    Nothing like a rainy day, in your tent, with a cozy sleeping bag, a good book and a cup of coffee! There is no such thing as "Bad" weather!

    This is one of my favourites on UA-cam Erik. I keep coming back to this video. There really isn't any cosier place to be during a rain shower, than in a tent with a good book.

      Thanks Colman. I agree, it is very calming.

    This is one of my favourite videos from your gallery. I just love the sounds that you have captured. I'm watching this on train here in Ireland, listening with my Bose headphones. I heard a bee buzz past the opening to your tent. This is great stuff. Well done to you.

    This was the perfect balm on an overcast Pacific Northwest day. Loved every bit of it but especially your dry humor inserted where needed (minimally). Well done.

    I always think about a trip like this, Altho I don't have a kayak yet. You and a few others have inspired me to get out in the woods, i have all the gear, I just need the time. I work 50 to 60 hrs a week, and I have two kids, so I have very little time for hobbies. Thank you

    Hi Erik! Always worth waiting for and this was no exception. I find in all your videos there is just something that lifts the spirit along with some thought provoking issue. This time for me it was the wonderful sound of wind and rain on the tent and of course the twitter of new life bursting out all over the place! As for the thinking side of things I have to admit feeling a little sad at the empty settlement although the “holy coffee” moment made up for it in the long run! When you paddled away in the final shot you left me wondering when you were going to turn round to collect the camera!! Stay safe and as always thank you so much for your time. Clive

    Hey ! Says the Canadian
    You always seems to amaze me. The location, always feel to have been thru a lot of hardship, abandon most of the time, simple shot like the frame windows, the patina scorching on the wall, the sound of water, the bird shots, Great ! ''In a liter moment'' is the intro, looking all serious, stone cold Erik, our main character put on is super fashionable baby blue ''fluo'' sunglasses, i had a good laugh, sorry Erik hope you have a sense of humor ?

    I really like the way you let the pictures tell the story. Really inspiring. I also notice that you never use shots where a gimbal is needed, creates a much more pleasing experience, instead of all the pan and tilt and movements others use (myself included unfortunately).
