Days 1 & 2 Of 30 Day Survival Challenge - Canadian Rockies

- This episode, Greg and Zach head into the mountains to their first site and spend a lot of the first two days catching and cooking fish from the nearby lake. In order to preserve food for the long journey ahead, Greg builds a primitive bushcraft fish smoker in spite of relentless rain.
There's only one rule for the 30 Day Survival Challenge: If you want to eat, you got to Catch and Cook it.
Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller.
He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

I thoroughly enjoy this guys videos. Don’t care what he’s wearing or what he looks like. Looks like a manly man to me. Keep on keepin on
I know one thing if i was ever in a situation out in the bush I'd won't him in my camp.
Greg ovens is Brilliant.
@@myramarquez2575 p
You must you brought it up
I like his look but mostly his carefree and funny persona. I like his comical choices in movie clips and music he puts in his videos.

These dudes seem super chill. I'd totally join them on these adventures.
ill take a guess and say u are not female
Yes! they seem "real".
I like Greg alot more than Zach.. Dude has a huge ego!!
All the negative comments on how he looks and dresses dude looks to me as if hes living life and loving it ...great video subscribed aswell keep em coming dude
Mostly he is well supported but some social media trolls and armchair critics just cant help themselves, he's awesome and so is his channel, great comment.
@Mr Westeno he should save them for the needy.
Yo duck me this show is epic
I learn a lot aaaaaaalot
He doesn’t look bad you can tell he was handsome back in his day
"I'm watching every episode." for the second time. i like this videos.
"true humility is being able to accept criticism as graciously as we accept compliments" its good that fowler is trying to help greg on his channel. thumbs up for fowler!
Madting Plays
Hard to do sometimes when it is nasty
rewatching these again, is purging me yet again of society's BS and putting me back in the primitive groove. all love to you and yours Greg!
Man this guy has such a cool energy to him, one of the rare specimens
chrislovesannick not unless your Canadian 😂
I totally agree he has cool natural beautiful energy. There should be more people with a personality like Greg and Zachary.
I was thinking that when he laughed off the fish 'blooper' :)
Y u gotta say "specimen" like that tho
@@veece2384 Because he's a creature you study in the wild.
"It's almost like they paved paradise and put up a parking lot." You sir get a like and subscribe just for saying that.
@DAVE ADAM I think you missed the point. My comment wasn't about surviving anywhere. It was a self realization of how we as humans can sometimes "upset" or ruin what's beautiful by adding big ugly buildings and covering up the landscape with concrete just so we can enjoy it more comfortably.
frankly I almost turned the video off because of that
@@chuntr You don't like Joni Mitchell?
Jayson Hahn I commented this before reading this lol glad someone else caught it
You should subscribe to counting crows... that is a line in one of their songs
I could listen to Greg for hours, I know hes one of those guys with a shit load of great stories.
bcherbs He is very entertaining. Camped with him a couple summers ago-he’s very funny, knowledgeable and kind.
@@michellewickstrom1115 I knew it
thanks bcherbs
Watched Gregs videos over and over...some of the best content on TH-cam. No fancy trickery going on, just real outdoor living.
Hi Everyone Greg my not be able to join us form where he is but ill be back 10 min before it starts to chat and watch it live with you !
Really cool to see both perspectives... and totally different takes and views on things. Awesome duo!
Nice to see Greg’s videos and perspective of it all is up
Love the editing. It's going to be as good as Fowlers sling shot someday 😅
Never thought I'd see Folwer using a lighter
@@masonlowe7063 , if I remember right, he's only using it to seal cut ends of cordage on new tarp tie outs. Not for lighting a campfire.
I spent 10 months in northern Ontario and one of my bucket lists is to go to the Canadian Rockies just looking around in the back it's just beautiful
Having someone around to talk to makes a huge difference not only for helping each other out for getting things done but being lonely for human interaction does come into play
You got a new subscriber and fan and on to your next video
Looking forward to learning more about wild edibles, that is definitely a area I need way more knowledge in, can't wait.
If you are interested in learning about plants, I have over 140 plant videos for beginners, on my channel. Just chick on my logo, to see the videos.
fr man shit could literally save your life
Yes definitely... When society colapses thats the main key to survival... Knowing whats edible and whats not...
Me too! Really enjoy Greg since "Alone" love the season they were on.
Its just a lil guy so ill let him go... Love how he cares about what he catches
Yup
Care for nature, in turn it will care for you.
Letting the fish grow to be a meal for someone or something else.
