- This week's video I'm taking you to the Chippawa National Forest. I was searching on Google Maps when I found a small lake near a hiking trail. From the satellite images it looked like either a canoe drop-off point or possible campsite. There were no marked off road trails through the woods, but I could tell some kind of path was going through the trees. I'm thankful I brought along the Sawzall. I had to remove a number of low hanging obstructions. I didn't record my drive into the woods because I really didn't think I would find a spot. I assumed I would be driving for a few more hours and have plenty of opportunities to get good shots.
I don't know what it was about this spot, but it was one of my favorites. This place had an amazing light feeling. It was super welcoming. I felt at home while I was there. I will be back with a kayak this spring to find the rainbow trout. I'm already looking forward to smoking a few above the campfire. I know some people asked If I would do a spooky style video for Halloween, but I don't have time to plan anything. I take pride in the fact that my videos are exactly what anyone would experience while going camping in Northern Minnesota over the weekend. I'm super lucky to have you following along on this little adventures.
I almost forgot......I looked at making an affiliate account through Amazon. I already ran into a roadblock. I'll have my girls help me out with it. I'm not from the computer generation. I graduated in the mid 90's before computers took off. I never had an email until collage and never had a need for a home computer. Anyone who knows me thinks it's amazing that I even figured out how to upload a video. Once I do have affiliate links, I'll be posting them.
Campfire, snow flakes, howling, mac n cheese, frozen worms, expiration dates, blood and missing keys. I think you got it all in this week's video. Great job!
Dogman out and about and doing a little howling.
Love that you keep it real!! 🐺
Had to watch again, never gets old.
Me tool
A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work
The legend lives on from the Chippawa on down on the big lake they call ???
Making our Tuesdays better every week, even taking a hit for the team! Keep it up Kenny!
Glad i found you tonight. Live in Iowa and wanted to camp in your great state. Thanks for the ideas. I love your signoff line!
Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Like your forefinger, point it at the smoke and whadah, the smoke will head off to the direction you pointed at.
We just got home from five days of camping on the California Big Sur coast. Sunny, mid 70's during the day. mid 50's at night.
Sounds awesome!
@@KennyOfAllTrades A roll of the dice. This fall we came up lucky.
yip yip. gotta love mamma earth
Kenny I think you and Donald from @softroadingthewest should meet up somewhere halfway and camp together. He is based out of southern Oregon and he does your kind of remote camping and exploring. I love it when two RUclipsr's get together and then you get to watch both of their videos from the same trip and see the different perspectives. It also gives each of your viewers to potentially find a new channel they can start enjoying.
I'll have to check out his channel. It's funny you mention that. In tonight's video, I talk about that exact same topic. Its a coincidence that you brought that up.
Another wonderful and entertaining video, Kenny. An affiliate account at Amazon would probably work out good for you, maybe you wouldn't have to keep answering questions about the various tools and gadgets you use. Totally get not being techno savvy, neither are we, but we muddle through. Running late because we went to pick up our camper, which we lovingly refer to as The Condo, after having some improvements made. Now we need to clean it and get all our gear stowed into it; we're having some external storage boxes put on next week so we, too, can take a sawzall type for overhanging limbs, etc. We're so ready to get out there and enjoy it, then we'll stop living vicariously through your videos, but we'll still watch them, of course, because we enjoy them so much! Just loved the wolves calling out, I can't think of any other better sound to sleep by, well, except maybe for crashing waves, LOL. That's where we're heading to for our shakedown run, the beach, in fact, several of them. Have a great week, Kenny, catch ya next week!
I'm so excited for you! I hope you love it!!
That mac-'n-cheese is real comfort food!
My, oh my. Now my Tuesday is perfect with a video from the man, the myth, the legend. Thank u sir for all d joy and happiness u keep managing to spread and share with the world 😊
So nice of you
“Chicks dig scars” Haha! 👍✌️
love the camper
“Expiration date is just a suggestion” says Kenny 8 days after HAHAHA Love it!😂
I was in the sameish area this weekend with our fifth wheel and the wolves were out in full force!
Beautiful
I like going for walks after dark. Twice in the last week I've walked within 15-20 feet of a nice buck before my night vision finally saw him and then I changed my direction.
Concussion. 🤣🤣 then forgets keys in camper. Comedic Gold ! Dem dare looked like some JohnsonVille brats eh ? I have body by JohnsonVille. Now I know what I want for supper tomorrow.
Lol. I love it!
Great video Kenny! Love how you keep it real and relatable from frozen worms to to a bloody face.Wolves howling wil be a great memory. Stay safe!
