Welcome to Dan's Backcountry, where adventure and reflection come alive in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. Join me, Daniel Fisk Bennett (aka. Backcountry Dan), as I explore rugged wilderness, from snow-covered peaks to misty rivers. Whether I’m fly fishing, hunting, or cooking over an open fire, each journey is about connecting with nature and embracing the challenges of the wild.
This channel celebrates solitude, adventure, and the timeless bond between humans and the natural world. Through stories of resilience and stewardship, I hope to inspire others to appreciate and protect these unspoiled places.
If you seek inspiration to explore, a sense of nostalgia, or a glimpse into life off the beaten path, you’ve come to the right place.

In The Shadow Of Giants
Deep in the heart of the Olympic Mountains, winter transforms the landscape into a realm of raw beauty and quiet strength. Towering peaks rise like ancient sentinels, their snow-covered spires shrouded in mist, while silent forests and frozen lakes tell stories of time and resilience. Join me and my loyal companion, Artemis, as we journey into this breathtaking wilderness-pushing through cold nights, quiet reflections, and moments of wonder.
This is more than an adventure; it’s an exploration of what draws us to the wild and what it means to walk in the shadow of giants. From serene campfires to the untamed power of nature, discover how these landscapes both humble and inspire, leaving us with questions only the mountains can ask.
Whether you’re here for the scenery, the solitude, or the story, this journey will remind you of the beauty found in both the struggle and the stillness.

Great vid, and that smoke salmon looked tasty!
It was!
Such incredible footage, I love snow !
Amazing
The scale is so immense it’s hard to comprehend. Stunning footage !

Great words.
I appreciate it!
God created beautifully.
Yep, did it years ago and it is indeed a tad scary, but you just hug the uphill side and it actually is fine (or WAS fine). Maybe it has changed over the years?
I did this video 3 years ago and most people just don't look over the side.
So Kool
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Cooking the Perch made hungry 😊
It was probably one of the best fish sandwiches I ever had
What a peaceful way to start my work day. Well done as usual!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
You’re supposed to let the babies go
Can't wait to learn fly fishing
