Exploring Stunning Public Lands- What We Found Will Shock You!

- Опубликовано: 23 окт 2023
- This week's video I stayed close to home. I'm taking you to a forest that's 30 miles from my driveway. I haven't spent a lot of time camping in these woods. I've lived here my whole life, yet I've explored it very little. Something about this place is unsettling. It has its own energy.
Speaking of that, my Go-pro batteries were getting sucked down super-fast all weekend. Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe there is something more to this forest.
This recreation land is better known for having top class mountain bike trails, and that has brought back life to this small town. It has gone through a complete transition since the 90's. I have ridden thousands of miles on those trails.....yet rarely go into the part of the forest you saw this weekend. Saturday morning, I stopped at a few businesses in town. I had to pick up some gear for the weekend. When I asked about dispersed camping up in the mines I was told " I wouldn't go out there". They pointed me to a State Forest that is known for having safe dispersed camping.
There may be a few people who don't like what I have pointed out near their homes or cabins in what they call "Gods County". But the struggles that are delt with in the big cities are also faced here. I'm not trying to capitalize on a hot topic or make light of the situation. I'm just sharing my weekends exactly how I experience them. I really appreciate you following along on my adventures.
Don't forget to check out "Jack of all Trades", Ed sent me the fire starters along with a few other gifts.

Ed does a lot of how to and review videos for outdoor living, fishing rod building, ATV repair, home projects, knife making, personal protection, and even automotive repairs. He is the Jack of all trades.

So many camper utubers not only leave their campsite clean but do alot of xtra cleanup. Thank you all for taking such good care of the land. You are truly appreciated.
“Make no mistake. I’m the baddest thing out here” I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
We camp on BLM land a lot and we’ve seen our share of trashed out areas. We always pick up the trash and clean up the spot we picked both before and after we use it. Even what you did, is a big help. Thanks for doing that and making this video.
It’s getting worse and worse all over Colorado as well… all these people moving from the city love to trash the mountains
It really takes so little to bag up what can't be burned in the campfire. I don't get why people feel the need to trash good areas. I live near the Niagara escarpment and used to camp in the same spot in there every year, a few times a year. Seemed other people used that spot too, problem is, they'd leave their busted axles there instead of taking them to the junkyard with the rest of the car, along with mountains of other trash. I'd make 4 special trips up to the spot per summer just to do a cleanup and burn. After 2 years of me not going there anymore, the place got closed off. I can only imagine what it looks like back there now
@makaylaforbes6719 It's sad to see how people will ruin everything good.
@@KennyOfAllTrades it really is, but what's worse is the same people who trash the free places so they get closed off are the ones who will complain about having to pay $70/night to camp in an established park. I feel like asking them what they expect when they wreck all the crown land they used before
@@Closdmon I heat ya there. I live in a tourist town with a very large beach. When it's just us locals here, the shoreline stays clean. As soon as the people come up from the city, garbage literally rolls in the breeze here, and it's not due to a shortage of cans along the beachfront and in the parks. They just don't want to walk 10 feet to dispose of it properly
Selfishness has no place in the camping community. Glad you are pointing this stuff out. When I leave a campsite I leave it better than when I arrived.
Thanks for making a difference out there Kenny. I’m not from MN but I appreciate the way you look after the land. Bravo!
I appreciate that! The support for the channel really helps. Thank you so much.
@@KennyOfAllTradesOMG, your area is a disaster. Bless you.
There aren't enough words. You're simply an amazing guy, Kenny.
Thank you
MAYBE THE NOISE YOU HEAR IS BIGFOOT
Good job Kenny.People also should learn how to keep place clean.
I told you so kenny! 😉😅😃😂😀
That you are a good guy! Would it be alright with you if I sent you and your family a Christmas card? 🎅 🎄 🎁 ⛄ ❄
Terrible that people leave places in that condition, but huge props to you and others who try their best to better them. Thanks much Kenny!
