I thought I was the only one looking at wilderness areas at highway interchanges saying to myself, "I could totally live in there and no one would even know." Great to know I'm not alone.
I am one with you. Anytime I'm driving along a highway with woods I'm just like "man those woods look interesting. I'd love to setup a tent and sleep there.
I've thought the same thing driving in the US northeast. There are some absolutely massive forested medians between divided highways that go on for miles and miles.
I always thought about doing wilderness between the highways and to grow marijuana there in case this the area where no landscapers be around for months.

@@randomuser8945 he used to do it out of necessity too. And the dos and don’ts imparted through these videos might help someone who has to camp outdoors do it safely and without getting in trouble.
When I and an old friend did a Georgia to California unsupported bicycle tour back in the early 90s, we became masters of stealth camping. These videos are wonderful, as they take me back to those days of my youth. To this day, as I'm driving in awful freeway traffic, I find myself looking into patches of woods off the road and thinking what a great stealth camping site this one or that one would be. My next phase will be when I finally purchase a dual purpose motorcycle. Something I can dip off the highway and camouflage with a tarp or the like. I'm itching to relive those camping memories!
"To this day, as I'm driving in awful freeway traffic, I find myself looking into patches of woods off the road and thinking what a great stealth camping site this one or that one would be." I'm the same way about the skateboarding I used to do. Haven't skated in 25, 30 years, but to this day I still look at every curb, drainage ditch and odd shaped concrete protrusion and start imagining skating on/in it...
Stealth camping, regular camping, acreage updates, barrel boat updates; love them all. Keep 'em coming, Steve, and thank you for lifting my spirit each week.
@@Westcoastgs Thanks for asking. But i don't really wanna bother you with my issues. Long story short, is that my mom 60 years old, has been having some health related issues over the last year, and early this week some tests came back and we found out that she has incurable cancer, that has spread to various place in her body. So it's been a rough week. So anything that can help me get my mind off it for even a few minutes is welcomed. Again thanks for asking. I hope you are well and good, health issues are never fun. What are you dealing with?.
Here's a hint for having a stealthier fire: Dig a hole in the ground for the BBQ or even just to light a regular fire. That way, the flames can get taller before they get to where someone can see them. For that BBQ, I don't think you'd even have to go full Dakota fire pit and dig a ventilation hole on the side or anything. I have made Dakota fire pits several times and they work really well! They basically only smoke when they're first getting started and then they burn so hot that they stop smoking. The other nice thing about them is that you don't have to put as much wood in them to keep them burning. Then, when you're done with the fire, it's easy to just put the dirt right back to cover the hole and it leaves no trace that anyone ever made a fire there. You can always tell when the fire is completely out by seeing if the soil is still hot and that way you know how much water to put on it. It's nice for the plants in the area too because ash is good nutrients for them and plus you'll be watering the plants too when you go to douse the fire. Dakota fire pits are absolutely my favorite fire pits.
“What are houses for except a place to keep your cat.” You are truly a wise man, Steve. Love your videos so much. You inspired me to go camping for the first time in over 30 years.
this guy could be camping in the antartic and still be paranoid......half the video is spent with him worrying about getting caught for some reason...even in the shyttiest god forsaken spots that people wouldnt even want to go near,let alone the homeless. the entire channel and show should be renamed how to be a hobo and suck at it(by choosing the worse location,most uncomfortable,least privacy and the noisiest godforsaken environments) that bridge one my god from the start what a nightmare.....now the express bridges or highway bridges in my country are extremely quiet and whisper soft.....because the goddam bridges are elevated 15m or 50 feet above ground,massive headrooms providing ample shelter yet still able to look at the stars.....over hangs a river which means nice beachfront view..... just stay at home like the cat,at least the cat has wisdom.
Damn Jon your life sounds so boring! You have all the time to complain about someone's videos which don't effect you in any way, but no you choose to spend your energy being a negative sack. Hope you find contentment in your life
I’ve noticed a lot of people are starting a stealth camping channel but they just don’t have your poignant skills and unique abilities to keep outa trouble . We love you Steve !
