@@eyez587 Maybe for some shots. The angles and locations the camera are in would be too sketchy for a drone to hover in. Not to mention the variety of focal lengths in many of the shots and the depth of field is far to shallow to be a drone. Perhaps the more open shots are the drone. Otherwise, my bet is that he really did have to set up the tripod shots and go back to get afterwards. Xander is a man after Les Stroud.
I live in the UK, my capabilities are limited due to age and illness, thank you for enabling me to forget the world for an hour and take me to places i never have or would be able to go to, i can only imagine the behind the scenes work (placing cameras and editing) that goes into making these amazing trips come to life for us, may your channel continue to grow, you deserve every success, Thank you.
Just have to say it, what Xander did at 14:10 is why I love these videos so much! 😄In-between the beautiful nature, the cooking and everything else, you give us these gems of pure silliness and fun! Never stop being you Xander, you have a pure soul
Love this dudes pure happiness and how open he is to show his audience his personality. I’ve been watching these videos recently before bed and it’s been such a great way to finish a long day. You definitely have me excited for upcoming adventures with nature. Thank you for these videos!
There's very few people that I will watch for an hour and you are at the top. Your appreciation for the outdoors comes through loud and clear. Beautiful video man... Thank you
Xander, you and Jon absolutely kill me with the editing. You're both so funny and equally as moving with your cinematography and editing choices. Thank you for this movie and the chance to escape through your content. Cheers!
Every one of your videos/trips of recent seems to top the last. Not diminishing any of them because they’re all beautifully captured and unique in there own ways, but just wanted to say the videos keep getting better and better. A testament of your filmmaking (because honestly that’s what they’re becoming) so proud of you and your growth on UA-cam and as a person. You truly make us feel like we’re there with you Xander… along with informing us on some things we might not know. thank you for being one of my favourite creators. So glad UA-cam recommended me your channel a couple of years ago…. Cannot believe it’s been that long and I’m more immersed in your content then ever. Thanks you sir sorry for being a few days late ❤ yaba daba doo
53:32 That smile is the best part! Thank You Xander. Thank you for taking us into the wild nature Thank you for sharing your adventures Thank you for being yourself Thank you for those small sketches for laughing Thank you for the music (i always feel so small and so big at the same time when you bring in this 'song') Thank you for inspiring us to live in and for the moment! "What is better than this moment right now? Nothing"
So much respect. The skills to plan the trip, know how long it will take, know what you need, know how to make a fire, camp, fish, prepare fish, take video, process the video, do time lapses, and share your experience. Very motivational, very talented, this is just my opinion. I'm sure others share this opinion too.
Also did this route this summer and only saw one or two people at the launch. The trails were better maintained than we had expected. Those log jams really boggle the mind for how many logs get stuck there. Great job at capturing the northern lights. Thanks for sharing!
These style of videos are everywhere on UA-cam and carving out a proper niche is quite a challenge. I think adding a comedic factor to these trips have made them truly unique and joy to watch.
Apparently reading the scroll at the beginning wasn't enough for the beavers... they needed a sacrifice, you falling in was it. The ending with the drone shots, really showed how small we are in the big picture of those beautiful lakes. Thanks for the video!
I love the combination of beauty, peace and laughter in your videos. When it's done, I often have this sense of reverence, like I have just experienced a sacred moment, stepped into something so much bigger and powerful than myself and it has touched my soul. I look forward to the next one! Thank you, Xander!
Suddenly, this episode seems to be a compression of life. I'm sure it started out as a comedy genre in Diablo, but at the end, tears flowed down. the blue beautiful fish ,Mysterious Aurora ,Beaver King and Perito ,Rough Log, Lonesome Grave oh! xander!!! Your story is enriched . And I deeply sympathize with what you said" what's better than this moment right now nothing" You're telling me to be faithful to the present, right? thank you so much
Thanks for taking us along on another incredible journey. Capturing the northern lights on multiple nights was spectacular. I particularly love your sense of humor. From reading the scroll to the beaver king to your imaginary beautiful friend in the canoe. Another stellar trip. Well done, Xander. Thank you for sharing.