Greg!! You were, hands down, one of my favorite alone contestants.
i like your personality,, you seem to be a humble and real,, you're awesome man
Greg has such a calm demeanor its awesome. He should take up voice over. He's super easy to listen to. I love this series with him and Zack!! I like the different points of view as well!!
You know what I like bout this channel? Its so relaxing, informative and fun to watch. Such a good editing skills. Marvelous contents. Just loving it
Greg, you come across as a knowledgeable, humble and sweet man. Keep cultivating your gifts sir.
What I love about your videos is it's in real time and you don't sugar coat it. When you're in the bush, mother nature's in charge, we have to respect/adapt and use what we she has to offer. Being able to stay calm, forge, collect and perform is all the success in survival. You are a true trooper and should be proud of your knowledge, it can save your life 👊
I love that comment thanks
Dude is literally in jeans and a t-shirt.
That’s metal AF
I go out camping in the outdoors & Hiking that way every time.
Got that ozzy Osborne 80s hair
@@Dab_Marino No, but if I did...I'd look better than you.
@@EKEACRES nice. Have a good morning sir
@@EKEACRES Whats the point in being a fucking douchebag? Your old ass sure got triggered pretty quick!
I love you Greg, you got a heart of gold, so kind, so caring, so hondsome stay safe, I just love , love love you more and more.
"Paved paradise, put up a parking lot" Did you say a mouthful there my friend (one of my favorites, by the way) I'm born and raised Albertan and am very connected to the Rockies too. This is my truth:
~The human spirit needs places where nature has not been rearranged by the hands of man~
Brook trout is literally my favorite fish. My Mom would always say that the little ones are the best eating!
Less likely to have parasites as well.
Hey Greg, just wanted to say I really enjoyed seeing you on Fowler’s channel. You seem a lot more down to earth and a little more relatable, don’t get me wrong I love Fowler’s channel and have nothing bad to say but it’s obvious he really likes the spotlight and his constant ads get a little tiring ( I respect that he’s making a living I’m just speaking from a viewer POV)it’s just nice to see someone who’s legit just trying to be the best outdoorsman he can without another agenda. We appreciate the both of you
LOL hope you realize Fowler kinda runs the channel
Of course I know that but I would think Greg reads these as well and I Didn’t think I said anything mean. Plus, you didn’t say you dissagree. Lol in all seriousness I really like Fowler’s videos, I actually live in Maine about an hour from him so I want him to succeed and show em what Maine’s made of, it just takes away a little with the constant plugs. I respect it, get your money bro, and I’ll still watch, it’s just a lil much to enjoy and takes away a bit from the experience. B
Mans gotta eat. Also sharing info on gear
I prefer the youtuber that I'm viewing to do an add in the video, rather than a random ad that I have no interest in.
@@blloodstone8762 yup ain't nothing wrong with making money while doing what you love. Happy for Fowler and Greg. I enjoy their interactions, just gotta ignore the ignorant toxicity. Gotta keep the channels alive somehow, this isn't cheap to make. It takes time and money
I love it when I keep discovering new bushcraft/survival channels. Looking forward to watching the rest of the series.
“I’m watching every episode”!!! Extreme adventure, Greg!
I wish you the best of luck pursuing your dreams Mr Ovens. You are very inspirational, determined, motivated and display the skills that every man should have or know. I will be following your adventures and teachings. Thank you very much for your dedication, patience, skills and knowledge.
I am watching every episode in the entire series including Greg’s.
Greg you’re the type of guy who would be there for anyone cause that’s how you are! Rock on and good luck with ur new show! Watching every episode cause I wasn’t getting enough with Zack’s videos.
This gonna be a great series..I'm shy and not computer savvy but my sons bought me hdmi to c cable thing so we can watch all our favorite youtubers on big screen😂🤣
Looking forward to more..
Why did you feel the need to say that?
Well because I admire those that put themselves out to be loved or criticized been wanting to something like this with my sons but we dont know what we would want to do..so we get together and watch and learn from others..any particular reason you have a problem with that..
TH-cam and chill
@Thelondonbadger my eyes are bright blue turquoise color however my daughter got right in my face with camera when she took it so I dont think she did anything.i dont know how to do filters & that kinda stuff..hope that answers your question never been asked that before.i know she bought blinded me😁
So glad I've found your channel. You were my favorite Aloner. Now I'm catching up on your and Zach's 30 days series. God bless.
