I've even got my 79 year old mum into loving your videos.
She'll say "There's nothing on Tele, put that nice young fella on that goes walking in all those lovely places"
Keep up the top work
👍👍👍
Haha that's awesome mate! Say hi to your mum for me.
@@ScottysGoneWalkabout we watched the Banjo's 1st camp trip last night.
She loved him.
Say hi to your mom for me too.
@@ScottysGoneWalkabout
Watching a few of your other videos,
have you thought about getting a G-Shock GWG-1000 watch.
It comes with a triple sensor and has
Compass
Thermometer
Altimeter and
Barometer so you can predict weather changes too.
I've got one and they're great.
I think it'd be perfect for what you do.
At least I am not the only one. Got the whole family hooked. Its a great way to just chill and watch all these stunning places you got you and let's not talk about these gourmet meals you whip you..
I used to work at the snow. One of my favourite things was going home after midnight in the dark by foot and enjoying the absolute silence, looking at the milky way on a clear night. I loved that stillness. It's just magic.
We need a Scotties gone to Tassie series….please!
I agree. There's some amazing spots down there. I need to quit my day job so I have more time haha
@@ScottysGoneWalkabout I thought you had?.
He needs to make his way to the west as well.
@@timhaynes4967 You mean quit my day job? Nah I still work as a photographer during the week. I take Friday's off to do these trips.
Tassie is very underrated
man that meal was spot on!...cheers from new zealand!
Definitely hit us with more snow camps…absolutely beautiful scenery in winter ❄️
Just discovered your videos and love them. They are good for my mental health and calm me down. Thanks mate.
Yeah, bloke. You keep churning them out, we'll keep watching. Love the diversity in your content, mate. You've motivated me to get out and do it myself before I get too old and unfit. Need some more bits and pieces before I head out, but won't be long now.
Thanks mate and that's awesome! You'll love it.
Go for it Swingsloth...he has done the same to me.
@@stevehobbs9015 which region are you in, cobber?
@@swingsloth ...we live in penrith area...don't rough it quite like Scotty...we have an old Toyota Tarago van converted for camping (only 2 seats, no passengers haha)..and we have been to a lot of spots and yet we never seem to get to the snowy mtns to actually camp there.! But trust me...the times coming. Where do you hail from mate.
@@stevehobbs9015 Brisbane. Looking for some pretty spots and think I'll be walking in to them. But getting my gear sorted still.
Really love that you acknowledge the traditional country you're on. Great video as always!
Scotty, that was bloody awesome,you have single-handedly changed my perspective of the Australian outdoors. I never imagined what a varied landscape Aussie possessed. As for your snakes that’s another issue, you amaze me how you charge through undergrowth and long grass, almost negligent of the possibility of snakes, often barefooted!!! Love your work. Cheers from N.Z.
Living the dream Scotty
bloody oath Scotty what an incredible place, nowhere else like it In the world. Snow and gumtree is a mint combo
While there's dieback around, most of the trees have died because of bushfires back in 2003 and 2019. Snow gums are very slow to grow back - you can see a lot of younger trees growing up at the moment but the bush is going to take a very long time to recover in the worst-affected areas.
I reckon a camp chair would have come in handy. Wise move not to go with a tarp set up haha. Can you pretty camp anywhere you want there? I might have to check it out.
I loved this one, so vastly different to all your other trips. In my ignorance I didn’t know Australia had so much snow but I do now thanks to you. Glad you enjoyed yourself. It wasn’t until the snow melted under your fire that you could see how deep it was. Epic, look forward to the next one. Take care, be safe. Dorset, UK
Our snowy alps get more snow that Switzerland. Where I live in NSW 2 and a half hours drive from Sydney we get mostly light snow falls over the course of our winter and we can get heavy falls that can stay around for 2 weeks in some areas.. it’s even snowed in December at summer.. 🧐🇦🇺
Not to mention Tasmania@@aussiekat6379 covered with snow right now in an area about as big as England. I remember in the 1980's driving from Moss Vale to my home in Sydney and it was snowing all the way to Cambelltown. But people do not associate Australia with snow.
We seem to be enjoying a colder than usual winter all while the Northern Hemisphere is recording record heat waves.
