The solitude and security of what nature gives, cannot be duplicated. Oh boy I'm jealous, spring needs to come for me to get back to camping again. Dang medical issues delaying my fun. Thanks for letting me live through you in my off season.
From so cal. Cougars are a thing here. You don't see them. They don't want you to. If you do be careful because you either scare them or they want your pet.
That wanting to be petted thing doesn't wear out, even for a wild animal. What you said is true, because it's happened to me. As far as wanting your pet, they don't really "want" it. Hunger is more of an option than an instinct to be afraid of something that the wild thing doesn't understand.
I love how you point out how, where you pick your spot to stay the nite, wether in city or campsite, along the road, safety, water, backing into a spot, how long to stay, very informative, thankyou, 💕 cruzie/you, denise from pa.
At 14:55 would be a beautiful picture chrome and having a heater for cruz and ac for him as well your the best chrome and the cruzy bear is so lucky to have you
Love your videos. Not that I will do any camping etc., because I have had back surgery that went south.😥 You are a wealth of information though for all those that are in the beginning, the middle or just "dolling" up their van! So, here goes my friend, buy, Cruzie an out side bed please. He would enjoy it so so much. Love you and Cruzie! God's blessings.
Hey, Chrome! Not sure if y’all have Dollar Trees in Canada, but they have cheap, $1.25 puck lights that have a sticky substance on the back, where you can affix it to the inside of your storage.
Glorious scenery.. Just love the chilled vibe and it's great watching you immerse yourself in the joyful experience of living your dream life. Cruz is the PERFECT companion - what a dude! Generally your videos make me smile..this certainly is one of those. Greetings from Australia.
Got yourself a new sub. I’ve been coming back and checking in on your channel for a long time now, so today I pressed subscribe when I should’ve done it sooner 😆 just love your vibe and your boy cruzie. Currently building my own camper too. Thanks for all the content you put out! From the U.K. 🇬🇧
There's something about being out nature smelling those pine trees and fresh air after moisture has been on the ground it's heaven, I can't wait to get my van finished and just put the middle finger up to the world and say I'm going back to live in, lounge chair campfires in the beauty of nature is what it's all about
Been watching your videos from the day u moved into your van. Ypur the reason I and my wife will be visiting Vancouver Island this summer from Ontario. I may not be a patron member but TH-cam has kept me involved in your life and thank you. Hope to cross your path while out on are road trip !!! Thank you Thank you .. keep the videos coming. Also can't wait for ambulance to be done to.see final product
Your Living the Dream Chrome your Living the Dream... Thanks to you an Cruz Love the outdoor Adventure 🌿👍💕👍🌿 Keep on being you...7 Oh by the way forget the light on top jus use a headlamp 💡
These are my favorite episodes chrome!!! I love to just watch you chill in your van and see the coziness and jyst living on your down time at night!!! More more
Apparently Vancouver Island is full of Squatches too. LOL. Beautiful cinematography Chrome. I love the Island. My favorite place in all of BC. I have lots of family over there . Such a gorgeous place. Hugs and love to Cruzy.
Love the video! Really get sad though seeing all the deforestation! Nothing compares to virgin unspoiled forest. I love camping in the Hoh rainforest of the Olympics where its magical with giant trees and ferns.
Some years ago I was in Colorado's Roosevelt National Forest in a nice meadow and I parked my mini van with all windows to sleep for the night. It was mid summer still daylight as I started to go to sleep. As I closed my eyes I was awakened by something outside. When I opened my eyes there were 6 cows looking in my windows waiting to get fed or looking to bed down for the night next to a vehicle to feel safe from bears or coyotes.
A battery powered kick board light that uses a strong adhesive strip may work for your carrier light if you haven't already thought of it. Yeah, I know suggestions are a dime a dozen, but just thought I'd mention it. :)
One of the things I always notice in your videos is the amount of clear cuts. They're everywhere. Years ago I spent five months in the Whistler area and remember that as well. Still, it's absolutely gorgeous. As far as animals go you're right. They don't want anything to do with humans for the most part. Although you do get some interesting encounters once in a while. Once, during a weekend backpacking trip in Alaska there were four of us sitting around the fire when out of the darkness a cow moose literally walked between us and the fire. Scared the crap out of us but she seemed totally unperturbed and just continued on her way.
Me too Chrome, I wear shorts 24/7 even in the winter, pants r very very uncomfortable, I'm glad I'm not the only weirdo, stay safe my weirdo friend, Holleren at u from West Tennessee, USA
Hi Chrome, I'm one of the weirdos who wears shorts all year round, I threw my pants away, I love all your country camp sites, keep on being weird, us weirdos stick together.
Chrome you could possibly consider movement sensor lights. I have 5 on my stairs. They are battery operated and as soon as they sense movement they turn on. Xx
My husband and I are really wanting to get into this life. I made my 1st video on here talking about it and would greatly appreciate ANY advice on where to start with things! You're my favorite person to watch because your so real about things ❤️
Your videos are spot on. Enjoying every one you put out. Wish I could get out into to back country, for now I watch your videos and dream of these amazing places. This will have given you some renewed energy for when you get back to the shop and continue the work on the Beast. Can't wait to see what's next. Thank you for getting us a bit of nature. Much love 🤗🤗
It is truly inspiring to see the van life from many perspectives. You bring a really nice unique view of it and the experience as well. I have been thinking about getting my own van for a long time, but always get sucked into convincing myself not to do it, even internally I know it is the right thing to do. Watching your videos might be the thing that pushes me over the line to gain the confidence to make that leap. Thank you and keep creating :)
Cruzie was adorable dozing off on front of the heater. I can never get enough of thise gorgeous drone shots. You know, there far worse things than a campfire to smell like. Skunk, for instance! Enjoy the solitude.
I'd get a 360 camera. You could use it for maneuvers and security. That'd be so awesome to be able to see what's around at any time while laying in bed lol
Your nature drone shots with EPIC RELAXING MUSIC is so amazing! I’d love to watch an entire video just of this, no talking, just to relax to.
I agree. Love the drone shots. Just enough here and there but nothing overwhelming.
Cruz has always been such a protector 😀 and is such a sweetheart.
Cruzie is so adorable ❤❤❤❤
Last 2 episodes have had incredible views. Great work on the drone shots.
Love your drone footage. It really shows the vastness of the beauty.
Cruzie sleeping sitting up! ❤❤❤❤
Cruzie is watching out for Bigfoot... absolutely stunning scenery. 😊🏴
Maybe Cruzzie smells a bigfoot is nearby.
Took the words right out of my mouth. He's In the heart of Squatch country out there! 😉🦧
Wear a headlamp at night when you are out in the bush. You can access light right away and blind any predators and you can look into your carrier. 🤗

