- To commemorate this milestone on my channel I will be doing a Q & A, so this is your chance to ask me anything about my outdoor adventures. Drop your questions in the comment section below and I will do my best to answer all the questions in an upcoming video!
I want to thank all of you who support my channel through watching and commenting on my videos…I really appreciate you all and I am really looking forward to reading the questions and putting the next video together to answer them all!
I enjoy the fkt stuff. Whos the coach? Whats the training plan like?
Ps congratulations on the 40k! That's awesome Jason 👍
Thanks! Got some great FKT dicussion for this video...it's going to be hard to keep it short!
1) On your recent bushwack of the unfinished southern section of the sheltowee to Rugby, how concerned were you that navigating to the end was going to be possible?
Congratulations! Well deserved! My wife and I have been talking about RVing. How would you recommend someone getting started? Start small and build up, etc.?
Thanks Dan, happy to share my knowlege, I was in the same position a decade ago when I bought my first RV. Thanks for the question.
Congratulations buddy! Crazy! 40K! 1. What is your next FKT, or do I already know...? 😅 2. How did you pick your kayak? Specs, pros, cons? 3. Besides a FKT, have you considered a traditional thru-hike during the farming off season?
Thanks man! Can't wait to talk all about it! Great questions Nick!
Greetings from Frenchburg, KY (Menifee County). I found your channel because of greenhouse tomatoes.
Awesome! I'm trying my best to put out some more farm content but its been a struggle finding time to edit this summer. Thanks!
I found you while I was researching a Mad River canoe float. I live in the area. Farming question. How did you get started in farming, and why do you specialize in produce/farmers markets?
I could talk for an hour on this one...thanks for the question!
Congrats on the well earned subs. I found your channel from your kayak camping videos. I'm in Ohio so loved seeing some of the rivers I haven't done yet.
The question I have for you is what/where is your dream kayak camping trip? Follow up... Do you feel 2 days really is the max for any kayak camping trip? Canoes excluded.
great questions, thanks!
I told you it wouldn’t be long😂I found you looking for ohio deer hunting😂. It was your video at lake Vesuvius. And I’m glad I did. Congrats Jason well deserved buddy.
Thansk Joel! in my earlier life I lived, ate and breathed hunting. You should check out my son's channel, Blocketh Outdoors, all about hunting, trapping, fishing, and more recently air rifles. His channel gets 20 times more views than mine.
Just saw your update! I actually got hooked on your farm videos first. But then came your water adventures, hiking, camping, and others.So the bottom line is that your channel covers everything I am interested in! So, thanks for sharing, and as a long-time subscriber, I look forward to seeing you hit the 50,000 mark!
Rick From Virginia
thank you Rick, I appreciate you!
Congratulations, Jason. Knew your channel when it started, looking up Ohio backpacking and wondering if it was too late to start in my early 40s. It wasn't. Met you at the Mohican meetup after your first Sheltowee hike. Here's my question: With so many pre-planned FKTs and other well-mapped races, what states/regions do you like the most for 'off-trail' exploration? Is there a future episode where you hike somewhere and take the paths outside of the marked trails for a night or two? Seems you do this more with the kayak (?) but thought it might be interesting to see you chronicle a wilderness hike versus the point-to-point training treks. Best to you and the Colonel and your family. Thanks again for making the content. Terence
Thanks Terrence! Excellent question! This will be a fun one to discuss!
Congratulations! My husband and enjoy watching your content. It makes it extra special just because you are from around our neck of the woods. Where has the Colonel been? How long have you been friends and how did you meet?
Can I ask two question? Lol
How many drones have you purchased due to your you tube channel. Lol… well maybe I should have worded it, how many drones have you lost?
thanks for the great questions!
Found you from hiking the Florida Trail in my area in Florida. Stayed because your faith. Definitely would like to hear about your scary encounters!
Thank you! I will be touching on my faith in the upcoming video briefly from a prior question about it and I do believe i have an scary encounter story as well!
wow. great video and great choices of questions to come up with. yes, why isn't your wife on the videos? for hiking in southwest ohio do you have issues with bugs, ticks, cobwebs? 6 wks ago I got lyme disease from east fork state park horse trail & while I'm recovered it's left me skiddish about trails. I would also like to know what kind of backpacking, hiking and kayaking gear you use, would rather not use and why. Thanks so much Jason and congrats on the numbers!
excellent questions and I look forward to discussing them in the video!
Congratulations Jason!, what is your favorite river to camp on in Michigan?
Looking forward to answering this one!
Congratulations! Do you plan to do another FKT attempt of the Sheltowee? If so, when, and would you do a northbound attempt?
This just might be my favorite question...I could make an entire video dedicated to answering this!
I understand if you don’t want to go here because it can be a divisive subject, but I would love to know more about your faith. I’ve heard you mention it briefly I believe at the end of your Trace FKT series. I promise at least for me, no matter what you say, I’m still watching your videos. Also, I believe I speak for the masses when I say, we want to know more about the Colonel!
I will certainly be touching on it briefly since your the third person who has mentioned it. And I will update everyone on the Colonel. Thanks so much!
Congratulations on the milestone. Keep up the awesome content.
Will do, thank you so much!
[suggestion for kayak camping] , i want to suggest one on my bucket list . i think two days on the Manistique river in the UP of Michigan finishing out by visiting Kitch Ity Kippy the natural spring in Manistique MI would be a great trip if possible i want to try again maybe next year i was close earlier this year but it got canceled and if you want to leave civilization behind on a river i think this one is notable and the river Hemingway was on when he scored the Two Hearted River
all great rivers on my list! I visited Kitch ity kippy a few years ago, very cool place.
Congratulations Jason on 40K viewers
Thanks CG!
