And kudos to any volunteer groups or individuals out there who work to maintain these cabins, so that they stay in good condition and do not fall into disrepair.
i had to open up my cabin for everyone, i had locked everything up and put up 50 no trespassing signs but once a single human being spots your trail, they follow it, when they see the cabin they get excited and when the see the locked door and shutters, they break in, ransack the place, vandalize everything and steal the rest.... when you leave it open, stock some food and firewood, they seem to be much less angry
You can often see that she is concerned about it and sort of wants to remind you to come back and get it. It's neat how dogs will place themselves between two things/people if they seem to be in danger of getting separated.
I think it is a natural instinct, my little dog (Chiwi/CairnTerrier-X) does that often on our walks/hikes. Sometimes I drop a glove, and she is ahead of me. When she stops, she looks behind me and keeps staring at me, so i know there is 'something' that requires my attention. She also waits for me when I'm falling behind for ehatever reason. Like I do for her when she is having a 'sniffing-blast'. Animals are respectful and we are their leader, so.... I love it when we are walking and she is far ahead of me, then stops, looks where I am, and keeps looking at me until I caught up, like "are you ok, mom?", and other people can't believe that she does that by free will, instead of running away like most other dogs would do.
Rocko's magic doorway. There's a children's (or for anyone) book in there somewhere, Simon. I'm not even joking, I think kids would love to read about your and Rocko's adventures. Hope you had a great weekend 💚 Not a complete lemon party out here 🤣😂
Way to go the extra mile in restocking the wood supply. This video has it all ... solo hot spring, black bear glimpses, really nice cabin, slow-cooked ribs, Rocko and you. Very nice. My rainy holiday weekend is salvaged!
I never want to cook until Forest makes something incredible, only then do I remember my apartment came with a kitchen. Nice variety of adventure today!
I fucking love seeing Foresty's little meme side. It's the little splashes of character that make FF's channel so much better and natural than other "van life vlog" channels
#TRUTH #AGREED SIMON is a ONE & ONLY EPIC PERSONALITY ❣ There has never been & will NEVER be another so True, Awesome & Good! Thank You Simon You make the world a better place for us All 💯
It makes you feel good about humans when you see how people are pitching in to maintain that beautiful cabin. Nice to see you and Rocko getting out into the woods. Man that hotspring is great. It's nice that they made the valve system without going too far and spoiling the natural setting. Ol Rocko the mouse-hunter! My friend is a commercial organic farmer and she has a couple of dogs like Rocko. They are mouse/vole hunting about 95% the time their outside. There is not greater excitement for them.
We have been cherishing every moment of every video you have ever produced. AKA…we love you. But… You have especially knocked it out of the park with this one. Too bad Louie was not with you this time. Please keep up. Don’t be afraid to take your time. PLEASE! stay safe( as we know you do).
Hey Foresty forest that was a really nice Hot Springs. I’ve never seen one like that. Thanks for taking us to the mountain top I always Enjoy your climbs. The ribs looked amazing. you and Rocco you guys always make my day. Be safe out there.🇺🇸♥️👍🫶🙏🐾🏔️🚐🇨🇦
Your channel and Steve Wallace's channels are about the only channels that my hubby and I enjoy watching together. We always look forward to your journeys up the mountain and even your trips to get your van fixed. Thank you for giving my husband and I something we both can share together. Hello to Rocko. She's a beautiful dog and a great joy to watch. Thank you... from the Neumanns in Calmar Alberta.
The leaky stoves typically just need an adjustment a peice of newspaper and then a wrench and socket to fine tune the bolts. You close the door then try to pull it out
Anytime I go back to Canada it's always in the Kootenays that I linger...and for my rig there is not enough power for a Ninja Foodie but there is for a small crockpot! I'm going to try those ribs as the 1st meal when I truly go full-time!
Wonderful drone shots and incredible scenery. That hot springs looks so inviting and relaxing. The ribs were making me hungry but I had pbj for lunch. Love seeing your videos and Rocco is surely a star. Thanks for taking us along. 😊
Canada really knows how to do a hot spring! Wanna go. I have been yearning for Canada since I was 11. I am now 63 and not strong in the health or money department. So I am thankful for you showing me the land Foresty. And I love your theme song, I sing it to my dog. He likes it too. :)
I loved the sound in this video. I started paying attention to the sound when you were adding in sounds like you speaking into the tree, and that was fun. But the naturally occurring sounds then were also outstanding and enjoyable. I particularly enjoyed the fire. All the best to everyone.
There is another cabin close to that one you stayed in. Up closer to the lk. I agree with you that the kootenays are the best. I have gone all over the western usa and there is nothing like the east kootenays.
Foresty. We just crossed paths on the Continental divide. So bummed out we missed you. You were going the other way. I really wanted to shake your hand. Just did Valemont Jasper Banff. So have fun. No bugs.
This old flatlander just got back from a 6500km road trip through BC. It ended with a dip in the hot springs at Lussier. A (wonderful) taste of the life Foresty lives.
Spectacular absolutely spectacular keep it up brother lots of people I know live our lives vicariously through you you give us hope that one day we will not be chained to our organizations that keep us on the hamster wheel. You have no idea how many people love you!
Nice to see you back with the slow-cooker and the ribs. I've made that recipe many times because of your inspiration. Also started hiking a lot more. Thkx.
Top marks for the Zelda music :) The magic door reminded me of something I heard "Being a baby must be insane, you fall asleep on the couch and wake up in the supermarket"
no matter what happens in the future, you truly got to live life to its fullest! Thats all we can ask for. Saving right now to be living on the road down thru South America right now.
Every crock pot i've ever had came from a thrift store. I'm imagining half of them are abandoned wedding presents. I definitely use it more and in different ways since being inspired by FF. Even take it out in my van once in a while!
Foresty Forest theme song always brings a smile 😊
Right? I think that would be a great ringtone!
Don’t care for it myself.
Like the doggie.
Same with me cindyann, and I've been listening to it from day 1 😄👍
Silly is one of the keys to life and it is silly. Love it!
never gets old, watching Foresty and Rocko play in the mountains. Spectacular drone footage as always!
It always amazes me that there are some people who takes their time to build such amazing cabins for others to enjoy.
It was nice to see how clean it was!
And kudos to any volunteer groups or individuals out there who work to maintain these cabins, so that they stay in good condition and do not fall into disrepair.
Yeah so often they fall into rubble. Big thanks to whoever was responsible for the renovations.

