Well Maestro, glad to have you back on the trail and thank you for taking us with you.

Came back after the weekend and watched the first three parts in a row. What a way to start a monday...

Like all/most of us, glad to see you knee healing, love the new 'beanie too.

Now don't ruin your new camera too soon with them knife throwing flicks we haven't seen enough of a new season of ShugWoods.

Happy to see that Karl went along with you

Looks like a great hike ! I hope to get out to the piney woods someday !

[TZBrown]

Been gone all weekend and when I get back there are 3 great trip videos to watch.

Every one great. I really enjoy seeing the different hiking areas.
Looks like a challenging route with all of the rocks. Hope the knee comes out OK.

Thanks for taking us along

I love the serenity of the woods alone.
I don't get spooked much because I figure the more dangerous part of the trip is over (driving to the trailhead).
I do fear ticks and poison ivy though. I always wear long pants because of that.

Thanks for another great video!

Woods, trails, maps, compass, bears, and wolves. What more could anyone ask for.
Forgot the pack rod did you? Didn't see any fishing going on. Pike, trout, Musky - a little garlic, butter, salt, pepper, AL foil in the coals -- Ummh Goooooood!

Waiting for # 4. Thankee Shug.

Another great installment, Shug. I think we all get those spooked feelings once in a while when out solo.
And who needs a gun when you can throw a knife like that.

Scared I'll run out of candy! I love knife tossing.

I have never been to that end of the BWCA but man does it look like a fun place to romp around.

Ely is wonderful and part of the fun.

Glad your knee didn't get worse, and the site looks so peaceful. As always, looking forward to your next video / adventure wherever it may be! Thanks for posting and hope all remains "Secure in Sector 7"

So peaceful....until the beavers started slapping....

you appear to be a much happier camper in this vid. We all appreciate the honest commentary and self-reflection.

When the first shots of that saw popped up I thought it was a spring loaded trap and was trying to figure it out. Bear trap? Cruel, why? Ah, a saw, that's better.

It's funny out on the Keck, isn't it, there's all kinds of water sort of in the general vicinity, but not much to be found on the trail.

Yep Grizz....a couple of days of solitude and my love for humanity returned. Did get a wee reflective....a clown must purge or life is a dirge.
True on the water...see it but can't always get to it.

Well Shugrow ... good to see the knee is cooperating with ye now. Neat place you be hiking, even if I couldn't pronounce it myself! Ha!

Lots of odd names up here. Thankee Hawk-ustus.

[Shug]

Nice videos (as is your hallmark). I can subscribe to the bliss of being out alone. If I get spooked, I just try to reach inside and find that "I'm-just-another-animal-out-here"-feeling of connection to the woods, and that usually helps.

Thanks for that. I choose not to "hike with worry".....

A couple of days with Shug and my morning coffee now--I could get spoiled with this. Enjoying the trip. +1 being out there alone is a spiritual experience. My last overnighter was punctuated by an owl most of the night and some woodpeckers in the morning. People worry about the wrong things--bears and wolves are going to be the issue--bugs and vermin are more likely to mess up a trip it seems. Thanks for taking us along. Glad you're back out in the piney woods after the summer show season.

The woods are my Spiritual Retreat. Feel that I am looked after and I feel connected to the vastness.....

Another great video.

--louis

I appreciate that.

Hey Shug, will we ever see an unedited video of yours?

No Sir....to much rambling and off-topic palaver.
I wish more folks edited their videos to lose chaff.

Great to see you are getting a chance to take a break from "clowning around" and get out in the piney woods. Enjoying your video, thanks for sharing. Plan to get a weekend out in the woods myself this week...a much needed break.

Have a wonderful time out there. Where ya' heading? SHT?

Oh yeah! Coffee and a Shug video in the morning....nice way to start a day!
Thanks for taking us along, and hopefully see ya' soon.

Thanks HB.

Hey Shug, thanks for taking us along on another one of your trips.

Had to share. Plus...the camera really is a hiking partner.

Another great set of shugieo's (Shug videos). These made my day. One needs to get away from the stresses of work and home. I plan to be out in the mountains this Friday and enjoying the piney woods meself. Thanks again.

Make a plan and go....or one will never go. Tell everyone and talk it up with veal and verve))))) That is what I do.

Great advise about creepy noises It's funny how your imagination can get the best of you sometimes out there. I agree with you thouhg, embrace it. Thanks for posting!

Yep....a red squirrel sounds like a moose at night!

Creepy noises - yeah, it's funny how something as small as a mouse or bird walking on leaves sounds huge.

The lil' ones are loud and bears are quiet. Truth

I prefer a "Love and Adore" button.....

It was a much needed jaunt. I breathe easier now. Thanks for watching the "threesome"
I was very careful on the knife toss and played left!!!!!

Looks like a great hike ! I hope to get out to the piney woods someday !

Make a plan and go..........they pineys await you.

You would love it TZ. Someday we'll get Hickery and you and go......

You understand well........I thankee.

I am not one to fish. Too impatient. Love going with a buddy that does though. I'll cook!!!!
