really unnerved me. It's people like this when you're alone in the middle of nowhere that scare me.
thanks! I know that story Jon told it’s freaky.
Love the story! As a camping family we Aways carry… just in case. It’s a crazy world out there!!
Just sub’d 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Thank you! and that’s a very smart idea, always better safe than sorry.
I fully believe that the massive amount of disappearances are directly the cause of some form of hominid species that inhabits the cave systems of North America. It explains why the maps of disappearances and the maps of caves line up almost exactly. Most the major cave systems are uncharted to this day.
A lot of Missing 411 cases do seem to line up with that theory in my opinion.
I use to live in NC and it is bad with those types of people.....very weird but they really do exsist!!!!
Have you ever seen them or had an encounter?
Feral people have always fascinated me ever since I saw the original Hills Have Eyes.
I think they're just as scary, if not more so, as most cryptids.
I actually never finished that movie. I rage turned it off at the trailer scene. Not a lot of things in life really get to me, but that scene caused me to be physically angry. Same with last house on the left., that one pissed me off as well.
@@darkwilderness2392last house on the left was tough remember my friend telling me the beginning if you get through or skip it the revenge is sweet but good lord I don’t think I can watch that movie ever again
Reminds me of the movie "Deliverance"😱
Now im going to have "squeal piggy" stuck in my head all day....
I would imagine as a feral forest person, a rain catch set up like the one stolen would be a valuable item. Makes sense they took it.
Great point!
That was a great video. Way better then the AI voice and no video on some of the other channels that cover these cryptid subjects.
Thank you! That is very much appreciated!
My hiking group consists of me, my Glock 19, with 3 spare mags, and my 2 Belgian Malinois, Ingrid and Astrid! Both my dogs are fully trained protection dogs.
That is one good sounding hiking group! Pretty sure my Husky Cross would just flop on her back for belly rubs LOL
Thanks for the comment!
@@darkwilderness2392 I have a Malamute that’s the same way. All she wants is treats and belly rubs
@@stevepauley2437 Awesome dogs though.
Confession: once on a 48 hour hike, I slept so sparingly, I'd nap during the day but was WIDE awake during the night. No, weird encounters, just cant trust the wilderness.
To be honest, when I use to do a lot of back country camping during my back country fishing trips I always had a hard time sleeping the first night but that could have been from excitement. Thanks for sharing!
That's one wild story! You're a great story teller I really enjoyed your channel..
Thanks Brian! hearing stuff like that makes my day. Very much appreciated.
I wonder what would have happened if one of them would have been alone. Glad we will never have to know.
Likely nothing good. I am glad they both made it out of there.
Running after her was a dumb thing to do! If she needed help she wouldn't run away! This is how people become missing persons! No common sense!
Each person reacts differently in situations. My personal thought would have been it was a classic "bait and ambush" play, but that might just be the ex military side of me.
pretty cool story. thanks for sharing! I'd heard of these people before. I know a gypsy who travels by bike all over the country, mostly barefoot, with the bare essentials, and he told me about these small communities he had come in contact with, deep in the woods. he's the type to blend right in lol but yea that's how he described them. like cave people. their own language. matted and dredded hair, covered in mud. they probably cover themselves in red ocre, as well. vultures do it to mask their scent. he didn't say anything about them being nightcrawlers, although I believe it, and am not surprised.
Thanks!
I've learned to trust my gut/Spidey sense.
Yup! Me too bud
Good stuff man. Subbed.
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it!
I'm honestly starting to believe you'd be safer taking a week's holidays in the streets of Chicago than going in these national parks in America, good grief man.
Right? Although I have been to Chicago (many years ago) and compared to my home city I felt pretty overwhelmed. I am much more at home in the woods than in a heavily populated urban environment like that.
56 people shot on the Lakeshore beach on Memorial Day. Chicago is definitely more dangerous
Tom - You first.
The odds of getting killed in Chicago, no matter what color you are, are thousands of times higher than taking a hike in any forest. Millions upon millions take hikes every year there without incident.
People just cannot comprehend how dangerous mountain lions are. They kill without trace or tracks many times and can eat their victims in the trees without much blood evidence taking below because they lick the blood up. They can leap 40 to 50 feet horizontally and 35 feet straight up silently. Not many species of cat hunt people but mountain lions do. They are abundant in the west, sometimes in packs of 3 to 5. And they learn.
AND many years ago, about 20, they reintroduced wolves into TN, and other surrounding states. Another killer of man.... and very efficient and hard to track unless you're very good.
@@STho205 That is heart breaking.
Nahh!
I'm glad they didn't start another fire in our mountains. Recovering from the 2016 fire was enough to build back from.
I hear you on wildfires. We have had some bad ones up here this year. last few years have been pretty bad. 2 years ago fires went right through my hunting area and another one stopped just shy of a property i look after and hunt that belongs to a good family friend. One started by quads and one by someone tossing a smoke out the window.
@@darkwilderness2392 the wild fires that hit here started from a lightning strike an unusual hurricane force winds. 14 people were lost to the fires and billions in property damage. The downtown city of Gatlinburg was spared because multiple fire departments from Tennessee came and kept water sprayed on the buildings. fire engines couldn't navigate the steep curvy roads engulfed in fire on both sides or get around abandoned vehicles where people actually ran for it.. Many friends and family lost everything.
Yeah that drought them high winds just had perfect timing for that fire. I work on rewiring a bunch of the cabins that burnt down.
@@jeanninejones8350 Damn, that is brutal. My heart goes out to those folks who were affected by that.
Born and raised in Chattanooga TN. Gatlinburg, Newfound Gap, Cherokee...all was where I spent so much of my life.I completely understand what these guys went through. I've gone far up the Appalachian Trail, never stayed...always felt like an outsider
Thanks Cynthia. Growing up in that area, did you ever hear any local stories about encounters with these type of people?
@@darkwilderness2392 yes, feral people is common knowledge in those mountains. There's a lot on inbreeding. They live off the land. Many people believe the Dennis Martin disappearance was a feral man. It's a horribly sad case but fascinating. You can look it up here on RUclips.
Hunter from Northern Ontario.
We have stories about the Wendigo, a person driven to eat human flesh.
There are alot of stories from up in Northern Ontario, and some of the stories from the first nations residents up there are pretty interesting.
Can confirm, and some get pretty dark pretty quick.
That they can.
New sub..... Great story thank you.
Thank you so much!
That creeps me out.
Same here!
Ya that’s creepy as hell.
@@spartanwpg6880 I second that
On a positive note, I bet that guy forgot all about his bad breakup. 😂
I experienced something in the woods probably 35 years ago that's stuck with me. Nothing bad happened, just odd. I'll write it up and post it here later.
I guess that is a positive outcome LOL
haha. Gave him a new outlook on life, no doubt.

