Hey Steve. There was a guy who has his own utube channel and credits you for saving his life. He has stopped drinking because he saw your videos and one video you did was at Walmart. You said if it’s 8am and your drinking you need to revalue your life. So he went camping. He is now 8 months sober bro. I pray all is well for you. Again I am so sorry about your wife. Don’t give up. You have changed peoples lives. Including mine. Thank you. Steve B.
So tonight I'm hunkering down in the display model for hunting blinds. And since the blind is already up.... you know what time it is.... -cracks the can open-
🙏❤️🙏 I pray that it's removed and you're healed, 2 years ago I was battling breast cancer, went threw chemo, 38 rounds of radiation and surgery to remove 12 affected lymph nodes . God is good and I pray he heals you also....
Still, I think part of the thrill of stealth camping is trying not to be seen at all. I don't think most people would be mad at him (especially if he explained what he was doing), but getting seen would defeat the purpose.
Dont know where ur from bud, lol-but as a person with common sense, some people might-not saying you or I would; but there's plenty of people out there who call the police on more trivial stuff than this, like kids skateboarding or loitering in a parking lot-also there are signs posted just about everywhere these days that inform people near that what they're doing is technically illegal. On your side here, if I saw anyone crawling under a bush and hunkering down, either a stealth camper like Steve or a homeless individual, I'd just about never call the police-also not naive enough to think people won't; hence the stealth
@@vtpguitarist he probably thinks of these types of vids thinking about views: hes said multiple times he has trouble thinking of 'interesting' ideas for videos-not that his real base of subscribers would care all that much, but seeing as "stealth camping in: x" gets more views than your average vid, I'd say it's safe to say he's camping behind home depot/Canadian tire/a police station for us :) he's got a youtube channel, not everything the guy does is what he's actually doing all the time lol
Steve is great because he's the perfect combination of law abiding citizen and rebel. Somewhere along the way he got it into his head that stealth camping is the most wholesome and decent criminal act one can do and he's fallen in love. Where-as some men might go mad with mischief and forget themselves, you can tell Steve is always very self-aware and really has no interest in getting caught or doing anything terrifically outrageous. For Steve, he's just there for a bit of adrenaline, a bit of suspense and a beer or two. Bravo, ol' chap, bravo.
to be fair, its not a criminal act at all, He's said so in other videos but basically his local laws dictate that its not trespassing unless there's a sign that specifically says no trespassing in that area or if someone tells him so. hes basically just doing a classier version of taking a nap on a park bench lol Maybe sort of frowned upon, but law abiding nonetheless.
@@ryanking32 yeah his ‘interpretation’ of the law isnt how laws work 😂 however i doubt he would actually get in any real trouble for this lol he acts like hes really committing a serious crime and is always super paranoid like people care 😂 he scares himself for no reason lol
I highly doubt stealth camping will get you in trouble. You will probably always get asked to move on, nothing less. This has happened to me twice when i camped on private land. But i have camped 100s of times on private wooded areas without anyone caring
Imagine someone coming across Steve. They’d assume they found some homeless guy, but here is a man who has over half a million followers on social media, and is doing it for shits n giggles. Priceless.
Eh they generally don't care so long as you are out of sight and out of mind, specially if you aren't making a mess and leaving trash everywhere. Been homeless before and camped out in spot like that.
@@SilvaDreams Depends. Some counties and their politicians seem to be at war with homeless folks. I've been a half mile into the woods sleeping in a tent and had cops wake me up and confiscate my tent and belongings.
Having a beer or 6 in the woods by yourself is something I’ve found a lot of peace and solitude with, just cut whatever’s stressing you out and being in the presence of nature and trees and the animals, it beats watching Netflix all day. I think it’s good for the soul and helps me think clearly. Good video man keep it up!
I never done what Steve wallis had done. I do like nature and the occasional beer. I think it would be relaxing drinking and being there. You are surrounded by trees and the small stream
@@monkeysuncle2816 I tried finding ken kifer on TH-cam and literally nothing not even one video and I scrolled for quite a while. I'm interested in this ken kifer so any advice?
