Have to say you all have the very best hiking channel on the Tube. I’ve been to many of the same places mushrooms 🍄 are my bag . Great friends the best of times. 👍👍
I was shocked to see the tombstone of Archie Smith in the park! That was my uncle who only lived a few months. Alford and Elva were my grandparents. I had no idea he was buried there. My family must have once had land in what is this area of the park. I still have family that live in nearby Oneida and I own a house there! There are lots of bears in the area- glad you took precautions with separate cooking and sleeping spots.
@@AdventureArchives Hi guys! Love your videos! I’ve not been back since then, but my next visit I plan to hike out and look for the grave. Thanks for all the great adventures you share with us!
Not to choose favourites or anything 😬 but Andrew is the star of the show! I do so appreciate his knowledge. It would be very interesting to know what you all do as a career. . .
Theres a lot of reasons why I love this channel, but I think one of the biggest ones is that every video reminds me of human curiousity and community. I always feel like every video has messages that I need to hear at that very moment, and during this video I found myself remembering growing up in a forest and wanting to explore every part of it. Wonderful video as always 💐
I am 70yrs old...I lived some of that sort of LITTON FARM life...there's nothing quite like it...the stove, the spring house , the garden, the old house, the barn...oh, for a simpler time...smile. You guys have no real idea how sweet it was....explore more.Ding how!
As a new subscriber that's going back and bing watching all your past episodes I'm amazed that your gear has basically not changed and Andrew is still in a basic tarp! Your all about getting outdoors and prove that gear and equipment isn't as important as people make it out to be! And yet your video quality is the best of any outdoor channel I've ever seen and you must spend a lot on camera equipment!
Your videos always bring me peace and serenity. I use the ones I've already watched to fall asleep. This would be an awesome place to revisit in the spring for the rhododendron bloom, although very beautiful in fall. Great video and music as usual. Loved it

I did an overnight there about 4 years ago with some friends. It was early November. It was pouring rain and when we started out it was 48 degrees. Sometime in the night the rain stopped, but a cold front passed through and we woke up to 16 degrees. Most memorable miserable trip ever, but I still love the place-it is gorgeous down there.
When do you have time to live your regular life hiking camping editing doing the music all your little short film clips I absolutely love this channel and I am so glad that I found it. You have done a few of the trips that I have especially up in the Adirondacks that is where I live you guys are very relaxing and enjoyable to watch and I learned a lot from your channel to take with me on the trails , thank you thank you
Gosh! I don't know how in the world I have missed this channel. I just discovered it this morning. So incredible. You guys do the most incredible job not to mention what wonderful personalities and characters that you all three have. Big South Fork is one of my favorite places to camp and hike. At 71 years old I still go tent camping there a lot. Thank you so much for your hard work that you do I can't wait to order a t-shirt. Maybe I will be fortunate enough to run into you guys somewhere on the trail it would be an honor just say hello and hopefully things will change so that I can shake your hands or do an elbow bump. Love you work. Please stay safe and healthy out there.
I sure appreciate you gentlemen. I Live in East Tennessee, Knoxville, and have really enjoyed thru my adult life feeding lucky to live near two of most special places on this planet of ours. Look forward to more education, insight and inspiration.
I just found this channel this morning. I've been binge watching all day. Everything about this channel is awesome. The videos are so well put together too. You've inspired me in more than one way. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures.
I came across this video and decided to check it out, after it started I thought...ugh, it's an hour and a half. But it is a very easy to watch video. I search constantly for new places to hike and this has made my list! Thanks
An amazing episode guys! The way you shot the fire segments was beautiful!🔥 The music during the cave explore was fantastic! I felt shades of Pat Metheny. The pine needle carpet is AA's red carpet. Adventure in the quilted forest! 🤣 The shoutouts once again shone. Thomas is the perfect Wilson. A big thank you to Sunjan for being the catalyst that started it all! 🙏 Well done guys! 👍
This is the second video that I have watched of yours. Thank you for taking me along on your hikes. I love the woods and mountains. I love the way you identify plants trees and everything else. Love the crunchy leaves! I can almost smell that smoke myself. Thank you!
Andrew whispering: 'everyone is still sleeping so I'll collect some firewood and get a nice fire for them to wake up to. Tip-toes to nearby branch...CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! CHOP!.....CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! hahaha

