Deer hunting in the ADKs is a different ball game from what I’ve seen doing my research. I didn’t grow up in a family that hunted but I love to shoot and have plenty of friends that hunt. Always say I’m gonna finally get into it next year. I did get a bolt gun. So maybe next year lol
Yeah it is! It’s a completely different level to other types of deer hunting further south but I love the challenger of it and the idea of having the skill to be self reliant in a large wilderness really draws me too it. Especially after Covid! I like the idea of knowing I can always disappear into the Wilderness if I want too
Haha cheers buddy!! Feels good to be back at it and have the time to get out regularly again! Hoping to bag a nice one before the end of the season but times running out
Cheers Darren! I love it, I actually have two now… 7mm rem mag and a 6.5 creedmoor. I mean don’t get me wrong they aren’t like family heir loom type guns but for a good all purpose all weather rifle I can beat up on a little bit it’s great
Happy Thanksgiving Rob!! I was worried you were going to take the "polar bear plunge" before New Years Day. Nest trip across tha creek, take a snorkle! Me and some friends went packing up to Chair Mountain in Colorado. A lake form between 3 peaks to make a lake, and the lake pours down the mountain make the Crystal River. The lake is 14,000 Ft ele. I only had a fishing line, were my buds had real gear to fish. I had no luck and was crossing this creek i had crossed that was about 1 foot deep, but on the way back at the end of the day i stepped off in it where i though I had crossed, wrong,, I went up to my neck is 32.099999 degree water. My toes, barefoot, literally curled up to my heal, and my lungs locked up on empty. It was that same sunset thing, and i could not see how deep it was. Please be careful, haha!
Ouch!!! Oh man that’s not fun at all! Bet it felt good on those saw muscles after hiking though right? Like those athletes that take a nice ice bath after a good work out
Happy Thanksgiving Robert kicking back with no hangover day after thanksgiving I’ve been constantly moving cause i stopped drinking 4 months now no beer on thanksgiving first time in a long time I lost 40 pounds in 2 years I’m sorry I haven’t sat back and watch anything on tv I’m sitting here thinking about what I’m thankful for I pop on the tube sitting with my boys and my dogs and who comes on my big screen my friend Robert I know you will hardly ever hear this but thank you for all the time you put in to take old fks like me on an over night journey in the bush fresh tracks he was stand there eating when you came through love you man peace n love to your family Robert Happy Holidays family
That’s ok Bob! Trust me, if not watching me equals a happier and healthier you then go for it! I’m so so happy to hear you are doing good and on the mend again. Make the most of the time you have while you can I say! Congrats Bob and tell your boys I say hello!
You’re a good man thanks for the kind words you truly are a gentleman merry Christmas camp star see in the new year Brooklyn brewing special effects hazy IPA NA bangin no alcohol delicious happy holidays
Hi. I really enjoyed this adventure of yours. You fording that river was pretty exciting as I know at least here, in the PNW (West Cascades), there's a slimy algae that covers most River bottom rocks and it's slick as snot. So you rolled the dice on that one as you could have been like Jeremiah Johnson in that scene where he fell in the river and had to dry himself out in the freezing cold - ha, ha! Anyhow, exciting to watch and you're definitely entertaining. And that ultralight tent ain't exactly a winter tent so that just made everything a little bit more dodgy... good stuff and thanks, enjoyed.
There’s the same slimy algae here too! Had to be very careful with the footing so that I didn’t slip, I actually think the smaller rocks helped. If it had been one big slab rock it would have been very hard to stay upright
I’ve just found your channel and love your content. These camping videos are just so relaxing and put me to sleep at night. Me and my friends used to all go camping and white water rafting in our younger years😂. The reason I’ve chosen to comment is because I’ve noticed you drinking water from streams ( nothing wrong with it), and in another video you’d talked about weird dreams. You may need to do a parasite cleanse. Ya know parasites can do so much damage to our bodies. In insects and even small rodents parasites are responsible for driving some of them to commit suicide. This is the case for the cricket parasite. Anyways, parasites can be killed with a good cleanse or listening to 432 hz, which is the earths natural vibration.
Glad you had the courage to comment. I think Rob has it under control, he's a woodsman. Been watching him for over a year when I can't get out myself. Please know your advice is appreciated.
Wow thanks. I never even thought about something like that. I do always boil or filter my water when drinking from any stream or body of water and touch wood have never been sick but it’s definitely something I had not consider so thank you
I was wondering at the beginning why the hell is he putting waders on , now I know 😅 . Even a small stream can be hazardous , I'm a fly fisherman and know the anxiety of crossing one . Maybe you should have use a branch to have a second hold . Glad you came out ok .
Cheers Sylvain!! Yeah it’s a little scary when it’s -4°c haha definitely not a great day to go for a swim that’s for sure. The other side was probably 3ft deep in spots
I was wondering the whole time,, if you had gotten a deer how would you get it back across the river? Glad you made it across both ways without getting wet.
Haha thanks Tony! I have a frame pack so I would have quartered it out and then picked it out on my back. It would have meant a couple of trips but it would have been worth it
I have a Tikka t3x lite in 7mm rem mag which is over kill but I bought it for hunting elk too. I had the barrel shortened to 20” to make it easier in the thicker timber

