Camping Alone in a Bog

- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- Parked my car on an old forestry road in the backwoods of Ontario, Canada picked a direction and bushwacked a few km till I found a decent place to setup my tarp, turned out the best place to camp was in a swamp, or a bog, or a marsh or whatever you'd like to call it.

Your content provides me with unmatched escapism, don't stop creating
Happy to hear that my friend!
You should also watch Foresty Forest! Amazing !
@@XanderBudnick Any bigfoot or cryptid encounters??
Agreed, please don’t stop creating content.
that broccoli got me off guard..! 😄
lol :D

:) ❤
"Wrappy around stick" is by far the best knot.
I really enjoy the formula of your videos - hike in, set up camp, cook something, go to bed, repeat the next day if multi day. So simple and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks brother. Glad you're enjoying the vids :)
Just discovered your channel few days ago and I can’t stop watching! Great videos bro, keep creating more!! ❤️
Same here!
Same
Me too!
Xander is such a beast 😂

I’ve been a RUclips creator for about five years and been watching RUclips for many years but hand on heart these videos a simply the most satisfying and an absolute pleasure to watch Sir we salute you love from the uk 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Love watching this guy lol love how he puts the camera down an then walks towards it like he didn't put it there lol.. the way these vids are put together are really enjoyable to watch.. this is what I call content
Please DO NOT STOP making these videos. Wish you all the very best for your upcoming content. Stay safe. Lots of love from India.
Thanks brother glad you're enjoying the content
@@XanderBudnick Keep em' coming bro.
Thank you Xander, this provides me with an inner peace an escapism. Stay and be safe 😊
Yah me too bro i sleep better than before seriously
So wonderful to see you spending time with your family. So much joy and the places are so beautiful..thank you sharing..
Xander, if you ever decide to create a Patreon then im 100% in.
Xander Vs the elements with Xander humour - these videos are so therapeutic 👍
Cris 👊
Same here!
Cheer brother! Havent really thought about it much - never thought people set up Patreons for Adventure Content :p
@@XanderBudnick i guess it's more about allowing "us", your adoring fans (lol), the opportunity to support your efforts - the drone work, the editing, the high qualify footage etc 😎
@@XanderBudnick I just found you and I'd be totally down to support you man!
@@XanderBudnick Forestry Forest, here in Alberta, does quite well with having patreon supporters.
when you think about bog: dreary, stinky, sad place
what bog actually is: *frog party never stops yeah*
Love that!!! haha
“…do they ever like to party, hard AF…” lmao nice
Lol
After I watched ur videos, I do not opt to watch any other similar videos from other youtubers. Ur style is unique. Keep posting often. Love from India
I think this is by far the best meal you've cooked while camping
Thanks I really enjoyed that one!
This videos give me so much peace. Keep going Xander! to far beyond!
Thank Leonardo!!! Cheers friend!
that's very great that you show a lot and don't edit the videos, and that you don't do any music in the background, just perfect. it's very fun 👍💪✌👌
Keep creating ❤💪
You eat broc and journal like a champ! 😆 Sweet drone shot of the beaver and lodge. I've heard people say that's "harassing" wildlife, but I find that ridiculous. Of all the difficulties and perils wild animals face, a buzzing bird above them for a minute is nothing.
Yah I didn't really think about it at the time but it could be disruptive for the animals. He kind came into my shot when I was filming the water and I got caught up in filming him. I think he came by my camp later they evening and started smacking his tail at me :p
@@XanderBudnick hahah yeah for all the tail slapping shade they throw us, they can deal with the drone
The only nature videos I look forward to watching! Your another breed! Keep smiling! We love you
Excellent film! Thanks again for sharing your adventures with us! ❤
I’m spending my Saturday evening listening to 🐸, it’s glorious.
in this chaotic world, your videos gave me chills. thank you and respect from turkey
Amazing thanks for sharing ☺️
Enjoyed the trip.
Like the time, not to long and to the point. Enjoyed the tarp setup.
Excellent aerial video!
Will be looking forward to more.
Kinda therapeutic, these videos.... keep at it, buddy
Thanks, will do!
Hello Budnick ! Another thing I love in your videos is when you wake up in the morning hidden in your sleeping bag. I would like to try the same adventure in your beautiful country. Have a good day and take care dear Budnick✌️😉
The Dear Diary bit just completely destroyed me!
Please keep up the EXCELLENT WORK! :D
I love how he adds comedy at the appropriate spots and does not make his videos comedic videos.
