    As a boomer I’d give you the same advice I’d give my daughters and grandchildren. I’d move campsite and check your vehicles for tracking devices. I've never seen your channel before today but the thought of anyone stalking a young lady is extremely unsettling. Let the police know what’s going on. If you have a partner or spouse keep in touch with them while solo camping. I know that takes away from the experience but it’s better to be safe.

      I totally agree with you. This is also the first video I have seen, it’s Terrifying the thought of someone stalking a young woman and she’s also solo camping, I am glad she has things to defend herself and her dog too. I hope she can find somewhere else far away from that camp she had made. It’s heartbreaking seeing her going though this on her own. She’s braver than me!!

      @MrBilld75 10 місяців тому

      I just said much the same, but related to her cell phone and Google account. If they have gained (hacked) access to her Google account they can track her through GPS that way too, not just a GPS device like an Apple air tag or whatever. I've heard of it happening before and it's actually what cops use to track people too. They don't need to go to all the trouble of trangulating your cell phone like years ago, they can just get access to your Google account, which follows you via the phone's GPS, so they can send you targeted ads when you are near a place that advertizes with them.

      Put one or more in such a place that wherever the closest vehicular access points are you'll be able to photograph license plates. Tracking someone down by a picture of their face at a bad angle is hard. License plates on the other hand . . .
      You can correlate the time of their appearance with the time that certain vehicles arrived and the police can work with that, comparing the person's physical appearance with the drivers of each vehicle.

      She is in a very creepy and probably dangerous situation which includes stalking which would be a terrifying experience.
      For you to just dismiss that with a few words without sharing proof is to me very irresponsible and frankly quite sick.
      I agree to some extent that we have to be careful trusting (for us) unknown UA-camrs (I have never heard or watched this woman’s channel before, it was recommend in my feed with a title that made me want to watch it).
      Some UA-camrs sadly destroys the legitimacy of all UA-camrs because there are some who go to extreme lengths to get more views and subscribers to get more fame / money. It’s disgraceful and sadly not very uncommon.
      If that’s the case here, she’s very cruel to her audience.
      However I wouldn’t dismiss her serious claims by throwing empty allegations out there as you are doing, stating that she made it all up herself. Especially if you don’t know the person, just typing a few words without proof.
      That makes me more suspicious of you becasue it’s not normal to say and do such a thing Unkess you truly know and present why you believe or know that this is the case.
      Regardless, it serves as a reminder to people going alone into the woods, camping or hiking. There are strange people and creatures out there and one should never let there guard down, even if there are no dangerous animals in the area.
      There are many mentally ill people who are filing the streets, go rogue into the bush etc.
      One can’t simply enjoy the nature anymore which is sad.
      Never go alone, arm yourself, put trail cams from where you park the car to the camp site in a position so that it would capture a person trying to remove one of them. It’s worth while especially if she’s being stalked.
      It’s very creepy and scary. The person who did that and left a note with a photo should be locked up.

This is my first encounter with your channel and I'm very concerned about your safety based upon what occurred. What you present here is something everyone needs to understand which is the world is a dangerous place and unfortunately it has found its way into wilderness areas. I used to solo backpack and camp and I always kept my head on a swivel not just because of mountain lions, bears and wolves but also because of people. I was an active nature photographer and I will say that it is easy to become so immersed in the process of photography that you can become distracted from potential threats. You might also consider various camp perimeter alarms for when you sleep at a solo camp. Please be safe.

People think I'm the most innocent person out there that goes to church and I'm not I'm an agnostic/atheist...I just find it funny. lol I've even had a female try to stalk me on facebook to find out information the lady was a weirdo also full of drama.

    “Civilization” to a place where the weirdos go now to destroy. Those who CAN’T, destroy ! But don’t let them win, move to another area ,the farther out the better as it’s too much work for them to go far.