Thanks 👍
One blessing of Fall in the North is that the skeeters, biting flies, chiggers, gnats, no-see-ums, ticks, and flies are all snowbirds and hiding. So one can have a peaceful campout without being bitten or harassed.
Daylight savings time is no friend of mine, either.
Those spots you find are amazing! The wolves just add to it. I’m into the walks any time of the day. Thanks Kenny!
Glad you like them!
Ha! I could feel myself plugging up just watching you mix that cheese😂
Lol....I was wondering why I didn't have my regular morning routine the last two days.
beautiful autumn night. i used to howl in the forest when i lived in norway,
Thanks!
This is awesome!! I really appreciate the support. Thank you very much!
Great video, Mahalo for sharing.
🎉Kenny awesome campsite enjoy the video thanks for sharing 🎉
Another awesome video. Not laughing at you, but laughing with you. Chicks dig scars! Hahahahaha
Take care. Have a great week.
Thanks! Love everything about you and the channel.
This is awesome! Thank you so much for showing support to the channel. I really appreciate the help.
Very nice video. Just made me want to quit my job and camp out full time.
Wouldn't that be nice! I hope the channel shows we can still have a soul sucking job Monday through Friday and take the weekend for ourselves.
Noticed hat. My dad retired from IH in rock Island illinois years ago before they closed. Great video
Another great video. Glock Perfection cap. Nice touch👍😉
I bet it felt great to find a clean campsite after last week's experience. As always, great job with the editing. I know you put a lot of effort into it. 👍
Thanks!
Hey Kenny! Not sure if the whole truck camper industry is aware yet, but there couldn't be a better spokesperson/advocate for the life and experience than YOU! I actually think you'd be a great spokesperson for just about anything, but the love you have for the experiences brought to you by TRUCK CAMPER is absolutely infectious and contagious! Your combination of knowledge, experience, dedication and just pure love of the whole experience is without compare, in my humble opinion.
As always, we loved this week's video- from the site you found to the cooking to the fishing to the night hike- ALL of it!
Many thanks for taking us along!
Jim
This is such an awesome compliment. Thank you so much!
I was always told smoke follows beauty! Beautiful area! Awesome video!
Nice video, looks like a great spot!
Brilliant video
One of my Favorite videos, man what a Beautiful campsite. The Night walks are some of my favorite, especially in Fall and Winter . Wonderful work🔥
I thought this was a really good video too. I think this was a beautiful spot.
Your camper sure is set up well to check for tempature!👍 That mac n cheese looks yummy! 😁
A little hack to stop bleeding...Cut a brown paper bag in squares, when you cut yourself wet down the paper and put it on the cut and hold it there. It works!
Great video!
Be well! 😊
Thanks for the tips!
Hey Kenny.. another beautiful spot ! That Mac n cheese looked delicious 😋😋
Thank you 😋
No way, I thought that rib eye steak you made in the video i just watched of you was awesome, But holy molly, this looks delicious ! What a cook ! God Bless brother.
Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong
Thanks!
Just watched this from cascade river state park site 16! Made a chuck roast in my van the other day at temperance river! See you down the road
That is awesome! I think one of my most beautiful videos was winter camping at Cascade River Stste Park. The falls are beautiful! Are there many people there on a week day?
@@KennyOfAllTrades only ones here! It’s a ghost town
Man, I was born and raised in Bloomer, WI. I love Chippewa Falls. 🙌🏻
Good evening from Godley Texas, never a dull moment in nature. Love the sound of coyotes, owls, and rustling of leaves. Yep, fishing from shore definitely has some draw backs, but you're still in the great outdoors. I'm a year around camper, it just requires some additional planning based on the weather. See you next Tuesday. Stay safe and happy travels 😎
Thanks, you too!
So cool every time u go to the woods. It's so nice out there 🌲🌲🤠
Yep cold weather fish go deep, lose the float.
Wolves! Beautiful. Such a beauty spot.
Nice video. Winter is just around the corner. Thanks for sharing this nice spot and this good video.
Great video! Thank you for taking us along, that view from the camper door was spectacular! I hope you didn’t need stitches on your eyebrow ❤
It was just as if I was there. Had a great time. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool....
Thanks!
Love the pep talk for the worm! 😂 I just don’t think there was any fish in there….lol Mac and cheese looked amazing! I will need to try that recipe. 85 degrees in FL today. Just a little warmer than MN! Really can’t tell a difference…ha ha! stay warm! Thanks for getting out there and making these videos! See you next Tuesday!
Just a bit cooler here. Thanks for watching!