Thursdays' is the day that my family gathers after dinner and watches a "Camping with Steve" video. Everyone from the adults to the three year old loves to see what Steve is going to do next. We love the humor, the good spirit, and the adventure!!! Thank you 😊
Camping in such a healthy thing to teach the young ones too! I'm 30 now, I grew up camping with my parents basically my whole life and I couldn't be more thankful. So relaxing, keeps you active, and keeps you out of trouble
@@abundanceintheson_316 That's awesome I hope you guys enjoy it! Where are you located? I'm in Ohio USA. I camp about 9 months out of the year. I skip the coldest winter months because I'm not Steve haha. Nothing better than a cool fall night and a big pot of chili cooking over the campfire
@@dustinclouse6888 We are over in Oregon USA. Hubby is an all year round camper. He has a hot tent for the Winter months. I have camped in our "rainy season" (Fall/Winter) but generally try to avoid that with kids. Right now,we are waiting to get a vehicle to carry all of us since we are now a larger family than 3 months ago!
@@abundanceintheson_316 That is so awesome! I've always wanted to visit Oregon. Looks like a beautiful place. Especially for camping! How cold do your winters get over there? Winters are pretty mild here in Ohio. Usually 30's or 40's. We get about 3 weeks of temperatures in the teens and that's about it
Paddled down the Mississippi River, MN to NOLA. Army Corps of engineers created sand islands up and down the river with all the dredging operations. Made for perfect camping. Transferred to a bicycle heading north out of Florida. I always waited until near sunset to pick a church yard campsite. Then I got back on the road at sunrise. Took creek baths along the way.
As we were watching this I realized you were just down the road from us. I told my husband "Look honey, Steve found a good place for you to camp out the next time we have a fight." He didn't see the humor in it. We always look forward to your videos.
He’s doing the adult version of „dude this would be a sick smoke spot.“ I love how hard he tries not to get caught even though there wouldn’t be any consequences. That’s the whole point of stealth camping! I’m glad I’ve found this channel ❤
Yeah you would think he is in for a long jail time by the way he brings it, but at worst he would get a small fine but most likely just being asked to leave xD
No totally not the adult version of this would b a sick smoke spot...wow...lol he's trying to teach yall how to frilkin survive if shit hits the fan don't be naive
I used to work at a private golf course and homeless people would camp out in the bushes near the course all the time. They had unlimited clean water and could snatch up all the free beer/drinks/food from the coolers left out around the course after tournaments. They (the golf course) never wanted the stuff back so it was a race between them and us (the teenagers managing the course afterhours) to get the beer. We'd leave them the other stuff though
Hope you are healing and getting through your loss. These old videos showed a lot of happiness that may not be there at the moment. Good thoughts for you in your tough road. Peace from the states.
"I'm just gonna caaaaasually..." *takes off running* And don't worry about expired MREs. Shame it didn't work. Another Steve would like to speak with you.
Total admiration. And, I love the narrative. My sons used to talk themselves through an adventure wen they were little guys. "Okay, Jimmy, now the soldier hides behind the garage."
The wind , with 20 mph gust, was cold and relentless as I walked 75 north through Detroit. My objective was Northern mich but fatigue was taking its toll and decided I needed sleep, but the expressway I was walking offers nothing but concrete. Totally exhausted I came across an over pass. The only place out of the cold wind ,I found, was between the bridge colum and the guardrail, between two lanes of traffic. After awhile I could hear a roar, not from the traffic going by but from the crowd at Comerica Park. Tiger stadium! Never been there but listened to many of the games. I count that in the top 10 of my childhood adventures. Thanks Steve. You are a survivor.
Hey, Steve.. Im from the state of Illinois here in America, and have experienced homelessness.. In witch being Stealthy had a Large involvement being in that situation.. And, i wanted to say i appreciate your time creating this videos.. Showing how to camp properly in tight quarters.. Thank u, Steve.. Stay Safe Out Their..
Hey bro... I experienced the same thing at 18 years old. 2 years later I have my own place with a good job and I’m playing guitar everyday and even have a little band. Good luck brother it will get better. I’m an insanely nervous pushover, yet I somehow made it so I’m sure anyone could. Hope all is well for you and give an update if you ever see this.
I was wondering about if he ever has been caught. I was leaning towards no. Thanks for clarifying. I just started watching his channel. Really enjoy it.
