Get Out of Dodge! Sensible Survival

[basicgorilla]

Thanks for the vid, you have inspired me! I am going for a hike right now lol!

[wildbill23c]

I love to go camping, and hiking. I haven't done much in the way of hunting in the past few years due to being so busy with my job, however now that I'm unemployed the whole hunting idea will be coming back to reality to help fill the freezers. Everyone should get out of the city and head to the mountains and live off the land for a while. The truth is though many people never have been out of the city to camp or hunt so they have no clue about survival. Now's the time to be learning.

[DennyRec]

We go back packing and camping. Being a LEO it helps me relax the mind. Just look around and see the beauty that Heavenly Father has provided us. I was down there 3 years ago, just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[reddanty]

Thank you for all of your videos! I love watching

[GunNut12680]

[wildwill1970]

Great vid there Sootch

[HunterofDemons]

You make excellent vids sootch! Thanks for everything. Ive always been an outdoor person and here in wyoming i love to walk around town and out in the prairie and mountains. We have beautiful waterfalls and mountains here. I grew up in new jersey so i know what the northeast looks like and have hiked all over. Pennsylvania, specifically the northeastern half, is an beautiful place to camp and hike this time of year.

[B4realalready]

Get back to your roots! What a laugh. I was born and raised in a concrete jungle. Nevertheless, I do find my way out of the jungle every weekend. Nothing like the beauty of nature.

[MrLovefile]

your very right my friend,i usually watch nutin and go walkinbg with my dog,he insired me to do things,but its easy to be lazy and watch u tube! peace,love,life

[sasquatchhunter200]

I loved Blue Ridge when I went there. It was awesome going to NC in 15 minutes!

[petrashusaband]

Hi Sootch00! Thank you for all of your videos! I love watching your gun reviews and your other videos! Thanks for the video of the blue ridge park way. I'm orignially from Virginia and fond memories of driving down the blue ridge park way with my parents and siblings and climbing up a mountain to see the blue ridge mountain lake from a birds eye view. Wonderful Country! Keep up the good work. Long live the republic and God bless America!

[sootch00]

@petrashusaband Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I love the Parkway and Pisgah National Forest. We're only 5 minutes from the entrance and we dont get up there enough. God Bless you and yours~

[389Lee]

Good advice.

[GitcheG75]

beautiful parkway...my wife and I drove the whole length of the parkway last year, and a small part of it the year before. And we'll do it again this year, God willing :-) When we roll, we roll...spontaneously mostly! We just get the map out and see what looks good. You are right about spending too much time on the computer, brother.

[BlueRidgeMarine]

Dan; Found you thro Nutnfancy vids. Started watching your vids. Nice to see one of my neighbors doing good work. Keep up the work, I'll look for ya on the trail or @ rex's.

[BlueRidgeMarine]

Don: Please excuse the typo on your name. Guess my ADD was crossed with my fat fingers.

[AbbyBrookeSeveng]

You tan very nicely. Are those your children? They are so cute. I've been hiking there before.

[Jed7mm]

I miss backpacking in the Pisgah forest...not to mention the Pisgah brewery

[scruffymeigs]

Corgies are great dogs!

[bohdimlh]

Amen brother! Get out to the mountains, wilderness, etc., regularly! Shut off the computer, tv, radio. Put away the magazines and newspapers. Get away and clear your mind! Have some fun. Man is that he may have joy!

[FuckObamasMama]

Nice video.

Nice place to regroup and think,should an emergency present itself.

[homeslice352]

The intro and exit song drove me NUTS.

But a good video, you're so lucky to live that close to such beauty.

[DESERTHAWKIN]

there is a pipe stickin out of a rock wall on the blue ridge pkwy in va near skyline, with the coldest freshest tasting water trickling out rite on the road side, me and my dad would always stop and fill up our bottles as did some locals.

[mlong5151]

Love sliding rock buts its cooooold!!. love you vids

[sootch00]

Yeah baby! Super cold~ Great to see you on survivalistboards :)

[bookhound63]

Was that "Sliding Rock"? I've been there. I was born in Asheville.

[sootch00]

The was on the Parkway at the Graveyard fields. We past Sliding Rock on the way. Thanks :)

[BWCAW]

I always find by peace in nature! Nice!

[buzzz1213]

Its all good but after an hour or 2 where is the TV, microwave, Mickey D's, KFC's, waffle house etc.........How in the heck do you expect us civilized folk to survive?

