- Hi Campers,
I go kayak/ backpacking up to the Gold Lakes Basin in the northern Sierra Nevada mountains wilderness of California. I take my Tamarack 100 Sit-On-Top Kayak into the beautiful alpine Goose Lake and set up an overnight camp on a long peninsula. I make homemade baked potato soup, have a campfire and do some landscape photography while enjoying the beautiful High Sierra mountains.

Chris, you are one of my top favorite Hikers, I love your laugh and goofiness along with your photography and talents! More scary stories and history please!!
Thank you Liberty!
Chris, in a world of crazy, you are a beacon of light in the darkness. Thanks for these great videos. I love watching you.
Chris cooks better in high country outback than I do in a fully loaded suburban kitchen. Still my new favorite channel to binge watch. Keep the equipment reviews and spooky stories coming !!
😂
Chris needs an amazon influencer page, so we can support your channel! Please keep uploading your wonderful videos!
Thank so much! Good idea....
You have such overflowing joy in you that it transfers into others. I love your attitude. God bless, man!
I appreciate that! Thank you!
I just love everything about your videos, you have a kind soul, I enjoy witnessing. Also, the magical moments & beauty of nature. Learning about camping & outdoor tips... It really gets me excited to go out and try it myself :) And not to mention you are quite creative and skilled with the camera!
Last but def not least... the bigfoot stories. I am a believer in bigfoot, and absolutely love getting spooked by the fire, and letting my imagination run wild! Looking forward to many more videos, Thanks for being you! Keep Hiking!
Great stuff, Chris! One thing I appreciate about your channel is that you focus on the important things: getting out in nature and having a good time. It’s easy to get discouraged watching other TH-camrs because they focus on having the best, most expensive, ultralight gear. Not you. You have nice gear, but you find what works for you, which is normally quality and budget-friendly. I look forward to each video. Keep up the good work, my friend.
I appreciate that!Thank you...will do!
Loved it Chris! If I'd seen those footprints that's the last place i would stay at night. You are a brave soul!
I'm 68, live in Reno and getting ready to kayak camp. Love the idea of it.
Nature is everything! Its peace. Its just life. Camping is the most beautyfull thing you can teach youre childeren and do yourself. JUST beautyfull.
What a beer drinking hiker??
You had me fooled..
You've got so much talent, thanks for sharing w/ us. ......
*Your smile and laughter is contagious* .
Y'know there is just SOMETHING so relaxing watching Chris cook in the middle of the woods lol... like i could watch just THAT for hours.
I watch a few camping/hiking videos but I have too say chris, yours is my favourite. I look forward to your next adventure
Wow, thanks Tarris!!
Whole you're at it, check out Steve Wallis. He's the reason I discovered this channel.
@@basecampchris I love how that little peninsula was such a perfect and magical spot .
So I guess the small footprint in your story was probably a toddler Sasquatch ... ?
Do you think you have ever come across any dog man or werewolves ?
@@basecampchris the photographs are great but one of the things I hate about cell phone photographs is it just seems they flatten out whatever you're looking at and make it less dramatic unless dimensional ...
Hard to explain other than to simply say that it will make some of the most dramatic landscapes seam less so .
You're a wonderful! You're doing everything that I would like to do, thank you very much 👍👍 Love that soup💕
Awesome spot you found There Chris!, I appreciate the effort on filming, carring the camera gear, putting the video together. As always a great job, thanks again for sharing and Let us scape to those cool Places through your videos. Saludos from México, keep hiking!
Wow -Thank You Ismael! Appreciate the support! keep hiking!
Simply awesome Chris! What a great adventure. I always enjoy your channel. The soup looks delicious.
Really enjoy every video. Just fantastic to watch and feel a part of the journey.
Thank you J S!
Chris I got such a kick out of goose lake really enjoy watching your stuff your stories keep them coming home is Ohio loves you
How you can sit there all alone in the dark creepy woods, by a fire casting frightening shadows all about, and tell of unearthly howls and weird footprints and unknown creatures huffing & stomping outside your tent, is beyond me! I'd scare myself to death! I'm sure I'd end up throwing my sleeping bag into the boat and paddling out to the middle of the lake to sleep, and just hope I could keep visions of underwater cryptids from tormenting me all night. Glad you're up to it though, because I enjoy these videos so much.
Love your channel! Binge watching some your older stuff now 😊
Yay! Thank you!
i love your videos! I find them peaceful, ralaxing, cozy and informative!!! great stuff! thanks Chris!
That was a fantastic video, Chris. I really enjoyed it. Lots of variety - fire-making skills, equipment recommendations, photography, wildlife, and the talk of Bigfoot. Thank you so much for another entertaining video. Keep hiking!
Awesome, thank you!
