I have no idea how you do it Maxim!! I was cold watching you do the polar dip even though I was sitting in my living room beside my fire wrapped up in a blanket with my puppy on my lap!!!
Haha yeah it's a constant battle between us... But I let her get away with it most times.... :) Thanks for the encouragement and for stopping by an leaving a comment - it is very much appreciated. All the best!
It’s 0130 central time in Texas and I’m awake to let my dogs out to potty. Instead of going back to bed I turned on the television and immediately found another video to watch…🤷♀️. I have a problem…addicted to their videos 🤷♀️😊
Real life experience will never be replaced by the superficial, but its as close as I can get to these places, and thats good enough for me (nonetheless)😌 thank you 🙏💝🌺
Hola Maxim,como me gustan estos videos...todo lleno de maravillosos paisajes y,como no,lleno de grandes corazones que aman la naturaleza👏👏👏👏👏 Maxim,geacias por compartir estas grandísimas imagenes!!! Tienes mucha suerte de disfrutar de las montañas.Sólo decirte que sigas siempre igual,no cambies tu manera de vivir🥰🥰🥰 Saludos desde España🇪🇦🇪🇦
I love that I just got to see 3 different perspectives of the same trip in an hour! As a content creator, not only is it enjoyable but I find it very educational! Great video, really enjoyed this one. Thank you for sharing.
There's the beauty of the microscopic landscape. You've also been inserted into the guitar in the previous video, right? A performance that goes well with the season. It was a great idea Keep going. :)
Great spot to camp out nice views the polar dip is something I could not bring myself to doing sure was fun to watch lol as were the rapid runs , How dare your wife eat all the smarties out of your trail mix, but can't blame her id have done the same lol. always a joy to watch your adventure,s looked like a lot of fun
Hi Sue! Glad you enjoyed it. The polar dip isn't quite as bad as it looks - if you can keep yourself calm, it's not so bad to get in and out. And yes my wife is a smartie stealing criminal but at least she gave me a heads up. Cheers!
Great adventure, Max, and great video !! Polar plunges are highly underrated !! A bunch of us go in every year on Jan. 01 here in a local creek, likely not as cold as yours, though !!
I think once you hit a certain threshold it barely matters how much colder - it just feels cold PERIOD haha. Jan first polar plunge is a great tradition! I might take that as inspiration in the future!
Love your video's Max...just finished binge watching them all ...keep them coming for sure This series was really good and I love how different you all do video's it is great...i love them all
There is a Canadian brand called smarties - which is very similar to plain m&ms - but sometimes I just call everything smarties - even if it's actually m&ms :D cheers!
I found you through Xander, and I have to say, I'm enjoying your slightly different take on things. Your shots and techniques are interesting, with plenty of lovely scenes. Thanks for the great video!
She can't help herself - I almost feel sorry for her chocolate desperation. Also, she saw you comment and said you name sounds like a ballerina name :) Thanks for watching, Svetlana!
The editing on this one was taken up a notch -- thanks for all the effort, Maxim (and Xander, Marty). The amount of gear being tested on a single night was awesome. Did anything surprise you with its quality, good or bad?
Another great trip, must have been nice if you can sleep in until 10:00. I would do that ice water dip in a dry suit but no way in my shorts. You guys are tough indeed. 🙂
The sleep was great and well needed I think because the early morning I had getting to the put in the previous day. I thought the swim would be worse than it was and my only regret not staying in a bit longer. It was very invigorating and I was just getting into a breathing rhythm. Next time longer 🙂
Nice one! So Canadian Smarties are like M&Ms? Ours (spelled the same way) are these weird, chalky, fruity things - would NOT recommend in general, let alone in a trail mix! But since yours are chocolate, I don’t blame your wife for stealing them! 😆
