Kris Hoogstraat thanks! it was a good one.Cheers, Kris!

Thanks! That is interesting to hear. I think it will work quite well here in the fall and early spring. ATB Jess

Luke Patton thanks Luke!

Pooter Stomper thanks brother! It feels pretty good up there. We have rolling hills in PA, but nothing like this. It is definitely hammock country. Have a good one

it is a huge wilderness area! You would totally dig it brother. Cool mountain air

Wulgar thank you! will do!

thanks Alan. West Virginia is a beautiful state. I have been there a bit during winter, but have gotta check it out during the warmer months. Love the mountains there.

Jason Kaiser thanks! it was pretty nice

David Palmer thank you David! Appreciate it sir.

Clearly Canadian thanks Jake! It was a pretty fun outing. Honestly, wasn’t expecting that when I packed lol. Have a good one bro

@@EnduranceRoom hey btw thats a bad ass rucksack man great for a huge load out, ive got a USMC FILBE ruck and was looking at those awhile back, perfect for winter excursions cheers Jesse!(=

@@EnduranceRoom hey Jesse btw I forgot to tell you I have a pretty nasty stab wound in the webbing of my hand.. I'm trying heal quick hope to do your video tag ASAP brother!!(=

thanks Kyle! Appreciate it

Peter Harbin Nice! Yeah, it is definitely easy to pack a LOT of gear in there. Pouches are slick. We ran it with our food in the pouches on one side, and water on the other.

It was a good ruck! We really enjoyed being up there. Thanks John

Did I hear you say it was a 70 pound load out ?

John Burgin yeah... with all the food, water and whatnot. I was thinking we were going to go camping, maybe hike in a mile or two on some flatland and relax in the woods. lol

@@EnduranceRoom 😂

it is massive! will be good for winter camping. he was pretty good. we had somethings creeping around after we laid down. He was in the tent with us, but went out and posted up outside the tent all night.

Tobacco Road Adventures Thanks brother! It is super cool. All the best, my friend!

TheTruthlady thank you! cheers

@@EnduranceRoom Nick, "the good lion" sent me

SILENT OUTSIDE BOB thank you! 👊

will cravens thank you, Will!

Jason Pettit thanks, it was a pretty cool spot. i know what you mean with the games! A time limit, maybe an 1hr a day, and then a list of things to do in order to get that hour would work.

@@EnduranceRoom your right I'm over all that it only works when I'm home,I'm ready to make a planned trip and then flip the breaker

Military History Gear Review thanks! we saw a few folks on the way out when we got there and a couple on the way in. We went on a weekday too.

That's exactly why I picked that hike LOL

Dude the campsites are packed. My buddy went take his kids our camping last weekend as a mini vacation. We're from Saugerties so he knows all the campsites around here but, they were all packed. He started looking in Sullivan county, then Delaware, then Ulster & finally Green but found nothing. He wanted to go to a camp ground because it's safer for the kids and there's activities for the kids but they were all booked. The state sites were packed. A lot of waterholes being shut down because of litter. They found 40+ BBQ grills in the stream in Palenville. Minnewaska, Colgate lake, North Lake, Devil's tombstone, Overlook, Magic Meadows, upper Esopus, the fire tower, Plattclove etc all trashed.

@@blackbarnz we actually camped in a state game land. A little more primitive, but it was empty and isolated. Might be worth a look

@@MilitaryHistoryGearReview thanks for the tip, I've got a new ten, sleeping bag & gear so I've got real urge to get out there and use it. Ya know how that goes.

Thank you! Cheers

Shawn Clarkson thanks, welcome to the channel

Kaido Ojamaa thanks Kaido! I really like the NVA gear that I have seen so far. Have yet to see the LBE gear setup. I imagine it is quite good.

@@EnduranceRoom I will have to get mine out for when we meet up. We really benefited from Germany Unifying in 1990 getting the East German M87 NVA UTV gear as it was not fully issued out to the majority of NVA units being a then newly designed produced Load Bearing Harness system sitting in NVA storage warehouses. I was stationed in the US Army in Germany at the time (1988-1992) and had contact connections with Several Surplus sources including directly with Thomas Sturm. I got a bunch of both the new and older designed NVA FDA BDU Uniforms, M56/76 Helmets the UTV Pouches Belts like a UTV PM Holster in Berlin from Stefan Militaria. Latter I acquired allot more DDR M87 NVA UTV gear. Used it all effectively in my EDF service when I we were developing testing Load Bearing Equipment Gear back in 1995-97. The DDR NVA M87 UTV system gear is a modified copy of the British Web Carrying gear. Which I found it to be in some ways superior to the USA LBE gear espically with the UTV Hook fastening style system vs the US Alice clip retention system. Check out my review of the UTV Pistol/Utility Belt on Sportsmans Guide web site. Now I use the UTV as my Hunting Wilderness Carry Rigs which I will show you when we get together later on.

Kaido Ojamaa excellent sir, looking forward to it. That does explain the near new condition of the pieces I have seen. Interesting.

@@EnduranceRoom Same here Sir looking forward to our eventual meeting. Yes the UTV LBE was slated to be mass issued to the NVA Troops. German Unification stopped that. I herd that only one or two Companies got it fully issued. We really got a token with receiving all of it Brand new Not issued.

🙏👊

RVNEΖ Beats sweet! thanks for checking it out. cheers

Ok if ya Google "Arkville NY Maze" or "Erpf Maze" you'll find it. The abandoned town of "Lundy" near Kerhonkson is an interesting side quest, step back in time.

blackbarnz awesome. thanks for the info!

AGUA 93 sorry to hear it, that is a bummer.

Brian Miller thanks! I would try a 45lb kettlebell. If you can military press the 40s for a few reps, it should be a good fit. If you can do 8-10 reps, I would grab a 53lb/24kg kettlebell. The Russian Kettlebell Challenge is a really good book with 2 good programs in it that covers all the bases. Its definitely worth doing.

Thnx bud for the advice I will give it a go

tnprime we signed in and food hung proper. woods was pretty clean when we were there, but we pick up stuff all the time. It was a good trip. For what its worth, we know there are bears (thats one of the reasons for the dog). The ADKs through us off last year. We read it was primitive camping and in my mind that meant fire.
