Great to be back in Utah, time for some big mountains and tasty pizza! / forestyforest Merchandise: foresty-forest... Summit Map: drive.google.c... / strava / forestyforest
Hey man, it's Thanksgiving here in the states. Hopefully you and Rocko spend the day doing what you enjoy. I'm headed off to the in-laws with food prepped for a few hours of family gathering. Just want to give thanks to you for sharing your adventures with us over the years. Be safe out there.
Isn’t that something that Rocko has done this so often that she knows you’re headed to the top and now she can reach the goal for you or at least meet you there. What a smart dog. Wow.
Because you choose to share your adventures I have seen mountain top vistas, forest trails, and campsites of healing solice. The real wealth of life. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving.
There was comment where someone asked the following.’’ Who is watching just to make sure Foresty survived another week”. It came along way since then. Loving it!!!
And now I want pizza for Thanksgiving! Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Rocko sure is a great companion. She seems to have a lot of energy which is perfect for doing your hikes and small enough that you can carry her when she gets tired or cold. Plus she’s entertaining to watch her do goofy things.
This channel has it All! Epic cinematography 🎥🏔 Great music 🎶 Adventure!!Drama! A dog 🐶 An outlaw snowshoer 🤠 Plus, Chef Foresty tempting us with his latest Van Life cuisine 🍕🌯🍛🥑
Happy Thanksgiving! Congratulations, Rocko, on summiting your first 12,000 foot peak! And, of course, thank you to Foresty for helping her to get to the top and back down again safely!! Do you suppose that there is a category in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most mountain peaks climbed by a Jack Russell Terrier? This is off the topic of the video, but relates to Foresty being a minimalist: On Friday, November 25, 2022, it is Buy Nothing Day! This is an international day of protest against consumerism. It was started in Vancouver in 1992 by Canadian artist Ted Dave, and has spread throughout North America and Europe. Buy Nothing Day coincides every year with Black Friday. Happy Buy Nothing Day, Foresty! The emphasis on this channel of going out and accumulating adventures and life experiences, over staying home and accumulating a lot of unnecessary material objects is truly an inspiration to me. One of many reasons that I like this channel so much!
@@NancyHanson3472 a well known high achieving Cdn climber by that same name lived there yrs ago. Think Mt Everest... Now I see---she's Hansen. Not Hanson. Googled her. 😁
Your video production skills of choosing perfect panning, timing, and music choice are all just perfect. The pizza looks so yummy. I will have to try that recipe. Rocky on top of the summit was just too cute like look dad I made it. What took so long? 🐶 Happy Thanksgiving to all of the subscribers in the states. You made my day Forestry Forest.
The slopes of those two mountains are more to my liking. 😁 Rocko is such a joy to watch. My diet isn’t the same as Simon’s, but one of my favorite parts of his videos is watch him prepare and eat his meals.
I’m watching this late morning of US Thanksgiving Day. Excellent story telling! Great mix of you and Rocco prepping, decision making, scenery and night time in the van. Perfect!!
There's nothing wrong with going south and finding a warmer climate for the winter, I'd be doing the same if work didn't get in the way :) Looking forward to your adventures this winter!
You should hit up Fremont Indian state park not too far from there. Lots of hiking trails and petroglyphs and beautiful scenery. There’s some hot springs in Monroe as well.
It’s been a while since you showed up on my feed! Made sure to hit the notification bell this time! Rocko’s all grown up! Same markings as my JRT as well ❤. Always a pleasure watching your videos, no arrogance or better than thou attitude! Exactly how you were when you started with the little Chevy. Keep on trekkin! 🤙
Your pup may be squirming at night because she’s cold. Cover her with a little fleece blankie. Gives them security too. So Beautiful up there, amazing, almost 12,000 feet. Gorgeous drone and camera footage. Nice job on that pizza. Love your wood stove, cozy.
