- Forest service sent me an angry letter saying I had to fix a bunch of stuff on the property around my cabin but the only way to access the backcountry cabin this time of year is by ATV.

I seriously don’t know why, but this channel i can’t stop watching. Heavy D is a natural on camera and just seems authentic. Not over edited, not faked, just fun adventures.
He pays professionals to do the editing and what not they make him look good ...
And it’s the life he lives
@@movingearth3726 he also has a life with his wife and kids plus he has his company to so I dont blame him for getting editor's to make it easier
@@movingearth3726 yeah every CZcamsr does especially the work that HE does he definitely should have someone hired it’s just the smart thing to do. And those professionals don’t make him look good, Heavy D does that shit all on his own!!! He produces The GREAT content and they edit the video and chop it up simple as that. They don’t make him look good, he just had good content that’s all.
He definitely is trained in reality tv!
So many of his videos he does just like Discovery channel
25 minutes of him saying how hard it might be and list of every far fetched possibility of what COULD go wrong!
Gold rush
Oak island
Heavy rescue.
It’s a tried and test formula to keep people watching, at best, extremely mediocre content.
As a certified propane technician, you have 2 options. Get a certified letter from your propane supplier stating that the 2nd tank is needed for btu capacity of cabin and hand that to forest department. Or notify forest department that tank will be removed when empty and get a drift hose from propane company to tie the tanks together. Once tanks empty it will slide on the snow just fine without a sled or anything. We do it all the time in winter
Hank Hill for the save
It will slide even full with those monster toys this guy has you kidding he's doing it to have fun. When you work hard playing hard comes easy.
That tank is kinda small for a 500 pounder. The 2 500lb tanks I have hooked up to my house are both bigger than the tank they moved
(a) the cabin isn't heated by gas. (b) FS doesn't care. you get one tank. (it's in a document nobody bothers to read.)
Also, the building itself is made of wood. That's as much a fire hazard as the pile of fire wood.
Lol tanks empty now
I love hearing the tank empty in the background
Only heavy D could get a million people to watch him make a video about his Sunday chores lol. Love this channel
I can see how that fire wood might catch fire under 20" of snow. That is such a huge hazard. Snow is very flammable. Especially mountain snow.
I can't help but wonder how they knew it was under that pile of snow!
Satellite images. I deliver fuel for tug boats. We are monitored by satellite. Big brother at their best.
My grandpa was in the forest service for like 50 years and he always called them the forest CIRCUS. Total idiots
The city of Detroit would call that fire wood "Rat Harborage"
ONLY if the fire had a source of oxygen.
I like the subtle sounds of you emptying the tank. LOL
LPG is heavier than air. Vent the gas, and it'll pool in low points around the cabin.
Potential Kerblam!
Forest service bureaucrats. Can't have a swing, that's a hazard. *rolls eyes* The firewood buried under snow is a hazard, you have to move it. *sigh* You can't have two tanks, you have to immediately move one of those or be fined. So, can I use a truck? Nope. So, I have to use a 4 wheeler or snowmobile, go up a mountain, attach this tank full of fuel, and then drag it down the mountain because it's a hazard? Yes. And dragging it down the mountain isn't a hazard? Don't ask questions, just do as you're told!
The government is a complete waste of time and money they're nothing but a tick sucking blood
They don’t really care it’s just an opportunity to fine you and gain revenue
Not to mention they just burned off a ton of it so it would be lighter. Meaning there was an open flame when there wasn't a need for it.
I said to and old friend of my fathers this is a free country. He replied. Yes you free to do as your told. This is a dictatorship.
Just like the wood, they could've put it inside the building where it couldn't be seen. (WAY, WAY more unsafe) What's the weight limit of his chopper?
Chances are, a neighbor in another cabin made a report/complaint on those items. Some people have nothing better to do but force already limited agencies to chase ghosts.
Personally I would have written them back a kind letter stating you moved the wood and the strap, and you will remove the tank before next fire season. Then just use up as much propane in the backup system you can through your visits in the winter, and remove it when you could get a truck up.