Great trip and interaction, y'all. A 1000 years ago - I'm 82 now - my buddies at UCLA and long after would let me go where they went at my own speed but call after me to be sure I hadn't fallen off a cliff or been eaten by horned frogs - cerebral palsy's forever! : ). Effectively that made me know I'd missed nothing and lived a full life. FWIW that's the best gift anyone can get or give. Bluntly, I'm tied for luckiest dude who ever lived.
I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this video. Some parts, I was in awe, some parts I laughed so hard it's a wonder I didn't pop some internal stitches. (Just had surgery) Loved it! You guys are going to keep me company while I heal up. ☺
Thank you so much for making these videos! They have been my watch-of-choice during the pandemic, and it turns out our neighbours watch you guys too! I really appreciate all the time and energy you put in to your walking, filming and editing - it is noticed. You're all wonderful (waves from the UK!)
Watching your videos reminds me of when I was younger. I still go out and explore. But I let life get me too busy and lost touch with all my friends. Take it from someone that knows. Never loose contact with your friends. Don't let life get you to busy.
"If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or is a Gurkha." The Khukuri is a weapon carried by the Gurkhas. A fellow Nepali viewer here. Great going guys.
Just started watching your site. I immediately subscribed. It is the best travel one I've seen. You explain everything along the way to make us feel like we are right there with you. I grew up hiking in the woods of Pennsylvania and miss it so much. Haven't done it in over 30 years and now at 71 I'm physically unable to with blood clots in my lungs.. so watching your site makes me feel like I'm right there hiking with you. I also love the stories you tell. I almost lost it when he said fuzzy toilet paper. Keep up the great videos. Now I'm off to watch another of your videos. Stay safe all of you. Thumbs up.
Moving to Tennessee next month and watching this just made me even more excited!! Can't wait!!!! I'm definitely the one who sleeps in, snug as a bug in my hammock...need more people that like to get up and start the fire. Cheers to them and the Coors haha. Great video as always ya'll: ))
I just recently finished watching all of the previous full episodes, didn't know how badly I needed another one until I hit play and heard the music 🥺. It's also really wonderful having just watched some of the initial episodes seeing how you guys have grown with footage, narrative, music, and editing! Keep up the great work 😊!
Thank you so much for the kind comment! So glad you enjoyed it, and it definitely is interesting to go back to the older ones and see how much they've evolved, haha. Cheers!
Loved the trip, got my AA fix for the day! Thought it was funny how everyone was eatin their own meals, so used to watching y'all share your food. We'll get back to that one of these days. To your next adventure!
You all have seriously shined a much needed light on my life today, thank you for taking us all along on your adventures with you, for those of us who cant get out there right now :) keep it up great work! Thank youuu
@@AdventureArchives just look up the closest grotto to your area. If yall are still based here in Indiana, Central Indiana Grotto has a fb page to connect with them.

Great video. Fall colors are great and you did a good job of capturing them. Rock caves cool. Did a great job making me feel as though I was there. Keep it up.
Man Iv got other channel's that I watch but no one comes close to you guys. The videography is incredible. Thanks for the great content fellas, I look forward to your next video!
You fellas are doing a good thing by sharing your outdoor experiences, thank you for that. You all are a pleasure to spend time with.I hope to join you all on your next outdoor adventure. I am pretty much a recluse, and I wish for the ability to get out and enjoy nature. Your videos are great inspiration for now.
I like it when Andrew talks about and identifies plants trees and mushrooms.
I like the vids brian, and yes i do like it too when andrew speaks on zoology
Trees and mushrooms eh?
Thanks
Thanks!
That's the longest I've seen your knife unsheaved, Andrew. To me that speaks more about the man than the knife. I love these videos :-)
Such a great episode! My favorite line is Brian’s “Someone needs to stay alive.”
Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it! :D
This is the most professional- looking hiking channel I’ve come across!
This is a very golden episode
True! very warm, gold colors :)
Have to say you all have the very best hiking channel on the Tube. I’ve been to many of the same places mushrooms 🍄 are my bag . Great friends the best of times. 👍👍
I love your intelligent commentary ..... I live in Guatemala --- love your channel !!

