Hilarious! Foresty, you are a million miles away from becoming a geriatric van life channel. You're just being sensible and leaving the heavy snow behind. Better you and Rocko stay warm and safe. A long winter stretches ahead. A little sunshine is good for you both.
I know. He's does a beautiful video every time and spends 30 seconds in a lot of his videos denegrating his videos. He did such a great job this video giving me history of Butte, and thinks he needs to narrate everything every fricking moment. HE DOESENT EVEN NEED TO TALK. It's fine if he want's to, he does very good at narration. BUT HE DOESN'T NEED TO. His videography is amazing and that's a big reason I love his channel.
The beast who eats mountains for breakfast says he's geriatric while the rest of us actual old folk watch him from the comfort of our warm homes. You rock, Foresty! Rest rules, pace yourself, and I wouldn't want to watch you drive 10 hours anyway. We love your content because you are you.
Seriously, I need to adventure with Forestry for a few weeks or a month and make him understand clearly his true weaknesses and strengths, not the ones he articulates in his videos, because the stuff he says are his weaknesses, I don't think any of us followers ever care about. It's a lot of stuff that doesn't even matter. The thing that matters is his adventurous spirit. His being out in the middle of the most beautiful places on earth and walking, not talking, but walking and doing it. His cinematography is so awesome. His video editing and drone video is breathtaking. He's so awesome and doesn't seem to know it clearly. I don't want him to ever quit his channel because I love his content so much, so I need to make sure he is properly motivated to continue forever! Thankfully, Forest, I live in Boise, Idaho and love Jack Russels and riding bikes so I'm hopeful I'll get a chance to show you some Idaho history someday.
@@eliminator7fulNot sure what you are *TRYING* to say but it doesn't sound nice and you sound like an a$$ for belittling what he says. But then claim he's the greatest??
It's great to see my birth place and old stomping grounds. Thank you for spending some time in Butte. My grandfather worked the copper and silver mines for 25 years. My mom went to school and hung around with Evil Kinevel. I played in the sandbox with Robbie when I was a kid. Thank you for giving me a glimpse of home.
I played university football with some Butte guys and they were honestly the craziest SOB's I've ever met. Seriously, something must be in the drinking water there in Butte. I even joined them in Butte for the annual St Patrick's day celebration. Surprised I made it out alive :)
In 1972 I lived and worked as an underground miner in Butte “The Richest Hill on Earth” home to the “Copper Kings.” I worked at the bottom of the Kelly Shaft at the 4,550 foot level. Go out to the hot springs At Anaconda for a soak.
I’d stay as far away from any hot springs in anaconda as possible. Lot of chemicals processed and leaked out there by stauffer chemical way back in the day. Lots of issues caused by them.
Thanks for the tour of Butte's historic architecture. Incredible history in that area. I don't think you have to worry about your channel becoming a geriatric channel since you climb mountains that goats fear to tread!
It's sometimes nice to slow down, relax, and enjoy what's around you. The tour through Butte was great! Nice to see the older buildings and hear a little bit about the history there. You ended on firing up the wood stove. It's so cozy in there😍 Thanks for another great video Foresty! You never fail to entertain 😁
Well, I'm a widowed octogenarian still traversing the country at least 6 months out of the year. I pull a teardrop trailer. I do stay at Walmarts when I'm just passing through an area. My dog and I don't climb mountains but sure do love being on the road. 😊 I really do enjoy watching your adventures, you are amazing and so is Rocko!
@@YanksandBritsProductions Haven't been to the Smokys. Would love to see them someday. I live in a small town in Colorado now. We have a channel, but it is not about hiking. www.youtube.com/@pintsizedriotproductions
@@YanksandBritsProductions Arizona is beautiful. There is a lot to see. I have a friend that winters in Quartzite in his RV every year. I hope you can get back to the states soon.
Someone else asked that same question, and Foresty said that a person rode by him on a bicycle (not shown in the video) and that the husky was following that person (most likely the owner).
