Outdoor Life On The Rock
Canada
Приєднався 23 кві 2023
Welcome to Outdoor Life on The Rock. On this channel you’ll find videos of my explorations and outdoor life in Newfoundland.
I’m exploring alternative ways of living and thinking. I want to inspire you to dream bigger, challenge yourself, and pursue your passions. To live your life in a way that fulfills and enriches your spirit.
Being outside provides benefits beyond measure for our health and well being. I feel that the modern world has led us to great disconnections with ourselves, our families and the earth. I hope to change this cycle through sharing my love of the great outdoors, and providing space for others to do the same. I want to share the message of how much mindful movement matters, both physical and mental.
My name is Alicia. I am a Mom and a creative.
I am also a 200Hr Certified Yoga Teacher, and Veterinary Technician.

Remote Camping Doesn’t Always Go As Planned
This video Jared and I are finally off work together. The entire family gets out for a camping trip, one that doesn’t turn out like I had planned.
Remote camping doesn’t work out every time. We had to adjust our plans, adapt to our surroundings, and find what works.
Either way we found time to step out of our comfort zone, and enjoy the outdoors.
Thanks for watching. If you enjoyed this video please don't forget to comment, like and subscribe : )
Happy Exploring!

I've had to put the camera down for a while. Life threw me a curve ball, I took lots of time to reflect, and come to peace with recent events. In the process, I learned a lot, and I am happy to share again. I hope you enjoy this one. We found a couple beautiful spots here in Newfoundland to enjoy nature, and learn a bit more about ourselves. This is a good one to watch if you've experienced los...

My grandmother lived in St. Vincent's for many years and I spent many childhood days (often enshrouded in fog!) watching the whales long before the word was out and social media made it popular. We would often have the whole stretch of beach to ourselves and watched these gentle giants for hours at a time. Wonderful job of capturing the beauty and majesty of this area and event!
From various videos you can see how kids are growing and enjoying the great outdoors..I how last camping weekend was last week for overnight staying because mornings are damp getting breakfast lol we will still be taking road trips and lunches and little trips like last week we went grates cove. Great keep them coming
Yes they are growing way too fast 🥹 I love that I can go back and see it in the videos. It’s getting chillier at night, summer goes by too fast. Fires in the morning are nice when it’s damp, I do love fall camping too though!
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock I keep looking for your videos because I enjoy them very much..
Another great video, keep them coming!
Thank you 😊!
Awesome video , I’m thinking about this jeep and tent set up in the next year or 3 any tips and details would be great . Cheers you have a sweet family 😊🙏🖐️
Thank you 😊 I had most of the build done at Beast Off-road in Toronto, amazing shop and great people! If you have any specific questions send me an email, I’d be happy to answer them. Outdoorlifeontherock@gmail.com
In a capitalist society your worth is measured by how much money you make. Doing unpaid work as a SAHM isn't valued. I was a SAHM for 10 years. The first 6 years my husband, daughter, 2 dogs and I lived in a 700 square foot apartment in the Bronx. It was the absolute best time of my life being a SAHM. My daughter is now 18 years old, she is awesome and I wouldn't have changed a thing about how we raised her. Women are told a toxic cultural narrative that it is fine not to raise your own children full time. Hopefully this will change. In the meantime, it's important that the mothers that want to raise their children full time do not give into the pressure not to do so.
This 🙌 I’m so happy that you had that time with your daughter. I agree, they truly are the best years. Hopefully this will change, hopefully more moms will try if that’s what they want to do.
It's all about family Great video
Thank you ☺️
There's nothing wrong with becoming a full time Mom , my wife did it when our kids were little, and my daughter hasn't gone back to teaching since our granddaughter was born three years ago, I think she will when our granddaughter goes back to school. So I say good on you for being a MOM !! It's an awesome video but I have a question where is Sparks Cove because it looks like an awesome spot to camp. Hope you all have a great week.
Thank you 😊 ! I think it’s slowly becoming a bit more accepted, depends on what kind of work you’re in. It’s hard to pause in mine. I’d love to share it with you but I like to keep these places wild and beautiful for years to come. Sharing locations to the masses can disrupt this. Not everyone leaves it as they found it unfortunately. I will say that i spend hours looking at satellite views on google maps, that’s how I find places. Then I drive to them and hope to find something great, which doesn’t always pan out. Sometimes it does. That’s how I found sparks cove, I drove for 6 hours that day before I found it, 3 of it off road. When I drove out onto that beach it was THE best feeling, the journey is just as important as the destination! Happy Exploring 😊
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock I can accept that lol, especially people don't often leave it like they found it, I know here in central you're hard pressed not to find garbage in the woods. Thanks for the response I hope you have a great week.
I was looking for this because I knew I would like it and you had one coming soon lol
another wonderful video!
Thank you 😊
Great video and editing...love the Jeep!
