In this episode, we decided to take a trip to Mohican Memorial State Forest (Mohican State Park) in Ohio to backpack in the winter and the snow and freezing temperatures. The temperatures were below freezing, and it got as low as 1 degree fahrenheit, or possibly even -6 fahrenheit according to one person we talked to. We camped overnight in the snow. We hiked past Mohican Youth Academy towards Pleasant Hill Dam where we did some sledding. Before that we saw the Mohican covered bridge. We then saw Big Lyons Falls and Little Lyons Falls. The falls were frozen into big structures of ice. Unfortunately we didn't get to see the fire tower at Mohican. We used a number of trails including Pine Run Bridle Trail, Grouse Bridle Trail, Pleasant Hill Trail, and Lyons Falls Trail. We also saw the Clearfork Gorge National Natural Landmark Plaque.

I hope you see this! But last year this time it was rough for me. I was basically bed-ridden with anxiety and panic attacks. I was playing Adventure Archives on loop and it truly helped me. The positivity, the beauty of nature and camaraderie, and the sense of progression helped me through those struggles. From the bottom of my heart, thank you SO much. Your art helped me through my darkest days.
Probably been said below but:
Snow gaiters will keep your legs dry.
Chemical handwarmers are worth their weight in gold. if it's very cold you can put one under your gas cannister for cooking, it (usually for me) keeps the gas flowing.
Hot water in a nalgene bottle wrapped in a sock at the bottom of your sleeping bag will bring the bag up to temp and help keep your feet warm.
Changing into clean clothes will keep you warm. no matter how little you sweat their is always perspiration dampening your clothes.
Put your boots in your bag so they don't freeze. (I usually turn the waterproof bag that I carry my clothes in inside out for the boots)
Thanks for another awesome adventure!
Priceless tips!👍🏼
The backpackers at 19:56 were me (front), my older sister and older brother (back). We were hiking to site 3, which is further down the trail. I remember being very worried we wouldn't get a site because we saw you guys at site 2 even though no one signed up for it. We feared there would be more people at site 3 who did the same thing and the hike down there would be all for naught. Fortunately we had the site to ourselves and it was a beautiful night. Temperatures dropped big time, but we were well prepared. The same skiers that came through your site also came through ours and we chatted for a bit. They were very nice, also mentioned it was -4 by their house which we were surprised about. We left in the morning before you guys, we said hello as we passed, I'm sure you remember! We also decided to walk on the frozen stream, those footsteps were ours! It was a lot easier than walking through the snow (we wished we had snow shoes for the hike down!). Going up that hill in the snow is a tremendous workout! We also visited the dam in the morning which was beautiful. I'd say the weather was perfect.
We live close to Cleveland and we've been backpacking in Mohican for years year-round. We go there constantly, it never gets old. Winter camping has always been my favorite out there because the silence and scenery is unmatched, and no bugs! I'm happy to see you guys enjoyed a nice sunny morning, those seem to be very common when camping in Mohican!
So, what you are really saying here is there three guys are jerks who used a site without properly reserving one.
Tsk tsk, AA (except Robby, because who can get mad at those eyes)
@@xBINARYGODx I dunno I'd assume they just didn't know it was a pay site which is easy to do at times
So cool!
@@WillWildsOutdoorAdventuresIgnorance isn't an excuse to break laws. At least, not to authorities.
I don't want to be a downer, but I've been having a very tough time recently. Been feeling very depressed. I love the serenity of this content along with how sweet and insightful you all are. Thanks for sharing your adventures and making videos that finally help me find some calm and the ability to sleep.. I appreciate it ☺
Thanks so much for your comment, we're so glad the videos have helped you with your tough time and we hope you're feeling better!
As a photographer who spends so much time on my computer editing sessions, I'm always SO STOKED when you guys upload because there is nothing better to edit to than your adventures. Theyre so chill yet I get so much excitement out of your videos - i dont know. Really really enjoy your friendship, your excitement for the small things and the random trivia. Just really love your videos! So thanks for making my job easier and giving me all the good vibes! Cheers from a German gal who envies your american nature!
same here, editing while these guys are hiking in the background is just perfect to set the right mood :)
Thanks so much!
