"instant ramen and bacon, the recipe for immortality"- Classic
Greg Whittle Yeah classic like Whittle his McWood too keep warm
never truer words have been spoken
was already kinda digging the content, this pushed me over the edge. subscribed and will donate. I think what your doing is awesome and I'm hella jelly.
Le cochon!!! C'est bon!!!
the cooking parts are my absolute favourite, or basically anything when you film inside the van it looks so comfy.
I would suffocate in there
Looks really cramped
@@bjm275 it actually looks super comfy, I live in a cramp college dorm so I wouldn't know the luxury.
That's my favorite part too!
The elk in the beginning was all like “this is what it is now”
DADDYR0UNDR0UND it’s use to it
Probably thinking "This is nice and warm"
It's what it is. Tell him that
What do you guys recommend if SHTF in the cites in MN. We're f'd right. I have two months supply of food I paid almost $200 for and Sawyer straws. My buggout bag is very weak I don't have one. Where do I go? Oklahoma seems boring and I like that
@Pinochet's Helicopter That's another state I'm considering. Thankfully I'm almost free of obligations here in the TC and can plan. I don't know what your thoughts on the NWO "conspiracy theory" agenda 21/30 and FEMA camps are but i've got a bad feeling on what's going on. Cities are bad regardless as most here probably know
I've watched dozens of your videos since discovering you a few weeks ago and your drone footage is one of my favorite things, that sets you apart, in my opinion. And this is the episode that your drone skills were ignited! 👏🙂
Thank you! The drone is a game changer.
Drone footage and editing skills on absolute point sir.
actually impressive. Wonderful shots
But how is he driving the car and the drone .... ? Maybe he got another person with him 🤔
Lazaro Martinez 😆 I literally just messaged that
@@lazaromartinez4780 many new high end drones can track or follow thats exactly what it is. This guy is as genuine as they come.
Most DJI Drones have active track...the Drone in the video is dji mavic air.
HE IS ALIVE LADS! WE SLEEP SAFE TONIGHT!
I like how we are a small community who subscribed to someone to check up on him every now and then 😂😂😂😂
Yaaaaass!!!!
What keeps him alive? THE BACON!......
Thank Goodness lol
What are we going to do when he doesn't ever upload again? #CheckInForest
As an American Southerner I've never had to put chains on my car, so when you did that I said out loud "So that's how you do that."
Aunty Proton literally exact same story as me lol
Me too
I didn’t even notice the drone footage. Looked so good and fitted in so naturally. Awesome stuff man thank you
Watching these videos makes me want to quit my job, sell my car, buy a van and go live in the wild like this guy 😆
Mee too! Or at least, get one of those tiny homes on wheels.
If I did it there'd be a news article "incompetent camper dies in freak accident" within the first week
At least in a van down by the river.
He works though.
@@jd_99 Yeah, I'm thinking that would be my exact fate. Love those who can are willing to share their adventures with those who lack the ability.
Anyone else think Foresty should have his own tv show.
That opening scene was absolutely gorgeous. Edit: spoke too soon. ALL of the landscape and drone scenes were unbelievable!
You put a lot of effort into your videos and it really shows man, amazing work.
Thank you 👍
Is there a nicer, more entertaining guy on the internet? I don't think so. Love these videos!
Steve Wallis is right up there too!
The most canadian, Canadian I've ever seen.
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦😄😄😄😄🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Best done in Canada too! I'm envious here America where there's a war on poor people.
@@maddumass That war is raging in Canada as well don't kid yourself. The idea is to make the poor worse off and push the middle class into the same boat.
@@feetfats1 whoa! That's scary! Most people are 1 paycheck away from disaster. How is this possible?
@@maddumass mismanagement of money for one thing.
When you write an autobiography I can’t wait to read it. Even the quick scenes of you playing what appears like old school video pc games are interesting.
After watching this I’m thinking about leaving the house and going for a walk tomorrow
It's good to see Forest survived the cold since the last video. Bacon really must be good for us 😀
@Micheal Rows christ! awful xD
"7. Prepare defibrillator" 😄😄
It's been a good year for drones. I've seen one lost up a tree. One lost off a cliff, and one lost in the ocean. Be carful with that thing - they don't always come back.
