- Chilko lake is an absolute gem, and for many reasons. It is remote, it is untouched, it is beautiful and pristine, and most of all there are no people. It is a difficult place to get to, so even during "peak season" there is a high possibility you wont even see one tourist. The water is crystal clear on the northern tip, rich blue in the middle and a beautiful milky turquoise at the inflow from the glaciers. Chilko is the largest high elevation fresh water lake in North America, and with that comes some pretty volatile weather patterns. I had planned to stay much longer to explore more of the lake and area, but after two days of trying to wait out the wind, and several more to come, I felt it wise to move on and find some beauty elsewhere.
Taseko lake is another beautiful location, but even harder to access, so it felt like the right location to attempt. The first attempt was to the east shore of the lake, but unfortunately this route is no longer open. The route to the west shore is the only other access, but has not been maintained in more than a decade. One thing that this channel offers me, is a schedule flexible enough to take the time to attempt these more difficult routes and locations, and I am so happy that I pushed for this one. It was a full day of chopping, cutting and 4x4ing but the view at the top was one that I can not even begin to describe. This new rig has offered me the chance to push for these amazing places, and I truly feel like I am earning them.
I am so excited to be exploring up in these remote mountains, and I am proud to be sharing it with all of you.

Been watching for a few years now, as a fellow Canadian I think you show people just how amazing our country is. Thanks for all the hard work.
Well said friend, Dustin has done a sublime job of showing your country to the world. I must say Canada must be the most beautiful place I have ever seen. B.C. is a Jewel in your Crown.
Thank you very much.
Agreed. Always loved BC myself and to see these remote areas, it's so beautiful.
You are so right. Your country is absolutely breathtaking!! Always wanted to visit, but would never be able to see it like Dustin shows it to us. Dustin you do such an awesome job!! As always!!
Amazing area, one of the nicest spots in bc for shure🤙🏻🤙🏻
This is possibly your most amazing series so far. The visuals are just breathtaking. I most definitely am living vicariously though these adventures, and can only dream of one day getting to do something like this. Can’t wait for more!
Dustin I must admit, I wasn’t 100 % sure about the build of this adventure camper. But as it was being built and following all of the processes it became more clear to me.
What an ingenious idea you had for this adventure rig, and your level of working on the mechanical part of this rig was second to none. Great job Dustin, great job.
Thank you very much.
Nothing better than a cup of coffee, and Dustin doing his thing. Especially when the drone goes up and the music starts! Thanks Dustin for making my day.
Thank you for enjoying.
Canada is pretty good looking. "Just given er through the rock"...said no Yankee. There's some pretty awesome spots out East too. I'm in Worst Case Ontario but it's not bad either. EDIT: for the foreigners he's being a super nice dude clearing these roads. 17:00 is like work. The rest is just respect to the next person.
Hell Yeah!!! We're enjoying this high mountain content. Now my wife watches these with me. We love your videos and your awesomeness personality and humor!!!! Youre living MY best life
Thank you very much.
The editing this week shows the growth you've done over the past couple years. Good work, bud.
I could never thank you enough for what you do for me Dustin. These places you take us to are quite simply stunning as is the Art you create. To produce what you do, in just 7 days is just miraculous. I am so very sorry I am not in a position to help with the cost. Thank you for making me feel like I can Walk and run as i once could, but more than that thank you for making me feel like I can fly. 🎉❤🎉
This comment is plenty enough thank you. I appreciate your words and appreciation.
That hit hard. Thats the best compliment anyone could ever ask for. Hope you are doing ok.
Dustin, your talent as a videographer is amazing and I love living vicariously through your channel, and adding places to our bucket list. Living in Oregon gives us opportunity to go to the mountains but BC is always on an Oregonian’s outdoor mind. Today’s video is really impressive and beautiful. Can’t wait for more!
Anouther pretty place I am soo happy you are uploading videos with out you I would never know what it would be like in that part of the world
Good morning from the south Okanagan, thanks for taking us along once more. We had family who went up into Chilko in the late '60's hunting and they'd describe it for us, but to see it is really something. Good to see you've got a shoo bear device along too sir, one never knows and it pays to pay attention to the details. The photography, especially the drone shots continue to improve - kudos. Safe travels.
