- This was my first solo backpacking trip with my golden retriever, Nala. We stayed the night near Silver Lake Flat in American Fork Canyon, UT. I have never gone backpacking with Nala alone before, and I wanted to do something pretty easy and close to home. Nala did great and we will definitely be doing more backpacking this year!

The cinematography is outstanding. The relationship between man and dog , the views, camera angles, the silence. Absolutely Breathtaking.
Thank you so much! It’s always a ton of effort to make something like this with the quality that I envision so I’m always grateful when someone recognizes the details. Thanks again 🙏🏼
I was thinking the same exact thing after watching this video. Besides the beautiful views you and nala have such a beautiful relationship.
@@AdventuringWithNala I enjoyed this video so much! For me, it's the best thing to watch on you tube and I love Golden Retrievers! Blessings and love from Germany ❤
WOW, the scenery, you captured it beautifully... spectacular video, Great Job... Absolutely Loved it...
100% agree. This whole video is like a meditation in…..peace. I needed this so much.
Gotta love a man who loves his dog like that❤
This content was shot to perfection. All the different multiple camera angles are masterpieces its as if you have a 5-man camera crew with you, but you did this all alone, such amazing work.
Appreciate that! Thank you. The camera setup does add a lot of work but it’s always worth it ❤️
NALA was like “when are we gonna stomp”🥺🤣
Nala is a beautiful happy golden girl. I love how you both look out for one another.
I love these videos. They really help alleviate my depression
I agree this man is better than a counselor! He gives us peace
So true
she is the main character, this trip was definitely about her. I love it!
That has to be heaven. Out packpacking with your adorable dog.
i just adore Nala watching every of your step. she really loves you with all of her heart. beautiful bond.
Hi from Scotland! Enjoyed your film so much. You 've got a best friend in Nala. Beautiful nature in there too and looks you had it all for yourself.. I 've got two labs [mother and daughter] and often take them for adventures out up the hills too.
Your videos are amazing.
This is so relaxing to watch. Nala is so beautiful. She is so lucky to have you.
Hey Dean, thanks so much for giving it a watch and for leaving such a nice comment. I am definitely the lucky one though! She is the best adventure buddy I could ask for. Thank you my friend 🙏🏼
I think it's the other way around. He is the lucky that she is in his life. I love dogs
So meditative without background music
Such a classic golden retriever. Loves their person and their favorite place is right next to you- no leash necessary, always wants pets and love, perfect companion. I sure miss my goldie. Enjoy the beautiful scenery!
Nala is the greatest girl I've ever seen especially with her stomps!
I have one just like her. Goldies are the sweetest natured dogs , they give you so much of themselves. Who would have known that the mix of setter, irish yellow dog, (extinct now ), water spaniel, Tweedsdale spaniel, also extinct, and blood hound, would have produced this God-given gift of a dog so loving and wanting only to be your best buddy, loving you with a constancy like no other. Those 19th century Scottish estate owners who wanted to breed a dog for retrieving game from water have left the world the priceless legacy of the golden retriever we know and love so much.
Goldens are 100% pure unadulterated love... I love them all- they make my day- every day!! Our boy is just over a year old- so much fun!!
That’s a dog living a hell of a life. Good for both of you 👌👏
Definitely a two way street with the dog and master. Who love who more? It makes me smile. Love seeing the dog having a Whale of a time,also his love for the water.
The amount of walking back and forth and effort you must've put in to get those cinematic shots is crazy, well done!
I got some really bad news and have been feeling overwhelmed lately and this video popped up. It brought me so much joy and peace. Thank you for creating this. God bless
So sorry to hear but happy to help your mind escape the sadness even if only for a few minutes. Brighter days are ahead. Please take care 🫶❤️
@@AdventuringWithNala Thank you so much!
I just came back to Utah and am reunited with my dog after 3 years abroad and this is exactly the sort of trip we both need about now! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow Chris, you trained Nala soo well! That's the only way to be really free with a dog and also how I respect a dog owner. Small but effective commands and corrections all over the video.
Your bond with her is absolutely amazing!
