      Time for a competitive family outing. Should do a point system challenge w/ him. Each fish equals a certain amount, quickest to get a fire going, first to get up in the morning. I think that'd be an amazing video for both of you :D A proper outdoors challenge/co-op

    There's no way the algorithm doesn't pick one of your videos to blow up soon ... this is unreal stuff. More people need to see this. Your video style is so peaceful and captures exactly the feeling I get when I'm in places like this.

      Thank you, Tate. That is one of my main concerns - to get the filming and editing right so that you can feel a bit of what it's like to be there. Too in the past my photos and videos don't bring out the colours, depth and atmosphere.Thanks for saying that! Cheers

    I really like the tone of your videos. I follow several of you guys. Each one offers something different creatively. I can always count on yours bringing a bit of contemplation, self reflection, beauty of nature, and calmness. I'd read one of your books if you ever decide to write one. Favorite quote of your video "I really appreciate this last gasp of summer". Keep them coming.

    Nice work Maxim. In my experience happiness is a symptom of something I'm doing rather than a goal per se. If it becomes a goal it seems to be elusive and seems out of reach when chased like that New Years Eve desire to "have a great time" versus the spontaneous social gathering of friends

    In selecting your campsite you tell how you were getting a "vibe." Connecting to something you can't specifically identify apparently, no flat spot to pitch your shelter for example, but you make the decision to work with it. In the moment guided by something in the ether rather than anything material. But not just a random choice. Action determined by some intangible compass. What you captured on video made me feel this. The vibe I got from your experience. I'm sure everyone who watches your channel picks up something different, a different vibe. You can read it in people's comments. Unlike other creators styles of a travelog or a record of trip or a backcountry skills infomercial you take a different approach. It's fresh and very interesting. Apology for the lengthy comment. Its just the observation of a guy who lives in the desert US. Great job!

    Beautiful Maxim. What many experience as "Indian Summer" is simply the wonder and splendor of our most magical of seasons... AUTUMN. No other season has as much variety and unpredictability. A season so magnificent it warranted two names (although, in my opinion the rather simplistic and irreverent term "fall" doesn't do it justice). Happiness is not a state of mind which implies ego; it is more about losing our minds (so to speak) and just being present. That 🌅 was awesome!