Spuce Grove boy here! This is my home town. My fiance worked at that home depot for two years. Lol, lots of people actually camp in there, believe it or not. Keep up the good work repping the 780, Steve!!
When I worked at Home Depot in Vermont we had a homeless encampment about the same amount of distance that you camped at. We actually would bring them some food and water. 🙂
I met Steve about a year ago while he was Stealth Camping a park like strip of land on the Turnpike. Truly an exciting guy 🏴☠️ I'm a VAN CAMPER and his seasoned ways are REAL 🥊
The nearby streetlight is doubly helpful because anyone up in the lot will have their eyes adjusted to that light level, making it even harder to see you in the dark woods.
These are the 'bread & butter' (so to speak) type of videos that got me hooked on 'Campin with Steve'. Good to see a good ol fashioned stealthy 'hunker down'.
Yeah Steve u have changed my life as well, was going through some rough and troubled times, and was fine with it, but something in ur videos made me want to change that, and try and better my life, while being a 2x cancer survivor, that lost lower left leg when I was 14
Mr. Steve Wallis, I love your humility man. You are a true person. Throughout life's adversity you seem to stay poised on loving to live life. Your videos are truly inspiring. The urban stealth camping thing is a real way to experience a very unique lifestyle. For Fun? Even better. I have seen every video from your boondocking documentary to anniversary vid and everything in between. Your content is real and I love our chanel. Keep living life the way you want. You shine...
The fact that this guy's channel is successful somewhat restores my faith in humanity. Hes such a genuine guy who basically conveys that there are simpler ways of life than doing the rat race.
Yes, I’m already getting burned out doing the SSDD routine everyday. And my job goes to different jobsites regularly. I find myself living vicariously through the videos guys like this put up.
I'm imagining Friday morning the security guys are all hovering around watching videos of the night before, when one yells out "Hey, isn't this that Hunker-down guy in our parking lot"?
Steve i been watching your channel for a very long time now. Thank you for all you do. I just lost my leg do to health issues. I'm very proud of you please keep making these videos. You may not see this but I hope you do . Praying for you always brother
You can boil water by filling the beverage bag and placing the beverage bag carefully inside the flameless heater. You can heat anything in a flameless heater and they are often hot enough to do two entrees or and entree and a dessert. Fun facts that might save your life.
Thank you Steve for the perfect timing releasing this video! You've really helped me a great deal these past few weeks with me discovering your videos and how you offer me comfort and entertainment with your adventures. I'm currently spending the last night in an awful apartment (extremely noisy neighbors) and it has been really stressful living here with a lot of sleepless nights. Watching your videos before bedtime always seem to calm me down, so I appreciate it all man. Tomorrow though, I am finally moving into my new place in a calmer area. So right now I am here in the dark, in the bed, all hunkered down and ready to press play on this video. I always upvote your videos before I see them cause you deserve it pal! Your videos have kept me sane through this challenging time! You are the man
Was a manager at Depot for 10 yrs...they could care less that you're there as long as you don't bother anybody. They almost certainly don't own the land past that fence.
That was my take on this video, too. The security cameras must have caught him going into the woods with the backpack, coming out without it and heading in the direction of the pub, going back in, and coming out in the morning with the pack. Doesn't take a genius to know he's camping there overnight.
I just looked on Google maps! Ha! Wow, tiny work but more spacious than behind that sign. Now Steve, do like that pommy guy and find a roundabout or offramp circle to camp in the Middle of 😎
As someone who use to do a lot of camping and now generally avoids it because of the discomfort it causes, these videos make me want to find my nearest woods and go to sleep.
When using old chemical heaters of dubious effectiveness, dump the packet of salt into the heater pre-water, then wait 30 mins. The salt will help make the entree hot AF.
"I'm thirsty!" Steve proceeds to Rehydrate with Beer. Old reliable H2O is only good for heating up MRE's 😁🤣 got my hunker down fix today. Thanks Steve!
