- Join me on a hot, mosquito infested hike through the thick maritime forest and endless waterways of Hunting Island! This is one of the most beautiful places in all of the south and easily one of the most biologically diverse areas in all of the Carolinas! I can't wait to go back! Thanks for watching and thanks for your support!

👍😊
Thanks Sergey 👍
I might have to check this place out.
It’s an awesome place. I only got to spend 2 days here so I need to go back and check out the rest 🥲
@@DerrickHikes be nice to see.
How is the camping there?
@@derrickduncanson9253 camping was great. I stayed at the bigger campground and slept in my van a couple nights. Walking distance to the beach and has shower house. There’s a more primitive camping area too I believe that’s more isolated. Definitely need bug spray and citronella for the camp site. I wasn’t kidding in the video about the bugs. They tore me up worse than any of my trips to Florida, Georgia, Louisiana combined. All in all stills great place. Be sure to check out the visitors office, there’s a real nice old lady that works there and she knows everything about the island.
@@DerrickHikes I live about 2 hours north up hwy17. Skeeters our state bird. LOL
Will check it out. After I fix my "legal" stuff. Haha
Take care chief
@@derrickduncanson9253Yes you probably know all about the mosquitoes then lol. Take care too and thanks for watching!
Hi Derrick. I'm just checking in, seeing how you are and if you are ok. Missing your videos Derrick.
Chris I took a long hiatus but I have a couple new ones in the works and now that the weather isn’t treacherous anymore I’ll be back in the swing again. Thanks so much for checking in my friend 👍
You definitely looked like you are from the south hiking in your vest, Derrick.😂 No way I'd get close to that Gator, those dinosaurs freak me out. If you had caught anything, the walk back would have cooked them. Your Forest Gump accent was better than your English one. That sounded more Australian. I was on my roof waving at you, but you never waved back. I hope you avoided the dengue virus. As for the tics, do you carry the tic remover? I hope your balls recovered 😂. Why 700 miles? Just fancied a different hike, or were you down that way anyway? You promised us a swim too. Too swampy or water too cold? I wouldn't have. 15 views? About the same as me, but I'd rather have a few people who enjoyed the video rather than loads of 2 second views with 'like 420, love you long time' sort of comment. I don't know what temperature you have but here the forecast is 65f. We are still waiting for summer. So much for global warming. Another great video Derrick. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.
Chris thanks for watching! A lot of things I planned to do in this video didn’t necessarily go as planned. I had a week off work and decided to take a trip to the coast for some hiking and fishing. However, I wasn’t as nearly prepared as I should have been so this turned out to be a learning experience for me. I have another trip planned to Florida towards the end of summer that I’m going to make a longer hiking video from. I’ll be far more prepared for that one after enduring this last trip. It’s almost 100f currently in the southeast US and it’s pretty brutal for hiking. I’m looking forward to the fall so all of these bugs die off again 😂
@@DerrickHikes again I didn't get notification of your comment so I've unsubscribed then resubscribed to hopefully sort the glitch out. Looking forward to the next one. I really do enjoy your humour.
100f I'd melt. 70f is hot to me.
@@chrisbentleywalkingandramblingThanks again for watching and I’m glad you enjoy the videos! Working on another one currently to have out soon.
