Solo Camping and Cooking by the River
Vložit

- Out for a bit of a scouting mission, I set up camp with my tarp on a riverbank and cook up some delicious fish for dinner and listen to the sounds of moving water.
About the Tree at the beginning of the video: I heard this tree making cracking noises from a distance, so I walked up and set up my camera. The thing was about to go. I made sure there was no bird nests or any inhabitants of the tree before I gave it some gentle persuasion. If I had not given it a slight push it would have fallen over in the next few days maybe even hours, the base was completely rotten, and it was just a matter of time before it ended up on the ground. Just to clarify so it does not look as if I’m just going around destroying the forest, it was however super fun to watch it fall.

It's okay. Better safe than dead.
Cool story 😎
No need to explain. You do what’s needed for safety.

I just found your channel two or three nights ago, Xander. Last night watching you (I live alone.) gave me so much peace. I am 72, have never been an outdoorsman, and health issues make such a life probably unwise now. So, thank you so much for making this ol' man feel younger again. You bring back such great memories of the college students I had the honor of teaching for a number of year. Please contine to post. Again, thank you and many congrats on your staying sober. Life will only get better for you!!
You're 72 years young, much love and respect for you♥️
Hop u enjoy the vid man, god bless u ❤️
Never too late sir

@@josephcruz5257 Thanks so very much, and may He bless you too.
This is such a cool channel. Keep up the amazing work my man.
Thanks brother! I really enjoy your channel aswell :)
Love that channel bru
Colab!!
consider uploading more often bro
This is such a sick channel dude. CZcams recommendations coming in clutch
agreed
True true the content these days are sick
Learned a long time ago, that cedar pops out of the fire. Burned a good pair of socks learning that. Wonderful video. Be safe. And remember...you're never really alone. God bless.
Sometimes the best way to learn is the good old hard way lol! Glad you enjoyed it Kim! have an awesome day!
I'm so glad you started talking more in your videos. Adding more of your personality really elevates the videos. Good work, I'm very much enjoying them!
These videos are excellent. The camerawork and color grading are breathtaking! The pefect balance between ASMR and commentary is pleasing and relaxing. You genuinely deserve a ton of subs. Awesome work, man!
Thanks my man. No color grading tho just nature
The spot is perfect , river sound , trees , sunlight ... you got a gem . I’m sure you’ll be revisiting this spot in future as well
Aye it was a real beauty spot
Nature beckons us to go hiking and fills our thoughts at any time of the year! Once you realize that you can no longer stay at home. You literally rip off your jacket and backpack from the hanger and go into the woods. Where there are no people, where the smells of wet pine needles and smoke mix and silence reigns. The forest accepts us as we are. And we are his guests, not the hosts. I am grateful to you for your interesting video!
Well said thanks for sharing
Just want to say i am delighted I have found this channel. This video has inspired me and gave me confidence to do my first solo camping trip, something which I have desired to do for so long.
Ehh right on brother happy to hear! itll be a great experience!
Thanks for demonstrating all the tarp configurations, my tarp game is weak. This channel resonates with me. Playing around with the rocks in the river is something I always do, people can talk all the crap they want, it is just a good time. Really appreciate the concise filming style. I'm impressed that you can do so much storytelling in such a short amount of time. I have only seen a few of your videos so far, but will be watching more. I noticed on another video you asked about length of videos, I treat CZcams as my primary video entertainment. Anything from 5-90 minutes is totally reasonable especially with the interesting content you post. Keep up the great work.
Ehh throwing rocks is the best. Thanks for your comment my friend. Glad your enjoying the videos
Recently stumbled on this channel, absolutely love it ! Complete bliss, keep up the great work
Thanks my friend 😊
Yes
Honestly the most relaxing and best camping channel out there in my opinion. This channel is gonna grow quickly 100%
Thanks for the words my friend I appreciate that
You really took it to the next level with the drone. Been watching you for such a long time now and the quality of your videos are a lot better every single time and its amazing to watch from the side. You are going to get really far with this, i think;) Keep it up Xander. :D
Thanks my friend! I really appreciate that!
Yeah, so I'm binge watching your videos and I'm laughing my ass off at your humor. It's like the best combination: food, outdoors, good camping and a funny & smart guy. Thank you so much for these videos!!
Great stuff man! Tree was a widow maker, better on the ground than on some poor fella
Thanks friend and Aye I agree!
Another awesome video! Watching how you set the tarp up was cool. I particularly like the use of the blaze orange plastic wire ties on the ground. I lost count of the ropes I've lost! The age old problem of sparks from a fire have ruined many jackets, tarps and sleeping bags. Oak logs help but most of the time pine is all thats available. Thanks for keeping it real! I always learn something new from each of your videos! looking forward to your next one!