It's marvelous to watch you and Rocko soar so high in the mountains. The drone videos take my breath away showing the heights and beauty of the mountains. Thank you.
BDE made me laugh 🤣 giving thanks to you & the little weasel Rocco for the tons of great videos filled with epic views and landscapes, storytime and cookery, keeping us all entertained. Take care, love from the UK.
Love the videos. Been watching for a few years now and really like the mountain hiking you do. To do it with a dog; sometimes carring her, is impressive. Hope you like the states as much as I like Canada. Two unbelievably beautiful countries.
Foresty glad to see you on this day, initial nice shot of the van from the drone, little Rocko climbing with you and unbelievably drone shots of the mountain tops, and wow the pizza at the end. Thank you very much, really enjoyed this one!
Seeing Rocko waiting for you at the Summit was the Cutest ever..... She's the...."Type of Person".... With BGE.... That is your Greatest Hiking Buddy..... Both of you Stay Safe & Thanks...
After making this about 2-dozen times over the year I find that if you let the dough rise a bit before rolling it out you get a better crust - and - to make sure you poke some fork holes all the way through before air frying the dough otherwise you end up with giant air bubbles.
Just stumbled across your channel. Really dig it. I just spent the last year building out my own van. It's a lot to undertake just learning how to live a new lifestyle let alone record a channel.
When you say; “it’s time to go back to the Van and make some dinner “ it reminds of the time you had the “Slow Cooker”,,,, then anytime you got back from your hike, Dinner was already ReaDy,,, 🥰🥰👍👍🙏🙏
Tip for pizzas. When you use watery vegs like mushroom and peppers if you put down some bread crumbs down on the sauce it absorbs the moisture and will keep pizza from getting mushy.
Been watching since you rode your bike through the US.. then the minivan... then the big van...and now big van and minidog. Still can't wait until you post the next video! You're living the dream, Mr. Forest. Hope to catch you out on the road, someday!
We went to Utah in ‘68 but only went to Salt Lake City. I see that we missed a lot of places. Thanks Simon for sharing this with us! Sending you & Rocko lots of hugs and love!❤️❤️
My son watched you making that pizza, in a van, and was blown away. He said the pizza looks delicious. I've been watching you for years and dream of van life. All of my son's (all grown) think I've lost my mind!🤣
Happy Thanksgiving, hiking to the top of a small mountain on my coastal ranch with my parents in the afternoon for a picnic, the peak has a sweeping view of the pacific and temp will be like 65 degrees.They are bringing a backpack full of beer lol.
You've probably heard that it's U.S. Thanksgiving today, so I will add you and Rocko to y list of things to be thankful for as I get to see the beauty of nature through your lens. Thank you, you are appreciated !
Love seeing you explore Utah! Just want to let you know I got a house in Sandy UT if you ever need somewhere to stay or work on your van when you're passing through SLC. Happy turkey day!
Always interesting to see Foresty making a return to parts of the world that slightly resemble my back yard. Stay safe brother and Happy Thanksgiving to you as well (PS: Even if you're not American, everybody is welcome to enjoy a meal and spend some time meditating in gratitude for and with friends and family, no matter how big or small that circle is. Misunderstood and underrated holiday imho.)
Thanks for another great video! I really enjoy the views of the places you take us too. When you cooked up that pizza, I got hungry all over again 😁It is great how you keep the food interesting and seem to make great stuff to eat. Enjoy your time down in the US. I look forward to seeing the adventures of you and Rocko😃
Hey Foresty!!!! I was asked what I'm thankful for on this Thanksgiving. I said that I am thankful for Foresty Forest Rocko and the fact that they dropped a new video today. That is what i'm thankful for. So thanks!!!! Anyways side thought, Ever consider getting into the sponcership game. Its can be tons of $$$ and you seem to really like the Tomaknook cheese brand. Which I also very much enjoy.
Perhaps he's already sponsored by Tillamook but he's just incorporates it naturally into his video. The bag of cheese was front and centre in all the cooking shots.
