Simon, I love your channel with all the camping, hiking, climbing, and of course, Rocko the Wonder Dog. However, one aspect of your program that goes unmentioned is what a marvelous photographer / videographer / editor you are. Take a bow my friend, you deserve it.
💯👏👍
Thank you, appreciate that! Have a great weekend 😊
If Foresty ever needs to take some time off due to extended van repairs or something he could put together a compilation of some of his breathtaking drone shots with music and I'd happily watch every minute of it.
Actually people mention this in nearly all of his vidoes. It is true
@@thomasnew8606 I agree! They are stunning!
“Nobody wants to start off their summer…by DYING.”
True. Be safe people.
My favorite part of your videos are watching you cook, and seeing Rocko of course.
😭
We loved that comment too. Ha.
That is a fabulous wrap! In Nantucket, MA they make a sandwich like that and call it “Turkey Terrific” at a place as I remember called Provisions. Anyway killer meal you got there! Also another beautiful hike with beautiful scenery. Glad you saw the signs and stayed safe too. Hike on! Best to the ball of muscle and fur, the famous Rocko! She truly does have “the Modern Life”. I still have my son’s VHS tapes of that show and still funny to watch!
That was hilarious!
Yeah, I can see how that could set one back a tad. 😂
Listen Simon, I don't think anyone would mind if you started to have sponsors. It would more than pay for the van and store some away for your life. We would all still be here for you. Thank you for all the videos you put up. Stay safe
The biggest mystery is how you can come back from a hike like that and have the discipline to make a complex dinner...I'd be stuffing my face with snacks as soon as I got in the van. 🙂
I'd eat the whole box of stuffing on its own😂
After hiking, anything tastes great so making something complicated is unnecessary. Ichiban noodles and Flakes of ham is sufficient.
I'm sure he has learned the balance to success on UA-cam. Day to day van life/ hiking and camping/ and food prep.
"Nobody wants to start out their summer by dying." That's going into my collection of Forestyisms.
Lol ❤....
Rocko's like "hey wait we left the camera back there, i've seen this before dad", bonus points for the glowing rocko eyes
My 3 and a half year old little girl loves watching foresty forest…. This stuff is way better than any kids shows on tv..
How adorable!
that is awesome!
Wading through icy water at 4:30 a.m........
You are a braver man than I.
lol and doing it twice so he can get the shot and retrieve his camera...
@@mdlouie 3 times in a row... 1 to video the crossing, one to go back for the camera, and 1 more to continue up the mountain.
LOL we're all feeling wuss!
You never have to apologize, I sure I speak for all of your viewers when I express thanks for every single upload. They're always well crafted and a delight to watch 😊😊😊😊😊😊
You are a lucky man. I'm almost 60 and you have seen more than I ever have in my life time.
Note to all you young bucks out there don't settle down in one spot, this earth is a big place Explore it....
It's not luck. The dude works his backside off....
He's blessed by God and works hard. 💪 ❤.....
My oldest son is "traveling the world one baseball field at a time" ... and that is seriously true of him (he's in the Czech Rep. now). My younger son is doing the 9-5 grind with wife and child. So different -- and I know both happy if they meet their maker tomorrow (well, maybe my younger son not so, as he'd miss all that happens when raising a child) (but you get my drift, and I get yours.)
"and nobody wants to start out their summer...BY DYING"
😂😂
Forest, My 4 year old was given the option to watch one show before bed…. She picked you over Bluey. Well done sir 👏🏻
Lol, perfect compliment! Love Bluey myself 😁
smart 4 yr old you have there
Even if you decide to buy/build/renovate a cabin we'd still come for the day to day cooking and hiking adventures!
Personally, I’d have gone the truck+camper route. I probably missed the episode where he explains why it must be a van.
Foresty is a punk at heart a man who said fuck the system and does it all on his own. A true nomadic king👑
I love the guy and this channel but he technically works for google 😂
@@nykushmonster6683 depends on how you look at it. does he work for them or do they work for him?
Foresty is the UA-cam GOAT!!!
😂😂😂❤
THAT’S A BIG REEEEEE
Yea! Foresty lives to upload another day. Good to see you still trucking.
