3 Days Solo Camping and Canoeing on Backcountry River - Moose and Calf Encounter
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- After a quick camp out and scouting mission last week, me and my Canoe named Patches come back and try to run a section of this backcountry river over 3 days. We expected rapids and smooth paddling but got anything but it, never the less I wouldn't change this trip for the world as it was one to be remembered.

Hey Guys! Longer Video this week! Wondering how you guys all feel about the length? Bueno? No Bueno? lemme know :p
and thanks for watching!
Longer the video the better👍
Bueno 👌👌
@@brodiejack422 that's what she said
Wait, it says that Xander’s comment was 10 hours ago even tho the video says it was uploaded 20 minutes ago.. huh
perfect
Can we appreciate the fact that he films in such a way that it seems like we follow him into the paths he takes.. but in reality he puts the camera in a place, walks away from it, AND walks back to get the camera back, and so on and so on.. so its 3X of hard work, just to give us a better watch experience.. this dude is awesome
Thanks my man!!
Fucken hell. This guy needs a raise
Absolutely right
That's cause he's Canadian and has watched alot of Survivorman ;)
I see it man, kudos maximos Xander
"I don't think bears are attracted to the smell of flour."
*flips the steaks over*
(facepalm)
Thank you for making this comment. I was thinking it. Great moment.
Meanwhile, the mosquitoes are finding their own hot piece of steak.
I would love to camp but I have the feeling of people constantly watching me😂
@@jordanbautista8351 yah nobody is there
Man’s soul just left his body right after mama moose made that sound.
Lol totally
He was like oh shit time to go nobody want to deal with that moose who looking for her calf
Mine did too. Lol
my soul left my body when that mom made that noise
I cannot express how happy I am to have discovered that channel, perfect blend of light hearted humor, relaxing and mesmerizing content. You’re an absolute gem, won’t be long before absolutely blowing up! Keep up the fantastic work man ✊🏻
Thank my friend! happy to hear that :D
Hands down the best wild camping channel out there. Informative, interesting, and pure escapism. Watching these vids brings me hope, peace, and much needed head space. Thank you Xander!
Those are nice words. Thank you for your comment and I'm glad you're into the content!
You’ve quickly become one of favorite channels. Just a dude going out and enjoying the land. It’s so relaxing
Happy to hear that :D
What I ABSOLUTELY LOVE is the silent storytelling in every video of what it’s like to set, maintain, and take down a campsite. Consistent, beautiful.
Those fish shots were beautiful, the drone footage went very well with this trip, always appreciate the effort you put into filming these, especially at this length!!
Glad you enjoyed it! :D
incredible filming/editing, and even more impressive and inspiring is your relentlessly positive attitude! can’t imagine how much energy it took to make it through all those strainers, but you still had energy for some goofing around during the headlamp review!? 😂 awesome. can’t wait to watch more of your excellent content!
It's crazy the lengths you go to for cinematic views. You set up the camera, pick up Patches walk a few yards then put Patches down and pick up the Camera. You are awesome.
aye its just part of the gig yah know :p
That moment (18:45) when the baby moose was calling for his mom and the mother gave you the 'don't mess with my baby' sound...that was intense! I can understand why it's the most replayed moment in this video. Great job keeping calm & catching all that for us to see👍 ❤
Literally my favourite channel on youtube, so relaxing to watch, dont stopppp
Cheers man that means a ton :D I will
Yeah.i watched all videos during pandemic
I have been going through so much lately and these videos just erase all the memory of the bad stuff I want to go camping with him it’s like an escape from my depression
Hey buddy hope you're doing alright 🙂
Another stunning video, Zander. Loved the modeling...lol. I really appreciate how you don't hold anything back, and show nature in all it's glory and it's trials. I might be a cripple in a wheelchair, but watching you has given me, a real desire to break free, and start riding horses again. I know it will be a struggle, but I look forward to it. Thanks Zander. Your my inspiration. God bless. P. S. Your fire making skills are solid, no matter what anyone says.
