- Justin Balzer AKA Griz, is an avid hunter, fisherman and all around outdoorsman. In every season he strives to spend as much time as he can in wildernesses both far and near, chasing the wild harvests that his home province of British Columbia has to offer. This is the primary means by which he chooses to source the food that sustains himself and his family. Follow along on a full year of his practice of subsistence.

FEATURING Justin Balzer AKA Griz, Scotti Griffin, Fraser Jade & Freya
with Hayden Strathearn, Dan Storer & Landon Siguoin
A FARGONE FILM
Produced by Nolan Schneider
Filmed and Edited by Nicholas Thielmann
I think this may be the most wholesome outdoor film I have ever watched. Its hard to narrow down a favourite moment but seeing Griz catching fish on the river bank with Fraser Jade on his chest was a top notch dad moment! Congratulations to everyone involved in putting this together!
Appreciate you saying that! Griz and Scotti are definitely top notch wilderness parents!
Agreed, this was a great one
For me too. Just great!! Best regards from Germany!!💪💪
Minus the fact that he’s exploiting the outdoors for clicks and likes … always a little pathetic to see
Just the opposite actually! Griz was fully living this lifestyle before we asked him if we could tag along on his adventures and make a film with him. Our hope is to inspire more people to get out and explore their own local wilderness and see what it has to offer them!
The best part is you found a life partner that enjoys doing all these with you.
จริงดิ🤔🤍
Yup, nothing happens without that.
Honestly the best part of this movie is just the way you and the family get out and enjoy the outdoors together! Nothing more special then bringing your young ones along and teaching them the ways of the outdoors!
My dad taught me the ways of the outdoors I learned all about getting hammered drunk, littering, starting fights with random passers-by, how to hide your alcohol whhen rangers come around and how to start a fire with gasoline.
All of this is pure greatness. But let’s face it, this couple is undoubtably eating the healthiest foods possible.
Got chills during the Elk call scene. So visceral.
Fantastic work team 👊
Thanks dude! That's a big fav for us too!
omg me too
I really appreciate that you dispatch the fish with a club immediatly .thank you for being real outdoor people
This is the best outdoor film I’ve ever seen. I’m a new dad and thoughts of providing have me relating to this video in a deep way
I also got this urge after becoming a father.
Its like a call hehe
My favourite part was the BOBBER DOWN!! And my second favourite part was me sounding out of breath as I walk to the fishing hole pregnant lol 😂
You are goin to be the best mother, you are such an inspirationto me and my fiance and our lives and letting us get a glimpse of how you guys parent and live. My dream is to work hard enough for me and her to move somewhere nice, live off the land and teach my future children the values of living off of God’s land. You are your husband are such an inspiration ❤
Nice lifestyle, much more seeing you drinking "mate".
Don't know if it is possible to keep living this once the baby grew up...
Any way...fantastic!!!
Chapeau!!
Fron Uruguay with love!!
Bringing your baby girl out into the wild and introducing her to your world and normal. So humble and pure. Also the double elk was truly incredible!
Another great one from Fargone. This guy gets it, protection of the environment, foraging, finishing, instilling a passion for nature in his kid and filling the freezer. Personally, I think my favourite part was harvesting the two elk, especially cause it was his buddies first. That is a memory that will last a life time and its awesome when you get to share it with someone.
Exactly, seing the joy in the eyes of the people you’re with is the best feeling ever
The best moment is when you see father and daughter together outdoors at the end of this wonderful film! My father had a backpack for myself when I was a baby. He said I slept as he worked. Serenity!
It was a pleasure to watch this man and his family do what they do. I will be a first time father this October and to see this film puts things into perespectiv, and, what is important in your life. Thank you.
A wholesome display of passion for the outdoors in different aspects. Love seeing Justin and Scotti bringing Fraser along for all the adventures. It’s the same way I was raised and love seeing other couples doing the same.
Favourite part is the joy you have in sharing the hunts, fishing, and your knowledge and passion with your wife, your kid, your friends, we need to keep living this way and sharing these experiences together!
My new favourite outdoor film by far! Love the wholesome family moments and your core values you share through the land as well as your passion and hard work for sustainable living. My partner Scott and I are expecting our first kiddo any day now and my favourite part was watching you guys share your core values with Fraser and immersing her in your lifestyle right from the get go. We are very excited to get out with our little peanut this spring and start the adventures as a family of 3 and share our sustainable lifestyle with our kiddo and teach them so many valuable life lessons through nature like you guys have. Amazing work guys!!
Thanks for saying that! All the best with your growing family!
My favorite moment is discussing bringing your kids into it. I raised my kids that way and now working on my 2 grandchildren. It never gets old seeing a new spark in a young eye.
