I am old now but lived a very active life, there are those that cannot physically do this. We appreciate the content! Good job!!
Im with you partner,, grateful to still have two good eyes / ears to watch and hear this show. To be young again, I'd pay anything. God bless you my friend. Peace ✌️ from Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong
Same here.
Why does everyone on every single video make these same comments..it's burnt out, we get it and we already know on the next 20 videos it'll be the same exact feeling..You're going to burn the guy out reading the exact same comments on every single video.
@@Boga217 because any and every comment helps push his channel out to more subscribers. I’m sure he likes every comment that is made. Why be so negative? Do better
@@lisalupin1202 then just comment great video sir? Much easier and less brain frying to read.
I'm an old guy, 77 this year and have done lots of back country camping and bushwhacking. I've cooked many different animals using your pit method, my mouth watered watching how it fell off the bone. Thanks for sharing your story with us old guys who can't get out there any longer.
another old guy , ,,get rid of that heavy leaning tree by your house before it causes trouble
I love the fact that you show your triumphs as well as your failures, most channels edit out the failures. You’re rapidly becoming my favorite channel, keep up the great work. Be careful with your back though, that motor has got to weigh over 200 lbs. I had the privilege of spending a week with one of those fishery guys fishing the Nass valley, he really knew his stuff.
All this great stuff you are doing could be lost to you in one careless moment. The things you do that are unsafe make me turn away in fear. That was one. Please think first, then react.
agree - be careful with any heavy stuff; motor, logs, walls etc - if you hurt your back it will be a lifetime of pain and will severely limit what you can do
Learn to use levers, fulcrums, rollers, block & tackle for anything heavy
yes - good that you show what works and what doesn't - often something that feels like a failure is just a learning lesson
He'll be fine, he's built like a tank. Biggest issue is lack of a good women
Such a down to earth guy, I could watch Shawn all day.. 🇦🇺🐟❤
your viewers really like your videos - good honest dialog, overcoming challenges, clear objective and realistic about what you can do - you provide entertainment for others who can't do it or just like what you are doing - they have something to look forward to each week - let them help
Thanks for the words Rick.
Thanks to Reed for the windows and doors for your build. Great help.
It was awesome to get to his cabin and see his craftsmanship
Tufte is pronounced “toof-tah “ in Norwegian. Great job NOT falling in the river trying to get the motor off the boat. I was in your shoes 20 years ago on an off-grid property. It’s tough doing things solo. So much easier when you have a 2nd set of hands from time to time. Last note….STOP being apologetic for “rambling” about your future, being alone all winter, etc. It is brave to be vulnerable and talk about what you’re thinking & feeling. That’s why we’re here!
❤❤❤ exactly that your personality is y I'm here honestly, also the amazing scenery, and honestly great building... its good stuff keep it coming...
Man - you were a social butterfly this week with all those visitors!! I think getting that path completed should be your next priority giving you
Another option to get to the property!!! Keep up the great work and content!!!
dead Pine Collective great guy and great video content as well. I watch him all the time and showing the Kids the trapping ways Fanastic. 2 for 1 today in Video and great guys with great content
Thanks for the comment. I’ve had lots of new subs today thanks to Shawn!
From the viewers perspective it looks like you had a very productive week. It’s tough when you have to wear all the hats, cook, grocery hauler, forager, builder, etc. Glad you had lots of social interactions and learning about the area too. Looking forward to next week.
Truly another great post, I really enjoy your “rambling”…..haha. It’s nice to hear people just speak their minds without trying to gain anything from the people they are talking to. The cabin will come together in time.
Spend an hour a day on the trail. You also have loads of free gravel at the river to fill low spots. We are here for all of it and living vicariously through you. I’ll watch some trail building footage.
Favorite Shawn-isms.."Hey Bear..Hey"... "I'm just rambling"... Pictures and Diagram Art...
Truly can't wait till Thursday every week!!!! We're all pulling for you Shawn!!! Thank you Reed too for helping our guy!