Drone shots, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, specialty beer with birch sap... Steve is going all out these days, and I'm loving it! 🏕💯🔥🍻Happy Canada Day and Happy 4th of July! 🇨🇦 🇺🇸
Back in the 70's I spent a couple years hitchhiking cross-country, and would basically have to find a place to sleep if I couldn't get a ride. I found that these interchange forests were actually very good options, if large enough, and safer than wandering off the highway where you were most likely to be found and harassed by locals or cops. depending on where in the country you are, these mini forested areas can be pretty big and also isolated.
As someone who lives in a tough neighborhood and never camped a day in his life, also never even new this type of camping existed, I’m hooked lol Good job Steve showing me an inner city kid something I never new. Thanks for the videos.
Last night I slept under the stars and I felt like I didn't have a care in the world , I cook myself a chicken hotpot (lol its a English thing )2 glasses of white wine ,then laid back and the stars was just so beautiful, I got lost in the stars and the next thing I new it was 6am , got up made a coffee and French toast yum yum then I packed up and picked up the rubbish put it in the bin at the end of the track way and come home .lol I feel home sick if I'm not out camping, I hope to fly over to see my sister in brandon Canada in Oct and we are going camping for a week and omg I cant wait to go .
This is proof there is a RUclips channel for absolutely everything. I have to admit I've wondered what it would be like to camp out in really strange places. Especially places where you shouldn't be. Thanks for sharing the video.
Literally one of the only things I miss about being an over-the-road truck driver. Was sleeping in my truck near a highway and hearing the sound of traffic going by. I have fallen asleep to a few of your videos with the sound of traffic.
An actual survival situation where a car is stranded, say in the mountains. You can see trees, but everything is covered in snow. Boughs down, one of those, light that gizmo and use it for your fire's base. It's hot enough to melt snow off the wood you've put around it as a wind break and reflector. As you get wood dryish, you can add it on top of the charcoal. FYI, I keep a picnic sized charcoal grill to use as a fire bowl and several one pound lots of charcoal, vaccume packed with a paper inner bag that has some tinder in it, in the back of my rig when travelling, especially in winter.
I love it, too! Also how he has the latest grass height measurements in case they mow 1st thing in the morning! Making me think Canada is on a perpetual quest to keep their roadside weeds at a quarter of an inch! 😂
Funny enough, I was driving back from Toronto to Ottawa on Sunday and kept looking at the wee forestry between west and east bound. Kept thinking of you! You’re awesome my man. Keep on being you.
Steve i left my parents house and moved to Florida all by myself, I was stealth camping for about a year, I totally understand how you feel and love what you do. RIP 🙏 beautiful wife
How old were you? What years was this? I am fascinated with the idea of living in warm areas like California, during at least Winter. Not planning to. Just seems interesting.
Steve, do you know why I love your videos? Because you are down to earth and you make us feel like we're right there camping with you. You're a good guy. Much love from Texas.
Steve, I know it's risky, but I really appreciate that you give us a look at how stealthy your site looks from the outside... it gives some great perspective. The drone shots are cool, too. Be safe, brother - great video!
I have it in my head that cops all over Canada know who Steve is and if they happen to spot him, there’s just an understanding - thou shalt not hassle Stealthy Steve.
I think its awesome that you pick up garbage that is not yours. That's what makes these stealth camp nights worthwhile and shows people that you truly care about mother nature! Love the vids Steve, please keep em' coming and cheers from Michigan!
Only thing you need is a kid that loves camping that never gets to go and a well behaved dog. I live in Alabama, I would load up my kids, drive to a large rest stop with woods and snow, bring my 120lb Doberman. Mama would drop us off and go find a nice hotel nearby and have her a get away. I worked a lot so i had to get creative with vacations haha. In the summer I would rent a hotel with a nice pool in our home town, its really about being together. Love your vid.
I remember a certain uncle that would throw a family BBQ at a roadside rest stop. There were grills, water fountains and bathrooms, shaded picnic tables even. Pretty much redneck heaven I guess.