Some people are just pigs.
@@angelmist4253 Only Pigs (the animals), are cleaner and nicer! 🐷🐖
There’s a massive segment of the human population who are a lost cause.
Looks like a good boy scout service project in the making. Scouts are always looking for projects to advance their rank. with your leadership a difference can be made. Thank you for your respect of the land.
Excellent idea!
@christineforbes2877 Unfortunately, this spot is now closed to the public.im glad I was able to see the old mine pits while I had a chance. The state decided that since it was too much to up keep, they sold the 800 acres of public land to a private entity. 😒
Thank you so much for cleaning up after someones lapse in character. I am 75 years old and I live in Eastern Washington State. I was raised by a man that belonged to a group of men that packed minnow fish into lakes in the North Cascade Mountains in Washington. He used to tell stories of seeing messes like what you've found and it really used to hurt him. He and his friends would pack it up and bring it home and put it out for our garbage man. Have a good time camping and be careful.
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I appreciate your story.
Hello madgekilbourn5256 🖐, I also live in Washington state only on the west side, and you know, a lot of places over here at various campsites, it's still the same problem that you and Kenny have seen, I just don't get it, why are people so lazy when it comes to taking the trash home, they brought the trash in? 🤔
It was great talking with you Madge, I sincerely hope that you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy new year! ☃🎄❄
Take care my friend! 🤗
@@KennyOfAllTrades I sure do too Kenny and Madge! 🤗
This week your video came with an amazing message. Kenny you're a good man. I remember as a kid we belonged to a camping group that was part of The National Campers & Hikers Association (NCHA). Our group of campers did conservation events like trash pick ups, tree plantings, river clean ups, built pic-nic tables for parks & many other projects as a large group. I'm so grateful for being taught as a kid that nature & the forests are to be respected, cared for & enjoyed. I just wish everyone was taught things like I was. Our world would be a much nicer to be in. Keep being the good guy you are because it does make a difference. 😊❤
That sounds like a wonderful club. It's too bad I don't hear of those groups around here anymore. I was part of a group all through high school. It was called the Natural Resources Club. We would do school sponcered weekend trips. (Icefishing, hunting, camping, and community events with the FFA) During summer break, we would go on a two week Portage in the Boundary Waters. It helped cement my love for the outdoors. It's important to have those groups for the younger generations.
Unbelievably disheartening to know people would leave that mess in our forest areas....ANYbody's nature areas. 😢
Thank you for always being the one who steps up, and all the campers like you. ❤
Hi. That sound that you thought sounded like a baby crying might be a screech owl. I have a really amazing video of five owlets that come to my balcony every night for weeks and hopped around the railing. The balcony was up on the second floor and in the cedars. They got accustomed to me and would not fly off if I stepped out and talked while I took the videos. Amazing moments for me.
That sounds so awesome. I checked out the screech owl, and you are right. That is exactly what it was.
Or a loon?
Thanks, Kenny, for taking the time to clean up the area and educating us the importance of cleaning our environment. I just think people who do this either do not care or think someone else will clean up. Either way, it’s a crying shame and people need to do better. See ya next Tuesday ❤
Kenny your love of the land and nature is awesome you don't hesitate to try to clean up some one else's mess to try to renew a camp site I admire you for that . Like you have always said if everyone did that cleaned up a site if it's messed up and cleaned up after themselves all camping areas would all look great . If people don't clean up areas may become closed .
My thoughts the court system could solve this problem. People who are going through probation should be required to clean this up!
Absolutely agree 👍🏻
Remember years ago a commercial on TV about a Native American looking at some trash on the side of a road and you see a tear coming down his cheek? What do you think if he saw that trash? Here in New Hampshire we have weekend cleaning parties where volunteers with trucks clean up certain areas in the forest. Sad to say but, maybe closing Areas to vehicles is the best idea so us people who respect nature can enjoy it and not be afraid to go there. Even the beavers are trying to close the place by dropping trees across the road. You're a good man and I love you're video's. ❤❤❤🎃🎃🎃
I was thinking those beavers knew exactly what they were doing. I found 4 more trees downed over the trails. That didn't make it into the video....but I think your right!
