I am a content creator who helps people build the confidence to explore nature and become the best version of themselves through outdoor adventures. I'm also an OAF, and that means more than just a big awkward person. When you acknowledge your insignificance and ignorance (i.e. that you are an OAF) next to nature, you paradoxically become open to being taught by nature. "The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool" ~ Shakespeare

Dave is back, and this time we go deeper. We both share stories of times that we've gone further than a simple hike, and how that has impacted us in our extended lives. In 2015, Dave and others joined me as we attempted to climb Mount Assiniboine (I had climbed it twice previously), and when it comes up in our conversation we both explore what we learned from that trip.

How to predict the weather (NO PHONE!) using simple observations

Most people take weather forecasts for granted. We can get instant information by checking our trusted weather apps, and even though they aren't perfect, they are quite helpful. But sometimes, especially if you don't live by your phone, knowing how to observe weather patterns can be just as accurate, and in some case even more accurate that an app is.

Only poem I still remember from my school days
😇💯🫶🏾🤠✨👌🏾
One of my favorite poem😭🖤
Waoooooooooo my favourite ❤I want to visiting this woods but I can't 😭 one of my most favourite 😍
I do like the scene, however i would like to see one more light over your left shoulder A hair light perhaps if you open the door to justify the light. I am a newbee, just graduated 2 year digital film production program sault college.
Great feedback. Much appreciated!
@@OutrightAdventureFilms New Subscriber as well. I hope thing go well for your production.
👍
Love it!
Stunning!
yeah - welp
@@Kimobubby Here we are.
looking forward to that experience! (nice soundtrack ;-) )
I learned this beautiful poem from my Literature class at university❤
One of my favourite poems..this video showed this cold winter landscape and the lone traveller stopping briefly in this brief moment. But I really could do without the church choir...what are they doing there. The whole point of the poem is that the man is alone on this journey. What next...brass band and drums for " The listeners". The whole point is the stillness and silence..B.

New subscriber. Fantastic content! Thank you. Here in New Orleans, the most interesting wood I've found for walking sticks in crate myrtle, a hard wood. While the wood twists, is starkly white, and has interesting features, it doesn't compare to diamond willow. Going to purchase some DW staves to give this a try and just bought the Flextool Carvin Jack. It's hard to find staves that are mostly straight. After major storms is when I find what I'm looking for. Getting that bark off has been a real challenge. Hours with a micro-plane are what I've used. A draw plane is too aggressive. What you just shared should make this vastly easier.