There is a section of highway in florida with woods inbetween and its actually quite wide, incredibly wide even. i often thought it would be perfect to camp there, but then the highway sort of splits to go around it and my concern would be cars crashing into it.
"And, of course, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, because what else are you going to eat sitting on the side of the freeway?" I LOL at least once in each of your videos, without fail.
Steve, I think the beauty of your videos hones in on many peoples desire for privacy, stealthy living, low profile and comfort. As a young boy I always thought all I wanted was to live in a tent or some compartment amongst others without standing out. Just to be peaceful, respectful and quiet but also well enough off to do what I enjoy. I get that with your videos! Thank you!
Steve's the best kind of person to have stealth camping in any tiny patch of woods. Goes in, keeps to himself, is careful about dousing the fires when he goes to bed, and he doesn't just clean up but picks up the extra trash other less-considerate people left to leave it nicer than he found it! He's a real gem, and uploads this so we can enjoy the ride too alongside him! Great way to celebrate Canada Day, with a model Canadian!
..... Steve eats better camping on the side of the road, than I do at my apartment with all of the creature comforts and necessities at my disposal..... I would love to see Steve host a camping trip where he brings one or so semi-competent viewers along for an over nighter or weekend , stealth or not, where he can host the event and maybe even cook or teach how to , while having a fun time and maybe swap good Information and ideas about camping.... This would be a great way to raise money for charity or some worthy organization 👍👍
Ha ha ha... maybe a contest... "Win a weekend with @Steve Wallis ". Donate $5.00 per entry, and proceeds go to a charity of winners choice (and of course a weekend of fun). Stipulation... @Crazy Neighbour needs to join in. LOL 😜
My wife and I are currently without a permanent residents. So I've been looking back and taking mental notes in your videos while we look and save money. You really don't know just how helpful you are Steve. Every "step two" is for you dude. 🍻
Oh yes, nothing more soothing than the constant sound of freeways. This upload notification postponed my sleep by 22 minutes, but made me much happier - thank you for what you are doing Steve :)
Just started watching, and already love it so far, solely due to Crazy Neighbour doing the usual hello move whilst driving. I really look forward to my thursday nights. Cheers x.
I have to say, I really enjoy your message about cleaning up the trash around you. I've taken it to heart and have been cleaning up around the campsites I stay at, and even pick up trash I find when I'm just out for a hike. I camped at Grand Teton National Park some weeks back, and even found some trash around the Hidden Falls area, which was really disheartening. Every single person is a steward of the planet, we ought to go out of our way to keep it as nice as we can!
growing up my parents drove it into me to always pick up my stuff and dont dump garbage, its easy enough to take it with you. always seemed like common sense, we arnt dogs that crap on the side of the road after all. over the years ive had friend and the like that just set something down outside of their car and then drive off, and i never understood why they dont just take it with them or dump it in a garbage can 20 feet away. strangest thing happened once, my parents did it as well just set something outside the car, i gave them crap for it for the above reasons. cant even begin to understand why they would do it when they are the ones that always drove it into me to not do that. Of course, anyone that lives on a corner lot knows that its also the garbage can of the neighborhood. no idea what is wrong with people to throw things out of their car, as if maybe they are proving something to society 'you cant control me, ill do what i want, when i want, take this garbage! hah!' ... one of these days ill catch someone and follow them and then dump a bunch of crap in their yard.
I am ecstatic that you have a drone! If any channel needs a drone it's YOUR'S! The perfect way to do an outside stealth-check without risking being seen!
It's good to have that one crazy friend who will help you pull off crazy stuff. Loved the getaway!!😁 Thanks for picking up the trash, Steve! I know those kids that watch you will gain much respect for the world around them by the example you set!!
I live in New Hampshire where there are tons of these spots on the highway, every time my girlfriend and I drive past a spot like this I always ask her if she thinks Steve's in there somewhere.
I have driven past this exact spot countless times and never thought to myself, "I bet Steve's going to camp in there some day." Glad to be proven wrong!
