Winter Car Camping on a Forestry Service Road (FSR)
Which model Stryker do you have and size? I had the pro 420 with the new 30hp mercury. It was almost too fast with only two people on board but was awesome having the power when I went on a couple day trip with 3 guys on board and fully loaded with gear. I really liked the boat but decided wasn’t going to fold it up so I bought a 4.6 metre Highfield rib.
Hey there as a fellow Stryker mission specialist let me hip you to an essential piece of kit. The Anchor Buddy. No more wading/ swimming out to get the boat. Also I highly recommend running up the Harrison River from Kilby into the Harrison lake to Rainbow Falls. Very scenic adventure for filming. Cheers.
Is this set up lighter than a tent? Looks fun to do actually. And you can ditch the tarp if there’s no rain.
Very good content and execellent video quality!
Thanks so much for watching!
first set of prints were too close together for deer. Coyote maybe. Second set (webbed) were geese or swans maybe.
Thank you!
I am new to fishing. And I am planning to go to capilano river to try coho fishing this weekend. I have some questions! Is this currently a good season to do coho fishing? What is the best time of the day? And any recommendations for spots in the river?
Thanks for watching! I haven’t had chance to fish the capilano yet this year, so I can’t say if it’s a good season or not unfortunately. I fished it at first light last year and had some success, so I’d try that. For spots, I’d start just below the hatchery at cable pool. Always check the river level before you go though, as capilano is dam controlled and the river can rise unexpectedly.
Hi. Great way to spend a lovely morning. I'd like to try this as well. Were those public piers that launched from and stopped at for lunch? If so, where are they located?
Thanks for watching! Yes, they are both public docks. I launched at Cates Park in North Vancouver and stopped for lunch at Twin Islands Provincial Park.
@@cedarcabinsociety Thanks. I thought I recognized Cates Park. But I havent stopped at that island before. I'm looking forward to trying it.
Cable pool be doing that, it holds some big fish. But they are extremely picky. So it’s a hit or miss. Further down river at the mouth of the capilano where the river spills into the ocean. I find it much better. I got a 13 pound coho. Awesome video by the way 👍🏼
Definitely agree! I’ve had much better luck at the mouth of the Cap too. Hoping to get back out again shortly. Tight lines!
beautiful video man. stunning area to enjoy a camping trip. i really enjoyed the background info on the area.
Awesome looking inflatable how durable would you say the seams are? Welded or glued? Also is the bottom pretty durable against rocks and gravel?
Thanks for watching! I believe the seems are glued but I’m not 100% sure on that. It’s a great little inflatable for calm waters and sandy beaches but I wouldn’t trust it in anything more than that. I’ve since upgraded to a more rugged and versatile inflatable boat by a local company called Stryker, so I’m getting the Paddleski ready to sell.
@@cedarcabinsociety Sounds good I’ve been doing some research on another brand called True Kit they’re Tactician Model looks like a good inflatable 😎🍻
@@user-ktm890rider I’ve heard of that brand but not that model. I’ll have to check it out!
For some reason, those ducks bobbing in the waves made me really happy.
Also, thanks for being honest about the food. It can be hard to trust some folks when everything is the best ever.
No problem at all! The dehydrated meals are by no means cheap, so I try to give folks as much info as I can to help before they buy.
Do you ever just feel too tired to camp? I love being outside for as long as possible. The labor involved, though, dissuades me from doing it more often.
Thanks so much for watching! I definitely get tired of doing the back to back remote camping trips. I don’t currently have anywhere to store a trailer, so I have to build and break the boat down before and after every trip, which can be very taxing. I love doing these trips though, so it always keeps me coming back for more.
Really beautiful all around.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.
Great video! Curious if I need to make a camping reservation for summit camping ?
Thanks for watching! I’m actually not sure if you need a reservation for summit camping but my best guess is yes.
This was cool!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Going on a day trip this weekend with Powell River Kayaks and wanted to get a glimpse of what to expect. So excited!
It’s an incredible area! You won’t regret it
I don't see how setting up a tarp above a bivvy will reduce condensation inside the bivvy
Because the head of the bivy can remain open and unzipped while still being protected from inclement weather
what boat are you using?