Amazing how many people you make happy by enjoying you and Nala after Posting a short video a few years ago. Thanks for taking us with you.
It truly is amazing! Thank you 🙏🏼
Everything about this is honestly so perfect; so therapeutic. You pair are captivating 😌
Aww thank you so much! This comment made me smile from ear to ear. Thank you for taking some time out of your day to watch and leave such a nice message! 🙏🏼❤️
Love the way Nala enjoys her time with you. Beautiful scenery. I love the mountains, rivers and all. I live in Florida, and it’s very flat down here. Great video, thanks!!!
Thank you! I’m from Florida so I know you’re telling the truth! 😂
Really love the hikes and trips without music. So peaceful
Nala is the perfect hiking buddy!
The white-noise Nala stomps were poetic
This is such a phenomenal adventure, and your camera angles are amazing. Adventuring with Nala cannot get better than this💛🐶.
16:33, this is the most beautiful moment with you and Nala❤️🥺
Aww thank you!!
The Camara angles are amazing. He puts so much time setting everything up. Hard to believe he does this all by himself.
@@lelaryterski5804 thanks so much! It’s a ton of extra effort but I’m always happy with the outcome! ❤️🙏🏼
I admire u men, for real. You for me are a true good man, look a the life that you're giving to nala... the peaceful hours sharing together ,i love it bro.
Gorgeous views!! I hope I can visit there one day, it looks absolutely breathtaking! This video was so peaceful to watch and I love Nala!! Can’t wait to see more.
Thanks so much Lexii!! I wanted to try something different with this one with just the sounds of nature instead of using music. I’m glad you enjoyed!!
It is so nice to see the scenery where you live and that you appreciate it so much. These hikes with Nala are so special.
So beautiful… your relationship with Nala is heartwarming..love this pup ❤
Well, I lost what I was typing. Just wanted to say Chris your camera shots are absolutely breathtaking. Lots of work. I do love these videos and both you and Nala . ❤️❤️
Great video - amazing memories that neither you nor Nala will ever forget. This video will mean so much more to you in 20 to 30 years!
I agree. Thank you ❤️🙏🏼
Good point
I grew up in that area and would go hiking there all the time. Love seeing it like this. It really is peaceful. Definitely subscribed to you !
Thanks so much Emily! My favorite time of year in American fork canyon before all the roads open up for the summer! Do you still live in Utah? Thanks for subscribing! 😊
@@AdventuringWithNala I moved to Arizona last October but my parents still live in provo
Your video makes me smile. Nana is sooo sweet and well behaved. You guys love each other so so much. Thanks for sharing.
Good looking gear man and thank u for not adding background music! Great video and makes us all wanna grab our dog and go camping! Stay safe and blessed
I really enjoyed this video! You did GREAT! Setting up the cameras, capturing the moments as well as scenery, not to mention video editing. That’s A LOT of work but I REALLY enjoyed this video! Thank you! Hope to see many more camping/hiking videos of both y’all. (Awesome dog by the way)! She LOVES & ADORES you so very much! Freaking awesome the bond y’all have! When you have a dog like that, who needs anything or anyone else? 😊
American Fork Canyon looks like such a BEAUTIFUL place! Hope I get to go there one day!
Loving your journey! Please continue to take us with you! Be careful & Stay blessed! 😊❤️🙏
My thoughts exactly. You'd be surprised Chris at how many people are enjoying watching your videos with your precious girl. Gosh I love her. Would love to be there in that gorgeous country, so peaceful, truly God's country. Enjoy and be safe. Love to you both. ❤❤
Getting ready to take my first multi-day solo camping trip with my dog as well! Coincidentally, we have a lot of the same gear... Including tent, pad and pillow!
The bond between you two is lovely... My guy is a water dog as well, and we love sharing apples like that.
I’ve only spent a handful of time in Utah, but from my experience and after watching this video, it seems there are plenty of scenic hidden gems to admire nature’s beauty.
I’m happy to find such a refreshing video... Thank you!
Love both you and Nala, you are such an amazing person and Dog dad that you deserve so much in your life. I love so much of your content!
