Thanks for watching guys. This can be the unfortunate reality when camping alone. This is far from the first (or worst) scary encounter that I’ve had while travelling or “adventuring” alone. I’m sure a lot of you can relate. I guess this is a reminder to keep your wits about you in the back country and listen to your gut when it’s trying to tell you something. This guy was acting weird when he got out of his car and it stuck with me all day- seeing his car pass by multiple times after made me realize that I didn’t want to be spending the night out there. That’s unfortunately just the way it goes sometimes- best we can do is make the right decisions and prevent as much risk as possible without having to give up what we love, and taking ourselves into the great outdoors. I hope you all stay safe when you’re out on your own adventures ❤️
Good call, one time was camping with my wife and inlaws for thanksgiving. a lone guy drove around the empty campgrounds and pulled up back to a spot right next to us. then approached the camp and asked if our dogs responded to commands. I put my gun on my picnic table and said "they know how to respond to MY commands". we left after i explained that i would rather not get murdered in my sleep. drove back home after our campfire thanksgiving meal that night. ALWAYS take personal protection into your own hands. Stay fit, Carry a weapon and medical gear, Constantly plan evasion as you go. But great job on you!!! STAY SAFE!
Thanks for still taking the time to edit this and put it up, even though it wasn't the trip you wanted. I find it helpful to see/hear how other women deal with situations like this. It makes me feel better prepared when I'm in the moment and questioning what to do.
Glad you trusted your intuition and hauled ass back to your van. Hoping you'll have many great and safe camping adventures to come soon where you don't have to be cautious of anything except critters (and bears)!
You not only got yourself out of a potentially dangerous situation, you showed what it looks like so that others can learn from you. Several times you've abandoned your trips, all for good reasons. This is what good judgement in the wilderness is all about.
This is literally the bear and the man dilemma playing out. You weren't afraid to be out there with one bear, but as soon as a man turned up you upped and left. Im sorry you had to go through this after making such a great camp. you definitely did the right thing, just sucks that you didn't get to have the adventure you wanted.
I think you’re right to trust your gut, as a woman you know when something like that is a little off and it’s better to feel safe than sorry unfortunately. I love your videos, you inspire me to get out there solo! ❤
I discovered your channel a few months ago and just wanna say how much I appreciate that you always share your authentic experience without sugarcoating or dramatizing. You are doing all the cool stuff I'd love to do one day and it's inspiring to see both the wonderful and sometimes sketchy/scary things that can happen. Props to you for trusting your gut and doing what you needed to do to feel safe. Thanks for being so real and letting us come along for the ride!
you did the right thing girl, your instincts were more than on point. even if your bf was there this whole situation didn’t seem right. safest travels on your endeavors, wishing you positive energy✨
It's a good thing you got out of there when you did. Who knows what Herb would have done to that guy if he showed up a 4th time 😤 But fr so glad you're safe lots of love 💕
Before you said it, I had the same thought that it sucks you can't just enjoy a solo adventure, even being the brave, independent person you are. Your instincts are keen, though, so good call (plus, you still got to do the hike, cut the wood, setup the tarp -- all good experience. And most importantly, Herb is safe !)
I love your channel and your adventures. It really sucks that you had to leave but you did the right thing. Always trust your instincts. Looking forward to more of your wonderful videos
I’m relieved you’re safe but I vocally said “ughhhhh why do they have to ruin everything!” when you decided to go. I love your videos, it literally puts me in a cozy mood and hope scumbags get their day for ruining yours.
Glad that you're safe and that you got out of there. listening to your gut saves lives. My mom always told me to listen to my intuition, and it has definitely paid off. I hope this doesn't stop your videos, because they are wonderful.
Smart choice. This can happen to men, too. I camped solo in a spot only to have a couple of cars, one after the other, sit and wait next to my dispersed site for a long time. Dark windows. Engines running. Just watching me. They either wanted my site for a big party or I was in for a mugging when the dark came. I had a bow and knife, but why take risks? It wasn’t worth it. I ended my trip early. Thanks for the tip on keeping wood dry.
tbh i rather be out there among the bears, mountain lions, wolves, n moose than to have another human knowing where I'm camping at. Good observation on you to catch him 3 times. Bummer he ruined your camp out. Glad you Ok and looking forward to another adventure.