Sea Eagle Paddleski 437
@@cedarcabinsociety that’s really cool! thank you!
No worries!
Your outdoor camping content is just as good as some huge channels I follow. Well done keep it up
Wow thanks so much! That’s made my day 🙌🏻 Great to have you with us.
Did you accidentally smack the dog with the paddle? Lol you came so close as doggy was swimming directly in the line of fire. That must be one of the happiest dogs in the world, having outdoor adventures with dad. 🐕💚
Hahah I’ve almost done that a few times with the paddle 🤦♂️😅 I certainly like to think she’s the happiest dog in the world. It makes it all worth while seeing her ripping around the bush and enjoying life. Thanks again for watching!
They’re called Salmon Berries
Thanks for letting me know! I didn’t know that.
@@cedarcabinsociety Np. Be careful when you eat them. They’re not like raspberries, the seeds are hard as stone. Can easily break a tooth!
What happened with the Sea Eagle Paddle Ski?...Did U not like it? & if U like the Stryker better, can U tell us why? Thanks, as I'm currently shopping for an Inflatable Kayak...😊
Hey - thanks for watching! I really love my paddleski as a solo boat for calm waters/lakes, as I think this is where it performs at its best. Unfortunately, since I purchased it, my needs have changed a lot and I now need more space to bring my dog, gf and gear along on adventures. I also like to salmon fish locally using heavier down-riggers that the paddleski can’t support, so having a more stable and rugged boat that handles ocean swell better gives me more peace of mind. Regarding the paddling experience, it’s doable for short distances (<5km) but personally I wouldn’t use it without an outboard or trolling motor, as it can be quite challenging to handle when the wind kicks up. I think it works best with a combo of both to cover distance on the motor and get in shallow using the paddle.
Hey! I stumbled across your videos which are awesome (subbed by the way) and you have me really interested in the Paddleski. I'm also based in Vancouver and would be taking it out around Indian Arm. I noticed in recent vids you aren't taking it out as much anymore. Wondering how your experience of using it purely in paddling mode for longer distances has been or are you always using it with a motor?
Hey - thank you, I really appreciate that. Great to have you onboard. I can definitely help on the paddleski front.

Wow, you nailed the feels man! I have done this many times in washington state, so similar terrain. I'd take by awesome doggo out into the boat and explore the coastal mountains and forests, using the row boat to traverse. Being ALL ALONE, just me, a bearded bloke with a row boat, myself, my goofy silly dog, and nature. Sadly I lost the best friend I ever had. Camping isn't the same without that good ol pupper. This vid brought back good memories. I miss my dog :-(
Cheers, glad you enjoyed it. We’re so spoiled for epic terrain up here in the PNW and awesome to hear about your row boat adventures with your doggo. I’m really sorry your pups not with you anymore. I know I’ll be an absolute mess when that day comes. Very happy to hear its bringing back good memories though and great to have you onboard.
Amazing video as always! It looks so peaceful 😍
Thank you 🙌🏻
Wow, a Tuesday upload lol thanks for sharing Chris it took 17 minutes out of my work day 😂 much appreciated lol
Hahaha one of these days I’ll get consistent with my uploads lol. I’d better make it longer next time if we’re on company time 🤣
Stellar visuals and production value as always, champ. And Murph! She’s so big!
Cheers mate! That means a lot. Thanks so much for watching as always. We need to get you out here for one of these trips!
Gorgeous!
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏻
Wonderful adventure! Thanks for sharing. :) :)
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the land acknowledgement at the beginning.
No worries - thanks for watching!
I lost my fly box at the cable pool and didn't figure out how to reach this area. It must have ended up there somewhere eventually or kept going. I was heart broken that day
Ah that sucks! Sorry to hear that. I’m sure it will make someone very happy wherever it showed up next.
Setting up a bivy underneath a tarp is a unique choice. Why not just go with a lightweight tent?
Personal preference mainly. It’s nice to mix it up from time to time.
Not unique at all... best of both worlds, plus if it's raining, you can set up camp underneath the tarp. Depends on what type of experience you're looking for...
Hi mate, great video, what are you using to keep your rod in that position?
Cheers bud, thanks for watching! The rod is attached to a rod holder accessory made by the board’s manufacturer (iRocker). I purchased it directly through their website.