Appreciate that you showed everything from the stalk and harvest to the processing - too many films skim over dealing with a downed animal. Thanks.
you guys do it right. Most people give up all their hobbies and everything that was important to them once they have kids. Glad to see you still manage to enjoy life
This video has been saved straight to favourites. One of the very best TH-cam contributions I've seen in such a long time. I love how they live and I love how they parent - no doubt they are doing life the best way for themselves, each other and their child. Admiration and respect for them.
It has been a while since I have seen a video this wonderful. It was wholesome without cursing or childish behavior. You just did what was necessary to feed your family. And you have a wonderful family. Thankyou for taking us on this journey.
Best part, hands down, was the scene that started at 18:38 with a tailgate diaper change just before you took him fishing. As a dad I have countless tailgate diaper changes while exploring out with my family and I've come to learn that the most memorable family memories are those spent outdoors. Keep it up. This film is inspiring and you've clearly dedicated time, energy, and resources into mastering all the small little skills that add up to being able to provide for your family.
Such a great film! My favourite moment was watching scotti & Grizz discuss what parenting could look like just before Fraser was born while they’re out fishing! She’s a rock star. Very inspiring!
This was flat out incredible! Thank you for allowing us to get a glimpse into your world. I am nothing short of envious of the lifestyle you are living, from your access to beautiful land and animals, to the passions you clearly share with your life partner, to the wonderful grounded and healthy environment you are going to raise your child in. You sir are doing things the right way. I truly loved every minute of this film.
Great film! Glad we could play a small role in bringing this story to life.
Thanks for being a part of it! We're thankful for the support!
Great film! Grizz and Scotti's passion for the outdoors and positive outlook will surely pass on to their daughter. My favorite moment was the elk double!
It's really hard to pick a favorite part of this film. As an avid fly fisherman (guide) myself and hunter (world wide) I like how you showed how p
the whole family can get outdoors all year round and experience nature and make lifelong lasting memories. And put the best kind of food on your table for your family. Gotta love that Elk hunt.
By far one of the best films to show exactly what we strive for in the outdoors. Great film.
I think my favorite part was seeing Griz catch all of those beautiful trout! It is hard to have a favorite part because it was all so good! Thank you for making my day!
What an amazing film. The Fargone boys are unbelievable what they can capture behind the camera. My favourite scene was the first bugle back from an elk. Brings me right back to that moment. Well done Nic and Nolan. Unforgettable trip with you boys!
That was a great film. Everything was good, but I really enjoyed him hunting with his friend for elk. Calling and stalking the elk was excellent and being lucky enough for both of them getting an elk was great. Loved it.
Wow!!!! Nic! A proud mom moment watching your film and seeing the fruits of your labor of love! Favorite moment for me was seeing your smiling face behind the camera in the film credits! Amazing film and amazing group of people who came together to make this film happen! Congrats🎉
I’m from northern bc . I have two huge freezers ..one for fish , one for elk , moose , deer and chickens 😂. We are blessed to live in bc . I haven’t bought red meat in 8 years and there is nothing better than listening to bugling bulls in our grocery store …the woods . Great video
Favourite part had to be the double Elk. Unreal! Also, I love how the film shows how a regular Joe who also works a job in town, can get out there and provide for his family long term.
A lot of wisdom and inspiration for all walks of life. The Jade Family represent a heritage of outdoor living but also the future of life with the land. Great job showing all of this, Top Notch!!!
Find myself wanting to try Old Milwaukee again. Been a few decades since my beer budget was that low....... 👊🏼👍🏼🤙🏼
Man after my own heart. Nothing better than providing for the family and raising the next generation to appreciate God’s gift to us. Great cinematography, thoroughly enjoyed watching your video. God bless….
Great Film! love the content and the perspective of this outdoorsman .Favorite moment is the family fishing together, those are the memories you will cherish forever
You know I think a lot have people have commented about it but I really related at the beginning when you had you the wife and kiddo on the ice and you were talking about how you want her to have the same love and drive to be outside and do those things as well. I am a few short months away from having my first kid and I have been so excited to do the same with him. I want him to have the love for the outdoors and respect for the animals and I want him to want to harvest animals and live off the land. The outdoors is my happy place and I hope that it will be his as well, my dad has been one of my best friends and I hope that it will be the same for my little guy when he gets here. Phenomenal film!
What a fantastic way of life you lead with your family. Providing for them must be very satisfying. Having a wife prepared to live where you live and do what you do must be fantastic too. Bringing up your daughter this way is extraordinary. I envy you.
My favorite part was seeing the transition of just you and your wife to adding in your sweet baby girl. Such a blessing to be able to provide for your family and know exactly where your food came from! Keep up the good work brother.
The double elk day was pretty special, but I think fishing with a baby carrier on your chest is the real highlight for me. Griz and Scottie are doing it right.
