Hey there, fellow adventurers!
I’m Lyle Hatch, the face (and sometimes the muddy boots) behind the Boring Old Guy YouTube channel—and I’m beyond excited to welcome you to my newest online home!
This website is a place where my journey through the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Pacific Northwest continues to grow and evolve. If you’re new here: hello, and welcome! And if you’ve been part of the trail crew for a while—thank you for tagging along and being part of the adventure.
What Can You Expect Here?
This site is more than just a hub for videos. It’s a space where I can share my passion for hiking, photography, camping, and storytelling in deeper and more meaningful ways. You’ll still catch me wandering through misty forests, along rugged coastlines, and beside the calming rush of waterfalls—but now you can also:
- Snag some awesome merch inspired by Summit and my adventures (seriously, check out the shop—it’s got some trail-ready vibes!)
- Purchase prints of some of my favorite nature shots to bring the outdoors into your space
- Stay updated on new video releases, blog posts, and behind-the-scenes stories
Meet the Real Star
Of course, no hike would be complete without Summit, my wild-hearted trailblazer and four-legged best friend. She’s the true spirit of our explorations and the heartbeat of every video.
Join the Journey
Whether you’re a seasoned explorer, weekend wanderer, or just love soaking in the peace and beauty of nature from your screen—this space is for you. I love bringing my audience along for the ride, and I hope these shared moments inspire you to step outside, breathe in some fresh air, and maybe even learn a thing or two about the plants and places that make this world so incredible.
Help Keep the Journey Going
If you enjoy what I’m doing and want to support the channel, here’s how you can help:
- Like, subscribe, and comment on my YouTube videos – it truly helps more than you know!
- Grab some gear from the merch shop – every purchase helps fuel the next trip (and Summit gives it two paws up )
- Share the channel with a fellow nature-lover or hiking buddy
This journey started as a personal one, seeking growth and spiritual connection, and it’s blossomed into a beautiful community. I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s keep wandering, learning, and growing—together.
Take a hike, and be blessed.
Lyle Hatch
