Hi Chris My name is Stephen, I’m from the uk, may I just say I’ve been following you for a few weeks now, I’m unable to venture out into the great outdoors like yourself, as I have to look after my sick wife full time , but I can honestly say that when I watch you’re videos, it’s like I’m out there with you, please keep up the videos as it helps me escape in mind , and look forward to you’re next venture, keep it up Chris you’re so inspiring To me and lots of other people in the same position keep it up and god speed, kind regards Stephen.
Chris. Am not an expert but I truly believe you reached the peak in mastering self filming. This is truly amazing . The sequencing, mix between still shots and POV, with addition of great pictures. Mixing in people and solo sequences. Playing with focus and always with optimum contrast..... Chris this is so good! You make us travel in a Delux passenger seat! .... almost forgot: thank you and please keep on exploring. 😊
Nice job on the editing of the video. You wear me out watching all the back and forth walking you do to get the camera. Your hard work shows thru in your videos. Respect.
Chris you’ve proven once again I need to get out and explore the country. Amazing water features, plenty of old structures, a photographers dream... Stay safe out there.
Enjoy the outdoors, hiking, camping, etc. My husband and I did what you are enjoying for over 20 years, then we both lost our health and life stopped. Thank you for sharing the video
Missed watching the last two episodes due to vacation. BUT-this is my first campground with wifi so I'm sitting in my truck camper catching up with Chris while we're BOTH Overlanding. How cool is that! Chris, not sure if you read comments but THANK YOU for taking the time to put out the QUALITY and QUANTITY of travelog you do. You INSPIRE and FUEL my travels!
I love you story tell ability. Keeping it simple and personable. My wife and I are planning a two month road trip next summer and you videos bring a lot of excitement to that adventure
Thanks Chris You put a lot of extra miles on to get those great shots on the trail and the drives. That Toyota you parked next too looked like it was very well kept up

This week's episode was Epic, Chris! Those waterfalls looked great and you seemed to be having a great time. I'm looking forward to your winch install.
Another Great Video! Enjoying the journey for however long it lasts. We got to get you some mustard on the burgers though! Your travel is very inspiring.
Hi Chris, thanks for high-quality, informative, and inspiring videos!! One more reason to look forward to the end of the week. Just making sure you're aware of the Netflix download feature... While at the library, you could download enough content to watch for the week without cellular data coverage (as long as you have sufficient on-device storage, of course). Thanks and take care!
Another awesome video of your epic adventures. The places you go to are absolutely amazing... some people have their Kardashian’s to follow, but thank god we have our Chris. Looking forward too where you take us next week, and as always safe travels Chris. 😎
Chris FWIW: BECAUSE OF YOU...I did buy a Helio-love it, and GAIA-learning it (Used your Discount link), and Garmin IN-REACH-great tool for hiking and I used the the text function for the first time today to check in with the family while I have no cel signal. You're an excellent salesman!
Hey man, great videos. I’ve been watching them since the beginning. You’re close to my stomping grounds now. You should swing through Pisgah NF and check out Linville Falls/gorge on Old NC105 (lots of camping spots) or the other side of the gorge and check out Table Rock and take that hike. There’s great scenery and camping out there.
i wish i had your GPS files for around the Tennessee area, you should offer them for sale, i sure would pay money for them. Good videos !! keep up the good work man!👌
At first I thought you had an awfiul big pack for just day hikes, then I realized "oh wait I'm watching this, which means he has some bulky camera equipment". Makes sense. Fantastic views there, so nice.
I spent an amazing night up at the Unaka Mountain overlook in June of 2018 and came back from there with some funny stories. One that includes a game officer waking me and the dog up in our tent at 11PM to ask me if I was selling drugs.
You should be the next spoke person for any kind of bun shop (Subway, Wendy's, etc..). Sandwiches and hamburgers everyday and twice on Sunday. I suppose you wouldn't eat anything that doesn't come with a bun. LOL
Hi Chris, New to the channel. I wanted to say first of all great video. Also I live about 30 min away from Erwin. I spend a bit of time in the Cherokee national forest as well as the Smokies. Your video shows the beauty of those areas well. When ever I take pictures they seem to miss the beautiful view I see in person. Again great job and if your ever back in the area please let me know. My family and I would love to join in on a trail run with you. There always seems to be new trails to find.
this is my first video that i watch from you and at first i got say you edit different from the other overland ppl. and I honestly like the way you do it man👍 you talk short and important info i like how you show how you do all ur stuff and show around ur camping. keep doing it man great stuff.
a ton of forest service roads in Pisgah. keep in mind there are 2 parts to Pisgah, there is a part near Lake James and Linville George (a MUST SEE) and there is another part of Pisgah near Brevard. Both are awesome areas. After that you need to go to Wilson Creek, epic fishing and hiking and fun! cheers
Andrews Bald looks like a much better hike than cling mans dome. The dome was crazy busy last time I was there. Was an awesome view though. Your not far from WV. Any plans for WV?
That burger looked so good! I suggest you checking out Almazan Kitchen. Have some napkins ready for the drool fest with all their great meals they create. Safe travels friend.
I had to return my Oboz. The footing on the boots were way to slick. I almost fell several times just on slightly damp surfaces. I ended up getting a pair of Salomon boots that work great. Maybe that was just my experience. Other's have stated that they enjoy their Obozs.
Wished I knew in advance that you was coming through Erwin. I would have met up with you. That too breezy spot is called Beauty spot. Great videos, keep up the good work.
As many times as you get turned back by small to moderate trees, I might suggest something like a battery powered ego electric chainsaw. You won't have the fuel concerns with it that you would with a normal saw, and it's more than enough to get the job done on an intermittent basis like that. I've used the ego 14 for a while now for yard work up to 12" or so and have been pleasantly surprised. The slow charger is plenty fast enough, and probably better matched for an alternator anyway.
Hey Chris. Just wanted to let you know your channel is one of my favourite 4x4 channels. I love the chilled out vibe of them and the great photography. You're in prime Trans America Trail country so plenty of back country routes. Check out Kevin'sGPS TAT site for free routes. Keep up the good work. Kev B. (UK)
Love your vids. As a former Special ops guy I always see things differently than average people and I am concerned about your personal safety from predators both animal and human. An Oklahoma man and the woman he was with were just attacked on the Appalachian trail in Virginia and the man was killed. They caught the bad guy. Anyway, please carry a defensive blade and even better a handgun or perhaps a close quarters shotgun in your vehicle and or on your person. And maybe get an attack beast like my Jack Russell terrier, Junior. :)

