Be safe my snow junkie. It a great time to be out Forest. Love your judgement ! Be safe and have a great spring. Can’t wait for some summer heat. ! Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels
Not exactly like you can say, Rocco you edit this. I love your content you take me to the most beautiful places. Do as and when you look happy that is the best thing. Thank you.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw there was a new FF video. If and when you’re ready to set up your Patreon again, I’ll be there just to show my appreciation for taking us along for the ride and I love Rocko time! It makes my heart warm to see you and our girl Rocco are doing well.❤❤❤
FORESTY!!! Welcome back!!! We were not sure if we were going to see you again or not. Some of us were REALLY worried that you had given up on UA-cam completely and might never come back. It is such a relief to see your smiling face again. Now, please feel free to take time off whenever you need it. Don't feel obligated to produce videos, except on YOUR schedule! Love you, man!
It’s so impressive that you closed down your Patreon page because you didn’t feel you were giving value for money! It really speaks to your integrity and incredible work ethic, as well as your self awareness regarding your limitations, further marking you as a truly genuine person. It’s really no wonder that this is fast becoming my favourite channel on UA-cam.
Foresty throws the tennis ball towards the camera, Rocko (as dogs sometimes do) chases after the bouncing ball and catches it. Normal right? However, re-watch that part and you will see Rocko stop after catching the ball and look directly at the camera so we can see at home she has secured the ball lol.
Dude I really hope that you know that your videos bring so much viewing pleasure to someone who lives halfway around the world from you. Drone footage is amazing as always
I was one of your Patreon supporters and I never completely understood what issues you were having and, not being a content creator, I don't understand the demands Patreon puts on you. But I'm so glad you are still doing videos and, hopefully, enjoying your life again. Be well.
Your mountaineering makes you a national treasure, Foresty, but for me, the how of what you do (the customized van home with DIY tiny wood burning stove projects; breakdowns and the solutions; the gourmet cooking in a foot square kitchen; life with Rocko et al.) is more fascinating. LOVE your videos. Greetings from The Canadian Prairies
I didn't expect the E-bike as a purchase, but it looks/sounds like it'll be a great fit! Being able to just lift it up and throw it in the van at the end of a trek will be SO much nicer than the old setup.
Glad the van is working better now, reliability is so important when you are constantly on the move. Love the videos and content, never miss a one. Cheers to you and Rocko.
Good to see you and Rocco back. I didn't express my self well enough on your cancellation of Patreon. I supported you through Patreon to enable you to do what you do on You Tube and keep you out of the factory. Your videos are just plain enjoyable, you are sincere, no drama, no other BS. Rocco is an added bonus, she is hilarious, seems to have similar characteristics to my own dog although completely different breed. Glad to see you are close to my favorite area of the world, the East Kootenays. Hope you and Rocco are doing well.
We were so happy to see this video this morning. We were a little worried about you and Rocko. We are not able to travel any longer and we get a lot of joy from your videos, Foresty. We are glad to hear the van is working better now too!
Rocko is such a diva. I love that "strike a pose" move she does after chasing the ball. You go girl! 👽✌️ Do be careful with that E-bike. A lot of issues with fires here in the US ,caused by those things.
Just wanted you to know I really appreciate all your hard work. You and Rocko bring me so much joy. Love the hiking , cooking, how much you care for Rocko and your thoughtfulness for your viewers. Thank you so very much. 😊 ❤
You should enable subscriptions here on UA-cam. I dont think anyone expects any extra content from you, but would like a way to show support on a monthly basis.
Things change as life happens. At 73 I've decided to return to work so my own hiking, fishing, camping experiences have been greatly reduced. It's all good just life changes. I completely understand your decision about Patreon even though I watched your adventures here on UA-cam. With less time to hike and working long hours I'm watching far fewer channels. Yours is one I hope never to give up. Thanks for all you do and glad your rig is running well again. Cheers from the States. ❤