Hey man. Just found the channel and instantly love it ! I’m 19 and live in Miami, FL. I wasn’t raised in the mountains but boy do I love being out in the Bush. I’ve spent some time out in Alaska throughout each season, done some hikes and have had a couple bushcraft sessions of my own during the winter time. I really wish I could do what you’re doing. It makes me so happy to see a feller enjoying the gift that is The Great Land. I hope that when I grow up, I can live somewhere on a big ranch, with mountains in the distance, rivers around every corner and plenty of Trees and animals to keep me company. Rock on, Mountain Dude ⛰🏔
“I watched every episode.” My husband and I love your adventures! Keep rocking Zach!
I’ll be watching all of you 30 day survival challenge videos too Greg and every video you put out for that matter
I would love it if you guys did more videos like this. You guys are a great team. I've already watched the 30 day challenge. It'd be cool to watch more. That casting is so graceful and wizard-like Greg.
I feel like this guy has done dry wall his whole life.
not so much in Florida, the mexicans under cut you all day and work 18hrs for peanuts.
Cosmetology is what I was thinking.
👻🥃🥃🥃🥃
@@parry4now Oh, definitely. He just reminds of a guy who does dry wall for a living.
The description says it all lol
@@M3D1C2121 I am not kidding you, i did not see that until just now!
Im watching every episode, its cool to see everything from ovens perspective it's like watching a series twice but threw another persons eyes
Great work, Greg and Zach! Loved watching y'all on Alone and you've both taught me a lot about surviving outdoors.
More men need to be like this, self sustainment is a dying art. When you're a father taking your kids out in the woods to camp and teach them survival skills are some of the fondest memories I had with my old man, it's a dying art. BC is gorgeous, wish I lived in the province except for the price of housing!
Loving every single episode from Hong Kong. Greg, you make me miss my Dad in the Yukon.
I'll never forget my survivaltrip in the Swiss mountains. Sadly my friend and red baret guidebuddy died 4 months after our last trip at home of a heart attack at a too young age.
But this brings back memories...and I'm thankfull for the time we spend there.💖💖
Nice to see Greg’s side of this adventure, I’m watching the entire season.
I’m watching every episode......Greg your so knowledgeable when it come to the local plants. Thanks for the great watch Greg and Zach
I've already watched the whole 30 day survival challenge and now just coming back to see it all over again because this is the best survival challenge I've seen to date and I've watched many I just would like to say that you guys are amazing together it's like it was meant to be ✌
I’m watching every episode... the Rockies seem like a paradise to live.
I live in the high Rocky Mountains...we have only two season.....one with snow just above 200 inches of snow and the second season is less then 580 inches of snow.
I'm watching every episode of this beauty!
That's some great looking living space!
I got the amazing opportunity to live in whitehorse Yukon. Was the best time of my life. If I can ever make it back I'm staying.
Thank you for sharing this adventure. So much I haven't to learn.
Thanks Ovens
“I’m watching every episode “. Great job Greg can’t wait to see what else your channel brings.
After watching the whole 30 day series and now rewatching your first episode, Greg, I'm noticing more and more that you let go wayyy more fish than Zach and they weren't part of the total fish count! Doesn't seem fair hahaha. You easily caught the most fish by more than a dozen! Good job Sir Ovens!
“I’m watching every episode” but I hadn’t watched any of yours and from one episode I know I was missing out man these videos are so laid back it’s great
Yuh were a constant in the TV series Alone!😍💜
“I’m watching every episode” this series is awesome! And you are so funny it kills me!
I could watch these videos ALL day long.
It gets harder and harder to break away from people and parking lots greg... pretty depressing sometimes...
"I'm watching every episode." These episodes make my day
Man. I would like to be in such a spot once in my life camping. This looks soo cool!
Im definitely watching every episode of you and Zachs 30 day Canadian wilderness survival. They never get old!!!
dude looks like he's been surviving all his life
I'd call that real livin'
Thanks for the laughs stranger!
hahahhahahahhaha you make me laugh
he needs only methadon and booze to survive.
@@Kai_Sau really?? people like u make me sick!!! So fuckin judgemental!!!!!!!!!
i love to watch someone who certainly knows what they're doing
this needs to be on netflix!
Rewatching this amazing series. Great work Greg!
"I'm watching every episode!" - And loving every one!
Thank you Greg and Zach...and so, the journey begins. ...
I've ben following Fowler for a long time and looks like I'll be seeing things from both sides of the coin this season. Great stuff guys, I seriously enjoy these videos
I’m watching every episode of Greg’s too, love the second perspective! Loved them all & look forward to Greg’s further adventures!
