- For this week's adventure I met up with the UA-cam legend Foresty Forest and his mountain climbing dog Rocko. (My dog Kyro had to stay with grandma for this one). We aimed for Mount Harrison, the southern most 11,000 ft mountain in the Canadian Rockies. It is the tallest mountain I've tried to climb with class 2 or 3 scrambling.

Join me on PATREON bit.ly/patreon...
Thanks for being here and thank you for supporting mine and Kyro's adventures. We love making videos and Patreon will help us put more time and effort into giving back to you :).
Your views and comments on UA-cam also mean the world. Cheers!
Nice to meet you, had a great time heading up Harrison! You'll get your revenge on that mountain ⛰️ 🙂
It was awesome. Soon I will sign my name next to yours up there 😅!!
To be fair, Simon is half-mountain goat. You should be very proud of your achievement. ✌️😉
rocko is awesome....I never thought a little dog like her could do this mountain climbing.....
Nice video. I have been watching @Forestyforest for 3 years and I just find out his name is Simon. I thought he was Forest! .. I still love him and Rocko
@@SanDiegoSpiderman It's Mr. Foresty Forest to you peasant. :)
Foresty is so humble it's easy to forget he's a friggin machine
So true! The guy is superhuman! 🥰
@@balthazarquinn no arguements here ...rocko was a great addition.
Really nice to see someone making the right call and stopping when they need to stop. I've made that mistake before and it almost killed me!
you can get it back later is how we look at it....another challenge be won.
Climbing with Rocko! Lucky. What an adventure. Foresty Forest is pretty cool too. 😎
rocko is a little sherpa bro @1:55 wonderful dog....happy for FF
1:55 Rocko was protecting, scared for your safety.....FF made the right choice with Rocko! what an incredible mountain dog she's turned into. happy for ff.
The journey is more important than the destination.
A great achievement, and another great experience.
Love this. And it was a fun journey at that 😊
what if your going to the store to get bread? lol
@@jerrydelyea5820 I hope that one day you will understand.
Until then, just know that you are missing out.
thank you for this lovely lesson in respecting your limits, knowing when to push, and when to back up and be smart. scrambling on scree and loose rock is absolutely terrifying to me, so it was very impressive and more than a little scary watching you make your way up to the painting view. congrats!
Yee haw!; you hooked up w/ one of the very best: Foresty has a LONG, impressive list of summits achieved. And Rocko has seen more than most dogs.
Foresty and Rocko are the best!
That "trail" looked steep as hell and typically it looks less steep on video. Like so many others have already commented. Foresty Forest is physically a machine and mentally he has been doing summits for a while. I think it is safe to say I wouldn't have been able to make it any where close to where you did. Great job.
Just found your channel, to see you with Foresty Forest made my day.
That young man is awesome.
So are you! Looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks for sharing.
Foresty is awesome. And thank you for the kind words!
@@MadisonClysdalee As someone whom is older than you I can assure you, when I say Canada 'needs' more humans/men like Simon. Not sure what has happened on that particular front, but many bad actors out across our shared land. So glad you were able to get to hike with him as he doesn't allow many.
I love that you two go together for an adventure. Hope you do more of this! I love Foresty Forest!
What a great view, you will never forget.
Wow!!! canada hands down has the best mountains in North America. A real treasure for the eyes hopefully you will never forget.
Glad you made it up the mountain as far as you did! ❤️😀🇺🇸🌏🚙
Climbing mountains is difficult, and work !
Be proud of your accomplishments you did well , look at the views ! Well done !!
You put so much heart into this. The camera work and footage is extraordinary, the music, spinning wheels, your cheerfulness and everything! You done good and went pretty high up! Wow!
Wow, thank you! The next video will be longer. I had to focus on the climbing for this one 😅
Challenging and pushing yourself to get to that point is definitely something to be proud of. Thanks for sharing can’t wait for the next one
Thanks so much! I plan to go back after getting strong all summer :)
Oh boy my heart was racing at the beauty AND the altitude lol you did good.
Keep living the outdoor life, you will never have any regrets...
You did great. We all marvel at foresty forester . You should be proud.
Awesome collaboration! 🌲🌲
Foresty didn't go alone. He brought us with him and Rocko obvs. Nice work, good try. Adventure on. Foresty4Life.
Awesome hike- Good decisions-Live to hike another day. Your videos are beautiful & inspiring.
Well, you definitely chose the right teacher! Be careful, because that sport can be VERY addicting!
One day you're likely to turn around and discover that it's all you want to do!