Beautiful area. As a Michigander, I understand completely your passion for the waters and the forest.
Thanks for watching.
I am sitting here at work in the early morning thinking about your video and it reminds me when I was a kid and we would go on a road trip. You would see trash on the highway and you would be shocked or you would never throw your gum out of the car. You remind us of what our values need to be. Respect for each other and and our beautiful country. Thanks for everything you do each weekend. Love the channel and you. 😊
Thank you so much!
Kenny
The noise you heard was a Vixen aka female fox .
It is a scary sound if you never heard it before!
It’s sad how people have became so disrespectful of property that it is set aside for all of us to enjoy.
Keep doing what you are doing maybe people will catch on .
That’s what I was thinking as well. Out west it could also be a mountain lion as they often sound like babies
Ed ,from Jack of all Trades, and I served together in the Minnesota Army National Guard. He is one of the most capable people I know. You'll love his banana bread. It was a real treat in Iraq.
Thank you so much, Kenny, for cleaning up the campsites. God Bless you!
Kenny, I just have to say..I grew up camping in 49 states. (no, I haven't gotten to Hawaii). Definitely we were good stewards and appreciated the opportunity to explore & experience the varied beautiful areas of North America. I am also an RN, well aware of the issues plaguing our society as a whole. Thank you for exposing the problems as well as the beauty to be found everywhere. That binder will grow by 10 fold in no time due to your depth and value to all of your followers. Be well.
Thank you so much!
I love the autumnal colours coming through. We don't see much of that in Australia(except in the suburbs where a lot of the trees and plants tend to be non native).Eucalypts don't really drop their leaves,maybe a branch or two but leaves not so much.
Thanks for watching!!
My husband and I love your channel!! I think it is wonderful that you don't turn a blind eye to these areas and you leave them better then you found them. Keep up the great work.
Bless you for caring about the beautiful land we have the priviledge of sharing with others. It is such a shame that people can't respect it more. There's a state park about an hour from our small town and I used to love going there. My niece and I were there about a month ago and I just wanted to grieve for what used to be. We used to sit on a picnic table and watched the ducks, beautiful birds I hadn't seen before, see which goose is going to chase me this time and watch all the babies that were starting their lives there. It wasn't the same and we were told they didn't have the resources to take care of it as well anymore. Don't people care enough to get some groups together and volunteer to help do what needs to be done? Maybe even just once a month? I would have tried to do some cleaning as you were good enough to do too but now I am 70 years old and toting a pacemaker so don't feel so confident in that kind of work anymore. Everything worth having is worth working at. That was such a beautiful area you were in and even better after you left it. 👍
Thank you so much. It is sad how this is happening all over the place. This was the worst site I've been too, but it's becoming more and more common.
Thanks for the ride along. Thanks for picking up there too. Once a year they do a big clean up in Sutton Alaska - I picked up everything you found and more - it is amazing what people will toss out like that. My heart breaks for the homeless - there is much more to it than just drugs - there are deep root issues. I tell people it is OUR job to clean up behind others - as clearly the others don't and won't. I keep an extra 50 gal back and picker uppers with me when we camp for that reason . Keep up the good work! Your channel is amazing!!!!!!!!!
You are a camper from my own heart! Thank you for picking up trash. I'd pick up trash with ya'll, but I live in Oregon. Keep up the good work😊
You are awesome, and yes, I worked at Teen Challenge in your neck of the woods for a while, and it's sad to see so many people afflicted by addiction. Thank you for all you do. I really appreciate you.
Thank you!