You're a master at matching the music to your videos!! I too would like a long video to relax by!
Cruzie is smart.
Chrome, I like how your brain is always thinking, panning, creating! lol go chrome! hugs for cruze.
My grandma lived in Vancouver, remember living in Seattle and traveling there to see her. What a beautiful place all day. Cruise is so adorable 😍
Cruz is so smart bro he’s a real bodyguard.

Love ❤️ the suggestion!

So cozy, the sound of the cracking fire love it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🫶

Gosh that morning view 🌲🌲🌲! Love your thumbnails without the titles it makes a picture worth a thousand words 💯👍👏♥️!
Vancouver Island does not have Coyotes. It does have wolves in some locations.
Chrome loving the ditch water showers.
At 14:55 would be a beautiful picture chrome and having a heater for cruz and ac for him as well your the best chrome and the cruzy bear is so lucky to have you
Your drone shots of the forest and ocean were beautiful! Ty!
Love your videos. Not that I will do any camping etc., because I have had back surgery that went south.😥 You are a wealth of information though for all those that are in the beginning, the middle or just "dolling" up their van!

Hello Chrome and Cruze , shut the door and keep the heat in!
Glorious scenery.. Just love the chilled vibe and it's great watching you immerse yourself in the joyful experience of living your dream life. Cruz is the PERFECT companion - what a dude! Generally your videos make me smile..this certainly is one of those. Greetings from Australia.
Rotten wood burns really fast, great starter and ending wood. 🔥
I’m Digging Those Camo Long Pants!😊
Loved How You Did Fast Mode On The Clouds… Cleaver!🤗
Got yourself a new sub. I’ve been coming back and checking in on your channel for a long time now, so today I pressed subscribe when I should’ve done it sooner 😆 just love your vibe and your boy cruzie. Currently building my own camper too.