Max awesome trip man. You and Xan remind me of my younger brother and I. We were always in the wood and on the bayou. Also camping with him was awesome. Hope you had a great trip because I had fun going alone with y’all. You videos are the best man
It comes and goes in December - we had a couple of warmer days that melted it away. Soon the snow will be here to stay and accumulate. Thanks for watching, Filip! Cheers
I enjoyed the cold dip much more than I thought I would. Really made me want to do it again funny enough... I will need to be more sneaky in the future 🙂
lovely trip and an even better video for us. the shots are on point, the editing as well. yeah the pipe for the stove was really a dissappointment... guess its better to buy a slightly bigger stove and get actual usable pipes. greetings and keep up the great work mate oh and ban the smarties thief :D
The trifecta is complete lol Great perspective. How do you think your canoe handled/performed compared to the other stubby boats? It looks like you did well. You didn’t fall out or end up perched on a boulder 😂
I have really loved how my canoes performed. Compared to Xander and Martys, I think it's less maneuverable but great for punching through holes. Thanks for watching, Alan! Hope alls been well with you! 🛶✌️
Watched both yours and your brothers videos. Both great stuff. Something that's been in the back of my mind is the style of canoes you and all the people you paddle with choose. Like your boat seems to be a little more white water friendly, bit more rocker, volume. More than the others who show up regularly in your videos.. Xander in a purpose designed white water boat this trip. How intentional are you guys in your choices? Really selective, random, whatever was the best deal, favorite color, favorite brand, anything that floats? Just curious. When my friends and I were all skiing a lot sort of an unspoken competition sprung up on who skied the longest boards. This was before shaped skis. Anything like that with canoes? Yeah I'm an old dog...
Thanks! Yes my canoe has quite a bit of rocker to it you are right and is designed as expedition white water canoe. It turns on a dime but consequently doesn't track very well if you let it glide without steering. I definitely bought this canoe on purpose because I wanted a canoe that can handle significant white water on serious trips for two people. Xander just recently bought that single seat playboat and is figuring it out it can hardly load more than a weekends worth of gear and without airbags. Its funny how basic shapes like a canoe with a rocker or not will probably not change in a 1000 years of canoe design. Certain Basic shapes will always make certain performance compromises.
I have no idea how you do it Maxim!! I was cold watching you do the polar dip even though I was sitting in my living room beside my fire wrapped up in a blanket with my puppy on my lap!!!
Can't think too much as you get in haha
A Xander video AND a max video in one night? Made my week🙏🏽
Hope you like this one. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment ✌️ All the best!
Well said!!
And Marty! Haha he's awesome too.
Awesome! 😊😊😊😊
Thanks, Michael!
The X men and a buddy getting their polar bear on. Oh goodie! 🐻❄️🐻❄️🐻❄️
It was a pretty nice dip! 🙂
3 Bros, rapids, and polar dips…Great way to end the season🛶 Really enjoyed your prospective Max🍻
Yeah it felt like a very transitional trip from fall to winter. Thanks! :)
That bit about the smarties and your wife was comical and adorable both lol. Wonderfully edited video overall 👌🏻 !
Haha yeah it's a constant battle between us... But I let her get away with it most times.... :) Thanks for the encouragement and for stopping by an leaving a comment - it is very much appreciated. All the best!
The collaborations are always fun to watch and learn from...great job Maxim. Thanks for all the great content and camera work.
Thank you! I've been trying some new things in editing - hoping it helps capture the right mood and focus. :) Cheers! 🌿