That's why they call hunting brother just like fishing
You said it!
Good to see you mate. Hope your trip to outer space wasn't too strenuous. 😁😁😁😁👍
Haha well nothings come out of me so far so whatever tracking device is in me is in there good lol
@@BrooksandBirches just please don't give birth to some slimey green critter. Not on your vids anyway.😁😁
I'm feeling the cold here, Rob, but at least we haven't had snow... 🇬🇧
I actually prefer the cold with the snow but then again they are much better equipped to deal with it here
Brother just found this video, I'm not getting notification when your videos come out, great one tho, as always, glad to see ya, thanks for doing one
Cheers harold! Good to hear from you again buddy! Hope all is well
@@BrooksandBirches Fine hope you and your family have a safe and Merry Christmas
I believe I'd camp on the truck side of the river lol...
Gobble Gobble Rob
Gobble Gobble Patricia!
Happy Thanksgiving .. great video
Same to you my friend! Cheers!
"Bordon me, Have you got any Grey Poupon."🧐
Oui monsieur! Un Sandwich tres bien 🧐
Happy Thanksgiving Rob
Cheers mate! Happy thanksgiving
Hi B&B! Love your content! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Jody!! 😊
Grey poupon,living large mate!!!
Haha I know right! Getting fancy with it
Very posh 😀 😄 🤣
Harder to cross the streams when pucker factor is involved. Good luck this season.
Hahah yeah it’s hard to move the old legs when the sphincter is contracted
You crazy man walking in freezing water
Haha some times you have to do what you have to do!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Happy thanksgiving!!
Glad to see you out and about. What ever happened to the cabin container. Happy Thanksgiving
Thanks Bella!! Feels good to be out and about! It’s still there, I’m thinking of doing a video out there next week for you guys

Hi Rob! Happy thanksgiving day! Other nice video with your adventures. Nice trip, I am sure about. Warm hug from Spain.
Wow thanks. I never even thought about something like that. I do always boil or filter my water when drinking from any stream or body of water and touch wood have never been sick but it’s definitely something I had not consider so thank you
Thanks buddy!!
Gracias Miguel!! Glad you enjoyed the adventure!
❤️🇺🇸Happy🦃Thanksgiving🥔🍗Now please score a deer remember deer jerky is delicious 😋 Best Wishes
Happy thanksgiving my friend!! I’m hoping to make some deer jerky myself this year! A friend of mine made some once that was incredible
Just came back from 4 day trip in northern Maine
How did it go???
@@BrooksandBirches awesome no buck but great trip

@@BrooksandBirches Exactly how I was thinking the scenario would have to play out.
Like the tent what brand didn't see it in description?
It’s a Marmot Eos 1p… it’s been discontinued though now
Hey Rob!
Are you anywhere near that 81” of snow? Stay safe
I’m near it but just far enough away to not have to deal with it haha! I wish I had known it was coming, that would have made an interesting video
Happy Thanksgiving! I really enjoyed this adventure.
I can make a fire colorful like a rainbow. Are you interested?
Thank you so much! That fire looks very cool
what state are you hunting in?
What brand and caliber is the rifle that you are carrying if I may ask?
I have a Tikka t3x lite in 7mm rem mag which is over kill but I bought it for hunting elk too. I had the barrel shortened to 20” to make it easier in the thicker timber
👍😐👍