I wish I could double-like for your videos. Every time I see you have a new video out I am like a kid at Christmas - I can't wait to watch it... Your channel if far and away my favourite on TH-cam. Foresty Forest - top bloke! 🙂
Spot on! I am qualified for geriatric! By the way, I was 19 year old student working at the summer camp when the group of school kids from Chernobyl area arrived via rehabilitation program, first summer of the disaster. I learned that summer how brave and resilient kids could be, homes lost, parents somewhere away looking for answers… The group I worked with would be seniors that coming school year. All future plans lost, we sneaked at night to the beach to sit at the fire, telling stories, singing quite songs to a guitar. I cannot make myself watch the movie, I know it would hurt just as it did that summer, helpless and angry. Anyone who was not touched by the tragedy has to watch it and remember how fragile and stupid humans are.
i love bieng able to share your adventure. personally, even if your videos are silent, i'm perfectly ok to just exist with your life and the world through your lens.
Fantastic little snippet of "a day in the life of Foresty and his trusty companion". Loved the update and the video on this dreary wet rainy day!! Thank you for sharing of yourself and your passions!! 💞
I'm glad you mentioned the diesel fumes. I definitely won't be getting one of those heaters! I used to get headaches and nausea whenever I went below on my Dad's boat -- he had an inboard diesel. It doesn't matter how good the exhaust or how sealed the tank/compartment is. That stuff stinks if you are sensitive to it. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks, Foresty!
It's Butte, America to you! Welcome to Montana! You can spend hours just wandering around uptown reading the historic signs and looking at the buildings.
I have never tried Tillamook. I think I will find some for my mac and cheese for Thanksgiving. 😊My husband loves a sharp chedder. Foresty, I would watch you camp anywhere! You and Rocko are just.... heartwarming, wholesome and completely entertaining. It's just like hanging out with really great friends. I don't blame you for leaving the snow! Y'all take care and be safe out there. Looking forward to whatever adventures you and darling Rocko get in to! If you post it, I will watch it! 😊😊❤❤🐶🐶
Oregon here. If you ever visit you can go to Tillamook & also get freshly made ice cream. The coast is nearby for fresh seafood. Beautiful area. We are friendly, eclectic people. Also, no tax. On anything & you can’t pump your own gas. ☮️
@@stanbyme7874If I were to visit Tillamook, Oregon when I head north next summer, do they have any type of cheese or ice cream factory tours that are open to the public?
Also, I love your channel and your easy going down to earth personality. Seems like here lately some of the people on YT are letting the fame go to their head.
My Wife grew up in Butte...we still visit from time to time in our camper van. Winter's are brutal there. We're now in AZ and the weather is awesome! 🤗
I love this channel. It gives me real joy at tops of places I could never go and great ideas of easy meals I want to try. ( I LOVE ROCO! ;) She is the best addition to his channel yet. :)
Another foresty forest video to lighten up the day.....I also thought about fumes coming off the cap which is vented on the diesel heater fuel tank when you install it indoors! I simply added a hose fitting to the cap by drilling it out then fitting a hose to the brass fitting and sending it through the rear corner of the van and it exits under the top corner plastics above the tail light. Those caps are a vented cap so everyone who stores them inside gets to breathe those fumes. Hmmm...? A gasoline furnace worries me just because gasoline is so combustible and if the worst happens you may become a foresty burito yourself...??? I'll stick to the dirty fuel as it is difficult to get it to burn without some effort. Keep the video's coming, love them all....I have two Jacks now but are the large framed versions at 30 plus pounds, but I think my next one will again be the same size as Rocko....just easier in a confined space maybe. She certainly is a fine specimen....!
"A day in the van life" looks so relaxing, just what I long for... maybe tomorrow😂 ... or the next day. Thanks for sharing your travels. I haven't gotten enough of my own for years, so must live vicariously. 😊
No reason you shouldn't head south when you feel like it, it's one of the advantages of Van Life. Thanks FF and Rocko for the always entertaining and well produced videos!
FF : Foresty.... did you really sleep good at Walmart last night? Also FF : nope. No I didn't. The street sweeper showed up at 2am and started doing laps around the van..... Lol 😂😅😊❤....
