Backpacking the Buffalo River Trail: Part Two - Exploring Nature and History

In the last video I hiked the first two days of my four day hike on the Buffalo River Trail From Boxley to Pruitt. In this video I hike the final two days.

On my second night of camp the area got poured on all night. A decent amount of water actually made its way into the tent, thankfully with an inflatable sleeping pad I was able to stay dry up above the ground, likely would have been different with one of the foam pads on a previous trip. In spite of the rain making a lot of my gear wet I couldn't complain about it because the rain made for some beautiful hiking the next couple days with lots of waterfalls and little streams crossing the trail.

Along with the natural beauty on the trail, there was some cool historical spots along the way as well. On day three I saw two old cemeteries and passed thru the Parker-Hickman Farmstead in Erbie before camping with just a little over six miles to go on the trail.

The final day of my hike was fairly easy, rather scenic, and perfect hiking weather. It made for great conditions to finish the trail on, especially after getting rained on at camp every night. This was my third time hiking the Buffalo River Trail and it's likely not my last time either. It really is a fun 3-4 day hike.
