Set up tarp camp on Nolichucky River instead of Doe River because of the distance and amount of gear to carry.
So i decided to camp south of Erwin off the Appalachian Trail next to the CSX tracks.
Later in the video show maintenance issues and deterioration of the railroad bridge crossings the Nolichucky River.
My friend Gib stunk up on me this morning while I was still asleep and made animal noises and tried to make a bear sound then banged on my tarp with a branch anð freaked me out! I thought some crazy hillbilly was messing with me wanting me to leave but Gib always has a gag or funny act up his sleeve for you…lol!
Anyway, this is a quite long video and you may want to watch it half one night and the other half at a later time but it’s full of interesting facts and information.
My shifts will be on sale all colors and sizes.
i hope you enjoy the video! i accidentally had the camera set in full instead of 9:16. Sorry about the mistake!

Mark, Than you so much for filming the Nolichucky River. The last time I saw that River was back in the 1980's when I lived up Tennessee near Green Mountain chain. we used to do a bunch of Camping on the side of that Mountain during the snowy winter months and early fall. Used to fish some on the Nolichucky, Sure do miss those days. I did a lot preaching in that part of Tennessee when I was young, and just started out Preaching, Had not been preaching that long, about if I remember, lol, 1 to 2 yrs. Wow, now I am almost 72 yrs old, and been preaching for about 44 years, but most of all, I love Trains and Train History, thanks again, Mark, My Friend, Also was talking to Jaw Tooth last week about time for you to put out another train video, Just one more comment: We will do a Train Video around or near Smithfield/Selma, North Carolina, Diamond where CSX & NS cross, love to see you in our area, thanks again, Mark have a Blessed Week.
i fish with a spool of line…no pole needed
Ain't nothing. Like. Some cool mountain diarrah
Hello Siri trying this a Dan I love your YouTube channel I'm watching every time you're amazing what you do
Enjoyed the video. Glad to see you out and enjoying yourself.
Not gonna lie, I'd be scared sleeping out there by myself. But it sure was beautiful and peaceful. I love hearing the water trickling. My most favorite thing to do is camping. Of course, I'm more of the campground kinda gal in my trailer. I like to hear people sitting around the campfire having fun. Especially if someone plays the guitar or harmonica. Gotta roast some hot dogs and make smores or pudgy pies, too. Looks like you had a great adventure, Shoestring. ❤
Hey Shoestring, that one tree at 1:22:42 is an "Umbrella magnolia, Elkwood" (Magnolia tripetala). They have this app called (PictureThis) and you can take any picture of a tree/plant and it will tell you what it is. Awesome video. 👍💯
The railways in the USA are a global disgrace.
1164 train derailments in 2022, there were 274 level crossing fatalities, and 812 level crossing injuries in 2022, the CSX high visibility safety vest that this man has is green and illegal to use in the UK.
At our personal track safety (PTS) courses we are told that on our rail infrastructures green means go, red means stop, hence all visibility safety wear must now be in orange.
And that bridge will collapse in to that river.
Sorry Shoestring but $85 for shipping to Canada for 2 T-shirts [$35] is a no go. I just can't pay $170.00 Canadian for two shirts no matter how much I'd like one. But hey if I order Chinese junk it's free shipping from the other side of the world! Happy trails!
Eye will share with U something that original seeds of marijuana grown in Mexico over 1000 years ago is known as a DH-9 receptor DE PROGRAMMER
It breaks ur subconscious read active memory driven program apps
It's actually a de robotic substance b cuz it's Trinary not binary AI checkerboard square Artificial light
When U eat a bag of Lays potato chips ur running programmed AI computer codes upon which those Mathematical codings are based as instructions on what to assemble
Just like the DNA assembly ur running with ur state of consciousness directed awareness
The planet hologram runs on a very strict mathematical language coded design
An APIN Grid
Application of consciousness directed energy
Ur running the codes on what to experience
The results are called Biofeedback
Ur learning what's good for ur health and wellness and what's Not by choosing to run as programming language codes through ur Biofield DNA super computer
The language of Mathematical codings
BTW have the rattlesnake community already beginning to hibernate?
That's Copperhead country yeah
Eye used to t
Hike and camp out in most of the western hemisphere and remember living in the Ozarks of NW Arkansas which is Cottonmouth territory
Are their Cottonmouths in Appalachia?
Have a beautiful trip

Another great video. Thankyou Shoestring, stay safe and well!
Enjoy the videos. Be safe.

That's not good when people tried to set you on fire
Shoestring your fishing pole / tent pole was good idea you're very resoursefull!
Are you a time traveller it is 2023
Awesome video. Hello from New Zealand
I agree, setting someone on fire is disgusting ! , but great scenery !
Would love to buy some merch , but I'm not paying $70 shipping on a $17 shirt . Sorry
Love your channel though
17:59 that's terrible someone could actually even have the thought to set another person on fire like that. Something tells me they weren't really thinking. What a lack of empathy or consideration. So sorry you had that happen to you.
Too bad they didn't just greet you and sit down to hear a story or two from you. They missed out.
You are not Mr. Beast, get rid of that stupid photo for your thumbnail.
He must’ve smoked pot 10/08/24 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love following you Hobo. Remember your in 2023. You signed 2024 on the bridge.
I really dig UP 4014 sign hanging on your wall. Here in Cheyenne, some of us get real excited when she's rolling.
