    Beau is the kind of bloke that every Australian guy wants as his best mate. You make me appreciate my country more Beau. We truly do live in God's Country. I've just taken up hiking again after giving it a rest for a few years - I used to go hike in the Dandenongs but now I live in Perth, so I go down south to the old growth forests. I did a 28km overnighter in a stunning old Karri forest a few weeks ago and felt like a new man at the end of it.

      ​@@solchapeau6343 Do you know why people do uncomfortable things? No one trains until they almost pass out or hike for days in inhumane environments just because they like being uncomfortable. It's the feeling you get after something you do that you normally wouldn't. No matter how "bizarre" it might be. That's stepping out of your comfort zone.

    Even living on the other side of the globe, the same common threads exist. The northeastern United States has been logged nearly completely, with only a few pockets of true old growth left. Even what we think of as wild was once torn apart by the opportunistic and shortsighted behaviors of man, today, yesterday, or 300 years ago. Beau is a true adventurer, and a true inspiration.

      There was a short film about that in VIMFF, where a beautiful valley of trees has been logged for the last centuries (which is a shame), but which also provided opportunity for the families living there and outdoor enthousiasts. It was an interesting narrative although mainly a climbing film. Would still recommend though.

    I think I've figured it out. Beau is basically the Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown of outdoor adventure. Parts Unknown has episodes about something simple and overlooked like Indian food or Sizzler and then exposes this deep underbelly of the soul of the food and the culture that embodies it. I feel like Beau does a very similar thing for otherwise overlooked outdoors topics, like making a paddle out of scrap wood or eating only beans for an entire month because he read a line in a Steinbeck novel. It may at first glance sound trivial, but I'm always astonished with his ability to articulate a perspective that has a way of making you see the beauty in anything.

    These definitely are films and not videos. My definition of a film is you walk away from a film feeling more sophisticated and smarter. And every video that this man creates makes you feel that way 👍

    This hits home real deep, coming from a farm where there’s barely any trees, and there’s people knocking over 150-300 year old oke trees just so they don’t have to turn off their tractor gps

    My youth was spent on the back of a golf course. I used to spend countless weekends perched up high in one of these gums for hours on end.
    Many a nap, many a whistling convo with the birds. I wish for every child to have this experience.

    Beau mate, I discovered your channel yesterday, and I gotta say it's such a breath of fresh air. Your passion for your land, for THE land, for your family and just for life in general is so inspiring. As a young fella who's trying to work out what I want to do and where I want to go in life, it gives me comfort to see blokes like you, who clearly have that sorted already. Thank you, thank you, thank you for putting these videos out there in the world.

    I have a passion for gums also. I first experienced them when I lived in Oz for a couple of years. When I came home I planted a gum tree in Miami and it grew sooooo fast and beautiful. Tricolor bark. I felt bad when I sold my house to leave it . You land is beautiful and looks like you are really enjoying it with your family. Thanks for the videoo.