It’s like the storms stalk you. Lol! “Chris is camping. Let’s drench him!” Lol
The clouds even follow me down to the mail box and back...LOL
Beautiful rainbow..❤
That soup looked incredibly delicious!
Best trip ever!! Love the scenery, the soup, the geese, the echo, the gear …. All of it. I will be buying some merch too!
What's up Chris, just a helpful hint , take your lint from your dryer, save in in a bag then take it with you, it's great for fire starter, burns very hot and fast, one more, a candle wick in a block of lard makes a great long lasting candle 👍 stay safe Chris....
You have the best life EVER!
Is so beautiful out there Chris but be careful remember to always carry a personal locator and gun ur the best story teller 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Love the Content Chris, So relaxing and educational! Keep up the good work and be safe! Much much love!
I Loved camping here in Alaska. Love Watching your Videos especially the Campfire.Your encounters are good also.I have seen Bigfoot, so dont camp in tents anymore since my husband passed. Thanks again Chris.
This is my favorite series with this focus. Very nice narration, great work, thanks.
Wow, thanks!🐻
This video is awesome.
Reminds me of the lakes I’ve fished.
Tried your recipe for potato soup.
It was very good.
The hash browns are a excellent choice to sub the potatoes. It was a game changer.
Thanks for telling me!
KEEP HIKING
Now that looked like an epic camp site... amazing views. Looking forward to some hats and shirts... keep up the great videos. Respect from Oregon
Thank you👍 More trips planned! "Keep Hiking!"
After hearing the sound of two foxes mating I dont pay attention to forest sounds anymore.. Craziest sound you ever heard!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hearing thunder and not sure what to expect? Some good sleep with a full belly of potato soup. Now that's the life.
Thanks Jacob...want to go back soon....great country up there!
Beautiful place to camp! Great weather, perfect spot, a rainbow, yummy soup...awesome trip!
Thanks so much
definitely like to get a t shirt and a hat. really like your videos.
Awesome, thank you!
I do a lot of camping like that out of my kayak in northern Maine and northern New York
Fantastic video.
Nice spot you found with beautiful views.
This is I think the best video you did. The spot is enchanting, the pictures you took were GORGEOUS, the soup you made looked delicious. Everything about the video is fantastic ❤
Enjoyed the video ! But I do like when you introduce the beer of the trip in the newer videos.
I do too...1 beer in the creek. Thanks!
Beautiful photography!
Been just too hot here in Florida for camping, so im camping vicariously through your videos. I love the cooking.. Great channel and you deserve more subscribers 👍
Thank you Bob! I appreciate the support!!
I really enjoyed your video :) thanks for all the time and effort you put in there
Glad you enjoyed it Sonja! "Keep Hiking!"
Another spectacular video.
I also really appreciate the insight into your photography skills......GORGEOUS!!!
Wonderful 👍😁🐕🦺 thank you
Your yackpackin lol that's what I have always called it. Super fun.
I'm actually a graphic artist myself, and I would love to buy your merchandise. I always watch your show and I love hearing about Bigfoot. I'm a true fan and believe in Bigfoot. Keep doing what you do and I will keep b watching. Stay safe.
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
Sooo cool, everything about that trip. (Including the possible Bigfoot evidence 👣) 👍🏼
Thanks Mike...More Kayaking in 2022! Never know what's out there...
You bet! My wife , kids and I all got kayaks in the spring and love them, excited to expand on kayaking by using them for overnight trips up north in MN
Chris, I would love to buy a hat! This was an awesome video and very relaxing! I really love watching your videos after along, so relaxing! You exude happiness and a very positive energy, love it!
Thank you so much Avi! I can have a merch shelf with t's and hats once I hit 10 K subs....getting there ...we are at 9k plus
That's a beautiful Camp Spot!
Chris, excellent video...just one suggestion from someone who kayak camps a lot, wrap your pack in a trash bag and tie it off before putting it on the back of your kayak. No matter how hard you try most times due to paddling just get water setting in the dished out area where your pack is sitting causing things to get wet. I use pack liners and waterproof stuff sacks so I'm not real concerned about stuff getting wet inside my pack, but have had super wet shoulder straps and hip belts that can be a bit uncomfortable when its cooler weather👍
Yes a good call...the water finds a way to get in ...as well as the pack falling off into the lake...Yikes! I had some tie off but I need something super secure. Thank you!
Your videos are very relaxing. Thanks
Great video brother thanks for sharing your adventures
Very welcome! "Keep Hiking!"
Omg so beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome video and great looking soup.
Thanks 👍
Great adventure. Bigfeet are among us. That area has much activity
So interesting....I'd like to know more about this area and the activity!