Watching your videos on Friday evening has become one of our favorite things to do, great job Chris.
@@freeravenadventures6925 me too, except tea.
Me too. Except hungover
I love it too, but it's usually first thing Saturday morning with a cup of coffee in hand!
Same here. Between The Grand Tour and Chris' channel, I look forward to Saturday sessions on TH-cam.
With coffee on Sunday morning for myself.
I'm addicted to your videos. I love the rawness of them. No dramatic music or drone stuff. It's very real life stuff.
So very raw...medium rare even.
Stephen Gomez agreed . Peaceful . I climb into bed and put by earbuds in ..... living vicariously thu these vids . Epic Story
Brings a smile to my face everytime is see that reclaimed BBQ lid you found 😎 Another entertaining video 😎
Nice job on the editing of the video. You wear me out watching all the back and forth walking you do to get the camera. Your hard work shows thru in your videos. Respect.

I LOVE the Smoky Mtns!!!!!!! Thank you for such great footage and memories!!
Love the journey man!! Stay strong and keep wheeling! Look forward to this all week long!! 👍🏻👍🏻
I love you story tell ability. Keeping it simple and personable. My wife and I are planning a two month road trip next summer and you videos bring a lot of excitement to that adventure
Thanks Chris
You put a lot of extra miles on to get those great shots on the trail and the drives. That Toyota you parked next too looked like it was very well kept up
I came to the replies just to see if anyone else noticed. It looked very clean from the glimpse we got.
Got to say I wasn’t sure when I started watching but I think there is something great about the simple way he narrates himself throughout the video

Your videos are inspiring....can't wait to take some voyages this summer...thanks for what you do!
Endless venture of this beautiful country of ours....thanks Chris and cooking lessons too!
Always a treat on Saturdays watching a new episode. Beautiful footage Chris! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work! 👌🏼
Great video as usual. All the things I love - jeeping, hiking and burgers. Thanks
Your videos always make me relaxing and peaceful.
I was just in that area today! Beautiful. Great video and Jeep! Keep it up.
Your videographer skills are awesome!
I really like your videos! I first got here because of the Jeep, stayed for your style of creating videos.
Yay Friday night and another great video!
Always enjoy your adventures looking forward of seeing the next exploration of America's wonders
Every time I see that spinach bag, It reminds me of your friend who told you to place it with your sandwich.
My Pastor, Lifestyle Overland and now you make up the list of people I thumbs up before I watch.
Always enjoy your videos!!
Thanks for the trip, nice places and the burgers where looking good. Have a great day.