The fossils and the drone footage were awesome.
"Soccer mom minivan to the extreme." Now that is deep, man.
Keep on truckin buddy! I am in edmonton and i have a powered spot for you anytime!
Those shots of the mountain were just incredible. SOOOO beautiful
I try to follow a strict bacon diet myself . Found this channel last week . Great one liners all through the program .
One of my favourite van bloggers , I have the up most respect for how you survive in harshest of climates , I've lived in a van full-time for several years but I don't think I could do -25 so cudos to you.........keep it real and keep the videos coming great work
wow... drone footage while driving and shit. this is epic
Deus Ex, great choice! Love the videos, the drone footage was really impressive. Your independence is inspiring!
You really have an eye for capturing the beauty of nature 👌🏻
Best Christmas present of my week is seeing you Foresty ...Merry Christmas and all the best in 2020 !
You do more offroad with that soccer mom van that most people with their fancy jeeps.
Rude Boy Flav Jeep owner here. I concur. 😁
Seriously. I'm in Phoenix, and the Jeeps I see here never see any off-road action but Costco and Kroger action instead. What a waste.
kirk1968 same in Miami.
I love the inside the van videos..it’s like your there with him...I enjoy those more than the hiking and cycling ones ...I did a tour Of Scotland in a van...
Love Canadian winter countryside with foresty forest 😍 ❤
The drone footage is making your channel even more epic! Production quality is sic bro! Happy New Year Foresty 🥳 🚵🏻
Koa Tiburone Not a fan of drones or drone footage. I get what people like about it and he does a good job at everything.
6:39 was an absolute gorgeous shot.
Amazing amazing scenery. It’s like we travel with you
This dude has a great taste in videogames
he knows how to play it to! did you see that headshot?
Social Relativity just get them on GOG
The return of the legendary van dweller!
Beautiful... I love the footage from the drone!
Foresty…You don’t have to turn yourself inside out for your audience. We couch-potatoes have been enjoying your van life videos just the way you’ve been making them. I’m very impressed with the range of your abilities, skills, and assorted knowledge.
Your solo scrambles scare the crap out of me! You must be exhausted dragging those HUGE BALLS to the summit;)
The drone is great man, shows how alone you really are out there. Great videos man.
as always, one of the dopest vanlife channels around! love the new drone shots. 7:07 *wintertime perfection*
I still love these old videos of FF w/ his "soccer mom" mini van. Thank you FF
Great video's you have Foresty Forest! While I have never driven a motor vehicle, I have lived on the road for 43 years. I began by hitchhikng from June 77 to June 82, then I started bikepacking, back when it was called bike touring. I too now ride a fat bike, a Raliegh Pardner. I have been all over the USA on a bicycle. I used to work 4 months a year in summer then bicycle toured from Sept-May. I was a cook and worked in resort areas, like Jackson WY, and many national parks. I retired two winters ago in January 2018. I will be 64 in 2 weeks. I have wintered in Tucson AZ where to me its like summer in winter. In December during the day it was down to 50 degrees for the last two weeks of 2019. Now here in early January 2020 its already been close to 70 again yesterday. Todays high is 73. I have made my winter home here since 1983 almost every winter. In March I am bikepacking to New Mexico, then northern AZ, UT,CO,WY, ID, WA, OR,CA,NV then back to Utah till late fall, then back down here for another winter. I live now on Social Security making less than $1000 a month, but when bikepacking only live on about $300 a month. In winter here I rent a room for $300 (this winter) a month. I spend my days cycling about 30-40 miles a day to stay in shape for when I leave in two months. I started traveling for adventure when I was 21 in 1977 and now at almost 64 amd still at it. When asked where I am from I say North America and have even bikepacked across Alaska. Live to ride, Ride to Live! GCP
Probably your best video so far. Absolutely loving the content!
Good to see ye're still cutting aboot. Happy holidays & cheers fae the Scottish Highlands. 👍🍻
As I’m guessing someone here already mentioned, the drone certainly takes your shots to a new level. Despite the horrible pun, I do mean that sincerely: these shots are well made and well placed.
We came to Ontario for Christmas, my wife and 3 kids in a pacifica. We stopped in Sparwood for some sleep must have missed you.