This sucks for you and for all of us who have to deal with “the killer.” But please dont worry about not keeping it all positive vibes. i think it’s very positive that you shared this, so other women ( and men ) will be aware. “Even if he meant no harm….” Get serious, sister. Love you and your strength and badass-ness👍🏻
It's really depressing hearing this story. I am a guy, we get really stupid ideas when hearing these stories, because we would also love to not worry but we do. Thanks for sharing, i am sure it's great inspiration for many and really soothing for guys like me. Great conclusion. It is what it is.
glad you made it out safe! thanks for posting the raw and real I agree on loving being a female but the safety factor. Loved seeing your woodsy girl knowledge of the saturated tree sap and her knot skills. happy and safe adventuring !! 🫶🏼
Glad you left! Better to be safe than sorry. Life is too short to risk being alone in the woods knowing a strange man knows where you are. Thanks for posting the video. I always look forward to your videos ❤
I recently cut my youtube subscriptions down from 200 something to 14 to waste less time on youtube. Yours is one of the 14 that I would not unsubscribe from. Always nice to see your videos, even if this experience of yours was not what you hoped for!
I saw like one of your videos by the grace of the algorithm and i have no interest in camping or bike packing myself but I could watch you do literally anything bc your energy is everything. Subbed.
That sucks so bad but even as I guy I always trust my instincts and it is ALWAYS safer and smart to do exactly what you did. Thank you so much for sharing!
I'm actually happy that you made the decision to leave because I myself won't feel safe about someone knowing where I'm camping and coming by it again and again in a creepy way, unfortunately this type of things happens so don't let it disencourage you to stop from camping and exploring. Happy to know you're all good and looking forward to your coming camping vidies, stay safe and have fun 😊🤍.
Thank you for showing this Video. First i was shouting to my boyfriend in the other room "lets go out with the tarp again, Jenna made a cool shelter,we need to try"😂. Super exited about your Video and then i was so angry that you had to experience these situations. It is so unfair for women. I just want to be a guy sometimes as well ,because it is easier. You made the right decision to leave, but it is sad. But you know, i think it is so good and honest that you showed that. Thank you. I love your Videos and i hope you wont experience that again. Sending love from Germany❤
I'm sorry you experienced that. It sucks, but you did the right thing to trust your intuition and stay safe. You did such a great job at your camp. So hopefully we'll get to see you do another bushcraft video in the fufure. But the most important thing is always to keep safe 😊 Thank you for still taking the time to edit and post this, and for be vulnerable and honest in sharing your feelings and experience.
Hi Jenna-grateful that you posted this and that you are safe. Amazing modeling of situational awareness and trusting your gut. So sad and angry you were forced to do so.
Is it just me, or can the tail end of a white vehicle be seen behind you on what looks the road when you're putting your pack in the van @14:27? 👀 Was the start of a cute camp and informative, I was enjoying it too, lady 😉 on to the next adventure!!
Sad you had to leave, especially with such a neat campsite set up already! Great bushcraft skills. It's a good thing you listened to your gut, though, I would have noped out of there as fast as I could too - whole situation was creepy as hell, and seeing the car 3 times can't have been a coincidence.
I've always worried about the possible dangers with u wandering around out there. I'm relieved to know that u take some precautions to help keep u safe 💗💗💗 people r insane. Gotta stay safe 🙏
Oh man, i would‘ve left too because that‘s so scary thinking that he might have followed you for real. I’m glad you decided to leave. Better be safe than sorry!! Next time will be better!! 😊
im a grown ass man but seeing this from your perspective made me scared too 😭 shit felt like when i watched Parasite when the basement was revealed. Glad ur okay and sorry u have to go thru that, people are weird out here
Really sorry to hear you had to call the night off for you safety. That sort of thing really sucks, but also 100% justified and probably the right choice 'cause you truly never know.
Thank you for still taking time to edit and post the video of this trip. Glad you got out of there safely, and sorry that some jerk ruined the spot for you.
