Let’s just appreciate that Isabel takes “a day off” and still manages to have a vision in mind for filming, then film everything by walking many more steps than necessary, carrying around a lot of extra stuff like a drone and filming equipment, talking to the camera etc! Just wow!
Kittens...And will grow up in that loving home as fierce predators...protecting their family from damaging rodents and what not. Cats are awesome! I have a happy cat family, all spayed/neutered, that have cleared their area! Baby tigers!
Having to set up your cameras then walking a bit and having to get your camera again! I don't know how you do this! You're a Rockstar when it comes to your videos!
This hike looks absolutely gorgeous. I feel like a lot of times, cameras just dont do things like this justice... but I can only imagine how beautiful this was.
I’m an older woman with daughters a bit older than you. You’re strength and sense of adventure encouraged me to move to a farming region of Panamá. I’ve been here 3 days, so I understand that mix of fear and excitement.
i spent 10 weeks in the tres brazos area as a student at a place called kalu yala a couple years ago. i would highly recommend checking it out! it’s absolutely gorgeous and there’s tour guides based at the kalu yala camp that can take you on some amazing hikes in the area.
Isabel wants a house or studio... proceeds to build it she wants a blanket... proceeds to weave it she wants vegetables.... proceeds to grow them she wants yarn.... proceeds to spin it Goodness, she's such an inspirational and strong hard worker.
Honestly, Isabel, this is the foremost valuable, intense, stunning and lovely of all your videos. The footage you took here is among the most glorious and majestic. I have no words to describe it. Our nation is so blessed. God's creation. I stand in awe. Thank you so much for sharing your life and seeing the world through your eyes. God bless.
Your videos are so healing. I find myself waiting every week for that moment to just sit down and tune into this little piece of your world that you’re sharing with us and it feels so refreshing and inspiring. Thank you for what you do 💗
I completely agree! When Isabel uploads, I wait for a moment where I can really sit down and focus on her video, since this is the rare kind of content that I really do want in my brain
This was an actual episode of a high quality show. Like wow the storytelling and cinematography is incredible. Also, I must agree, your videos are so healing. Thank you Isabel
In September I went to my property in AZ in the middle of nowhere, incredibly remote. I was terrified as well, and trying to process the loss of my best friend a couple weeks before. It was one of the biggest challenges to drive from WA to AZ, the fears, the doubt, the anxiety, the worry, the sadness, but there was also moments of joy, accomplishment, euphoric bliss, an understanding I came to with myself, and just so many emotions to work through. We have to be there for ourselves. Trips alone in nature teach a person so much about themselves and what they truly want out of life. It's incredibly, really. I'm glad you had that experience at Blue Lake Isabel, it was very moving to see. Thanks for sharing your life and beautiful experiences with us🕊❤
One of my favorite in every vlog you do is when you talk about your feelings, your struggles, your achievements and the way you elaborate it makes us really feel you. Makes us realize that we are capable of doing things we never thought we can do. What you put in your work, life and everything bonds us... spiritually and mentally. Keep sharing...And know that we love you from the bottom of our hearts.
You inspire me to appreciate and be grateful you truly lift my spirits and you are so transparent in your truth and wisdom. You are so healthy in your head!
When I first came across you last year, when you were building your tiny house, I thought "what the??" but I kept coming back for more. You are truly an amazing, gifted, versatile young woman. At your age you have done more in your life than most people will ever do. Live your dreams.
Isabel, you make me feel like I can do anything too. We grow up limiting ourselves naturally as women to what we’re truly capable of and you’re showing the world really what we can do! Thank you for giving me the courage to know that I CAN!
Your videos are just SO calming. From the music to your voice/story telling, to your asmr and to your way of living and love for the world. It is so relaxing and very inspirational. I put your videos on when I'm at work, I put them on when I'm doing laundry and even when I'm riding in my car. I'm really happy I found your channel.
Next time, keep freeze dried fruits and veggies and your own seasoning blend with the grains and nuts of your choice. You just add water and boil; and you got yourself some wonderful meals. If you have hot cereal, you can add the freeze dried fruits. If you carry freeze dried fruits and veggies, it is much less weight to carry plus you get most of the nutritional value of the freeze dried products. It is comparable to fresh produce. Enjoy!!!🌼🌼🌈🌈🌳🌳
She says 20 miles, I reckon it was more like 40 with all that extra camera placement, bless her....huge admiration for her courage and hard work ethic. ..
@@damonsmallwood365 Yeah I have been thinking the same thing because she is so skinny and trying to do work that is for a man even average guys can't do all that work she is doing.
@@TastyFood726 Although she is very strong I can agree! I gained around 20 and am able to do way more for much longer. Feel better than ever. I was trying to operate when I was 5’7 or so at 135-140 lbs and had no clue how much bulking would benefit
your narrative approach is quite good. i dont think people realize the effort that went into your 20 second "walking segment", setting up a camera, walking your scene past it, running back and getting the camera. Going forward, setting it up, running back down, walk up acting normal, going back, getting the camera...from a professional studio/steadicam camera operator, good job.