    Hey Vanessa! I've followed you for a few years now and I'm saddened that your love for bushcrafting is compromised by some jerk. Only advice I can give you is to stay armed. Don't rely on your dog to protect you. Too many times, dog companions have been neutralized. Think about using perimeter alarms at your campsites but set them up discreetly in the event that you have a watcher. Have your sidearm at the ready at all times and don't feel bad about it. The alternative could be much worse. And lastly, there is an old saying here in the states that goes, "I'd rather be judged by Twelve, than be carried by Six". Meaning facing a court instead of your funeral. That said, don't be afraid to USE YOUR WEAPON, if a threat arises. BE Smart, Be Ready, BE SAFE! Phil from Massachusetts, USA

I'm a city woman who, for the last year or so, has started thinking about going out to nature. I've never refrained from doing things because there's nobody to come along. Whatever loose plans I have for hiking and backpacking in the near future aren't preconditioned on someone else tagging along. I'm not one to immediately jump on the gender bandwagon, meaning I don't usually interpret events in those terms. I can't help thinking this wouldn't happen if you were a man. I could be wrong of course... maybe these things occasionally happen to men as well but they don't make videos about it? It really has a horror movie vibe to it. If i were you i'd change locations because I don't think you'll be able to relax there.
    On the flip side though: this person who obviously want to make you feel scared and vulnerable has actually helped increase your audience! I'm sure I'm not the only person new to your channel to click on this video!

I'm glad that you have a dog and some weapons, but I'm going to echo several suggestions that have been suggested elsewhere on these threads . . .
    - Relocate your camp, well away from here.
    - Collect ALL the evidence, including photos, notes, the damage; give it all to the police.
    - Consider not going out alone anymore.

The damage to her shelter, the communique left on the fallen roof, and the defecation in what I assume was her fire-pit are an alarming set of behaviours. She needs to treat this incident as a VERY SERIOUS violation to her person. She needs to report it, and take serious steps to safeguard herself. The person who did this is NOT NORMAL!!!!

The photo, try to remember where it could be taken, or try to see if it could be just a frame from your video.

Be vigilant and set up a trail cam somewhere close but hidden, that can keep a watch on your camp while there and while away. Also look closely around your camp for any trail cam that may have been put there. Always leave word with someone when you go and or maybe bring a friend who can be with you. They can keep an eye on the surrounds while you do your work. Not sure if you can carry mace or not but that would also be good protection to keep in your pocket. If you have bears in the area it is useful to repel them also. It is very scary to have someone do this to you, but try not to allow them what they are seeking. They want you in fear. If you have not already, let your police know what has happened. I love your channel and you have a new subscriber from the USA.

    That's awful 😞.
    At least you have your dog companion to alert you if someone tries approaching you, allowing heads up.
    I've lived far off beaten paths before off grid and im a male. There are weirdos out about the Forest, trust me, I know. Several camps I created, they steal and yes pret on Folk's.
    Be safe, carry bear spray and weapon of choice...
    People follow those on UA-cam and there are sickos out in the World.
    I know it's heartbreaking someone has done this, besides the photo, but you have your life.
    I know there's You Tuber's that's had everything stolen due to uploading information & people knowing their location, try not to share your area, etc.
    Stay safe, stay strong.

    The good news is that he left DNA, probably fingerprints, and clear evidence of stalking you. Make sure the police collect all the forensic evidence by reporting it to them and doing as little as possible to disturb the rest.
    There may be even more serious charges available, as criminal activity, if carried out intending to change someone else's legal behaviour is almost a textbook definition of terrorism.

    Do you think it is possible that this is the same person who you have had problems with in the past? If so then this is an extremely dangerous situation that should not be left not dealt with because your life could be in danger. You should DEFINITELY notify Police.
    Either way defecation is a sign of SERIOUS mental health issues.