The level of self and situational awareness is admirable. I love what you do man and I’m absorbing your knowledge, please continue and you earned a new subscriber.❤️
i know this is a bit old, but some info about the mres! i spent about a decade training and fighting in cold weather environments and i always found that if mres are stored for a long period of time in tight packed cold environments (like a connex for a few months) it worked wonders to kind of knead to water into the sachet inside of the flameless ration heater. seems like the chemicals get compressed into a cake and dont allow enough surface area for the water to interact with the chemicals.
This guy is hilarious. His river trip with crazy neighbor is the best. However, be advised tens of thousands are camping behind the Home Depot in Imperial Beach, CA alone. No lie.
I like to try and look up Steve's camp sites on Google Maps... Was very surprised to zoom in on this Home Depot and see "Camping with Steve" tagged in the area behind it and the Dairy Queen haha! Pretty cool. Love ya Steve mate!
I’m an old woman and my countdown begins on Friday morning (sure makes for a long countdown) Don’t be embarrassed if your Thursdays are the special day!
Right on man! Your channel speaks to the inner child in me that was always wanting to camp in the most obvious places yet still be “wild” 😂 you the man!
Ayo Steve! Trick to those flameless ration heaters is to bend and flex that paper part inside the plastic, sort of fold it back and forth a bunch of different ways and crap. Also, once you got the water and the stuff in the bag, give it two good folds at the top and give it a shake or two. Should activate it and get it hot!
It’s hard to get an idea so to how urban Steve is here. That small patch of woodland is truly nestled in amongst one huge urban sprawl with literally every popular retail chain within a few blocks and in true Steve fashion, a Canadian Tire only a block away. Honestly Steve, fair play to you man! The fact you got in there without being seen is one thing but going out for walks and food is another. Hats off to you buddy, great entertainment 👍

As a trucker, theres no way i'd call security on someone homeless, let alone just camping lol.
Yeah, I don’t know if Steve was playing it up for fun or what, but there’s a zero percent chance that driver gave any shit what he was up to. Haha
Still, I think part of the thrill of stealth camping is trying not to be seen at all. I don't think most people would be mad at him (especially if he explained what he was doing), but getting seen would defeat the purpose.

Bubbles?!! Is that you? Steve channeling Bubbles.. "trucker with his window down. Probably on the phone with home depot security right now"
At 2:26 all I could think was "These carts are public domain, Ricky!"
Bang on!
looool!!
holy shit
😆😆😆🤟🤟🤟
No bubbles. Get back here.
*Slides down hill*
Fuck!
I’ve been watching for a couple years now. Still have yet to see Steve get “caught”. This man is undefeated
Does he cheat and the caught videos don't get put up?
I was wondering about if he ever has been caught. I was leaning towards no. Thanks for clarifying. I just started watching his channel. Really enjoy it.
@@agedefyingfitness believe he got caught behind the sign by a couple atv's.
Umm, he has never been caught because he isn’t doing anything wrong and no one is looking for him lmfao…
@@gigib.965 Does that stop the police?
Spuce Grove boy here! This is my home town. My fiance worked at that home depot for two years. Lol, lots of people actually camp in there, believe it or not. Keep up the good work repping the 780, Steve!!
Steve Wallis, a man with a home who enjoys being homeless.
camping is pretending to be homeless
@@georges8200 sounds like something Jeremy Clarkson would say
@@placeholder577 and he complained bitterly about it when he was in the mountains in India!
We all have our thing😭 some like being homeless
Well when he’s making a pretty penny doing this why wouldn’t he pretend to enjoy it…
I love how Steve makes a dash for the tree line lmao. The little things you do Steve make us keep coming back for more.
...and pulls up short when he's faced with evidence that someone else had the same idea. Lmao
When I worked at Home Depot in Vermont we had a homeless encampment about the same amount of distance that you camped at. We actually would bring them some food and water. 🙂
Which one?
Those encampments are growing more than people realize
The ones here have a ready supply of labor/help at exit from parking lot!

I met Steve about a year ago while he was Stealth Camping a park like strip of land on the Turnpike. Truly an exciting guy 🏴☠️ I'm a VAN CAMPER and his seasoned ways are REAL 🥊
Yes! I want to see Steve camping in a display shed outside of Home Depot/ Lowe's/ Ace Hardware.
Good one!
The nearby streetlight is doubly helpful because anyone up in the lot will have their eyes adjusted to that light level, making it even harder to see you in the dark woods.
