    I've seen Foresty Forest do a brake job, cook 10 times better than I do, and now he pulls out a grinder to clean up a grill all in the middle of nowhere and I know I have missed some other wtf moments from his other videos. So now i'm wondering what will be Foresty Forest's next wtf moment? Taxidermy? Quilting? Small engine repair? Glad to see the shirt man, thats quite a piece of long lasting clothing.

      It's easy to tell the difference between people who just live the vanlife style because they love it and those that do it for money and or fame. Like many people who do this vanthing are freaking rich, they have vans that cost more than an apartment or house. Yeah we will just go spend 500.000$ on a van lol.
      I think this is why people like this channel, he isnt rich, he aint doing it for fame or attention, he just has a down to earth lifestyle and passion which he wants to share. You cannot fake this kind of passion.
      The only bad thing about Mr Forest, is that his videos are too short xD I want more dammit!

    Your reference to a new purchase is keeping me waiting. You also mention e-bike so I hope you can show us what you meant by that. My E-bike weighs about 90 lbs and I have the LI battery which is only about 13lbs. On city streets if will go easily 25 miles but it's probably useless in your terrain. A little 125CC dirt bike is still gonna weigh maybe 160lbs and pretty hard to attach to your van. I also wanted to mention that if you could borrow a metal detector and maybe find some interesting gold nuggets, that would be fun. I'm also waiting for fishing season to see what you catch. Nice work!

    I love that the only footprints you leave where you visit are from your shoes. Fewer ding-dongs, more sing-song, I say. Spectacular al fresco dining backdrops. Thanks for sharing.

    I like the sausage burnt. Looked really tasty. We grilled out on mother's day. Everyone wanted burnt hot dogs.
    Glad u got a refrigerator. Hope it works out for u.
    U can put a motor on ur bike. There are some RUclips videos that show that. It's about $200

    Porcupine Story; in the Tonquin Valley we found this great little camp spot surrounded closely on all sides by small Jack Pine. In the middle of the night I awoke to these little grunting squeaks. I called to my friends and we turned on our Flashlights to find we had camped in a Porcupine home! Luckily we woke up before to much damage was done. A few holes here and there, a tiny hole in my boot tounge, fishing pole handle half gone, friends packstrap eaten through and we had to jury-rig a strap. This was 1970's pre-light, pre ultra-light, pre light-light, ultra-ultra-ultra etc. etc. so nothing was expensive to replace. Moral is; always wait for a nice invitation before moving lock, stock and barrel into someone's little home.

    If you haven't started doing it already, you should consider selling excess footage to stock footage companies. Your work with the drone is fantastic, you have an eye for shot composition and are in an area right now where most would love to shoot but cannot. MIght be a nice sideline.

    Foresty is somewhat of an enigma.....but damn entertaining! I started watching for the Fat Bike touring episodes. Wow! who else has the balls to ride across Death Valley on a fat bike?
    I'm really looking forward to the next Fat Bike tour. I hope sometime soon. These 'van life' videos are alright, but not as good as the bicycle episodes. Still, I love to catch up on the latest 'Foresty news'. Thanks for sharing.