Great video Shawn, so nice to see you smiling so much😊
It’s a pleasure to help out in any way possible. I love this channel and what Shawn is doing!
@@deadpinecollectiveThanks so much. Followed.
@@TheWestlandgirl thanks for subscribing!!!😁
Turn the fresh water spring into a Hydro power to charge your battery 🦘👍🇦🇺
You kidding? That's not rambling, it's sharing. Your hopes, dreams, plans. Ya, we wanna hear it. It's interesting. Not many of us get to see anything like this kind of life. So sharing is like... You're including us in your life. I mean that's quite a gift. Thank you. It's all fascinating! Hope you get that Tim Hortons soon! 😎 I love their coffee too here in the States.
Thanks Susan. Always keeping me up beat and positive
Excellent content on this channel. Enjoy the ruggedness, the rambling, the bloopers and the raw footage. The construction......
something for everyone on here.
👍👍
Living so many people’s dream!!
The fact that you are so welcoming will keep you from ever being to lonely. Love that you shared about the fish and how it works in your area. You give great content because you are curious and share that with us.
Each video gets better and more entertaining and adds more to the ongoing adventure. Great job Shawn!
A helicopter bringing Tim Horton's coffee would be a whole new level of door dash. Pretty great that your gracious and social nature brought you the info needed to find the spring.
I've just turned 40 this year and can tell you id rather what you're doing. You're developing the skills, making intimate friendship (not fake), taking adventures.
I really believe you'll thrive if you get a dog tho
Hi Shawn, I’m watching from Australia, 🇦🇺 Victoria. I look forward to watching another episode of you make this new cabin. You make building look easy.. and it’s not. Keep up,the good work. “ Good on ya Mate” ..lol
We watch from Melbourne too!
Mates Im in NZ watching ,have to wait till Friday to watch down under
Watching from Gold Coast Queensland. Makes me pine for a colder weather climate. The scenery in BC is just breathtaking. You’re a lucky man Shawn.
Enjoyed watching your videos. It isn’t an easy life but rewarding.
41 acres means very little when your neighbours are endless wilderness, gotta love that.
We enjoy your talks and you sharing your thoughts and feelings- often what most of us are feeling and thinking too.
Fountain of Youth, excellent, and YOU OWN IT ,, YOU LUCKY DOG. YOU'LL LIVE TO 120 EASILY. GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER
But it's doubtful you will be able to bend down and tie your own shoes. Be more careful.
Thumbs up everyone
You are my go to cabin builder, honest, hard working and earning every penny you need. I stumbled across two other builders this past week where money seems to be no object, they want and need for nothing. Stay true to yourself.
You had me absolutely pissing myself with the boat splits, we could all see it coming. I was almost expecting an Aussie narrator saying "....this is me face" from destination F*&$!?! Including this unexpected giggle, the episode further expanded the well-rounded content-showing what appears to be a natural understanding of what we viewers enjoy watching. Keeping it real and spontaneous is the bee's knees (HELLO BEAR??!). The jabbering when it happens, coupled with unprompted daily doings, are a natural, palatable combo, so common in homesteading.
Haha. Thanks BoatQuest
I really like your channel because it seems to be real. What I mean by that is you are a regular person showing your journey to pursue off grid living. There are many channels out there that feel unrealistic and phony. Thanks for portraying what it is really like.
❤❤❤ exactly this ❤❤❤
Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Enjoyed yet another video! Keep on keeping on!
I don't know what all happens in a day there as the videos jump around a lot , but what I do know is your gonna have to focus if you want the cabin finished by snow fall !! If your not going to live there in the winter and you got lots of green to spend on a room in town , then it's no problem, but if your gonna live there you better kick yourself in the ass and get going 😮 make a priority list and do them one at a time . Great video !
Said like a dad. I agree.