@@SimonBrisbane not where I am it’s very typical winter weather we get the cold days and big frosts.. only thing differently is the amount of rain and that’s only due to the weather patterns changed from being in years of drought to lots of rain.. 🧐😊
Beautiful snowy mountains and campsite. Seems odd to see snow when here in parts of the US, UK, Portugal and Spain, we are experiencing 3-digit temps and wildfires, as I'm sure you've seen on the news. I live along the shores of Lake Michigan, so thankfully, we're not having real hot weather and no fires. Your dinner with the sausage, etc, looked good and the breakfast looked even better! I could almost smell the maple cured bacon. It's my favorite. Snow and cold weather camping are my favorite kind of videos, so you can keep them coming. Do you ever do a hot tent? Take care and hoo roo!
I definitely have to wait to i get home to sit back grab a beer and see this video. Love ya work mate. ❤️🇦🇺👍🍺🍺
Yeah mate, this vid is best served with an ice cold beer haha.
Same thoughts 🍻
A tip for starting a fire on snow: Put first a base of thick branches on the snow. Then start the fire as usual on this base. Starting a fire directly on snow is extremely difficult, as you experienced. It's because the melting snow is wetting the fire starter. Cheers
Maybe just clear some snow?
@@jackiekinner3826 Yes of course, that's easier. Especially when the snow layer is thin and when the underground is even. Cheers 😀
I was worried when I saw the exped mat on the outside of your pack that you wouldn’t have enough R value under you for winter camping. Relieved to see that you also had an inflatable mat with you when you went through your gear. Good idea to use the exped to boost the R value of your other mat but also good for safety given the problem you’re having with the other mat deflating. Why don’t you have a look at the exped range of inflatable mats as a possible replacement? They’ve got some great winter options with high r values. Once again, I never cease to be impressed with your menu planning and skills in the backcountry kitchen!
Why do i always get hungry watching your flicks? Great video, our Snowy Mountains are something special...
Top video. Feel real lucky to have moved to the upper Murry at the base of those mountains.
Yeah, Great video my friend.. Good place, nice camping! Thankyou for sharing👍.. keep it up to build this channel.. thankyou my friend 👍
Scotty, we have experienced beetle die back here, in our Appalachians, breaks my heart. It takes so long to grow a tree. Absolutely excited with you. I remember my first snow hike and climb, makes me smile like a kid. Your enthusiasm is quite contagious. Thanks for sharing. Kentucky
Loved this video….just read a book by an Australian author talking about the Snowy mountains. So good so get a picture of a place I read about….keep up he good work! Also love your leave no trace policy….and your respect for the Indigenous People….Loved it!
Just spent a few day hiking in the Grampians National Park, Victoria, Australia and appreciated that I didn’t need to film or edit the hike. Easy to take for granted the time and effort that goes into your videos Scotty, keep up the good work mate. Snags and mash made me hungry 🤤
Scotty, what a phenomenal trip. I did not know there were mountain of that altitude that had snow in Australia, I always learn something from your videos! I’m from Northern Wisconsin in the US and to me Winter camping is the best. For no other reason like you stated, no bugs or other things like snakes. Please continue to winter camp, I love it and look forward to learning more about your beautiful country! God speed and happy trails.
We actually have more snow by volume than Switzerland here in Oz.
@@leylandroberts4820 that’s amazing, I feel so dumb for not knowing that! , thanks for the info
@@leylandroberts4820 Ooh that is great to hear mate!!!. I will be moving to Oz by the end of this year with my family(MEL). And we just love it here, weather included. The only thing I don't understand is why most people of other countries think AUS is just a hot desert. I think 75% of the continent experiences all the 4 seasons. Perhaps it does not snow throughout the country in winter but definitely 1 digit temps prevail like anywhere in Europe or the US and people in the southern half of AUS cities need fire-place, centralised room heaters and stuff for at least 6 months in a year, I believe.
But I'm not sure why people from other countries still don't really know about this? What would be the reason for this brother?
There's not a greater feeling on earth than walking over an untouched snow surface, seriously.
Loved the video, snow shoes where probably a bit over the top ;)
Hi Scotty, How kool are the Aussie highlands, stunning scenery, beautiful sunset and sunrise. Thanks for sharing mate.
We are blessed with an awesome country and people like Scotty showcase it to the world better than any paid tourism adverts. Just wish our population would appreciate it for what it really is. Thanks mate for the stunning shots we're so proud of what you do and how you do it... so naturally. Bushyboy Oz.
Scotty, your content is sensational, not to mention you got Kahunas the size of coconuts!!! keep up the good work
Shots, editing, sound everything here just cohesively turned this into an amazing video.
