Oh wow--your video brought on a bad flashback at 5:13! I hope that scalded foot healed well Miranda. A young lady I knew suffered 3rd degree burn on her foot when her boyfriend accidentally knocked over a billy of water that was boiling on the edge of the campfire onto her foot. She was wearing similar shoes to yours. They instantly absorbed the boiling water and held it against her skin, making the burn even worse than it would have been for a spill onto bare skin because it took time for her to remove shoe and sock before we could pour cold water onto the burn.
Thank you for the time stamp!. As a child I saw a sibling get badly burned camping and I was able to skip over that particular trauma trigger and enjoy the rest of the video.
With how those stuff sacks work, that tent looks like a great option for base camping like you did. Gives you more internal organization for being out a few nights and feeling "settled in" a bit.
Try going to Wayne national forest in Ohio. Go to archers fork or wildcat hollow. No bears, but you cannot drink the water, so you will need to cache some gallons at a road crossing. Dispersed camping. set up a tent anywhere you see fit.
Correction: dispersed camping IS allowed: as long as its not within 200 feet of trails and water bodies or Within 1/4 mile of backcountry facilities (shelters, huts). 3. In the alpine zone - where trees are 8 feet or less (unless there is >3 feet of snow)
Great video. You certainly enjoyed yourself as usual. Shame about your foot just goes to show how easy it is to do. I bet the waterfall would have been nice to stand under. Cheers
I've stayed at this site 4 times. Every time there has been a bear. Last year the bear found a weakness in the bear box and ate everyone's food the night before we arrived. Everyone had to jury rig a bear line. The caretaker was fantastic. More then once I heard her chase off the bear during the night.
Going to be that person don't hate me, Pemigewasset is pronounced "Pehm-ih-juh-wah-seht" or Pemi by the locals. It's an Abenaki word and the river of the same name starts there. Galehead Hut is on the AT so even though it's pretty remote it gets a steady flow of through hikers.
Lol searched winter hike and got a summer one…. Living 10 mins north of Mt. Washington, looking for new winter hikes for my son and I. See you on the trails.