Thank you so much for the recommendation Ben ❤
Lived abroad for many years, Really enjoy watching your videos and really appreciating what we have here in Ontario. All the best and safe travels
Great setup I love the high tie out. I just got back from exploring some pine meadows just like that in Alberta's sand belt today. Here, they're basically sand dunes left behind by the North Saskatchewan and Athabasca Rivers. At the peak of each dune, the soil is so thin that trees can't grow, so the meadows are formed. In between them wetlands form. It's a really cool ecosystem, I saw all kinds of scat including what I think was wolf scat full of deer hair. Crazy diversity of plants in there as well. Looking forward to checking out more of these videos!
Sounds like a cool place to explore 🙂
Your dedication to show each path you take in spite of having to go back and forth reminds me of Li Ziqi.
ahhh yes the wrappy around stick knot, my personal favourite.
Something so peaceful about watching this anyone else feel that way
Gosh..that air view of where your Camping, shocked your right in the middle of all that water.. great watching this. THANK YOU
Haha I’m a 25 year old girl from Romania, and I found your channel 2 days ago. Been hooked. Wow, great videos! Told my brother about your videos. He’s showed his buddies too. Great Content. Subscribed!
"wrappy around stick" Ah yes, my favorite knot!
Coming back to some older videos after getting hooked a couple months ago!
i always look forward to peeper season in the spring 🥰
Couple of years ago I used to go camping with my dad I used to have so much fun but one day he just left to never be seen again and I always had that camping void that needed to be fixed your videos help man I can't go camping because of my life situation but your videos keep me sane till I finally one day can camo again keep it up please and your awesome
Hey Brother, sorry to hear that! keep strong my man! You'll camp again! My dad didn't teach me shit about camping! I learned it all on my own so you're golden my friend!
Again, another perfect adventure. And wow, that's how I like to eat broccoli, right from the garden!
“Wrappy around Stick” Cracked me up!
Man I’m really digging the shelter. I really like it. Those dang frogs!
this is the perfect format for 20 min style videos, feels like 10 every time. good stuff
I needed to wind down to go to sleep for finals tomorrow and this video was perfect! Thanks brother :)
I always enjoy watching your video. It's not only stress relieving, you videos shows me what the other part of the world that we impossibly reach. I'm a fan!
I am glad you post a lot of videos in this hilarious quality.
I literally cannot stop watching ur vids plus im even more pumped for my hiking trip in Sweden
Just started watching! So peaceful and relaxing. I was not into camping until watching your videos! Thanks!
I binge-watched so many of your videos, that at midnight I had a nightmare that I was stuck in the woods-
The deer do make rubs during the rut to help attract does. It leaves their scent on the limbs. Great video as always
I'm happy to see you again🥰 🙌👏
Welcome back!
It is just amazing all the editing you do just for us to enjoy your beautiful video 🤩😎🤩
I see your up to your usual standards with this video. Totally awesome! Just the right amount of seriousness blended with humor! The huge stalk of raw Broccoli and a dirty cutting board that seen its better day 🙂 and the dear diary definitely made me laugh. Thanks as always for the video!
Rick From Virginia
Hey Rick! I think the last video might have suffered a bit because the trip was much more demanding and more difficult to film. Glad you enjoyed this one my friend! Happy you got a laugh out of it! Have a great day!
Subscribed. Thanks for the content. I appreciate all of the different angle views, it must take time but allows me to see it from nature’s POV. Keep up the great work.
Cheers my man! Takes time but it's just part of the job
Such a beautiful place🥰 wow!! Happy you got to experience it!👍
I really feel like I’m there while watching your videos, keep up the good work, great content
Right on man glad you were into it!
Yo I love how you're just chillin...literally. Love the stuff bro!
Superb video, Xander! You wolfed that broccoli like a boss! 🙂🥦 🌟
TY Ty - lol someones got to do it :p
10:10
He casually flip a burning log with barehand
What a madlad
Spring peepers do be loud. A lovely chorus of an evening!
😍😍😍... nice camping site.. nice weather too
Aye it worked out :D
I watch these every night to help me fall asleep. These videos are 10/10! One suggestion - the chopping board needs a good scrub :’) lol. Keep up the amazing work Xander!
Congrats on your 50K subs ! Who needs Cable when you have RUclipsrs like Xander, seriously ! ;-)
Thanks brother. 50k is crazy! I had only 1k back at the beginning of January 😐
@@XanderBudnick I have to say, I'm not too surprised by that ...lots of creativity and time put in those videos !
@@andredemers69 Thanks my man! its nice to see the work paying off that's for sure :D
Only the brave cook chicken in the woods! Well done brother, I loved the rope tutorial at the end too, little practical tidbits are always dope to know.
"Only the brave cook chicken in the woods" - was that a Churchill quote?
Absolutely love watching all ur camping videos...u inspired me to live life to the fullest
In this messy world your videos are lullabies for me..