Hey Rick! Thank you, Thank you! Aye those ties come in handy for both tying up gear and for the tarp. I try and get my hands on hardwood whenever possible but sometimes theres no option for it :p ohh well lesson learned.... again.... Cheers Have an awsome day!
I really enjoyed this video, watched it first thing this morning while enjoying my cup of coffee. Your joy is contagious and your content is inspiring. Stay safe and sober my friend, capture more beauty for the world to see, I’ll be watching. Thank you.
Hey Laura sounds like a lovely morning. Happy to hear you're enjoying the content and will do have a nice day
Absolutely amazing! Your videos brings back so many memories from when I was a scout here in Norway! Last summer I finally got to go on a couple of kanoe trips with my family, it was almost like being back in my scouting days!
I'll definitely follow your videos! Thank you so much!
I’ve become addicted to the videos. Keep making awesome and crafty food please. That’s my favorite part. And cozy sleep setups.
A man with edits as sharp as his saw.
Man of many talents
Wow this video was absolutely beautiful. That short drone footage was the cherry on top.
"Charcuterie, Shawshank Redemption" lol, you crack me up bro 🤣
That's the life! There's something mesmerising about a campfire, or even an open fire at home. I could sit and look at it forever. So calming...
you are the man.. this is real camping.. that fire making is awesome.. wish i can travel with you. lol
Right on thanks my friend
I'm really happy that CZcams recommended your channel! So in love in your videos!
I too been watching for two to three weeks and I am really enjoying your videos. Thank you Xander, be safe and looking forward to more videos. Best regards from me.
I love everything about these videos, stunning art and passion
You are a real inspiration on how to live life.
Thanks man cheers
I wish I was joking but Xander legit can cook a delicious looking meal at campsite than I can at home in my own kitchen 😂😂
I love how you make your trip / camping videos...the place, the beautiful Canadian wild .. the sound of the river, oh, so relaxing, as if im really ,literally camping with you. Keep up the good work.
Aerial video was so excellent, and with the sunset !! And so was the meal. Made me so hungry.
You should have a tv show! Id watch it!!
that would be awsome!
He has something better, a youtube channel without interference. Does it his way.
I tweeted the episode with the moose encounter to Netflix for them to see. Lets see whats gunna happen.
10:58 love those shots of the calm fire with you working in the background mate looks wicked 👍
Thanks Friend! it was a nice place to be!
جميل جدا
Your posts are therapeutic Xander. They instill tranquility. It is so beautiful beside that river. Thanks!✨✨✨✨✨🙂
Thanks Paddy as always my friend
I lobe your videos mate. Please keep going. I’ll share this videos as much as I can.
Great video once again, inspiring. Loved the drone footage. Cheers from Hungary! :)
Cheers my friend
It’s better that the tree falls safely rather than on a passing hiker or any creature. The fact it was fun
Is a side issue. Love your videos, they are so chilled. Keep safe
The whole video is such fun to watch with the sound of the water flowing by.
Xander, I love your videos! Love how fast you collect and cut wood. Also like your meals ad how you cook them. Thanks much, Lou
Great way to start the day, cup of joe, and Xander on the TV! Genuinely believe you'll be among the biggest in this space within a year or two, looking forward to more🙌
Sounds like a nice morning lol see thanks Giske I really appreciate that my man!😊
Humble request to make loger versions of each video like 1 2 hours long. This is amazing as background noise for any task, even programming.
I see what your saying
Excellent camp 🏕. Very interesting and peaceful. Thank you.
this video relaxed me a lot when i really needed it. thank you. the river is beautiful
Things us men like to do : throw rocks in water, simple and fun
When you're out there - what do you do to pass time? Don't get me wrong, I love nature and could sit for hours but are you reading, writing, meditating or just chillin? Love your channel! Can't wait to see you grow!!
Filming takes up alot of time which I enjoy. But reading writing and mediation if I have free time or just staring at the fire
Love the sound of the water😍😀😍
Such spectacular views from that drone. The sounds of the river are also very relaxing. Thanks for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks brother
I have anxiety issues and this kind of videos helps a lot to make me slow down and relax. Watching this makes me imagine that I am there also. Thank you.
Just found your channel and it’s already one of my favorites. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Good luck on the river and be safe. Looking forward to seeing your next trip.
