Whatever gets from a to b. Dont think that was their first rodeo. To them it was all about the adventure of the climb along with a bonus to have FF accompany them.
Foresty does not say much about where he is, other than the names of little known mountains whose names I recognized, but after a lifetime of living in BC and Alberta and studying Western Canadian geography, I can provide information to those watching around the world. This is along the British Columbia - Alberta provincial border just west of Banff and Jasper National Parks on the west (BC) side of the Rocky Mountains, in the Columbia Icefield region, the largest glacier system in the range, and it also has the largest collection of high peaks, 12 over 3300 meters / 11,000 feet above sea level, and 3 more over 3650 meters / 12,000 feet. If the mountains seem higher, it is because the valleys are very deep here, descending to around 3000 feet above sea level, or even lower. Only Mt Robson, about 150 km / 90 miles north of here, is higher in Canada's Rockies, and it is right on the Yellowhead Pass Highway #16. The east side of the Columbia Icefield is easily accessed by the world-famous "Icefields Parkway" highway which connects Banff and Jasper National Parks. There are numerous videos of it on YT, and it is very busy in summer. The west side, where Foresty is here, was inaccessible as recently as the 1970's (except by the most skilled and determined wilderness travellers, involving a week or more of travel) until the logging roads were built in the 1980's and 1990's originating in the small towns of Golden and Valemount, about 120 km / 80 miles away, one to the south and one to the north. Anyone contemplating travel on these roads should check locally first with the British Columbia Forest Service Office, some are active logging haul roads, and may be closed for safety reasons. Those that are open are very risky to travel on due to remoteness, weather, mud, floods, slides, washouts, fallen trees, un-maintained bridges, overgrown shrubbery, steep hills, potential tire punctures are all things that can affect you, and numerous bears, cougars and wolves exist, the majority which will leave humans alone if proper techniques of co-existence are followed, just as they do in the nearby National Parks. Be aware you could get trapped in a remote area and assistance could be days or even a week away by foot. Satellite phones will work, cellphones do not. There are no residents or services between Golden and Valemount, the huge Kinbasket Lake Reservoir since 1975 fills the main valley, just 800 meters / 2500 feet above sea level, called the Rocky Mountain Trench, between these towns. It is the flooded headwaters of the Columbia River, the same river that empties into the Pacific Ocean 1600 km / 1000 miles downstream along the Oregon-Washington State border in the USA. Early explorers and fur traders actually travelled to the mouth of that river at Fort Astoria in Oregon in the early 1800's from Jasper House, a trading post near the present day town of Jasper, Alberta. 00:00 - 00:10 - looking north into Jasper National Park, Jasper Park is 8800 sq km / 4200 sq miles. 00:10 - 00:40 - along the very remote Bush River Valley, just above Kinbasket Lake 03:15 - 04:35 - ascending the very remote west side of the Columbia Icefield. Most of the views look southwest. 04:38 - Mt Columbia, second highest peak in Canada's Rocky Mountains 12294 feet above sea level. You can see it through binoculars from the top of the Kicking Horse Ski Resort at Golden BC, 120 km / 60 miles away. It is not visible from highways. 04:45 - North Twin Peak in the distance, third highest in Canada's Rockies, 12085 feet above sea level, South Twin 11684 feet in front of it. This looks east into Jasper National Park. The Icefield Parkway highway is on the other side of these peaks, in a 4000 - 6000 foot high valley. 04:55 - Mt Bryce 11507 feet at left top, Bush River Valley leading to the flooded Columbia River about 50 km distant in center. 06:02 - Behind Foresty the Rockies stretch west into BC, west of the Rocky Mountain Trench and Kinbasket Lake they are called the Columbia River Mountains, better known by their sub-ranges of the Cariboo, Purcell, Selkirk and Monashees. Famous for helicopter skiing, they end about 250 km / 150 miles west of here. 07:00 - looking west to the super-remote Chaba (Indigenous People's word for beaver) Icefield. 07:23 - looking south into Banff National Park in the distance. Banff Park is 5500 sq km / 2500 sq miles. 15:00 - looking west into British Columbia. 15:05 - looking north into Jasper National Park. Foresty said snowmobiles sometimes come up here from the town of Golden, but they have to be careful not to enter the National Park, as the boundary is "hard to find". Note it's a trip for a highly expert, highly experienced snowmobile group ONLY, winter temperatures -10C to -50 C. 15:15 - looking east into Alberta where Banff and Jasper National Parks join together. Many smaller and lesser known parks join on to them. Total protected area is about 20,000 sq km / 10,000 sq miles. 15:16 - in the center is the valley holding the Icefield Parkway highway. South to Banff, north to Jasper. I lived many years in both towns working in the tourism industry, commercial and residential development is EXTREMELY restricted and controlled by the Canadian National Parks Service. People may wonder how I know all this. I study Western Canada, and have lived here all my life, now 60 years. I have hiked and climbed in many places, travelled like Foresty for many years, lived in many towns, read all the excellent guidebooks, geography books, historical books, many now out of print, that have been published for decades on this region, and studied countless topo maps for hours at a time, just for fun.
