Thanks so much for watching everyone. I really appreciate all the great comments 😀 inspires me to keep making them. Thanks.
Simply gorgeous, shots are masterfully executed! What a beautiful place, what a beautiful cinematic experience! 👏👏
Thanks I really appreciate the encouragement
Such a great hike. Really unique rocks and vegetation not to mention the random duck! Thanks for sharing this one Kate, I hope you’re feeling better so sorry to hear about the passing of your Nan it’s really sad when they go and I can relate to that feeling of it being like a light or magic gone from your days. Take care.
Thanks so much Petra I really appreciate it ❤️
Another spectacular spot. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures.
Thanks so much for watching and the lovely comment. I appreciate it. Happy hiking
Really enjoyed this one Kate, thanks for taking us along and showing us another beautiful part of the country
thanks mate - love the support and brains trust. cheers
Absolutely stunning! Another cracking video, and good little extra clip of the fish swimming beside the goose, cheers!
How weird was that fish. Erin saw it at the time but I didn’t thanks mate
Thanks Kate. Lovely river walk and video. It looked slow, hard going in places but also relaxing and restorative walking and camping with a mate on beautiful country.
Thanks mate. Yes it was hard but good. Thanks for the support. I really appreciate it
Wow, what a beautiful spot! Thanks for the video, early enjoyed it.
Thanks Angelica. Appreciate it. Hope you are well
Epic hike! This morning ambiance with the mist 🙏😇 Precious moments.
Thanks for sharing. Cheers
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
Another great video! Love me a wild river too - that sunset and sunrise were spectacular!
Thanks so much for watching and the lovely comment. I hope you are doing well. Happy hiking
@@KateGrarock Hi Kate - after new job/covid, I'm starting to get back into looking after myself. I'm not doing much hiking, but I am walking at lunchtimes to get the legs moving again! When the heat dies down, I'm hoping I'll be fit enough to get back out there, without feeling like I'm going to die 😀
Sounds like a lot Ingrid hope you are doing ok. And hope you are out there hiking soon.
Good video. Can’t go wrong with stainless Mora Pro for about $20. File the spine to create 90 degree edge and you have yourself a great quality and lightweight bush craft/backpacking knife. Any ferro rod should work. I took one off of one of those cheap magnesium strikers for backpacking. Entire set up is about $25. Cheers
Nice thanks mate. Love good cheap options
Was a beautiful place well worth future exploring thanks for taking me along.
Thanks for watching John
I'm glad you enjoyed those Raddix meals more than me, Kate. I thought they tasted like spiced lawn clippings! Great to see you out and about again.
Haha sorry to hear that mate. You should checkout a new vid I made where I get 4 friends to taste test different meals. Some shockers in there. But also some delicious ones. Happy hiking
RIP Nanna Grarock 💜💜💜. What a gorgeous place and adventure. Looking forward to more of these.
Thanks mate. Hopefully many more to come.
Nice one Kate . Ya just gotta get out there sometimes eh . Glad you found the time
Yes indeed! Happy Hiking to you
very nice ,well filmed documentary with beautiful scenery . Peaceful, calm and makes me pack and go for a trip too. Thank you ladies.
So cool, thanks for watching
Kate Hikes! Keeping active is good 😎
Cheers mate.
Hiking with Dr Rock is a good one.
Haha so fun to be sharing the trail with a few friends.
@@KateGrarock does your spouse join you or is bushwalking/hiking not her thing?
Great video Kate. Thank you for sharing. What a beautiful area!! It looks like you and Erin had a lovely stay. Sorry about your grandmother. How precious that you had her in your life. She must've been super proud of you 😊
Thanks yeah such a special spot. Thanks for the kind words.
Beautiful film. Do you do all your editing yourself? If so, it’s getting better and better when compared to your earlier (also enjoyable) work. Thanks for sharing your hikes.
Thanks mate. Yes I do. Lovely that you notice. I’ve been enjoying the learning process. Wish I had more time to dedicate to it but slowly slowing.
What a beautiful river and a great place to explore Kate - looking forward to seeing more! Sorry about your grandmother - she would love that you got back into nature to heal and reflect on how special she was to you.
Thanks mate. Yes. Absolutely nothing better that a bit of time outdoors and a good giggle in a river. Happy hiking to you.
Beautiful hike Kate! I’ve missed you hiking too. Sorry to hear about your Nan.
Thanks mate. Appreciate it. Hope you are well. I’m editing another river adventure full of giggles and fun.
So good to see you out again! Your editing is next level on this trip too... very schmick mate!
Condolences for the passing of your Nanna too... I hope you find a little bit of magic popping up in unexpected places from now on, just to remind you that shes always keeping an eye out for you.💙
Thanks so much Amy. How are you? Any big adventures plans in 2024? Hope so. Happy hiking and paddling
@@KateGrarock there's always some adventure in the wings... just haven't decided where it'll be this year, but it will be a paddle because I've got a shiny new Swift canoe heading my way right now 😁
@@AmyOutdoorsso exciting. Hope it’s a cracker
A great adventure. Amazing what you can come across if you go just that bit further. I have a Morakniv Garberg stainless with Survival Kit (comes with a sheath, stone sharpener & fire steel). A good package & a good full tang knife.
Thanks mate. Yeah I think I need to get a morakniv thanks for the recommendation
The extra 150 metres was definitely worth it. Fantastic spot. Sorry to hear about your Nanna. Expected or not, there is always a hole left. The other side of the river always looks easier - there has to be a proverb in that!
Thanks mate. I really appreciate it. Yeah absolutely must be a proverb. Happy hiking.
Wow so nice !!! thanks for sharing
Cheers, it’s a real gem out there.
Sorry for your loss. Nan sounds like a special woman.
Thanks Helen. Yes she was amazing. Thanks for the kind words.
Canoe down the mongarlowe River
Love the look of that river.
Hey Kate! What a magic spot. Would be great to raft down. Sorry to hear about your Nanna. xo
thanks Sam. Yes i have to dust out the raft. Will be amazing. editing another tip now we did a bit further downstream. thanks
Looks like gold country
Wish I could get my hands on some 😀
Sorry about your grandmother, Kate.
If that was me wading across a river, I would definitely go A over T and be sleeping in wet gear for the night! 🤣
Beautiful spot (despite there being no eels). 👍
Haha thanks mate. Nothing like nature to make everything feel a little better.
auriferous gold country walking past lots of gold Kate
Yes so much gold. I used to try to have a little pan but realised I lacked the skill and time.
I'm sorry for you lost your grandma
Thank you
Kate, could you PLEASE put the item - river and where you hiked from/to in the description. It makes a MUCH bigger connection with the viewer and lets us know what we are watching. It's gotta help grow the channel much more.
Hey mate I tend not to get specific these days as you never know who you may be sending down a crazy track (eg experience of the person watching) Happy to have conversations via private message. I know this may impact views etc but I think it’s the price I have to live with. I love encouraging people to get outdoors but I’d never want to send the wrong person into an area they don’t have the skills or experience to deal with that location safely. For that reason I only openly name formal trails. Not the off track stuff. Cheers.
Agree with you Kate. Also culturally respectful to keep these details out of online content. Lovely just know you’re on Yuin country🙂
So sorry to hear about your Nan. She must have been a very special person. I could sense your loss❤️
It's also easy for sensitive off track places to be loved to death if details are shared too freely.