    Hey Vanessa I don't know you but someone asked me for help, I was at your camps location this week and as an ex army scout we have managed to track down 4 individuals that were all males, not 1 but all 4. We are 98% sure every single one of them took part in destroying your camp as there were multiple prints of each for a long period of time all over your camp, I tracked them as far as I could andwill pass my findings on to the local authorities in the coming days.

    You might want someone to lookout for you.. maybe protect an area with devices (strings set up with tin cans and stones in them to make noise) to scare them away.. and/or have your protection team ahead of you as you come to a new camp location.
    You also need to keep a close eye out for your dog so it is not eating poison, too!

    Vanessa. I felt compelled to write you about your troubles. Who would have ever thought what would transpire in your journey from the simple beginnings then through your medical journeys and beyond. As a country boy I have lived in the woods more than out and have had my share of weirdos stalk me, really for real. Some very wrong people. The thing to do is exactly what you did in the last video. Stand up to them and let them know you are ready to fight, let them see it in your eyes. I found that there was a much higher concentration of them in popular fishing spots. You dog is the one of the most intelligent ones in the world. One more? maybe up it to two dogs. My brother trains Belgums, he is a world class trainer and was a Navy Seal. My solution is to find places that are suited for only the really fit explorer.
    I have watched you from the very beginning and you have become someone that is very special to me as it is like watching a person being severely tested but always coming out better than before. All this is happening for a reason and some day that will be clear to you. I am 72 and still walk the rivers doing Archeology studies. I am proud to know you what you have become. You have become a great person right before my very eyes. You stand for what is the best in the Human experience. Their Jealousy is their pain and they are lost in it. You are Not. Best Joe

    Vanessa, security is utmost important for a female alone and especially for one of social media fame.
    Therefore everytime you set up a camp you should hide a cheap motion activated game camera nearby to catch dangerous vandals in the act to identify them just in case something happens.

    You are an inspiration and anyone who would do something like this is both dishonorable and lacking any morals. Don't let them stop you! Keep following your path. As a father, I would advise you to move camp, carry a can of bear spray for safety (if it can take down a bear, it can take down a person) and purchase a trail camera to monitor your campsite. If it captures anyone damaging your site, turn the footage over to the police. Stay safe, stay strong.

    • @Beloved-of-the-Divine

      Bear spray would be my go to as it will temporarily blind them up to 30 minutes giving you a chance to get away. Plus the spray is wide, you don't have to be so careful when you aim. Might be easier for you if you're caught off guard.

    Vanessa I hope you read this!
    I hope this finds you well and safe! First let me say that photo was a trail cam photo most likely because it was taken at fairly close range and in black and white. I am certain you would have noticed a person that close in the silence of the woods. This leads me to several conclusions- either this is someone who you have told about where you bush craft and trusted they would not harm you OR the more likely scenario is that this was done by someone who the land owner knows and has given permission to hunt there. Someone who would be angry that you are possibly scaring away the animals because of your scent as you walk along the same game trail they set their camera on. This person was probably told..."oh by the way be careful, I let Vanessa do her bush crafting on my property" possibly a son or grand child of the owner...someone who blames you for not getting a deer last year....someone childish enough to shit outside in your camp without wiping...or worse, wiping with their finger😂. I may be wrong but it is more logical to me than a stalker being that close, with your back to them and not making a move but also someone young enough to know how to use technology and have shitty hand writing. It would be simple to google Vanessa bush craft and compare the picture till they find the correct person. But I have good news and bad news...the good news is shit carries DNA...the bad news is you'd need to collect a sample and store it till you need it for evidence 🤢. I am sure the police wouldn't keep it unless a violent crime was committed against you...which may be too late. Or thirdly and least likely- you faked this for dramatic effect to get more likes (which I don't think you did). I hope this gives you some ideas if you decide to investigate further, I would also save that note for hand writing comparisons. Maybe the land owner recognizes the hand writing? Stay safe and stay alert stay armed. I might be wrong, there is a first for everything😅 take care I just subscribed and look forward to more content...possibly from a better safer location.
