David Gray's video: TBT - Knobstone Trail Indiana Backpacking - March 2011 - Re-Edit

@#TBT - Knobstone Trail (Indiana) Backpacking - March 2011 - Re-Edit
View and purchase all my photos at: https://davidcgray.smugmug.com/ Check out my website at davidgraymedia.com (Book-length trip reports of most of my 'big' hikes, stories, reviews of my favorite places I've stayed and eaten, and gear reviews. There are many unlisted Youtube videos embedded within the articles). Continuing with my 'throwback time' series of re-edited older videos. This is a fresh look at my first significant Midwest hike, the Knobstone Trail in southern Indiana. I did this hike in March 2011, with my dog, Jaden. The Knobstone Trail starts about 10 miles northwest of Louisville, Kentucky, and heads north-northwest for 46 miles through Clark State Forest and Jackson-Washington State Forest. My original plan was to do the hike in four days but I ended shortening it to three days - ouch! The second day was 19 miles with some of the most difficult terrain in Indiana. This video is a great example of our early 'learning' trips, in which there was every bit as much fun and excitement as actual backpacking knowledge (perhaps more!). I really enjoy watching these early trips because at this point we had never experienced any 'lessons' that teach you that things can actually go wrong on backpacking trips! The learning was coming at us in 'firehose' fashion at that point, and that knowledge paid off in a big way in all of our later trips. This trip was a long time ago. Jaden was five years old (now 17 and nearing the end of his 'hike' in life) and I was twelve years younger and a complete backpacking 'newb.' Little did I know at the time of this hike what incredible backcountry adventures would be in my future.