Such wholesome content! Nala is a sweet baby!
Found your content originally on Tik Tok and really enjoyed it with your dog Nala. Glad to see these longer videos here on UA-cam.
Thank you Ben!! I’m planning to do a lot more of these longer videos here in UA-cam this year. Thanks for stopping by!!
Thanks so much for sharing. I used to backpack with my Golden regularly and they are such good camping buddies.
Bless u Chris and Nala. What a great life u 2 have with each other. 😊
Adventure with Nala are best! Absolutely favorite video
this is such relaxing and fun content, i would watch this daily 😁 love your attitude and nala!!
Thank you so much! We’ve got lots planned for this summer that I’m really looking forward to. Thanks so much for watching and dropping a comment! 🙏🏼
He is so chill
I love that Nala swims after the duck, my dog would try to catch the duck before getting as deep as his stomach and then just watch the duck.
Hahah that’s one of my favorite parts! She wanted that duck so bad 😂
Love your vlogs, they're so calming and chill. Makes me want to get out there even more !
You 2 have an Amazing Relationship! Nala is Absolutely Adorable! I Love the Nala Stomps and Zoomies! The county Y’all hike through is Absolutely Gorgeous! I Loved it when Nala tried to catch the Duck! 🤣 Look forward to seeing your next video! God Bless you Both!
Thank you for sharing your time with us. As others here have said, you do a nice job with your cinematography.
love to watch both of your relation and love...
you should do backpacking more often... like mat, monty and ruger...
amazing and nice scenery...
give our best to nala...
My favorite one yet. Great views and different camera angles. Love it! ❤️
Wow, gorgeous scenery. Always love to watch yours and Nala's adventures. ❤
Absolutely love these trips. So happy I discovered you! I also love your shorts with Nala and they are hilarious the way you talk to her!😂
Thank you for sharing and taking us with you on such a beautiful trip.
i noticed your posts in the shorts. have seen you with Nala so many times through those shorts and appreciated the enthusiasm and her happiness. It reminded me of my dear Jackson who made it to 17! Before he eventually had cancer. It brought me a bit of enjoyment seeing someone having fun with a golden who is clearly having alot of fun too. I have subscribed today though as I realize you provide alot more than these short and I thank you very much to allow someone like me to experience the goofy fun a GR can bring. Your effort to create beautiful content in this video is fantastic! Keep it up my new friend
Fantastic scenery and what good weather too! Love it.
You’re a lucky man to have this dog. Thanks for sharing.
I love your hiking videos with Nala! What a beautiful place! Thank you so much for sharing your hikes with us! You are so funny and kind. I truly enjoy all your content! Sending hugs to sweet Nala! ❤😊
After the cam is set up, Nala's like, dude, we just walked up this trail, why are we doing it again? Beautiful bond, beautiful adventures
I LOVE you and Nala! Truly the way you live your life is so inspiring.
In terms of the vid, not that I know anything about videography. I would slightly disagree with the rest of the comments as I felt the multiple shots of you guys walking wasn’t super necessary because I just kept feeling bad thinking of you setting it up and redoing the walk! But if it’s fun for you by all means, otherwise don’t strain yourself if you don’t want to (: I hope you continue to post more!
My favorite shot is the two of you on the rock, looking at the grand view ❤️
That was soothing for the soul 😌 thank you very much 👍
You are amazing and brilliant! I started watching your backpacking videos in the order - latest to oldest! I have seen your work. The angles, the cinematography is excellent! Crisp! On point! Each shot is in itself worth a thousand word! You are really hardworking, a true dog lover and a kind being. I always loved your smile/laugh! Off course Nala is awesome!
Thanks for taking us along on this gorgeous trip👏
16:30 Im fucking crying. So goddamn precious. Protect this man at all costs
Such a beautiful scenery ❤️ glad you and nala had fun
Love the vibes i get watching you and Nala enjoying nature, keep making these awesome videos!!
Hey robin! Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking some time to watch and leave a wonderful comment. Plenty more to come!!
I just love Nala and the videos you post. Nice view at the lake.
How is it that this wasn't shot with a camera crew? So well done including the edit. Every dog should have a buddy like this great guy .