Cant describe how much i loved the fact that you flipped to lense to stay at the beautiful spot This just gives me that feeling of its all about the journey, not the destination. Literally fills me with joy to see you choose a beautiful spot even though its early, because thats what hiking, adventuring, survivaling and nature is about, being in the moment and no time pressure
its pretty weird how much joy and fun such videos can bring into a strangers life. The "el diablo" part kills me everytime. I hope everyone watching your videos has such a great time as me. Its just pure joy, thank you for doing this and sharing it with us! You are Awesome! Until the next time im gonna rewatch this.
As always Xander, thank you for your wonderful content. No complaints on video length. Your humor was on point with this one. It always seems to shine when you are solo.
That was a magical 55 minutes Xander, almost shed a tear with that final drone shot! Your skills as a videographer do not go unnoticed sir, some of those frames looked like a Bob Ross! Thank you for the effort you put into these and for sharing them with us
With the amount of wilderness and survival videos I watch I'm surprised at UA-cam for not recommending him earlier. My most recent but now favorite channel 💯💯💯
This is definitely one of my favorite videos. Thank you for sharing your trips with us…the peace and beauty of your journeys is inspiring and reminds us of what we miss when we make our lives busy.
Wow! Never seen such a great trip before! One hour in an absolutely wonderful land, with a man who has the right sense for it and additionally has a great hand to report it with his cam. Thank you so much for letting us participate on this phantastic trip! All the best to you for future journeys! Greets from Germany, Achim 😃🤓 👍👍👍
I was really struggling a few months ago with a heroin addiction that I’ve had for 15 years. Your videos got me thru and I’m so grateful for you and for them. I’m sober now and doing good so thank you for helping me find peace in those hard moments.
Jon taught him how to read, write and fish as well as this canoe route. Awesome Xander, you both complete it uniquely. Fantastic video both from different perspective.
I love how we can see you getting more comfortable in front of the camera and seeing more and more your personality ever video! You’re absolutely hilarious! Love the videos keep ‘‘em coming ❤
You are definitely one of the best adventure UA-camr. The quality and sound of your videos are superb and your story line are excellent. All the work for set-ups for your next shots, a lot of effort on your part. This does not go unnoticed. We love you for your excellence.THANK YOU XANDER!!!
Absolutely love your filming style and crazy sense of humor. You make being alone in the bush a pure joy. I paddle and camo alone with my dog and I love it. Keep up the great work!
It's super interesting to me when you highlight the sorta existential aspect of these trips and these videos. There's something about being isolated in that nature that points out how vulnerable we are as individuals. Separated from civilization we aren't much of anything, the strength of humans really comes from that collective our ability to do things in numbers but along the way we lose that perspective of how much smaller we are on the grander scale. Really gets the mind moving especially with your eye for cinematography.
Loved the time lapse each night, just stunning. Those log jams, wow, I’ve never seen anything like it. And you still managed to have a smile after wards. Thanks Xander another awesome video!!
Thank you so much for sharing your outdoor adventures. The camera work is fantastic and I'm loving how you feature the location along with the bits that add personality to your videos. Xander, thank you and great job!
Best outdoor adventure video content out there. Your candid honest commentary is great. Love all the interesting creative twists with different characters/versions of yourself. Videography (especially considering solo) is top notch. Thank you for your videos. You are one hardcore camper. And your videos are nothing short of fantastic.
You are without a doubt my favorite youtuber. The amount of time and effort put into ALL your videos is incredible. These last two years I've been watching you, has really changed my outlook on alot of things in life, and you are a big inspiration for me. You teach me so much, every video, about everything. Keep going, Xander, and never ever stop. Much love from Norway. :)
The more difficult the terrain and traveling/hiking, the better you feel afterward. It's rejuvenating to not constantly look at your phone as you have no service to scroll anyway. Surviving is all there is out there, your mind has a clear mission... No pain no gain. Life is the same way, no struggle no happiness.