OMG... You guys live life according to a set of values that really resonates profoundly to me. Those rivers, woods, flora, animals, fishes, the smiles on your faces and the tranquility of it all give me trust in humanity and that it is possible to make a living in the wilderness.
Favorite moment is absolutely when you find/stumble over that first buck you shot! That was emotional - eyewatering. Nothing is worse than hurting an animal like that and knowing it is out there somewhere hurting, struggling and dying on its own. Thank you for sharing!
Guys, this was incredible! Everything about it was just so wholesome, and Grizz and the family seemed so grateful for everything. I'd have to say my favourite scene was when the camera was under the river, then came up to show Grizz and the dog fishing.
Best part? Two-bull day. The looks on their faces were priceless as they celebrated their success of the hunt. It being Hayden's first elk makes it all the better. Overall, quite an enjoyable film about the bounties of the land and how it provides for Griz's family.
Awesome story! Favorite moment has to be the double up elk hunting. Must have been a wild day. The stoke when they find the second says it all.
Fantastic Film. Glued to the screen every minute of it. Resonating, nodding along and feeling the truth of these wild persuits
My favorite moment was when you caught the rainbow trout at the beginning of the film resembling a start of an exciting journey!
so incredibly proud of you all!! amazing to see this project come to life. love scotti and griz’s knowledge and passion, it’s contagious!
Favorite part! That underwater footage of that beautiful Chinock 😍! And anything Scottie 😍 ❤🎉 💃
That’s one of my favourites too
That was an awesome video! Best part for me was seeing how caring and ethical both him and his wife are and that they want to pass that down to their kids.
Reg 2 Blacktail! So elusive in these jungles! Awesome film!
This is AWESOME! I have been in France for studying for a year now but am a native of the western farmland of Iceland, flying back home on friday, getting picked up at the airport at 2pm, will leave for fishing Sea trout (hopefully some salmon if Im really lucky) at 6pm, gotta get back into nature. Cant wait to be able to share that with my future kids like you do, awesome watching. And congrats on the kid!
I really don’t understand how you guys don’t have over 1M subscribers - the content you guys are putting out is crazy!
To je zato jer globalno drustvo forsira bolesno veganstvo i slicna sranja, ljudi su udaljeni od svojih praiskonskih vestina lova i ribolova, sada je moderno imati elektro bicikl, auto na baterije i pasti travke...
this is their first video i watched… amazing quality, editing and overall message. they deserve more for sure
The algorithms won't promote people living free off the land. No profit for the globalist agenda.
Mindblowing right!? 😮
This is a spectacular film. Obvious Justin and Scotti were raised right, and so glad to see you pass it on to lil' Fraser.
Bravo!
His energy and passion for his lifestyle is infectious nice job 👏
Damn, one of the best hunting/ fishing videos I’ve seen in years. Well done!
This was an awesome film! You are really living the dream. I have fished my whole life but now I am getting into hunting since I am nearing the end of my hockey career. I am excited to share the same experiences with my family one day. My favourite part was when Griz brought the family down to the river to go fishing. My wife and I looked at each other when we watched this and just smiled :)
Glad you liked it! Definitely worth getting into hunting! That's a favorite moment for us as well!!
Well produced film. Im older now and this film brings back so many of my best memories of my love for hunting, fishing and the outdoors and actually sparks me the get up and get out there to enjoy even more adventures of the great outdoors. Being a family focused film is the overall best part of this Super inspiring film!
I love this, but my question watching this is, how can he afford all his gear and house and so on...
Did you see all the sponsors listed at the beginning of the video? Pretty people using really expensive gear to supply the protein portion of their grocery budget.
At 16:00 he says he fully works. His truck has his company on it. He doesn’t live in a city. Most likely his costs are low and he can spend extra money on gear. I think the sponsors are just for the documentary
He makes his money from TH-cam, look at how many views from this clip alone, most people getting that many are doing quite well
You my friend you are paying him
@@Frank-v8e1o I think that would be called a forest
You guys totally rock! Im so glad that there are people in this world who are humble and appreciative of the world that surrounds you! I live in the country and totally live off what god gives me in the wild as much as time allows me, including my two cane corso's. Including your child is totally awesome! I did that with my son, and it's totality a jump start in life for the kids at every angle imaginable. My son adapts and overcomes every crazy weather change and he is a outside person. It's about being disciplined at every corner of life wherever your at! Good luck! I appreciate your content i truly believe people need to see life as it comes.
Thanks from Atlanta Ga ❤ EVERYTHING about this video was GREAT🎉
Loving the proud outdoor family. We need more of that in todays world.
Fantastic videography, best part was all the fly fishing
It's such a great film. This is what it's all about! Family, traditions, outdoors, nature and memories! My favorite parts are well..... the entire show, but the elk hunting is great!
This ain’t no video… it’s a whole movie!