Hey! newish viewer and subscriber here. Have been really enjoying your videos and always look forward to the next one. Very soothing watching and listening to you after a long stressful day, thanks.
Good to hear you will be doing less risky climbs with wee Rocko enjoy watching the hikes you and Rocko do always such beautiful views from the summit's. Congratulations to Rocko for making that 12000. Pizza done in the air fryer looked tasty shall have to make one up and try it !, nice video be safe.
Happy Thanksgiving to all USA viewers!
Enjoy your day too!
Thank you
--
Thank you and welcome back to the States!
We're all thankful for you, Foresty. Hope you and Rocko get some turkey today
Thanks! We love your videos. Your life seems so peaceful!
I'm sure 99% of your viewer are happy with your choices of doing safer hiking trips and that weasel is a little cutie Rocko 💓
She's a spunky little gal!
Yup!
Yep
For me seeing Rocko ,drone footage and cooking in that order .Don't need to see him risking his life .
Honestly, I didn't even notice he was doing safer hiking trips.
I laughed so hard when I saw Rocko staring down at you from the summit 🤣 She needs a cape, little 4 legged super hero!
You know it's gonna be a good evening, when you sit down with your dinner and see a notification about a new video from Forest! :D
Ain’t that the truth
you posted this in the morning of thanksgiving for most people, I assume your in Australia or something?
@@turkey4957 From Denmark, so probably like 6 hours or so difference i believe.
Rocko is amazing, the altitude didn’t seem to slow her down at all. What a dog!
Hey man, it's Thanksgiving here in the states. Hopefully you and Rocko spend the day doing what you enjoy. I'm headed off to the in-laws with food prepped for a few hours of family gathering. Just want to give thanks to you for sharing your adventures with us over the years. Be safe out there.
Love playing " Where's Simon " during the drone footage.
Isn’t that something that Rocko has done this so often that she knows you’re headed to the top and now she can reach the goal for you or at least meet you there. What a smart dog. Wow.
I am very surprised that there no one ever mentions the music in your videos. It’s always so beautiful.
Because you choose to share your adventures I have seen mountain top vistas, forest trails, and campsites of healing solice. The real wealth of life. Thank you.
Happy Thanksgiving.
There was comment where someone asked the following.’’ Who is watching just to make sure Foresty survived another week”. It came along way since then. Loving it!!!
That little weasel is a real Champion !🥇
9:08 For those who have not had Tillamook cheese, you don't know what you're missing.
I noted Foresty's excellent taste as well. Tillamook is great!
Rocko figured out that getting to the top is why you are there. Now she wants to be first. Very fun.
“Rocko, you little weasel!” - that’s gotta be on the next Foresty Forest t-shirt 😂
And now I want pizza for Thanksgiving!
Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Rocko sure is a great companion. She seems to have a lot of energy which is perfect for doing your hikes and small enough that you can carry her when she gets tired or cold. Plus she’s entertaining to watch her do goofy things.

Ever live in Canmore?
No, I ate lunch in Canmore once (on my way to Banff for an International Wolf Symposium at the Banff Centre), but I never lived there. Why do you ask?
@@NancyHanson3472 a well known high achieving Cdn climber by that same name lived there yrs ago. Think Mt Everest...
Now I see---she's Hansen. Not Hanson. Googled her. 😁
You do realize, people just go buy that stuff later, right. It has gotten to where they have their sales for more than one day.
Your video production skills of choosing perfect panning, timing, and music choice are all just perfect. The pizza looks so yummy. I will have to try that recipe. Rocky on top of the summit was just too cute like look dad I made it. What took so long? 🐶 Happy Thanksgiving to all of the subscribers in the states. You made my day Forestry Forest.
Thanks so much!
Rocko certainly knows the assignment. I see her gloating. Sunny mountain top images really lift the heart, great way to start my morning.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you find something in your life every day to be thankful for.