Funny how I've started watching old youtube videos like I used to watch cable tv repeats. I've been thankful for you for a few years now, but I just discovered a new reason to appreciate vloggers. Like so many others, you're re-watchable. :)
Aww, Steve. 😂 Always 1 step ahead of the game!! I love how he ALWAYS has the latest mental estimation of surrounding grass height in anticipation of Canadas pre dawn landscaping rituals! 😂 Because of Steve, I literally sit in the US wondering if Canada is on a perpetual quest to keep ALL roadside vegetation at 1/8 of an inch.
It's a safety issue. The weeds are cut low on the sides of highways so drivers can see what wildlife is lurking there. Sometimes these critters will hide in the growth & then make a dash into traffic & the results are not pretty if someone swerves doing 80 or 100 kph.
The whole day I was looking forward to your video. Then around 8pm my time I suddenly forgot about it. You cannot imagine how happy I was when I saw your notification. I mean, a whole day's worth of anticipation PLUS a great surprise! It doesn't get any better than this! Thanks man, you've made many of my days better!
Ima new viewer and this is the first video I’ve seen with crazy neighbor. I’ve only heard about him until now. Can’t wait to see the rest of them. RIP legend
Thank you Steve for producing a video that shines light on the homeless here in the United States. I know you’re striving for content but your message is real. I hope your viewers will understand that millions of homeless live under these conditions each and every day. Trust me when I say that the guy standing on the corner isn’t living the highlife as everyone may think. Please be generous, kind, and compassionate to these human beings. Think about it. Would you choose to live that way?
I was homeless when I started making videos, and I know it is tough living rough. I try to let people know about how difficult it is to be living rough and for anyone new to learn how to get by day to day without getting arrested. Cheers!
Nothing has brought me more joy today than seeing this notification pop up! Great to see crazy neighbour demonstrating craziness within the first 20seconds! 😂 keep on keeping on guys! X
"....other than a place to keep thier cats." Yep, that's pretty much my reasoning behind an actual house! Steve, your videos are always so relaxing and calming to watch. And this one is no exception... Except for the mad dash for 'Crazy Neighbor's' truck at the end! But still a good time. Can't wait for the next one, be safe, be stealthy!
I remember being homeless , without a car and camping on interstates in the snow but I don't remember the bacon wrapped filet mignon
Probably because hes doing stealth camping not homeless camping.

Everyone knows the emergency BBQ is for when you hit a snag in your plans
Shouldn’t be much different from the first aid snickers bars my dad kept in his tackle box
Emergency BBQ sent me😂
Yes, I was thinking the same as well. Can't say in my 48 years that I have had one!
An actual survival situation where a car is stranded, say in the mountains. You can see trees, but everything is covered in snow. Boughs down, one of those, light that gizmo and use it for your fire's base. It's hot enough to melt snow off the wood you've put around it as a wind break and reflector. As you get wood dryish, you can add it on top of the charcoal. FYI, I keep a picnic sized charcoal grill to use as a fire bowl and several one pound lots of charcoal, vaccume packed with a paper inner bag that has some tinder in it, in the back of my rig when travelling, especially in winter.
With all the doom and gloom in the world, simple stealth camp videos make me happy! Thanks steve
Scam
Love the "Go! Go! Go! " glad you and Crazy Neighbor had a clean get away. :)
I so cracked up at 8:30 where he says, “this isn’t stealthy at all….it’s borderline DANGEROUS.” Hahahah.
always love how he plays this up as being some major felony and the swats gonna come after him if hes found
Gotta love Steve and his anxiety lol
@@andydougy4347 yeah he always has the look of guilt on his face ...Nothing to see here officer lol
I think if you actually try it, you be more scared as you thought you be.
In Canada, the biggest crime he's committing is having an open can of beer in his hand.