Thank you so much!!
Probably an ancient lost tribe. And that's their land. Does anybody out there know what I'm talking about ?.
That is very possible.
I live in Avery county NC. Ive been all over these Mnts nite and day alone from Alabama to Tenn all the way up to West Virginia and ive never seen such creatures you describe all i see is dirt poor people trying to live and keep outsiders from taking pics and annoying them as if life isnt tough enough for them. Leave those people alone and they will leave you alone. I admit they can b scary when you happen upon their homesteads unannounced just like any of us can b. Trespassers deserve NO mercy!!
I agree to an extent about leaving alone and being left alone. With the number of reports, missing and murdered people along some of these trails, it does make you wonder if these people living off the grid could be responsible.
@@darkwilderness2392 they could have bt most are peaceful and very ashamed and don't want anyone to know they even exist. They didn't look for these people these people came looking for them for entertainment if they are responsible so b it. I never had a problem with dirt poor Mnt folk just the tourist that buy property and think they own the place. Thanks for your time bud and thanks for the vids! I subscribed to your channel ✌️
@@idratherbflyingthesaucer6270 Thanks buddy!
It's Newfound Gap not Newport Gap. Also, in the Smoky Mountain National Park, you must stay in the shelters if hiking in the park. No cowboy camping (off trail camping) is allowed unless you have a back country permit. Rules are in place for a reason, to keep everyone safe.
Hi Cynthia, that could be my bad. I commit the stories im share to memory before recording them and dont use scripts. I likely got the names mixed up in my head while telling the encounter and didnt realize. Thank you for the clarification. Also very interesting about the camping regulations.