I get so caught up with money, my job, stress, and then I watch an Isabel Paige video and all of that melts away. And I remember the best things about life. Love you girl! Thank you!
What a gorgeous video, Isabel. You are quite the woman! Even when you were tired, you had a spring in your step. Though afraid, you met the challenge and you got the rewards - not only an experience you'll remember for a lifetime, but inner clarity and understanding of what scares you, what fulfils you, what is meaningful to you. That you took the time to film this adventure gave us all a glimpse of the beautiful country we most likely will never see for ourselves. I'm sure you were happy to see your sweetie and kitties and home again. You're the best!
Just Beautiful.., it took strength in many ways for you to complete that hike. The payoff is incomprehensible!!! That lake unreal. Thanks for sharing. Keep doing you😻🤍♥️💛
You are a beautiful free spirit and being one with nature heals your soul. Nature will heal you and your hurts, never loose the sense of wonder, it has held me together for my 75 years
isabel, i would super love if we could see a "closet tour" at some point? i love your style so so much and would love to know where some of your pieces are from. anyone else?
Can't get enough of this amazing and cinematic vlog. Isabel is one content creator I mean one human that really inspires me to live life to the fullest. Love you always Isabel 😍👍🏻🔥
I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks of being alone in the woods and feels terrified, but also refreshed and alive. Thanks for being real. I’m proud of you.
What a soul-feeding journey you went on. Sincerest respect for your honesty, bravery and openness. This was truly a pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing.
I felt the same when I saw her with that huge bag in her back.. thinking ''she leave the camera, walks and then come back to pick up the camera and start all over''
I wish I could show you the mtns where we have our house in the VA Appalachian Mtns. It's totally different bc it's very lush, w/very thick foliage, & millions of trees. Only decent way to hike is to use hunter's footpaths, or those from deer, mtn lions, bears, wild turkeys, etc. Otherwise, there's so much life, & there must be a million shades of green! Wish I could upload pics! The stream behind the house has a mtn going straight up on the bank on the other side, & going last week was a real treat - took pics of natural ferns growing everywhere along the bank, & the water was rushing bc of the rains, yet you can still see the bottom, clear as day! If you don't know there's water, in pics it looks like a strange mud! Lastly, anything you plant will grow in that soil, & we mainly planted for seeds this year, but have still harvested red potatoes, 4 different varieties of tomatoes, various peppers, etc. The house is a livable gutjob right now, down the studs inside, w/intact exterior, & we're waiting for lumber to go down to get sheetrock, & wood for framing, & a new deck. It'll be great, but it's not as satisfying as you building a tiny house, & now a substantial, 2 level structure! You get to make memories there knowing YOU made it! What satisfaction that must be! I love your mtns bc you can hike. The canopy from trees is higher there, & all the open spaces are amazing:) I love your channel bc you're such a precious inspiration! Sorry so long
Yes i love the blueridge where I live. I see the mountains she experiences and seems there so much space between trees. Seems refreshing and easy to breathe. Though I love are thick green mountains
I was born and raised on the east coast my whole life and now live in Colorado for a new engineering job and I have to tell you… the west is not lush like the east coast. Not a lot of rain and there is smoke from the forest fires in California. It’s very mountain desert. I miss the lush green, dense, and large tree forests of the east. And I miss the rain and ocean. The only thing cool about being in Colorado is being able to climb to 13,000 to 16,000 ft and playing in snow all year when it’s too hot at the mile high elevations.
Imagine how happy and more beautiful the world/people would be if everyone followed this girl instead of the kardasians. What an inspiration Isabel truly is. There's nothing this warrior can't do. ❤ sending love and well wishes from ireland xox
It's just another of mother nature's experience. She'll always win and don't forget to give praise and it will pass. I have Black Bears where I'm at and they're so scared of humans.
I love your art! I am moving to a little cabin in the mountains with my daughter in just 2 weeks. We love hiking! I’m starting a small indoor garden to become more sustainable, but with the ease of not fighting the deer. Plus! It’ll grow year around! I’ve already moved my harp to the cabin. I can’t wait to play in the mountains!
Not going to lie I started watching because of how beautiful she is. But I continue to watch because this is living. So inspired to complete my projects
@@erikadee8668 nothing when u compare it to this channel lol. But I’m building an off grid van I can travel and game in. It’s been slow since I’m stuck in the matrix of working 6 days a week. And I also make custom furniture
@@tylergray1182 that’s awesome. I wish I knew how to build anything. I don’t have any excuses except that I’m a single mom and I work full time. But Isabel is such a hard worker that it makes you feel like you aren’t doing shit with your life.
@@erikadee8668 girl you are a single mom and that’s the hardest, most demanding role to ever exist. You are doing so much with your life, you just need to shift your perspective. I love Isabel because she inspires you to appreciate the good and the bad and how to see the beauty in it all, especially in simplicity. It makes me sad to think that someone would watch her and potentially feel like they and their lives are less than because they are different than hers instead of being inspired. And if you want to build; go for it. No one does anything perfect from the start, not even Isabel. Her charm is that she owns the imperfections and is grateful for the experience and improves for next time. We are all capable of all the things if you want to be. I know as a single mom, or even a mom in general, you don’t get much time to try new things but just know you’re doing so much with your life by raising the future of this world.
