Dolly Sods Wilderness - Bushcraft Backpacking, Hiking, and Camping in Monongahela National Forest Nugs: I started following you guys 2 years ago and this is my first time digging deep into your. Archives. I know you all probably live relatively close to WV/MNF/NRG, but I think it's pretty interesting how eastern and southern West Virginia always seem to keep people coming back. I live in Columbia, MD, only 10 minutes away from a great state park (patapsco valley, an hour away from the AT and -2 hours away from Shenandoah, where me and my family went at least once a year when I was growing up. But whenever I have an extended weekend and an option between those 3 areas and the 3-5 hour drive to either MNF or NRG, I always choose the latter 2. There's so many beautiful areas to explore, its incredibly easy to find solitude and there's just this unshakeable feeling of being home even though you may have never been in that specific area on that specific trail before. Its strange, because I hope more people find out about the hidden gem that is West Virginia, but at the same time I kind of want to keep it all to myself.

Having heard you guys reference this video here and there in the more recent videos, I figured I needed to go back and watch this finally. Super interesting to see how your video and music production has evolved over the past few years! I found myself LOLing quite a few times in this video. I think Robby needs to bring back the Cornholio cameos! LOL And I definitely wasn't expecting to be mooned by Andrew Lin. hahaha I can really appreciate the work that went into this video and the result was very entertaining (per usual. Now I'm going to have to add this place to my list of future destinations. Thanks guys!

I just stumbled onto your videos yesterday. The first video I saw (Wayne National Forest) caught my eye as it was from my home, Ohio. Although the content. being outdoors and bits of 'bushcrafting' were what led me to find your video, the production values (especially the audio) and thoughtful narration are certainly a draw for anyone who appreciate fine workmanship. In the 2 videos I've watched I've not gained knowledge into your profession or plans for the future, but I'd say you've got a good future doing this kind of work. Keep up the good work and I'll be delving further into your videos!

Came across your Yosemite video and was just amazed. So I decided to watch all your videos from the beginning.
And every video is just a masterpiece!
This remarkable pleasant, kind and simple atmosphere which brings you warm feelings. I just can't describe this overwhelming experience.
And the music. I was astonished to discover that you even write music for these adventures. And it fits so great!
You guys are awesome! You're like an oasis amidst the desert. I wish more people were like you.
Thank you and I hope you won't stop making new videos.

It's cool to see the similarities between the original episodes and the new ones being released now. The focus on respecting nature and appreciation of what you have is amazing. The production value and your backpacking skills have improved so much over the years. Even feathering your sticks has improved! Thanks for continuing your content. It has inspired my boyfriend and I to go on our own backpacking adventures, which has helped us both so much coming out of being stuck inside so much.

Another great video! I had no idea about Dolly Sods. I live in New Jersey so I-m super excited to learn about this wilderness!
I started watching your videos because I-m headed to Yellowstone this year.
Im going on a solo trip. I won-t be able to hike because I-ll be alone but I-m hoping to make some hiking friends out there before I go.
Your friendships inspire me. Thank you so much for these videos!

i decided to come revisit season 1 on my day off. I cant believe how much better your videos are nowadays. I remember when i first stumbled on these videos over 2 years ago and thinking they were as good as it gets. Now they look so rough in comparison. You guys sure loved that slider back then. haha. Season 1 is literally what introduced me to DSLR filming.

Love your video's! but if you guys don't have full time jobs (which often comes up in your videos lol) how do you guys get your hands on all that gear! My kids love your show too and have started recording our hikes with my phone no where near as good in video quality but priceless in time had with them!

I really enjoyed your videos and this is my first time ever commenting after watching countless YT videos. You guys crack me up with your ability to identify flora and fauna, interesting alternative camp foods and your respect for the land and nature. Hope you have more adventures to come!

Wearing rubber footwear and long pants would have greatly reduced the difficulty of the hike and saved you guys from some seemingly unnecessary injuries. But that's a minor detail. Great attitude and very inspirational guys! I want to do this now (but with proper use of modern equipment.