Forest management personnel are like OSHA, finding stupid little violations get them a pat on the back by superiors.
Somewhere in the distance i hear Hank Hill yelling "not the propane!"
Dale Gribble damn damn government
Right
I like that the FS is concerned about fire hazards going into winter, when that pile will be covered by 5' of snow in no time, and forest fires are non-existent. I know Dave is being nice, but spending time on BS like this is why they're closing campgrounds that people would use in the off season "because they don't have time to patrol". The rangers are often nice fellas, but their directors are a bunch of useless bureaucrats.
Seems like he has a Karen neighbor that keeps complaining.
I used to work for the Forest Service. You are correct about leadership being the problem. There are foolish policies they try to implement from Washington meant for all, but they don't work for every different type of landscape and region. Then you have a WHOLE BUNCH of middle-management people who are more and more young college grads who are snarky, know-it-all overbearing tree huggers who couldn't even install a fence post to save their lives. These people are telling the real workers-the productive ones-what to do and it's often ridiculous.
They also come out into the field and tell some old ranch hand, a man like this fellow HeavyD, or other common sense land owners what they are going to do with their own land. And they do it without any sense of charisma, common sense or kindness. Obnoxious and insistent. They make it hard on the folks like me who tried to actually serve the people and make things better. They have forgotten it is the Forest SERVICE. The point is-not all of them are bad.
Yea that was all absurd. I could maybe understand the dumb rope swing as they could say and animal could get trapped in it but the rest is BS. The forest is full of firewood so who cares about a stack of it near a cabin. The LP tank certainly posed more of a risk moving it than letting it there. They could have easily given a season or two to finish it up and then remove it.
@@txpyroguy817 my thought
I wondered about that same fact. It's nice that there aren't many wildfires in winter. Do they notice that?
I get the sense that some of your cabin neigbors were behind this lunacy! All it takes is one who does not like you (jealously usually) who needs to make you do what they want.
Would love to see an episode where you talk about how you have built your empire at such a young age. The equipment and assets you have normally takes decades to aquire if successful. Would be a awesome video to hear about how you have done that so quickly. Very impressive as a business and a person. I'm sure you have very proud parents.
Get you a highly successful TV show and you'll have money like that.
I'm glad that he's investing in usable equipment that can make him money rather than blowing on "Coke, Whores" and "that" lifestyle.
@@ElvenJustice Whats wrong with "Coke, Whores" ??? 🤔🤔🤔
@@renevillalvazo8279 Hahaha! Great comment.🤣🤣🤣
@@ElvenJustice Just made me giggle!!! This is true tho!!
“It’s freezing cold today” while wearing a tank top 😂
I wish I could help with the propane tank. My dad has a propane company in vernal. I have done crazy propane shit my whole life. I am sitting here watching this from texas wishing I could help. But you got this!! Good job man.
i think he meant on top the mountain where it's considerably colder then sea level that's why there's snow in the summer in the mountains
@@donnieharness2 we're not anywhere near sea level here in Utah, most of our elevation is 4,000 ft. and up.
@@wesman7837 reading comprehension is key
@@donnieharness2 😂👌
The lives saved by removeing that tire swing are incredibly huge.
Helped prevent forest fires too. (By not strangling a passing fire fighter?)
Lmao now thats good.....
if it saves even one life!!!!
You wouldn't want Sasquatch to get hurt trying to swing on that thing! 🤣➖😉
I would have built I metal pole right under that tree to hang the swing.💯
I agree that is ridiculous having to move minor stuff like that! Especially with all those fallen trees laying around! Always like the adventure videos and the videos about your every day life and the things you do on off days. All the content is Awesome!!! Keep it coming!!!
As someone in Australia, who never sees snow in the area I live, I just love these snow videos! It's such an alien concept to me to have that much snow be normal.
This is better than the tv show IMO. Tv show feels scripted like the discovery channel template was slapped on it. This is the reality entertainment we need! No network formulas!
