- Solo hike along the Lockett range to camp beside Ruby Lake in Kahurangi National Park. First time out using my full light weight gear load out which performed very well. The Nemo Hornet Elite OSMO tent is an absolute joy to use and I am extremely happy with it so far. This was a great camp and the hike in was incredible. Enjoy.

Wow a year ago, hoping for a thousand subs and now you have 37000, WAY TO GO, your content, is EPIC
Wow, absolutely stunning cinematography my friend. Shots are truly amazing! 🔥
Thank you 🏔
OMG I feel so humbled by the sheer beauty of this place, through your lens. Thank you.
Fantastic cinematography!
Backpacking season's over up here in California, so I'm living vicariously through your videos. Subscribed, and can't wait for the next one.
Thank you. You should come to New Zealand sometime and do some of the trails here.
Well done for that swim, epic.
OMG that Lake where you filled the water AMAZING, am not used to seeing places with no other people about, heavenly.
OMG how stunning
Thanks for showing us the spectacular views
Super cool . Merci
Love the aerial shots, well the whole vid, well done, thank you, very beautiful country!!! I do love a good reviving swim!!
Cheers man. Swimming in the remote lakes is so good after a days walking.
Scanning CZcams every weekend waiting for a new video. Goes without saying another fantastic video. Beautiful country down there. Thanks again for bringing your adventures into our sitting rooms.
It is my pleasure. Thanks for the nice comment
I watch all your amazing videos and are all so fantastic and unique in their own but this one for some reason I absolutely love it ....I think a combination of your awesome drone footage and cinematography combined with this area has such a special place in my heart. Beautiful m8
It’s a nice spot. I want to go back at some stage. I might try go over from the Cobb valley to save walking up over iron hill.
sweet sounds like a great mission.🤙
Brews with views - love it and can’t beat it!
Yeah man coffee in the hills
Is the best
I hope to see you do many more trips with that tent. I'm very interested in how well it can hold up to many usages. Great work on the video! Some wonderfully scenic shots.
I will. I have done a several on my channel if your keen to see more. Thanks
Clever move appealing to the other 50% of the population @9:05, (watch for the analytic spike) I was wondering when you’d show off 😂 Surprised you being a foodie being into noodles. Another great video.
Lol pretty sure last I looked the largest demographic of views come from 55-65 year old men. I was starving big walk with lots of elevation gain. I generally eat pretty bland food day to day so noodles a dirty treat
Love your videos. Very informative and entertaining. Excellent drone shots and video editing. I am sure you will get your 1000 sub's. Thank you for your good work.
Thank you for the feedback glad you enjoy the videos.
Just awesome, as always! 👍😊
Yeah it was an awesome camp. Definitely get up there some time if you can
I liked the swimming shots 😍🥰
Same
Victoria, as you should. That look takes discipline and effort, you two are the complete package and I have all faith that you will achieve great things together 🥇
Great vid! Love your storytelling and cinematography skills, subscribed!
Thank you appreciate the feedback.
Beautiful spot, will definitely check it out.
Well worth the trip.
Good!!!!
👍
Out of this world! Great vid!
Such a good spot there. We will go back at some point in summer
That’s so awesome 😎 I live my adventures through your videos 🙌
great video, just subbed, would love to travel across the ditch to do some hikes sometime soon, keep up the great work, on a side note, where is the shirt you were wearing on the first day from? look super comfy
love your videos mate, keep at it
Thanks will do
Ce frumos este in Noua Zeelanda.
Great solo adventure man! We jumped in off the rocks on that left point. Clearly saw two shoals of whitebait swimming past in the lake! That was in January few years ago, would have been much colder for your swim. Tent looks perfect for that trip.
It’s pretty nice up there although the walk in over iron hill seems a bit much for an overnight trip. I reckon you could pretty easily make it up from the Cobb valley. Yeah the tent is awesome love it so far
@@AbelandVictoria yes that route could be worthwhile, far less walking distance. We were on a three day trip via iron hill to lakes lille, diamond ruby lockett etc. We felt like heading up cobb this weekend but its tad moist.
@@kanehartill4178 there is a lake on the way out to mt Snowden that is unnamed. My brother went there last summer said it was incredible spot. I think I’ll go there for a mission the ridge looks intense from kakapo peak though. Have you managed to get out on a camp lately?
@@AbelandVictoria no camps since iron lake!
Visiting that lake looks like a cool mish. The ridge is pretty craggy is it. I've always thought it would be ideal if there was a track from Fenella down the Waingaro to link the Cobb to the Anatoki area. Then could hike tracks from Anatoki to Karamea or Courthouse flat. You have your summer pack pretty much optimised now eh... Be interesting info for viewers if you could weight it at start of video.
@@kanehartill4178 going from lonely lake hut up past drunken sailor then down the dragons teeth low route to Anatoki river then short walk down the river to the anatoki forks hut would be a pretty nice way to go. Doc could pretty easily make a little track to link that up. I wouldn’t might going into bush for a week and making a track like that would be fun.