A full moon at night in the forest, can mean only one thing ! The howling of werewolves'. Silver bullets !😲🐺👍
We LOVE Skellig! mac and cheese! Oh Kenny! You are killing us!
Thanks!
The view is gorgeous. I absolutely love the night walks and the day walks. Thank you so very much!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the great videos, we really enjoy them
We are currently in Daylight Saving Time, but I agree with you Kenny, I would rather stay in DST than return to Standard Time. I would prefer to have some light at the end of the work day rather than leaving home in the dark and returning home at the end of the day in the dark. I sooner the extra dark in the morning because at least I know the light is coming. LOL. Cheers from Atlantic Canada.
I agree with that. I would prefer to have it dark in the morning.
Another good one, Kenny. Keep 'em coming!
Nice 🐺 howling!
I debated if I was going to show that. It was an embarrassing attempt. But, I figured why not.....I don't mind making myself look a little silly.
So beautiful
Another amazing episode-snow flurries, Mac and cheese and a little Vice Grip Garage! That’s a great weekend- 😊 your sense of humor keeps us rolling- chicks dig scars 😂 will watch reruns until next Tuesday. 🎃
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for checking out the old episodes. I really appreciate it.
Hahaha you didn't think you could howl BUT they answered ya! Your dinner looked amazing great job. Great video Ken
My husband and I watch all your videos! Awesome content!!!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
That looks awesome but I think if I ate that I'd immediately go into cardiac arrest lol
All Kenny's food looks so good (a.k.a. what I used to eat in the old days.)
I feel so much better being on keto/ carnivore I'll never go back but it's good to see others enjoy it, at least as long as they can.❤️
Texas here.
You made me jealous that my camper don't have a oven. That was great looking mac an cheese. Good job Kenny.
Love the late night walks. And if Adele was there to hear your howl she would be so embarrassed. 🤣
As always great video never get bored or tired of them. Keep up those videos coming! Be safe
Glad you like them!
Ok, I mailed it the day after your previous video, so last Wed. It should be there soon. 😊
I was blowing on your hot mac n' cheese with you. 🤣 It looked delicious, and I can imagine it smelled and tasted great, too! So sorry about your boo-boo. Ouch, that looked like it hurt.
I take my e-bike for a ride almost every night.just a couple miles,but to me it gives me down time and serenity.i watch your videos all the time.. very enjoyable.michael from Charleston S.C
I agree. Sometimes, I get on the back and zone out.
Love your vids, thank you.
Glad you like them!
Another great video, and the night walks are good. We enjoy the night sounds. Thank you for sharing and God bless you!
Glad you enjoyed
Another amazing video!!! Thank you for taking us along. I can almost smell your campfire smoke here. :~)
Glad you enjoyed it
Wee onions! Bleh
Everything else about this video was amazing as always! Thanks so much for continuing to take us along on all your great adventures! And for sharing all your tips!
Amazing spot you found and yes the view from the back door was beautiful. I do like the night walks and hate the turning of the clocks ⏰ too. I use to own a property with an acre pond loaded with fish, that was a good time when my son, Chris, was young. Thanks for your calming videos, it’s great for my anxiety 🤗 I sometimes wonder why I live in Pennsylvania too. It can get brutally cold here too.
We are in PA also, We really need to go camping!
@@janetalberico 🤗
Kenny , you got it backwards. We're ON daylight savings time. When we jump back during the winter months, we're no longer ON DST but back on standard time. Oh, and I whole heartily agree we should just stay on DST.
@@drivenbullet260 If you work outside you set your hours to the sun however you want.
You are my favorite, I check first for your new videos, then look at others, but only like ones that talk. you talk best. And love how u satisfy my camping urges. Since im stuck inside a resturant most hours a week. thankyou.
Thank you. That's very kind of you to say. I really appreciate you watching.
Awesome video Kenny! Sorry for running late............heck of a week! Wow!!! that has to be one of my favorite camp sites that you have shown. That lake is beautiful, has to be loaded with fish. The howling was awesome..........love wolves as long as they're not getting calves. I have seen (and heard) wolves this far South, one ran right out in front of me. As much as I love them, if I was going to be in area with them I would have a sidearm. The Mac & Cheese looked great! One of my favorites. Something I do to add protein is finely chop a couple of hard-boiled eggs in the Mac & Cheese. Sounds weird but tastes great!
As always, thanks for bringing us along!
The eggs are a great tip! Thank you so much for the support. Hopefully things turn around for you soon.
