The Adventure Archives began in 2009, and, since then, this group of four outdoor enthusiasts have traveled around the world from Japan to Disneyland, documenting their explorations. Hailing from Ohio and Indiana, Andrew and Bryan are brothers, Robby is their cousin, and Thomas is close friend and neighbor. When you watch their videos, you can see the family-like bond between all four of them as they travel to national parks, learn to identify edible plants and make campfire-worthy flatbread. Solo backpacking, climbing a mountain peak, getting caught in a hailstorm—these are just some of the insights you can gain from their 290 videos. They even have teasers about upcoming videos.