An out-law snowshoer is the best kind! Woo hoo on #172 +3 FF, and #28 +9 for Ms. Rocko! 😛🍕🍕 All awesome.👍😎🇨🇦🐾
Thanks! Hope this gives you comfort on Journey's !!!; )
Thank you Richard! Appreciate your support 🙂
You’re just a few hours from me. Utah has such beautiful landscapes, I’m glad you and Rocco are enjoying your time in this neck of the woods.
100% thankful for FF and Rocko taking care of each other and staying well. ❤️
The slopes of those two mountains are more to my liking. 😁
Rocko is such a joy to watch.
My diet isn’t the same as Simon’s, but one of my favorite parts of his videos is watch him prepare and eat his meals.
last week: Laundromat Review. This week: log review.
"Rocko you little weasel" 😂
Happy Thanksgiving! We are thankful for you and Rocko!
The pizza looks more delicious than any pizza that I saw in the last 30 years from restaurants! #1 favourite channel 🫶🐾💕
Thank you 😊
It is always a pleasure to see you and Rocko, take care.
I’m watching this late morning of US Thanksgiving Day. Excellent story telling! Great mix of you and Rocco prepping, decision making, scenery and night time in the van. Perfect!!

Thumbs up for Roco taking the win
Congratulations Rocko! 12,000 ft. Thanks!
Thank you 🐕 🍻
Interesting to see the difference between the mountains of Utah and BC/Alberta. Thanks for sharing your travels, Foresty.
Love your content. Wondering if you might put out a cookbook in the future?
Thank you! Well certainly something to think about..
Great landscape and great music going with it. Congrats to Roco doing her first 12000'er.
It’s been a while since you showed up on my feed! Made sure to hit the notification bell this time! Rocko’s all grown up! Same markings as my JRT as well ❤. Always a pleasure watching your videos, no arrogance or better than thou attitude! Exactly how you were when you started with the little Chevy. Keep on trekkin! 🤙
The only bad attitudes can be found in the comments 😁

Spring time in Central Oregon is incredible. Crater lake and all 3 Sisters.
The drone shots, car shots, and everything else is impeccable. You get better every time, Foresty. ❤️ Happy thanksgiving to you and little Rocko!
The Tusher mountains are great. Welcome back to Utah
BDE made me laugh 🤣 giving thanks to you & the little weasel Rocco for the tons of great videos filled with epic views and landscapes, storytime and cookery, keeping us all entertained. Take care, love from the UK.
Holy COW that pizza looked delicious! Happy turkey day!
Love the videos. Been watching for a few years now and really like the mountain hiking you do. To do it with a dog; sometimes carring her, is impressive. Hope you like the states as much as I like Canada. Two unbelievably beautiful countries.
Welcome (again) to Utah. If you don't like the weather wait five minutes or so or drive five miles. Lol.
Welcome, Foresty. Again 🙂
Nice to see you and Rocko today. Happy Thanksgiving to you both!
Foresty glad to see you on this day, initial nice shot of the van from the drone, little Rocko climbing with you and unbelievably drone shots of the mountain tops, and wow the pizza at the end. Thank you very much, really enjoyed this one!
Seeing Rocko waiting for you at the Summit was the Cutest ever.....
She's the...."Type of Person"....
With BGE.... That is your Greatest Hiking Buddy..... Both of you Stay Safe & Thanks...
Looks like footprints going up to Rocko......
But she still looks Cute waiting for you to come back....
YESSSSS!!!!!
Always seems like you post when I'm feeling the blues and need an escape.
Thank you Forresty Forrest!

Reminds me of the Scottish Highlands, albeit quite a bit higher! Beautiful day for a hike.
Just stumbled across your channel. Really dig it. I just spent the last year building out my own van. It's a lot to undertake just learning how to live a new lifestyle let alone record a channel.