These are the 'bread & butter' (so to speak) type of videos that got me hooked on 'Campin with Steve'. Good to see a good ol fashioned stealthy 'hunker down'.
Yeah Steve u have changed my life as well, was going through some rough and troubled times, and was fine with it, but something in ur videos made me want to change that, and try and better my life, while being a 2x cancer survivor, that lost lower left leg when I was 14
You should start leaving calling cards at local businesses where you’ve camped saying “You’ve been Hunkered Down by Steve” 😊
🤣
"For a nominal fee, I'll refrain from doing it again. We accept Bitcoin.""
I love that idea!
Yes. Lol
That would be awesome! I live by him and would totally do it
I wouldn’t be surprised if I found Steve stealth camping in my attic
You wouldn't find him. He's stealth camping.
“Oh! Hi Steve!”
😂😂😂⚡
Lmfao
Makes my day seeing a new vid by Steve, beats most of whats on Netflix!
@C D than
Or regular TV too
Mountain Men is way better, Steve just trying to fit in with U Tube.
Mr. Steve Wallis,
I love your humility man. You are a true person. Throughout life's adversity you seem to stay poised on loving to live life. Your videos are truly inspiring. The urban stealth camping thing is a real way to experience a very unique lifestyle. For Fun? Even better. I have seen every video from your boondocking documentary to anniversary vid and everything in between. Your content is real and I love our chanel. Keep living life the way you want. You shine...
This was a reccomended video. I was not disappointed.
Also, I work at Home Depot ;)
A quarter of a million views in 48 hours... and it’s a one man Filming crew! Originality is what the audience wants!
A Hollywood studio couldn’t pull this off if they were given this video to study and replicate
2 million, 2 yrs later
Yay it's Thursday and Stealth Camping with Steve!
@@OneHunnitNoCapStannitOnBidnisz 😆 🤣
I don't know why but i love when he cooks/eats while camping. It makes me enjoy the journey more and the videos.
Well what’s he supposed to do idiot? Not eat or drink? It’s a human function. Everyone does it. Relax.
I'm sure Steve is one of the most wholesome serial campers ever being sure to stay extra stealthy for any passerbys
The fact that this guy's channel is successful somewhat restores my faith in humanity. Hes such a genuine guy who basically conveys that there are simpler ways of life than doing the rat race.
Yes, I’m already getting burned out doing the SSDD routine everyday. And my job goes to different jobsites regularly. I find myself living vicariously through the videos guys like this put up.
We still believe there's a "rat race" in 2022?
he’s making bank off these videos don’t fool yourself. he “escaped the rat race” but he’s making probably 100k a year in youtube revenue.
@@dscvered well. 100k is equal to 50k in 1990. It doesn’t go far as you think.
@@dscvered how has he, in any way, escaped the rat race?
That's almost the same hill and parking lot where Bubbles throws down the shopping carts so he can sell back to them later! Awesome vid Steve
Is it really?
I believe that was by a Nova Scotia Zellers.
DEEEEEECEEEENT
“Whoopsies”
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this lol
Jeez that MRI bag is like an endless pit! I was sitting here in amazement just watching how Steve kept pulling stuff out. What a treat
Mres are garbage
Meal Ready to Ingest?
Just a guy on a stool behind Home Depot whispering and drinking Step 2's. Great video as always!
Pretty sure there are cameras on the back - they probably just say there's another homeless guy. Harmless.
I'm imagining Friday morning the security guys are all hovering around watching videos of the night before, when one yells out "Hey, isn't this that Hunker-down guy in our parking lot"?
Maybe Steve gave the security people a head’s up??
They say "oh look its Steve he's stealthing again
Beautiful Wife, when asked about where her husband was, remarked, "well, he does sleep around quite a bit".
He is always out getting in the bush....
😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@dustinclouse6888 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is going to get caught one day....
Steve i been watching your channel for a very long time now. Thank you for all you do. I just lost my leg do to health issues. I'm very proud of you please keep making these videos. You may not see this but I hope you do . Praying for you always brother
Someone send this man a ghillie suit. Imagine the possibilities!
He will be camping in somebody's living room lol
I learned something today. Looked up ghillie suit. $70 to 250.