His creation is breathtaking! I appreciate just who he is. Your walk reminds me of my childhood home, Alaska. I miss it everyday. We drank from streams. Walked glaciers. Fished rivers. Picked wild berries. Enjoy your peace and quiet. Congratulations! You made it!
One might wonder why when you live so remotely you'd want to hike to an even more remote place, UNTIL YOU SAW THAT VIEW! Thank you for bringing us along.
Wise beyond your years. Each video I'm amazed at your abilities and drive for life. You really have a gift for telling a story and wonderful ability to communicate. Do be safe and thanks for sharing life to the fullest. Yes being grateful and present in the moment a wonderful thing a reminder we all need to have. Lonely at times for sure but isn't it special to be alone enough to take in life, nature and thoughts without distraction. Blessings to you
My best friend & I hiked the Highline Trail at Glacier National Park a couple years ago. It was the most epic hike I've ever done, but I cannot imagine doing it alone! If I'd been you, when I saw the bear poke his head out of the woods, I'd have turned on my heel and headed home.😅 I'm 47 & am in awe of your independence at such an early age! You seem pretty fearless to me!
Isabel, your are right. This is certainly your best video for the summer. We are all inspired and grateful for your efforts to reach a higher level of attainment.
@@leahl3659 yes. Most genuine RUclipsrs took many years to create cinematography skills like that. It takes training and practice to edit like this. Everyone here wants to believe a lie so they do, even though you can work out if you put two and two together. Its not negativity for me. Maybe it is for you.
@@leahl3659 Yes i think most of the people here are oblivious because they are cult like followers but only because they choose to be oblivious. Of course they don’t care, and I don’t care that they don’t care. I don’t think you are stupid. I don’t know you. Yes it’s definitely smart the way she fools others to get better content and let’s them carry on believing she is doing it.
Isabel is wise beyond her years, truly an old soul. Would love to see a book written by her about living off the land/survival guide. She reminds me of a modern day Carol from The Walking Dead.
Just discovered you. I like how you don't paint a perfect life off grid, how doing new things makes you vulnerable. I'm so glad you wear your vulnerability on your sleeve, it makes you different to other you tubers. 🙏For a great authentic channel 🇬🇧
That was awesome! I appreciate your honesty and bravery! It reminded me that sometimes scary things can not only make you appreciate your life but make you feel even more alive! Thank you for sharing your story! 😊
I’ve been super stressed lately, my life is changing in every way possible. It is so terrifying, and I’ve been depressed I’ve been trying to find a way to decompress and let go of what I cannot control. I love watching your content, it always has the ability to help me center myself and strip away the unnecessary distractions of daily life. Thank you Isabel, you are such a beautiful person.💜☀️
Your not alone!! It's OK to be afraid of change because that is how we are naturally programmed to react. Isabel's videos do the same for me. Brew some coffee, find a comfy spot, diffuse some essential oils, and systematically relax every muscle. It does wonders. Wishing you the best
Love how real she is other people only share with us good moments and make us think their life is perfect. When I first saw her videos when she was building the tiny house she was stressed and I liked how she actually shared how she was feeling.
how many extra miles do you think Isabelle walked to get all those beautiful cinematic shots for us? XD. The tenacity is inspiring! Taking a leaf from Isabelle's book, I'd like to share something I'm grateful for. 1) Isabelle's kindness for wanting to share these beautiful moments of her unique life with us. 2) not having bears in England hahaha
About double to triple what was shown in the video. You set the camera on a tripod start recording, walk away, then walk back to the camera stop the recording, pickup and carry the camera to the next location, repeat.The walking back to the camera is edited out of the video.
There is no 20 mile trail....her clothing is off. You don't hike in the Mts @ altitude w/no pack and not feel it. To my knowledge she is not a hiker ...yet she glosses over a supposed bear siting. Does she even know what to do or how to identify the bear ? Because your reaction should be very different depending on the type of bear. Check out some real hiking videos and you'll see the differences immediately. It's all fake. This stuff can be dangerous...it is how people get lost &/or die in the Mts.
I feel like the filming of the hike in this video represented the mental journey you went through. On the way to the blue lake it felt quite frantic, rushed, with an end goal in mind. The morning and the way back felt slower and more present. Loved this video, thanks Isabel.
Just absolutely stunning scenery! I live in the Appalachians and used to do what you are doing until I suffered from a series of herniated discs. I live on 10 acres and have little trails throughout and live in a tiny house. You keep going strong. Health is EVERYTHING!!!
Such beautiful scenery! When Isabel said she needs a vacation from her vacation up the mountain, the first through I had was it was a little hint that she’s planning a little get away with Hannah who appears to be on route west 💃🏼
I’m a 56 year old woman that has never been alone.. Watching this made me feel like I wish I was brave enough when I was younger. I wish I could go back :) You are such a sweet soul and so inspiring… who knows maybe I might try something like this:) 💕🙏🏻
Thanks for letting us come along with you. I smiled when you spoke of taking a vacation from your vacation. All the back-tracking to set then recover your camera, hardly counts as a vacation. Golly! You're working all the time. Again, this 78 year old guy thanks you for letting me sit here and also tagging along.