A truly wonderful rendition....so very evocative. Like others here I doubted whether the somewhat sparse woodlands in the video would work but the rider and horse, the setting, the unbelievable music and singing and your recitation of those magical lines combined left me speechless. Thank you....
@@philipdee1415 Thank you!
A brilliant rendition......so moving....thank you
This guy s recitation is beyond my imagination
Thank you 4what u do n ur hard work
Im not a real carver 😂😂 i have kid sized hands n as i watch u use that handy tool, contemplating justifying getting one, i realized that unfortunately its yet another "ment for the job" tool that wont work for me, i think its more i have some hinky catch in my wrists n short fingers n small hands make it pert near impossible for me to adjust my grip n hold... BUTTTTTT omg that tool would b handy 4why im here today. Unconventional tools i use: chainsaw chain sharpener (hand held), some tapered pick that has mild file texture, 2 small rounded rough files ment for auto body work n a knife. The struggle im hitting is mid diamond i have a branch nub i want to keep, but i cant get behind it n the pick end (only thing that fits) is too pokey, sure i can screw it up n learn n do better next time, but i really like this specific stick n im not confident enough yet to try my knife since the last time i tried this exact thing, i didnt have my pressure n angle right n off the nub went, but whatever the issue was it was so small it was a fine line between screw up n sucess n partially accidental slipping. So all that in mind, any suggestions of unconventional tools that may do what I need? Anyones suggestions would b appreciated n it doesn't have 2b the proper tool for the job, just has to get the job done. I will add, before aquiring things that work better like the chain sharpener, i used a pocket knife, a dental pick n fingernail file. I dont shy from tools that make it tedious, i actually find tedious tinkering soothing *i am working with dry catchy wood*
Thank you for #4 n I would like to add taking from others experiences, if ur in a public location, don't full harvest, it may b easier to get to cos it's easier to find, but leave some for others to discover, especially for those who's only nature experience is that trip to the lake or up north camping trip once a year, it gives an experience for a parent n child share or a country boy to teach a city girl n impress her... also leaving it when it's easy to get to leaves it for those who may not b able to hike back n find more such as disabled folks or a grandparent teaching their grandkids. I was heartbroke when I went to where I found my 1st stick, I go there frequently n always admire that specific diamond willow patch, some inconsiderate human cut it all, I'm sure to make sticks to sell, not only is that harsh to the diamond willow (they broke off alot of it instead of cutting) but now noone can enjoy it😢 at least the base is still there for new growth🤞 I harvest 1stick out of 5-10 groups a time,per location if it's more than 1 at a location, there needs to be a minimum of 7groups. I'm extra about it cos others aren't.
My nephew and I were cleaning out some brush at my sister's place and came across a little tree with vine wrapped around it. I'm making a walking stick out of it. Being fresh cut it's green. Don't know what species it is but the bark hard and no way to trim it off with a knife. I took a brass wire brush to it and that worked pretty good but I found out you can take off more than just the bark. Anyway, it's looking pretty good. I'm just getting into doing a little wood carving and wood working. Good video, thanks for the information. I need to get some good carving knives. Had no idea what to get.
Great idea to use the beautiful Whitacre music as background to your film. It provides such a feeling of longing and melancholy, as well as peace and silence. Your scenery is not as I had envisioned--I had imagined deep, dark New England woods--but the film definitely captures the longing for rest and sleep along with not being able to rest because of duties one must accomplish--along with how lonely that can be.
Unfortunately there are no deep and dark woods near where I live. Further west there are more, but I don’t know enough of the ranchers that live there. I’d love to reshoot the video in a more wooded area some day.
The curved blade reminds me of a hoof knife.
i wanne see it someday😱 0:20
Thank you for sharing this awesome tutorial, I learned so much! What did you use for an epoxy finish?
Stunning! Great music to go with it!
Lovely, dark and deep
Wasy wind and downy flake Easy wind and falling snow
The thing keeping me behind is the land I live in the Mojave Desert and not the pretty parts just the part where there is only bushes that's it bushes and heat and so there's not much to do out here and I can't drive yet so I can't drive to the good parts I normally only go because my girlfriend like to collect bones and there alot of bones around the shrubbery and so I'll go out there with her but other than that it's very hard to go and I don't like working out but I do like walking it's just hard to get up and go I feel like an arrow that has had the fletching ripped off without a destination or purpose I have no idea what I am to do out there 🥲
You’re lucky to live where you live. There are times here in Canada where no one goes outside because of the cold. I’d love to live somewhere that is hot. Keep trying. Developing a relationship with the outdoors takes patience.
@@OutrightAdventureFilms thank you brother
YT seems to recomment smaller channels now... I like.
"First set your mind" is a mantra I use, after that you just stick to the old stalwart...' 'The job is the job...' and don't quit til it's done.🤘😆
Mine is the 6 month winter during which no outdoors activity is enjoyable at all. So excited for spring to come
I hear you. I definitely have had to figure out how to force myself outside in winter.
@@OutrightAdventureFilms A solid video idea right there
@@peps7724 lol that one will have to wait until next winter, but I like it!
Good video. Completely worthless to me though. I'm not criticizing, just saying. Good luck with your channel.
Good comment. Completely worthless to me though. I'm not criticizing, just saying. Good luck with your UA-cam comments.
Oh, I thought OAF meant Outright Adventure Fan.
It can also be that. :)
No McDonalds, No starbucks...99% of Americans wont go then.
LOVE this video!
In the 'accessories' department: invest in one of those GoPro stick thingies... it will make the image mych more enjoyable for us viewers (less in your face, less wobble) ;-) Nice goal you have there, hope to see more of you! Good luck
Nice video! I like that its hopeful but also personal. Looking forward to more of your stuff
Woah. Nathan you are more than busy on youtube.