If you are heading to southern Arizona, Simon, I wld like to suggest 2 spectacular hikes in the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge area: Signal Peak (trailhead accessed via Kofa Queen Rd.) and Dome Rock Mountain, accessed via Highway 95. Both peaks wld provide great drone footage.
Foresty, I agree about KOFA mountains. It's an abrupt uplift of magical wonder! Stay clear of the Teddy Bear/Jumping Cacti in AZ. If one gets you pick up two hand-sized rocks, using them like hot pads and smash the ball of spikes that will be sticking out of you between the two rocks and pull it out.
Hello to you, Dear Foresty! I appreciate the thoughtful and light-handed way that you share information and knowledge. It creates a curiosity to learn more. Greetings from The Canadian Prairies
This has been on my favourite list for along time, love the content and its better and better. Thanks Simon for taking all of us along. Stay safe out there.
Hey…I am a lawyer by trade who is ready to run away for 2 months and so do the van life…You so inspire me and fill my travelling soul with beautiful sights! Loved the footage of the old buildings…would love to spend a night in the old hotel! Enjoy your beer and your fire….magic!!
Oh I just loved this cozy day in the life exploring historical & architectural interests!! Please do more as you move about the States! Sometimes i feel so anxious when watching your mountaineering scenes! Yikes!! 😮palms sweating😱vertigo😵💫muscles tensed😬😵🥴
Came across your channel 1 week back and have watched all your videos. Thanks for those amazing heart soothing sceneries and I adore Rocko 🥹 Love from India ❤
Might be a bit late since I'm assuming these videos are slightly delayed, but I stay at a pretty nice rest area west of Butte. Easy parking and quiet. It's at Exit 208 on I-90. There are some parking spots away from the rest rooms, etc. Hopefully good for a future visit to the area.
If you ever head down (or up) the Oregon Coast you can stop at the Tilamook cheese factory, well worth the stop, lots of samples, plenty to buy, and ice cream!
I always enjoy your videos, where you go, your hikes, what you cook, and the good videography. My life has gone a different direction so I really enjoy the scenic views you give us. And I appreciate your casual straight up commentary. You give a sense that what we see is who you are, though I know some of that's simply a social media illusion that we all have. I'm sure there's more to you than what's here. I have a 2006 Suburban setup for sleeping. Did a 5-hour trip but ended up staying with friends so I haven't slept in it yet. Looking forward to some road trips. A 68 my adventures now are all geriatric😊 Never been to Butte Montana so it was good to see. Thanks
Video has only been up for 40 minutes and already almost 5,000 views! After your meet up with Steve, I raise my coffee mug to show solidarity with the step two. I always enjoy your videos when I can get to one on my coffee break. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the tribe!
Really like this Butte tour. I figured it to be a bigger and busier city. I'm an American and you turned me on to Tillamook shredded cheese last year, Thanks!
I'm in the geriatric zone and I'm pretty sure, Foresty that you are light years away from being geriatric in any way. I enjoyed the interesting tour of Butte, and stay safe and warm during this season.
All of the hundreds of time over a35 years span went throw there day or night wow Such a beautiful place And that my friend is why i love your videos May god bless you always keep you and the pup safe Can hardly wait for our next adventure❤
Yep, loved seeing Butte with you. I've seen those same sights. I'm doing winter in AZ; days still in the 70°s. I just can't do cold and snow anymore. I'm your great grandma's age, now that's geriatrics on steroids....literally! if I see ya passing through AZ I'll give a honk, big wave and a smile!
Another great vid. Welcome back to the states. I'd love to see more content from the southwest. More Ancestral Puebloans site exploration would be cool. Maybe some stuff in Arizona, or New Mexico.
HEY! One of your BIGGEST fans here and I live in Montana! But I am east and you won't even find a hill to climb out here! Still fun to see you in my State. Safe travels to you and Rocko and HAPPY THANKSGIVING if you do celebrate the holiday. I am thankful for your channel!
@@BeanCruiserssinging rocks. Ghost towns. Sooooo much to do. Glendive has Makoshika badlands.... Missouri Breaks in north central. So much COOL stuff. Soo large
Thanks for filming some homes and buildings, awesome to see the different types of styles from the past. That Victorian house was a stunner. Really enjoyed everything about this video.
