That was a lot of mowing. I had no idea that road had to have that much work done to it. I always enjoy seeing the tent, no matter how short the video is. That is such a great retreat to own.
It looks great, Joe! Those bugs looked ferocious. Almost August now, duck season isn't that far away. You're going to be so happy you got that mowing done...
Joe, get some dryer fabric softener sheets, and place one on each side, tucked between the sweatband and your head, and they will keep the bugs away from your face, much better than insect spray. Learned this trick loading produce when I was trucking. Worked wonders.
Man... I think Joe works in a week what I have done in all my life. Love to see your daily life! I live in a big city in a small apartment, same as my parents, so I never got to experience this "country living" or however you want to call it. Love your videos sir!
I’m in Chapin SC. The humidity here is legendary. I lived in Corpus Christi Texas and 100 +++ days are normal. Yeah thats hot but Its not the same as Chapin. And a shout out to our coast people and the ‘no see ums’. (biting midgs) No place more miserable then crabbing on a salt water creek with no wind and these guys show up..
Joe, thanks for showing the editing part of you tube. many people do not understand the time and effort it takes make a video. It's not just point and shoot, every aspect needs to be pr-set and then broken down and move on to the next. Then comes the hours of editing. Maybe someone should do a start to finish of what it take to do a 30 minute video. Absolutely love your channel, stay safe and looking forward to your next endeavor. Cheers Bill
Thank you Bill. A video like this one had almost 5 hours of video that was edited down to about a half hour. I enjoy making the "mess" into a watchable and hopefully entertaining video.
I enjoy mowing the grass up to our cabin, . When I go up this week I have to to just what you did, mow the 1/4 mile driveway and trim back the brush that either came own last winter or just grew up. The township does a pretty good job keeping the road mowed but I like to widen it out some to make room for parking if needed. Sometime this summer I will also need to mow the trails in the woods. But as my wife puts it "you are retired so you have no excuses not to get it done!"
My Dad told me when he was at the house on Saturday, "there might not be much for deer, but I am really looking forward to deer hunting." I have to agree.
TY for the video. Well done. You are a hard worker using a manual saw blade for those tree saplings. I would have taken out my chainsaw blade attachment for my weed trimmer. It eats that stuff in seconds. But I do understand the simplicity / benefits of the effort.
It amazes me how much stuff joe can juggle at one time I have been watching his channel for a long time and he has always had projects going on but he has so much stuff going on with getting them cows and getting the pasture set up I would love to see a video where he spends at least a weekend at the tent just to get some recreational work done
Any day at the tent is a good day. Love the video Joe. Thinking that leaving that strip in the front uncut is going cost you neighborhood yard of the month 😂
Watched every video u have made , enjoyable to bad u can’t get a tractor with a bucket a mover and a back blade. I keep my plow on my Atv and use it to push Back the brush and grate the gravel . Take care looking forward to the next video.
Another Great video Joe. Hey don't forget some hearing protection when mowing so you can hear those deer walking this season. Lol. Love your stuff buddy!!
I have traveled through Fairbanks many times. Lots of deer along that whole area from Mackinac through Fairbanks. Have the wolves had an affect on the deer herd in that area? One time driving to The Tent I took 16 over and from 53 through Fairbanks, I counted 110 deer along that drive in the ditches. It was right after they redid that road so it was years ago and the fresh planted grass in the ditches is what they were out for.
Holy crap,how long is the driveway?? I just assumed it was shorter than that.. I guess with all them trees and bushes I don't see where you turn into the driveway from the road to the Tent..Well it was an interesting video, thanks for sharing. As always stay safe and have a great day.🤓👍🤓👍.Randy.
Always been kind of Zen, one with nature thing for me clearing brush in the UP or mowing grass. Very therapeutic. No one trying to sell me anything, no one asking me stupid questions, exhausted yet relaxed at the end of the job. Or is that just me ?
Another comment from the old peanut gallery… I wish there was more tent videos, lol I discovered Joe’s channel about 5or 6 years ago and watch the videos over and over. I do like the new stuff too. Don’t get me wrong. I get it. He’s super busy but man if I had some of that land, I think it would be hard to not be up there every weekend.
I wonder if you could get someone with a forestry mulcher to just make a pass either side the driveway to wide things out and buy you a couple seasons before it grows in so much
Get a Plastic Dragon fly and put on your Hat.Just got one !My buddies swear by them.Deer fly and horse flys are what dragon flys eat .Haven't been bitten since I put it on my hat.Dam deer flys will bight right through a bug jacket
Ticks are pretty much just here in the spring, I have not had one on me in at least 2 months. They are just ticks, not a big deal. If you get the bullseye bruise, you go to the Dr, otherwise, you are fine.
Because if one breaks down at the house, I need the other to finish mowing. Up at The Tent, I mow once or twice a year. At the house it gets mowed every week.
Joe, Wouldn't one of those brush blades for a string trimmer be faster and less work, you could also use it to blaze your trails back to your deer watches.
Joe you work so hard do you need to take a day for yourself go fishing go relax play cat looks awesome you did a good job cutting the grass trimming trees
What is the cost of crushed fine recycled concrete for your sloppy wholes in your road, it really works good after a few rains or snow it sets up tighter than a drum, just curios? Thumbs Up Guys!!!...
To get recycle up there they would be delivering from a hundred miles away. I could get gravel but only for the Tent driveway, the road to the driveway is miles long and not something I would maintain, it is National Forest property until you turn on the driveway. There are 4 holes that need to be filled on the Tent driveway and they really do need to be fixed.
Joe you cannot stack bales of hay alfalfa with a three-point hitch bail spear you need one for the front of the loader. You need to get yourself a real brush hog. And you definitely need a haircut lol
I am not, what you saw me clearing was the Tent driveway. The road before that is supposedly maintained by the National forest service but if trees are down it might take them a month to get there so I always just cut them myself. I am not going to wait to go to the Tent when I have several chainsaws.
Hey Joe. check out Blade Solution, he invented a weed eater line adapter for mowers. I can tell you that that thick weed eater line will eat bricks, at least it did 20 years ago. I don't know the guy but would love to have some for terrain like you have at the cabin....
Surprisingly enough I have a brain and use it. I dont need to watch the product videos, so i just dont watch them. Easy peasy, i always like any I watch, so know which ones ive seen.
May i ask you a ? not meant to be mean or any thing ok maybe i will learn something why do you side load your trailer the lawn mower i have always centered things so both springs and tires take the weight and it tows better .
So I can see it out my side mirror. If I center it, my truck is too tall for me to see any part of it. I need to see that it is still tied on tight or I will go crazy. Lol.
Not necessarily needs a belt , no one thinks about drive and driven pulleys , the squeaky wheel sometimes don’t need the grease …. Sometimes it needs replaced
I love to mow, I would hate for it to go much faster. If I did have a zero turn I would never bring it up there, I have ruined more lawn mower decks and blades mowing at The Tent than any other place I have mowed. Lots of rocks.
That was a lot of mowing. I had no idea that road had to have that much work done to it. I always enjoy seeing the tent, no matter how short the video is. That is such a great retreat to own.