"Stealth camping in a median"
Totally
Steve in a ghillie suit walks into the pub ... LOL
Home Depot truck driver: "Oh look, it's Steve. I wonder if he has a spare step 2?" :-)
He's gojng to start waking up to a mountain of beer left by fans that recognized him.
"I have plenty to occupy myself with until that happens."
Sits and drinks silently.
This is my type of dude 😄
😂
Agreed
You can boil water by filling the beverage bag and placing the beverage bag carefully inside the flameless heater.
You can heat anything in a flameless heater and they are often hot enough to do two entrees or and entree and a dessert.
Fun facts that might save your life.
Thank you Steve for the perfect timing releasing this video! You've really helped me a great deal these past few weeks with me discovering your videos and how you offer me comfort and entertainment with your adventures. I'm currently spending the last night in an awful apartment (extremely noisy neighbors) and it has been really stressful living here with a lot of sleepless nights. Watching your videos before bedtime always seem to calm me down, so I appreciate it all man. Tomorrow though, I am finally moving into my new place in a calmer area. So right now I am here in the dark, in the bed, all hunkered down and ready to press play on this video. I always upvote your videos before I see them cause you deserve it pal!
Your videos have kept me sane through this challenging time! You are the man
Was a manager at Depot for 10 yrs...they could care less that you're there as long as you don't bother anybody. They almost certainly don't own the land past that fence.
That was my take on this video, too. The security cameras must have caught him going into the woods with the backpack, coming out without it and heading in the direction of the pub, going back in, and coming out in the morning with the pack. Doesn't take a genius to know he's camping there overnight.
@@kateyare4708 Security cameras are rarely being manned 24 hours a day. They usually only look at them if something happens.
but the landowners of the property might/ could have had issues with homeless in the past. there is always the risk of police raids/survelilance
exactly.. i used to do security for warehouses.. i couldn't have cared less if someone was in woods behind building..
@@Romans1.24-27 Thanks for using that phrase correctly: "couldn't care less" rather than "could care less."
Yay I was watching a old video of yours during my lunch cause the new one wasn’t up yet! Awesome timing
Steve’s getting ballsy. Pretty soon he’ll be heading to area 51 for a little desert camping.
Lol
is this the home depot in spruce grove? haha wooooow, that patch of bush between the home depot and dairy queen is TINY!!! You're a legend Steve!
Maybe he can help other "stealth campers" in the trails around Spruce Grove clean up after themselves!!
So when Steve said "the other side of that is basically the TransCanada" I guess it wasn't literal. Just as well coulda been Calgary.
I thought the same thing! I'm surprised there aren't more people in that space
I just looked on Google maps! Ha! Wow, tiny work but more spacious than behind that sign. Now Steve, do like that pommy guy and find a roundabout or offramp circle to camp in the Middle of 😎
Should of got a coffee from Star Bucks. lol
People watching out the windows across the street watching steve run into the woods 🤣🤣
As well as the camera(s) located at the rear of the Home Depot watching Steve emerge from the woods 12:28.
He should know better that to run like that, so much for a casual hike in the woods.
Shoot Home Depot has cameras all over their building someone deff seen him I use to be a security guard if one camara dosent get him the other will
Frankly, I don't see what the worry is. If it's behind the fence, it probably doesn't belong to Home Depot. ... right?
I've scrolled down a lot and not seen any reference to Steve MRE... So... Nice.
Mkay...nice reference. 🙏
Exactly why I started to read the comments
You missed mine

Steve, I really enjoyed your program -- I forgot about my troubles and felt at peace with both retail and nature.
Amen brother
Kinda surprised that loud ass MRE packaging didn't alert the entire city to where he was.
Steve in 10 years: stealth camping aboard the International Space Station.
I doubt it, there is no Dairy Queen near the Space Station.
I wonder what Steve would look like in a scuba suit?
Stealth camping on the moon
Don’t give him ideas
Killed it
As someone who use to do a lot of camping and now generally avoids it because of the discomfort it causes, these videos make me want to find my nearest woods and go to sleep.
I dont understand, you just came to the conclusion it's not worth it?
