ViDEO: PART 2 GRAND LOOP with the Hickery Brothers...Linville Gorge

[Redshirt]

Thanks for more fun!
No wonder that stump is full of stuff.
That dangling seed pod kinda looked like a uvula.

or a Hickery nut.

[SoundWitness]

Each vid outdoes the the previous one!! Enjoying the sights that the Gorge beholds. As it has been said before....."You two just ain't right"!!

[Bubba]

[Les Rust]

[FLRider]

Have seen those pods all my life and still wonder what they are…..anyone know?
For now uvula will suffice.

what a scary way to end the video...lol

True Horror)))))

Thanks for sharing, always enjoy your videos.

We have a ton of fun doing them. Good memories to look back on.

Lordy that was a gud'n ... kept thinking what a person would think if they came down the trail behind ya about the time you two popped up out of that stump singing! Love the "stump scene" at the end! Hickery them thar acting lessons are paying off! Ha! Looking for part 3 Shugrow!

We backtracked just to do that. Cleared all the spiders first!

I was not aware that was a Hickery stump!

The Hickery stump is good for the rump and cannot be trumped for a dump.

Man another great report from the gorge

I did miss sharing fruit cake with you, hope we can do that in January

Hickery dump in the stump, priceless

We spoke of you as we scarfed fruitcake. That Claxtons is very good stuff.

As always another great video! I'm just trying to figure out where you started without getting my map out, lazy I guess.. Did you start on the 105 hwy side at wolf pit?

Yessir…wolfpit trailhead off of Fish Hatchery Rd. on south end of Gorge.

Another guddin!! I shuttered when I seen the Babel camp, that is where I broke my coccyx in the spring Lookin forward to part tres!!!

Ouch)))) That takes quite a while to heal up. Still feeling it?

[Shug]

Another fun filled goofin time, thanks for taking the time to put it together for us, enjoyed as always.

It takes a lot of work and pain to goof like that)))))

I can honestly say I've never wanted a brother so badly.

Great video, really getting me in the mood for this weekend's hike... It'll be 'breakfast from the hammock' before I know it.

Thanks for being you, Shug!

Have a nice morning' nosh from the hammock.

Great video as usual and as always looken forward to more sir!

Truly a terrific time. Nice to romp my home soil.

thanks for sharing and giving us a laugh

Our pleasure!

Excellent! Part 3, part 3, part 3.......

Fixin'to start on that today…….

Another good one! I'm sitting here watching you guys in T shirts and the weatherman forecasting snow. Something wrong with that picture!!

We got a dollop of snow here in Minnesota. Thanks feller.

Mr. Hyde caught me crawling out of that stump once. Should be in the guide !

I still want to go knocking on his door!

Love me some Hickery Brothers!

Coming soon….the Hickery Brothers meet Wander'nFool……..

Been waiting for this! Must have just missed you guys by a day or so. There were a couple places in your video, I remember us being. Maybe I'll catch you next year! You made me spittle my coffee a little at the end , with Hickery in the stump!

Did you go up to Shortoff from the river? We saw someone on Monday.

It's a beautiful place, I can see why you guys keep going back. Looking forward to part 3.

It has a draw on the Soul for sure.

[Shug]

or a Hickery nut.

Make that nuts…..

Each vid outdoes the the previous one!! Enjoying the sights that the Gorge beholds. As it has been said before....."You two just ain't right"!!

The Gorge was in full Gorge Glory….stunning. We ramped up day by day.

Thanks again Shug. Have heard no mention of your knee yet so it must be OK?

My knee feels really healed. I do have a bone spur in my heel from doing so many shows this summer before my knee totally healed. It hurt at times but going uphill was pain-free.

A good start to my day. You boys are having too much fun. thanks for spreading it around. Whoooo Buddy!

Fun is our Calling Card…...

It's been said before...it'll be said again...you two ain't right. But, tha'ss alright; you're the right kinda wrong.

Looks like you had some beautiful weather on that trip. Looking forward to part three!

The weather was A-1 for hiking.
We are not right and abhor normality.

[doogie]

Just beautiful. I really need to get down to the gorge someday. How many people did you run across while hiking - wondering how wilderness it is. Are there permits required?

We ran into two different groups during the week. One was a group of Outward Bound College kids. The other was the Southern Mafia from Florida. They all respected and commented on the roughness of the Gorge.
No permits needed after Oct. 31. You do need them for weekends the rest of the year unless you camp outside the wilderness area.