Always good to see you up at the tent.
I really love your channel. One thing I really like are your long videos. Unlike most people only have 20-25 min, Thank you.
The cabin brings me peace to see. Missed the vids.
Man... I think Joe works in a week what I have done in all my life. Love to see your daily life! I live in a big city in a small apartment, same as my parents, so I never got to experience this "country living" or however you want to call it. Love your videos sir!
Thank you Joe for showing some Hollywood magic. It takes alot of work to make these videos. From repositioning the camera to editing. Good job.
We appreciate your hard work, Joe. Video, camera set up and download. So, thank you!
man you really did a good job on the road
Great to see you back!
great job
Thanks Joe you do so much in so little time, please take it easy and God bless you! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯
This man wearing jeans, long sleeves and a toboggan. In my world it's 98° with 90% humidity. It must be nice up there
Joe wears his long jonhs until June 1st. Lol.
He did that because of the insects. It wwas about 70 or higher I think.
I never wear anything else. Year around long sleeves and jeans.
@@shermdog6969 as soon as it hits 70, shorts, t shirt all day . none of that monkey butt nonsense

Thank you for not going up to the tent without us...I was concerned.
i find it so complete to see the grass all nice and cut
Couple weeks we are going to have to call you farmer joe.
34 days until the "cows come home." Lol.
Good to see you back at the tent!! Such a peaceful place
Loved it !!!
Editing magic within the editing magic!! Enjoyed as usual!!
Good Lad. Enjoyed, sitting on a Sunday, and watch someone working. Lot of work in short time again. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for sharing Joe.

#scag #kubota Get this man a zero turn to review, i believe he would use it. Thanks Joe. I did the same here this weekend
Mid July, .in the 60s and Joe is wearing a sweatshirt and a winter hat. I’m sweating just watching this video
I watch all the videos I just like your videos Zack’s videos to
I caught myself swatting the flies forgetting that I was watching a video,Lol. 😂
Didnt realize it took so much work keeping up the drive way. Awsome video
i would have to say this is the best job you did on the grass ever
Aaaah, the magic words we love to hear: "Let's head to the tent"
Another Great video Joe. Hey don't forget some hearing protection when mowing so you can hear those deer walking this season. Lol. Love your stuff buddy!!
I need a relax place like THAT
Everything looks great 👍
Most people would give their right arm to have a place like the tent to go to.
Hope that grass you left uncut doesnt keep you up at night, it would me...thats what nightmares are made of haha! Enjoy all your videos!
Great job looking great keep up the great work love your videos thank you
That mower has earned its keep.
i think when you cut back all the vegitation it helps with all the bugs for sure i really love the fogger
Really enjoy your videos especially when deer season rolls around, love your deer hunting videos
Joe, you need a hat that has the net attached to it....but Husband used his when he mowed lawn, so did my Grandson.
You have a Gorgeous Plot so freaking Neat! Worth It all, Thanks!... I have one in Gods Country and hope too clean it up soon, Wellsboro, Pa...
From Duluth live in California and love your vids. My deer shack near Fairbanks MN count down is on be there Nov 7