There's a tv show about this dude?...lulz
@@poeticdisaster7500 diesel brothers you know with the mage cab trucks
Have you even watched the show?? Be honest
Yes I've watched the show. It's basically the same formula as orange county choppers and gas monkey and all the other ones that have followed.
America needs more men like you
Thank you
God bless
A great blue tarp alternative is pond liners, heavy mill plastic that actually stands up to the elements.
Are the propane tank and tire swing new additions that they just found out about or are these things that were okay previously but now they've decided they're not okay?
The things I’d do to spend a day with this guy are endless
They are living the dream for sure, I would die to have a cabin way out there like that.
That sounds a little gay bro. lol.
@@xAllSystemsReadyx I was saying the same thing except I couldn't deal with owning a remote cabin and having the forests rangers tell me how to stack my wood, that I cant have a swing and all the other bs they have to obey takes away the reason for having the remote camp
@@xAllSystemsReadyx just work for one instead?
Swear
Heavy D’s chores are a lot better then mine
Lol same
I mostly pick up dog shit.
🤣🤣🤣
I love these guys and what they do! They built a huge company and brand!
Thank You for sharing your Adventures
I prefer to see the real side of peoples lives vs what Discovery Channel lets us see.
I used to like watching The Discovery Channel... Now adays i just watch CZcams no fake shit see people for real god bless
@@chriswhitehead8746 that's a pretty scary thought process. It's the same thing. They set up scenarios if you actually pay attention. Enjoy but don't take this as real life.
@@LehmanRacingTeam no it’s not, dude there way more real vs what’s shown on the Discovery channel, so no sorry your dead, dead, dead wrong.
100%
Yeah the unscripted stuff forsure
I can't wait to see HeavyD's version of a conversion adventure van, you know its gonna have all bells and whistles.
Been in construction most of my life since about 10. 63 now and some of the things u all do, I say YUP BEEN THERE!!!! KUDOS my friends keep it up luv the recovers
Been a tree climber/ tree service owner for 20 plus years. Live the equipment guys! Beenin some serious pickles but you guys are set up like nothing I have ever seen.
Lots of fun to watch! Be safe!
Love to sport the f450 around The Garden State
The scenery with the snow and the aspen trees is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.
HeavyD is a one of a kind being who he is with the success he’s had
You are an amazing person David and the rest of your crew ain’t too shabby, keep it up and thank you for everything you do.
You all ROCK. Love watching your video's.
@HeavyDSparks is such a great story telling, for instance, the most hilarious clip in this post occurs with the "forshadowing" with Jim's line at 21:23 about not owning a "hard hat" then wishing he did at 21:51... Laughing out loud every time I watch it!
I'm with you 100% about forest management. Understand they are just doing their job but there is bigger issues.
Love your channel, what you did for Bud was one of the greatest vids.Your heart is wonderful and your head is very grounded.
Keep up the great vids they are a blast to watch. Thanks Dan
I'm glad you brought backup to take down the highly dangerous rope swing
Ah the government. There here to help us. So is santa and the Easter bunny
when the government says "we're here to help" BAR THE DOOR!
Santa is your mother
Don't forget EBT cards
Wooden cabin, surrounded by wooden trees but you can't pile wood next to it 🙆🏻♂️
I just want to hang out with you guys for a couple of days! You crack me up. It’s nice to see someone enjoying life and work, sharing with all of us that can’t/don’t. Thanks for all the laughs. Now pick me as your winner😀
Keep up the crazy entertainment. It takes stupid things and turns them into fun. Laughter just makes life better... enjoy your perspective on dealing with difficult situations. Life's too short to be angry. It took me a long time to realize that answers to difficult problems can be fun. It starts with a smile!! Thanks.
Stumbled across your channel a month ago. Have been binge watching since. Please keep filming so we don’t run out of these awesome videos to watch.
Normal vloggers: I did something crazy, must watch
Heavy D: I pissed of the government, big wheel time.