Love your work Scotty. Haven’t even seen the vid yet but I know it’s about to be a banger!
Thanks mate
i love u luke xx
and Mash
We love all your camping videos, Scotty, and this one didn't disappoint either. Magnificent scenery. Thank you and keep em coming.
Some great inspiration for winter adventures
Loved the snow camp, we definitely need to see more.
I love winter! Thanks for the snow camp-it’s a refreshing change and makes me even more ready for our winter
Always enjoy your videos mate. More of this would be great.
Yes, gorgeous snow camping and scenery 🙂❤️!!
A very pretty place Scotty, thank you, I enjoyed the video.

More,more,more, I absolutely love these little forays off into the beautiful Australian scrub...and this has been another great one mate.
Keep making these vids! I bloody love them.
How good is Australia! Thanks for showing its beauty to the world Scotty, and also showing how to respect the land we share with nature.

Absolutely beautiful. I’m glad you did it. Great video and stunning scenery.
So beautiful, what an amazing camp site
Ah this stunning land. Beautiful Scotty and lucky you had such perfect conditions. Definitely more yes!
Loved this Snowy video. You most definitely need to do more of these.Thanks for taking us along to enjoy the beauty.
That quiet stillness is amazing!
That was brilliant, thanks for another ripper video Scotty.

That was great man. Can't wait to get out for another snow mission. Your dinners always look so good 😆
Such raw beauty in the alpine region.
Loved it Scotty!!! ❤
Mate, My frothing levels go through the roof when I see a new video of yours. Always fun to watch!!
I find your videos excellent, entertaining, and calming.
So beautiful it is nice to see you camp in a different environment. Take care.
Great video mate!! Well done!!
So peaceful
Mate!! One of your shorter vids but one of my favourites. Please do another (if you can). As an Aussie it’s so mad to see a new side of camping in our beautiful country. I’m from QLD so snow camping here would be such a dream to experience. Cheers mate 👍👍
Hey Scotty, mate great video and we love your locations as well as the cookups! Thanks heaps 👍
Loved it mate, snowy back drop drop looks awesome!
Awesome Scotty, was wondering if you'd take a break over winter. Good to see this in the notifications!
Another cracking video Scotty, keep it up mate!
Would love to see more snow camps. I hadn't really thought of this as a possibility in Australia but it obviously is 🤔
Please keep them winter over nighters coming. Loving them!
Hey Scotty, awesome video! Been watching your videos for a while now and love them. This one… in the Aussie backcountry, was extra special. There’s something next level about camping in the snow, and you captured it in your video. Nice job! Look forward to the next one… get your skis and skins on and enjoy the reward of the descent!
Epic mate. Love your work, and this is one of the best. I've only been in the snow country a few times, but you've really captured the atmosphere. Your style of camping is the best imaginable way to see it. Keep up the good work!
Would love to get up to the high country in winter one day, thanks for giving us a taste of it!
I appreciate your love for the outdoors and I thank you for sharing your experience’s with all of us! Cheers from Arizona, USA!!
mate what an incredible spot! I'll definitely have to get up into the alps for some snow camping. also love that you incorporated photography into the video. what a good life you lead. thanks for inspiring us.
This was an amazing overnight camp!
*warms my Canadian heart* :)
Awesome vid Scotty. Keep the great content coming. Need to get down to Vic or Tassie for a trip, some awesome hikes down this way.
Good one Scotty, loved this episode.
Great stuff mate, so peaceful 👌👌
Best vid yet mate! Definitely on the bucket list. Well done awesome work!
Love the vid mate I am going on a snow scout hike up in the Victoria high country so this is just wot I needed
Cooking dinner is my favourite 😅😊
Totally different than what I normally see you do terrain wise. I loved it.
Man I love your vids. You always find great locations. Peace bro.
Cracker of a video Scotty, loved it dude! Cheers for making phenomenal content for us to all enjoy!
Your videos are so relaxing keep it up 👍
Magic and thank you 👌👍
Loved this video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you found a good weather window and finally got to try snow camping mate! Nothing beats the silence and those unearthly colours at dawn and dusk hey? Great video mate!
Thanks mate. I got very lucky to have perfect weather on the Friday. Nothing beats a sunny day in the snow. And yeah mate, the colours at sunset were unreal! Can't wait to head back.
Love that self made fire pit
Rad how the fire sunk down like that. 🤙🏼