Thanks Kenny, my Golden Missy woke up this morning and went running through the house looking for him..........then she gave three big wimpers. She's getting a lot of extra attention right now. Like any family member, passing time is the best medicine. Goldens usually live 8-10 years. My Cousin who was a Vet called them "cancer factories" Cooper gave us 14 years of love and companionship..............it doesn't get better than that. Went Rainbow fishing today............another great cure for what ails a person.@@KennyOfAllTrades
@richardkoch8752 So sorry Rick. I agree that time is the only thing that will help. Take care.
Kenny, just want to thank you for sharing some of your ways to monitor temps in different parts of your camper and truck. I sure wish I had that information back in the 1980's when I had a Tech slide in camper and was camping in Pittsburg New Hampshire as it got down right frigid there in Feb, when we went camping and snowmobiling.
Awesome videos, Thank you so much!
Youre a braver person than me, If I heard those howls I'd be short shifting back to the camper and locking the door 😂
Beautiful campsite. Hope your wound healed ok. I was like ouch out loud. Hubby asked what was wrong...I said Kenny bopped himself in the head and he is bleeding. He said those are bleeders!! Sorry you got hurt but this was a great video. Look forward to Tuesdays! I can't believe how cold it is there. Right now..here on Long Island NY: 50 degrees at 9:43pm. Tomorrow the high will be 55. I can't wait to move south. I miss the warm weather year round.
Kenny, I really look forward to Tuesday’s because of your videos. Thanks for sharing your trips with us. God bless.
Glad you like them!
Chef Kenny, make-n the Mac.
I love the wolves howling. I hear them all the time at my cabin.
Good vid.
Kenny you are the Bob Ross of camping.
I'll take that compliment!
You should also think about Amazon wish list, memberships, and Patron. Start thinking about this channel as a business. You have talent as a artistic videographer and that's worth starting a business. I would be the first to sigh up as a member.
That's a great idea. I know I have to start thinking of it as a business. I will have 20 grand into making videos this year. Then Uncle Sam will want a cut of the earnings....which is much less than the amount I spent. I think I could have a profitable channel. It would be nice if I didn't have to work 45 hours a week to support my weekend adventures.
@@KennyOfAllTrades I predict it won't be long before you're doing it full time making a profit. At least recoup the money you got it...
Another good one Kenny.
Noise is Bigfoot probably. 😅
That looked delicious also.
We're looking to head to Texas or Arizona right around rifle season.
Kenny, I am getting a camper because of you. Now, I would love to come up and help you catch some perch and Walleye. Your videos are always my favorite to watch. You help me set up my camper and I can promise you fish tacos. LOL
That's awesome! If you have any questions, dont hesitate to send an email.
I have twice heard wolves from a campsite. I have twice heard wolves *not* from a campsite. It never gets old.
We had Halloween snow today for trick or treat! No camping for me! Lol I will just live vicariously through you.
Great time of year to be camping 👍 Mac and cheese looked delicious. Agree with you on expiration dates 🤣 I'm sure you had some choice words that didn't make it through editing when you got cut!! 🤣 Excellent video as always Kenny
Omg! That Mac-n-Cheese is calling my name. 😍 Another great video from Kenny of All Trades. Cheers!🍻
I like all your videos and you seem to find the most suitable music to go with it.
Also prefer it when there are no other people!
Kenny - I am SUPER jealous of your 4 season rig. We just got back from our trip across the country last month, and sadly had to skip MN due to temps :-( We are in a Winnebago Travato & hadn't winterized. I need to do some serious soul-searching and decide if I am ready to make the change to a pickup truck setup, - we saw several on our trip...you make it very, very tempting
YES! I love all the night walks, no matter the lighting - it's dark at night in nature, so no worries! Thanks for another great video!
Thanks! I appreciate the comment.
as far as the late night walks. Hey, as long as you’re the one doing them, i’ll be as brave you’ll ever be lol.😂
I grew up hearing "Smoke follows beauty." You are a handsome man like myself.
Love it! 😊
We love your videos. Keep them coming. Stay safe.
Good one Kenny getting cold, it's 60 this morning cold for us Burr, No Fish bummer see ya next week stay safe
love your videos. I love being outdoors with my van and my sweet girl, Shadow! Love your cooking as well...mac & cheese? Has to be my fave! God Bless and watch over you! keep on camping! from the PNW!
Thank you for checking out the videos. One day, I'd love to visit the PNW. I have watched so many videos from over there. The forests look magical and full of beauty.
@@KennyOfAllTrades thru seriously are. I have a favorite place in the Okanagan/Wenatchee National Forest. If you ever get out here. I will send you the coordinates. Happy and safe camping!
Thanks for taking us along! Great video hope your head is not too sore!
It still does! Lol. The ground plug went straight through my eyebrow.