Isabel "I work 5 days and then edit for a day or two. I will allow myself to take one day off per week" GIIIIIRRRRLLL YOU ARE SUCH A HARD WORKER. What an inspiration!! JAEEZ! 💕 💪💪💪
I feel so calm after watching your videos... coming from someone who struggles with anxiety and sometimes forgets to breath. Such a breath of fresh air! Thank you for sharing your journey!
Isabel I love your steely determination and how you refused to listen to the voice in your head telling you to give up & go back. What an awesome effort. Stunning location. Well done Chica 💪
You should be so proud you’re able to do this. The fright could be the basic human instinct. It’s what keeps us alive to have a healthy fear. We’re animals and we’re trained over years of evolution naturally to be aware of an area like a dark forest where a predator could kill us (historically and now ). I do incense and self soothing techniques to remind myself I’m not in current danger. Also never hurts to be armed w pepper spray or a firearm but do what works for you! “If you’re not in your breath, you’re in your kind”
Everyone should experience this in their lifetime. We can never truly be at peace with ourselves unless you spend some time alone. Adventurous, pioneering and beautiful. Cheers Isabel!
"I need a vacation after this vacation" 😆 I love it! Gorgeous Mountain Range! The scenery...Wow! Crystal clear waters to swim in and drink from. I really need to move! 🤓
Isabel feels her way beyond fear, unburdened by the Grace in gravity. Even Bear guides her freely through endless passage of loving gratitude. Isabel is the beauty in wild lands.....❤️
Isabel, you are a very smart young women, to understand when you need to take a break and to do it is something that shows wisdom. I enjoy watching you as you live your extraordinary life.
24:03 ...my dear Isabel as long as everyone could be 10% grateful to be alive, the world would be a better place!! Happy you are.. pray everyone be too!!🙏❤️🤗
That is so true....It is the fear of something or someone harming us...being alone in nature is truly amazing feeling...modern Life fills us with more and more around us
Almost every clip of this video, I found myself audibly saying, "Wow." That environment mixed with your cinematography results in an absolute masterpiece of a video. Love your work!
@@everleigh245 Please explain. Do you think that she took a helicopter to the top of the mountain instead of hiking there, or that there was someone else with her helping her out or that it was not really ten miles to the lake. Everybody who videotapes a scene is in some way staging the performance, but does that make it less real?
@@boblacks945 - ever Leigh sits at home and make comments on her phone. She probably has never hiked in mountains - or anywhere - never mind alone. Just comments and - with no apparent credence - expects us to agree or question. I watch a couple of other vloggers who just started their channels less than 2-3 years ago and the cinematography in them is stunning. It’s a lot of work to do all that. But it’s their job. I m not surprised in the least that this thoughtful, creative young woman makes these beautiful videos.

Every story I watch inspires mz to move somewhere calm, quiet, and traquil and start my life over!!!
Great hike, wonderful cinematography but I wouldn’t hike alone especially in the mountains, lots of unpredictable predators and weird happenings. Get a satellite phone to be located just in case. The weather changes often in higher altitudes. Certainly a beautiful place to visit.😓👍👏
Such an idyllic setting and beautiful photography Isabel. So enjoy the peace and calm you share with the world. Your laughter makes me smile and recall my own youth. Thank you for taking us along! :)
Let's face it people, Isabel is not your run-of-the-mill human. I've said this in comments before, but, she truly is an amazing person. So talented, creative, persistent and every other positive adjective one could think of. I can only imagine how as she ages and lives out her remarkable life, many people will be inspired, blessed, motivated and humbled by her approach to living.
Dear Isabel, 🤗💕 Thanks for sharing your beautiful trip! I had a tear when you started singing Country Roads. I have sung that to lots of horses to help them calm and to keep myself from being tense. It has such a special place in my heart! 💕🎶 Love your videos!
I've been watching your video's for about a year & have watched every single one & love them all. Love your content, structure, personality & attitude. It's always an exciting part of my day to relax & watch. Stay Strong.
Yes it is beautiful where she is, but I agree that going it alone is not the safest. But I watch too many mysteries , will leave it at that. Be safe Isabel!
You’re doing an amazing job. One tip for next time; instead of cutting the wrap out of the window cut from the corners into center of opening and take the “points” created and bring them into the room and wrap over the 2x sills which adds a layer for any water seepage. It’s minor protection but a simple no cost extra to do.
I also get very scared alone in the forest! There is a small patch of forest in my neighborhood and whenever I try to meander through it alone, I turn back within minutes (usually at a run 😂). This was incredibly inspiring!! And those views! Just wow! 😍 Thank you for always challenging yourself to grow and then sharing it with us, Isabel! ✨💖
Let’s just appreciate that Isabel takes “a day off” and still manages to have a vision in mind for filming, then film everything by walking many more steps than necessary, carrying around a lot of extra stuff like a drone and filming equipment, talking to the camera etc! Just wow!