I love it, too! Also how he has the latest grass height measurements in case they mow 1st thing in the morning! Making me think Canada is on a perpetual quest to keep their roadside weeds at a quarter of an inch! 😂
Funny enough, I was driving back from Toronto to Ottawa on Sunday and kept looking at the wee forestry between west and east bound. Kept thinking of you! You’re awesome my man. Keep on being you.
This was like watching a younger brother describe how good he was at hide and seek when you never even looked for him in the first place.
😄😄😄
u must be new
😭😭😭
exactly
you hid so well i gave up finding you😂
Steve i left my parents house and moved to Florida all by myself, I was stealth camping for about a year, I totally understand how you feel and love what you do. RIP 🙏 beautiful wife
How old were you? What years was this? I am fascinated with the idea of living in warm areas like California, during at least Winter. Not planning to. Just seems interesting.
RIP Crazy Neighbor, what a legend you are.
Word.
Steve eats better stealth camping on the side of the highway than I do sitting at home in my kitchen! Love the videos!
He gets paid enough from RUclips to eat steak and lobster every day
What do you eat if snap-frozen pasta and veggies with some bacon is better for you?
If women don't find you handsome and your walmart is out of duct tape be more like steve.
That bacon wrapped filet mignon looked absolutely disgusting. It looked like some meat glued shit you'd buy at the dollar store.
Steve, do you know why I love your videos? Because you are down to earth and you make us feel like we're right there camping with you. You're a good guy.
Much love from Texas.
I agree
Much love from Montréal as well!
Top tier episode of camping with Steve this week. THIS IS WHAT WE SUB FOR
Ah man rewatching this makes me miss glen rest in peace crazy neighbor
Steve, I know it's risky, but I really appreciate that you give us a look at how stealthy your site looks from the outside... it gives some great perspective. The drone shots are cool, too. Be safe, brother - great video!
Thanks for everything you do for us! Always look forward to Thursdays- Camping with Steve!
Stay safe and cheers 🍻
Going through some hard times personally watching Steve makes me forget about life for a little while. Appreciate the content 🫡
Hold on, stay strong. Hard times have a certain habit: they eventually dissappear.
It may take a while sometimes, but eventually you find what you were looking for.
Like the song says, "When you're going thru hell, DON'T STOP!!"
When you going through hard time, it makes you stronger. The longer it lasts, the stronger you will be.
Because of you Steve, every time I’m driving, I subconsciously scope out secret little camping spots!
"I don't know why people even have houses, other than a place to keep their cats" -- Steve Wallis 😹😻💖
I commented the same before I saw yours. Probably others will as well.
Reason #1 mosquitoes.
Literally the case.
I laughed out loud at that one. My cat, on his personal couch, agrees!
Absolutely!
I have it in my head that cops all over Canada know who Steve is and if they happen to spot him, there’s just an understanding - thou shalt not hassle Stealthy Steve.
I think its awesome that you pick up garbage that is not yours. That's what makes these stealth camp nights worthwhile and shows people that you truly care about mother nature! Love the vids Steve, please keep em' coming and cheers from Michigan!
Yep, it wouldn't be camping with steve if he didn't virtue signal 10 times about picking up garbage so he can get the attaboy's
Am watching this after hearing of Beautiful Wife's tragic passing... 😥
I've always found "Camping With Steve" to be a calming retreat.
Loved the overhead drone shots, they gave a good "big picture" of where you stealthed. Happy Canada Day!
the fight is done you lost
Gotta love Thursday Nights Camping with Steve ! Happy Canada Day Everyone ! 🇨🇦
The feeling is even better when u don't realize it's Thursday and boom New Steve video 📸 love it
Only thing you need is a kid that loves camping that never gets to go and a well behaved dog. I live in Alabama, I would load up my kids, drive to a large rest stop with woods and snow, bring my 120lb Doberman. Mama would drop us off and go find a nice hotel nearby and have her a get away. I worked a lot so i had to get creative with vacations haha. In the summer I would rent a hotel with a nice pool in our home town, its really about being together. Love your vid.
And have her a getaway with the hotel manager... Nixxa please
@@MasterPoe54 Sounds like something you're familiar with, you can say please but I can't help you.