I might add we are heading back to BC on the first. Drop me a message Id love to see your set up in person.
WOW.. Love the footage from the drone! And your editing skills are great.
Great use of the drone man! Lovely shots
You need to get a coffee press. Canadian Tire has one that is like a travel mug. No more pouring through filters. I love mine.
Great episode. You are a madman. One tip. Crack eggs on a flat surface they break in half almost every time and won’t drip down the sides onto your stove. Keep it up!
Stay warm and keep the fatbike rolling!! I am gonna do some fat biking tomorrow and film a video for my channel too!😜
I will check it out!
Beautiful senery, it's amazing adventures.
You are awesome! I feel cramped in my promoter 3500! Nice touch going to the stream and getting one cup of water.
U truly r living the life brother! Ever since I was a child I've wanted to travel the USA , Canada, and South America living outta a van. I ENVY U
He's alive thank God
Yes thankfully!
God is great but I'm gonna give my thanks to the diesel heater
A m e n
Onya Jesus, hope you had a nice birthday!
Jesus isnt real
Love this guy, HOPE he’s doing well🙏Canada is NO JOKE in the winter🥶🥶he’s got the right idea. Saving all kinds of $$$👍👍👍
Not all of canada is this cold.
Nick powpow yeah it is. Name a location in Canada over 50F right now...
@@LeeBro999no I'm saying not all of canada has freezing weather like in the location of this video.
Vancouver is at 47 (f) right now.
Windsor, ontario will be a high of 51.2 (f) Today.
Need More? You're not even from Canada so how can you be so sure about everything regarding Canada. Ignorance is a bliss
Most of Canada isn't that cold. Where I live (Atlantic Canada) is definitely quite cold. Weird thing is that this year, thanks to global warming, it's actually been a warm winter, with barely any snow. From what I hear, it's been snowing a lot earlier out west this year.
@@Ana.Forlin global warming is a myth.. Canada is always been bipolar and unpredictable every winter. One year is mild winter, next year is polar vortex every day.
Nothing to do with Global warming hoax.
That drone shot above in the forest was absolutely beautiful & serene. Reminded me of Superman's Fortress of Solitude.
Great adventure and thanks for taking us along. You have adopted VAN life pretty quickly.
That's got to be the most Canadian breakfast ever...egg, cheese, tomato, bacon, and ketchup on an English muffin, cooked in a van in winter in the Northwest Territories. Maybe you should have had the Tragically Hip playing in the background to complete the picture!
Looks like he moved south for winter, he was on Sparwood BC (the giant truck from the shot of him cooking bacon outside)
Thanks! Have you considered posting amazon affiliate links to products in your videos? I’d love to see an Amazon link to that drone. And the cooktop. And the new power converter. And everything!
You’re living the life I so badly want. I’m working toward it this year so hopefully by the fall I’ll be living in a van! (Strange to say, but I can’t wait!)
Beats a park bench hey?😆
Had me going about the bacon. I should get the satire by now. Would have been my last hike after seeing that paw print.
I get coyotes in my backyard, sometimes there only 20 ft or less from my backdoor. Right now, I can usually hear a pack of them howling all night maybe 2 or 3 times a week. Sometimes, it's truly scary when a pack of them are in your backyard. I usually just grab something from my fridge like an apple and throw it at them, then turn on my porch light. After that, there liickity split gone.
Thanks for sharing 😎
Foresty McForest! (That's a nickname my friend and I came up with out of endearment; let me know if you dislike and we will stop using the nickname). Just another note to say your vids are awesome on every level--i.e. production, personality and the sense of adventure) I asked a few questions a while back that weren't addressed and that's cool. Just wondering if you'd be into setting up a live q@a with your fans and viewers. You live a fascinating lifestyle, and I'm sure people have lots of questions. All best, buddy, and keep safe.
MG Gailitis I would also love a Q&A with Foresty McForest😁
I'm sure we will get something like that soon! He is such a good dude i know he will do that for his fans
Lol he liked ur comment but never responded. Would be nice to see this man answer some of our questions for real
@@WaldoGotchubent Agreed. I love the guy, but the radio silence is a bit odd.
Even if the gig is up --I'd still tune in.
