- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ย. 2024
- I hike through stunning NZ bush and camp overnight in an epic location. The Ballroom Overhang is a giant limestone formation in Paparoa National Park. There is 8 river crossings to reach the overhang which is along the Fox River.

Dude you know how to work on an great intro. Loved the video as usual 🔥
Thanks mate!
People seemed to like the intro so I'll have to start playing around with more of them.
Cheers
loving your videos, I need to get out more doing stuff like this
Go for it bro! Even if it's just for an hour. It's a great way to unwind and forget everything else that is going on in life.
Thanks for watching.
Cheers
Very cool.Liked the intro.
Cheers for the feedback Troy. I'll try and incorporate more intros into my videos, it was fun to film and edit.
Cheers
Your opening video footage Zeb was pure talent. Awesome adventure
Thanks very much Dave. I enjoyed making that little intro.
It was an awesome adventure. The Ballroom is a stunning place.
Cheers
What a beautiful place! The excitement in your face said much, you really enjoy nature. The rivers are so clear and beautiful. Great video❤️❤️
It's an amazing area I'm looking forward to another trip there someday.
Next level videography!! Slow mo adds so much atmosphere 😍
What a dope spot, just stunning! What was your favorite thing about it?
🌲🌲🌲💚🌲🌲🌲
She's back! Awesome to hear from you.
Glad you liked the slow mo. It was fun to play around with.
My favourite thing about that spot was that there was no one else there 😉😁.
Nah it was just a completely different location than what I am used to and looked awesome.
Cheers
Awesome man. Never heard of this spot. Agree on the coffee oats, the result of not being bothered to cook up twice haha
It's a really cool place. Worth checking out if you are ever in that area. Saves me time and dishes!
Cheers bro
Good Video ,Mate From Scotland
Cheers Thomas.
Thank you for the support.
Scotland would be a cool place to visit someday.
Very cool my friend 🤠
Thanks Herb!
Choice spot man. That is a huge overhang. wonder how it got its name
Thanks Corey. I was thinking about the name as well, my guess is drunk hikers having a dance 🤣
I did a google search on the origins of its meaning but came up with zilch. All I got was how it was formed🤔🤷♀️..... maybe the locals would know? But geez what a beast of a place 👌 I think we should name you "Whistler".... cos you whistle everytime you see something stunning 🤣
travel well & safely
Will do!
Thanks for watching
One thing I always look forward to is seeing what food you cook on each trip, you seem to enjoy your food
Haha cheers bro. Trying to get better at cooking but on hiking trips it's easier to go for simple stuff.
Thanks
@@BackcountryKiwi ever thought about taking foil packet meals already made up with you and just throwing them in the coals?
@@catlikepizzagaming8280 I've done tin foil packet meals before, but I've always prepped the food at camp.
Definitely something I will consider.
Cheers
Also youre intro was well done. Love the out of focus shots and the slowed down stuff
It was fun to put together. Glad you like it.
Cheers bro
Nice. I used to live in New Zealand. I live in Wisconsin now. Seems like a nice spot to camp
Thanks John. It was an amazing location.
Cheers for the comment
I loved the intro. Thought the coffee on the oats was a great idea too. I prefer a cup of tea on mine.
Glad you liked it. Yeah it's just more practical when I'm hiking.
Cheers
It’s really beautiful place. Nice bro
It sure is! I will definitely be going back at some point!
Cheers

Awesome video again with some next level filming to boot. Fantastic location, I could see you really enjoyed it mate. I like putting all my sacks into the sleeping bag sack too, handy finding a fire pit and a couple of logs to sit on, loved the river crossings, good stuff again👍
Hey Chris. Thanks for watching mate. It really was an awesome location. The fire pit and logs were nice, beats sitting on the ground!

Cheers
@@BackcountryKiwi yea, sorry, I already following you, heading out for a fish now, 🐟
Awesome.
Enjoy
A stand out
This trip was awesome.
Thank you for the support.
Cheers
Intro was cool, i like the music with it. Very awesome area. Nice weather, great scenery. Was that stinging nettle after the kawa kawa shot? Were there any crawlies there? That would have made a good addition to your dinner. Great video, epic views. Awesome spot. Just a Question about your trekker knife. Is that a tops? And what model? Keep the great content coming. Can't wait for the next installment.😊👍👏👏👏 oh, is ok to ask your name? Thanks, jas frm pahiatua.🙂
Thanks for the feedback Jason. Yes the stinging nettle was after the kawakawa. What kind of crawlies are you talking about?
My tracker knife is a custom blade made by Caleb Cox on the bcusa forum.
My name is Zeb.
Cheers
Fresh water crayfish. I don't know of any other crawlies.lol.
Its a awesome knife. Feather great. Loving your channel.👍
Except for creepy crawlies.
@@jasonedwardledburynewzeala9897 oh haha right I got ya now. I did keep an eye out for crayfish and other fish but unfortunately I didn't see any.
Thanks mate.
Mean bro
Cheers mate. It's an awesome area
I really want to do this but damn isnt it scary being out there alone? Great video btw!
I love it. Not for everyone and the first few times are definitely the hardest but you get more comfortable the more you get out.
Cheers
Where do you find these places to camp?🧐😮that's some outstanding kiwi bush and camera work man 🤙
Thanks Tony! This was recommended to me by another hiker when I was doing my 4 day hike in Richmond.
Normally I just spend lots of time looking at maps and DOC'S website or talk to locals.
Cheers
Would it be cheating if y'all boggied on up to camp with minimum vid captured then have more time to set up and did all the vid that takes all the time to do on way out
Cut it all back together
Nice vlog reminds me of mate's an mine way way way back camp's no matter how shyt the weather 👍🖖👣👣😆
Cheers mate. Yeah I could have done that, but it would have taken away from it I feel. I made sure to start hiking with heaps of time so that I could film and stop and take my time.
Thanks it was a great camp, looking forward to more in the future.
Great video bro
Thanks man!