Thanks Kim I appreciate that.
Do what you can with what you have, I'm sure there's loads you can still do and if riding is your passion and im sure it's still possible, take advantage of this beautiful life we have eh
Shots in the video. which describes how hard you work to become more creative
1) 16:57 Amazing, Amazing, Amazing shot
2) 22:28 The effort that you put in that shot to make it look better was good.
Looked like you were helping the Canoe to cross the river. Instead of Canoe helping you.
Thanks for showing us all the challenges you face to create a video.
Thanks my friend it feels nice to be appreciated 😊 have an awesome day
This must be one of your best videos ever! We have everything: adventure, suspense, comedy, and that eerie overview of your boat amidst the fish, so awesome! Your growth as a director is so evident and you have this talent of making us feel like we're right there with you. Congrats Xander, may you always be safe and never lose that ability to find magic and wonder in Nature and the Great Outdoors!
Right on glad to hear! I didn't think it was anything special tbh. I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to write that - comments like this are so motivating !!!
*u put a lot of efforts and don't exaggerate to the audience. Such an honest person u r*
Another amazing video! Patches is even more memorable now that we've seen her go the distance. That looked tough but so much fun! Thanks for another great video good sir
Love the head lamp promo. You're hilarious. Like seeing what you're going to cook too
PATCHES IS BACK BABY!!!!!! always exciting seeing a new xander video :)
:D Shes back! Happy to hear that :D
Man you handled that frustration and annoyance so well. Great mental strength. Another awesome vid! Love the reviews, the cooking, the campsite chores, the length of the videos, everything. Very enjoyable to watch.
Loved it mate that shot of you above the fish in the water was incredible, love the longer runtime too nice one
aye its definitely one of my favorites
What I love about your videos is your positive and collected personality. The humor is absolutely refreshing. Thanks
Love your videos Xander, you've inspired me to start getting into bushcraft! Im from Ontario and after watching your videos all week I ordered a bunch of gear and plan to go on my own camping trips because of you. Also, as intense as the situation must have felt I couldn't help but chuckle when the Moose made that warning grunt at you especially after seeing you imitate it lol. I look forward to watching more of these!
Beautiful day and I'm glad you're doing this video thanks 👍❤
Beautiful overview of an ancient meandering stream. The glacier was quite the artist.
finally you made a video longer than 30 minutes, ily xander😍❤
The content was there so it worked out for this one :p
@@XanderBudnick Actually, I saw your video just wanted to see you :) 👀 is that wrong?
that moment with the fish was beautiful, instantly contrasted with the intense moose encounter.
Cool moments eh
Xander looked heart broken when his saw broke 😂
:/ aye it was a strange moment
@@XanderBudnick could tell brother. You looked bewildered lol
Those saws are designed to only cut on the pull stroke...the blade has to be in tensionwhen you cut, not compression. Don't saw back and forth like you did. That's how you snapped the blade.
A guy who enjoys so much the food.....(I am thin too...but i can feel you...)one of the best things in life.....Be good and Safe..!!!Greetings from the ''other'' part of the world....Greece...!!!
Officially fall in love with your RUclips content.
Happy to hear that my friend
Sat in the middle of the city watching your videos back to back. Man, i’d kill for a off the grip camping trip like this.
Inspiring.
The last time he said that surviving in these kind of situations makes him appreciate the simple things when he goes back home. Man, that made me stay and keep this channel a little safe place.
Happy to hear that my man!
I would never ever have courage to camp outside alone. You are such a tough survivor! Well done! And the scenes you took are beautiful, thank you for all of these.
The honest review was well appreciated. I think there's definitely space for that honest of a critique and display of a product, and it's well welcomed in a space where advertisement has become ubiquitously subversive. Love your videos, going to try my hand at some camping because of it!
I’ve watched your entire Chanel’s content in the span of 3 days and this has become my favourite yt chanel! Even inspired me to go for a tramp/camp for the first time in a long time
Right on brother!! Thats awesome to hear. Hope you get out and enjoy yourself :)
3:55 the sound of the river gushing is really soothing. Oh how magnificent Mother Nature is!
