8:50 Topics

- How’s everyone feeling about monthly Campfire Chronicles?

- How are your new year’s resolutions going?

- Thoughts on the Switch 2

29:41 Quick Questions

- My questions as a new viewer would be, what is the history of your channel? What prompted you to get started? How are you related to each other? Having watched one of your earliest episodes, what's the story behind Thomas joining the crew?

- Have you consider having everyone weigh their pack before the trip?

- How do you guys archive your project files, do you have a closet full of hard drives?

- Is there any chance Nicole (or others) will join the adventures again in the future? Are there any plans for more road trip episodes?

- As someone who is new to backpacking figuring out the planning aspect can be overwhelming. I was wondering in Olympic National Park did you have to reserve camp sites there, and was there any additional permitting?

40:33 Main Questions

- My question is what your hike planning procedure looks like? Do you have a list of locations you want to hike in and how do you find them, how much do you research the route before you start, and do you plan everything together or assign roles?

- How do you think your younger selves would feel if they knew you would have this long running show that has gotten millions of views?

- If you guys could have one thing that would make making Adventure Archives easier, what would it be?

After a two year hiatus, we're back! The plan is to release once a month. In this episode we talk about everything we've been up to for the last two years and a little bit about our goals for the new year.

We briefly talk about our experience getting covid. We debrief our bear encounter during our most recent episode in Glacier National Park. We also talk a bit about our 2023 plans and resolutions.

We talk a bit about our fall plans and talk about how to recapture some of the magic of youth.