I feel so bad when these things happen, being a woman is really hard, especially in these cases. Hope you won't have any similar experiences in the future. But thank you for the video and the honesty
So sad that women/people can't camp in the woods without being on high alert. I totally understand tho, you did well. Didn't expect this in Canada (Belgian here), I hope it's a rare occurrence. 🤞
This reminds me of the survey where they asked women if they’d rather be stuck alone with a bear or a man… confirmed that bears would be better. Sorry that happened to you, you 100% made the right call. Trust your gut.
Too bad about that encounter. I know from camping around there that there can be a strange 'element' that spends time out there. Better to be safe and go with your gut. That area is pretty heavily frequented but farther west has better views and less campers. Good luck on the next campout. :)
@@thesuperfunkomatic good tip! I do enjoy the views further out- I’m always torn between going deeper into the woods to avoid people and staying closer to the main roads so I can leave quickly if I need to :”)
You did the right thing Jenna, shame someone like that spoiled your camping adventures, your channel, videos are really good and show true Canadian wildness. Did i see you had a GPS tracker on you? a yellow device. if not then i think its good to have so any problem that might occur you have the technology to alert someone incase no cell phone coverage etc. your bushcraft skills are way more than the average camper. stay safe.
Glad you were able to get back to your car safely . Sad that people like that stalker make people feel unsafe . Worrying about bears is worrisome enuff .
I think you did the right thing. I would recommend reporting this to the police, especially as you have the license plate. At the very least, they have a record of that vehicle in the area. At best, they would visit him and bust him for the window, plus any dodgy stuff he has in the car.
When you carried those trunks, I was like YEAH STRONG !! But then I'm so sorry you had to leave because of creepy men. You're not being negative when you acknowledge the reality of being a woman. It shouldn't be your responsibility (I mean, he didn't have to follow you, right?) but alas, you make the decisions you have to make in order to stay safe. You were definitely right to follow your instinct and leave. Can't wait for your next video !
fackin men…we have so much to answer for. love your channel and your joy for live. seeing you scamper over that stream carrying those logs without slipping once! … you are inspiring to so many people.
hi jenna! i’ve watched pretty much all of your videos by now and i love them all. i want to also enjoy the outdoors but i have very little knowledge about camping (tree sap being flammable, types of trees, types of knots etc) where/how did you learn it all?? i look forward to more videos :)) 🫶
@@angieeeigna hi Angie!! Thank you so much 🥹❤️ to be honest I didn’t come from an outdoorsy background growing up, so these are all things I’ve had to learn myself! I have a few good basic bushcraft/camping books that I can always refer back to for knowledge on shelter, knots, safety etc - the Canterbury bushcraft series are very helpful for beginners. I also feel like RUclips (and just looking stuff up on Reddit amd google) has taught me tons as well :) not sure if that helps but let me know if you have any other questions! I am definitely still learning as I go
Aw man. That sucks. I always carry somthing with me. But I'm a guy. For a girl it's definitely different. I had a friend that would brake there thoughts. So it's ok to tap out. Be safe and stay strong
Hi Jenna, this is my first time ever tuning in into your channel. I was wondering, where did you go in this video? Is it in Canada 🇨🇦? It’s so beautiful 😍
Please report the license plate and events to the police! I'm so sorry this happened to you, and you were absolutely justified in leaving. That sounds so scary! I hope you never have to deal with that again.
I'm quite the big strong man with some martial arts experience, I would also have been spooked out and left by that. Thanks for putting in the work of making the video anyway!
@@kiraaindow hey girl! They’re just some cargo pants I got from the thrift store with a bunch of loops and pockets! I think In this video I just used carabiners to attach my bear spray and garmin. The pants have pretty deep pockets so I could put my saw in there too! Also I just checked out your Saint johns video and the editing/shots were really pretty, it looked like such a fun trip 😁
Definitely made the right decision. As a man, I would like to know if there is anything a man can do in situations like this to avoid seeming like a serial killer.
It's the lingering and the silence that raises red flags a lot of the time. If this guy didn't have malicious intent a simple acknowledgement "Hey sorry, didn't realize anybody was here, I'll get out of your hair" and actually not making yourself known again is less unsettling. Making the effort to vocalize, in one sentence that you see how the situation looks, keep your distance, and put intentional space in between you and a stranger goes a long way. Also if you do say something, taking off anything covering your face (hat, sunglasses, mask, whatever) can help.