Bro is NOT Alexander
Thanks for watching!
Can you tell us about your boat setup? size, motor, etc?
Thanks for watching, Bill! Yep for sure. The boat is a Stryker LX420. It’s a 14ft roll up inflatable boat with aluminum floor boards. The outboard is a Mercury 6HP short shaft. A full boat setup video will be up on the channel soon.
Another beautiful video from your channel. I love how you change perspective with the big views from the drone and the up-close shots of the plants and the creatures. The underwater angle of your doggo swimming made me smile.
Thanks so much, Lisa! Really glad you enjoyed it. I’m still working on my drone filming skills but it’s been a lot of fun so far. I couldn’t resist putting in the underwater shot of Murphy swimming haha 🤣
Great video Chris. Those are some unbelievable spots. The dip by the waterfall would be so relaxing and seeing Murphy play in the water is priceless. Thanks for sharing as usual.
Cheers, Chris! Glad you enjoyed it. Finding that hidden waterfall and swimming with Murphy was definitely the highlight for us. It felt so great to get off the grid and put the world on pause for a few days. I also just got back from another solo boat camping trip last night, so they’ll be plenty more content on the way shortly.
Really good sitting in my camp chair thinking what a fabulous place your video is depicting Ken Shaw
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
Hey Chris! Thanks for sharing! I fish for bass with my Paddleski 437. I haven't been out yet this year, our bass season doesn't start until the end of June. My boat is a 2022 model with a 6HP Suzuki. I had it out in 6-7 waves by accident last year and it performed like a champ. I came out of some secluded channels and the wind had picked up out on the big water. I noticed you carry a lot of gear as I do. Just a little suggestion to help keep paddles, boat hooks etc out of the way - I bought a set of "paddle keepers" on Amazon for a standard inflatable kayak. I have the Explorer 380 as well. They're basically a velcro strap with a snap fastener on one end. String a safety line down the side of your boat, attach the paddle keepers and you can hang any of your paddles etc outboard where you won't be tripping over them. They work great and they're not expensive. I hope that helps solve some space issues. 🛶🛶
Hey Eric! Thanks so much for watching and for reaching out. It’s great to meet another paddleski owner! I still haven’t come across anyone up here in BC yet. Thanks for the recommendation about the paddle keepers. I’ll definitely have a look into those because space is certainly at a premium right now 😅 I’m still trying to find a way to fit my dog (Murphy) on it too for quick overnight trips but that’s still a work in progress. I’m hoping to get back out on it shortly to give it another crack. Tight lines for bass season! Cheers, Chris
Are you using a manual down rigger? What type is it? Also, does it work well with the paddle ski? I m debating if i should get one. Not sure if it will be too heavy when you mount it. If it is a scotty down rigger, did you add a mount in the back? Also, can you do a video on how you mount the fish finder? Thanks
Thanks for watching! I’m using the lake troller downrigger from Scotty. I’ve tested it a few times and it works great with a 4lb ball. It’s mounted on a Scotty’s 241 base mount that it snaps into, so no extra parts needed. The Garmin fish finder is mounted on a Scotty universal base mount and also attached using the Scotty 241 base. Hope that helps!
Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. sub & 👍4

Hi, great video, I thoroughly enjoyed the frog chorus,,, Can you tell me is your mattress the standard size or the large one. I ask because i just bought this same O.R Helium bivy bag and i already have the Neo air XTherrn in the large size and wondered if it may be a bit too big. Thanks
Hey! Thanks so much for watching. I really appreciate the kind comment. Of course! My air mattress is the Xtherm Max in the large size. It will fit inside the OR Helium but it doesn’t leave a lot of room to spare. There’s enough space inside to close both the bug net and the waterproof hood zips but the mattress pretty much fills all the floor area of the bivy. Hope that helps and fire away if you’ve got any other questions.
Great to see that your surgery was a success . You seem to be moving around quite well. Epic drone footage , absolutely beautiful scenery.
Hey Carol! Great to hear from you and hope you’re doing well. The knees definitely on the mend now thankfully! Looking forward to lots of BC adventures this summer! Have you got any exciting trips planned?