Waving a hand from texas would love to spend some time up there

Your Living the Dream Chrome your Living the Dream...
Thanks to you an Cruz Love the outdoor Adventure 🌿👍💕👍🌿
Keep on being you...7
Oh by the way forget the light on top jus use a headlamp 💡
I feel like the shower is a game changer as a couple tanks of propane is way cheaper than a gym membership
We just got -45C windchill over the weekend my friend. Be blessed that you can have bare skin outside LOL 🥶 Bundle up and be cozy!!!!🔥
Yeah beautiful scenery to wake up to, yeah we’re here watching
Every time you call cruzie “Bro”, my heart melts. 🥰🫠
You don't know how jealous I am of where you are right now. 😢
These are my favorite episodes chrome!!! I love to just watch you chill in your van and see the coziness and jyst living on your down time at night!!! More more
What a beautiful area. Thank you so much Chrome. So peaceful
Beautiful scenery, gorgeous sky shots. Thank you

Maybe a few earth magnets for mounting?
Your views are absolutely gorgeous!
Hello to you n Cruisey🤗
I love the scenery just like the throw hiking videos
Beautiful place the scenery is gorgeous!!
Great video 📹. Thanks Chrome, and Cruzie.
Love your channel. Take care Cruzie and Chrome.
I have a motion sensor light on inside of my camping fridge, works great
These tree landscapes are amazing
Great drone footage, we get to see what you see.

Dude, the darkness is literally the only thing keeping me out of the back country, thank you for talking about that!
I have missed this with you and Cruzie and the back country.
Yes it's beautiful
Beautiful view. Take care from Nashville TN❤
Livin it up Nice views. Thanks for the videos. Keep up the great work Saludos from Texas.
Me too Chrome, I wear shorts 24/7 even in the winter, pants r very very uncomfortable, I'm glad I'm not the only weirdo, stay safe my weirdo friend, Holleren at u from West Tennessee, USA
Hi Chrome, I'm one of the weirdos who wears shorts all year round, I threw my pants away, I love all your country camp sites, keep on being weird, us weirdos stick together.
be careful of the animals Chrome, stay safe in the van nice and warm. nice views from the drone.
Beauty scenery. I agree cruzie is adorable. Take care and enjoy back country.
The scenery is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the aerial view. WOW! Take care Chrome and give Cruisey a kiss for me. Love you guys.
💯💯💯🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️ GOSH YOU out did yourself on the footage of this video and so Epic with Cruzeeee 🐶to watch out for you 🙌🙌!
Back country there is majestic like here in Utah. 💜
But we don't have the ocean. 🌊
Chrome you could possibly consider movement sensor lights. I have 5 on my stairs. They are battery operated and as soon as they sense movement they turn on. Xx
for lighting the inside of the carrier you can use a battery operated led puck light with. a sticker back.
its such a joy watching your video. i cant travel anymore so im watching through your eyes. thank youit makes my days
Yep it work I got that to around my wood fair
My husband and I are really wanting to get into this life. I made my 1st video on here talking about it and would greatly appreciate ANY advice on where to start with things! You're my favorite person to watch because your so real about things ❤️

Love that opening irony “how beautiful “ as you look across a field of dead tree stumps. Lol
Love you guys!
Hi Chrome
Hi Chrome and Cruz ❤❤❤ I love your videos. 😊😊😊
Watch out for Taka Hé. Things can get squatchy.
Man that is beautiful country.
2 for 2 bro! Another incredible video of you roaming the mountains. Love this stuff! Keep it comin’. ✌️😉
See you on next one.
Get a collapsible bucket to hold water from ditches for your shower. Love your adventures in back country and shop.
Oh, hey, LOVE the PJ'S. 👍
The cold keeps them bears hibernating. I'd rather the cold then dealing with the bears.
I’d be fearful as far out as you travel.
Awesomeness
It looks so beautiful out there.
Thank u for sharing...you have this life style down packed. Love Canada and the photos. Be safe out there.🙏✌️
SMART MOVE WATCHING WEATHER
It is truly inspiring to see the van life from many perspectives. You bring a really nice unique view of it and the experience as well.

Thank you Chrome.. Cruise likes the fire.
This is so beautiful! its what i watch your channel for! it would be nice to see some footage of wild life.
Cruzie was adorable dozing off on front of the heater. I can never get enough of thise gorgeous drone shots. You know, there far worse things than a campfire to smell like. Skunk, for instance! Enjoy the solitude.
luv r little cruzy boy the protector
You will be painting the Ambo every 2 weeks but I completely understand the cost for the coating.
I'd get a 360 camera. You could use it for maneuvers and security. That'd be so awesome to be able to see what's around at any time while laying in bed lol
I Chrome and Cruzie ❤❤❤❤love your videos.
Wishing you well!
you got lights out ther flat and powerd by the sun, enjoy looking into that! See you on the next.