I enjoy these stealth camping videos, I have been watching them just before I go to sleep for the past couple days. Very entertaining to watch, cheers
When using old chemical heaters of dubious effectiveness, dump the packet of salt into the heater pre-water, then wait 30 mins. The salt will help make the entree hot AF.
You look much happier than in old videos. I'm happy to see it! Also you seem more relaxed in videos lately.
I was waiting to hear Steve say "Alright, let's get this onto a tray"... Nice.
laughed pretty good at this one.
🤣
Steve's smile is contagious. The truck is leaving! 😃
"I'm thirsty!" Steve proceeds to Rehydrate with Beer. Old reliable H2O is only good for heating up MRE's 😁🤣 got my hunker down fix today. Thanks Steve!
Reminds me of my teenage years going back to the woods and cracking open a few of my own step two's. Probably was the only step in mind back then.
Bubbles: "Any good shopping carts down there Steve!?" hehe
There’s good hullin in the summer

It’s like Survivorman, but behind the Home Depot... Absolutely brilliant!
He always looks around like he's wanted or escaped from prison.. love it Steve🤣🤣
Lol he looks so guilty even if he’s in the middle of nowhere,
@@justind71 He does, it's something about him, maybe his eyes and the way his heads looks like on a swivel..🤣🤣😊
Crack
Up to no good look. Or he shit his pants and you'll never know it!!
Steve goes to pub. Meanwhile, his MRE heater got hot then cooled down again LOL
i know this is a bit old, but some info about the mres!
i spent about a decade training and fighting in cold weather environments and i always found that if mres are stored for a long period of time in tight packed cold environments (like a connex for a few months) it worked wonders to kind of knead to water into the sachet inside of the flameless ration heater. seems like the chemicals get compressed into a cake and dont allow enough surface area for the water to interact with the chemicals.
This guy is hilarious. His river trip with crazy neighbor is the best. However, be advised tens of thousands are camping behind the Home Depot in Imperial Beach, CA alone. No lie.
I like to try and look up Steve's camp sites on Google Maps... Was very surprised to zoom in on this Home Depot and see "Camping with Steve" tagged in the area behind it and the Dairy Queen haha! Pretty cool. Love ya Steve mate!
Where is it?
8:41 Never seen so much Joy on Steve's face
i´d pay alot for a tshirt/hoodie with his smirking face nd the slogan " the truck is leaving" ! ! !
What a great capture..? 🔥🤠👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍🤙🏻🤙🏻
Dude I busted up laughing
I live in a camper my neighbors prob think I'm nuts
Steve is a boss! I thought I was the best in world at being homeless but dude is 🐐
"Casually out for a walk behind the Home Depot" 😄 I love these stealth missions... "I'm just a regular guy, nothing to see here"
just preparing for when i'm homeless. Thanks steve!
Same. Pretty good source of info so you won’t feel completely helpless.
Just a matter of time in this day and age.
If or when it takes place, you'll want to do a lot more scouting while staying in a treeline outside city limits so you don't draw attention.
Me this morning: "Yes, it's Thursday!"
YOUR LIFE SOUNDS EVEN MORE PATHETIC THEN MINE!
I literally just said the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
I’m an old woman and my countdown begins on Friday morning (sure makes for a long countdown) Don’t be embarrassed if your Thursdays are the special day!
Same here...love Thursdays
It’s Fridayyyyyy 😎😎
Keep going Steve! Love you brother, and absolutely love your stealth camping ideas!
Right on man! Your channel speaks to the inner child in me that was always wanting to camp in the most obvious places yet still be “wild” 😂 you the man!
Ayo Steve! Trick to those flameless ration heaters is to bend and flex that paper part inside the plastic, sort of fold it back and forth a bunch of different ways and crap. Also, once you got the water and the stuff in the bag, give it two good folds at the top and give it a shake or two. Should activate it and get it hot!
He ain’t read your comment lol

It’s hard to get an idea so to how urban Steve is here. That small patch of woodland is truly nestled in amongst one huge urban sprawl with literally every popular retail chain within a few blocks and in true Steve fashion, a Canadian Tire only a block away. Honestly Steve, fair play to you man!
The fact you got in there without being seen is one thing but going out for walks and food is another. Hats off to you buddy, great entertainment 👍
