Our awesome Ozzie bush ghost like from those incredible fires but in true Ozzie spirit recovering and showing nature at its best. Thanks Erik and your mate for taking us along on this adventure. Great cliff shots beautiful stream super camp area sitting by a sizzling fire eating drinking and enjoying companionship in true Ozzie style. Fantastic vlog my friend keep them rolling. Bushyboy Oz.
Great to see what our Australian bush is looking like after all the fires we have had and that u have been able to have some great time out in the bush with your mate their is nothing better than camping
Another awesome video Erik, thank you for sharing. The views from the top and those rock formations where beautiful, it's good to see the trees and other flora recovering from the fires. Cheers
Ha ha, same intro music as the Demolition Ranch 🤠👍❗️ Good to see you back. Quality content as usual, good to see the mature gums getting some foliage back😯👏👏👏❗️maayyte! That first slot canyon looked dodgy AF!!😱..... so bicycle helmets were the least of your worries....😮👍.
Love it man. Sweet little alternative to the squeeze. I too have experienced the lightweight alcohol dilemma. But at the end of the day nothing beats a beer.
Another awesome adventure. Good to see you out and about exploring, sitting in front of the fire and enjoying a beer (or 3) When you were walking around the base of the cliffs I was almost expecting to see the missing girls from 'Picnic at hanging rock' wander by in the distance. :)
Great video but you are cutting them short these days !! Just walk along with it on your chest, just great to see ahead of you no need for fancy foot shots. ❤
"The view is reasonably acceptable" 🤣🤣 Omg! That ginseng spice mix is amazing on everything isn't it? I love it on a fire roasted spud smothered in butter... mmmm! You definitely made the right call on the slot canyon! PS. I know a headcam is the safest way to video it but the wobbling was making me feel a bit queezy... i just couldn't watch that bit in the slot canyon!
The ginseng spice is certainly good! Will need to try it on a spud though think that will work well. Yeah had an old GoPro on in the slot canyon that doesnt have stabalisation, hence the wobble - will relegate that camera a to time lapse duty from now. Thanks for watching Amy!
Hey Erik, as a habitual tent camper who wants to get a bit more into bushcraft, how do you pick and plan trips and routes? I usually just follow established trails that are published for major national parks around me, but I'd love to start learning how to go off track safely without blindly experimenting and ending up needing a rescue!
Hi Rob, I used to do the same, following well known trails and overtime slowly venturing to less well known / smaller trails building my skills and experience and then going off-track small distances and gradually building up from there. I found learning navigation really important, knowing how to read maps and use a compass and GPS. I spend a lot of time planning and preparing, I carry a lot of saftey gear (including a PLB and satellite messenger) and I leave detailed information with my partner of where I'm going and when I expect to be back. It's taken me ten + years to get to this level, but have loved the process and can't imagine stopping anytime soon. Cheers Erik
Nice vid, thanks :) It would also be cool if you added info on some of the basic equipment you're using (like the tarps) - you might have another equipment vid on that but would be handy to have some basic info on each trip one. And a question - what do you do for fire safety in that sort of situation? Are you just relying on grass being green so it won't escape?
Thanks - yeah it's hard to know what to cover in each video. Re tarp, I'm using an Aqua quest Safari 3m x 3m tarp and a Rab Element solo bug net. Re fire safety - we dug a small depression for the fire and while yes the grass was green, it and the ground were very very wet and there was no dead grass or leaf litter anywhere nearby. Thanks for watching
Thanks Anthony - new camera is an Olympus OMD Em1 iii, it's a nice small camera with all the features I need (AF, IBIS, flippy screen and weather sealing). Great to hear the footage is noticeably clearer. Cheers Erik
Another great trip Erik hey Adam, I remember many hikes around Wilson’s Promontory National Park with Scotch beer and Stones original green ginger wine , have you tried it, I prefer everything else but here it is ua-cam.com/video/dMLumwE_9Kk/v-deo.html this video reminds me of Grampians and Mount Arapiles in Western Victoria. Near Horsham.....enjoying your adventures thanks Erik

Thanks Ewen 👍
Wow, nice
Great to see what our Australian bush is looking like after all the fires we have had and that u have been able to have some great time out in the bush with your mate their is nothing better than camping
Indeed, not much can beat time spent camping. Thanks for watching!
Nothing like sitting around the fire, a few drinks, good food, great company. Another beautiful destination. Thanks Erik. Great video. Cheers
Another awesome video Erik, thank you for sharing. The views from the top and those rock formations where beautiful, it's good to see the trees and other flora recovering from the fires.

Some nice views there Enjoyed 👍
Gday Eric, just discovered your channel and just wanted to say thanks for the awesome vids!
Awesome mate , what a great trip and some awesome scenery. Great to see the Bush recovering 👍👍
Thanks Shad!

Thanks mate! Yeah tough to go past a cold beer around the campfire. Cheers 🍻
Well done Erick and Adam loved it!!!
Great episode Erik, beautiful bushland and spot mate. I can't wait for the restrictions to be lifted in my state so I can head back out.
A great watch as always, thanks Erik 👍, some pretty awesome scenery along the way too.
Awesome video man! Thanks for sharing
Hooray for another fantastic Erik video. Cliffs, steak and tarps... the trifecta! I couldn’t handle the Descent 20, but the Crankshaft is my fave.
Haha that's a new trifecta, but a good one! I'm partial to a Crankshaft myself. Cheers Erik
You're scaring me with that cliff walking!
Great adventu3re
♥
Another awesome adventure. Good to see you out and about exploring, sitting in front of the fire and enjoying a beer (or 3)
When you were walking around the base of the cliffs I was almost expecting to see the missing girls from 'Picnic at hanging rock' wander by in the distance. :)
Thanks mate - yeah it's that kind of country isn't it! - Was actually more expecting to be robbed by a bush ranger lol!
Great vid bud. Bummer about the flat tyre on the pushy .I was pissed can't imagine what you felt.thanks again .🙂
Ha thanks! yeah was a long slow walk back. Cheers
I can not believe you slept on a blanket, I thought in Australia everything is out to get you.
Everything is out to get you, we're Australians
I agree bro, everywhere I go I see snakes big ass ants and spiders. I’d love to sleep out on the ground but in Canada lol
Great video, those cliffs looked like stress city, amazing views though :O
Awsome video mate. Looked like a great time. The squeeze was definitely a squeeze.
Thanks mate - yeah was a tight fit all right, was cool to explore, but happy with the call we made. Cheers
Great video but you are cutting them short these days !!
Just walk along with it on your chest, just great to see ahead of you no need for fancy foot shots. ❤

What camera did you use Erik? This video was so clear, even the wife said so. Bonus footage would have been the rain on the tarp.
Thanks Anthony - new camera is an Olympus OMD Em1 iii, it's a nice small camera with all the features I need (AF, IBIS, flippy screen and weather sealing). Great to hear the footage is noticeably clearer.
Cheers Erik
hey mate what brand is that bugnet?
Hey mate - it's a Rab Element solo bug net. I wouldn't want one smaller - but it works well.
where is this?
Obviously no post lock down body with those norrow gaps in the rocks

Had to unsubscribe as you were not wearing helmets and have reported this to the police.