Chris you found juvenile Sasquatch Prints! That straight line is a tell tale sign. Look How Sunk in they are for such a small foot! It goes to show the weight of these forest people and just how dense they are with muscle. GOOD EYE BUDDY!
Pretty wild finding those prints and at that time of year and nobody up there. thanks.
Great video! I enjoy it. I have not been there. Looks a lot like what I see when I paddle in the Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota. Thanks a lot for the soup recipe.
Hi Brian , I'm originally from Minnesota...grew up there. BWCA is a great place to paddle/ hike and camp. Thanks for watching.
You make the Kayak look easy !
Awesome adventure Chris and what a beautiful campsite!
Thank you Cat! yes- such a great campsite....I've Been enjoying your trips as well!
Awesome adventure man very inspiring
Thanks Noel!...I had a good time.
Great job, that soup really looked good!

My friends and I do this and call it "Yak-Packing". Great video, thanks for sharing.
Very cool! I Plan on more this year.
Awesome Adventure!!!.....thanks for sharing!
Thank you...that was a fun trip...
That potatoe soup looks awesome!
Hell YES bring on the merch!!!

I really like your videos Chris great content but I really like the gear reviews there awesome keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Funny, I have been asking the locals about Yowies, here in Australia and locally in northern Nsw there have been many sightings. Aboriginal call them Brown Jacks. What a beautiful lake, and camping spot. Enjoy your videos Chris and your logo is fun and inviting.
Interesting! I love Australia....Thank you Jane!
Drop a fishing line in and enjoy fresh fish! You couldnt have found a better spot!! 🔥 Really nice!
Enjoyed viewing this particular video. When covid-19 hit, that really put a hold for me on outdoor stuff, due to health. Your programs are therapeutic, educational, and fun to watch. Thanks! Slowing I am looking at your collection of adventures. 👍
Thank you so much! Yes- more to come!
Yeah great idea id biy it
Great video! ✌️
Thanks!
I love this so much!!! I also liked your choice of background music!
Now i watch you cook while I'm in bed starving for that 😂.
Yay! Thank you!
Amazing video again Chris.
Get the hats etc going, I would be proud to wear one on my hikes in the UK. Cheers Gavin
Will do! Thank you Gholm!
Awesome video and amazing views. Thank you for sharing
Thank you! appreciated!
Another fabulous post!! Incredible you said you haven't done the kayak backpacking before but you strapped that backpack to the kayak like a pro. Amazing photos you took too. Really neat how the lake and trees look blue in the morning. Keep hiking - from Colorado!
Bigfoot said hello to you Chris.
I think you should make some bigfoot merch! I would def buy! Hats, shirts, stickers, mugs
Chris- I really enjoy your channel. You have a great mix of trips and reviews and everything is from a perspective that I can relate to. Makes me look forward to retirement in a few years when I’ll have time to enjoy that slow pace and get out and explore. Gregg
Awesome thanks Gregg - appreciate that! ( exploring is the best )
Wonderful vid Chris I would have been suspious when I saw those tracks. Wow lol next time catch some smallmouth bass and pike those waters got to be full of them. I definitely would have been fishing some. Thanks again and as you say keep hiking!
Oh dear. I am afraid if I saw barefoot prints that big I would go back from where I once came, especially if I was camping alone. Haha! Those looked very bigfootish! Lol. Thanks for sharing your backpack/kayak camp! :)
You and me both! Very interesting at the very least! Thanks for watching.
Beautiful spot
Great video Chris, beautiful area…found your channel recently and been watching your videos for a week now, keep’em coming 👍 especially enjoy listening to the scary stories 😊
Cool, fyn the me to bird earch.
An excellent little adventure, has it all, cooking,
camping, paddling, as well as big and little foot.
Thanks Art! Good trip / great lake...more to come!
what a spot!! beautiful im jealous Chris could've invited me lol 🏞
Outstanding!
Thank you! Cheers!
Would definitely love a cap with your logo.Same color as the one your wearing.
I bet the bears love that smell! BACON! HooRah
I’m at work it’s 200 am and I want to mak potato soup.I will have it this week ..Thanks for the idea.
I would be ready to go fishing
Chris, try carrying some dryer lint, it’s light, takes virtually no space and works like a charm for starting a fire.
Very cool
Thank you Charlie!
Chris, I really enjoy your videos, especially the overnighters, keep up the mighty fine work!
Thanks, will do!
The idahoan hashbrowns you couldn't find are great. I recommend you try them. Light weight and easy to fry on a pocket rocket.
sounds good...i'll track some down!
Awesome adventure! Loved your stories! I too have heard strange sounds by the campfire at Wrights Lake in the Eldorado national forest. Keep on hiking!
Interesting! I've heard things about the Eldorado NF...Thanks Gary!
