    I went into grizzly country for this weeks camping, it's a surprisingly short drive to get into bear country from my new place so I took full advantage of that! Just the beginning of this years bear country camping, and I'm hoping to get lots of them on film.
    Cheers everyone, and happy fathers day!

      I'm colourblind too so I get that. Anything with red or green in it is a problem so purple and blue look the same. If I had a quid for every time I've potted a really good red at snooker only to be told it was the brown. Hey ho.

    Steve, I love your channel. I grew up camping as a kid. My dad had 4 brothers and 3 sisters and my Mom had a brother, and the family got together when I was around 8 or 10 and bought some property on Cherokee Lake in East Tennessee, and built a campground for the family complete with restrooms and showers (lake water only but hey). We literally lived there in two tents one year all summer long. My Dad and his brothers and my other uncles would get up in the morning and go to work, and the wives would stay and take care of the kids and the campground. We'd go home once a week to check the mail and make sure the house hadn't burned down. I have so many fond memories of sitting and playing cards or scrabble in a tent with the rain coming down, riding my bike through the woods, and of course all of the swimming. We had access to the campground for a number of years before it was eventually sold, and some of my best memories were made there.
    I also suffer from insomnia. I guess because the landscape is usually so quiet and you have a soothing voice, I can put on a camping video and be asleep before the end when I go to bed. That's a compliment, by the way. You're not boring, you're comforting. Give my best to Lovely Wife and Crazy Neighbor, and thank them for letting you be you. Hugs.

      I must admit, there is something quite serene about watching his videos, but I personally would be scared shitless if I knew I was out in the open in grizzly bear territory. Just being in that position is scary enough, and then he makes things more risky by doing some outdoor cooking and creating food odors that drift for miles around. Sorry, but creating a magnet for bears while being in an area with zero cell phone service is not a risk I would take. To each their own, but I don't want to increase my odds of winding up torn to shreds and in the stomach of a hungry grizzly.

Your demeanor and attitude has inspired a sense of adventure inside me that I've never tapped into before.

    Who would ever dislike Steve's videos??? Hes the man. So relaxing. But keep doing you man, I've been around since at right about 80k subs. I never miss a video and never will. And to the people that dislike Steve's videos, go get some help. And you absolutely deserve all the success you get Steve!!!