We got blue tongue in va...probably hunt late season once we get frost by dec
@@JoeandZachSurvival the wolves have crush the deer in our area for about 5-6 years. Not to many deer around anymore
Holy crap,how long is the driveway?? I just assumed it was shorter than that.. I guess with all them trees and bushes I don't see where you turn into the driveway from the road to the Tent..Well it was an interesting video, thanks for sharing. As always stay safe and have a great day.🤓👍🤓👍.Randy.
Almost a thousand feet.
Beatiful vídeo ❤
You could use a gas trimmer but replace the string with one of those stainless blades. It would take that brush right out. Glad you survived the bugs!
Love that tent site
BUGS! Horrible, Joe that's an understatement!
Always been kind of Zen, one with nature thing for me clearing brush in the UP or mowing grass. Very therapeutic. No one trying to sell me anything, no one asking me stupid questions, exhausted yet relaxed at the end of the job. Or is that just me ?
Bugs are crazy this year. Lots of standing water as well.
Can't wait to watch your duck camp video
Another comment from the old peanut gallery… I wish there was more tent videos, lol I discovered Joe’s channel about 5or 6 years ago and watch the videos over and over. I do like the new stuff too. Don’t get me wrong. I get it. He’s super busy but man if I had some of that land, I think it would be hard to not be up there every weekend.
I swear Joe.
You and that little Husky mower are doing the work of a brush hog and forestry mower!
Husqvarna... Lets get that straight. LOL. It has definitely paid for what it costed. That mower has been through hell and back.
I wonder if you could get someone with a forestry mulcher to just make a pass either side the driveway to wide things out and buy you a couple seasons before it grows in so much
Nice Load Securement!.... That's what she said!!!🤠🤠🤠
Get er dun Joe ! 🙂
You're a trooper fighting those bugs, that's for sure! They sure love the camera.
I´m always amazed at how you edit videos using a touch pad.
Thanks Joe
Get a Plastic Dragon fly and put on your Hat.Just got one !My buddies swear by them.Deer fly and horse flys are what dragon flys eat .Haven't been bitten since I put it on my hat.Dam deer flys will bight right through a bug jacket
You sure got your money's worth out of that trailer Joe!
2 videos in 2 days love it ! The first channel I ever subbed to years ago ..always been a favourite 👍 from outback Western Australia
i was just up there a couple weeks ago, they were trying to crawl into every nook and cranny of our truck.....its ridiculous how bad the bugs are!
❤
When you got there, it said 62 degrees with 94% humidity. I could never handle the humidity, especially that much.
Looks Great . Just curious , why don’t you use a string trimmer to clean up around trees, buildings etc. ? again just curious.
Because I could care less that stuff like that gets trimmed. Who is going to see it? Just people watching the videos. Lol.
I hope you did a Tick check after all that woods and cutting work Joe....
Ticks are pretty much just here in the spring, I have not had one on me in at least 2 months. They are just ticks, not a big deal. If you get the bullseye bruise, you go to the Dr, otherwise, you are fine.
@@JoeandZachSurvivalticks are not as big an issue as the media makes it seem. If you are careful and check regularly.
Joe,Been watching you guys for a while now and was wondering if you have any plans to build a cabin and when?? Great vids always.
Just a question, Joe: during the summer months, why don't you just leave one of your mowers up at the Tent?
Because if one breaks down at the house, I need the other to finish mowing. Up at The Tent, I mow once or twice a year. At the house it gets mowed every week.
A great example of property maintenance. It's not all fun and fishing.
👍👍
Nice video. Do you plan to build a cabin there on the lake.lot someday?
Joe, Wouldn't one of those brush blades for a string trimmer be faster and less work, you could also use it to blaze your trails back to your deer watches.
I was thinking a brush hog would be great for up there.
Bug's are Horable all over
🎉
Joe you work so hard do you need to take a day for yourself go fishing go relax play cat looks awesome you did a good job cutting the grass trimming trees
😎👍🏻👍🏻
Seriously Joe buy a Bug Shirt from the Original Bug Shirt Company. They keep flies and mosquitoes off you and you don’t have to smell like bug spray

Joe you cannot stack bales of hay alfalfa with a three-point hitch bail spear you need one for the front of the loader. You need to get yourself a real brush hog. And you definitely need a haircut lol
We will not bestacking the bales, I want all 20 of them in a row. That being said, I have a bucket mount bale spear coming.
@@JoeandZachSurvival Joe in the previous video you used the word stacking the bells that's why I questioned it
Not to be nosy, but how does it work that you are responsible for maintaining the road into the tent property?
I am not, what you saw me clearing was the Tent driveway. The road before that is supposedly maintained by the National forest service but if trees are down it might take them a month to get there so I always just cut them myself. I am not going to wait to go to the Tent when I have several chainsaws.
@@JoeandZachSurvival I love your videos and I appreciate you always responding to my comments. I am actually truly interested so thank you so much.

You need a wal behind or a zero turn. That mower you are using takes forever!
Walk behind