Awesome hike! Nice waterfall campsite...
Amazing video, as always. Keep up the great work Chris, I wish you all the best!
You put so much work into your hiking videos. Really enjoying your adventures. Stay Safe.
You make great videos. Very enjoyable! Makes one want to get out and explore.
Love the set up on Jeep that my friend is awesome for sure
Found your channel about a week ago and am binge watching your videos from the beginning. Love the adventures and your brutally honest style!
Thank you as always for sharing!!!

Wow, that hike looks amazing. Really glad I’m a Patreon so I can get the GPS data and do that hike with our family some time!
Love our time together, great work, thank you.
Like always Amazing Vlog and epic shots
Another awesome video of your epic adventures. The places you go to are absolutely amazing... some people have their Kardashian’s to follow, but thank god we have our Chris. Looking forward too where you take us next week, and as always safe travels Chris. 😎
Enjoyed seeing an area so close to me. I'll have to visit some of those hikes you did, they looked great. Safe travels.
Great stuff, really enjoy watching your adventures.

One of your best vids yet Chris.
was really hoping you would go in to Pisgah, beautiful there and there is an epic water fall that is worth the visit ! keep on brother! cheers!
A winch. Excellent news. A great safety thing to have, a real multi use item.
Having just finished this episode, Chris has inspired me to take a trip...
To get a box of cheeze it’s.
I’m really doing it right now. In my Jeep.
Good looking Jeep! I guess being a Broncos fan makes it appealing!

Excellent Video!!! may lead some of our members who like to camp and off road to some of these places! Keep up the great work!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Another awesome production,
Thanks Chris!
Amazing job as always. Thank you very much my friend. Loved.

-Joe😎👍🏻
It was great to meet up with you in Damascus VA. Keep rolling and see you soon on the roads. 😃✌️🏾😎👌🏾😀👍🏾
Beautiful scenic views
They just keep getting better and better. I love that I know where you got that WEBER lid.
I agree - everytime I see that I laugh knowing where it came from. It's a great story.
i wish i had your GPS files for around the Tennessee area, you should offer them for sale, i sure would pay money for them. Good videos !! keep up the good work man!👌
km4fsi it’s on his patron
That was epic! Just found your channel and I’m hooked.
At first I thought you had an awfiul big pack for just day hikes, then I realized "oh wait I'm watching this, which means he has some bulky camera equipment". Makes sense. Fantastic views there, so nice.
I hiked that trail up LeConte and stayed overnight numerous times. Truly a wonderful place!
Another Great Video!
Great Video! when you go north, make sure you explore Linville Gorge Wilderness and Mt Mitchell.....you'll love it.
I'm a newbie. Really enjoy your videos. Happy I found you.
Another great video. Be safe brother
Heyyy! Wild Man Dave in his FJ40 in there! What a surprise!
Another great watch. thanks. :)
I like your overland setup and the fact you have useable tires instead of gigantic tall tires that leave no room for articulation
I spent an amazing night up at the Unaka Mountain overlook in June of 2018 and came back from there with some funny stories. One that includes a game officer waking me and the dog up in our tent at 11PM to ask me if I was selling drugs.
Great video and editing, thanks
Boy you had a busy week. Awesome hikes
Hola. me disfruto muchos sus videos. Sencillos pero con contenido.
You should be the next spoke person for any kind of bun shop (Subway, Wendy's, etc..). Sandwiches and hamburgers everyday and twice on Sunday. I suppose you wouldn't eat anything that doesn't come with a bun. LOL

You should check out Bantam Jeep Festival in Slipperyrock, Pa June 7th, 8th and 9th.

mini-waterfall crossing @ 23:32 was awesome.
Thank You .
May the 4th be with you...I love it... don't forget about revenge of the 6th!!!... lol...
How you can have that burger without any potato chips is beyond me. 😉
Walked through there on our Appalachian Trail hike, beautiful area.
weekend not complete without watching orange jeep
Andrews Bald looks like a much better hike than cling mans dome. The dome was crazy busy last time I was there. Was an awesome view though. Your not far from WV. Any plans for WV?
You got so more Cheez-its! Enjoyed the video.
That burger looked so good! I suggest you checking out Almazan Kitchen. Have some napkins ready for the drool fest with all their great meals they create. Safe travels friend.
Nice hike , you end up hiking twice the distance by placing n retrieving cameras . Great video
Another awesome video!
Precious video ..just show us more the entrance od the oof roads .. i just subscribe to your channel keepp doing this you have a great actitud
burger looked GOOD!
Nothing better than a big, greasy burger after a hard hike.
I had to return my Oboz. The footing on the boots were way to slick. I almost fell several times just on slightly damp surfaces. I ended up getting a pair of Salomon boots that work great. Maybe that was just my experience. Other's have stated that they enjoy their Obozs.