The low key Hank Hill references were my favorite part
My favorite part of the winter videos is that I get to enjoy the beautiful scenery while sitting in my warm house eating cookies and popcorn. No need to suffer through the cold myself.
I'm third in line at 19:55! That was a cold night!
my favorite part of these videos is that they’re so supportive of each other’s cooking and snacks
EVERY episode should have Andrew singing karaoke! Perhaps lyrics to your theme song?? And the old video clips were a great touch.
Something I found to be very helpful on a really frigid winter camping experience was to boil water to refill your Nalgene and take that into your sleeping bag with you. I remember that making impossible sleep possible.
I love when you guys give a description of the journeys and sceneries,it’s so poetic
Best channel ever!!! You rock guys, I enjoy so much watching your videos... thank you!
The credits. Always the best credits
I want to go winter camping right now more than I ever had in my life.

It’s crazy how an 85 minute videos goes by so fast! It’s always such a pleasure to watch your videos, I could easily watch something twice as long!
It’s amazing when you have spent a below zero degree night in the woods how warm 30 degrees feels. That snow becomes a mess though.
so true!
Mohican is such an underrated park in Ohio!
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
Missed you guys. Gotta say it: Brian has really blossomed in 2020/21
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
If you guys never went to these places in the dead of winter I would not have the privilege of seeing this side of nature. Thank you for braving 1 degree temperatures to make this happen. Much respect because that had to be tough.
I always hate having to wait so long for a new episode, but man is it worth it every time!
I Agree!!! Bump up the frequency! Job? Who needs a job? ;)
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
That Yakuza karaoke is hilarious. Arigatou 🙏🙏
Happy to see you all together again... Group laughter, sharing meals around a fire.... Your the best AA❤️👍
I actually said "Awe omg" out loud when I saw the older video clips. Also, Andrew singing should be an addition to every video! Another awesome video :) Looking forward to more adventures
I love the videos with a passion but recently am living for the extras at the end 😂 thank you!!!
This one is definitely a favorite of mine. I am a new college professor and have to spend a lot of time making my lectures from scratch, so love throwing these videos on in the background to pass the time. Relaxing yet invigorating to take in all the awesome scenery. And seeing how cold you guys were really made me appreciate my office lol.
now THIS is the winter episode I've been waiting for!!! Most underrated channel on youtube. The fact that you guys have less than 3 million subscribers is a CRIME. I found this channel 3 years ago and I've been watching ever since.
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
What you saw was a 'dry dam'. It has no lake behind it, except when there is flooding downstream (in Coshocton). Then, it fills with water behind it, forming a temporary lake. It's designed as a lake during flooding, but used as recreational park during dry weather. It is quite an awesome thing to see, in person. I drove across the dam, before.
Awesome episode as always.... but I have to say, sticking around until the end to watch "Baka Mitai / I've Been A Fool" karaoke video is the best thing so far from the crew... BRAVO!!!
The longer format works really well. And you're still able to tell a very good story with less music and more natural sounds.

Greetings, glad you're back, sitting in favorite chair beside the fire, glad you're safe & healthy, carry on thankyou
The Rush Hour blooper was amazing 😂😂
ANDREW SLAPPING ON THAT LAST TRACK!!!!!
When Andrew is wearing this many clothes, you gotta believe that it's really cold out there.
Another awesome episode guys!!
What a great adventure. Amazing the meals you put together in the cold. You are so blessed to have this group of guys that each add their own talents and creativity to your trips.
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
Next time bring a hand saw for those small dead trees that's still standing. Makes finding wood in the snow easier.
Always captivating. The commaradie (?) and friendship is uplifting. Bravo Andrew on the serenade
You guys and your consistency are some of the best things on TH-cam!
And...no snow shoes....insane!!
Love you guys . Learning lot of things from your channel. I am inviting you guys in New Jersey. Please let me know. Thanks
Would love to see more winter excursions like this! Love your videos. Saw someone comment on how great it is to watch you guys eat together. I definitely agree. Thank you all for sharing!
Ya'll really could have found some snowshoes handy possibly. They might have helped you conserve some energy hiking through all that snow, every painstaking footstep, paying attention to every single step. My back feels for your back. But seriously, this park is absolutely amazing. Incredible winter beauty for sure ✌✌🤞
I stayed at the same site 2 months ago, that stone table is so awesome!