Gotta love that Canadian humor, "no idea where I am" *camera pans over sign 🤣
Beautiful views superb editing great pizza and Rocko! This was great. Happy Thanksgiving.
You're in America....
So I believe I am safe in saying HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!! 😁
To Foresty, Rocko, and all!
Dog said "what about me? I hiked to 12,000 ft and I deserve some pizza as well!"
When you say; “it’s time to go back to the Van and make some dinner “ it reminds of the time you had the “Slow Cooker”,,,, then anytime you got back from your hike, Dinner was already ReaDy,,, 🥰🥰👍👍🙏🙏
Thank you for your Thanksgiving gift to us here in the states!
Seeing your pizza made my stomach growl! Lol
Your footage is like no other!!! The views are like something you would see on National Geographic Television.
Tip for pizzas. When you use watery vegs like mushroom and peppers if you put down some bread crumbs down on the sauce it absorbs the moisture and will keep pizza from getting mushy.

Jack Russells - the best dogs ever. We have two that totally love going away in the van for JR adventures! 🐶🐶
Happy Thanksgiving to you too Foresty🦃...and thank you for the Thanksgiving treat.
Once again your aerial videography is spectacular!
Good-looking pizza Forest! Enjoy your stay with US!
So cool to see you in the southwest again! The variety of places in the last handful of videos is such a cool surprise
Another very enjoyable vid. The mountains there are so different looking than the ones in Canada, but still so beautiful. Thanks!
Watching Foresty Forest cook is so relaxing. And I love Rocko! Thanks for sharing.
Happy Thanksgiving! I’m very thankful for this awesome channel and for Foresty Forest 👍🏽
We went to Utah in ‘68 but only went to Salt Lake City. I see that we missed a lot of places. Thanks Simon for sharing this with us! Sending you & Rocko lots of hugs and love!❤️❤️
Beautiful! Rocco is such a beast! He deserves his own slice….He just climbed 12,000 feet !!
My son watched you making that pizza, in a van, and was blown away. He said the pizza looks delicious. I've been watching you for years and dream of van life. All of my son's (all grown) think I've lost my mind!🤣
An awesome episode!
You have a winning formula for your videos and your production and editing skills are excellent!
Love it all!
Thanks FF!
👍👍👍👊😎
Thanks for sharing your adventures. Makes me wish I could get out and travel and explore but that’s not possible. Be safe in your travels....
My grandparents lived in Beaver. Utah is a beautiful area. I highly suggest checking out the Uintahs
Happy Thanksgiving, hiking to the top of a small mountain on my coastal ranch with my parents in the afternoon for a picnic, the peak has a sweeping view of the pacific and temp will be like 65 degrees.They are bringing a backpack full of beer lol.
You have a coastal ranch? Sounds like heaven on earth.
@@LilyGazou It is, was just out getting firewood all day, I call it the hillbilly workout lol.Just east of San Gregorio.
The La Sal mountains between Gateway Co and Moab Utah are amazing. Lots of old mines.
It's way past bedtime over here in Finland, and seeing that pizza made me really hungry... 🤣👍😎
10:07 sums up a really sweet life you have going there, mister.
Thats doing it man. Hiking mountains and making pizza from scratch in teh van! Good shit.
You are an incredible cinematographer Foresty. Your drone videos are amazing. You pick the perfect spot to show you walking by the camera.
KUDOS!
You've probably heard that it's U.S. Thanksgiving today, so I will add you and Rocko to y list of things to be thankful for as I get to see the beauty of nature through your lens. Thank you, you are appreciated !
That Mount King Edward comes to mind haha, that was bonkers Simon.
Mountains, pup, and pizza! Only thing missing was some skiing off those peaks!
Pizza looks better than mine in regular oven. Yum. Thanks
Love seeing you explore Utah! Just want to let you know I got a house in Sandy UT if you ever need somewhere to stay or work on your van when you're passing through SLC. Happy turkey day!