Drone footage looked great . !! Only Lohan Georgeiv can rival those shots. Keep'em coming
That's some majestic scenery, the drone was a great addition. Awesome videos as always
Keep the solar ! You need that . I thought you were in Canmore ! Nice town . I will have 2 panels would like to get 1 more . That’s a wolf take care.
The drone tech is fantastic, my brother-in-law just bought one too and range and quality of photo crazy! Ease up on the bacon there tiger!
Wow, excellent drone footage! That Mavic must have a great range,some of those shots are so high and far away from you, it's impressive.
OMG... What an awesome life.... Like the drone footage!
"If you just compose your diet of 100% bacon, you'll probably live forever." YOU ARE SUCH A CHAMP. Hahaha. Looks like you were in my neck of the woods in the Bow Valley - AWESOME!!!! Was the hike with the horned fossils Mt. Sentry? As a geologist, I also appreciate you showing us the rocks. Great content.
Wait, did horn coral live on bacon? Is that why they're around millions of years later?
Lol, The bacon comments was some high quality trolling, I wish he wouldn't have said it was a joke so we could see all the "BaCoN ISn'T HEaLtHy!!!" morons
holy shit! its you! i havent seen your channel for 7 years or so... lol
Yeah I eat dead animal parts too ..
So freakin delicious !!
Marry me
Im canadian and watching this from Phillipines and one thing i got to tell ya youre crazy man, i get so much of this weather and some that i cant take it anymore and you doing this instead of going south!?
Weather right know here on December 28, 2019. At 9am is 31 and sunny
The double tap breakfast sandwich(es)...excellent way to start the day. Stay safe and keep inspiring us!
I've been living in my minivan for the last 8 years absolutely love the channel
Those fossils were so cool! Glad you're safe and well, Merry Christmas!!
Diet advise from Doctor Foresty. Nice! Happy New Year my friend.
Awesome format keep doing this boon docking , from the out side the van is just a van but inside you are warm and snug , food , drink , entertainment , a bed to sleep in all while its -30 i love this kind of stuff , thanks !
Wow great video. Drone footage, shots to tell the story about getting water from a creek looked great. The scenery driving up that hill looked amazing. And: your diet advice is hilarious!
I couldn’t even live in a minivan in a Arizona winter. Cheers to you.
*I did a minvan for almost 3years, but now I'm glad to have more room and even some standing room. I'm doing my 1st "real" winter, except I'm in Virginia, that's bad enough for me* ‼️😂🤣
The organic salad might cancel out the immortality effects of the bacon, careful :)
🤣😂👍
Wohh man! Such a killer comment and Foresty didnt even like it! Lol.
instablaster...
In that case just add some butter and lard to your diet...you'll live to 100 at least.
Those shots with the drone are GOD TIER
Drone shots were awesome.
Hope you had a good Christmas 🎄 ❤️
Ok, so first thing tommorow I will be stocking up 80 years worth of bacon! Im glad to have learned how to health ;)
Wow. Absolutely fantastic footage and scenery. Thank you sir for sharing your life and skills with all of us that cant do what you do. Beautiful stuff!
Those fossils alone are enough of a reward for climbing.
I love it, My Man. Great Vids. Amazing Stories.
Great to see another video from you. well and alive !
I beg you, please post more often! Waiting weeks for these videos is tough! Really love the videos about how you made your van and how you live. Love the cooking too! I've even gone back and watched all your old vids with the bike tours!
Drone while driving. What a boss
With that high quality coffee you should ABSOLUTELY rinse those paper filters before pour over! Just a tip... and only for a minute
I'm always lazy and skip that step. Haha. I'll have to start doing it now.
I'm addicted to your vids! Keep them coming!
To quote Bob Saget from the movie Half Baked "Boo!".
Great drone footage, really adds to the experience of how remote you are.
Crazy cool! I love your exploration methods and the clever way you utilize your van. Fun stuff
I was worried but you’re ALIVE !
He's got Ben and Jerry's
Welcome back man :) Hope you're stayin' toasty.
From California you truly mastered the Art of Canadian Winter Boon docking as well as tasty looking daily meals. Enjoy and Be SAFE.
Beautiful country, no wonder my Daughter loves living in Canmore; she’s never going back to Ontario!