Haha! Tim Hortons should pay you to advertise their coffee! I'm in France, never heard of the stuff but I'm a believer now!! LOL
You're such a kind, knowledgeable and respectful human being. I don't think you'll ever be lonely because people will want to make sure you're doing okay and either come to see you or drop you a line. And that way to roast chicken, I have always wanted to try that myself. That's the way indigenous people have roasted meat for centuries. I am glad to be cooking vicariously through you! 🤣 Thank you for another excellent video!!!!
Hobo dinner (Hamburger, carrots, onions, potatoes, cabbage) can be done in a similar style (although I've only done it in foil).
= DNA MODIFIED LOSS OF MASCULINITY = PUSSY
One of the best channels on UA-cam. New Zealand Maori call that style of cooking a Hangi.. thanks for your video buddy 🇦🇺
Reed is a good dude, i have watched his channel since he got the camp what a couple few years ago!!!! He does a lot with community kids teaching them about the wilderness and teaching them about trapping absolutely awesome guy right there very few left in this messed up world we live in these days!!!!
I'm a Kiwi watching from China, love your vlogs, my mouth was watering when you pulled that chicken out of the ground, good on You, now get back to work you need that cabin watertight before the snow, and a log burner in it, so dry firewood is on our list of things to do as well 🙏🙏🙏
You're going to need a chicken coup now that you found out you can roast chickens directly in the ground. Also, a free source of eggs!
Let him finish his cabin... lol but that is a good idea just alot more work
I should take a photo of my rafters in my Florida home. The people who built the place used 20 nails on one beam that was 2 inches from the top rafter board, Not one joint is as square or jointed as well as yours. I keep saying this guy could make millions in his craftsmanship. Love the content keep it up .
Just absouloutly love this channel there is no dout in my mind this channel will grow amazeingly. I have never and will never miss a upload from him.
Shawn we have such admiration for you, your endurance & curiosity. Your channel has awesome content & you are one of our favourites now. We wish you future success & prosperity. All the best from Perth Western Australia.
Love the realness of your videos!
Loved the shot of the rain coming down off the tin roof 28:19
One of your best episodes yet. Nice you had some visitors and are able to network and gain knowledge of the area (that will pay off going into the future). Keep plugging away and keep your chin up!! Good luck with the boat motor and river transportation while the weather holds out. Nice to see subscribers slowly increasing. Best wishes from North Carolina.
North Carolina too! Catawba!
@@maggiemaysgrace practically neighbors - Valdese 🙂
I could watch your videos for ages well done.
Another amazing video. Happy you found a spring water in your property. Nice shooting practice. Chicken looks delicious. Hoping you set up your patreon so it can financially help build your driveway. Be careful lifting those heavy motor. We dont want you ruin your back. Take good care of yourself Shawn ❤
Wow, tons of activity this week!! Trapper, chopper, jet boat!!
Of course you have to go over to the family, how often are you going to get to do that. It's awesome that they knew some history and led you to discover the spring, having that is a huge bonus. You are looking really happy being out there.👍
Your title also will draw us in with words like wild was a good idea. Here's hoping you get 10,000 more views for your wild adventures. And yes we love watching your adventures.
See things are coming along find been here since the beginning and cant wait till the next on comes dont forget to check into po box keep them coming
What a way to end the video. And a spring in the property too?!?! What a win!! Kings to you man!
What a great adventure you had this week. We are glad to come along and watch with you. Awesome that you found the spring, company, and both meals looked great.
Another awesome episode. I so look forward to each and every one. Thank you so much for sharing part of your life with us.
It's fairly easy to build a pool on that spring that will hold gallons for you to scoop out with buckets at first.
Great video. I can hardly wait each week for it to air. Stay safe and keep up the good work. Thank you.
By far the best Chanel on UA-cam
I live out on 20 acres and have been thinking while watching you walk that trail that a mini excavator 25hp to 35hp with a knowledgable operator and you with a chainsaw could get an amazing amount of progress done with 7 days. I get the living remote with limited access but a time will come where you will need better access, in my opinion the sooner the better.
Couldn’t agree more, I believe a full accessible track that he can at least get the quad bike from his car to the cabin would be awesome, especially over that log/creek crossing.