Dude... just discovered your channel. Love it! Love the videos. Love the adventures, and really appreciate your positive attitude through all of it and in the face of adversity. Pretty damn inspiring. Thanks for sharing these!
Thanks my friend glad you're into the content ☺️
I've watched around a handful of your videos now and I must say you're my favourite bush channel. Your videos are so unforced, natural, but yet have so much structure to them that it immerses me right off the bat. I can now say with confidence that I could survive a few days out in the wilderness without hassle, thanks for the tips and great content man. Keep it up.
Being flexible keeps a person from breaking. I have had a few tough trips but after the pains goes away, I only remember the best parts and that makes it worth it. Well done again.
A great way to start my day. Thank you for a great video!
Im glad :D
(August 9, 2022) A great challenge managing those logs obstructing your way along the river. Xander, you are one of a kind, buddy! Thank you for sharing with us your canoeing and camping exploits.
This video without a doubt was my favorite video of yours so far! So much work put into recording each shot, and you can really tell the difference in quality. Made me miss camping so much. Keep it up mate, fantastic as always.
This deserves a million support ❤️
thank you
Made my Monday morning. Thanks a lot!
The effort you put in is immense, your film making is great, the video quality is great, the cooking is great, the only things that sucks is your fire making.
Thanks my friend thank you! that's the first time I've been told my fire making sucks :p
@@XanderBudnick should have made a fire pit, when you started the fire on the ground...all i was thinking was forest fire with all those dry materials around there
I love the scene of all those fish in the clear water. I really am hooked on your videos these days. Thanks.
i discoverd you yesterday and watched like to 3:00 am you are doing an amazing job !!!!
Thanks brother :D
Dude you are like a breath of fresh air When it comes to this Bush crafting solo camping kayaking fishing adventuring video world we're in now U are not pretentious, Arrogant, Egotistically flamboyantly annoying, you don't Hide any mistakes that I can see Or sugarcoat a thing ,you show every mistake And triumph alike. I'm not saying everybody out there Is egotistical And annoying But there are enough So far you are the hero of the solo adventurer to me Thanks for good video and contact I will live Vicariously through you until I get well enough to get back out there again myself.
Right on my friend I'm happy to hear that. Ill be honest I never much enjoyed alot of the content out there although I love the activities myself. Thanks for commenting my friend.
WHOA.... that shot with the fish and the canoe?!? Incredible!
The dance moves when your showing off the headlight😂
Zoolander moment 😂 this guy is clearly enjoying himself while making this vid
Thanks Xander. Very relaxing videos before going to sleep.
Floating over the fish is over the top dude. Maybe one of the best shots I've ever seen in a camping video.
Love the simplicity of the content in contrast with the tremendous amount of work it must require 👏👏. Would love to see the hours of the day or night from time to time. Great work.
When are you going to start your cooking series! Top chef style
Maybe if I ever get better at cooking :p
have to say LOVE your videos U are such a card makes my day each time I watch your trips don.t change EVER
Well I’m hooked ever since I saw you with Jon on Lost Lakes I started following your channel.. love your humor.. your modelling was hilarious ..and your honesty is refreshing
By the way, have you considered doing a gear run-through? Looking to get into camping like you, but I lack many of the essential items - and I also lack the knowledge! A run-through would be great!
hehehe you're the 10th person today to ask :p I guess ill have to do that
@@XanderBudnick Neat! You seem to have a pretty good setup and I am sure myself and others would love to hear more :)
I have to say, this is one of the best canoe video I have ever watched. Thanks
Honestly i feel like we are learning together but you have a lot more important knowledge than me so i am just absorbing all this and love this channel so much!
Brotha, I've watched about 20 of your videos now, and the meals you keep pulling out every time is just amazing. Going to have to try most of those out some time soon!