@@MasterPoe54 I'm sorry for you, smh
I remember a certain uncle that would throw a family BBQ at a roadside rest stop. There were grills, water fountains and bathrooms, shaded picnic tables even. Pretty much redneck heaven I guess.
"These grills are great to have in your car in case you have to have an emergency barbecue." Steve. I am wheezing with your monologues in this video.
I always find myself needing an emergency roadside BBQ 🤣
😐
@@dimebagdarrell4949 Dimebag! I love your work! I still play "Cemetery Gates" and get sad thinking of your death.
He literally just did the thing I have always wanted to do since I was a kid every time I passed a high way interchange 😂😂😂 this man is just amazing
Awesome! Cheers
Yes, me too, many times, I see a bit of woods along a highway, thinking someone could camp or reside there stealthily!
No motorcycle ...?circus comes to town .
There is a section of highway in florida with woods inbetween and its actually quite wide, incredibly wide even. i often thought it would be perfect to camp there, but then the highway sort of splits to go around it and my concern would be cars crashing into it.
You realize that you have to do it now more than ever? :) Can't let youtube take away your dreams
"And, of course, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, because what else are you going to eat sitting on the side of the freeway?" I LOL at least once in each of your videos, without fail.
Escargot?
That's NOT funny, the man's life is clearly falling apart and you're making jokes???? Inhuman behaviour. Ignore these people Steve, we care about you.
Eee dr rea
The only things missing to make him a true camper are an open Steel Reserve and a dog.
I can tell you, he's getting it right. This is a solo experience. But how do you keep the scent of the grill from giving you up?
Steve, I think the beauty of your videos hones in on many peoples desire for privacy, stealthy living, low profile and comfort. As a young boy I always thought all I wanted was to live in a tent or some compartment amongst others without standing out. Just to be peaceful, respectful and quiet but also well enough off to do what I enjoy. I get that with your videos! Thank you!
This looks like it’s gonna be great with an assist from Crazy Neighbor! Happy Canada Day guys!!
Steve I remember you a long time ago, sleeping in Rest Areas with your first hammock. You have come a long ways, THANKS STEVE. Enjoyed them all.
Steve's the best kind of person to have stealth camping in any tiny patch of woods. Goes in, keeps to himself, is careful about dousing the fires when he goes to bed, and he doesn't just clean up but picks up the extra trash other less-considerate people left to leave it nicer than he found it! He's a real gem, and uploads this so we can enjoy the ride too alongside him! Great way to celebrate Canada Day, with a model Canadian!
I love how crazy neighbor knew exactly what to do. He always looked out for Steve.
..... Steve eats better camping on the side of the road, than I do at my apartment with all of the creature comforts and necessities at my disposal..... I would love to see Steve host a camping trip where he brings one or so semi-competent viewers along for an over nighter or weekend , stealth or not, where he can host the event and maybe even cook or teach how to , while having a fun time and maybe swap good Information and ideas about camping.... This would be a great way to raise money for charity or some worthy organization 👍👍
Would totally do this.
I’m in👍
Oh wow same here...🤗
I live across the pond but I would be so up for it regardless.
Ha ha ha... maybe a contest... "Win a weekend with @Steve Wallis ". Donate $5.00 per entry, and proceeds go to a charity of winners choice (and of course a weekend of fun). Stipulation... @Crazy Neighbour needs to join in. LOL 😜
legend.
My wife and I are currently without a permanent residents. So I've been looking back and taking mental notes in your videos while we look and save money. You really don't know just how helpful you are Steve. Every "step two" is for you dude. 🍻
I hope everything works out for your wife and you.
Well this isn't a living. It is surviving. He does not do this full time. Go live in your parent's home until you get a job!
@@frankh.5378 Not everyone is lucky enough to have a safety net like this... RevolutionaryTruth, hope everything works out for you!
@@frankh.5378 actually we are living out of a uhaul AND I work at a elderly home. You need Jesus!🤣
All the best for your future. Hope things improve soon.