. . . . I mean, just look at Simon!
😳 thanks for jumping in the cold river that was beautiful
Your positive attitude is truly inspiring and your ability to appreciate and enjoy the moment is commendable. Love your work so far. Looking forward to more collabs and more adventures.
Climbing and learning from one of the best is amazing. You got a new subscriber.
I watched the vid on FF Channel now on yours. Makes me appreciate FF’s MADD Skills. Be SAFE out in the Natural Wilderness👍👍
Such awesome scenery! You crushed it! Glad you accepted your limit too. Another day, another time. I think little Rocko enjoyed a new pal too. Hope you and Simon share a meal and talk trekking
sometime.
Love the genuine excitement!!
WOW Madison, that was amazing, well done
Very impressive to keep pushing on im from england and climbed grotto mountain in Canmore jan2023 what a life experience , feeling of being on a mountain is defianlty a breath of fresh air , next time your sure make summit stay blessed
That sounds wonderful! You experienced something most people even from the USA won't. I am very tempted to visit Canada in the summer some day. I've seen the Rockies in Colorado and it is just spectacular, even just seeing it from the Denver area.
I followed you on IG earlier, right after viewing Foresty's video - now you've popped into my UA-cam recommended, so subbed, too!
Fantastic content.
You should be proud. "Great" is achieved with a series of "almosts".
Aw beautifully said
What a great view.
Thankful you made it down safely.
You were in good hands its FF.
We are big fans of Foresty and Rocko and it was great to see you hiking with them. We are having fun watching your videos that we have not seen yet.
OMG that river looked the color of ice!
Thank you. I’m injured I used to hike ❤️
Takes a mature climber to understand their limits. Well done.
The view looking down at the other mountain tops is amazing.
Stunning view from up there! Great job👍
Madison……I am so proud of you climbing that mountain. I have hiked for all my life doing hard hikes and I know what you went through. Six hours up is truly amazing. I am hooked on you and your videos. Those mountains are truly amazing. So beautiful. I love those pants on you. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Madison what a beautiful Awesome Scenery that’s cool 😊
The edge of the world 🌎 🥾
My favorite video yet. You really captured the angle of the mountain as you were looking down. Great job on the hike!
Forestyforest is a very nice guy. I follow him on UA-cam, fellow Canadian. Great video as usual, love the beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing, take care and be safe out there.
Awesome video. And great to see you met Simon. He should be called Mr Mountain ranger, lol since knows how to climb all the hills safely especially with Rocko
Congrats on a great attempt. Looks scary as hell from my perspective, so good for you for knowing and trusting your limits, and for getting as far as you did. Amazing views from your high perch.
Foresty has convinced me to get a small dog! Rocko is awesome!
Taking a break from News etc on utube.Tuned in from Ontario. Enjoy your content.
Great video! Your video style, enthusiasm, knowledge and beautiful scenery are so refreshing! Almost had a heart attack watching you brave that loose rock. Awesome job!
What majestic scenery! Thanks for climbing and sharing it with us.
So high up there wow🍁
Wow. Impressive and such lovely shots. Keep the videos coming.
Just learned about you through Foresty's channel and am soooo proud of you! I look forward to more of your videos. I am excited to meet your dog, Kyro in videos.
Madison has a dog!? Awesome! 🥰🐶
Outstanding. Very beautiful country.
Holy cow, that was straight up. I don't know how you did that. The view at the top is so awesome !!
There are all different levels of fitness. I am an avid skier and backpacker. Many years ago, I started skiing with a group of skiers who skied at a complete other level. The first year I skied with them I felt I was just hanging on. As time went on things became much easier for me and I was accepted into the group as an equal. Simmon is a hammer, and he is super fit. Stay safe and live to hike another day that is what is most important. Take care.
Wow, impressive. You didn't make the summit, but look at this way: you still got to look down onto the lesser peaks all around, a view almost no one else has had!
Great climb. Forestry has been a favorite for years. Glad to meet you.
This was great. Simon does make it seem SO easy! Thank you for showing what it's like for normal humans. hahahha.
Thanks for this Megan! I knew it, knew FF makes it look easier than it is.
You did great! That shot of you on the side of that cliff😱 Awesome climbing 😊
Amazing view from the helm of western cordillera the rockies of Canada..... You are a brave person it, it is very difficult to reach that High head's off.... ❤
It's amazing that you got that far on your first major mountain hike, Madison.
Hardcore brunette!