Tillamook makes great ice cream, too! The peanut butter and chocolate is my favorite. Can’t recall if your fridge has a small freezer compartment or not, but I seem to remember you putting ice cream outside in your tire well one time when it was cold outside. I also enjoyed the tour around Butte, and seeing all the old signs painted on the brick exteriors. Glad you and Rocco are keeping warm by the wood stove! Safe travels.
I've been to several southwestern towns with operating or former mines. Bisbee and Ajo Arizona plus Silver City, NM. The nature in the areas is pretty interesting, at least for awhile.
This was my grandparents hometown. Spent every summer in Butte. I have great grandparents memorialized at that memorial with a brick with their name. I miss visiting butte.
“This is quickly becoming a geriatric van life channel.” 😂😂 That’s okay. We’d be grateful to grow old along with you. I can no longer drive in the dark. I get it.
long time viewer , I don't mind these episodes , I'm envious that you can do this , here in the uk we are so limited , after I went to Banff as a teen I fell in love with Canada (I know you're in the States) but this helps , I can close my eyes and imagine I'm you :) . Takecare buddy , you and rocco :)
Mr. Forest, Thanks so much for your content. A late friend and his wife turned me on to your channel a few years ago. Been watching ever since. Each episode seems to take me back to when he was alive. It is a way to stay connected to a lost friend and keep his memory alive. Thanks for the great content.
Really Enjoy your channel! Have for years.... enjoyed seeing and hearing you talk about the town and some of its historical / tourist locations as well. Stay safe out there. Scott and Janet from PEI Canada
I would not hate seeing you show off more architecture cool little towns like that. Those painted advertisements on the side of buildings are fascinating.

He needs to hit the keys in the winter. No peaks to climb but he could do some warm winter fishing!
I agree. You are not geriatric. Just wise
I also can't stand more than four or five hours in the car anymore. No judgements here!
@@rjensen2586 need to find some more exciting routes
I gotta add that as a true geriatric, chronologically, kid, you ain't there. However, I'm OK with an 8 hour drive, so far ;-)

I have a 2006 Suburban setup for sleeping. Did a 5-hour trip but ended up staying with friends so I haven't slept in it yet. Looking forward to some road trips.
A 68 my adventures now are all geriatric😊
Never been to Butte Montana so it was good to see. Thanks
Frosty I love love love your show simply awesome thank you!
@_official_ForestyForest_ how do I get in contact this TH-cam is kind of new to me?
Great to see you and Rocko are doing well!
Love these normal days!
Video has only been up for 40 minutes and already almost 5,000 views! After your meet up with Steve, I raise my coffee mug to show solidarity with the step two.
I always enjoy your videos when I can get to one on my coffee break. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the tribe!
Really like this Butte tour. I figured it to be a bigger and busier city. I'm an American and you turned me on to Tillamook shredded cheese last year, Thanks!
Thank you Foresty, Looking forward to your adventure in the US. More power to ya.
As a dude watching from England I really enjoy these videos of interesting little towns I'd never usually see. Thanks man. 👍🏻
Bute is gorgeous. I love it. Homes and architecture is stunning. Thank you for showing us such a beautiful place. Uk
Super stoked for your upcoming adventures down South!
Another quality Foresty Forest joint. ❤
I'm in the geriatric zone and I'm pretty sure, Foresty that you are light years away from being geriatric in any way. I enjoyed the interesting tour of Butte, and stay safe and warm during this season.
I enjoy everything you and Rocko put out. And I really enjoy hearing about books and movies you like. I check them all. ❤
Foresty Forest (& Rocko) is my literal FAVORITE TH-camR :)
It is always nice to see some quality footage of Butte.
Welcome to the US and thanks for the tour of Butte! Looking forward to your winter adventures.
All of the hundreds of time over a35 years span went throw there day or night wow
Such a beautiful place
And that my friend is why i love your videos
May god bless you always keep you and the pup safe
Can hardly wait for our next adventure❤
Yep, loved seeing Butte with you. I've seen those same sights. I'm doing winter in AZ; days still in the 70°s. I just can't do cold and snow anymore. I'm your great grandma's age, now that's geriatrics on steroids....literally!
if I see ya passing through AZ I'll give a honk, big wave and a smile!