So true! Just wow!
She deserves an award for that alone! :)
I'm a grown man who's been a weightlifter for 45 years and she makes me feel like a baby. I love this girl.
@@tortillasarenotbiceps7622 yea ...we do too...thanks for that statement ...adds a lot of genuine and worthy perspective.
This is what I kept thinking of too. Is how tired she was but how many extra steps she was surely taking to get the camera set every time 😭
I love how the kittens just appeared one day and now they're running about with Isabel like a little tribe! So cute
They are my favorite part of her videos these days… 🤗
@@bjbernath She’s not alone 🤔 she has a boyfriend... he’s the guy helping her build.
@@bjbernath also she has her parents help! Don't forget they and she are planning on cultivating the land...such as fruit orchard. hum.
Kittens...And will grow up in that loving home as fierce predators...protecting their family from damaging rodents and what not. Cats are awesome! I have a happy cat family, all spayed/neutered, that have cleared their area! Baby tigers!

So, why don't you do the same? ;)
Our trip to Wyoming was just magical but the photos aren’t even close to what I saw with my own eyes

You are a beautiful free spirit and being one with nature heals your soul. Nature will heal you and your hurts, never loose the sense of wonder, it has held me together for my 75 years
isabel, i would super love if we could see a "closet tour" at some point? i love your style so so much and would love to know where some of your pieces are from. anyone else?
Yes!!!
The green jumpsuit!!
Yes, I’d like that too.
That cute white skirt!! 😍
@@bereal2378 maybe to share some sustainable clothing brands to support, just like she did with the Organic Basics sponsorship in this video! 😊
You are truly superhuman! Thanks for taking us on your vacation 💕 ( & loved the editing!!)
Can't get enough of this amazing and cinematic vlog. Isabel is one content creator I mean one human that really inspires me to live life to the fullest. Love you always Isabel 😍👍🏻🔥
I really like it when Isabel philosophizes, at these moments I often find a response in myself
You are wise beyond your years and every week you teach me something about life that I cherish! Once again thank you Isabelle ❤️❤️
I can watch and rewatch your videos and never get bored, they just fill me with inspiration for life ❤️
sameeeeee
I am 65 now. I did so much of this in my 20s and it is so wonderful to see these images again; thank you , Isabel
I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks of being alone in the woods and feels terrified, but also refreshed and alive. Thanks for being real. I’m proud of you.
Wonderful young lady. Wonderful mountains. Wonderful cinematography.
What a soul-feeding journey you went on. Sincerest respect for your honesty, bravery and openness. This was truly a pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Great job Isabel. I can only imagine all the work it takes to get all the angle shots you manage. Thank you. Beautiful scenery.
I felt the same when I saw her with that huge bag in her back.. thinking ''she leave the camera, walks and then come back to pick up the camera and start all over''
I wish I could show you the mtns where we have our house in the VA Appalachian Mtns. It's totally different bc it's very lush, w/very thick foliage, & millions of trees. Only decent way to hike is to use hunter's footpaths, or those from deer, mtn lions, bears, wild turkeys, etc. Otherwise, there's so much life, & there must be a million shades of green! Wish I could upload pics! The stream behind the house has a mtn going straight up on the bank on the other side, & going last week was a real treat - took pics of natural ferns growing everywhere along the bank, & the water was rushing bc of the rains, yet you can still see the bottom, clear as day! If you don't know there's water, in pics it looks like a strange mud! Lastly, anything you plant will grow in that soil, & we mainly planted for seeds this year, but have still harvested red potatoes, 4 different varieties of tomatoes, various peppers, etc. The house is a livable gutjob right now, down the studs inside, w/intact exterior, & we're waiting for lumber to go down to get sheetrock, & wood for framing, & a new deck. It'll be great, but it's not as satisfying as you building a tiny house, & now a substantial, 2 level structure! You get to make memories there knowing YOU made it! What satisfaction that must be!
I love your mtns bc you can hike. The canopy from trees is higher there, & all the open spaces are amazing:)
I love your channel bc you're such a precious inspiration! Sorry so long
Sound so lovely. There is nothing quite like VA Appalachian Mtns. Wow!
Such beautiful description. My environment is the complete opposite 😄
Yes i love the blueridge where I live. I see the mountains she experiences and seems there so much space between trees. Seems refreshing and easy to breathe. Though I love are thick green mountains
I was born and raised on the east coast my whole life and now live in Colorado for a new engineering job and I have to tell you… the west is not lush like the east coast. Not a lot of rain and there is smoke from the forest fires in California. It’s very mountain desert. I miss the lush green, dense, and large tree forests of the east. And I miss the rain and ocean. The only thing cool about being in Colorado is being able to climb to 13,000 to 16,000 ft and playing in snow all year when it’s too hot at the mile high elevations.
I also live in the Appalachian Mountains and it is beautiful here, I live where an old Cherokee Indian Chief named the place Keokee!