Holy fornicating frogs, Xander! Reminds me of when I lived in Fla., and in a rainstorm, you COULD NOT get home without making frog pate on the road!
(Always put me in the mood for frogs legs.....)
I absolutely enjoy his sense of humour
I don't know why but hearing at the beginning of the vid that you're also in Ontario just makes these vids so much more enjoyable for me
Close to home :)
Another Xander video drops and I drop everything to watch it. Loved every moment, keep up the good work, can't wait until the next one!
A huge thanks for putting out the effort in going to such mesmerizing places and making such awesome camping videos..... u ignite the fire of already existing inspirations to explore nature in me ;)
Just from personal experience, I have found the best way to carry cooking oils in my pack is to use those little metal drink flasks. The kind the groom gives to his groomsmen and they abuse at the wedding. Holds from 4 ounces to 21 ounces usually, and they never leak and can take some abuse.
That was amazing, and you are teaching me a lot, my friend God bless you always and your family
Your meals are the best!!!!
One of the greatest channel I discovered.
Great video and content. Always look forward to these!
Cheers my friend
Thanks for what you do. It helps me dream with more detail. This looks like life. 🇺🇸✝️😁👍🏻
Just noticed your onion cutting skills. Pretty nice the way you keep your fingers away from the knife 🔪. At least you have some kitchen skills. I was traumatised by others using knives Tu cut up food in the wild. Lots of Love from Hungary!
Those branches MAY have been stripped by a deer in rut... but I believe that bucks in rut TYPICALLY strip the bark off of small saplings... and about at chest high and lower. Another thing is that deer in rut are completely out of their minds... so I wouldn't put it past them to be passing thru, get hungup a bit (like we all do with our packs on) and then in a little fit of fury tear at the tree limbs. You basically don't want to be around bucks in rut.. they get crazy. Great video.
Aye! good to know! I was super curious because that opening had close to 30 piles of droppings and those broken tree branches! thank for the insight.
OMG all that Broccoli Xander...lol..and yes...veggies are good for you!!!!
the journal entry has me laughing 😂 ❤
I always like the way you edit cutting wood. Tjop tjop!
Am I the only one who watch it just to get sleepy? His videos have unintentional ASMR effect.
Another great vlog and thanks for sharing your amazing outdoor adventures !
Your vlogs are getting better by time and u added the gear you've used which is great. Thanks and enjoy the outdoors ! 👍🔥☕🌲💪
Thanks Kristen! its a pleasure to share!
I'm always trying to improve that's for sure! Have a nice weekend!
Alone time, nice job man
🏕 It's the peacefulness of camping & that comforting fire.
Definitely
"wrappy around stick" hahaha love it
On time ✌️
:d
Love your videos very Much. Looking foreward for more adventures. 😊
Glad you like them!
Your vid is great as usual , funny and informative at the same time , and your not afraid to get out of your comfort zone to camp in the middle of a swamp . I can tell you it would be my last choice during mosquitoe season 😨 . Hope you still can ear after that noisy night , always wonder how many decibels they can produced those 🐸 . I had a good laugh watching you eat that brocoli , lol . And thanks for leaving no trace , your setting a good example 🙏 See you in the next Xander
Thanks again! honestly, it was just the flattest and most open place to camp :p Aye, I'm definitely not looking forward to the bugs, they're just a few days/ weeks away too :(
I was shocked at how loud it got. it was actually kinda tough to sleep. I woke up a bit shell shocked lol
@@XanderBudnick hahaha I can imagine, mye mye
That moment when you lit the 🔥, amazing
Love watching your videos. Keep safe.
Bro please dont stop making these videos❤
I won't :p I appreciate it :)
Bro your winter camping series is the best ...you should go all over the world i would love to see you camping in Norway❤
I was like, “oh nice! That sweet potato is probably going to be good”. Then he adds onions in with the sweet potato and now I want to blow my brains out😂.
I LOVE YOU XANDER TO THE FOREST AND BACK ☺️💕❤️😘🪵🌲🌿🍀🌺 KEEP GOING!! xoxo❤️💋
Great video. 'Wrappy round stick' made me laugh a lot!
I like how some people make their biggest financial purchase of their lives based on the usability of a kitchen and this dude is out in a bog with 1 tiny cutting board, a knife, a pan, and some ziploc baggies having a more relaxing meal then 99% of people in first world countries.
So true.
Anyone else keep a Diary? *cough* .... I mean Journal?
Me , when i was highschool until now ,even if im 29 now,
I did the PCT without a journal and regret every second!
You mean a Captains log?
@@theavillarde5155 Aye brother nice!
@@extremepedestrian You wont forget it for your next trip im sure :D
Yeah buddy! Great trip!! Your editing is going next level. Great job. Thanks for sharing.
It was a fun one :) thanks brother