Another great vid. Welcome back to the states. I'd love to see more content from the southwest. More Ancestral Puebloans site exploration would be cool. Maybe some stuff in Arizona, or New Mexico.
Taos NM would be awesome, some hot springs
Truth or Consequences New Mexico has the best hot springs
Your bicycle. Memories. Ugh. I may have to go back to the beginning again. It's been marvelous progress.
HEY! One of your BIGGEST fans here and I live in Montana! But I am east and you won't even find a hill to climb out here! Still fun to see you in my State. Safe travels to you and Rocko and HAPPY THANKSGIVING if you do celebrate the holiday. I am thankful for your channel!
We love Montana, can't wait to go back. Any recommendations on stuff to do there?
@@BeanCruiserssinging rocks. Ghost towns. Sooooo much to do. Glendive has Makoshika badlands.... Missouri Breaks in north central. So much COOL stuff. Soo large
Thanks Foresty for another adventure with you and Rocco! Will definitely need to check out Butte. ❤ Safe Travels
Another great vlog and poor husky having trouble walking. I hope you make it to NM.
Thanks for filming some homes and buildings, awesome to see the different types of styles from the past. That Victorian house was a stunner. Really enjoyed everything about this video.
@official_ForestyForest_ I did get in contact, with TH-cam & reported your fake azz.
That Victorian was my fave too.. I want to buy it lol 💜
@@AngeleDeux1 It was such a beauty
I wonder what the asking price is???
You are living the dream for sure, man. Great video.
Tillamook makes great ice cream, too! The peanut butter and chocolate is my favorite. Can’t recall if your fridge has a small freezer compartment or not, but I seem to remember you putting ice cream outside in your tire well one time when it was cold outside. I also enjoyed the tour around Butte, and seeing all the old signs painted on the brick exteriors. Glad you and Rocco are keeping warm by the wood stove! Safe travels.
Good old Montana, what a beautiful and cold place to be this time of year. Great video and I loved the relaxed nature of it!
I've been to several southwestern towns with operating or former mines. Bisbee and Ajo Arizona plus Silver City, NM. The nature in the areas is pretty interesting, at least for awhile.
So glad to see you have come back to America for a visit. Thanks for making the video's for us to see places most of us would never see.
This was my grandparents hometown. Spent every summer in Butte. I have great grandparents memorialized at that memorial with a brick with their name. I miss visiting butte.
“This is quickly becoming a geriatric van life channel.” 😂😂
That’s okay. We’d be grateful to grow old along with you.
I can no longer drive in the dark. I get it.
Your van is so organized! I love it
long time viewer , I don't mind these episodes , I'm envious that you can do this , here in the uk we are so limited , after I went to Banff as a teen I fell in love with Canada (I know you're in the States) but this helps , I can close my eyes and imagine I'm you :) . Takecare buddy , you and rocco :)
Mr. Forest, Thanks so much for your content. A late friend and his wife turned me on to your channel a few years ago. Been watching ever since. Each episode seems to take me back to when he was alive. It is a way to stay connected to a lost friend and keep his memory alive. Thanks for the great content.
Really Enjoy your channel! Have for years.... enjoyed seeing and hearing you talk about the town and some of its historical / tourist locations as well. Stay safe out there.

"I don't want to get too close to the trestle" says the man that climbs high, scary mountains! ha Love your content!
Hey Simon. I always enjoy spending 15 - 20 minutes with you and Rocko, no matter where you go or what you do. Stay safe and healthy.
I would not hate seeing you show off more architecture cool little towns like that. Those painted advertisements on the side of buildings are fascinating.
You shouldn’t feel guilty watching a bit of TV especially with how active you are. Enjoy your shows bruv
Oh my god!! I drove my van through butte last week. I wonder if we were there around the same time. Come to Oregon foresty!
Cheers! Great to have you back in the States!
If you need a peak to climb head on over here to the Bitterroot Valley, we're just a couple hours from Butte. Trapper peak or El Capitan awaits you