It's so sad when you go out camping, to see people's trash. Whenever we go to the mountains, I always carry a couple garbage sacks along in my pocket while hiking around. It surprises me how people bring their trash in, but just can't seen to take it back and dispose of it properly. So Sad ..
Thanks for all you do!! Blessings 💕
Thanks for helping keep our parks a little cleaner. Homeless problem isn't exclusive to city and no matter where it is, it's sad to see impact. Not sure answer, but every little bit we do helps.
Well said! Thank you so much!
"Ah, i left my keys in the camper." I definitely felt that, xD I keep them attached to my belt. Otherwise, they will disappear, lol
It's nice to see other people trying to keep these places clean.
Wow!! Unbelievable about the trash! Looks beautiful there!! We usually clean up around our campsite too!!
Thank you for that. If we all did a little bit, we could make a difference. Thanks for watching.
What a shame that some people have so much disrespect for Mother Nature!
Kenny, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…you sir are a gentleman and a scholar for doing your job in cleaning up after others!!! 👏 👏
Yes, thank you for ending the video before getting choked up…I already started to shed a tear or three!
BTW your grandchild will be extremely proud of Grandpa KOAT…that I know for sure…..
Man oh man…that ribeye and shrimps looked scrumptdelicious 🤤 😋
As always, stay safe out there…..
P.S. Those pieces of plastic, with Velcro strapping, are a back brace. I wore one for 6 months after my back surgery. I referred to mine as a turtle shell lol
Thanks Mike
Lovely video Kenny! And kudos on cleaning up as much as possible. It’s so frustrating that others, probably a small minority, treat nature and the rest of society with such contempt.
I really like that you are an active steward for the camping areas & the message is clear...if we don't take care of these special places, the state just closes them. We used to do the same thing, pick up trash around the campsite, tidy things up & leave the wood we didn't burn for the next folks. I just wish more people had the same mindset to cherish these special places. Thank You for another Amazing Adventure Kenny....see ya on the next one!
I have been doing Clean up on our Earth since I was Little and still do. It's so nice to see others respecting Mother Earth and taking care of her . GOD Bless you and all like us.
Ken. I have camped all over America! In the early 70s my parents had a cottage in Canada on lake Nippissing! We would go to the dumps with fish heads ect and put them on the hood of our Station wagon and bears would come right up to the windows at night! I was about 8 years old!! So exciting as a kid!! Then people did stupid things and no more going to the dumps!!! MY father owned a huge RV Company so camping was EVERYTHING!! My wife and I have a permanent site at the Campground and a Beautiful Rockwood travel trailer..The last true place to escape from this horrible world!!! God bless you!❤
This is an awesome message! I imagine myself as an 8 year old seeing those bears. That would have been the coolest thing ever!! I'm happy you found the channel. It's great having an online community of like-minded people. Enjoy your time in nature, and stay safe.
as a young guy between the ages of 7 and 36 you would never believe the places i got up to alone or with friends. NO WHERE, southern Labrador. Goose Bay RCAF base, left over from ww2 Ferry Command. wild place, hadn't changed since the glaciers melted. we thought absolutely nothing being there as kids and even adults in all seasons and all manner of storms - snow, thunder and rain... we loved it. pushing 60 with a minor heart attack and type 2 diabetes under my belt now i would hesitate. also, the more remote as kids the more we liked it but now i am too aware the deeper into the woods i go along old logging trails, paths the more likely i am to meet up with people who probably don't have my best interests in mind, at least in my neck of the woods.
the outdoors is to be enjoyed to the fullest but the litter is unacceptable. leave as small a footprint on the land as possible. best wishes!
Well said! Thanks for the comment
Ty for making our world a better place❤
Awesome views for sure.
It's too bad a few Bad apples have to ruin it for the rest, but unfortunately that's the way it is in this day and age. It is great that you do more than your part to help clean up those sites and set a good example for others!
Thank you Kenny!!