Thank you 😊!
another great one!
22:32 So felt
Thank you ☺️ It’s a humbling moment when you feel that shift, something I’m enjoying.
Great video......nature can help with all things. 👍👍
Thank you 😊
Great video 🙏
Thank you 😊
Great video, I really love the color. May I ask what device do you use to film this video?
Thank you 😊 I’m still learning a lot, but loving the process of learning it all. I started with a Nikon Z30, and I use my iPhone for back up. Hoping to get a drone soon!
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock Amazing. Thank you! Looking forward to seeing your video with drone!
Just watched your video where you were down to bonavista to watch the puffins and you missed us by a week l. We were down that way week before ..you have some good advice and knowledge to give us because yes sometimes I find as we age we have to change gears to so many situations..Thsnks to bad we missed opportunity to meet in person but we just may someday.. love the video keep them coming. By the way the pole line trail where th bugs were bad was that up around clarenville
Thank you 😊 yes I’m sure we’ll bump into you somewhere down the road! The pole line was just before clarenville, closer to Goobies.
Love the videos. Chance cove is also one of our family's favorite hiking trails.
Thank you. 😊 Yes it’s beautiful, I wish we had time to do it that day!
Love your vids, keep them coming
Thank you ! 😊
Wow ❤❤ beautiful!!!
Thank you !
Hello. I’m a new subscriber and I’m loving the videos. As a fellow Newfoundlander I recognize exactly where you were in this video. I’m sure your videos will also give me ideas where to explore myself. Maybe I’ll even run into you folks one day. I look forward to future videos. Time to binge the others. Take care!
Thank you ☺️ ! Hopefully we run into you someday, happy exploring!
Wowzers!!!! I live in Newfoundland, and this video showed in my suggestions! Your video is beyond beautiful! Your kids are so lucky to have great parents like yourself, they will have amazing memories!!!!
Thank you ☺️ !!
da ya really think ppl give a shit??
I think some people sure do. And if you don’t, that’s ok, life would be pretty boring if we all enjoyed the exact same things.
Your video just showed up in my recommended videos list and wasn't long before I was hitting the subscribe button, and not much longer before I was turning on the notifications bell. AWESOME video Start to Finish, I've driven through St. Vincent's a few times but have never caught the whales YET , I'm sure I'll be there again. Great message within your video, especially building a relationship with your children. Mine (4) have all grown up and created a successful life, now it's my turn to be there as a grandparent, luckily she lives close. The best sunsets are always over the water that was indeed a spectacular one. Hope you have an awesome Week.
Thank you so much! 😊 I’m so glad you enjoyed it, I hope you get to see the whales there on your next visit. I can imagine being a grandparent is just as amazing, if not more! Enjoy your summer.
Same, it popped up in my feed as well. Awesome video from beginning to end. I feel bad that I didn’t do these things with my daughter. 18 summers really puts things into perspective. Thanks for sharing!
Great Video ! Thank you for sharing, I have the same Jeep, what brand of Roof Rack and Tent do you have please ? I'm looking for one and can't decide on a style of tent.
Thank you 😊! I found my roof rack on marketplace luckily, it’s AEV. Similar to rhinorack style. I believe it was discontinued but I’m not positive. Our RTT is a Freespirit Recreation Odyssey, which I’ve been pretty happy with. Though I would have gotten a different style from them possibly. It’s held up so well though!
Omg this is amazing!!! Just found your channel ❤✌️🇨🇦 We have a channel about our off grid journey in Northern Ontario. Glad to meet you! I was in NFLD many many years ago when the Kaplan were spawning. What a magical experience!
Thank you! Amazing, we will check your channel out :) Finley and I are actually from Ontario! ❤️ The more North the better it was for us back then! Then we found Newfoundland 🥰
@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock so incredible. I want to get back to NFLD someday and Jason has never been. We had a really fun East Coast roadtrip but only made it as far as Nova Scotia this time. I will watch your videos as I have time. ✌️🇨🇦
It’s capelin not Kaplan.
@shawncolbourne6355 thank you. I wasn't really sure on the spelling!
Omg this is amazing!!! Just found your channel ❤✌️🇨🇦 We have a channel about our off grid journey in Northern Ontario. Glad to meet you! I was in NFLD many many years ago when the Kaplan were spawning. What a magical experience!
Went back and watched your last video of whale watching again and we will be spending a night or two there this summer it looks awesome..your videos look so relaxing and makes you get the get up and out there to enjoy time we have here on the earth .looking forward to your next video
Thank you 😊 so nice to hear, and you’ll love it there !
Thanks for sharing. How is the whale season there, what’s the best time to visit for the purpose of whale watching?
Typically the warmer summer months of July and August are the most active for whale sightings. Though you can see whales in Newfoundland between the months of May and October! If you have a short window to visit I’d recommend July :)
Absolutely beautiful, I hope to get there someday
Let me know if you do, I’ll show you around :) !