Why can't you get a free use wood permit for that wood around the cabin
@@bryanluntz1603 that would be convenient
nice of them to give you those notices in the winter time instead of summer smh
Yeh. I agree. It is dumb to send the notice in winter. But maybe the forest service knows what he does for a living. So handed it out anyway. Just being a smart as the forest service can be I.j.m.o.
Love seeing what you guys do on daily, my favorite CZcams channel by far and please please keep bringing more💪🏼 you guys the whole team, solid family!!
I agree 100% about the National Forest Service. You would think they would spend their time a little more productive. Like replacing all the old worn out signs all over the united states. Or the high country fences that are in need of mending. Or removing the dead fall or letting people go and get it for firewood, furniture, etc. I was looking at buying a cabin just like you have but dealing with the forest service made me walk away from the deal.
Yes I agree i think the forest service in every state is like that! And dang that cabin is sick! I would love to go snowmobiling up there!
"The Forest Service doesn't like our Snowcats anymore" lmao
Later he releases the my best friend almost died video... No wonder they don't like his snowcats.
This is the most extreme channel of recoveries and adventures on the internet ever. Love it 👍
so beautiful there thanks for sharing
Always excited when I get the notification of you posting a new video. Keep up the great entertaining content!
You are a great Boss taking time with the guys and taking care of your employees
👍
Hello Heavy D. Can I say that the forest service is a great thing but you would think they would tell you that stuff in the summertime I wanted to be a lot easier to move I don't tell you in the middle of winter time that's my thought May who am I? I'm just a disabled veteran and a retired Florida department of corrections sergeant that worked for 30 years. You guys are the mom I enjoy watching your videos and look forward to next adventure. And again stay safe enjoy yourselves as always do and may God bless you and your families. 🙏🇺🇸
Amazing scenery can see why you love it so much cheers for the shares 👍
Heavy D’s days are a lot more interesting than mine that’s why I like watching there show
Heavy D, you and your crew represent all that is GREAT about our melting pot of a country, you are all great Americans 🇺🇸
hahahah omg bro when you said your wife has kids I about lost it hhahahahaa, ahh man thats a good one. mad respect for leaving that in.
Love how everyone just jumps in and helps
Lucky 🍀 and thanks for coming back to CZcams!!!
I would hide the damm thing, before I would lose that much emergency fuel
We did an Escape Campervan a few years ago and loved it. We flew from OKC to SFO. Visited our son for a day then picked it up. Drove down the coast and eventually ended up at husband's cousin in Oxnard CA. After 2 day visit there, we drove back north back to SFO. It was so nice to stop and camp instead driving hours back our room. We got some awesome pictures. We've thought about doing a Transit Van to travel in. Crazy requests from Forest Service. I understand some of them but not the one about rope swing. I have only visited Utah a couple times. We loved St George and Red Rock area.
I love your channel on CZcams. You have the best channel and the coolest toys. Thank you for taking the time and posting videos.
Great to see you guys on CZcams more, enjoy the show and the new videos. Keep it up.
your passive aggressive commentary is fantastic!!
In Maine we use these things that plow and also throw snow out of walkways and driveways. Very helpful!
Discovered this channel a few weeks ago and binge watching lol
You sir are just a genuine gentleman. i'll never forget what you did for that camper guy. Your life is a dream life, Something we all dream about and your actually doing what we all dream of. . 🎈🎈
I dream of a world where humans have freedom, not be governed by strict governmental laws and to not have atleast half my income taxed. thats a true dream that benefits us all.
@@twiztedclown Should pay the UK a visit, We lost freedom of speech years ago when they made hate speech law. My country has gone to the dogs. So much hate in the world. 🎈
Seems every other day y’all get into another recovery mission. Lol glad to see I’m not the only one. Love it!
Hi fellas, love watching Y'ALL on youtube and been watching for a long time. Keep on keeping on BROS.
Love the sound of hissing in background is that tank being vented lol
Yeah its definitely being vented, wonder how much that fine was
Let the EPA deal with forestry 😂
My gosh Utah is beautiful. I love watching your videos they always make me laugh and feel good. Thanks for the great content. Can’t wait for the tires vs tracks.