Love the channel ! The red berries bush looks like "Devil's Club"! Nasty spines / thorns on the stalks, the berries are not edible (toxic), but the plant has many uses in Indigenous medicine.
Beautiful August scenery! Keep talking “rambling” as you are answering so many questions I’ve had about adjusting to your new remote life. Just amazing job. Congratulations on all the learning and discoveries.
I have been following your progress for a few weeks. I enjoy homesteading videos. I believe I have missed my window for such a life. Keep up the great content!
Let's go! Another week another video. Love your work brother. Can't wait to watch!
We love watching you, and what you have achieved an what you do. You also have just nearly given me a heart attack, I’m 65 and my husband is 76. Watching you struggle with that out board motor, thought your wedding tackle was going west. I also worry that you working to hard and don’t give yourself a break 😊😊
But don’t give up, we love watching you,but want you to survive. Find or make a trolley type thing on wheels for heavy stuff like the motor. Ann ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Ann.... 'wedding tackle' haha. Haven't heard that one before
🤩🤣🙃😊😍
Thanks for the video ! At first I wasn’t too confident that you were going to make it out there. I’m beginning to think that you are determined enough and learning what you need to do this. Excellent videos, thanks again and good luck !
That 'roast in a pit' chicken looked great 😋 well done mate 👍➡️🇬🇧
What a great video! My son had already watched it this morning and called to tell me about you finding the spring. I couldn’t wait to watch it! My daughter and I watched it sitting in her neuro oncologist waiting room! We have good news today too. Her brain MRI showed no new growth of her glioblastoma! She is only 22 and this is over share but I literally want to share it with the world! Good days for all of us! I’m excited for you about the spring! Fresh water makes many things easier. As always thanks for bringing your experience to us. That chicken looks so tender! I’m guessing the potato was pre-mashed! How was the garlic?
Hey fella, you're living my dream...I spent a winter up in Yukon...I see you have some carpentry skills..I've been a carpenter 35 years...I came across lots of bears in the foothills Ab side. You'll be fine
Keep going brother
When you go into town,get a tire plug kit for the atv. They work for cars and trucks too. Takes 5 minutes to fix the hole.
I fired the 303 as an army cadet when I was 14 , we were advised to place our berets inside our smocks to cushion the recoil !
Love the videos , keep em coming 👏👏
Another great video Shawn. It's so awesome to see you making your way. You don't seem to be surviving, but THRIVING. That chicken looked awesome, now if you just had some Sweet Baby Ray's barbeque sauce. Keep it up friend, thanks for the video.
Great series.
Just some advice from someone who has done something a LITTLE like what you are doing-make a list of all the key things you need to do on a regular basis (fire lighting, etc.) Then make sure that you have on hand multiple ways of doing that task (matches, lighters, ferro rod). It gives you more security, especially in winter.
good advice - have you GoTo ways of doing important things - but always have a Plan B and C
great episode! - looking forward to the next one. Get that sheeting on the roof so you can work in the rain... Hope you get your motor fixed.
Outstanding dinner! And keep rambling. As always see u next week!
I'm number one, love this channel man keep it going
Amazed at your building skills Shawn. Glad you are getting the odd visitor. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Chasing a childhood dream - I can relate. I like that you are honest and willing to show your failures, as well as the good stuff. Keep it up Shawn. Subscribed.
I'm new here from northeastern Ontario, and your 'rambling on' is very welcomed as you show us/ tell us the challenges that you have in your chosen lifestyle...I'm in!👍👍
Keep being yourself as you’re authentic and real cheers! 🇨🇦
Id love to see ya do some fishing perhaps catch and cook or catch and smoke!!
Hey Shawn. Really enjoy your show and all that you are doing. It's awesome. Sounds like you got a good plan. Take your time and please be safe. Damn moving that boat motor by yourself could cause injury. Take care
You're living the dream !! So fun to watch your videos !