It's all been voiced before, yet it's worth repeating. You're truly exceptional. Your caring nature extends to tidying up after others. Your positivity radiates and life's trials hardly rattle you. Your ability to find the silver lining is remarkable. May the fishing gods bless you, my friend!
FISH ON, FISH ON🎣
This comment is so nice. I really appreciate your kind words.
From Ohio but traveling to southern states I’ve noticed trash dumpsters at certain road intersections. Good idea even at taxpayer expense. County governments require the purchase annually of a dog license so why not the requirement of a license for residential garbage collection?
You're a good man. Thank you for dealing with the trash
Im a New Subscriber today my friend.. I Applaud & Respect your great attitude. . One sentence you mentioned at beginning told me everything i needed to know about how Sincere your Heart is, when you said you were glad there weren't any baby foods/clothes etc. You must be a great Dad. Thank you for doing all this. Do it now while your young & Healthy. Im now disabled, needing double knee replacements lower back surgery & ive developed neuropathy in rt foot all in last couple yrs. Healthy in top shape my whole life & all of a sudden I get hurt, no insurance lost everything after I'd helped many many families realize their dreams remodeling their homes, always giving Everyone a break. Im very grateful for my life, praying i bounce back & get healthy again. I refuse to pass onto Glory in this condition. God Bless you Brother. Wish I could be there helping you clean all that up. Its absolutely Gorgeous Country.. God's Country. Bless you my friend.

This was such a kind comment. I appreciate all feedback.
Thank you for sharing your travels with all of us. It is so very sad to see our beautiful areas being trashed, but that will never discourage me from cleaning them up whenever I have the opportunity.
My husband and I love your channel! We live Oklahoman and don't have much of those beautiful forests. Thank you for encouraging people to pick up trash. LEAVE IT BETTER THAN YOU FOUND IT!
The Oklahoma I know, from working the oilfields, is beautiful. Down along the southern border with Texas is all kinds of wonderful parks. Turner Falls and the Arbuckle Mountains, Wichita Mountains NWR, Red Rock Canyon SP, Quartz Mountain. I could go on and on. My wife and I have actually gone to some of these places on vacation...and we live in the Ozark Mountains. LOL.
Thank you for your KIND heart, time & idea❤
So nice of you
Hey Kenny! Let me tell you it’s definitely option 2! I, like so many of your viewers truly enjoy being with you on these weekend trips! I was blown away with the beauty of the area that you were camping in!
It breaks my heart to see how people ruin what they should protect and cherish! I get upset if I see one piece of trash on my road let alone the amount left there. If I lived closer I would definitely love to help to clean these areas up and return them to the natural beauty they deserve! Thank you for your efforts in this regard and as always see you next week! Take care! T.
You've got 24k + subscribers if everyone chipped in half a buck it would clean this site up and possibly many more !!! Here's my contribution to keeping Michigan beautiful 🌻
This is so cool! I really appreciate it. Thank you so much!
YOUR SUCH A DECENT LOVELY GUY KENNY AND SO IS YOUR PARTNER
SO SO SO KIND TO CLEAN THE CRAP AND MAKE IT DECENT
BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
NOTHING WORSE THAN HUMANS
BE CAREFUL OF THE NEEDLES
TAKE CARE MY FRIENDS ❤❤
BECKY 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 XXXXXXXXX
Thank you so much. You make an excellent point. People should be aware of needles. That poke through skin sooooo easily.
Thank you for show beautiful Minnesota. I grew up in the country there and enjoyed the lakes and going to the cabin deep in the woods. But that was 50 years ago, so thanks you for helping to keep her clean. I hope to go back with a awesome camper and stay a few weeks fishing for walleye, lake trout, bass and northern.
Glad you enjoyed it
Kenny, I think your sound is either a Bobcat or Cougar.