What amazing views of the mountains and that lake you're on is stunning too 😊. Dustin this is the content I and everyone are enjoying, travel to these locations, learn some history, and having fun doing it. bravo 😀 👍 thank you
Can't wait for the next video.
Reading the comments there isn't much I could add that hasn't already be eloquently said. There are no words to describe this beautiful corner of the world we live in so your fantastic videos say everything that can't be described. Thanks so much, Dustin!!
Very much appreciated, thank you.
Your channel has upped it's game with this new rig
Incredible content, gets better every time you post. Also makes me so jealous of your life and what you have available on your doorstep. I don't see anything like the sites you see in the UK.
Keep exploring and keep the content coming
Breathtakingly absolutely gorgeous footage! Thank you Dustin for taking us along and showing off such beautiful places.
After last weeks video I said, "I hope he goes to even more remote areas next week". You delivered! I'm a huge fan of the remote destinations. The views are stunning. I was very impressed with you cutting down branches and navigating those back roads, man that was cool. When you came to that clearing and it opened up, wow that was so beautiful. Awesome camp spot. If this is just the beginning of this adventure, I can't wait for the continuation!
What an amazing and beautiful way to get started today. Being able to tag-a-long in this adventure!
Dustin, thanks for sharing your awesome content!! Stay safe and continue with your adventures, Michelle 👌👍
Another flawless video. The photographer is a pro… the editor is also a pro… must be mick doing that lol love your video style dustin. I am hooked!
Love the Mountains and the Water.
I love that you are taking me places I’d never get to see otherwise.
I started doing a lot of solo traveling about 2 years ago. Your videos are truly inspiring! I'll never be on your level, but I still have fun nonetheless!
God and Mother Nature sure did some beautiful work. It's beyond beautiful ❤
Been waiting a while for this one. Was watching a movie and turned it off as soon as I got the notification. I am so happy for you (and me) because I get to see it. I enjoyed the build because that’s close to what I do but the exploring is even better because right now I can’t do it and enjoy every video. I spend too much time on CZcams but your channel is seriously my favorite. I’ve never been to Canada but plan on it now after your videos. Beautiful country. You made my day. Thanks again. Hope the truck is doing great but either way it took you to an amazing place. I live in Kentucky, USA, I wish I was closer to ya and could do a vinyl wrap on the truck and camper. We would have to do something tough to take all the tree branch torcher but it would look good. They actually have a textured one like a spray bed liner texture that I just did a Jeep in. Might would work good. Keep up the great work and keep being yourself. You make the videos great. Your comedy and great attitude makes the wonderful locations even better. Anyone can make a video of traveling but not many people can do what you do bud. Wish you the best!!!
I truly appreciate all of this content. Thank you.
Through you including we viewers in your forays into the back country of Canada, you are showing not just Canadian viewers but viewers around the world our beautiful country, how wild and desolate some places are and the remains of where people dared to live and work, mind boggling. Thank you again Dustin for allowing us to join you.
Thank you for coming along.
As a young and, fancy free man many tears ago I decided to backpack canada east to west. I enjoyed my trip but, nothing prepared me for BC. So taken was I that it was plain to see I was finally 'home'. Spent a few yrs treeplanting which gave me a very good grounding of natural BC.
Still here, grey haired and, retired. This youngman is showing places no one else will, great job.
Beautiful as always! I can't believe a place that Amazing is not filled with people!
So incredible to see all of this, the Alpine, the lack of ice, the streams, the picnic area, and so much more coming, I know you are incredibly proud of the track you've laid out for us to see, the more remote you get, the more beauty of British Columbia there is! Enjoy your ride!
One Word...Wonderful!!! Thanks Dustin showing to the world our beautiful country that is Canada. 🥰
I'm not really one for the cold weather.. but I would love to visit Canada!! It's absolutely gorgeous and fully flourished! What a ride! 💐🏆💙
Living in the crowded UK, its hard to imagine places like this exist, with barely a handful of people living in such a vast area. It is so beautiful, albeit it a little scary! I love the expedition camper, I want one.
Such incredibly beautiful nature. I hope I can see Canada myself one day.