Nice to see Crazy Neighbor even through he has shed the body and moved on to the bigger and better things.
Oh yes, nothing more soothing than the constant sound of freeways.
This upload notification postponed my sleep by 22 minutes, but made me much happier - thank you for what you are doing Steve :)
Loved the addition of the drone footage. I appreciate how you always seem to be trying to evolve as you go on.
Stealth camps, packs out his own trash and everyone else’s. Now you’re camping with Steve! 🌲
Dude eats better camping on the side of a highway than I do with a stove lol
😂😂
Steve stealth camping never gets old. I love watching these ones by the road but I actually prefer them in winter.
You two are the best partners in crime!! Looking forward to y’all’s river raft adventure, hope you’re doing one this year!
Just started watching, and already love it so far, solely due to Crazy Neighbour doing the usual hello move whilst driving. I really look forward to my thursday nights. Cheers x.
I love these highway videos the most!😁 There’s something so soothing and cozy about watching traffic go by from a safe, stationary spot
I have to say, I really enjoy your message about cleaning up the trash around you. I've taken it to heart and have been cleaning up around the campsites I stay at, and even pick up trash I find when I'm just out for a hike. I camped at Grand Teton National Park some weeks back, and even found some trash around the Hidden Falls area, which was really disheartening. Every single person is a steward of the planet, we ought to go out of our way to keep it as nice as we can!
growing up my parents drove it into me to always pick up my stuff and dont dump garbage, its easy enough to take it with you. always seemed like common sense, we arnt dogs that crap on the side of the road after all. over the years ive had friend and the like that just set something down outside of their car and then drive off, and i never understood why they dont just take it with them or dump it in a garbage can 20 feet away.
strangest thing happened once, my parents did it as well just set something outside the car, i gave them crap for it for the above reasons. cant even begin to understand why they would do it when they are the ones that always drove it into me to not do that.
Of course, anyone that lives on a corner lot knows that its also the garbage can of the neighborhood. no idea what is wrong with people to throw things out of their car, as if maybe they are proving something to society 'you cant control me, ill do what i want, when i want, take this garbage! hah!' ... one of these days ill catch someone and follow them and then dump a bunch of crap in their yard.
I am ecstatic that you have a drone! If any channel needs a drone it's YOUR'S! The perfect way to do an outside stealth-check without risking being seen!
It's good to have that one crazy friend who will help you pull off crazy stuff. Loved the getaway!!😁
Thanks for picking up the trash, Steve! I know those kids that watch you will gain much respect for the world around them by the example you set!!
Aaah! There is nothing like the peace and quiet of nature.
Bro, nature definitely isn’t the side of a freeway😂😂
Lol. That's what I was thinking. Definitely not my kind of getaway.
@@hunter62207
Whoosh
@@margyb7469 w
Whoosh woosh
Steve I love you man, just a 23 year old figuring out life and you make me realise just how simple it all can be. Respect my dawg
Don't make your life complicated. Simple is best.
I think Camping with Steve every time I drive past places like this along the highway. I am definitely a Steve junkie!
I live near so many places they he could do this.... down side State Troopers like to use these places for speed traps.
I live in New Hampshire where there are tons of these spots on the highway, every time my girlfriend and I drive past a spot like this I always ask her if she thinks Steve's in there somewhere.
Me too!!!!! Haha… to the point where my partner has to tell me to concentrate on the road lol…
I have driven past this exact spot countless times and never thought to myself, "I bet Steve's going to camp in there some day." Glad to be proven wrong!
Every storm drain, culvert, or pile of rocks could be hiding Steve.
Now I bet every time you pass that spot you think: "Steve camped here one day" haha
Funny how I've started watching old youtube videos like I used to watch cable tv repeats. I've been thankful for you for a few years now, but I just discovered a new reason to appreciate vloggers. Like so many others, you're re-watchable. :)
Aww, Steve. 😂 Always 1 step ahead of the game!! I love how he ALWAYS has the latest mental estimation of surrounding grass height in anticipation of Canadas pre dawn landscaping rituals! 😂 Because of Steve, I literally sit in the US wondering if Canada is on a perpetual quest to keep ALL roadside vegetation at 1/8 of an inch.