You guys need to stay on youtube for a very long time. LOVE your work. And the music is original I see, so no copyright BS to bog you down.
Beautiful! I live in Western NC, so I'll have to give South Fork a visit. I always love the time and care put into these videos.
Definitely give it a visit, and another National Recreational Area near you Mount Rogers in Virginia.
Love this group.
Your videos always bring me peace and serenity. I use the ones I've already watched to fall asleep. This would be an awesome place to revisit in the spring for the rhododendron bloom, although very beautiful in fall. Great video and music as usual. Loved it
Like the extensive knowledge of Andrew about flora and fauna of the forest. That adds tremendously to the enjoyment of your videos, guys. Keep it up!
man these videos are just the perfect escape from a global pandemic!!
Yesss, one hour and 26 minutes I can avoid studying - thanks guys!
Looks like its an extended lunch break for me.
OMG Guys I needed this episode :) I just got back from hospital and I need a little sunshine in my life right now. Thank you!!:)

My favorite TH-cam channel! When I hike it is therapeutic and so is your channel, thank you AdventureArchives!!

Thank you so much! Glad you like the new intro :D

I'm glad you all had another enjoyable experience in my home state of Tennessee. Your videos are a big part of why I started backpacking.
I just found this channel this morning. I've been binge watching all day. Everything about this channel is awesome. The videos are so well put together too. You've inspired me in more than one way. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures.
I love this! It's cool to see you guys in places that I have been in. Thanks for bringing back memories by letting us tag along!
Another great video, thanks guys!
wonderful to see a new adventure, thank you all

I guess I know what I'm watching after work tonight!
Thank you guys for giving us such quality content!
That was Breathtaking of a hike! Thank You for sharing your Adventure with us!!
Another epic Adventure Archive episode guys! Keep up the National Geographic quality work for this channel.
Dang! I live on the Kentucky side between the BSF and the Cumberland Falls. Excited for this episode, I’m sure I’ll see some areas I know!
:D Hope you like it!
An amazing episode guys! The way you shot the fire segments was beautiful!🔥 The music during the cave explore was fantastic! I felt shades of Pat Metheny. The pine needle carpet is AA's red carpet.

Fabulous! This is the only channel I've found that discusses the flora and fauna during the hike. Very awesome
I love watching you guys.🤗💕✌️

This is really well shot. Looks waay better than most of the bushcraft videos I see on TH-cam.

I loved your video! It was awe-inspiring and all the information about the plants and animals was great! You guys rock!
Nice to see you back on the trails. Breath of fresh air!
I really love the adventure and how we are very much alike in many ways no matter who we are or were we are from. Great massage!
Big South fork Wilderness area is a magical place!! I am so glad you all did this video of the place!!!
My stomping grounds 💫. Much love..y’all’s content is great!

Good to see you guys back on trail! Great adventure!
Your videos provide a nice respite for days when it is too cold or wet to hit the trails ourselves. Thanks for sharing.
Wow!!! I felt like there was so much more to
See and explore! So much more rock formations, caves etc! Really great fun lots to see!!!
"If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or is a Gurkha." The Khukuri is a weapon carried by the Gurkhas. A fellow Nepali viewer here. Great going guys.
Sure, now, a bloody good knife ; but
you can't go throw it worth a damn.
Just stunning. I feel like I just went away for an hour.
Another great AA episode! 👍
Thanks, Bob! Appreciate your support :)
This is my favorite one so far. Love the scenery and the music. And the shout outs at the end.
I realy like your hike. Thanks for all the plant knowledge
Great Episode! Keep up the great Filming and Awesome adventures! 🤟🏽

Thank you so much! Glad you like it, and thanks for watching :) It's always cool to come across a "corridor" in the forest like that