I'm sitting with a few co-workers at lunch here in BKLYN NYC and I never seen them this quiet and amazed before as we're watching your video I think you have new fans in them and that bear just wanted a autograph be safe up there we need you around for more awesome videos like this 💪👍🙏🐻🗻🚐🍲⛷️
That’s the thing about climbing/hiking-even before you take your first step, you have to understand that you have to go back, even when you make it all the way to the top! So planning your ascent and decent, are both critical. Nobody can predict where the wildlife are, especially the predators. Hiking 🥾 especially mountaineering/climbing are definitely things that require a lot of thoughtful planning.
When I saw the steepness of that climb, I immediately said “No effing way!” And you had to go through it twice?! They would have had to call the choppa to get me down 😂
The only way to avoid it doing stuff twice is to bring a handglider, wingsuit or something. But that would be pretty awesome, only downside is having to haul it up there.
Yeah same. I lived in fernie, bc and I got myself in a few precarious climbs…going up is relatively easy it’s the descent that made me think I’d die that day
Maybe not. Lots of tenderfoots trying to do what FF does and then needing to be rescued. That avalanche was impressive. At first I thought it was a waterfall. Imagine hiking with the roar of avalanches in your ears all day. Ah, the sound of late spring.
Man, Foresty's channel is real van life, outdoors and living the dream. I look at some of the other van channels and I see ridiculous animated narrative. Holding head in hand, kissing a van, pounding chest, squeaking, money grabbing live streams the day after each and every announced need to spend money on a fix or a toy. Then we have humble, active honest Foresty working hard to provide such straight up content and narrative. It's a real delight to watch all of his content.
1. Listening to Foresty's heavy breathing reveals he is human and a mountain climbing super hero. 2. I wonder what Forestry's Ma and Pa think and feel watching his videos. 3. Forestry does have the most epic van channel!!!!
You know you're Canadian when you don't think twice about driving your CAR up the side of a mountain....!! What a wonderful show, Foresty....!! Thanks man....!! You crushed it, all right.....!! 👊✊
Yes; I've noticed when he's hiking, he seems like a totally different person...he goes from being an ordinary guy, who lives in a van; to a super hero hiker out on the trail with a huge smile!!
EPIC! A few years ago footage like that would have only been possible with a helicopter crew and a huge camera. And it would have been shown on TV with lots of crap and uninteresting stuff combined. Today it takes a man with skills and determination and a good drone. Thanks for sharing all of this us!!!
WOW This is just on another level ,watching from UK . Just amazed at this vlog I don't watch regular Tv anymore but i could watch FF all day, and I'm going to watch it again . I appreciate your efforts Sir.
Wow because of you we Canadians get to see beloved parts of the country we would otherwise never get to see. Breath taking! Chills......very emotional at times.Thank you!
Your tent may have the scent of your cooking on it when you cook in your van. You might need to spray some cleaning spray on it. Bears have keen sense of smell more so than dogs. Be safe out there. 👍
There is soooo much in this video. Herd of GOATS. Bear looking for a GOAT and a nod to WhiteSnake. The drone footage and food. Legendary work! Thank you!
This is one of my favourite videos that you've done. I've watched it countless times as Mt King Edward has been on my bucket list for a while but the timing has never worked out.
Congrats on the summit, Forestry! Any one else struck by the juxtaposition of adrenaline/terror of the climb and the mundane of the return to the Ninja food to make dinner. All in a day for our buddy, FF! 😂
My days of hiking are long since past.. Mountains like King Edward were awesome to climb up, and BASE / wingsuit from. Lot easier to fly down, than to hike.. KUDOS to you FF.
A friend and I did King Ed back in Sept 1991, same approach, camped at edge of glacier, rubble slopes up mtn to summit block, then ice and rock to top. There was a register, not many entries. No drones, no Garmin, no instant weather forecast, no fancy van with a kitchen. Took kodachrome slide pics with our cameras, told a few close friends of our trip and were pretty happy about it. Those were the simple old days.
What a breath of fresh air. I'm in Southern California USA and its 105*F this week so that snowy mountain view is a welcome experience. Thanks Foresty Forest. Safe travels. P.S. I'm glad you weren't in the tent when the bear happened along.
