Marble Rock is a gorgeous location for a hike! I love rocks so on any of our trips I always bring a souvenir rock home. The Juniper berries are also a favorite. Not only are the Juniper trees and contrasting berries beautiful, they smell amazing. I am usually on the look out for snakes too, but I'm with Arnie! I am quite terrified of even the smallest! Thanks so much guys for taking us along. That was a bit more challenging and I loved all the scenery. Stay safe!🙏❤🇺🇸
Oh, I forgot to mention that there is a great hiking channel called "boring old guy" that reminds me of your wanderings. Viewers who enjoy this might enjoy his, too.
My favorite hiking only channel is Desert Drifter. Especially cool because he respectfully looks at evidence of formerly inhabited native peoples in the US.
Good evening Arnie and Lynn our wandering shepherds. Mushrooms and berries on this hike. Even when a tree is down it provides life for the mushrooms. Don’t those mushrooms look like gnome homes. Juniper berries can definitely be eaten and can be used in seasoning. I read up on the Canadian Shield.That was super interesting. The mushroom on the side of the tree looks like a piece of wood like a dinner plate. I believe what you identified as juniper berries were exactly what they were. I like Arnies idea about why the bark on the walnut tree is like that. Going for a hike is exactly what you both need. What a cool stream. Lynn that was funny. I heard the acorns. Time for winter gathering. Now that is a super rocky part of the trail. Nature is such a wonderful interior decorator. Wow. Now that is a cool find Mr Porcupine. I have never seen one closeup like that. Great great video. Big big hugs to you both. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😉😉😉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yup, that’s Juniper (Juniperus virginiana), also called Easter Red Cedar. The berries are actually its cones, believe it or not! And most of them are dioecious, which means there are boy trees and girl trees. Totally agree with Arnie about the post-hike shower! There’s nothing like it.
Your wandering today was fine, nature is beautiful, and there were also woodland animals, and of course mushrooms, I also as I walk around the forest taking pictures of mushrooms and perhaps interesting trees and stumps. It was a nice walk, the trail was pretty rough in places. I walked about 5km and 140 steps today when I was leading two families up the castle, and now I'm rubbing my knee and watching you walk over the roots and on the rocks and I'm looking forward to where you're going next. Sincerely, The Krasava
Thx for taking us along hiking the Marble Rock Trail. It was treacherously beautiful. The blue juniper berries are not really berries; they are actually a type of spongy cone like those that grow on other pine trees. The variety of mushrooms was truly astonishing. It makes me think about the people long ago who experimented to find out which were edible, and unfortunately which were poisonous. The velvety ones growing on the logs are wood ears and are edible...or so they say.
@@EwetopiaFarms We have it here behind my house, it has choked out very old and very large pines right behind my house and have almost killed all these pines. Very sad...
Lynn: Sounds of Nature vs. Sounds of Arnie Arnie: Lynn’s kinda short so she probably won’t see these… I’m not gonna tell her… oh no! Don’t show Lynn the mushrooms!!! Me: LOLOLOL…(as I run to the bathroom) You guys crack me up! 🤣 Lynn you have a great eye for photography. Hey Arnie that was a really good ending! Thanks so very much for sharing! I’m in a wheelchair outside so this is the only way I’ll ever get to see juniper berries growing on the Canadian Shield. Sending love from Hawaii island. 😘❤️ 🫶🤙
i love nature too, but i'm no expert either? They look like a breed of juniper but i could be wrong? They are lovely with thier brillant blue berries that are very toxic to people but not birds.
Happy Sunday !!!
🌹🌹🌹🌹
What a lovely place. So comforting to know there are still such beautiful places in our world. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Wish I could still do things like that. Very beautiful. Thanks Lynn and Arnie.
Our pleasure!

I'll check it out!
Such a beautiful and relaxing presentation guys! Trail looks and feels so peaceful!
Thank you 🥰
What a great hike! The mushrooms, the moss, the berries, the snake, and of course the cute porcupine! Fun video!
Glad you enjoyed it!😊

You're right! Mother Nature is an amazing decorator! Thanks for letting us know about the berries! They definitely looked good enough to eat!😁🥰🥰🥰🥰

A walk to your castle would be very nice to do!🥰🥰

Yes, I would never eat any mushroom I found even if it was supposed to be edible. Just too risky for me!😆🤣 They are very attractive though 😁🥰🥰
T!hat orange berry looks like bittersweet! That stuff is a vine that chokes out trees by wrapping around them and squeezing the life out of them
Ooh! Not good but you are probably right because I think it was a vine!
@@EwetopiaFarms We have it here behind my house, it has choked out very old and very large pines right behind my house and have almost killed all these pines. Very sad...
Yes, we don't have that particular vine but we do remove others frim our trees for the same reason!🙂@scootytamra
Beautiful area! It’s been perfect year for the mushrooms 🍄 here too, not sure why but I’ve seen so many more than in past years.
I'm not sure either but I agree!
Boy that blue jay was upset at something!
They are so noisy this time of year!😄
What a wonderful place ❣love the porcupine , I have never seen one in nature :) PS Keep an eye out for a delivery on Wednesday from Amazon :)
We have run into porcupines a few times. I love them! Oh my goodness, I will watch out for Amazon! Thank you!❤❤❤

Thanks Konalis! Maybe one day we could head out for a hike on your island! Now that would be awesome!😁🥰🥰🥰🥰

I think those are junipers like you said… they are juniper trees. The orange ones are they cape gooseberries?
Oh I remember last year on one of your hikes acorns falling too & you worried about being pelted by them. Loved the velvet mushrooms.
Soo cool about seeing a porcupine.
@@justinanovak8040yes, acorns are deadly!🤣🤣🤣🥰
@@justinanovak8040wasn't he the cutest!?
Thats a hickory tree
Yes, we know now 😊 In a future video we apologize for calling them walnuts and do a little talk on hickory trees! Thanks!!😁