Besides the wildlife, scenery, music, and narration, my favorite part of your videos is the laughter 🙂
I love your 'They Live' reference in the credits. Great movie and great way to bring your patrons in on your production!
Cold weather camping suggestion: When building a fire set a few larger rocks in it to generate heat then just before retiring for the night place a rock in your sleeping bag to keep your body heat prolonged.
I hope nobody actually follows that suggestion, and ruins their sleeping bag. Just boil a pot of water, and pour it into your water bottle right away. Put the bottle inside a sock or a mitten, then put it inside your sleeping bag. It radiates warmth during the night, and you have water ready for the morning.
I had same method of preparation in mind something to wrap it in, radiating heat, and back to surrounding with little to no impact on environment or hiker. Less is more when it comes to hiking but yours works as well.
6 minutes in and I'm LOVING it!! I knew i would though. You guys are awesome!! PLEASE keep up the good work.....please!!!
Mohican is only 40 minutes from me, so hike it at least weekly, including the snowy days. Kuhl (sold at REI) has water repellent hiking pants. I normally don’t make suggestions to other backpackers, but wet pant legs in that kind of cold weather can be kinda uncomfortable at best and downright dangerous at worst. Love your vids, especially the really unusual foods you prepare while at camp. Lots of great ideas!
Snowshoeing makes it so much easier :)
I used to help keep trails clear at a conservation area for my one placement.
I was super happy with the snowshoes.
I remember watching those early hikes at Mohican and Zaleski! Great to see the "Reunion Tour"!! Well done.
here for Adventure Archieves algorithms -keep up the content guys!!
I was just there, during the last week of March. I spent the day hiking at Mohican Memorial State Forest and Mohican State Park.
The covered bridge is an essential part of Mohican State Park, just like the fire tower is an essential part of Mohican Memorial Forest.
Really enjoyed this episode, as always. Loved the old footage from the first visit. Shout outs made me laugh out loud.
Good to see you all.I hope to see more of you. God Bless Love you all
You guys are awesome. Your videos have gotten me so excited to start backpacking again this summer once it warms up in Michigan!
th-cam.com/video/UntbbecDhVU/w-d-xo.html
23:13 is one of the most warm scene ever. Thank you, AA team, for this video. Best regard from Indonesia.
absolutely love the vidoes, also Love the tom nook beanie! I've been watching for about a year or so now. Thank you, for allowing me to escape from the office with your content. I love your editing, and the work you put in is phenomenal. As a Kentuckian, I hope to meet you guys in the gorge one day!
Cheers!
Want the perfect fire starter? Clothes dryer filter lint. Collect it for about a week and you will have a zip lock bag full, it will catch on fire no matter how cold.
Awesome thank you!
So glad to see a new episode. Missed the adventures these past few months. Even if you guys almost had to freeze you buns off.. (but thanks to the seat cushions, I bet they helped).. lol.. Waiting for more videos and hope you have better weather real soon.
Great trip. I did a winter camp a couple of years ago and it got down to 6f and I was fine. This year the low temp was projected to be 6f but it turned out to be 0f. Sleeping was OK but being outdoors was a real challenge. Went through a lot of fire wood. Note at below 10f my Bic lighter did not work. Thank goodness for fire steel.
Great episode. Strangely enough, this made me actually miss winter.
i love the cooking!
such luxury food on the second day even!
im suprised it wasn't completely frozen.
great job guys :)
I’d love to see a collaboration between you guys and Catherine Gregory! My favorite backpacking vloggers! 💕 I think you guys would love her, and visa-versa!
Oh boy. I wish one day make this kind of hiking trip with a good group of friends. Peace
Just had my first near Zero night hiking and everything here is on point! haha Frozen EVERYTHING! lol Hard on the camera battery too even sleeping with them. Keep filming!
I haven't overnight snow hiked in over 20 years. We occasionally get a dusting on the trails, but it's rare. Very nice!
I recommend a Silky Pocketboy folding saw. Gaiters will help keep your feet and pants dry. Crampons/microspikes make snow/ice hiking much easier and safer.
You eat so well it's really inspiring me to step up my backpacking food. But also I don't think I'll be camping in the snow any time soon.