Not only do the tires get better grip by letting the air out but flotation increases incredible. We here is Iceland travel the mountains in trucks, vans and other 4x4 vehicles. But letting the air out of the tires without special rims, like you said, is not a good idea. We run our trucks from 10 down to zero psi in heavy snow. So much fun seeing how much these vehicles on 36-54 inch tires are capable.
Looks cold guys. I retired in Panama watch your videos all the time really enjoy them.
I wish more of my chores included an atv ride in the snow.
Keep up the great content fellas! Love all the same things that you guys are doing
Good thing you stated the truth about .more problems due to the dos and don't. I'm so sick of what's correct or not. Be respectful and do the best you can. Loving the videos stay safe, and thanks for sharing
Great advertisement for the Government! Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
Hmmm. Never thought I'd be sitting here watching a video of some bearded men hitting a propane tank with a pickaxe, but here we are.
Don’t forget: standing & swinging on a rope swing with an open blade, cutting the rope waiting to fall with blade in hand 🤦♂️
Love your show, love your products and love what you guys do!! Keep up the amazing work!!
We need to demand that the national forest service get our forest in shape .
guys keep up the good work,your good folk so dont get riled by haters...peace out from scotland
“It’s crazy cold today” *wearing a tank top*
getting snow tires for my wheeler. Looks like fun. Cabin chores are never ending. Thanks for more Forest Service.
Dude just started watching these I love it y’all rock
I love this show. Just found it a bit ago and you helped Brent at Cerro Gordo..
I had that same vinyl in my cabin LOL from the 70s
I love that you guys are going to be making some of those vans. They are pretty sick and super versatile.
Man heavy D you have a vision. That is rare. I was in the start of building a truck. And then every thing hit the fan dad died. And gave everything to my
Nephew. He had a biz ness. I was working for him. And my nefew said he wood give me the truck it was a water truck. Right when he died he took it all away so i could not pay my bill lost my truck. He tried to to kill me. Money dose crazy thing. But anyway thanks for doing this show it keeps me going even now i am in a weelchare no miss going out off road. So please keep the shows coming george .wright. Ps i had a 96 chevy long bed extra. Cab. 6 inch lift 35. Thanks again
Your videos are great not just because they are entertaining but real life!!
I just want to say that y’all are living my dream life I don’t have the money or health to do what y’all do but I love watching your video’s please don’t stop and you are making my life better I just want to tell you thank you and may god bless you in everything you do
“It’s freezing cold today” and he’s wearing a tank top😂
Lol at least he has something to show for it.
Utah style! 💪
muscles don't feel the cold.
Tank top to recover a “ tank “ 🤷🏻♂️
Your system is so imaculate, It gives great idea's of ways of doing things and best ways of working to get things accompliched. I find your program highly interested, and help me do thing in the bush while cutting logs, firewood and fence posts.
You guys are awesome!
More videos form the best CZcamsr
Aaand legend has it, he's still trying to get those damn keys outta the door..😂😂👍
I love your shows keep up your programs.
It's hard for myself to get back in with no job, no money, and putting my life back on track after a long stay in jail. I'll make the best of what I have and enjoy your show is wonderful to see. Thanks!
I like what you do with all trucks this show is badass keep showing more thanks bro
The Government never has to make sense - give me one example when anything the government has recommended has made sense. Keep it up!!
Making murder illegal was a pretty good idea.
@@Pickleriiiiiick ow you think making murder illegal is a good idea so now I have a list of people I can't do anything with that's not good
Love the videos I enjoy watching stuff like this especially snow and mountains I don’t know about mountains but I’m from Minnesota and I know about snow
So pretty of a place. Lots of snow.
I love all of y’all’s videos! Everyone acts like they’re all family members and it’s great! I wish I could be apart of the great Camaraderie that all of u guys have!
Videos I actually enjoy watching 😅. Can’t wait to see what the forest service requests next 🤦🏻♂️