Congratulations Jason hope you come back to Kentucky and Tennessee this fall went it cools down a little bit God bless
I will be back this October Lord willing!
So awesome! Congratulations man!
Thanks Justin!
Your the Man... Tons of info and a real good guy... Congrats
ah shucks, thank you!
Awesome love your kayak camping
Do you ever paddle the auglaize river
It's local for me and my wife so frequent diff spots along the auglaize
Thanks! I appreciate the question and will certainly address it in the video!
Thank you keep doin what your doin and we will keep watching
Wild Bill and KiKi
Who had the idea of changing your forming from dairy to produce?
excellent question and I would love to tallk about this in the video! Thanks!
I found your channel when watching Dan Becker's video of you guys hiking in the Charles C Deam. Didn't know who you were but I watched till the end where you were leading the guys in prayer and I was like... gotta check this dude out. So glad I did. I was trying to figure out how many subs you had when I subscribed. It would have been sometime over the summer of 2019 when I was really starting to watch backpacking content before relaunching our channel in November 2019. Definitely under 10k! Awesome to see you have success. I probably enjoy your FKT/challenge videos the most... probably cause its something I wish I could do.... even though I hate running haha! I still typically enjoy watching whatever you post though. Well, you asked for a question not a novel so.... in light of what brought me to your channel, if you are comfortable sharing it, what is your Testimony? How did you come to Christ? If thats too personal, what Camp Grounds have you stayed at in Indiana if any? Specifically State Parks. We'll be with you on your way to 50k!
Hey Mark, I'm happy to share some details about my testimony and faith but it will have to be a condensed version for the video but I will do my best! I appreciate you guys always watching and commenting on my videos...I'm sure we will meet in person soon enough! Thanks for the questions!
How did you get into backpacking?
Finally! Looking forward to answering this question!
Thanks for all the great videos Jason. Do you use a tracking App to measure river miles? If so what do you suggest? Also there are some extremely straight parts of The Mad River. Is that natural or man made? I don't think I have seen straight aways like in the upper Mad. Thanks.
Great questions! I’m looking forward to addressing them in the video!
@jasonwish- Thank you Jason!
Congratulations on your 40k accomplishment!!! I look forward to you sharing all of your adventures with us and appreciate the time it takes to do so. Thank you!!! -dave
Thanks Dave!
Congratulations, Jason!🎉
Thank you! Can't wait to be kayaking again in Michigan!
How about a fkt of the lynville gorge loop
Possibly...I have three others lined up first that I have to get through...I'm right in the middle of training hard for them but I think I'll be ready come October!
Congrats on your milestone! I’m a newbie and found you by googling Ohio back packing. For some reason and out of nowhere I want to hike and stay in the woods over night. Any recommended overnight trails for a newbie?
I did see people say shop at REI. But some of the gear is expensive. Can’t wait to watch and see the new videos soon.
Congrats again! Maybe I film my own adventures one day lol.
And you are close to me I’m from sidney Ohio lol.
@@dewaynehess3314 I'm in Bellefontaine
great question! I actully answered it and then realized it was on the Q&A video so I deleted it and will answer it in the upcoming video!
Congrats on the 40k!
Thanks!
I found your channel through your kayaking videos. Congratulations on 40k!!! What’s your favorite Michigan River?

O man yes we are coming to town Saturday. Looks like 10 of us! We are thinking about getting in at the Bates rd. 296 area And getting out on 55.

Stoked for you Jason! You deserve 1m subs brother.
Thanks so much Zakk!
talk more about the equipment and gear you have used
I’ll add that question to the list, thanks!
How do you pick out a good squash at the market?
Thanks for the question! Any particular kind of squash?...summer squash or winter squash?
Congrats on the milestone from a Central Ohio native! I believe I've been following you since about 7k subs. I mostly boat, but have been inspired to try kayak camping by you and others. What are some water routes you would recommend in the Central Ohio area for a beginner? What precautions do you take when determining a campsite, and how do you ensure you're not on private property? Looking forward to more kayak camping videos with you and the Colonel!
Also, where can I find all the good sweet corn?!? lol Haven't been able to come across any for a while! 😀
Good stuff!! Fun questions to answer for sure! You can find us at these Farmers Markets on Saturdays: Worthington, Clintonville, Powell, and Dublin. Tuesday at Hilliard, Thursday at New Albany and every day at our produce trailer in Marysville.
@@jasonwish- Awesome, thanks!
Congratulations brother that’s awesome. My question is how do you stay so motivated to do all the things you do such as . Kayaking & hiking while farming? You rock and I’m glad you share your experiences with us
Thanks James, looking forward to discussing this!
Congrats on the 40k subscribers bud! You’ve got a real talent in story telling your adventures. Its been great watching the channel grow with new types of content. And it’s been a blessing to follow along. We’re considering a camper in the future. Would like to learn more about the model you’ve got and any gear you use.
Thanks AJ! Great question!
Congrats brother 🤙 … are you thinking of going back to the ADK’s and tackling the rest of those Summits ? Are you Thinking of becoming a 46er ? 😎🏔️
Thanks! The Northville Placid Trail is first on my list for sometime in 2024 but I'll definitely discuss the ADK's further in the video!
Say Michigan is better then Ohio admit it
Hahahaha, yes Michigan rivers and lakes are better that Ohio...if I had to move it would be a toss up between Michigan and Western N. Carolina mtns.
@@jasonwish- go blue
Sorry, when it comes to that, its GO BUCKS!! Both my wife and I's alma mater
@@jasonwish- 2 years in a row how you feel?🫣
@@deeallen6322 Ha, how many years in row was it before that?? It's about time we finally have a rivalry again