👋KC from SC , cant Thank you guys enough for this up load, im a Huge fan and been anxiously waiting for this !!! from one hiker to the other "pack light" "step furm"," walk the distance" keep inspiring us💙
Top notch production & video as always. Deer hair is actually hollow.
Glad to see y’all back
Guys, unsolicited advice. You brought plenty of food!great. But rember, in the cold you should eat earlier. Going to bed rite after eating can make you colder. Your body takes blood from extremities, for digestion. Wait a couple hours , and your feet and other parts will warm easier. Great video. God bless
Covered bridges are also a New England thing.
I enjoy visiting them because it gives me nostalgic Sleepy Hollow Halloween vibes.
Beerlejuice vibes for me.

Always appreciate the time and effort you guys put into making quality adventures for us to watch. Another enjoyable view, although I do believe it grew colder in our living room as we watched. Thanks all...and, Thomas, we missed you!
really love watching these hike videos!! the length doesn’t even matter
This was a really nice video as always. I have to say I also enjoy seeing how happy you guys are when you go to eat your after hike meals. You find many interesting local restaurants for these dinners.
Great episode! Thanks for doing what you do.
This was great!!!.... Thank you
Love your guys' channel! Really excited for the spring/summertime and what you have in store for the channel, hopefully we'll all be able to get out more soon. :)
You guys need to consider snow shoes any time you are hiking in the winter and the snow depth is more than a few inches. Consider those who want to cross country ski and the trail is full of post holes from hikers not using snow shoes.
Thank you guys this literally made my day, week and month. I had/have some really crappy times and since Corona not much good happened instead a wave of bad stuff came a long like a constant rollercoaster. But your videos, your adventures always bring some light into my days and lighten up my mood. Thank you for being there for us. Thank you for doing what you are doing. Stay safe, happy and healthy! Cheers from Vienna~
Love this ❤ you guys are nuts tho ⛺⛺in them temps but what a fab vid Andrew is wasted in camp an needs to sign a record deal for his singing 🎶🎶🎶🎤 haha
Great job! I love the old footage at the end!
Great video guys, you really nailed what winter camping is all about with this one. A very enjoyable romp through the winter woods!
Wonderful video as always, watching makes me excited to hike more in the coming spring and to camp with absent friends in the future. Hope everyone is well!!
That Tipi like dweling you
Sat in is like the one's Sasquatch makes!!! 🤗
So exciting to see your new adventures!
it was real pleasure to watch. thanks guys. already waiting for more :) cheers
haha awesome episode and best ending credits yet!
Hi guys! I love you hiking videos. But, I am partial to Mohican as I grew up in Mansfield. This video brings back a lot of great memories. You should hike in the fall colors of Mohican and the majestic view of the lookout section of the park. My disability kept me from hiking and camping so I will live vicariously through your.archived adventures.
Thank you guys this is so peaceful ❤️
it's all about that coal base. ;) way to go guys! you all seem to get along so well. wish i was out there w/yah!
Nice video, I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank guys, keep it up 👍👍👍 !
After watching this video I had a dream that Bryan and Andrew bought donuts and we sat down to eat them together. LOLOL. Weird.
Aaaww I really love the music, love the nature and i just like you guys :) So this was so very pleasant to watch! Especially the ending scenes were quite a treat! Have a great day and greetings from Berlin
Really love the new intro! 🍄 🪓 📷 🗺
I know, I know. Not the first episode it’s used in. 🙂
I've hiked and camped since the 70's. Amazing how the gear has changed (and improved). However, I still have the same Northface goose down coat. I guess it pays to buy quality. It's fun to see you guys setting up camp and cooking. I love the grilled zucchini you made over the flames. My hat off to you. I have never winter camped and don't think I could brave it.
I'd like to do this with skis on my feet--like how Norwegians are born. Robins in the trees--so pretty.
One thing for warm feet in the winter--or anytime, really. Get stones around the fire and wrap in towels or whatever and stick them down in the bottom of the sleeping bag. toasty!!
@@kw2764 you can also boil water in your water bottle, stick that in a sock and put it by your feet. A rock might be too hot and damage the sleeping bag, and towels can be heavy to carry.
@@ForzaMonkey true if you are backpacking. I used towels with the rocks while car camping when I was a kid. Fun times
Really nice hiking-adventure!
love mohican! spent a week there on field trip
