Seriously Shug, thanks for making these videos. I am sure it is a lot of work and I along with countless others very much appreciate it!

I must make videos....I must. Appreciate it.

Having done trail maintenance I know the effort that goes into it and like you am always very appreciative when I see it. Always good to go the trail less traveled and made me envious. Thanks for taking us along.

Now I will make an effort to keep that trail alive in the future...mighty impressed. I thankee.

We all had our own stools but I like to sit on "Shug"!

"Walk? All the time? Are you out of your mind?" Now I know this trail is doable and it's been put on the short list. As always thanks for the excellent entertainment, Cheers, Shawn to Sean.

It must be walked. Not much of a paddler me but now I want to paddle that area.

Great video Shug. Thanks, as always, for taking us along!

Another terrific video Shug. I enjoyed it greatly. I like your longer format too. It gave me a chance to really get into the flow of the trip

Good grief Shug,

Alex and Strung Out need to learn how to control their excitement. All of their whooping and hollering may scare the wildlife off.

I am just plain jealous of y’alls trip. You have posted some neat places to go, but I am going to label that trail as the most serene. I would love to roam around the Sioux Hustler area for a few weeks. Give me a few miles to hike, a few books to read, and some food to eat and my wife would have to hire a search team to drag me out to return me to work.

The effort you put in to shooting and editing these videos is truly appreciated by this community.

Personally, you are like a tour guide to my Minnesota backyard. Now you've just added another trail to my growing to-do list.

Thanks again

loved the nature lowgliding sections.
i was far to interested in all the chairs that you guys took with you... so could i request more kit reports from your fellow hikers...
really enjoyed the food infos and ofc the scenary.

and kudos to all trail clearers.!

What a beautiful hike. The closeup shots of the moss on all the rocks was very cool to look at.
Carrons and tree cuts wow I love the remoteness of such a trail. Did you guys get lost even for a littlebit?

**Floridahanger** · 10-09-2014, 13:08

Tis a perfect ending to a day. Watched just before going to bed leaving sweet dreams of a beautiful trail.

Shug, thank you very much for such a great video. And a long one at that. I just love that beaver cam. You must have caught one on the trail and strapped a Gopro to it.

That is one beautiful trail and it had it all. Hills, outcrops, plains, ponds. And I'm glad you captured the trail itself with the rocks, grass, mosses, lichen, etc. Great job as always.

Thanks for taking the time to put it all together.

Man that looks like a fine trip. BEAUTIFUL TRAIL pal ... really fine. That Alex is hard core hiking in Drover boots!! Dang I'd be all crippled up trying that! Loved the Moose bone juggling! Thanks for sharing pal ... just what a feller needs to see if he can't get out himself!