I’ll try and remember to weigh my pack next trip. I’m tempted to get a little titanium wood burning stove thing for summer. Be super light and relaxing to use
Very nice video mate,awesome
Cheers mate
U look like Thor 😅..great vid 👍
😂 thanks
Subbed brother 😄 keep it up! Stay blessed!
Thank you appreciate it
Beautiful video, brother! I'd love to get down to New Zealand someday. I've thought about coming the trips that my friends and I go on, and I love the cinematic look that you produce. Can you give the bare bones description of what you did here? Seriously well done, just beautiful.
Thanks man. What would you like to know?
@Abel & Victoria I'm a complete novice to videography. To get a more cinematic look, do you use frame rate (30fps?), a filter in post- production, both? I'm sure the quality of the camera probably has much to do with it as well? I guess I'm trying to learn how someone differentiates a nice, high-resolution video from something like your video that looks like well produced, documentary quality video.
I appreciate any direction! Keep up the amazing videos!
@@jbrown2099 I don’t really know much either lol. I just learn as I go. I do 24p and try to set up the shots nice. I use Sony a7c which is a decent camera. I don’t do any colour grading but have tht camera set internally to produce a kinda graded look.
I think how use actually take the shots makes a big difference. Also tht right lens for the shot. Im sure if u watch some pros on CZcams you will get better answers
@@AbelandVictoria awesome, thanks!
Ive looking 1000 videos to find one is summer in sunshine 😊
There are plenty lol
Do you have a drone that is following you & showings us the landscape around you when you're walking to your spot to make camping when your not using your camera??????
Not following
Amazing aerial shots! Q. Is it possible to do the ridge walk on the other side of the Cobb - from Mt Peel along to Aorere Peak or is the ridgeline too steep? Tx
Yeah you could do. I haven’t done it but it looks reasonable. I think there are a few blog posts floating around of peoples experience of the peel range.
Great video, another place to add to my list when I'm fit enough.
Aside question; do you find shooting these adds much time to your walk?
I ask as you have lots of shots of you walking to / from the camera, etc
Oh and where did you get that hat?
I also need to cover up in the sun and have a similar one from macpac, but the sides tend to blow up in the wind
Yeah it’s definitely a worth while trip. Beautiful spot.
As a percentage of total time not that much. I don’t walk huge distance away from the camera as I see some other people doing in videos. I use setting up the camera as a time to rest a bit. I’d say the extra bulk and weight of all the filming gear is more impactful.
Fantastic channel mate. I'm glad I found it. How do you find that tent? I'm looking to find a nice summer tent and was looking at that model but it does look a bit anemic. How does it handle NZ conditions in decent rain/wind?
Thank you. The tent is definitely sacrificing strength to reduce overall weight. I wouldn’t want to have it up on the tops if some bad weather was coming in. If you can be a bit more picky as to when you head out on trips and can be sure of some decent weather the tent is very lightweight and still had the benefit of being double walled and a side access door. I am 185cm tall and about 88kg I find it to be plenty big enough. It’s a pretty specialist tent really and not for everyone. But if you want super light weight and still have some nice liveability features it’s definitely a good option. I love it so far.
this is a strange question maybe, but, do you ever struggle internally with the documentation process of journeys like this? like do you have internal tension over setting up the camera just to walk past it multiple times on a hike and how it pulls you out of the moment? because there's the element of contrivance? or do you take the whole thing in stride in a certain way
rlly curious, it's just something i think about a lot lately as i'm getting into photography/video making and backpacking myself
Hey. Nah I set out on a mission to make the video so it’s just apart of the trip. I enjoy all parts of the trip as it’s my passion to make the videos and this is apart of the experience. I don’t walk past the camera as much now as my style has progressed but it’s all apart of it
Absolutely love your videos, wondering what pack you have and it’s pros and cons? And would you recommend it?
Thank you. I have the Mac pac hesper 55 in this vid. It’s great light weight pack with plenty of storage. Pretty comfortable and affordable also
@@AbelandVictoria Thanks!
do you ever see any deer or goats used to be prime hunting spot ruby lake cobb areas
I have seen a big stag up on table lands a few months back. I have also seen deer up near the outlet of round lake. Meet a hunter carrying out some deer on his back a few weeks back he shot up on peel range.
thanks im 73 now great to see vids of old areas ive been in
@@dougbarnes8113 sweet might bump into you some time up there.
Amazing spot! How tall are you? Looking to buy the Nemo Hornet and wondering if I'll git in it or not. I'm 194cm.
Yeah it was spectacular and remote. I’m about 185cm. I think the 2 person model maybe longer.
With that quality of filming I can't see any reason why you won't reach the 1000 subs. By the way where are you getting the tooth paste from?
I want to make the videos better but still not really sure what kind of style I like best. The tooth past tabs I got from poppack.co.nz they are pretty good a bit different to normal toothpaste I think I actually prefer them.