Thank you! Will do! 🛌🌲
A fun video! Thanks Max.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching 🙂
Everything looks so wet 😳😲
It wasn't too bad!
Very brave that time of year THX for the video. CHEERS!!!
This wasn't too bad actually - the dry suit and wood stove certainly helped with comfort. Thanks for watching, Ian! ❄️
Another brilliant video Max, keep them coming! Subscriptions growing as well, happy for you man!
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment ✌️
Love your video's Max...just finished binge watching them all ...keep them coming for sure This series was really good and I love how different you all do video's it is great...i love them all
Thank you, Kristin. Next video is in the works :)
enjoyed the views!...I can see the use of hot tent and stove...but i'll skip the cold water dip!
It makes the hot tent so cozy though... 🥶🪵🔥
Ha! Just finished watching Xander’s! Now onto your version
Hope you enjoyed it, Adam 🙂 Thanks for watching!
Awesome..

Cheers from Canada! 🇨🇦🇲🇾
In the USA, we call those M&M's. Smarty's are those small tart candies. LOL
There is a Canadian brand called smarties - which is very similar to plain m&ms - but sometimes I just call everything smarties - even if it's actually m&ms :D cheers!
What a great trip. That polar dip would have been great and those rapid runs looked like so much fun.
Nate
It was awesome! 🦦
Lovely video as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
looked like a fun little adventure
Hey Darrell! How have you been? Yeah it was a fun little trip. Thanks for stopping by

I really appreciate that Vince!
5:48 laughing out loud lol! I do all the same to my husband 😄😄😈
She can't help herself - I almost feel sorry for her chocolate desperation. Also, she saw you comment and said you name sounds like a ballerina name :) Thanks for watching, Svetlana!
Love that tent… smarties in trail mix, really??? I’ll give it a try!
Oh yeah the chocolate is the best part!
...cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
Thanks! 🌲🙂

Thanks, man! Well... The tent was awesome - it was my first time using it.
Enjoyed your version very much but they were all good.
Thanks Ken, really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!

Healing and refreshing-- that's what yalls videos are! Appreciate the time and effort made sharing yalls outdoor experiences!
Thanks JB! Always nice to see your comments 🙂
Great video of 3wild and crazy guys… going for a dip in December?… you’re the best!
Honestly it was probably the best part
Nice one! So Canadian Smarties are like M&Ms? Ours (spelled the same way) are these weird, chalky, fruity things - would NOT recommend in general, let alone in a trail mix! But since yours are chocolate, I don’t blame your wife for stealing them! 😆
Yes Canadian smarties are basically like M & Ms we have M& Ms here too. Yes she steals them brazenly and then acts cute about it.
As always thanks for watching!
Just pure nice………..
Thanks, Jim! 🌿
Max awesome trip man. You and Xan remind me of my younger brother and I. We were always in the wood and on the bayou. Also camping with him was awesome. Hope you had a great trip because I had fun going alone with y’all. You videos are the best man
Thanks a ton Wendel! Your from down south I reckon?
@@maximbudnick yes sir I am
Another great clip Max... 👍 Should it be more snow on the ground? Is middle of Dec...
It comes and goes in December - we had a couple of warmer days that melted it away. Soon the snow will be here to stay and accumulate. Thanks for watching, Filip! Cheers
Love it man! You look so happy! Thanks again for your outlook on things and inspiring me to getting out more! Wish I had more to do in Tennessee 😂
Really happy to help get you outdoors! keep those videos coming Beau!
Its raining! Asta en Canadá 🇨🇦 está lloviendo ahorita! 🙏💝🌺😃😲😳
🌧
Ha, ha, ha. Very funny.
What's funny? About the smarties thief?
@@maximbudnick Well, at least I get to see you guys butt naked. Bwa, ha, ha.😂
Any chance you will do more of a sit down video and review all the gear you’ve used? Things to look out for or necessities for certain trips?
It's not my primary interest but I'd be open to it - specially if it were something to help people get into camping
@@maximbudnick it would definitely help me! Considering no one I know camps. Thanks for your time. I binged all you videos haha
Oh man..this video was so good that it felt short 😔
Thank you for all your kind comments, Melida! 🙂
How was that cold “dip”? I hope you can find a secret place to stash your smarties 🙃
Thanks for sharing!!
I enjoyed the cold dip much more than I thought I would. Really made me want to do it again funny enough... I will need to be more sneaky in the future 🙂
Nice trip! Great video!! Only your feet were cold? 😊
Well... Only my feet were numb - but everything was cold haha
lovely trip and an even better video for us. the shots are on point, the editing as well. yeah the pipe for the stove was really a dissappointment... guess its better to buy a slightly bigger stove and get actual usable pipes. greetings and keep up the great work mate

Hey Nachtmahr. How have you been? Haha yeah it seems she just can't resist the chocolate when she's at home with no other treats.