Long live to the Legends foresty and Rocco ❤🎉
HEY! Hello Foresty and Rocko! You saved me from mowing the lawn for 13:00 minutes at least! Thumbs UP to you!
Ya just had to add an extra 27 seconds in huh. 😂
Yes, I am supposed to be out digging weeds in my front yard right now.
Foresty Forest is always a good excuse to put off doing yard work. 😅
Cant mow the lawn if its raining anyway ;)
With Rocko's boundless energy, you need to train her to retrieve the camera and tripod. 🙂
You can often see that she is concerned about it and sort of wants to remind you to come back and get it. It's neat how dogs will place themselves between two things/people if they seem to be in danger of getting separated.

The Crockpot is back. All is right with the world again.
Ah the return of the crock pot that started it all! I really enjoyed the very old videos of the crock pot cooking!
Rocko's magic doorway. There's a children's (or for anyone) book in there somewhere, Simon. I'm not even joking, I think kids would love to read about your and Rocko's adventures.
Hope you had a great weekend 💚
Not a complete lemon party out here 🤣😂
oh, what a GREAT idea❤!!!! I can imagine writing that book either by or with Loui together would fruit into a huge success for both of them 😎😁
Hope he reads that ..agree
"Mom, what's a lemonparty?"

you left out FF singing to the trees
Thanks Foresty. So nice to spend time with you and Rocko. You always make me hungry, though. If you ever leave van life, a cooking channel is a must.
I never want to cook until Forest makes something incredible, only then do I remember my apartment came with a kitchen. Nice variety of adventure today!
😂😂😂😂
Happy Memorial Day everyone.!!!!
This is Canada...
This is TH-cam
@@noleftturnunstoned Canadians gave their lives for Freedom too but that was before the Communist took over.
@@vanman3752 Did they? Some tell the liberals. The bankers will not be pleased.
No Memorial Day, this is Canada. We have our own holidays

💯 percent agree!!

SIMON is a ONE & ONLY EPIC PERSONALITY ❣
There has never been & will NEVER be another so True, Awesome & Good!
Thank You Simon
You make the world a better place for us All 💯
No.
Oh yes, those ribs looked amazing... And a new windshield to boot - these are good times for Foresty!!

