Hiking in the mountains behind my house near Roan Mountain on the North Carolina side. I explore an old house that is about to fade into time and visit a local waterfall.
Winter Time Hike on Roan Mountain! 4K VIDEO @ 60 FPS!
มุมมอง 2213 ปีที่แล้ว
I hiked the Appalachian Trail and the Grassy Ridge spur. This video contains the Peake Monument. The wind is blowing 30-40 mph with wind chills below zero. I shot the video with 4k 60f/s. The views include Avery County Roaring Creek, Grandfather Mountain, Glen Ayre, Tennessee Valley and Mount Mitchell, to name a few. The film was shot in early December and my hike started at Carvers Gap. I brou...
Building a Road Through the Woods with John Deere 650
มุมมอง 376K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Just built a road on our family property with my John Deere 650 bulldozer in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina. This video was shot during the most beautiful time of year - Fall in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The bulldozer is a 1997 John Deere 650G with the forestry package. The winch which was included with forestry package has been a necessity for working in the mountainous terrain.

I have an old Mica mine on my property. It was rumored that old timers found a valuable sapphire in the mine in the elate 1800s. All we found was black mica or biotite. Video is shot with my niece, nephews, and brother.
Hiking To A Plane Crash On Roan Mountain
มุมมอง 2.1K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Hiked to an plane crash site below Roan Mountain Bluff on the North Carolina Tennessee border with my nephew from Montana. The Beechcraft 35 single engine airplane crashed in December of 1988. Sadly, the pilot and two passengers were killed in the crash. The debris field is scattered over a large area in steep and rocky terrain. We found some landing gear, the engine and a large piece of the ch...

Building a Road with a Backhoe in the Mountains

Building a road in the Appalachian mountains with Caterpillar 420D backhoe with four in one bucket. This road was built on my property and was used by the logging company who recently logged the land.
No need to winch
dam! this looks freaky. 😂👍
why are you winching up the hill? that thing will climb until it scares you! wow
When you're pulling in your winch,, you should always have some kind of tension on it.
buddy wouldve been ran off
*Closed beyond this point* “We’re going anyways” 😂😂 incredible
Is this located off of cane creek ?
No but you're close. It's in Glen ayre
Beautiful
Thank you so much!
I don't know price throttle and Granny gear
But like I said I don't know where you're going
Don't know where you're going but you should have went above that tree in the road would have been in a better grade
Try getting a full blade it won't hurt it
I guess you could call that job security cause that right you'll be there a while
Hard on your back but those machines will push a road but you got to give me some fuel
I see why now😅
Going to have to get it wider wider wider
What are you going to travel on that road with not a tractor and trailer log truck
Excavator with a rock paper or a pecker
What are you going to take up goat path
Enjoyed watching this.. done this a lot.. he knows what he's doing.. making every push count..!
Thanks for watching buddy! I appreciate it
The Pucker Factor was a good 8 on my scale.
Beautiful
That's freaking amazing! Looks like a blast
Blow it up your in the woods a few sticks would remove the rock !
Will this road wash away down that steep slope in a heavy rain? How do you reinforce it?
When I worked for the state forestry in GA I ran a dozer exactly like that. Late 90s JD 650. Absolutely my favorite machine
Watched from the Philippines Jan 23 2022 good job
Beautiful woods great video thanks
Thank you for watching!
I would love to have a side xside and take my wife and explore those roads and those beautiful woods that would be so awesome
Wow havent been there in ages. It did used to be a fireplace according to dad. Btw...I'm offended the site of the Historic white pines tree fort hasn't been the subject of one of your videos. 😅 @8:56 I fell down it trying to slide on my butt, still have the scar. The trout were traumatized.
Where does road lead to?
Wow! That was a steep climb! I love cutting in mountain roads. That would have been right up my alley building that one. Nice job!!!
Wow! Beautiful spot on the mountain. Where are you located? Did a great job clearing that off.
You had to winch up that?
That dozer should have been able to climb that no problem. Unless the undercarriage was plum worn out.
How did you get fuel to the equipment up there?
I filled it up before I started and it got most of it put in. What little I needed after that I used a Polaris ranger to haul up there.
as a photographer, I just itch to get a good camera up there, where you were at the 16:15 mark, and make wide photos. I hope you get someone to do that. That's some real beauty
Mitchell county NC valley of the roan mtn
it would be so pretty if you flew a drone with a camera up the creek, to record the falls, in summer, and in winter. It would be epic if you had zip lines and could take them one by one down the many water falls from the top of the mountain to your place
Love living and spending my time in the mountains, awesome job! I kinda wish I had a dozer to reach my favorite bear hunting spots lol.
I’m getting lots of bear pics on the trail cameras up there. The dozer does the trick and the winch has got me out of lots of jams. Thanks for watching
will this road be ok for full size pickup trucks or SUVs??? Or just mid size vehicles that have good 4x4 and low gears??
I’m actually still working on the the switchbacks. It has 3 of them and it’s hard to widen them because the hillside is so steep. Right now only a mid size truck can make the tight turns.
i wonder where that is what state ?
Incredible. It’s crazy how much thicker those rhododendron thickets seem on the ground versus in the air

Need a pair of binoculars to see the bucket 🙄. And position that tractor properly 🙄. And get those revs up! Good greve🙄. Legend has it he is still in those woods.
Crazy to see this. Mikey Malone is my grandpa. It’s been years and years since I was taken to the crash, I was around 8-9 years old. Thanks for the video. RIP Mikey Malone, Lonnie and Bill.
@@davidcook2687 I travel for work and when I’m close I’d like to visit the site again one day. Is there much wreckage left that wasn’t filmed? We have the props and some other smaller pieces, heard you mention looking for them. That would be a tough search unless your in Arkansas lol. What’s the closest you can drive to there? Any info would be appreciated!
Why are you running that thing at idle... you have more control over hydraulics if you learn to run them at operating speed..
U need a bigger dozer for a job like that. A d9 or d10 or a d475 would be perfect to push straight through rocks and all. Your dozer was just too light.
What a mess