Great work saw you all down there
Come say hi next time :)
👍
Wow another amazing video and the whales was awesome . We went to bonavista and watched some but nothing like that for sure..I love watching your sites and find it so relaxing to see you guys having so much fun.. we are planing to go out that way soon to that area around ferryland and now I know I know where to camp lol ..keep them coming love them you sure know how to pick out great sites to camp
Thank you ! There were so many great places to camp around there. But a lot of them were very close to cliffs, not good for a toddler. You’ll find some great spots I’m sure :)
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock thank you I was thinking same thing with kids for sure..just two old fogies the wife and me lol
another great video, keep them coming!
Thank you 😊
Great video. We was there me and Andrea same day as you was and by the look we was parked close to your Jeep. I recognized your husband when I was reviewing my footage lololo Look like we was 50 feet beside you. Pat
Haha! We were the first to park there, then came back and our vehicle was surrounded lol What a great day it was 😀
Great to see a new video i just got back from gander hope to see more videos
Thank you! 😊
We were up there the weekend on quad for a ride . They have part of the roadway up changed a bit you don’t have to go down over that steep hill. Had a great day
Nice :) Yes we love it there, need to explore that area some more !
Just went back and watched over one of your videos and you guys sure pick some nice places to camp ..we were gone Nova Scotia for three weeks so now we can’t wait to go on a camping road trip .we are planning to go out to around whitbourne and drive to ferryland and on to St. John’s never down that route before. Keep making those videos
Amazing, I hope you have a great trip! I’m working on editing one now, I’m back to work though so it will take me a little longer than usual to post it. Soon though!
Some of the songs are beautify in your videos. Don’t u think that some often towers song sound like Leonard cohen
Great clip video of what you’re doing to help people out. And now that your jeep is fixed hope to see some more great videos. Thanks
We’ll have a new one up soon, we had an amazing adventure this weekend !
Sorry to hear you had some trouble with keep. We know what’s that about went to keels and hitch start to break loose so had to go clarenville to get parts. Great video and seems nothing changed you guys still enjoyed and had a great time
Thank you, yes we sure made the best of it 😊 !
I've been to that spot. A piece of heaven for sure, just maybe not when the mosquitoes are in full bloom! 👍👍
😊 amazing ! Yes the bugs will be out in full force now.
Just came across video I must have missed but just finished watching and enjoyed thanks
Did you do a video on may long weekend last week yet or did I miss it lol
We did! It was a great weekend. Still working on editing that one though, it will be up soon I hope :) Maybe with some Ten Towers !
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock ten towers for sure Still listen to them sometimes. Lol
Are you on messenger because sometimes it hard to put a comment in here on where we follow you
I’m on Instagram @aliciaontherock
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock ok if I need to put in a comment this would be the right place then I guess .. thanks
Sorry for your loss. You made a beautiful video. Pat
Thank you ❤️
Did you play the songs by ten towers. Get you if my mind. And the one in the fall. They have so nice music and I might hear more if these on your videos this summer ah? lol ok glad I tuned in on them
I did not yet, I will though! Thanks for reminding me, I’m listening to one now :) yes there will probably be more in the our videos !
@@OutdoorLifeOnTheRock differently not the weekend people were looking for this weekend especially for camping outside oh well oh we will to hope on sunny more days ahead to come . I think this will be our stay home long weekend lol
@@geraldyetman-hi2yl no it’s not the weather we were hoping for, but that’s ok, we’ll just have to bundle up a bit more !
Thank you very much for telling me the song by ten towers and now I am playing few more if then too. I like them very much and will be playing it more often ..we must have same taste for music on thus on lol thank you very much
Alice when you were getting ready to make dumplings and building camp fire you had an awesome song on I I would love to know the name of it to play over it says I think always in your hand but it must be different that what I came up with so if you could drop. A line and say the name of the song. Thsnks
I love that song too. It’s called In our hands, by Ten Towers. I get most of my music for videos off of Epidemic sound.
Where was that place you did your video too it looked awesome
It was near the east coast trail head in Calvert, up Northside rd.
Sorry that should read that I lost my dad my two brothers and sister since mom passed on
Do you be on messenger because at times it’s hard to get comment in on your videos
So sorry to the the passing of your mom cause I know how it is because I had hold of my moms hand when she passed on and I can feel or since it in your voice and since that I listen to my dad and two brothers and my sister but life has a way of moving but difficult at times ..this is one awesome video and so glad that you shared it with us ..we were out on two outings this year to keels and to happy adventures down by Eastport and injoyed it much ..if you get chance go to keels and camp on the cliff to your right going in and listen all night ti the beach ricks rolling back and forth all night long. Awesome
Thank you ❤️ I’m sorry for your loss as well, we will have to check out keels ! It’s of ideas for this summer, can wait to get out more :)
