    Naan calzones have gone international---by gum we've done it! That was an elite calzone execution, a work of art. Thanks for the love brother, always love your content and camp ethics. Canada 2025 🤔

    I was raised in sandstone country and lived much of my life within and also exploring Scotty. Being 74 + yrs now I doubt I will ever get back to exploring other than through the eyes of someone like you so I thank you. But I would love to have an idea as to closer to where this is please.

  • @davecharles7551
    @davecharles7551 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    Awesome video as always. I recommend that to clean the camp spot, especially in a cave, that you break a branch and wipe the area with the leaves, then throw it on your fire to keep the mozzies away. You'll scare any nasties hiding in the sand away. That's what we were taught to do when camping out bush. It's worked for us for thousands of years.
    I hope your new addition to your family is doing well.

  • @TheBeardedBushranger
    @TheBeardedBushranger 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    Really loved the history at the start and talking about how the early accounts often talk about the bush being like a garden. Those paintings of the indigenous mob doing burns were great.
    Also that's the first time I've seen a shot of a wedgie watching a goanna taking a dump 😆

  • @LittleSimGoesWild
    @LittleSimGoesWild 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

  • @mamaswatching4544
    @mamaswatching4544 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    Scotty, I grew up in bush like this, with the sandy crystal clear creeks and sandy caves, in NSW. I’m older now, this was delightful to watch. Brought back so many memories. Thank you ❤

  • @tinamcdougall4506
    @tinamcdougall4506 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    I absolutely love this video, the goanna, and wedgie part my favourite 😍 closely competing with the piglets swimming across the river and Scotty's obvious enjoyment of the entire camp. Thanks for sharing Scotty's, made my day 🎉

    @kennethsilvestri5874 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    You took a beating with the biting ant and cactus on this trip! Carrying a leatherman comes in so handy out in the wilderness. Adds a little weight but the pliers with cutters are invaluable and comes with a decent knife for a backup. That tool has saved me more than any other item i.e. fixing broken zippers on tents, packs, sleeping bags, unscrewing cap for superglue to fix hole in inflatable kayak.

    So much bird song in the background just like an orchestra. Day and night the sounds are intoxicating and I'm lucky enough to live in it. Bushyboy Oz

  • @Ace40000
    @Ace40000 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Great video! I camped at the same place for a few days about a month ago and did a walk about half way down the creek adjoining the main river. I explored as many caves as I could and took photos of all the rock formations and beautiful scenery, just amazing and so green. We may have even been there on the same weekend, I parked next to an overnighter's 4wd on the ridge back at the property for my day walk. Like yourself i hope to go back there soon and make it all the way to the main river and explore more caves, what an stunning place!

    • @unidentified8275
      @unidentified8275 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      How do you do this and not get lost? And how does one find these places? This type of camping looks really cool.

  • @rodgeorge7244
    @rodgeorge7244 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    The Aussie Bush never fails to impress and I have been lucky enough to see and experience a hell of a lot of it and I never tire of seeing some thing new having said that I have seen a bit of the Blue Mountains over the years but every valley large or small always has something new to offer. Thanks Scotty for taking us along with you .

    Such a unique environment. Never seen that kind of jungle with a lot of caves and shallow river with grass like that before. Good video!

  • @papajeff5486
    @papajeff5486 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Scottie, thank you for showing us some of the beauty Australia. I hope you can keep it a secret. I know you know, the trouble with piglets is their mom. A long time ago, in a land far far away, I had some run around me, down a dry creek bed, on their way to the main creek. Their mom was huge, walked up to me, growled at me, then walked away. Does everything there want to stick, sting and bite? Had a cactus stick me and festered for days…aggravating. Thank you…from an old vet, retired in the US, hills of east Tennessee.

    It's Autumn in Canada, the leaves are coloured and falling. The American Bald Eagle has a wing span of 2.44 metres, and a weight of up to 6.3 kilos. Not sure what your eagle measures up to, but they are a beautiful bird, aren't they? Your scenery is spectacular. Thanks for the video. Hope those cacti spikes all got out safely. Cheers.

    @ERIKOFFTRACK 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks Scotty, enjoyed that one! Super interesting country mate! Animals seemed to enjoy that it was open too. I often lament the loss of grassy banks and open river flats from the places I know - great to see a river that provides a snap shot back to rhe old country.

    @MegaNighteyes 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That cactus you stepped on looks like a tiger pear and yes they are very sharp and painful. They seem to have a small barb on point with makes them hard and painful to remove. The barb often breaks off and stays with you for a long time as a reminder.

    Great episode Scotty, what a magic place. The wedgie and the goanna were a highlight. Not often you would see a wedgie that close up let alone seeing the interaction between the wedgie and a goanna. The wedgie seemed pretty keen to keep an eye on that goanna 😊

    Bitten by a demon ant, evicted by kangaroos, and stabbed by a cactus; still a smile on your face and a plan to come back. So awesome, thanks Scotty. The whole time I was watching this, was thinking, why don't we use whatever kind of grass that is here in the states? no mowing, and it's beautiful. Have a lovely week.

  • @Amanda-ei7oc

    Good on you Scotty for not publicising the name's of the places you go. I recognise a lot of them and it's great to go there again vicariously with you and not have to worry about the success of your channel destroying them.

  • @u2fanforever1
    @u2fanforever1 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’ve been watching you for years, since COVID or so. Had Akubra hat advice and own one, bought a tarp and a mattress from Australia. But that cactus. F’ man. I felt that in Canada. Put your boots on bud.

  • @Drainoed
    @Drainoed 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It’s funny how I found Jon then Xander then you all in a row and it was before you all knew of each other. At least openly. Same vibes in all three channels.. good dudes and appreciation for the earth and being kind. It’s nice to see light in the darkness of what life can be. Also it’s a cal ZONE .. it’s a Philladelohia New Jersey New York thing.. ❤

    What beautiful countryside! Lots of wildlife. The pigs were cute. The calzones looked really good. That cactus in your foot looked so painful and pulling it out looked even more painful. Ouch!! You're going into spring and here in the U.S., we're going into fall. Really enjoyed the video, thanks!

    Cool shout out to Xander and John, it would be awesome if they both went down under and did a canoe trip with you or vise versa, you come to Canada and do a fishing trip! Hope it happens! 🙂