Sounds like these two just like to say they’re very experienced outdoorsman because they prob truly believe they are but in reality they are incredibly inexperienced with deep woods far from any roads, trails, and other people. 99.9% of all humans that like to spend their time outdoors even those that hunt regularly every year and have for decades will never go more than a few hundred yards up to a mile from their vehicle or roads/trails and will never truly go out into the true wilderness miles and miles from anything where other humans only go if they randomly happen to pass through those areas or they’re lost.
I agree with most people staying close to their vehicles or established trails. Not often I run into signs of people in some of the places I hunt.
Thank you for the comment!
I agree 💯
Almost as exciting as when I saw it on "The Lost Colony", Daniel Boone 1966. All that was missing is finding the ancient gravestone.
Good story.

As a trekker of the AT you carry a hand gun of the largest caliber you can handle & stay away from those shelters......

From my understanding of Dogman they dont transform from people like Werewolves do according to lore. Interesting theory though.
I'm really interested in this topic of "feral people" Any suggestions? thx!
There is a fair bit on them on you tube form what ive seen. I actually filmed a new episode last night that I am editing this evening that involves a couples encounter with these people out by Tapoco.
Yes. Head out to the Appalachian trail and go 'bout a mile off trail. let them find you and then you can interview them. They seem keen on the subject.
You gotta be a damn genius to go running after a woman looking that crazy. Ain't no way in hell
I sure wouldn’t go running after her, that’s for sure.
@@darkwilderness2392 Me neither
They say you shouldn't and don't need a gun on that trail. I say you a fool if you don't take protect. Some hikers say they get scared of people with a gun. Cool it not only is for protection but if you get lost it can be used to find you. But don't go alone hiking, take a GPS with you, tell people your route, take a gun. Let the babies cry..
I wouldnt attempt that trail without one after all the stories i have heard! Thank you so much for the comment.
It's just common sense to bring a firearm in the woods. I don't care what other hikers are afraid of, people have a right to protect themselves.
@@dinarusso3320 Tell that to the current Canadian government! Wish we had that option up here.
I have a hard time believing that anyone with lots of experience and hundreds of hours or more spent in the wilderness hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, etc, would ever just think it’s normal humans able to silently dart around in the thick wooded forests while following them effortlessly even tho the others were of trail and the two brothers were on trail moving twice as fast as anyone could off trail because theyre walking in a clear defined path with no obstacles, etc. Also, it’s clear that they came because the two perused the woman chasing her and considered them a possible threat after her call for help but initially they were just scavenging and looting the peoples stuff who are the only ones that come through those area regularly other than clearly armed hunters and I’m sure they know that the trail hikers have lots of food, water, and other possessions that are useful to them surviving in the wilds.
Very interesting point about knowing hikers would be carrying food and useful items. That's been my thoughts as well ever since I started hearing stories like this.

I’f your talking about the sub titles they are auto generated by RUclips, not typed by me.
So are these feral people simply curious thieves who like to just look at campers and take an item or two or are they known to become violent. Maybe they were just trying to figure out if they would like to join them for dinner ?
Thanks for the comment Paul. There are a lot of reports floating around of them being violent. Heard a few over the years of them apparently even attacking park rangers.
Or maybe just cook the campers for dinner...

Always operating tactical and always armed, only way to avoid crazies. Shotgun or rifle and a .357, plus a folder and large blade to avoid axes. Again always discrete.

Gotta love AR's
Yea I think if someone brought a pair of dogo argentinos and a rifle w optics and bye bye ferel people
Why is everyone's first instinct = fear, the woods people were probably hungry, they never tried to hurt the brothers when they could have, everybody likes food, and thats food for thought 🤔

A lot of people these days certainly do not understand the concept of "pack it in, pack it out" that is for sure. Should see Lake Winnipeg's south basin in the spring once the ice is gone, empty minnow containers washed up all over the shore from the 10 000 plus people out on the lake ice fishing.

