Great job doing your trip in june 2025

This is the location of My and my Brother's Sasquatch encounter when we were 16 and 15 years old respectively. Utterly terrifying. It happened 45 years ago. It was a 4 day trip and it was in the middle of the week. It was spring and everything was blooming and greening up like crazy. We encountered not a single person those four days. At that time I'm not sure the Stratton Bald alternate trail even existed. It's only a two mile trail and makes the summit quite easy to reach. Maybe that's why we encountered so few people in our early trips. We took the Naked Ground trail early that first morning and if you have ever done that hike it's easily 8 hours and can be brutal at the swithbacks before you reach the ridge where the Haoe, Naked Ground, and Slickrock Creek trails all meet. It stormed and rained all day! We were soaking wet, tired and hungry when we got to the ridge, but our plan was still to summit the bald so we took a left on the Haoe. We arrived on the bald as weather was moving in. Our previous plan was to camp on the summit but we didn't want to get struck by lightning so we walked probably 100 or so yards back down the trail and set up the tent on the ridge surrounded by a stand of birch trees. We ate and crashed. I remember waking up soon after having to relieve myself and it was dark by now. I grabbed the flashlight and as I got out of the tent I realized I couldn't see two feet in front of me. We were in a cloud at this point. I got back in the tent and was out instantly. Then it happened. I don't know how long we had been asleep but a violent thud happened. In the ground. It was under our backs. Like a huge root of a tree being popped by a bulldozer! Then silence. I knew my brother was awake but we said not a word to eachother. Then what happened next was what I can only describe as shallow roots being pulled up like spiderwebs. That's the only way I can describe it. It got silent again for a moment. Then I started feeling the ground moving like kneading dough. Like footsteps with no sound. Weight. Our grandparents when we were kids had a dairy cow and when they were showing us kids how to milk I remember being terrified of how big this cow was and thinking it could step on me. I remember feeling the ground in the barn go down when it stepped as we were milking. That's what I felt as this individual stepped within inches of our heads outside the tent. Nothing else happened that night. We woke up the next morning to roots everywhere. We were rattled. Didn't speak of it for the moment, but I will leave you with a couple notes here. Hiking back down the Haoe trail, just before the Naked ground Slickrock intersection we walked up on a pile of human looking feces golf ball size in diameter a foot tall in the middle of the trail! I apologize for being so graphic. Note: 2. At the trailhead when we arrived at Joyce Kilmer/Naked Ground trail there was a posting that stated an elderly couple were killed by a bear while fishing in Slickwater creek. I have tried to verify that on the internet and was not able to. Just wanted to share this with this channel out of appreciation for this very video!

Are reservations required to camp in the shelters?

As a kid who grew up in Newton County, GA in the 80's, this is in insane. I was thrashing a railroad tie and PVC launch ramp. Tis video rules!

Love this and a slam section 💚 greetings from Ireland

YESSSSSS!!!! My favorite independent film channel on UA-cam.

Awesome video. Is there a reason you guys took 4 days to do the loop or could you have done it in less time? Thanks!

Awesome vid! Couldn't imagine a better place to watch the eclipse. Looks like you guys had a blast.

Great job

Great trip!!! Hope you all are doing great

Absolutely loved this video. The chair pranks had me in stitches 😂😂😂

somebodys been feeding jogi

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing. I am inspired to try a portion of the Traverse myself soon!

I've been on this River dozens of times over the last 45 years. Seen lots of changes mostly the amount of people that come here now I hope it doesn't get destroyed and that people respect the river and only leave their footprints

Thanks I’ve been trying to explain to people the difficulties of this trail

I did the whole river in 1997 when I was 17. Thank you for making this video. It really brought back a-lot of memories for me.

🎉❤❤❤❤ love it

Did you put in at Highway 74? cause I can't find where highway 18 is. Either way great video nice and relaxing. Great way to bring in spring time.

Who the f*ck is Sturgill Simpson 🤘🤘

Of course, out of the all different vehicles, the jeep is the one to break down, is that what they mean when they say it’s a jeep thing

Excellent video! We’re looking to do this type of trail soon on the Buffalo. What days were you on the River? I’ve heard a lot about it being busy during the summer, did you experience that at all or were your camps not near any of the weekender areas? Any other tips you can provide are greatly appreciated. We’re in the Atlanta area too 🛶

Great video

What an amazing ride Thanks for sharing!

Only 8 comments… this was great. Thanks

We have camped at all of these sites in the Swamp and seeing your video brought back some great memories. -I too have a camera at the bottom of that swamp, but just as I was about to go in after mine, a gator swam past the front of my canoe, about 10 yards from me. SMH. The camera is still there, 12 years later. - I have picture of my buddy napping in his zero gravity chair, with a gator sitting in the water right behind him, that I took at Canal Run. Surely it isn't the same gator, before it lost its eye??? We went to the Swamp, every year for 10 years, prior to Covid, then we just never have made it back...but we have secured our permits for a trip coming up next month! Looking forward to getting back in the Swamp! Very well shot, edited, and narrated video. I enjoyed watching it. Thanks for sharing.

Hey where did you put in? I know is says HWY 18 but I don’t see that on google maps. Is it Hwy 74 near river cove rd?

So nice to see this stretch of river i love so much getting some attention here on UA-cam.

Really enjoyed this "movie"! Good vibes! Thanks for posting this!

except for the snake....pretty cool

Oh put the fuckers for nuremberg code they are discgracing stacey

Very well done!

We canoe-camped down the Suwannee many times in the 1970's. Would like to do it now with all the organized facilities. I remember all the sights you showed, swimming thru the tunnel at Telford Spring and Troy Spring had the hull of a paddle-wheeler.

I admire the fact that the entire family is together enjoying the outdoors. I plan to run the GA traverse this thanksgiving! happy holidays

10/29/23… A blue Blue Hole and Pobiddy to 18…what a classic stretch of memory lane. B.

The most incredible thing is the size and age range of your group. Do you have a name like the Pirate Paddlers?

The trick is not to get drunk, but let the nature do the work. But I am bringing a case for 2 weeks on the River, just in case.

Nice trip, good coverage and musical to match Can't believe how many bodies in those vehicles :(

It is people like you that are destroying this place. I live here. You drive your vehicles through our waterways and have no respect for nature. Y'all make me sick.

Great videos! Any more trips planned?

This river is Like Home to me, so glad y'all are very respectful of where you camp.

This is a cool trip! I enjoyed the video… lots of logistics on this one! I’d love to chat about some of the work and planning that went into this….great video!

great video work and photography im subscribing to see what else you got thanks for your work

Only ONE Land Cruiser?

I live in Cherry log and I am going to have to do this soon.looks a lot of fun. Love the outdoors !

I live on the hill above the Pink Pig BBQ Restaurant and I've not heard about this. But the , I'm 85 so why would I?

My favorite hike ever!

You do amazing work on your videos. Great job of capturing the vibes. You really seem to have a talent for this. I imagine great things from you down the road and look forward to more.