Nala is such a sweet golden!! We love your vids!! Keep up the good work!!
I love your videos. Thanks for bring us along
Thank you! The pleasure is mine! Thank you for joining us!! 🙏🏼
Incredible photography. Breathtaking views. When you walked into the morning sun and threw your arms out, it reminded me of the Sound of Music-the hills are alive with the Sound of Music. But, I thought that during most of this video. Thank you so much for all of your hard work.
beautiful and smart dog
Nala is so happy and loving, what a beautiful pup xx Thank you for sharing your trip and I love the fact that she came looking for her stomps xx
I just rescued a dog similar to Nala and started hiking again... came across your channel by accident, thanks for the videos, keep vlogging please!!!
Love to hear it man!
Simply magic
I love Videos … very calming … and very well executed, with love and patience … and I love your relationsship with Nala ❤
i loooove these videos to see how much you two bond and the steps you take as far as camping is wonderful. Ive never been camping but after watching your videos I definitely want to start. thanks for sharing your experiences and Nala girl with us u can tell how happy she is with you.
I love this comment so much. Thank you!! She’s the best adventure buddy I could ever ask for and it makes me so happy that she enjoys it as much as I do (probably more ☺️) I would definitely recommend trying camping at least once to see if you like it!
I've become a real fan of you both. Nala is such a sweet angel and so are you 😊😊
Greetings from Morocco🤗🤗🤗
Nala IS crazy! She's crazy about her Papa! Love you sweet girl! 😍🥰💕🩷
Thank you for showing me such an interesting video,this is the life i aspire to!
Again perfect video👍☺️. You, Nala, mounthins and silence. What i can say☺️. This is absolutely amazing. I sending hugs from Czech Republic 🤗💙🐕🍀
You gotta train Nala to fetch the camera after you get the walking shots lol
I 🥰❤️💙ya two,so adorable, God bless you & princess Nala 😘❤️
ok so I loved the short videos of Nala for a while and had no idea this breathtaking content existed. this is so wholesome❤ I feel fooled😂
Cool golden retriever. I had one back in the early 2000's and a couple of labs since. My current lab is a little lighter than Nala. Not quite two so still a good bit of puppy in him but he's getting there. Pretty scenery in your video.
Love the treats for her!!
Thank you for sharing on UA-cam ❣️ I only have Facebook. I don't any other medias. Love watching you and Nala❣️ God bless you two❣️🙏✝️🙏❣️
Breathtaking views! And I loved how your microphone picked up the river near your campsite. Such a beautiful journey and you are right - nothing beats hiking and camping in the mountains! Thank you for sharing this journey. :)
Thank you so much Kimberly! At first I thought it was going to sound terrible with the river right next to us but it ended up being a really nice ambient sound and I liked it too. I really do appreciate you taking the time to give us a watch and drop a thoughtful comment. Means a lot to me! 🙏🏼❤️
@@AdventuringWithNala Your videos are just pure happiness for me! And I always suggest your channel to others with like minds for hiking. So happy that you have Nala with you on these journeys as well :).
@@kimberlypesek9537 you are amazing! Can’t tell you how much I appreciate that. Thank you!!
Yes I enjoyed watching this old vedio😊
Wonderful memories for both of you. 👍👍
Planning to take my 5 year old golden retriever on his first overnight backpacking trip and just wanted to see what others are doing. Great fun!
Nala is sick a good swimmer. I never got my Goldens to get in more than tummy-deep. I'll have to do some searches for teaching this.
Wow ! This is like watching a movie 🎞️📽️🎬 what a talent. 👏👏👏
the view is amazing + with Nala ❤❤ and hot coffee, 😋 so quite its perfect 💯💯💯
That dog is ao in love with her owner, such a pleasure to see
Chris, you and Nala are winning. W
Great cinematography. !!!!
the greatest thing about dogs, is unconditional love. all you have to do is be good to them. you do that and they will be your best pal, for all their lives!
That coffee must have been delicious,fresh ground, fresh brewed, outside in the mountains with your dog.
I mean after all the work.