Hello, Shawn. I was wondering how close you were to the horrific fires, but the sky looks pretty good around you. Hope it stays that way. Try some stones in your fire pit next time, and put your fire onto those, then place your chicken etc onto the stones, wrapped in the leaves and covered with soil. It may take less cooking time. In New Zealand it's known as a Hangi; and in Pacific Islands as an Umu. Look it up on the 'net'.
What a beautiful life you’re living. And that chicken looked amazing ❤
I want to see you succeed also! You are my best entertainment. I hope you get easier winter access to your property. So you could go into civilization periodically so you don’t get cabin fever.
My 2 favorite channels ,yours and of course Shawn James's "My Self Reliance".
Hi shawn I'm Al barr 80 glasgow scotland, your doing great young man keep up your content, you will be ok well better than ok, on ly advise I would give you is take all the offers you can get, this is your life's business now, people are going to reach out to you for there gains , which is yourchance to earn what you can and mist of all what you deserve, I'm a fan , lol, best of luck
17:45 Those small berries that look like raspberries on the plants with large 5 point almost maple leaf looking leaves, they're called Thimble Berries and they're delicious. i've notice the Thimble Berry bushes are all over the place in your videos
Another great episode. Wishing you the best my friend. God bless you and yours.
I envie your 40 acres up north. I live in the mtns of Colorado and the best tool I have is my Compact Kubota tractor, B7500. With the front loader and the box scrapper is has allowed me to clear my 5 acres with ease. You can do so much in such a short amount of time with a tractor. You could run a saw, a generator a pump and so much more with the power take off feature of a tractor. You work so hard, don't burn yourself out before you have a chance to enjoy your paradise..... 78 year old from Colorado..😁
Thanks Steve. I should have started with a tractor. That Kubota sounds pretty awesome!
Your videos are awesome. I love what you're doing. I look forward to every single video. They are nicely balanced in assorted content about your adventures in your area. Absolutely beautiful area. So glad you are keeping a balanced approach to things while fully enjoying your wonderful region.
You should find some milk crates and cut off one side and zip tie them together so you can put them on your four-wheeler and have pockets and nothing will fall off zip ties help out a lot
Shawn - you might want to get a portable deer hoist to lift heavy stuff - just need a nearby tree, chain the hoist to the tree - lift really logs, the outboard etc -
Or get a small block&tackle like a Tie Boss or Nifty-Lift
Agreed! Thanks Rick. Hope to get around to that sort of thing soon
In NZ we call those fire pit's a Hungi but usually done with hot rocks - less ash mess and the heat lasts a lot longer
Building a driveway is alot of work, even with equipment, I'm doing that my self right now. Great job. Keep it up.
I watch your channel too (recently discovered). Nice that you guys give shout outs to each other.
Hi ... I've watched all your videos so far... and enjoyed them all in different ways. I particularly enjoyed this one though, because I saw you having an "easier" week than many before. I really enjoy your "rambling" because you are sharing your thoughts, and feelings, good and bad, and letting us get to know you better. I'm so glad you are as welcoming and friendly as you are.... it will help you in so many ways to come. Maybe think twice about running hard through the woods though... you don't need a sprained ankle.... believe me, I sure didn't enjoy my experience of it. Best wishes. Good luck.
Great to see you making progress and the summer sunshine. I remember seeing your first video, and thought you had maybe bitten off more than you could chew, with the bush and remote country. But you have done well, so kudos. Best wishes from Scotland.
Hello Shawn, all your cooking looks yummy. I can't wait to see the cabin finished. I reckon it's going to look awesome. Just be safe walking along your trail. I worry about the bears. I absolutely love watching your videos. Lots of love, Australia Queensland ❤
The shout out of "again?!" made me laugh. Love it and this channel.
That chicken look delicious!
Great sharing♥♥♥♥Here happy watching
Good job on getting that motor off the boat! Those things are heavy as hell! There are a few times I couldn't get it done myself on my old 1990 Evinrude 2 stroke. I weighed it... it's 205lbs dry. So good job from a banked boat 🎉