[usernametroubles]

really? you don't seem like the person who would voluntarily seek out a video like this then.

[x250f23x]

You best get to learning buzzz

[Caty25cat]

"Get back to nature and clear your mind. In times like these, we need to be able to think rationally and sensibly."!!!!!

[MrMindfucker]

No devil's courthouse?

No looking glass fall's? What kind music is that anyway?

Sound's like middle eastern hooka parlor music! LoL!

All kinding aside this was a great video...

[sootch00]

Looking glass falls is covered up with tourist. Devil's courthouse is great... maybe next time :) The music was from a friend of mine and the CD was a demo. The song is named "Jew-billie" LOL!

[MrMindfucker]

Hi there. Devil's courthouse is one hell of a climb/hike. I love all the fall's there..

Land of waterfall's!

The music is cool. Have you ever heard of a bluegrass group called Mo and the Grass?

[Otacon237]

Blue Ridge is awesome! Been there twice with my parents when I was younger. It really is beautiful terrain, great hiking too.

[opshadow1]

Oops! Just saw the credit for the music right after I sent the last message. Oh well.

[sootch00]

Steve Dennis is a friend of mine that is a brilliant musician. He is not producing any CD's and gave me some of his music as a gift. I thought it suited this video :)

[opshadow1]

He's excellent! He should look into starting a YouTube site and selling his music. Fantastic Bud!!

[opshadow1]

Awesome Bud! Great points and beautiful scenery. Love the audio too. Did you play the banjo at the beginning and end? Great job! The birds were trying to steal your lines too.

[sootch00]

You're right, the birds were raising hell! LOL!

[StonewallDVGM]

Guernica and I drove from Baltimore to Austin and we went through the Blue Ridge Mountains. Man !

[StonewallDVGM]

In the woods most weekends.

[meadowlassie]

You're a good father.

Your family is very fortunate to have you.

[sootch00]

Thank you :)

[SirArthur007]

Awesome vid, 5 stars. The topographic terrain here in North America is awesome. Venturing helps me learn the surroundings and the locals.

[sootch00]

Thanks! Of course the camera doesn't do these views justice. It's worth the trip.

[SheepDoggOne]

10 star vid! I couldnt agree more, see you on the trails bud, woohoo breaktime! =D

[ChrmdLabradorite]

So very right. Last week I took vacation. For 9 days... no internet or news. Was awesome! LOL Outside a lot, with day trips here and there. Clears the head and heart, and physically great too.

Thanks for sharing!

[patriotwarrior2]

Damn good video and advice. Patriots you need to recharge those batteries!

PATRIOTS UNITE!

[smttysmth02gt]

Something interesting to note is what the Bible says about the end times. It says to "flee into the mountains". Somewhat what all the survival guru's have been saying for a while. Get out of the major cities and get out in the woods.

[sootch00]

You're right on. Check out "One Second After" by William Forstchen. That will change the way you think about survival. It's also a NY Times Best Seller so it's a great read. Thanks amigo!

[PenelopeA57]

I am soooooooo jealous!! I visited Charlotte, NC in 06 and I wanted so badly to see the mountains...but it wasn't possible coz my boyfriend was ill. Well thanks for giving me a glimpse of it's beauty! And I love that Southern drawl y'all have! GBU

[lopinglobo]

There's nothing like getting close to Nature to put things back into perspective...

[sootch00]

I was stressed to the max last week and after this little adventure, I was very relaxed and ready to tackle the world. Thanks :)

[nikki4612]

So true. Just got back from a week in Sedona looking at the red rocks. Heaven. Now I can handle the craziness again.

I love the blue ridge too.

Nikki

[rebelyellshooter]

[actop19]

Love the blu ridge parkway! We used to go to Cherokee NC, every fall when I was a kid. I will have to settle for the Hoosier Natl. forest this coming weekend.  Nothing like camping to recharge your batteries!

[mysacredhonor]

[pancho345123]

great vid.!

[JosiahsBackpack]

Awesome! Great topic!

[buzzclark]

I Absolutely agree. Peace of mind is crucial. Sociaty is FEAR driven and we are all victims. Like you said before "Peace of mind is the Goal - That's the heart of the sensible survival mentality - doing with what you have in the best way you can." May the Peace of Yashua God permeate your mind and heart and may God place a divine heavenly hedge of protection around you and your family. Sincerely, JAMES.