Imagine how happy and more beautiful the world/people would be if everyone followed this girl instead of the kardasians. What an inspiration Isabel truly is. There's nothing this warrior can't do. ❤ sending love and well wishes from ireland xox
I like both, I don't see the problem...
So true! I was reading this comment when… 17:50 “Wow, I need to be more grateful everyday for just the simple things”.
Truth!!
It's just another of mother nature's experience. She'll always win and don't forget to give praise and it will pass. I have Black Bears where I'm at and they're so scared of humans.
I love your art! I am moving to a little cabin in the mountains with my daughter in just 2 weeks. We love hiking! I’m starting a small indoor garden to become more sustainable, but with the ease of not fighting the deer. Plus! It’ll grow year around!
I’ve already moved my harp to the cabin. I can’t wait to play in the mountains!
Not going to lie I started watching because of how beautiful she is. But I continue to watch because this is living. So inspired to complete my projects
What projects are those?
@@erikadee8668 nothing when u compare it to this channel lol. But I’m building an off grid van I can travel and game in. It’s been slow since I’m stuck in the matrix of working 6 days a week. And I also make custom furniture
@@tylergray1182 that’s awesome. I wish I knew how to build anything. I don’t have any excuses except that I’m a single mom and I work full time. But Isabel is such a hard worker that it makes you feel like you aren’t doing shit with your life.
@@erikadee8668 girl you are a single mom and that’s the hardest, most demanding role to ever exist. You are doing so much with your life, you just need to shift your perspective. I love Isabel because she inspires you to appreciate the good and the bad and how to see the beauty in it all, especially in simplicity. It makes me sad to think that someone would watch her and potentially feel like they and their lives are less than because they are different than hers instead of being inspired. And if you want to build; go for it. No one does anything perfect from the start, not even Isabel. Her charm is that she owns the imperfections and is grateful for the experience and improves for next time. We are all capable of all the things if you want to be. I know as a single mom, or even a mom in general, you don’t get much time to try new things but just know you’re doing so much with your life by raising the future of this world.
@@tylergray1182 Good luck for everything!!
His creation is breathtaking! I appreciate just who he is. Your walk reminds me of my childhood home, Alaska. I miss it everyday. We drank from streams. Walked glaciers. Fished rivers. Picked wild berries. Enjoy your peace and quiet. Congratulations! You made it!
One might wonder why when you live so remotely you'd want to hike to an even more remote place, UNTIL YOU SAW THAT VIEW! Thank you for bringing us along.
Wise beyond your years. Each video I'm amazed at your abilities and drive for life. You really have a gift for telling a story and wonderful ability to communicate.
Do be safe and thanks for sharing life to the fullest. Yes being grateful and present in the moment a wonderful thing a reminder we all need to have.
Lonely at times for sure but isn't it special to be alone enough to take in life, nature and thoughts without distraction.
Blessings to you
yo i love how deep ur talks get with the camera. so honest and real.
My best friend & I hiked the Highline Trail at Glacier National Park a couple years ago. It was the most epic hike I've ever done, but I cannot imagine doing it alone! If I'd been you, when I saw the bear poke his head out of the woods, I'd have turned on my heel and headed home.😅 I'm 47 & am in awe of your independence at such an early age! You seem pretty fearless to me!
Isabel, you are truly an inspiration for those who struggle to face their fears......
13:25 absolutely fantastic shot walking along with Glacier Peak in the background !!!!! Stunning. Beautiful!
I'm impressed. You are one brave mountain warrior. One with nature.
Your world is filled with peace and harmony. Be thankful that you are fortunate enough to be able to have that. God is with you.
Isabel, your are right. This is certainly your best video for the summer. We are all inspired and grateful for your efforts to reach a higher level of attainment.
Her saying she’s barely able to carry that bag but then hiking extra to get all the filming angles of her walking…ur AMAZING haha
Dragging that ladder around was pretty awesome.
I m sure she puts the pack down to do all that extra.
That’s because she is not doing the filming herself. She misleads people that she is
@@leahl3659 yes. Most genuine RUclipsrs took many years to create cinematography skills like that. It takes training and practice to edit like this. Everyone here wants to believe a lie so they do, even though you can work out if you put two and two together. Its not negativity for me. Maybe it is for you.
@@leahl3659 Yes i think most of the people here are oblivious because they are cult like followers but only because they choose to be oblivious. Of course they don’t care, and I don’t care that they don’t care. I don’t think you are stupid. I don’t know you. Yes it’s definitely smart the way she fools others to get better content and let’s them carry on believing she is doing it.
Isabel is wise beyond her years, truly an old soul. Would love to see a book written by her about living off the land/survival guide. She reminds me of a modern day Carol from The Walking Dead.
Just discovered you.
I like how you don't paint a perfect life off grid, how doing new things makes you vulnerable.
I'm so glad you wear your vulnerability on your sleeve, it makes you different to other you tubers.