I'm about to move into a tent full time and looking at videos has helped. Hopefully looking at this man surviving for 30 days can give us some tips we can use. Fortunately we are in Georgia so the cold won't be an issue
The heat, imo isn't easy either. I hope everything went well.
From last two months I never go to sleep without hearing your real voice... You are a pure person.. Love you buddy.. I live same kind of place.. In my place I have borders with three countries Pakistan, china and india .. I am from kashmir. Yeah man I live in himalayas
I'm late in the game. I only just now finished "Alone". I so badly wanted you to never have to hang dry wall again. Stoked to see you doing what makes you happy. Subbed 💕
I'm watching all the videos with my kids, they love anything that has to do with nature.
This is so great. I watched you on Alone but had no idea you had a youtube channel. I stumbled across it and have been watching every video since. This is such great content, you truly love what you do and it shows.
Now that I am done watching all of Zach's episodes I am watching all of yours. Love seeing everything from your point of view.
This guy looks like Frank Gallagher if he was raised in the forest lol
I was thinking that too 😂😂
Take it easy🤣😅
I couldn't quite put my thumb on it, but you nailed it on the head! 😭
Following since day one...I always re watch your videos, they help me out in good days and even more in bad days ... keep up your good work 👏 greetings from Germany
Anyone else get a Bob Ross of the Bush kind of vibe from Ovens? Lol
Yes a soft spoken kind helpful soul, the kind that would give you the shirt off his back as well. I don't even know him, only from Alone show. He don't seem to be having any bad luck in these video's lol . Guess it is for no lack of nutrition and company.
Just the wording I was looking for
Greg is awesome. He's the best kind of manly, with natural 'wear and tear', has a natural honesty that's ... engaging .. pure? Unpretentious? Hes' not selling us. He's not educating us. We're just along for the journey with him. It's relaxing. Like being there. ... I'm at the opposite end of the socio economic spectrum, have nothing in common, and I still f-king love this man.
I've seen every video from the 30 day challenge. The camp site, the hunting groundhogs, the fishing the fishing, fishing.
Watching this series again. Makes me homesick so much. Love your videos especially this series
"I'm watching every episode." Nothing like smoking some fish on a cold rainy night!
The two of you did amazing on ALONE! Really enjoyed that season. Keep doing what you two do. There isn't many who can do what you two did.
I watched the whole series and really liked every episode. I didn’t make comments along the way so I am going back to put this comment on all the vids.
Good job with the videos and the survival stuff. It is kind of a shame that it took almost the whole 30 days to build the camp and then you had to leave.
Superb viewing, I thought the same about the shelter, but Greg has actually been back to it in one of his newer videos, so that was good.
Glad to meet Greg. Nice to see a different Point of view on the adventure.
The way he was casting had me dyin
Best casting motion ever 10/10
Hey, it caught fish!
bruh it looks like hes casting spells. hahahahaha
This will be the 2nd time I be watch this series. It's worth it
"I'm watching every episode." and I will watch it a couple more times
I'm on my 2nd viewing it was that good.
Hey Greg. What a beautiful place to leave everyday. Those grizzlies are simply amazing.
I’m lovin the ‘gondolias’ & ‘Lee & Perkins’ sauce. This guy roolz ✌️
All of my family and I are watching every episode. We look forward to each video. Thanks for sharing.
THE LAST SUPPER
Zach: "What a ya got in that marinade"?
Greg: "a little bit a Liam Perkins, and a couple other additives"
You give a great reality to bushcrafting.
man! it's like seeing Andy Serkis (voice actor of gollum) surviving!! this dude looks just like him! n_n
Subscribed!!
He sounds the tiniest bit like Kermit The Frog. I love him!!!
That is one optimistic dude, bet it would be a blast camping a few days with him!
“I’m watching every episode” no mater what
With everything s that happening right now.......watching you guys ..it takes the stress off work so it feels relaxed...and especially when you smoking and puffing joints.....so it's beautiful....
"I'm watching every episode" - Hope to see you on a future season of this or Alone.
Great 30-day challenge! I enjoyed every day out in the wilderness with you and Zach! Looking forward to your next series!
Definitely well done man loving more and more of these videos and lessons . I’ve been learning a lot and taking notes
These landscapes are to die for. You are a very lucky man, living your life at maximum
When you pulled the skinny tree and said it’s” it’s miserable out here”😂😅made me chuckle
it's just great, how do you spend time! it's just incredible and great. hello from the russian guy ... good luck😉😉😉👍👍👍🍺