It's a safety issue. The weeds are cut low on the sides of highways so drivers can see what wildlife is lurking there. Sometimes these critters will hide in the growth & then make a dash into traffic & the results are not pretty if someone swerves doing 80 or 100 kph.
Every time is see you have a new video, I always say to my head “this guy man, where was he camping at now” lol I love it.
It's always good to know a friend crazier than yourself. They make life sweeter, colorful and and lot more fun.
10:50 “like trying to find a new super heavy isotope” 😂 excellent analogy.
The whole day I was looking forward to your video.
Then around 8pm my time I suddenly forgot about it.
You cannot imagine how happy I was when I saw your notification.
I mean, a whole day's worth of anticipation PLUS a great surprise!
It doesn't get any better than this!
Thanks man, you've made many of my days better!
At the end of every video as Steve is walking off I always mouth to myself "the perfect crime" 😂😂
"I don't even know why people have houses other than a place to keep their cats." That's classic!
Ima new viewer and this is the first video I’ve seen with crazy neighbor. I’ve only heard about him until now. Can’t wait to see the rest of them. RIP legend
Thank you Steve for producing a video that shines light on the homeless here in the United States. I know you’re striving for content but your message is real. I hope your viewers will understand that millions of homeless live under these conditions each and every day. Trust me when I say that the guy standing on the corner isn’t living the highlife as everyone may think. Please be generous, kind, and compassionate to these human beings. Think about it. Would you choose to live that way?
I was homeless when I started making videos, and I know it is tough living rough. I try to let people know about how difficult it is to be living rough and for anyone new to learn how to get by day to day without getting arrested. Cheers!
Amen to that stuff
@@campingwithsteve hugs 🫂
@@ihopcsx To the tough living rough stuff. :)
Agreed, but unfortunately there are always a few making money panhandling before they drive away in their new Mercedes
Crazy neighbor being the get away driver is always nice to see
"Don't know why people even have houses other than a place to keep their cats"
Where I'm at in life! hahaha
That cracked me up too, since he adopted one and I'm a person with cats!
oh what a garbage remark , Steve
Thanks for doing your part and going above and beyond policing the area! love your adventures
Well, pooping in your own toilet is always nice.. 😏
@@rythemzlatin good one!
Watching these 2 years later and seeing Crazy Neighbor breaks my heart knowing he is gone, poor Steve lost his wife then his BFF.
I love the videos you do by the freeway! The house I lived in as a kid was by a freeway, so the sound puts me to sleep so fast
good ol white noise
Freedom on the freeway
Stealth tastic 😁👍
so youve only seen 5 mins of each video?
@@tested123 lol, sometimes he camps by railroad tracks! I make it at least 10 minutes in those videos!
Nothing has brought me more joy today than seeing this notification pop up! Great to see crazy neighbour demonstrating craziness within the first 20seconds! 😂 keep on keeping on guys! X
Hahaha😆👍
I was hoping Crazy neighbor was going to camp with Steve ,but he was just the chauffer 😂
Maybe CN will be stealthing at the Tree house 😁
Or building 3rd storey to the Tree house 😁
@@compostcorner5934 I know right! I love them as a duo! 😄
@@heyaitsjen1016 Me too
The Steve &Crazy show 👍😁
"....other than a place to keep thier cats." Yep, that's pretty much my reasoning behind an actual house! Steve, your videos are always so relaxing and calming to watch. And this one is no exception... Except for the mad dash for 'Crazy Neighbor's' truck at the end! But still a good time. Can't wait for the next one, be safe, be stealthy!
remember showers and toilets!
Covert ......cats and dogs ....with a mission .or science project.
My cat lived in a tent with me for a year, from California to Montana to Alaska. I think that was her happiest, as wild as it gets
We live in California 😒 but we just got to spend the night in a tent in the mountains near Augusta, and it was amazing