I love the fact that when you got given a freebie from a company, you don’t pretend like it’s the best thing in the world like every other RUclipsr. Keep it up mate
Xander, single handedly sawing his way through dead trees, blazing the trail for future portage travelers! I picture the pioneers doing this exact thing, minus the dress shirt. This was excellent Xander, I was exhausted just watching.
creating this vids earns already an appreciation ..good job Xander
Watching his videos from last 2 months and I do enjoy this... Honestly the way he struggled and didnt give up on the fallen trees in the river that trapped his path every paddle of the way is a good lesson and even though he laughed about it... Subscribed and Liked... Last but not least...Fish drone shot was awesome
Me and my girl just binge watching survival videos and your channel is one of the best ones, great channel man! Makes me wanna go back to ON to camp
The overhead drone shots with the fish & canoe were super cool. Those flies look relentless!! And just watching you work makes me hungry! Cool, and challenging, trip.
I once encountered a mama and baby moose while out fishing here in Wyoming. I stepped out of the willows and there they were. That's scary! I pretty much did what you did, tried to give them space as unobtrusively as possible. What a lot of work that canoe trip that was! You certainly don't duck the challenges. Great job!
Definitely a scary moment for sure. Aye it was work but still super fun :) thanks Wade
Omg that part of the video showing the school of fish was so beautiful!
Well I’ve watched all your videos now. I don’t do that often. You’ve got something special here! I pray for your safety on these adventures. Blessings
Everytime watching your videos makes me laugh all the time you have a geat sense of humor
The time changed...the season needs to change now too! Lots of things happening this spring. Let's go!
'I regret nothing!'. Made me smile
Quicky becoming one of my favourite channels, really enjoyed the longer video. Much love from London👍👍👍
Congrats on 100k Xander! I only discovered your channel a week ago, but have seen 8 of your videos. Love your channel!
Thank you Mika!!! Pretty wild - Glad you've been enjoying the content my friend!
My current binge channel. This stuff is awesome. Keep it up Xander!
Smooth seas never made a skilled sailor, my friend. Thanks for taking us with you!
Well this man is no stranger to hard work.
Your headlamp review and the 2 minutes that followed were, most likely, the most hilarious thing I've watched in a month. Had to wipe down my computer screen after spraying it with the I was drinking.
Just found your RUclips, has quickly become my favourite channel, watched all of your videos. They're so relaxing and the effort you put into your videos is insane, keep up the good work!
Hello from Minnesota! Loved this one!! It is so easy to be oblivious to just how much work doing a video like this is. Please keep making them, we love to watch!
Dude can I just say I think you are the first RUclips I have seen to take the time to actually go through and reply to all your followers it’s awesome!! I only found you maybe almost 2 weeks ago but I’m hooked keep it up love the outdoors!
Hey Ethan. Thanks man I enjoy the comments and I'm definitely trying. I can see why it's not super common, it getting harder and harder for me the respond as my channel grows which is a blessing and a curse :p glad you're enjoying the content my friend!!
Really enjoyed the video and the ride! I don't know why it is relaxing when I'm watching it. More videossssssssssssss!
Glad you enjoy
Your videos are awesome! You do such amazing work.
I love your optimism Xander!! So glad I came across your videos❤️💕

Canadas nature is hard to beat, just stunning
Endless river obstacles!! Wowzers- If Sisyphus was a Canadian. Love the videos amigo
17:00 That overhead shot of the canoe and the fish was like, National Geographic levels of awesome.
Well done! Living life to the fullest. All those fish and the moose was crazy.
You know, what makes your videos more interesting is your great sense of humour. You have funny bone in you! And I enjoy your videos so much because of that...
Thanks man I appreciate that :)
I am catching up with all your videos and holy shit this was a surprise. The moose, the "bears don't get attracted to flour" while flipping a steak, the review of the headlamp. I'm crying over here man :D

Cheers my friend. Happy your into the content
Oh wow, good on you. Your strength, determination is so inspiring. I truly enjoy your videos. So brutally honest, open and admire how you see the positive no matter what.