That looked scary even on UA-cam. Sitting right up in front of a big screen adds to the effect. Definitely a twosome+ hike. Go big, or go home. Awesome.
FF: nothing in my tent just a 🐻Bear 🐻 being a ding dong. DD BEAR: I smell it! I definitely can smell it.👃🏼 It's a mixture of, chicken, spices, melted cheese and granola!! 🐻=👃🏼🤪
Force deforest you are a brave one… I was hanging by the edge of my seat watching you climb up that mountain. But once she got up there the beauty is so majestic I think this is the prettiest view you’ve ever shown us. Thanks for sharing safe travels
You should think about getting a second ice axe if you do more climbs like this one. This completely changed the feel of 50 degrees pitches for me. Thank you for the inspiration.
this is seriously one of the most visually appealing videos ive seen of a vanlifer. BC is just on another level, and FF is freaking killing it with the shots!
Congratulations on an incredible summit. I was holding my breath. Just when I thought it was over there was another trek! Every video is better than the one before. Thanks Foresty!
As usual, such AWESOME scenery and photography. Some of your climbing videos make me nervous watching, but then I am comforted by remembering two things: #2-You are smart and don’t take stupid risks & #1-You post these videos afterwards so that must mean you made it safely through!!! 😁👌🙌
First off, super amazing footage! Second, I really enjoy when you have someone along for the hike. What I think would be cool is if you do some fireside chats with friends on some episodes.
The music during the drone footage is so ROMANTIC...makes me feel young again...hahahaha. You go Foresty Forest. L♡ve the Moresty channel too. "That Bear is a ding dong" hahahahahaha
I started panicking as I watched the footage, until I realized... BECAUSE I'm able to watch the footage, it means you made it back OK!!! All was good after that... I could cheer you on and enjoy the ride, no worries... stay safe, my little Foresty Friend!!! 🥰🥰🥰
“I guess the bear was just being a ding dong” -Foresty Forest
T shirt slogan right there
🐻 smelling the Ninja Foodie steam ? ( where do you store the Tent vs. the Ninja's cooking location ?)
my canadian american dad always says that, now I know where it comes from.
That air fried Cajun Salmon Foresty cooked a few nights ago might be the residual aroma that attracted a bear connoisseur!
Here's to Foresty making a bear stew or chili like Shawn James on MySelfReliance.
Glad you are hiking this with friends. Seems safer.
Seems.
Safety in numbers
Is it? Those two seems to be no strangers to danger.
Forresty is invincible.
Those friends have probably done it before.
That was like a mini documentary.
That was good content.
The FIRST summit was like a mini documentary. Then he went up a SECOND one. Like WTF!?
Love your channel, VP!
Hey VP, maybe you could climb a fruit tree to show the fruitarian in his natural habitat, hahaa...just bustin your balls, love your videos
O
"I guess the bear was just being a ding dong".
Those wacky zany bears.
Please stay with your strict "no death" policy for the channel.
Yogi and Boo Boo strike again!!
LOL
And get that gun soon for the love of god!
@@kabukidreamboy why don't you give him yours?
Amen to That!
My jaw dropped when I saw the two guys drive up there in an old Pontiac Grand Am of all things. LOL Thoroughly enjoyed this vid FF. TY :)
Pontiac builds excitement! :D
Crazy canadians. They drive their 2 wheel drive vehicles anywhere without thinking twice
Same man I couldnt believe it
Whatever gets from a to b. Dont think that was their first rodeo. To them it was all about the adventure of the climb along with a bonus to have FF accompany them.
Dude with dreads and a sketchy car from 25 years ago...
What a terrifying start to your second century.
No kidding! Almost gave me vertigo just watching it.
At this rate #300 will be Everest from the Tibetan side lol.
Sadly we lost 2 climbers in jasper recently.
@@heykerryann I'm surprised he didn't mention the loss considering his Facebook fan page made mention of the slide.

Drone footage with the music choice makes it look like it came straight out of a planet earth documentary
it was excellent footage, particularly at daybreak

Bear wanted an autograph! 😂😆😄 He will be bragging to all the other bears that he hung out in Foresty Forest's tent.
What a nice comment! 👍
❤
Great comment. 🇨🇦✌🏽
If the ascent of that incline had some pucker factor, I can't IMAGINE how scary it was going down!
And the snow getting softer.
Exactly what what I was thinking😱
Yeah, anybody can climb up...it's the downclimbing that will kill you.
@@JeanMarie561 Me too.

FF is definitely stepping up his drone shots game.