This is the second video I've seen today involving a female RUclipsr having to deal with creepy guys 😓 As the father of a daughter, it makes me disgusted and sad. So sorry you had to deal with that!
To reinforce what most others are saying, intuition is powerful if you allow yourself to listen to it. My wife and I were on our honeymoon in and near Glacier National Park, staying in primitive and backcountry sites. This was twenty years ago. We'd mapped out a ten mile hike for our second morning, and about half a mile in, all the hair on my neck stood up and I had this intense feeling of dread. No reason for it that I could tell. I convinced my now wife that we needed to turn back and go NOW with no evidence as to why. She was disappointed, but didn't press me on it. Two days later, a hiker was mauled by a grizzly on that same trail. We never know what subtle information our brains are picking up in the background.

@ this helps a lot! i’ll definitely check those out thanks! :))
Aw man. That sucks. I always carry somthing with me. But I'm a guy. For a girl it's definitely different. I had a friend that would brake there thoughts. So it's ok to tap out. Be safe and stay strong
Hi Jenna, this is my first time ever tuning in into your channel. I was wondering, where did you go in this video? Is it in Canada 🇨🇦? It’s so beautiful 😍
Please report the license plate and events to the police! I'm so sorry this happened to you, and you were absolutely justified in leaving. That sounds so scary! I hope you never have to deal with that again.
I'm quite the big strong man with some martial arts experience, I would also have been spooked out and left by that.
Thanks for putting in the work of making the video anyway!
Hi! Love your videos. I have a random question, where’d you get your glasses!?
As a man myself I would have left too. Trust your gut always.
3:44 she has superhuman strength 😮
Nice
Even as a man, I'd probably still bail, especially if I was alone, he was clearly someone to be concerned about.
I'm so curious about your pant/utility belt set up
@@kiraaindow hey girl! They’re just some cargo pants I got from the thrift store with a bunch of loops and pockets! I think In this video I just used carabiners to attach my bear spray and garmin. The pants have pretty deep pockets so I could put my saw in there too! Also I just checked out your Saint johns video and the editing/shots were really pretty, it looked like such a fun trip 😁
I would have taken off. God Bless and Be Safe
Definitely made the right decision. As a man, I would like to know if there is anything a man can do in situations like this to avoid seeming like a serial killer.
It's the lingering and the silence that raises red flags a lot of the time. If this guy didn't have malicious intent a simple acknowledgement "Hey sorry, didn't realize anybody was here, I'll get out of your hair" and actually not making yourself known again is less unsettling. Making the effort to vocalize, in one sentence that you see how the situation looks, keep your distance, and put intentional space in between you and a stranger goes a long way. Also if you do say something, taking off anything covering your face (hat, sunglasses, mask, whatever) can help.
Glad you were able to stay safe. Also, does Herb have Crocs?
No but he should
@@jennalexisko Agreed. I think he'd like a pair for Christmas
Hiiii, I love your channel. I was wondering what water bottle you use in your videos. its a filter one
@@abigailwilkinson9288 thank you ! It’s from the brand Grayl :)
14:27 White SUV passes in background.
Gut feeling is the correct move, Eva Zu Beck ( U tube) has a stalker now , and has ben run off her new land.
This is the second video I've seen today involving a female RUclipsr having to deal with creepy guys 😓 As the father of a daughter, it makes me disgusted and sad. So sorry you had to deal with that!
Dont mean to scare you, you already scared... Don wait any longer to take actions, olease...
To reinforce what most others are saying, intuition is powerful if you allow yourself to listen to it.
My wife and I were on our honeymoon in and near Glacier National Park, staying in primitive and backcountry sites. This was twenty years ago.
We'd mapped out a ten mile hike for our second morning, and about half a mile in, all the hair on my neck stood up and I had this intense feeling of dread. No reason for it that I could tell. I convinced my now wife that we needed to turn back and go NOW with no evidence as to why. She was disappointed, but didn't press me on it.
Two days later, a hiker was mauled by a grizzly on that same trail. We never know what subtle information our brains are picking up in the background.