I grew up in Washington State. The beauty of North Central to NW Washington carries over in to British Columbia, where to me, there is a transition, and the two combine to form a combined beauty of the area. Then, the Province of British Columbia takes hold, and shows a beauty all its own. Thank you so much for sharing the beauty of British Columbia, and Canada as a whole. That cabin you found, with some work, might possibly be restored to something functional for some Summer or Wintertime usage.
Dustin.....tears flow yes!! My father would take us on adventures like you are on. We even had to build a bridge across a creek as a storm had washed out the old one. You are very dear to my heart for sharing this as I will never be able to do them myself with my health being bad. Thank you so much!!! ♥️♥️♥️
The boat launch brought tears to my eyes.
What amazing area and adventure ! Safe travels my friend 👍🏼
As a videographer myself I have to say no one does it as well a you Dustin. So many angles, and so many drone shots all while playing arborist at the same time. It all takes SO much time! Such fascinating and beautifully shot/edited content! 👏👏👏😀
Having been there, and standing on a large rock overlooking Chilko lake in the warm sun, is an almost spiritual feeling.. you can see why the first nations people chose that place...it's breathtakingly beautiful , and the fact there are no humans, just makes it a magical place.. I suggest if you ever go there, take a lot of pictures like dustin suggests, because there is no way to describe it in words. pics help, but it is definitely the "feel" of the place you will remember most... thanks Dustin for giving the world a glimpse....!
I moved to Australia nearly 20 years ago and your videos are really tempting me back to Beautiful British Columbia. ❤
I always love the effort and intentional angles on this channel. Great cinematography
Much appreciated, thank you
That water is so blue and pure, it's just stunning!
That water is beautiful. It's amazing that no matter how far out you go you still find signs of ppl.
As always. Awesome video! Just got done pulling an all nighter at work but had to stay awake for this video.
This is one of best travel documentaries on CZcams.
“With all the solo travelling….” 🤣🤣 omg, I spit out my tea!
30 odd years ago I back packed East to West across Canada, very quickly on arrival to BC i knew I'd found my forever home. The province has everything, many mountain ranges, fjords rivaling Norway, lakes & more lakes, desert & those beautiful rivers all filled with the best most diverse wildlife.forget anywhere else this is the place.
Since I found your channel, it’s my morning joy to watch & listen to your fabulous work. Absolutely love seeing all the natural beauty. Thank you
9:40. That drone shot is incredible.
I am so envious that you get to explore these amazing places with few people, but grateful you show them to us.
Thank you Dustin.
* OMG Dustin !!! Your camera angles, drone shots, and music selections are always edited together so perfectly but this time you've outdone yourself ! The sheer beauty of your surroundings is jaw dropping ! If everyone was able to spend some time where your at the world would be a better place . 👊😎👍
These videos are always too short:( You never get tired of looking at scenery like this.
Dustin-ation Adventure!
These videos are never long enough for me! Thank you for just your amazing spirit for adventure to do what you do, i cant watch enough! Thanks for explaining so much to us as you go! Im so proud of Canada for so many reasons and now loving even more of it through your vids.
I’ve been watching a couple of years now and I just got my wife watching. Lots of hard work goes into your videos, all the angle shots, music selection and time. Thanks for blessing us with your blessings there.
Mother Nature.Take out the weak and leave the strong,the rocks of course. Love the videos.♤'s.
This is adventure camping perfection. Keep going!
Thanks again brother 🙏
Another great adventure, thanks for the invite
Oh by the way,,,,this looks nothing like Texas
Wow! What beautiful country. Thanks so much for taking us along on this adventure.
There is no explaining how much I love your videos. ❤
No words are adequate to describe just how outstandingly beautiful this is. Thank you Dustin.
Thank you so much for all the hard work and thoughtfulness you put into bringing your viewers high quality, beautiful, interesting and entertaining videos. I think they are the best on CZcams.
I appreciate that a lot, thank you so much.
Its just so nice to see virgin ground. Completly untouched by man.
Just nature
I absolutely love this video. My kind of adventure. Beautiful land and no people.
I used to work for the forest service and the places you show with the forest and the lakes or rivers brings back memories. Wish I could travel to those places but I will just wait for you to show them. Thank you for showing us the beautiful places.
Perfect Rig for the Adventure!
Cummins is reliabe and mechanic friendly especially with a standard transmission.
Can't wait for next week's episode!