That is so disgusting on how that site was left. My $ contribution please use to help on supply's. Maybe more contractor trash bags or save your back with what us old codgers call a grabber! Lol. Very admirable how you take care of these sites. Our Sheriff's Dept. has a inmate work program. Guys that are in for commitments or petty stuff have a opportunity to get out in a work crew and do projects like this clean up. I have a family cemetery that is in the woods that ended up being a party zone. My 5X Grandad who was a Revolutionary War Soldier is buried there. The Sheriff's Work crew came in and did a fantastic job of cleaning, pruning, weed whacking.The VA came in and replaced his tombstone. The guys really like getting out to do stuff and they really do a good job or they get yanked off the work crew.
Thanks again for bringing us along Kenny!
Thank you so much Richard. I really like that idea. I was gonna apply for the sentence to serve crew lead back I the day. I never even thought about those guys. I might have to make a call. Thanks for sharing the story. That might be an excellent way to clean that place up.
Hey Richard, Kenny and I were talking that we had not seen you comment on his last video and wanted to make sure you are doing well. Thinking of you.
Hi Mandi and Kenny, Thank you so much for your concern! That is awesome!!!! What nice people.
Things kind of went to heck here last week, nothing too serious, Son's 40th Bday, Grandson's Bday, got sicker than a dog but all is good now.
My 14 year old Golden Retriever Cooper then got sick. I was up at midnight this AM taking care of him. A couple of hrs later I helped him get up and he had a major heart attack while I was helping him. Long story short we took him to the Vet. this morning and did the final act of love for him. He was my Buddy and no way I would let him suffer. Now my 4 year old Golden Missy is missing her old buddy, they were like a old married couple. She's getting a lot of extra attention and love.
Again, thanks for caring!..........Rick
@@richardkoch8752
I’m glad to hear you are ok. I’m also sorry to hear about Cooper. It’s so hard to lose our fur babies. Thoughts and comfort to you and your family.
Thank you, Mandi. You and Kenny are such good people. @@mandib757
Dude, I've said it before, you are an inspiration! I can feel how much you care about the outdoors. Keep it up!
Thank you, I appreciate the comment.
Great spot to camp! Those baby sounds are screech owls.
We are all responsible for taking care of our world. Thanks
I used to ride dual sport motorcycles for many years. More street legal dirt bike type motorcycles. I was able to do a lot of really rough terrain. One ride here locally, I was exploring this faint two track up in the mountains and saw what looked like a fresher trail branching off. I followed it. It went up over a low ridge and dropped down into this small dell back in the trees and brush. Six cars and trucks parked back in there in various stages of being stripped down. A back woods chop shop. I thank the lucky stars that I didn't roll up on anybody working back there. I took pics and sent them to the local Sheriff office. I was contacted a few months later by a local guy who had his stolen Toyota 4Runner recovered. Just to say thanks.
That is a crazy experience. A person never knows what they will happen to come across deep in the forest.
Beautiful place. It is a shame it got trashed out so badly. Bless you for doing the cleaning you did and I’m very glad you wore gloves & were aware of possible needles. Honestly, I’m not sure I would brave staying there after having seen all the stuff left behind.
Your are my favorite camper, I wish other people would respect nature like you do.
It’s a beautiful place. Thanks for your efforts. ❤️
It saddens me to see the lack of respect for public places. Kenny your dedication is inspiring. I have a network of disabled vets in the twincities who would love come help you clean up. Let me know when and where and we will be there.
This is awesome. It would be cool to put something like that together one day.
Kenny we watch to the very end of your videos. Its a shame how many do not respect beautiful camping areas. Thank you for taking us along. Need your address again. This is Mark and Kim. That steak looked amazing!
Thanks for staying until the end!

I’ve never grilled my shrimp with the shells on. The trees are looking beautiful there!
