    Smile Video:The Search for Grizzly Adams and sons - We're off to sing on Mt Trudee

    Hey guys!

    I just got back from a 4 day 3 night adventure on the Superior Hiking Trail in Northern Minnesota.

    I picked up Mr. Green and we shot on up to the trail to meet up with Grizzly Adams and his two boys. After a big hike we met them at Bear Lake at one of the best camp sites I've ever been to.

    We got hit with some rain that night which gave us some great sleep weather and then headed on over to Mt. Trudee where Grizz got inspired to write a song for us to perform for a missed friend.

    Thanks for watching!

    Lovin' the enthusiasm!

    Thanks for showing what I missed out on. Rain.

    Looks I did miss some great views, though.

    Glad I didn't have to sing. Everyone is glad I didn't have to sing!

    Dale Gribble: I'm thinking, "new hammock." For me, laying and swaying in a hammock is like a steady morphine drip without the risk of renal failure.

    The views were amazing. The rain wasn't the bad part, it was all the mud it gave us. But, it made it fun.

    We could of always used a back up dancer.

    Thanks for watching! I never found out who that bearded fella was. He kind of just followed us along. I'll tell you what though, he did have one sweet hammock.

    I almost brought her too. But, I knew it we would get a lot of rain and it was really muddy too. I missed that girl though. Thanks for watching dude!

    Good stuff man ! I'm glad we got to share some trail together. Next time I'll make sure to take it easy the night before the hike so I can match your first day energy. BTW I don't know about the rest of you guys but I think the bugs got together and decided to wright War and Peace in braille on my legs !!!