Can you post directions for the trailhead to that hotspring?
Forestry’s been ever so cheery lately. 😃
Being back in the Kootenays is highlight of the year ✨️
It’s got to be the girl Loui
He's making babies loui that y he's so cheery 🤔🤔🤣😭
Where is Loui? Miss her!
Love the natural bath. Having that all to myself would be bliss.
It's a magical doorway for us too!
lol the 'ok lets go' shoutout! hilarious. love u Forestyyyyy
I swear your videos just keep getting better and better 😃🇨🇦
Thank you!
The “okay les go” bit got me. Good stuff.
We have been cherishing every moment of every video you have ever produced.
AKA…we love you.
But…
You have especially knocked it out of the park with this one.
Too bad Louie was not with you this time.
Please keep up.
Don’t be afraid to take your time.
PLEASE! stay safe( as we know you do).
Thank you! This episode felt good to release, nice when things work out!
Hey Foresty forest that was a really nice Hot Springs. I’ve never seen one like that. Thanks for taking us to the mountain top I always Enjoy your climbs. The ribs looked amazing. you and Rocco you guys always make my day. Be safe out there.🇺🇸♥️👍🫶🙏🐾🏔️🚐🇨🇦
He brought the old crockpot back life
Seeing a log cabin with a green roof gives this gen-x viewer nostalgia for playing with Lincoln Logs as a kid. Great video as always Foresty.
Whoo! Great start to a Monday!
Best theme song ever. Also... can't believe you said "lemon party" amazing
Yayyy!!! He finally got a new windshield!
Here's hoping that the new one does not get cracked!
Cracked out?
I keep praying for the day he gets that crease in the door fixed. Nah, don't do that it adds character!
Lemon party. Lol. Great reference
was wondering if anyone else would get that--hark back to ye olden days of the internet---hello from Ireland FF, and kevdel
@@KYUSSgreenmachine up tipp. Up ridin
I almost did a spit take there!
I started laughing like a loon and then had to explain the reference to my partner. Absolute genius!
What does it mean?
Lemonparty!!! Haven't heard that in a while!!! :)
lol, internet history eh :)
@@forestyforest Can't unsee Tubgirl either... ;)
That’s pretty cool that valves are installed to fill the hot springs “tub” to the temperature you desired!
It's so sweet that you shared having your dinner with the crockpot! 🙂
I dug the suspense of being put in Rave mode, then a quick and dramatic cut to Rocko sniffing something on the wind.
On this Memorial Day we pay tribute to our fallen hero the Crockpot 😁
Long live the crockpot!!
😂😂😂😂😂
May it stay on its warm setting for all of eternity.
😂
It gave its life in service to its cause. So noble.
Thank you Foresty and Rocko for another great adventure 🌲🌲🌲!!!
omg the "okay lets go" HAD me lmao
Lol me too
Half a million subs right around on the corner!
You, Rocko and your videos are such a welcome relief from all the fear and drama. Thank you for that.
Ahhh, the good ol’ crock pot 😊 I still remember that time in the minivan when it pulled a knife on you 🤣
Good times in the Rocko mountains ... ❤
Straight up ribs for dinner. No messing around with vegetables. Respect.
😅
A few days ago my wife asked me what I wanted for Father's Day and I just said "ribs."
Respect? LOL, are you okay?
💯
How much fun is this? I checked to see if a new video had dropped earlier this morning and randomly came back to see this. Cheap thrills.
Such a beautiful channel and fellowship. Jesus Christ Loves You all so very deeply. Nature shows His handiwork so majestically. ❤️
That spring is frickin awesome
Safe travels Foresty Forest. Love watching your epic adventures.
Those views from uptop are always so amazing, such a different perspective. Nice to see you enjoying life & relaxing at the end with those ribs.♨️
@@NancyHanson3472 No Nancy, I meant the views from the mountain summits. Always so breathtaking. 🤗
The "okay lets go" reference at 2:39 was literally the last thing I was expecting for you! haha
Wow nice hot spring! Great cabin as well ❤
We want to see more of you and Loui please! Thanks!!
Blessed is the humble crockpot for it will nourish the heart and soul of all who come to her.
That's more like it
Such a beautiful and peaceful and wonderful Video,,, Thank you Foresty,,,🙏🙏🌷🌷☺️☺️👏👏
Your channel and Steve Wallace's channels are about the only channels that my hubby and I enjoy watching together. We always look forward to your journeys up the mountain and even your trips to get your van fixed. Thank you for giving my husband and I something we both can share together. Hello to Rocko. She's a beautiful dog and a great joy to watch. Thank you... from the Neumanns in Calmar Alberta.
Everybody loves Steve Wallace but he needs some editing lessons from Foresty
Even though I’ve heard it THOUSANDS OF TIMES already… that theme song (intro music) ALWAYS cracks me up 😆. Freakin love it
Beauty ! BTW - That's a deluxe hot spring for sure... nice.
Thanks for sharing the thought of Rocko’s magic door transporting her to a new adventure. The brief look at the world through her eyes warms my heart.
Chopping and stacking wood for the next person! Always practicing “etiquette” leave no trace and cleaning up after others.
You are right in my backyard! So many van lifers out here, never sure if it is you or not.
The fairy fountain bit was a nice touch, definitely more of that!
Nothing beats a new forestyforest video. My day is complete
The leaky stoves typically just need an adjustment a peice of newspaper and then a wrench and socket to fine tune the bolts. You close the door then try to pull it out
A hot spring with taps to control the temp?! What an age we live in.
Fairy fountain is special to me just as OOT entirely!! I knew you were cool beans when I heard ice cavern from your first van video years back.
From here is S.W. Ont. the Kootenays look oh, so inviting! Thanks and always watching for the next adventure.
Haha nice Zelda plug, fairy fountain
That slow zoom in to the ribs. Nice.
Anytime I go back to Canada it's always in the Kootenays that I linger...and for my rig there is not enough power for a Ninja Foodie but there is for a small crockpot! I'm going to try those ribs as the 1st meal when I truly go full-time!
Wasn't expecting 2:36 at all 🤣 Hope you're keeping well Foresty!
Snow-covered mountains in May and BBQ'd ribs. It doesn't get any better than that. Thanks for taking us along.
It's good seeing you again. Thanks for taking us on the adventure. Rocko needs her own channel.
Wonderful drone shots and incredible scenery. That hot springs looks so inviting and relaxing. The ribs were making me hungry but I had pbj for lunch. Love seeing your videos and Rocco is surely a star. Thanks for taking us along. 😊
What a nice cabin , a bear and a summit. Followed by ribs. Living the dream. Take care, Al
Your videos always make me smile and inspire me to get out there. I could smell those ribs from my living room in CO.lol🙂
Canada really knows how to do a hot spring! Wanna go. I have been yearning for Canada since I was 11. I am now 63 and not strong in the health or money department. So I am thankful for you showing me the land Foresty. And I love your theme song, I sing it to my dog. He likes it too. :)