I feel stupid for not realizing until this video how useful the drone is for wayfinding
Game of Drones.
You can actually speak directly to him, this is his channel. He’s a real human.

Imagine looking out at that view from the summit, and thinking, “I’ve climbed 100 of those”! Awe inspiring.
I think that opening sequence of music and drone shots was your best yet
The early sunlight on the mountain is spectacular
You are at the National Geographic level of cinematography.
You know you're Canadian when you don't think twice about driving your CAR up the side of a mountain....!!
What a wonderful show, Foresty....!! Thanks man....!! You crushed it, all right.....!! 👊✊
I love when he starts smiling. He only seems to do that when he’s actually climbing a mountain.
Yes; I've noticed when he's hiking, he seems like a totally different person...he goes from being an ordinary guy, who lives in a van; to a super hero hiker out on the trail with a huge smile!!
And he looks cute too

WOW This is just on another level ,watching from UK . Just amazed at this vlog I don't watch regular Tv anymore but i could watch FF all day, and I'm going to watch it again . I appreciate your efforts Sir.
Thank you, Foresty Forest for doing climbs that most of us will not be able to do!! Thank you for your recipes!!! I so look forward to your videos!!!
Wow because of you we Canadians get to see beloved parts of the country we would otherwise never get to see. Breath taking! Chills......very emotional at times.Thank you!
Getting an upload from Foresty makes my entire day lol

😀nod to WhiteSnake🤘🕺✌😎
Poor bear was so disappointed. All of that fascinating scent was nothing but an empty red sleeping bag.
Glad somebody else noticed it!
I have watched this episode 200 times. This mt put into perspective the massive scale of what you do. It's pure expansion and ice fields are glorious.
That bear sensed a trace of crockpot cooking.
This is one of my favourite videos that you've done. I've watched it countless times as Mt King Edward has been on my bucket list for a while but the timing has never worked out.
Congrats on the summit, Forestry! Any one else struck by the juxtaposition of adrenaline/terror of the climb and the mundane of the return to the Ninja food to make dinner. All in a day for our buddy, FF! 😂
Actually the hike was exhilarating but the crockpot meal takes the gold (butter).
I’m impressed that the Pontiac grand am made it
Wow...impressive opening shot!! Holy crap that climb! CRAZY amazing! “ Bear was just being a ding dong” 🤣
Getting up at 1:30 to start the hike is like
The equivalent of leaving on a road trip at midnight to avoid heavy traffic
My days of hiking are long since past.. Mountains like King Edward were awesome to climb up, and BASE / wingsuit from. Lot easier to fly down, than to hike.. KUDOS to you FF.
Foresty Forest, thank you for the fabulous gift you give us all - sharing your life and your passions. You are an extraordinary person!
"I'm really far out here right now" - man, you've been far out for some time.
Foresty Forest, you have some of the best drone footage I've seen anywhere. Superb.
Nice to see a small group adventure. Worry about you always up there all alone.
Morning Forrest!
Excellent Whitesnake reference. Love it!
Dooood that climb looked so sketchy! Glad you had company for some safety! These views just keep getting better and better! Simply breathtaking!
I miss this intro song, good one!
Summits 101 and 102 thankfully safe and sound. Thanks again FF for the beautiful content.
Holy cow man. That "Crux" climb was crazy. Massive cajones
That was an EPIC Climb . Good on you Man.
A friend and I did King Ed back in Sept 1991, same approach, camped at edge of glacier, rubble slopes up mtn to summit block, then ice and rock to top. There was a register, not many entries. No drones, no Garmin, no instant weather forecast, no fancy van with a kitchen. Took kodachrome slide pics with our cameras, told a few close friends of our trip and were pretty happy about it. Those were the simple old days.
Superb photography, good editing and production, heart in mouth, gourmet love, episode had everything
I've said it before, but I am just in awe of your cinematography. I don't know if I've seen anything as majestic and as beautiful...
One of the best episodes ever. The drone footage and pucker factor was spectacular! And that’s all Canada in the background ..... endless climbs
What a breath of fresh air. I'm in Southern California USA and its 105*F this week so that snowy mountain view is a welcome experience. Thanks Foresty Forest. Safe travels. P.S. I'm glad you weren't in the tent when the bear happened along.
I love Northern BC and the Yukon! Great shots as usual.
That looked scary even on UA-cam. Sitting right up in front of a big screen adds to the effect. Definitely a twosome+ hike. Go big, or go home. Awesome.
FF: nothing in my tent just a 🐻Bear 🐻 being a ding dong.
