Surviving Spring in the Rockies Catch & Cook

  • Caught between seasons, Greg and Finn battle the snowy backroads and half-frozen waters of the Rocky Mountains, facing multiple setbacks, looking for a fishing spot where they can set up camp and catch dinner.
    Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

    I like how Greg just throws the whole mini-tree on the fire without cutting it. You don’t need to waste time dicing everything up.

    Ice...No problem...Have aluminum cutter ice breaker craft. 🙂
    And now I can fish..... LOVE THIS VIDEO.!!! Did the same thing in northern Minnesota on a small 1,000 acres lake.
    We were trolling in a fiberglass flat bottom boat for crappies. Pushed out from dock, went straight north and cut the ice lake in half.
    Next day, mild 20 mph wind gusts blew all the ice off (called ice out) into hand-sized ice cubes on the south side of the lake.
    Taking out my dock...can you say instant karma?!! The fish Gods won.! 2 months, I couldn't get out to retrieve the bass boat until I replaced the dock in hip weighters, in freezing water with clay base. My boots stuck...up to my chin in cattails, sneezing, and laughing.
    I had brought a friend up from the cities who fished and had never seen ice out before. He was blown away.
    Thanks for memories, Greg... Be safe in the cold waters. Life vests always recommended. Dave+Ly

    I hope it warms up for you soon. For me, too. It snowed yesterday and a cold 40 degree (4.4 celsius) rain today. Anxious for 60's and 70's. Hotter than that, however, us northern Michiganders tend to melt. Love on that beautiful dog for me, and thank you for showing everyone valuable and sensible life lessons. Would love to see you come to the Porcupine Mountains in Upper Michigan. September (color season and no bugs) is the best time.

I started watching during your earliest videos, but I recently showed your content to my mother, and she absolutely adores it and loves who you are, and also wanted me to let you know how much we appreciate you. Given my current circumstances, this seemed the best way I could do so. Love you, man, keep doing you, whatever that may be! ❤👍

    Hey Greg, Im addicted to your videos. They are easy to watch and make sense. Bravo! I would like to see a video based on being in the bush with Grizzly Bears. I know you have several videos about raised platfoms and you talk about your defender sometimes, But you walk around with no pistol and never carry your defender. I realize your knowledge and common sense protects you best. I personally would very much enjoy seeing a video explaing bear safety, and expaining your weapons and methods. Keep the videos coming!

    Good video. One of the things I like about your videos is that you use what you have and it works fine. Many of the utubers only use the very expensive equipment. Many of us can’t afford that stuff. Can’t wait to see the new island videos. Stay safe.

  • @jessanddavidboham8014

    That was an amazing video Greg. And I love all the footage and I'm so glad that you waited to 3 days and waiting for the ice to melt and went out there and did this video for us that is so phenomenal of you I love everything you do and so glad that Finn looks so healthy and he's such a fun added thing to your videos he is such a character. Anyways much love and can't wait to see more from you and especially the island trip that is going to be awesome on the little island. And can't wait to see more from you and someday maybe go out with you and survive and camp and catch and cook.

    Watching you and Fin... My GSD is the same way. He probably didn't want to snag the steak out of the tree because he wasn't sure if you were trying to make him earn it or not. I also do the same thing where I'm like "no this is mine," and then end up sharing with him while i try to treat it like a unique occurrence.