🙏For a great authentic channel 🇬🇧
So true! I find comfort in the way she portrays life so realistically with ups and downs and everything does not "look" like poetry all the time
That was awesome! I appreciate your honesty and bravery! It reminded me that sometimes scary things can not only make you appreciate your life but make you feel even more alive! Thank you for sharing your story! 😊
I’ve been super stressed lately, my life is changing in every way possible. It is so terrifying, and I’ve been depressed I’ve been trying to find a way to decompress and let go of what I cannot control. I love watching your content, it always has the ability to help me center myself and strip away the unnecessary distractions of daily life. Thank you Isabel, you are such a beautiful person.💜☀️
Sending you positive vibes and a tight hug. 💟☮️🕉
Your not alone!! It's OK to be afraid of change because that is how we are naturally programmed to react. Isabel's videos do the same for me. Brew some coffee, find a comfy spot, diffuse some essential oils, and systematically relax every muscle. It does wonders. Wishing you the best
She really does just bring you to this peaceful place of mind and allow you to forget that you aren't in a place like that for a moment.
Love how real she is other people only share with us good moments and make us think their life is perfect. When I first saw her videos when she was building the tiny house she was stressed and I liked how she actually shared how she was feeling.
how many extra miles do you think Isabelle walked to get all those beautiful cinematic shots for us? XD. The tenacity is inspiring! Taking a leaf from Isabelle's book, I'd like to share something I'm grateful for. 1) Isabelle's kindness for wanting to share these beautiful moments of her unique life with us. 2) not having bears in England hahaha
About double to triple what was shown in the video. You set the camera on a tripod start recording, walk away, then walk back to the camera stop the recording, pickup and carry the camera to the next location, repeat.The walking back to the camera is edited out of the video.
I believe it's called staging the scene.
There is no 20 mile trail....her clothing is off. You don't hike in the Mts @ altitude w/no pack and not feel it. To my knowledge she is not a hiker ...yet she glosses over a supposed bear siting. Does she even know what to do or how to identify the bear ? Because your reaction should be very different depending on the type of bear. Check out some real hiking videos and you'll see the differences immediately. It's all fake. This stuff can be dangerous...it is how people get lost &/or die in the Mts.
Those views are absolutely INCREDIBLE. I am so glad you shared this experience with us.
I feel like the filming of the hike in this video represented the mental journey you went through. On the way to the blue lake it felt quite frantic, rushed, with an end goal in mind. The morning and the way back felt slower and more present. Loved this video, thanks Isabel.
Just absolutely stunning scenery! I live in the Appalachians and used to do what you are doing until I suffered from a series of herniated discs. I live on 10 acres and have little trails throughout and live in a tiny house.
You keep going strong. Health is EVERYTHING!!!
Her backpack was ducking heavy yet she still managed to film for her audience, she's so cool
Ya i'm not so convinced. I see several clues that she wasn't as alone as she was leading on about.
@@kevind1980 why would she hide a whole person from her video 🤣 conspiracy theorist shit
@@kevind1980 When? timeline?
@@kevind1980 - what were your “clues”? Fill us in.
Such beautiful scenery! When Isabel said she needs a vacation from her vacation up the mountain, the first through I had was it was a little hint that she’s planning a little get away with Hannah who appears to be on route west 💃🏼
I had to come back a second time to watch Isabel's spectacular shots of this amazing landscape.
I’m a 56 year old woman that has never been alone.. Watching this made me feel like I wish I was brave enough when I was younger. I wish I could go back :) You are such a sweet soul and so inspiring… who knows maybe I might try something like this:) 💕🙏🏻
Thanks for letting us come along with you. I smiled when you spoke of taking a vacation from your vacation. All the back-tracking to set then recover your camera, hardly counts as a vacation. Golly! You're working all the time. Again, this 78 year old guy thanks you for letting me sit here and also tagging along.
"Growth happens when you challenge yourself and you struggle and you kind of overcome that"----- Isabel Paige
Isabel Page is simply marvellous.🕊️
Isabel "I work 5 days and then edit for a day or two. I will allow myself to take one day off per week" GIIIIIRRRRLLL YOU ARE SUCH A HARD WORKER. What an inspiration!! JAEEZ! 💕 💪💪💪
I feel so calm after watching your videos... coming from someone who struggles with anxiety and sometimes forgets to breath. Such a breath of fresh air! Thank you for sharing your journey!
Isabel I love your steely determination and how you refused to listen to the voice in your head telling you to give up & go back. What an awesome effort. Stunning location. Well done Chica 💪
You should be so proud you’re able to do this.
The fright could be the basic human instinct. It’s what keeps us alive to have a healthy fear. We’re animals and we’re trained over years of evolution naturally to be aware of an area like a dark forest where a predator could kill us (historically and now ).
I do incense and self soothing techniques to remind myself I’m not in current danger. Also never hurts to be armed w pepper spray or a firearm but do what works for you!
“If you’re not in your breath, you’re in your kind”
Everyone should experience this in their lifetime. We can never truly be at peace with ourselves unless you spend some time alone. Adventurous, pioneering and beautiful. Cheers Isabel!
"I need a vacation after this vacation" 😆 I love it! Gorgeous Mountain Range! The scenery...Wow! Crystal clear waters to swim in and drink from. I really need to move! 🤓
This makes me want to move so much closer to the mountains and alpine lakes, what an incredible job at capturing its beauty!