HELL YEAH BROTHER CLEETUS AND VGG AND MATT FROM DEMO RANCH BEST RUclips OUT THERE AND I STARTED WATCHING YOU A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO KEEP UP THE GOOD CONTENT SEE YOU AROUND AND GOOD ON YOU FOR CLEANING UP AS MUCH AS YOU COULD
Breaks my heart too as a MN native. The area is so beautiful. I left a large piece of my heart there when I moved away. Maybe-a Scout project or an Eagle Scout project? Some of the places looked a little like the old mines around northern Mn. Thanks so much for letting me tag along. Someday, I'll be back. PS: Get yourself a "grabber" for the trash.
Thanks! You are right. They are old mine pits. Hundreds of feet deep and crystal clear, so beautiful.
You're absolutely right about the gates. That's what has happened around here. One of the new big problems around here is exactly what kinds of stuff that the local landfills will accept and the cost to dump stuff off in them. People will find out of the way spots to dump old paint and chemicals, anything to save a buck.
I don't understand the gates. What can people use the land for if you can't camp or bring a vehicle there?
I agree. That open spot that was once used for camping is now limited to people walking through. Such a waste... there was another person who commented that they used this big spot for family get-togethers over the weekends. Now it's gone and most likely will never be re-opened.
Of all your awesome videos, I believe this is your best. I always look forward to Tuesday night.
You ever get scared in the woods ❤️ make no mistake I'm the baddest thing out here 🤣 we love you Kenny!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just started watching and oh my gosh that huge water hole on the road scared me so bad. Thought you were going to tip over 😮!
Thankyou for cleaning up the area. I love nature too and you are awesome Kenny. God bless you 😇 Good man!!!
Thank you for being the person we should all be! Its the same here in NW Montana and its so sad 😞. Ive been thinking about starting a Gambler 500 in my area. Its a really awesome group of people that get together and clean up areas. We have fun, work hard and make great friendships! I believe it started in Oregon with a small group of friends. I went one year and I couldn't believe all the garbage we picked up. You can Google it and find more information about it, if you want to that is. I love camping but I gotta say that fall is my favorite time to do so! Have safe travels my friend and stay awesome.....
Thanks for the info. I'll have to check them out.
Thank goodness there are folks like you that care enough to clean our public lands up. 👍
Hi Kenny, beautiful tree's, I did think you was going to get stuck in that lake, thankfully you was ok.
You are such a gentleman cleaning the site up for the next person.
❤
Amazing video as usual, you never fail / disappoint sir. This one started serious and I can’t help but echo what you have said. I definitely see why Mandi doesn’t like this place. Our country is so beautiful but some of us just don’t care about anything or anyone. While watching this video I kept thinking about those currently in recent war torn places and those that have lost everything. Can you even imagine what these people would give for this piece of land some people just trashed.
You sir are a mighty positive force and I’m definitely praying your heart’s desires get answered and the most good karma a person can get comes straight to you.
Thank you for making my day that much better 😊
That is so kind of you. Thank you so much.
Thank you for being such a great person I wish they were more people like you around maybe we wouldn’t have this problem and it’s not just there is happening all over I just don’t know why people do this it’s just sad this campground is so beautiful. Until your next adventure stay safe stay healthy and god bless 🙏✌🏼
Another great video. Thanks.
If anyone is offended, then they should come out and help clean it up! Thank you for doing what you can to clean up the trash left by others.
Thank you for being a good steward of the land. God bless you.
Kenny your videos are so calming and relaxing. And of course the scenery is beautiful. That was pretty sketchy at night when there were people around. I kept hoping whoever made that mess would not come back while you were there. I assume you had a plan for that.
I can't imagine leaving trash behind say nothing about the junk that was left behind. I pick up everything I just can't imagine throwing stuff on the ground. It's great that you take the time to clean up what you do. Can't wait for the next video.
