This is a vlog and my goal with it is to inspire people. "Get Outside, Go do Something!" I'm an Adventurer, Naturalist, Wilderness Guide, Videographer, Photographer and Martial arts instructor. For me it's all about bushcraft, backpacking, ultra-lite hiking and long distance hiking, I love my Modern equipment, my Vintage Wool Blanket and Canvas tarp alike. Blending old with new. I've done the whole Appalachian Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail and more. Chiefdaddy is my trail name and I am "Chief's Daddy." Chief is my Boston Terrier who has hiked 2500+ miles. I spend a lot of time in the White Mountains, Catskills, Adirondacks, the Rockies and I am based out of Manhattan, NYC. Having hiked over 6000 miles and spending a year of my life in the wilderness has molded my outlook on living with nature.