Your sense of humor is so great, always have me laughing out loud literally. You always give us laughs, beautiful scenery, good food and lots of adventures. Stay safe out there and keep being awesome ✌️🙂 (RIP to Perrito 🐉 🪰)
I have to say this was your best one yet. I cannot fathom how much work it took to not only film but much less get through those log jams at the end. RIP Parito!
Nothing better than coming home and seeing xander has posted an hour long video. Can’t get much better than that. Especially as it has the northern lights in it !
Laying here nursing a broken collarbone and so glad I can watch your videos Xander. Got out in the woods a little bit today and found some chicken of the woods and Bears head mushroom, and finishing it off with this video really made a great day. Thank you
This video was amazing. Never a boring minute in your videos, this hour was wonderful and a pleasure to watch. I never want them to end . You show us the beauty of places a lot of us will never see. Thank you XB
Great video Xander, I can tell you put a lot of effort into the filming from the skits to the time-lapses and the amazing shots of you paddling away. It all makes my day 100 times better, thanks again :)
Been following this channel for about a year now still my favorite channel. Get extremely excited anytime I see a new video best way to start my mornings. Amazing work as always Xander 🤘🏻
Dude I admire your outdoors adventures, just your love for the environment around you and the wildlife in it is so refreshing to watch. I had a bad today and i came across your channel and it was like a switch flipped. Thank you so much🙏
That was an incredible piece of film making. To catch the atmosphere, landscapes, sky and take people with you on such an epic trip was amazing. Thank you.
I love your trips so much. I really like how grateful, happy and mindful you are in these beatiful surroundings, focusing on being in the moment as much as possible. And when that drone music kicks in, it's goosebumps everytime. I've found your content while dealing with some anxiety in my life, and I thank you for helping me to find calmness and relaxation through your content.
Thanks for sharing! We loved the lakes, the rivers, the log jams the moose the beaver, the carcass the starry sky shots, the northern light shots, the tent, bonfires the cooking and eating the catching fish the beautiful scenery... everything... it was epic! The length was perfect for us too... we like the videos to be between 40 minutes to an hour or so. This one went really fast because we loved watching you! You are so fun to watch... we're just old people and wish we could do the things you do and go the places you go; but we're stuck here so watching you do all those crazy things gives us a lot of entertainment! Thank you!
Pure beauty, Xander. Your cinematography skills are outstanding. Thanks for taking us along with you. And Patches proves herself again and again. Long may she run. 🥰
Perfect timing for a video, i just want to say thank you for everything so far Xander. I'm very grateful for the amount of effort you put into these videos.
Thank you Xander for your humble way of presenting a relaxing, refreshing, funny and inspiring adventure. Oh to have my youth back and to do what your young strong body and mind can do! Phenomenal trip and as always incredible filmmaking 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍👍
I can't stop watching your videos, they bring me so much joy. I'm a software engineer in silicon valley and my life involves spending 12 hours a day in front of a screen and I never have time to go out. These videos bring me so much calm and escapism, once my career slows down this is the kind of stuff I want to get into.
Xander, can’t tell you how much I enjoy your funky,weird, irreverent sense of humour. Makes me laugh. Really loved your night skies. Amazing. Need to learn how to film that. Most enjoyable video. Great job once more.
makes me want to go camping all the time. i love nature and these videos makes me able to experience camping when i can't go myself yet. freshmen in highschool and waiting to finish school so i can go on my own adventures. thanks for these videos!
Watched several times; seemed like different loop from Jon’s but both very enjoyable. I like your serious perspective as much as your humor. Fishing underwater videos getting much much better, and the auroras outstanding. Don’t occur this far south in Oregon very often. Thank you for all the effort involved, hope patches still has many miles/kilometers to go. Deadlifts mandatory for those portages!
I was recently blessed to find your videos Xander. Not only is the scenery absolutely breathtaking, but your witty, fun, shining personality brings me pure joy! What a treat! Thanks for being you!❤✌
Those northern lights shots were just spectacular. I can only imagine what they were like in person. Xander, your films of your trips are inspiring! I'm now planning another October trip because of you. I'm always in keen anticipation for your next one!
Thanks Xander! Great video...really appreciate the scenery you shared. I will likely never see Northern Lights in person so these shots are so valuable to me!