Kenny that water is deep enough to contact your differential and axle. Not sure if you have a sealed diff/axle or not. If yours is the vented type when the diff and axle contact the water it cools it enough that water can be pulled into your vent and mix with the diff fluid. If a sealed unit it can still pull water in from seals etc. I think fording instructions for most vehicles are no deeper than the water reaching the rims. They make fording kits where the cap or vent is replaced with a fitting and tubing much like that on your airbags, and then you locate the actual vent higher like on the firewall in front and high up in the box for the rear end. I made my own from parts from the auto store. So far have been deep enough that water was seeping in the doors with no problems. Vents working like a charm.
Your exactly right. I did run the vent line above the spare tire. That is a really good point.
Front diff as well?
Wow!!! My goodness that sure was a deep puddle 😲 what a shame the area has been so trashed!!! Sad 😢 as always a great show Kenny 😊 you got me choked up about the book 📖😉 Thankyou for all that you do 🙏
Kenny you have a very good heart. My wife does like camping but she likes hiking so every weekend rain or shine will go hiking. We always pick up our share of someone else trash. These lands are treasures take care of them. Thank you for the video. God bless
Thank you
Absolutely beautiful land and lake. It's so nice you cleaned a lot of it up. That steak and shrimp looked so good, made my mouth water! All the best ❤
Thanks so much
Hi Kenny. Love your calm demeanor about stuff, and your love of nature. Keep it up. :)
Kenny I find myself starting to look forward to your latest video release every Tuesday! :)
It seems hard to imagine that humans can be that despicable but good on you for trying to maintain these areas when you are there.
You are such a good human, this is why people love your channel. 😁
You are so kind
Kenny, just found your channel. Good on you for cleaning up the mess. The sound you heard and wondered about is from an Eastern Screech Owl. Now you know! 😊
Thanks! I've heard that twice now. We mist not have a big population of that owl. I checked out what the Eastern Screech Owl sounds like. That was it for sure.
Every time I see the lake you first start the show with I know where your going.
I didn't know that was sketchy area... never had issues.
If you ever need a clean up crew for that area I'm in just let me know... I love those woods
Is that some of the Cuyuna range pits?
Kenny your a great person for taking care of other peoples laziness and disregard.
WELL SAID AND DONE 👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This video reinforces why I wish my truck was a 4WD. Stan from Wichita Kansas United States of America.
When I find a trashed camp site I always think of the underage party crowd. They never figure out why everything gets closed. I was wondering if the 4 wheelers dug up that mud hole. It must have been even deeper on the way out. Thanks for leaving it better than you found it!
That spot always has water in it and the ground is solid under all the puddles
It's an old iron ore mine site
Delicious looking supper, maybe your best yet. My mouth was watering.
Mr. Kenny sir, I love watching your videos, it is nice to see someone who takes a little pride, in there work, and the love of the outdoors, it’s a shame, that there more people that don’t care, than there is one’s that do !!!!
That's just tragic. 😢
$10 for that "slightly used" cooler. Feel free to drop it off next time you're in Arizona 😂
Lol. I love it!! Thank you so much Josh.
You are a good man Kenny. I was always taught take out what you bring in. I live in WI and is beautiful but MN is darn beautiful too! We have to take care of our outdoors/camping areas.
Thanks for sharing your experiences with us! Take care out there!
❤ from your WI neighbor. Karrie
Thank you! Wisconsin is very beautiful. I had a few videos over there. I need to travel those back roads more often. I appreciate you watching.
Thank you sir, you are why we have hope. It was trashed but it is a gorgeous area.
Your gentle voice is so comforting!
I appreciate that
Awesome video. It’s just too bad how the homeless and drug addicts have ruined such beautiful places.
A few bad apples ruin it for everyone. Too bad😢
Another awesome video Kenny!! Loved that you added the fire pit for future campers!! 🤙
Thanks 👍
Love your fall videos, your area is gorgeous. Good on you for picking that place up, you're a good dude! Would suck if that beaver fell a tree on your truck! 😂😂
Share where your at and maybe it’s close enough to come and help ya clean it up