Quite literally the best channel on TH-cam. Your genuineness makes all the difference. Another great video!!
Thanks 🙂🙂🙂
Nice to see you back with the slow-cooker and the ribs. I've made that recipe many times because of your inspiration. Also started hiking a lot more. Thkx.
Foresty is my spirit animal! I'm not quite ready to live in my van but I do take crock-pot hiking journeys 😆
Top marks for the Zelda music :) The magic door reminded me of something I heard "Being a baby must be insane, you fall asleep on the couch and wake up in the supermarket"
Another great video. Your camera has beautiful crisp definition, great quality! Best to you both!
“Rocko’s Magic Door” … kids centric channel side hustle, talking dog on her adventures with you, Wishbone TV show style
The snow with the cabin in the background was the money shot. So beautiful
Its people like you that will never let the Legend of Zelda die. Great work S!
Aw mannn. ...that was very cool , the "Lets's go" tree ...drone shots and amazing scenery. Thank you Simon and Rocko....be well !!
no matter what happens in the future, you truly got to live life to its fullest! Thats all we can ask for. Saving right now to be living on the road down thru South America right now.
Thats one hell of a spot for the hot spring, amazing view and its clean!
I love cabin videos!
You can do as many of these as you want, as far as I'm concerned!
And much safer than sleeping outside with the bears, I would imagine!
And hot springs! And Louie!
Beautiful scenery...
🎶❤🎶 Blessing everyone!🌱
Keep it up with the Zelda theme music
It was a fantastic addition 😂
初めまして！！

Rocco was smelling Mr Bear, I bet. I have the same crockpot. It was a wedding present 50 years ago and still works! Great episode!
Every crock pot i've ever had came from a thrift store. I'm imagining half of them are abandoned wedding presents. I definitely use it more and in different ways since being inspired by FF. Even take it out in my van once in a while!
The drone shots gets me every time. It’s amazing
So envious of you and then again, that is a lot of hard work to keep it going.
Another great video. Good work Simon.