Your videos bring me back to my younger days! While I am still very active and doing the same things… I do them at a little slower pace with much more of an emphasis on not damaging myself. I am thrilled to see you”learn” so many valuable lessons on your journey! Please keep doing what you and so many others love. If you ever need a second paddler on a journey, give me a shout! Lol
Xander is the absolute best. I am just so impressed with this young mans abilities. Xander just seems to be a very smart, kind, and decent guy. God bless you Xander.
Just to tell you know , I'll never get bored watching an hour of your camping trip. Thank you Xander
Means alot man
Íi
My exact thoughts!!!! 💯
Agreed, short videos are nice but a longer video like this gets saved for a Sunday morning adventure with the kiddos. Cheers and thank you
Same here
The amount of times and the distance you travelled to go grab your cameras after doing the walk away scenes is admirable. Great work. 👍
Are you really an idiot? He has a drone camera.
he probably uses his drone and just flies it back to him so he doesnt have to keep going back for it
@@eyez587
Maybe for some shots. The angles and locations the camera are in would be too sketchy for a drone to hover in. Not to mention the variety of focal lengths in many of the shots and the depth of field is far to shallow to be a drone.

Well said 👌🏼
Agreed 😊
Excellent loved every moment thanks for the trip
Agree. I’ve got Lyme’s which prevents me from going on trips such as these! Thank you for taking me “along!” It is worth MORE than you know!
What a lovely comment.
Just have to say it, what Xander did at 14:10 is why I love these videos so much! 😄In-between the beautiful nature, the cooking and everything else, you give us these gems of pure silliness and fun! Never stop being you Xander, you have a pure soul
someone give this man an Oscar
20:51
35:05 😅
If I could find a friend like him, I'd never be unhappy.
An hour video on a Saturday is what I was hoping for. Thank you, Xander
Hope you enjoy
That beaver dam bit was genuinely hilarious
Love this dudes pure happiness and how open he is to show his audience his personality. I’ve been watching these videos recently before bed and it’s been such a great way to finish a long day. You definitely have me excited for upcoming adventures with nature. Thank you for these videos!
The sentiment you share about the simplicity of being in nature really resonated with me.
There's very few people that I will watch for an hour and you are at the top. Your appreciation for the outdoors comes through loud and clear. Beautiful video man... Thank you
Xander, you and Jon absolutely kill me with the editing. You're both so funny and equally as moving with your cinematography and editing choices. Thank you for this movie and the chance to escape through your content. Cheers!
Will never get tired of these hour long videos!! Can't express how grateful I am that you keep posting them!

Dude! Couldn’t explain it better , “makes it a lot easier to be present “ what its all about !
Watching your trips is inspiring , keep em coming sir
So close and connected to nature. Everytime the scene calms down I cry a little inside. Thank you Xander...
Apparently reading the scroll at the beginning wasn't enough for the beavers... they needed a sacrifice, you falling in was it.
The ending with the drone shots, really showed how small we are in the big picture of those beautiful lakes.
Thanks for the video!
Brother, it's not so much the Destination, it's the JOURNEY ! WE ARE ETERNAL BEINGS, ENJOY THE RIDE ! 👍✌️
I love the combination of beauty, peace and laughter in your videos. When it's done, I often have this sense of reverence, like I have just experienced a sacred moment, stepped into something so much bigger and powerful than myself and it has touched my soul.

I LOVE seeing my two favourite UA-camrs (Jon & Xander) do separate videos of the same routes with different perspectives and video
Wow! Never seen such a great trip before!
One hour in an absolutely wonderful land, with a man who has the right sense for it and additionally has a great hand to report it with his cam. Thank you so much for letting us participate on this phantastic trip!

This is better than Disney+ shows for silliness and entertainment. I was genuinely shedding a tear at 21:10

Love sitting down with a big plate of dinner and throwing the best show on UA-cam on. Love everything you do and how you inspire all of your fans.
Nothing better than a Xander vid to end the night - enjoyed the hour long masterpiece ⭐️
Hi Brianna how are you?