Out in my driveway sits a brand new Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 170 high top. Her name is Atheana J. To Max Air fans and windows will be installed next week and then I get to do the walls and the ceiling. Sir anytime I get lazy about the project before me I put your videos on the TV and they always remind me of the excitement that awaits. The buildout will be basic but she'll still have all the Comforts of home and that's actually what her name means in numerology is home away from home. As Long as You Follow Your highest excitement God in the universe will always provide everything you need every step of the way. Thank you for what you bring to me and the rest of the world we can only hope that you feel the love back!
I am such a fan. The only snow I enjoy is in photos. I congratulate myself for summiting a single flight of stairs. But I cannot get enough of your effort, insight and creativity. Oh, and cooking. And of course Rocko. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with the world. And for caring for the planet as you do. I wish you and Rocko long, safe and healthy futures.
After the last video, I was very worried that I would not see you again, but was pleasantly surprised today to see you have not gone away. I so much look forward to your weekly escapades. As an older person, I find myself living through your heroic outdoor trips. Hope all is well, and you do whatever is best for you. If you need time off, it is ok to just do it. Wishing you and Rocko continued safe travels. 😎
So glad you and Rocco along with the van are well. Rocco is so cute and full of energy Good thing you like to walk/hike to release that Jack Russell energy in her.
I hope you can feel all the positive energy that your viewers send your way. It is a small way for us to thank you for all your efforts and the joy you bring to so many. Also glad to see that Patreon isn't the only way to send funds. Thanks, and so pleased to see you back.
So happy to see your videos back again! Miss both you and Rocko ❤️ you both got me through some tough times with your entertaining videos. Much love and support 🙏✌️🤙 if there's any way I can keep donating to you that would be awesome... I wouldn't expect anything in return. Just want you to continue what you love doing and keep you out of the factory
He recently added a Thanks button in the comments section. This is the way that I plan to contribute every month, the same amount that I was giving through Patreon.
I really appreciate your channel brother No BS No politics No begging Real Adventures in real outdoor settings always interesting and entertaining unlike those pulling their tv out of garage and driving down the street to the nearest park or Walmart to camp
Good your back..missed your video's... We coming into winter where we are soon...getting cooler everyday... Michelle from Horse Creek Queensland Australia ❤🙂💙
You bring joy to our lives Foresty. I hope you are doing well. Take care.
Don't forget Rocko!
Eight mile on snowshoes is "a short hike". Lemme guess it'll be near eight hours round trip. 😂
he really does
Thanks!
Protect this man at al costs
That's your job! Lol
thank you Jesus
He is risen!
@@RealG-j2q 😂
I agree
Hey! Nothing wrong with Kraft Texas Mexico cheese! Glad to see you back :)
Bah, the Canadian Dairy Cartel is a joke and a stain on the legacy of this formerly great country.
Good day to you Mr. Wallis. Loved your most recent Camping behind a billboard sign video 😊👍 Hope you are keeping well 🙏
Love you both ❤❤❤
90% cheese from Canadian cows...10% cellulose from BC forests :-)
Somewhere in Texas some viewer is angrily preparing a manifesto to explain how wrong you are
Thanks! This will cost me more than Patreon but you have forced my hand 😬🙂
Man, I'm so glad you're doing fine. Was actually worried not having heard of you for a few weeks. I wish you two all the best.
Respect. When most ‘tubers are doing anything they can to enhance revenue, Forest is doing his best to simplify n streamline. Man epitomizes the simple life.
Thanks Foresty! Nice Bike!
Thanks
Pleased, to learn of Forest's decisions and he appears rested & relaxed.
the ebike choice makes life a lot easier, storefront support is good from pedego, and now less moving the van to get errands done. perfect choice!
Be safe my snow junkie. It a great time to be out Forest. Love your judgement ! Be safe and have a great spring. Can’t wait for some summer heat. ! Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels

Same freedom for me, Foresty!
When I looked at my account it seemed like the Patreon was just set to inactive and the billing starts up again when he reenables his account.
Thanks Foresty!
FORESTY!!! Welcome back!!!
We were not sure if we were going to see you again or not.

Now, please feel free to take time off whenever you need it. Don't feel obligated to produce videos, except on YOUR schedule!

Amen to that! Was so thrilled when this new one popped up!
Merci!
Thanks! Great to see you Back.

Rocko has been attending UA-camr classes. 🙂
She scared to the one Grizzly away that was contemplating an appearance. Good job Rocko
Yeah, I noticed that. Playing to the camera. 😃
I literally laughed out loud when Rocko stopped and looked at the camera. 😂
I love that you give back to collectives, fix up trails and have a heart of service. Respect.
The myth, the legend, and Foresty Forest
I was sure it was gonna be one of those new jetpacks 😁
Thanks for everything brother. Keep it balanced.
Kiitos!
Welcome back. You look very well FF.

@@memorysometimers3067 Haha, Foresty wishes it were that easy.
Just can’t get enough of forestys videos. Love seeing that little nugget, Rocko 😂❤🙌🏻
Thanks Foresty - happy to give on here rather than Patreon. Glad you're feeling less stressed!
Glad the van is working better now, reliability is so important when you are constantly on the move. Love the videos and content, never miss a one.
Cheers to you and Rocko.

Seeing Rocko on the way back was a hoot! good to see she stops and waits for you to catch up.

Great to see you and Rocko back in action! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Your dog makes me smile 😊
Rocko’s “fetch the ball” segment was epic, as she turns and faces the camera with ball in mouth! 😁
Happy all is well and back to normal. ❤️
Love the videos
Yeah, that was pretty cute.
It’s the vase and flowers that pulls it all together for me 💐😊
Thanks from an ex-patreon.
Thank you Foresty for being willing to explore the alpines for us!! 🌲🌿 Jolly Good Show!! ✨
Thank you, Forest, for all the great content and the good vibes.
Love you two... Great adventure!
Welcome back Foresty! UA-cam sucks without you.
Rocko is such a diva. I love that "strike a pose" move she does after chasing the ball. You go girl! 👽✌️ Do be careful with that E-bike. A lot of issues with fires here in the US ,caused by those things.

Glad to see you come back.
Lots squeezed into this video, a summit, a meal, a Patreon update... and a new vehicle! Thanks FF and welcome back!
Good for you on stopping Patreon when you really didn't have too. Honestly, we need more people like you.
Good to see you again. Every summit you two do is gorgeous whether big or small. Thanks for sharing. 😊
So glad you're back in beautiful British Columbia ❤🐕💕✌🏻🇨🇦
Good to see you back bud, and welcome back to BC. Looking forward to another season of adventures!
Will be the first to purchase a Foresty Forest recipe book. Looking forward to a chapter on all things crockpot.
Really missed you guys. Well maybe Rocko slightly more. So glad your back. Your videos are my favourite. Love watching Rocko.x
Glad to see you're helping Rocko live her best possible life.
The men , the myth, the Legend.
Please do a Rocko and Foresty Forest coffee mug so I can add it to my collection.
Happy to know that things are getting back on track for you and Miss Rocko. You seem like such a genuinely stellar dude.
Best UA-cam channel EVER 💕🌱
Hope the new e-bike has been a good investment for you. Long live the Van! 🍻 Foresty
I’m so happy to see a FF and Rocko video!! Now I’m hungry for pancakes. Live your best life, whatever that is

Your the only van dweller I watch. One of the only real people out there. Kudos
I can see from that time-lapse heading back to the van that Rocko is becoming quite the guide!
That's the happiest dog ever ❤

Nice E Bike! Now to rig up a Rockolounger seat….😁
Love it!
Foresty, both you and Rocko have been greatly missed!! It’s great to see you at it again! 🤎
I tend to throw in the bacon halfway thru frying the potatoes. Less fat, more flavour plus extra crispy bacon.
Good to hear that your home is running well! Happy Spring to the both of you.

What other way is there (other than merch)?

So great to hear from you again! Hope all is well
Good your back..missed your video's...

Good to see you two and the fabulous scenery with blue sky beyond compare
I am so glad your vehicle is behaving itself. Rocco is darling as usual.
Thanks!, as always. Seriously want to do a trip to BC. Plenty of empty space in the Western US, but you guys have the real”alone”. Stay safe.
Love this man, what a beautiful lifestyle. 🙌🏼
I can't imagine your life is as laid-back as you are😊. That you persevere is a great credit to you. I pray that you succeed in all you do.🙏
Hi Simon! I hope you guys are doing good. I’ve been rewatching some older videos.
Me too
I love watching Foresty's past videos, also.
Having an endless frustrating day at work. This is the highlight of my Friday so far.
