  • I head out into the wilderness and all is well until mother nature catches our group off guard.
    We faced windy weather during the beautiful fall colors but still had a blast making delicious food over campfires and trying to catch fish for dinner.

      Good question. Some other comments talk like he isn't going to post anymore, as if somehow he said that. I don't have any social media so there is no way for me to know anything other than what he may have said on YT. If it was in this video I missed it. I thought I watched the whole thing. Ghosting is seriously depressing.

    Just wanted to stop by and say that I miss you and the Boys, and Funk, and Jake the Ski Guy and everyone else. I've been watching your videos from the very beginning. I love your sense of humor and the fact that we have a few quirks in common, which I don't often see in others. I've been watching your videos again and again, through rough times, unemployment, depression and you always managed to cheer me up. We don't know each other and never will, but I feel as if you are my friend in a weird virtual way. I wish you all the best and hope you are doing well. :)

    Hey Matt! I'm not quite sure how to start this, so I'll just say it: I don't think you understand the impact you've had on the world with your videos. I've ran into so many people on backpacking trips, canoe trips, fishing trips, etc. that have watched your content and always, ALWAYS have great things to say about it. You've made this Oklahoma boy go out and buy an UL canoe and start doing trips in the BWCA with my dog. It's a big change from my local lakes and rivers, but what an amazing journey. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for everything you've done.
    I can understand the mental break from it all. Just know that those of us that are a part of 'that' world think and care about you. Hopefully we'll see you again soon. God bless my friend.

    I return frequently to watch your videos, they are so good! I've been watching for many years and you haven't made a bad video yet. If this is the last video you ever post, I hope you will at least read all the comments that continue to be posted on your videos so you know how much you are respected and loved. Your fun nature, wonderful filming, and great editing have soothed many a rough patch over the years, providing a wholesome distraction in beautiful settings. But it's a lot of work and maybe it's not fun for you anymore and you needed to step away or move on. I just hope that's all it is and that everything is ok in your world, and you're still adventuring. So, lots of gratitude for you and love to you, Funk, and the boys. Wishing you all the best in whatever you may be pursuing now! 🤗❤🛶🏕☃❤

    Wow. A lesson learned. Don't be on the big water when a storm like that is coming. Thankfully everyone was able to get to land safely without injury or losing too much gear. Could have been much worse.
    Thanks for posting everything and putting the warning on the video so that others won't make the same mistake of judgement. Better to be safe and change plans that to discover you're in a situation where everything can go sideways in the blink of an eye. Mother Nature doesn't fool around.

      well we all know that he likes to pull stunts… and he did finish one another time for about a month a year or so ago they came back to tell us a little bit about where he been… Maybe he took off or someplace exotic and decided to stay longer this time… And he surprises when he gets back… On the other hand No this is rather long it's really not like him because you always saw attentive… However Aaron has access to his UA-cam page he said she respond to some comments on here cause he couldn't keep up with it all… And she hasn't commented either… Obviously he still has a UA-cam page… Unless for some reason there's some sort of contractual agreement or something that he can't get back in ... I don't know how you two works... But even if he wasn't out much he would still tell us look here I am at home running with my dogs and he hasn't done that either… Well it would be nice to know that he's safe… But he's not in the middle of the ocean Whole bunch of other people because they drank beer and ended up going too far downstream… But hopefully we'll find out eventually… I guess we'll all stay tuned for the further adventures… I know I intend to