Amazing country and wilderness. You probably feel as though there is no one else within miles of you right out there. Take care and look forward to more adventures!
Im glad the camper truck is working out so great for you. Looks like alot of fun
What an amazing trek. Words fail me as to how beautiful our province is, and how lucky those of us who live in the middle of it, and get to explore it are
This is defiantly God's country. You really are passionate about the great outdoors. My husband and I love photography, and these are beautiful places you are taking us. Thank you.
Beautiful country. I’m thinking it may be a good idea to include a set of oars in your boat in case the motor is suddenly unavailable. Great videos.
Idk why but whenever i watch your vids i can't help but feel nostalgic even tho I haven't yet left home once.
Just oh my god…..thanks for taking us along virtually and for making it on our bucket list point…cheers all the way!!!
Sometimes places are so fantastically beautiful there's no words to adequately describe them. This video was just full of those. You've given me goals!
Simply beautiful country presented by a pro. Adjectives I can think of don't do it justice.
Thank you very much.
As soon as you have uploaded your video, we stop what we are doing and watch your awesome footage. Sending a huge hello from Australia
Absolutely breathing taking! Thank you so much for your passion for adventure and taking us along. Kudos to the Rig for beasting through.
Wow, wow, wow! My new no.1 place to see next summer. Thank you Dustin. So incredibly beautiful.
I really appreciate all the great music you put in to enjoy along with the amazing scenery! i've enjoyed hearing new artists, thank you for your thoughtful selections! Happy Travels!
4:20 they were looking for that sweet sweet isolation… 😉👍
Absolutely beautiful country, thanks Dustin, for taking us along
Another amazing Saturday and this episode is the cherry on top. Great work
Amazing as always Dustin! You are my dirty little pleasure on Saturday mornings, looking forward to more!
The scenery, that crystal-clear water ... absolutely breathtaking! I know your new rig will take you (and us!) where you plan on going. I'm just thankful you're taking us on this journey. ❤
So good always I love it totally crying A👍👍
I absolutely love this episode!! My favourite videos of yours are the northern BC ones. Absolutely gorgeous country! Hubby and I are planning a trip up north for next year (We live just outside of Vancouver) and you keep giving us ideas of places to check out! Although we won’t go anywhere near as remote as you do lol
You should go remote. You’ll love it. :)
Simply breathtaking. Thank you, Dustin.
One of your best videos ever. So incredibly gorgeous.
I got a kick from your excited little giggle after you said, " I think it's going to make it!" about the rig. 😉
Jeeeeeeezus. That opening scene is far and away one of your best establishing shots I have seen. Bravo!
What fantastic video Dustin. The views are amazing. Glad to see the rig is doing so well. Your going to give all those overland truck builders nightmares, that your rig will is just as good or better. 😂😂 👍👍👍👍👍🍻
Chilko Lake and the Taseko are just breath-taking. Home sweet home my friend. Thanks for sharing
The views you've shared with us of the mountain areas are just breathtakingly beautiful. A lot of folks including myself may never have the opportunity to see these sites first hand. Your camera work and drone are 1st class. Keep up the astounding work.
Wow !!!That is amazing! Add this place to my bucket list! Thanks for showing us all this natural beauty!
Showing me parts of the province I have never seen. Beautiful British Columbia!!
Those views are breathtaking and this episode makes me want to get in my truck and go exploring. Your new rig and the adventures that are happening are super exciting. I can't wait to see where you get to with it. Thanks for sharing, as always :)
Coffee in hand ☕ the wife & I really enjoyed this travel time. You talked about tears. When you end your video that's when we have tears. Safe travels our friend. 😊
Best episode yet. Would pay to be able to tag along on adventures like this. Destination outfitters. Let’s whip it!!
Absolutely stunning Dustin! The Chilcotin has amazing sights! Thanks!
My face in a wide grin the entire video. Stunning and so fun. Thanks for taking me along. So wonderful to see this wild part of BC from my very tame perch on Vancouver Island😻
Oh yes…this was well worth the investment time of the build… This place is absolutely gorgeous thank you for bringing me with you.
Another great view of this wonderous Province, thank's, lovin' it.
Beautiful country, I don’t get to enjoy the energy one feels when your standing there in person but thanks you Dustin for sharing.