Foresty Forest, I could see that name on outdoor products akin to Northface etc. Don’t be afraid to capitalize on your success. I always liked since the early bike touring videos the fabrication and improving of gear etc ❤
Haha maybe one day. Ive considered accepting brand deals, because I'm already advertising them for free anyway. Its a weird balance... but I like keeping the videos solely about the adventures, I'm not a fan of how much advertising and sponsorships some channels will do. I think it can ruin your image if you go too far with it. Im making enough money to live comfortably in a van and have adventures, that's good enough for me!! Have a great weekend 😊
Foresty Forest he lives in a van, Foresty Forest ! 🎉
For those who heard that intro the moment you saw a new foresty video 😅
This video hasn't even been up for an hour and there are 5,324 views. I can remember when this man first started and I was one of the first (I think) to follow him. Now I'm sure it's impossible for him to answer more than a fraction of our comments. Great for him - but :( for those of us who want a wave or a HI. :)
Thanks Simon. :)
Foresty Forest is very special.
His channel is THE BEST channel on UA-cam.
Is that THE BEST you can do?
foresty's "heavy meal" would be the healthiest thing I ate all week
your camera work is brilliant
Thanks 😊
Hi foresty, you should create a wee e-book of all your recipes - I'm sure plenty of folk would buy it. All the best from Scotland!
That turkey dinner wrap looked absolutely scrumptious. You make my mouth water with your cooking 9 times out of 10.
10 times out of 10 for me. Food looks incredible.
@debrandw246
Yes, I agree, that 10 out of 10 is probably more appropriate.
But I have a somewhat delicate digestive system, and Foresty seems to love his spicy food.
So the dishes that he cooks that look really spicy might not agree with me as much as they do with him.
How can you not love foresty forest he is entertaining he takes you out into the wilderness and it’s a cooking show at the same time and we have animals. It’s the best of all the world. ❤😅
Thanks for the entertaining video as always. Loved the culinary mixed metaphor: "the icing on the cake would be to dip it in gravy." Makes my mouth water.
Whenever this van goes I'm gonna miss it. It's so cozy looking.
That WAS a very interesting video,,, the views of Landscape all around was incredible,,🙏🙏🌷🌷👏👏
Rocko will take any mountain head on!!
For those of us with short attention spans, we appreciate short videos. Yours are very high-quality and action-packed. Better that than some other van lifers out there who drone on and on for twenty five minutes and never say anything of significance.
That’s why I have my FF playlist so I can rewatch them back to back. Love ‘em no matter how long or short. ❤
And they always drone on in that inspirational soft voice 😂
Or an hour or two !!!!
@@amischair1906
A Foresty Forest playlist is a wonderful idea! I love it!! ❤
Agreed on the content and the quality of your videos. You are living doing the things I liked to do b4 my body gave out so living some of my life through you, appreciate this. Not to give you a big head, your good but rocko is best, lol. Blessings
Dying ain't much of a living! Said Clint Eastwood!
🙂
@@marianfrances4959 I hate dying its no fun
Love the videos Simon, and isn't it cool how positive all the comments are? You've really created a corner of the internet that is worth coming to!
Love this comment! ❤
And it is a very cozy corner, too.
Congratulations Rocko on summit 65!
Amazing opening shot, Simon!
Yeh.... That was Fun....
& Unexpected....
0:16 Wow, what a view! Simply stunning. ❤
If he ever publishes a book, that should be the front cover.
Foresty you are such a dedicated doer.
Nothing fazes you. 4.30 am start, bears, snow - you just crack on👍
It’s a pleasure watching you and Roco
wow! You've come a long way pilgrim...still see you on the bike, going "west to east".
Yay, another video! 👍👍👍
HI FORESTY AND ROCKO!! AGAIN A GREAT VIDEO WITH THE SNOW AND ROCKIES AND ROCKO SCROUNGING AROUND. SCENERIES ARE GORGEOUS. AGAIN YOUR INSPIRATION FOR A TURKEY DINNER WRAP IS LOOKING GOOD I WOULD ADD SQUÀSH AND TURNIP. THE GRAVY IS A MUST FOR ME. LOL A LARGE WRAP OR SANDWICH. FOR ME. WELL THANKS AGAIN AND STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY ❤️ 🙏
squash and turnip would add a lot of nutrition
@@Jon-jk8vd Squash and turnip sounds like a
Sasquatch Tip...