You are such an inspiration for sure. Thank you for taking us with you into your world and for the truthfulness you share. So much love to you.
Isabel feels her way beyond fear, unburdened by the Grace in gravity. Even Bear guides her freely through endless passage of loving gratitude. Isabel is the beauty in wild lands.....❤️
I’m so impressed honestly! I dream of being strong and capable like this!
Me too
If you can dream it....you can do it.
You are!
Isabel, you are a very smart young women, to understand when you need to take a break and to do it is something that shows wisdom. I enjoy watching you as you live your extraordinary life.
Thank you for always sharing your truth in such a beautiful and vulnerable way. Your videos are so beautiful and resonate deeply.
The landscape you walked trough is amazing, the colors , the color of the lake.
24:03 ...my dear Isabel as long as everyone could be 10% grateful to be alive, the world would be a better place!! Happy you are.. pray everyone be too!!🙏❤️🤗
“You’re not afraid of being alone in the woods. You’re afraid that you might not be.”
Butchered the quote but it still makes sense I think.
Love that!
Exactly 🙌🏻
That is so true....It is the fear of something or someone harming us...being alone in nature is truly amazing feeling...modern Life fills us with more and more around us
Almost every clip of this video, I found myself audibly saying, "Wow." That environment mixed with your cinematography results in an absolute masterpiece of a video. Love your work!
OMG, the scenery is unreal. Absolutely stunning. Fairytale.
Breathtaking nature, seriously, Earth is so beautiful! Thank you, Isabel, for going on this hike and taking us with you :)
I just have to say I don’t understand how she doesn’t get lost! I feel like I would be lost in the minute I couldn’t see my car!
I guess that one of her many skills is map-reading. Plus, she did meet some hikers along the way.
I lose my car in the smallest of car parks.xxx
Staged
@@everleigh245 Please explain. Do you think that she took a helicopter to the top of the mountain instead of hiking there, or that there was someone else with her helping her out or that it was not really ten miles to the lake. Everybody who videotapes a scene is in some way staging the performance, but does that make it less real?
@@boblacks945 - ever Leigh sits at home and make comments on her phone. She probably has never hiked in mountains - or anywhere - never mind alone. Just comments and - with no apparent credence - expects us to agree or question. I watch a couple of other vloggers who just started their channels less than 2-3 years ago and the cinematography in them is stunning. It’s a lot of work to do all that. But it’s their job. I m not surprised in the least that this thoughtful, creative young woman makes these beautiful videos.
Every story I watch inspires mz to move somewhere calm, quiet, and traquil and start my life over!!!
Great hike, wonderful cinematography but I wouldn’t hike alone especially in the mountains, lots of unpredictable predators and weird happenings. Get a satellite phone to be located just in case. The weather changes often in higher altitudes. Certainly a beautiful place to visit.😓👍👏
This is such an inspiration.
I’ve been mulling over the idea of a solo, two day backpack trip but quickly get discouraged.
Such an idyllic setting and beautiful photography Isabel. So enjoy the peace and calm you share with the world. Your laughter makes me smile and recall my own youth. Thank you for taking us along! :)
Let's face it people, Isabel is not your run-of-the-mill human. I've said this in comments before, but, she truly is an amazing person. So talented, creative, persistent and every other positive adjective one could think of. I can only imagine how as she ages and lives out her remarkable life, many people will be inspired, blessed, motivated and humbled by her approach to living.
I love hiking and camping. You have shared some very beautiful scenery. Where i wish I could live.
This is extraordinary. I was simply in awe as I watched. Thank you so much, Isabel.
Dear Isabel, 🤗💕
Thanks for sharing your beautiful trip! I had a tear when you started singing Country Roads. I have sung that to lots of horses to help them calm and to keep myself from being tense. It has such a special place in my heart! 💕🎶 Love your videos!
I've been watching your video's for about a year & have watched every single one & love them all. Love your content, structure, personality & attitude. It's always an exciting part of my day to relax & watch. Stay Strong.
The thought of being in the mountains alone day or night is beyond terrifying. I 'm afraid to take my dog out at night in my own yard. 😆
Yes it is beautiful where she is, but I agree that going it alone is not the safest. But I watch too many mysteries , will leave it at that. Be safe Isabel!
Thank you again Isabel Paige💜
Your vlogs give me peace.
You’re doing an amazing job.
One tip for next time; instead of cutting the wrap out of the window cut from the corners into center of opening and take the “points” created and bring them into the room and wrap over the 2x sills which adds a layer for any water seepage.
It’s minor protection but a simple no cost extra to do.
BRAVO! Excellent VLOG! Thanks for sharing Blue Lake! It was breathtaking.
I also get very scared alone in the forest! There is a small patch of forest in my neighborhood and whenever I try to meander through it alone, I turn back within minutes (usually at a run 😂). This was incredibly inspiring!! And those views! Just wow! 😍 Thank you for always challenging yourself to grow and then sharing it with us, Isabel! ✨💖