Congratulations on YOUR climb...omg you got to meet Rocko your so lucky!!💓
Never worry about deciding to stop and go back . I can recall climbing on those scree slopes in the Rockies with my wife and at times thinking we were nuts ! and decided to retreat . A lovely video Madison .
I found u from TikTok that those short videos are not good enough to watch your whole trip. It’s impossible to see the whole picture of your journey. Now I switch to your UA-cam channel. The view and your skills of hiking climbing paddle boarding are amazing. I am learning to do more outdoor activities since this year. Learned so much experience from u like what tools I take and the equipments for car camping. Thank u so much for sharing it with us.
not only are you just such an incredible human but your filming and editing just makes this channel CHEFS MF KISS!
I’m blushing. That is so kind. Thank you!!! Slowly starting to learn my filming/editing style :)
@@MadisonClysdalee ofc! ugh i wanna be best friends:’) keep it up babe! x
Thanks!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Major accomplishment!! Congrats!
Definitely, there are angels on the top of mountains !
Great video 🙂
Did the same thing pretty much when I was first time over there two years ago like, had to turn back due to Thunderstorm but finally manage to Summit this one Yesterday!😆
Guess it's a type of the Mountain you have to visit at least twice 😁
What you did was incredible and look at that view!! That looks amazing!!
Madison I think you are so brave fearless and awesome I wish I am that free spirit and fearless and adventurous as you. You are an inspiration for me. I am a new subcriber to your channel and have been watching your great adventures videos every day and they inspire me. Thank you very much
You climbed a lot longer than i would and what a great scenery, the view was amazing from up there. Well done and thank you for sharing. ⛰
Congratulations you have made it to Billy goat status
Wow what an awesome view from the top …… !, it was worth to watch lol I hope next time you hit the submit!!! Keep it up mag 💪😀
Keep posting videos! They are so so inspiring! 🥰 I live in California and went this weekend for the first time to Yosemite. Your videos showed me that I really need to spend more time outdoors … thanks again!
Love the content of your video’s keep up the good work
Very brave. I've done those things in the past and made the call to turn back for others. Leaders look after the others even when it is you yourself you are leading. It isn't losing and I think you sensed that. It is interesting to see how much you can push the body past where you think you can go. I don't like losing time healing from overextending but you can't know exactly where that is unless you push pretty hard. I spend more time on inner mountains in time now but my spirit always rises with the altitude. "Two steps and a heartbeat."
You are so brave
Oh, well that’s kind of you to say. ☺️
Well done young lady! Well done!
what I see in this video , you do crazy things that you don't have to do. you do it for fun. like climbing almost top of the summit or almost swimming somewhere that you know bear might appear anytime . but still not going until the end.
You may not have reached the top this time, but you still went higher than anything we have here in the UK!
WOW
Good job. It's ok to stop short.
I mountain I climb and ski often, the ski point is not the summit. The shoulder really is a great place to stop. The summit doesn't matter.
Madison, Excellent Video.
this is amazing!!!
I really like this awesome video Massive congratulations on climbing the higest ever! I will check out Simons channel seems like a great guy. . Its funny you say its a painting. There are parts of the Himalayan mountain ranges that do not even look real. Its just like you say like being in an actual painting. Some of the scenary from up in the muntains is so amazing. Even some of the animals and birds do not look real. Seen some goats that are the same color as the snow and rocks and perfectly camoflage and when they stay still almost invisible. I want to visit Calgary Alberta at some point,
Such an excellent experience for you. Great video.
Thanks for sharing it.
❤
Omg so Awesome I found you! You are amazing! Keep climbing it is surreal I’ve been to the top of my highest mountain three times end it is so spiritual
Dont feel bad! Simon is part mountain goat!
It's stupendous...
Breathe rhythmically with steps, one breath-one step, or one breath-half step. Climb with the legs, use arms for balance. One small safe step at a time. Take your salt, stay hydrated. Conserve energy. Have a time control plan. Don't climb alone.
The perfect girl. You love the outdoors, you’re cool, intelligent and you look like Alexandra Daddario!
Ok I watched the whole thing and holy… that’s a view!!! And that’s what life should be all about. Soooo what did you do today? Oh nothing sat on a side of a 10000ft cliff in the clouds and chilled, how about you? 😂😂😂😂
In the mid 80s, I and 2 friends ascended that near vertical ice gully seen at 1:25 and it was a big 50 degree ice face back then, with glacier at the bottom. It's all but disappeared now. We descended this route Simon ascended. Easy way down but hours of unpleasant rubble. Still easier than downclimbing or rappelling a 400 metre high ice face.
Fantastic climb! Congrats!