Best video I've watched on TH-cam yet Far as hunting and fishing living off the lands. . The double on the elk was awesome. Glad your buddie got his to .
Bro is just so casually living every man’s dream
Congratulations Fargone on such a quality and natural film! Huge Kudos Nolan, Nic and Justin (Griz)!! Thanks for allowing us all in on the adventures!
F***ing great watch
Fucking agree!
@@Frank-v8e1o You must be fun at parties
Loved this! Better than 99% of any wilderness thing I’ve watched
also that release of that spawner chinookj is a sweet clip
Wow!!
One of the coolest outdoor videos I've seen, hands down.
Very well done oh boy, way to go on teaching the young one how to live and have fun doing it.
so.. new here.. how does justin pay for all this stuff? Equipment, lodging, Tags and licenses, travel? I mean yeah its possible to provide enough food to eat, but without income you are stuck where ever you are.
Most of these people are wealthy and have the time.
@@cryptocrazy560 bingo.
15:59
This is unreal, can't wait to see more from you guys! What a great story!
Best part is hearing the screaming elk. We were hunting elk in the same area as the guys here the week after and had a similar experience. Brings back some amazing memories. Sends shivers down the spine hearing elk go off in the woods.
Bigtime favorite moment for us as well! Nothing like that sound in person!
this man has a life that everyone has been dreaming of, life in the wilderness path, a nice wife who can go fishing with you and such a wonderful kid
That’s the best film I’ve seen this year. Outstanding Justin!
First time coming across this Chanel but the minute I did I was hooked
This film was awesome. It has reinvigorated my outlook on BC living and it’s outdoors. Well done!! The “Wooo!” echo in the dead silence after the Elk was put down in region 7 was great, it captured the serenity of the wild, away from urban chaos.
This is unbelievable. What a way to live a life. Thank you for sharing this film
It is probably the most beautiful film I’ve seen about outdoors. I really think it’s all a man need, a beautiful family to take care of and the wilderness.
Amazing work
This is a dream lifestyle that I would love to live. It is awesome to see that it is within reach if the effort, time, and dedication is applied. Watching this on the day of my Hunting Tag Application is super exciting and motivating. What an awesome, enriching and enjoyable piece of cinematography. Absolutely awesome work and thank you for sharing!
awesome flick, I can tell you all are good hearted solid people. Love you see you in the world.
Well done! The case of Old Milwaukee made me chuckle. Great job.
My favorite part of this is showing the aspect out it is about your family. Not just your biological family but any person you hunt or fish with they become your family. I’m also a sucker for open flame cooking so those scenes got me motivated for camping & fishing season!
As a new father the fact that you involve your family is something I will try to do
This is one of the best outdoor films I've ever seen. So cool to see the various harvests from different areas of the province. Made me want to get out and explore more of them. Favorite scene has to be stumbling upon the second downed elk!
Fantastic. Great film, great family & great messages. Thanks for sharing
This is most fascinating outdoor video I’ve ever watched, every minute of it is just wow👏🏼 subscribed ✅
Excellent!
I'm impressed of all the positive comments, couldn't find a negative.
You're living striving so adapted love watching thanks for your energy beautiful family
Oh my favorite part is seeing you harvesting both bull at pretty much the same spot, what time, impossible memories to forgot and to share that with a buddy !! Congrats !! Such a beautiful movie and life, I harvest a big part of my life but only move to bc 10 years ago and learning every day.
this is by far the best outdoor film i've watched, the way you narrow and ur hunting skills are amazing bro i learned a lot today.
I would have to say my favourite part was the last few frames of the Fargone boys. You can see the joy in their faces doing what they love. I feel so lucky to have spent the last year capturing some awesome moments with them.
Otherwise that’s sick bobber down, riding the ripple of the water.
Right back atchya buddy! what a wild ride!! The bobber downs were peak! 👌
This was such a fun watch. Made me want to get out and hike as soon as possible. The moment when Griz and Scotti are talking about childhood and family while fishing at sunset hit me right in the heart. Something about celebrating blazing a new trail in life with wonder by getting into the wilderness - that's what it's all about! Already looking forward to the next film from you guys.
My favorite part was seeing it all come together at the dinner table with the family. Well done.....this is how we are suppose to live our lives.
Now that's a film that should be shown at all hunter safety courses! Very informative on how hunting and fishing and all is very important to show young people that you can live on harvesting animals and fish. And just enjoying the outdoors. Great movie!
45 minutes went by so fast, I could watch another hour of this. Enjoyed every minute of it.
I am stunned. These guys are living an absolute dream of mine. Can't wait to get my thesis done and get studying for my hunting license when I see this.
Wishing you all the best for your young family!
The best part of the film is watching them take care of two bulls down. Fantastic!
You are a beautiful family, living a wonderful life. Thanks for sharing some of it with us.
