This is a great video and part 2 of Fronkey's Winter Adventure Hike. Anybody found Part 3? Awesome video and I haven't seen it posted here on the forum. Have I missed it as well then found it on U Tube? Just had to post it. :)

I was kind of hoping to post these all at once on here once I finished editing them. :)

You have been holding out on us!!! :lol: I figured so. :lol: Man,,I love your videos and this trip with Tala,,keep them coming!
I was wondering when this would pop up! Fronkey is the man! I was pretty worried when I saw those second hand Facebook posts that it might end up badly...but the wolf pulled thru!
Sitting in a parking lot for my kids soccer practice will watch the vid back at home. Thanks for the link!
Thanks for watching. :)Quote:

I know nothing about being out in snow, so all of what you say is both new and interesting to me. I’m a big fan of warm stuff too. My idea of warm, might be a bit different yours. I don’t like minus one much either! lol
Oh, no, it finished! Thanks for the video, Fronkey, very enjoyable and I learnt a few things too!
Whew. Thanks for allowing me to get my Fronkey fix. Been waiting for your next episode.
Actually had flurries for a while here in GA this morning. Not quite what you were strolling through.
Thanks for sharing your trip.

Can't wait to see them all together Fronkey. The way you intended them to be.
I'm glad those little sections where I explain how to do things weren't too boring as I almost didn't put them in there. :laugh:Quote:

Thanks for watching. I am hoping spring is here soon, but hearing that there were flurries in Ga makes me nervous. :lol:Quote:

A special thanks from all of us who live our adventures vicariously from our desks at work. Really enjoyed your video adventure. Can't wait to get out into the "Piney Woods".
I would go for a nylon cap for 3 season. :)
Fronkey, you are the man. What a great trip. Can't wait to see the rest of the vids.
Fronkey-
Thanks for sharing...great video!
Editing? You don't need no stinking editing, looks great the way it is! Do you ever miss having a knife while out there?
Whooooo Buddy......breaking trail and panting. That is winter backpacking.
It is tough for sure.
Noticed the posting was by someone else rather than you....kinda threw me.
Reckon this crew was eager for more snow adventure.
Shug
Good question. I'm curious if you missed having a knife. The videos of your trip are outstanding. It looks like a great adventure but very difficult slogging through all that snow, not to mention the cold temperature and other conditions. Very impressive effort and accomplishment. As others have said, I'm glad Tala is doing well. Nice work!
Thanks dude!Quote:

I'm hiked hundreds of miles on the SHT and never needed a knife. The saw was a smart move IMO and it really helped a lot with this trip.Quote:

Am subscribed to Fronkey's channel so saw it over at YT before I had/made/took time to check out HF again....
A great watch and it will go onto my trip reports watch list (for re runs with fun and learning purposes)
Thanks for sharing!
Grtz Johan
Looked good, thanks for sharing.

Is there a part 3?
Thank you for the video Fronkey! Guys like you and Shug keep me entertained.