Van life is awesome now! Forget city life! Im done living in los angeles all my life, age 52 now.
That turkey dinner wrap looked so good, gave me an idea for supper thank you, safe travels🇨🇦❤️
Rocko is smart enough to realize that something was left behind (e.g. camera on tripod) during the early morning hike out.
Had the Knight Rider theme playing in my head during the start of the video.
I was so glad to see you put cranberry sauce on your wrap. It looked so delicious 😋.
Dude idk if I’m just too stoned but that thanksgiving burrito looks so amazing!!!!
Foresty got the munchies. 🤪
I love how Forest is always so obviously serious about safety while out hiking.
"No one wants to start out their summer by dying."
Thanks for the little check-in, dude! I'll keep an eye out for something down here in Washington.
Those river shots of you crossing over look pretty cool,, but all i could think of was you having to walk RIGHT back over to get the camera. And you knowingly did it, cheers for that man
Good to see the van running ..!
Fore-resty Forest....he summit's when he Can....Fore-resty Forest !! And Rocco #65....yay !!...until the next one !!
I always like your videos Mr. Foresty. Those wraps are great to. Rocko seemed to have no issues at all in your hike. :P
Probably going to grab a beer at the store. Sit in my hammock. Crack one or two open then watch this.
LOVE the care you put into every adventure & I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with the fact that you are a f a n t a s t i c story teller and videographer, however thats spelled lol - Thank you Simon & Rocko!
Best part of the week!
those opening shots were outstanding stuff, and the fungi and the hole in the log.... knocked it out the park.
That turkey dinner wrap had my mouth watering. I'm definitely trying that.
3:54 (Insane view of that STEEEEEEP mountain climb!!!Gave me the chills!!)
FF, I'm winded watching you climb that. Your stamina is top notch!
Amazing cinematography!
Glad to see you safe
That turkey wrap made my mouth water!!
It's drool boo.....
Hey , Foresty forest that was a fun video. Another amazing climb. The view from the top of the mountains was awesome. Thanks for sharing. You and Rocco you guys always make my day. Be safe out there.🇺🇸♥️🫶🙏🐾🏔️🗻🚐🇨🇦
You should write a cookbook you are a very good cook. I love snow, van life your dog. The Rocky Mountains ⛰️ 😍 The views are stunning. Thanks
Such a pleasure watching Mr. Forest on a late Friday afternoon! Thanks so much for sharing! It’s pouring rain here too! All the best!
Doesn't have to be Bigger or Longer,...anything is Perfect. Thank You.❤
The cinematography is awesome. Well done bud.
Thanks for checking in, good to see ya. Liked the different angles and shots included and really digging the art work on the inside of the van. Have a great weekend!
Knowledge of the issues w your rig is a value in itself.
I still remember the minivan.
Was that a Sasquatch footprint ?! 😅
Love your videos please be safe with the landslides and bears. Cheers !
He put up a print before and a vocalisation too . But I don't think he wants to comment. He must know as why put up a random print?
Much love from Scotland, Foresty, really enjoy your content, stay safe and your wee dog is adorable.
That edit with Rocco’s eyes was perfect
The opening scenes were beauty enough. But yes, too bad about the cloud when you reached the top Our Rockies are so majestic. Sigh.
I hope the perfect van manifests soon. You deserve it
Beautiful video and yummy food. 😋 😊
Beautiful hike! Thank you for sharing!
HEY! Hello Foresty and Rocko!!
Hello 👋
Thanks for sharing , very Beautiful scenery❤❤
Lol Rocko's eyes.. she is watching you. That wrap looks really goooooooood🤤
I was checking your page to see if there is a new video yesterday! Thanks for sharing :-)
I am so happy when I see Foresty posting a new video 😊
It's always good to hear that you and Rocko are well. Good news that your van is back to "normal". Hopefully, you find that perfect replacement one day. Until your next adventure, safe travels. BTW, those vistas of the Rockies were stunning.
You really do make wonderful videos Forest!
You did an outstanding job on that van hate to see you have to go through it again
Nice to hear from you. It has been a while. I was concerned.
Loved the mountains with the weather closing in. Thanks.
We appreciate your B roll footage fr
Thanks for the update! I was a little worried yesterday.
Stunning place to be, thanks for sharing!
Nice surprise today. Every vid is always great.
A Foresty upload always makes my day!