@@michaelhamilton7908 Mine is a little thing I like to call "hope nothing happens", since we aren't allowed to carry up here.
@darkwilderness2392 I feel for you up there I really do insane the people that don't want you to protect yourself has all the protection they need it's a real shame.
@@michaelhamilton7908 Ya its kind of a weird situation. I'm glad I have hand to hand training from the military to fall back on, but would feel alot better if my wife was able to carry something to protect herself and the kids. Even if it was just mace... which is also illegal up here, unless its bear spray and your in the woods...
I guess that is one of those new woke names for Hillbillys,Feral people. Sounds so mysterious.
From the sounds of it, they are 2 different types of people.
@@darkwilderness2392 true,meth head hillbillys are the worst.
100% nope
Yup!
😢 This is the boat biggest lie that I have ever seen on youtube. I have lived in the Smoky mountains my whole life, I hike and dig roots and have hunted alone and with others.my whole family has done the same thing for generations. I've literally fallen asleep in the mountains while sitting on the ground beside a tree and wake up in the middle of the night. To me this just someone making up a story like big foot just to get views. It's going to be the same thing as big foot, they are never going to be able to actually show you one except a fake.
There are countless stories from that area. Not everyone can be making them up.
Bigfoot!!!!!!!! Ànd now this, thousands of people walking the AP trail every year, ask them if they actually encountered even one. Show me the proof or shut up .
I always travel in a pack. I have my 45 acp with 14 round capacity and two spare 13 round mags. Plus p ammo and a machete.
Smart man! Jealous though... I cant have that up here, and trust me, I want one!

This guy could not talk if you tied his hands down lol
Im a hand talker, and that’s how I tell stories… thanks for the comment
I like your content, work on the look
Thanks, and i am open to suggestions.
In the West in the Black Hills also.
now im curious.
@@darkwilderness2392 - I live in West SD off 90, about 5 miles from the city, in the Black Hills, within 1 mile of the deep wild. Here, when you're 1 mile out of the city, you're in the deep woods. We have every imaginable kind of deer, white tail, antelope, elk, mule, bison and occasionally moose. We have lots of mountain lion, lynx, bobcat, fox, coyote in abundance, bear are returning and people are now seeing large wolves. Predators galore. And here the bald eagle lives peacefully with the golden eagle. I guess that's an odd thing.
But more than that there are a lot of rumors of wild people in the mountains, caves (of which we have a lot, some say many are connected for a few hundred miles) and holes in the ground. I never go anywhere without at least 1 gun, several magazines for it and a few large pocket knives. Some say there are cannibals here and people can disappear easily. I'm sure there are many reasons for that but the rumor keeps me watchful. And I notice people like dogs here.
When you go off the main road up the hills you can see how anything could hide here. It's almost like the time of the dinosaurs. The land is strange, primitive and very odd, jutting rock formations are everywhere. The area behind Mount Rushmore looks like the moon, very foreign. Beautiful but odd. Caves everywhere.... absolutely everywhere....
@@redfaux74 That sounds incredible. Where I live its pretty flat until you get to the eastern side of the province.
@@darkwilderness2392 - Where I'm from, northern Ohio, is very flat. But I'm glad I got away from the big city and tons of people. I like it deep out west. If you ever get a chance to drive thru Spearfish Canyon, SD.... I suggest you do and take your time. It's a good hour and a half. Cameras cannot capture it.
@@redfaux74 I will need to add that to the bucket list
MTG's kinfolk.
Forgive me, but that’s MTG?
There all over west Virginia. I know first hand. Not friendly either.
Have you seen/encountered them?
@@darkwilderness2392 yes I have.
Has anyone got any pictures of them?
@@shellydrelly my dad had some on his deer cam I think
@@erica4you If he posted these to the internet that would change the whole world
like your deer head
Thanks. Hes held up pretty good over the years. Got him when I was 17.
Taste like Turkey 😂
This ia America and the mountains are in America........use miles!
thanks for the comment. force of habit being Canadian, I always convert to KM’s.
@@darkwilderness2392 It's time we learn the metric system here because one day it will be used here.