DD BEAR: I smell it! I definitely can smell it.👃🏼 It's a mixture of, chicken, spices, melted cheese and granola!! 🐻=👃🏼🤪
My thoughts exactly :)
What a beautiful and breathtaking images. Thank's FF for taking us on a great hike I didn't even broke a sweat 😅😅
Wow, that Drone footage is super impressive, Foresty definitely stepping up his Droning and Driving too!! Beautiful aerial footage of BC!!
Force deforest you are a brave one… I was hanging by the edge of my seat watching you climb up that mountain. But once she got up there the beauty is so majestic I think this is the prettiest view you’ve ever shown us. Thanks for sharing safe travels
Foresty comes back to the van from a summit. Opens door. There’s a grizzly bear sleeping in his bed. Get your own van you big ding dong!
I had to watch a few of your Videos today & See Snow to feel Cooler / it's 95 F today & too Hot / Thanx for the Gorgeous Videos...
You should think about getting a second ice axe if you do more climbs like this one. This completely changed the feel of 50 degrees pitches for me. Thank you for the inspiration.
this is seriously one of the most visually appealing videos ive seen of a vanlifer. BC is just on another level, and FF is freaking killing it with the shots!
Congratulations on an incredible summit. I was holding my breath. Just when I thought it was over there was another trek! Every video is better than the one before. Thanks Foresty!
The coolest thing about this excursion is Forest just laid down for a day or so, then he went down the road.
As usual, such AWESOME scenery and photography. Some of your climbing videos make me nervous watching, but then I am comforted by remembering two things: #2-You are smart and don’t take stupid risks & #1-You post these videos afterwards so that must mean you made it safely through!!! 😁👌🙌
Yeah FF! Nailed the production on this episode! The camera work is stunning!
I appreciate the music you use for the background. I've been listening to a good amount of Arc de Soleil because of you
Honestly still in awe that after all this time and I still can't believe the beauty of these mountains and views
Just living my life vicariously through Foresty Forest!
I am TERRIFIED of heights. So I'm looking through the comments while you climb 🥲 Good job Foresty, glad you and your friends made it back okay 😊
Foresty Forest that was awesome. You got friends in high places.
You are a Certified machine brother.
Two awesome days man!!! Truly enjoy your stuff. Wish I were your age...I'd be looking to join ya on these two!!! Thanks!!!!
Foresty your video quality might just be the best in the outdoors community. Really appreciate your commitment to quality!
This was probably my favorite episode to date. The drone footage was top notch!
Foresty makes his treks/excursions look like a stroll in the park. But I love it.
2 Mountain Climbs in 1 video. You’re spoiling us FF!
I am speechless. That hike and that footage was SO GORGEOUS. Wow. Just... WOW
Love the Whitesnake you slipped in there.
When you started self belaying your axe I had flashbacks to Mt Shuksan. Now my palms are sweaty. Thank you Foresty
wow just wow, congrats Simon on this amazing peak! Scenery and drone shots are stunning! 😍😍
The journey to summit 101 was some of the most stunning footage that I have ever seen! Amazing!
Such beautiful scenery and great footage.
Everything about that place is spectacular. All the work with your drone is appreciated
First off, super amazing footage! Second, I really enjoy when you have someone along for the hike. What I think would be cool is if you do some fireside chats with friends on some episodes.
Outstanding episode Forest!!! Thanks for stitching in so many views. Feels like we’re right there with you!!! Be safe out there.
What an amazing view, thanks for sharing you’re adventures with us 😍
Those avalanche remnants... holy shit!
... and the BC backcountry has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. wow
Bagging peaks 101 with Foresty. Well done, great partners. Last shot was awesome.
It's like following you to the gates of some sort of heaven up there. Fabulous videography.
6:01 Forestry Forest - "Coming up that was a clencher. That was one of the scariest things I've ever done."
Homer Simpson - "So Far."
Keep 'em coming Forest. Thanks for what you do. Like the comment " I would never do that alone". Continue to be safe.
The music during the drone footage is so ROMANTIC...makes me feel young again...hahahaha. You go Foresty Forest. L♡ve the Moresty channel too. "That Bear is a ding dong" hahahahahaha

That looked like the most hazardous mountain you have climbed so far.
I like your videos, they're very calm and relaxing. You're a very calm person and I appreciate that about you.
Quite the beautiful scenery wow!
I started panicking as I watched the footage, until I realized... BECAUSE I'm able to watch the footage, it means you made it back OK!!!
All was good after that... I could cheer you on and enjoy the ride, no worries... stay safe, my little Foresty Friend!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I'm amazed you had the energy to do that intensive cooking after! I would have just gone, soup. Soup is good, and opened a can.
He didn't cook right after he came down. He rested.