Just stumbled across your videos and now slowly working my way through. So mesmerising and relaxing watching them.
20:00 I cried. it's just so beautiful. Thank you.
This was such a great video, you put so much effort in, and it's amazing to see how high quality the production is becoming! Love ya Xander x
Thank you :)

Pure beauty, Xander. Your cinematography skills are outstanding. Thanks for taking us along with you. And Patches proves herself again and again. Long may she run. 🥰
Hi Raye how are you?
Thanks for being grateful in everything. Such a amazing guy.
Perfect timing for a video, i just want to say thank you for everything so far Xander. I'm very grateful for the amount of effort you put into these videos.
I appreciate that my friend
@@XanderBudnick No worries man! :)
The part on how its easier to be present when you are on a portage trip, really resonated with me. thanks!
Thank you Xander for your humble way of presenting a relaxing, refreshing, funny and inspiring adventure. Oh to have my youth back and to do what your young strong body and mind can do! Phenomenal trip and as always incredible filmmaking 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍👍

Hi Wendy how are you??
I’ve said it before Xander and I will again! You are truly blessed with such amazing outdoor space and wilderness
I agree
makes me want to go camping all the time. i love nature and these videos makes me able to experience camping when i can't go myself yet. freshmen in highschool and waiting to finish school so i can go on my own adventures. thanks for these videos!
I’m glad for us and you that you stopped at that beach near the start! The green sky and the mist in the morning was something else man
This was one of the most enjoyable videos I have ever seen, thank you.
This episode makes me feel like I've been in the wild and missing it.
Thank you, Xander. What good company you are. Present, thoughtful, funny, appreciative, and adventurous.
Im glad the beaver king said yes
What a journey! Poor canoe.. These longer episodes are the best. Pure meditation for us, hard work for you .. At least the portages.
Damn I love this channel. Everything from audio to cinematography to editing is just done so well. Love your humor as well!

The fun he makes on his solo trips never ceases to entertain me!! I watch because he’s such fun!
Watched several times; seemed like different loop from Jon’s but both very enjoyable. I like your serious perspective as much as your humor. Fishing underwater videos getting much much better, and the auroras outstanding. Don’t occur this far south in Oregon very often. Thank you for all the effort involved, hope patches still has many miles/kilometers to go. Deadlifts mandatory for those portages!
Really appreciated the comment and reflection on rushing. Had that same moment with myself recently.
Your adventures and filmmaking skills continue to progress. It's awesome following along with you. Thanks for your positive spirit and hard work!
I was recently blessed to find your videos Xander. Not only is the scenery absolutely breathtaking, but your witty, fun, shining personality brings me pure joy! What a treat! Thanks for being you!❤✌
Those northern lights shots were just spectacular. I can only imagine what they were like in person. Xander, your films of your trips are inspiring! I'm now planning another October trip because of you. I'm always in keen anticipation for your next one!
They were wonderful but ill admit the camera really pulls out the light and color of them better than the eye can see
@@XanderBudnick Interesting…you captured them well then! I hope to see them in person one day.
Thanks Xander! Great video...really appreciate the scenery you shared. I will likely never see Northern Lights in person so these shots are so valuable to me!
As soon as I saw your thumbnail, I knew! This is such an awesome route. Stoked you got out there to explore it
Was hoping to catch one of those massive walleyes you guys caught. Pumped to see your arctic trip :)
The last 10 seconds blew me away.
We are so tiny on this huge planet, and even tinier beyond. 😮
You sure know how to keep an audience engaged. Thanks for the great content. Look forward to future videos.
Your videos bring me back to my younger days! While I am still very active and doing the same things… I do them at a little slower pace with much more of an emphasis on not damaging myself. I am thrilled to see you”learn” so many valuable lessons on your journey! Please keep doing what you and so many others love. If you ever need a second paddler on a journey, give me a shout! Lol
Xander is the absolute best. I am just so impressed with this young mans abilities. Xander just seems to be a very smart, kind, and decent guy. God bless you Xander.
Love your videos so much man, it’s awesome to see how much your channel has grown over the past year. Well deserved
Thanks my friend
