    Hey everyone, I just want to leave a friendly reminder to make sure you've hit the BELL notifications for my videos (beside the subscribe button) and select "ALL". You. will also need to turn on notifications for RUclips as well. I've been told by many that they are not being notified when I put out a new video and these two steps will fix that :) You guys ROCK! 🙏🏼

    This was really nice, Careena! The rewards of that scenic mountain vista spoke volumns on why we often make the extra effort getting to these special places. I spotted a number of terrific "photo portraits" in this one, like when you were sitting on the rock, cup in hand and trusty bushcraft knife at your side while reflectively gazing out at all that beautiful mountain vastness, to name just one. Great editing/music as always, and thanks for sharing this much appreciated time of relaxation with us!

    I’ve only done that hike once and I remember it was steep. Well done! It would be even harder with a backpack. I loved your views at the top, but also the beach shots that bring back memories of my childhood and bringing my own kids there. Camping at the top was brilliant! Thanks for another great video Careena.

    So many obstacles trying to deter you from getting an overnight break Alexis. But well worth the effort in the end. Apart from the wind conditions the weather for the time of year looked great. Autumn is my favourite season and you captured the Beauty perfectly with your filming. Perseverance paid off in the end 👍

    Now we're talkin', Careena - perfectly imperfect. I think I know when this was as I was deer hunting (Quebec) and had at least one tree come down due to wind. I have that BRS stove - simple and reliable. Appreciate the effort in filming - you did more than just hike.

    Hi Alexis, well done. I am so happy to see you posting another video. One thing I love about you that, you are a athletic woman and dog lover. Most the times, you like solo camping and sometime of course, with Grizz. Every time you go, you always have a quite technic how to setup your tent. In this video, i also like the movement of things around you. Such as wild animals sound effect of grass, tree, and wind. I hope next time, don't forget bring your gps for your safety because, as a viewer, I am worrying anything can happen around you. Finally thank you Brandon, picked you up on time. As always, love you both.

    Great video Careena! This is the place that Bill was telling me about a year or two back. Invited me to come for a day trip paddle and hike one fall, but I was too busy at the time. I'd love to check it out someday! It looks like an awesome view and a nice hike! I'm not an oatmeal person, I find it too mushy, but I do like granola. This summer on some trips I started pouring a little hot water in my granola, just to warm and soften it a bit. It was a nice warm breakfast, without being too mushy like oatmeal.

    Brilliant video as always. Appreciated the extra time it took to take the shots climbing the hill even though you were hurrying to get up there!
    Really interesting hearing that your setup allowed you to side sleep in the hamock. I've never tried sleeping in a hammock, cos I don't like sleeping on my back, this has made me want to give it a try though. I've got all the other gear, just need the hammock.
    Also, i'd highly recommend the Soto Windmaster stove. It works great in the wind, and has a built in peizo ignitor, so doesn't need a lighter, one less thing to take.
    Thanks again for your content, great to watch for ideas, and to experience with you 🙂

You seemed really out of sorts and were not giving off your "one with nature vibe" until you ate. I'm guessing with all the boat/canoe trouble you skipped lunch and with the calories burned during the hike up you were running on empty when you set up camp.
