1 - Winter Camping in Algonquin Park Canada

[@JamesLewis-ho7uy]

you are truly the best bro. Your spirit is an example to us all. You smile more in 10 minutes then I do in a year! You go out there and grab life by the horns and find true joy in it. You sir are my Yoda!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Scott! I truly appreciate it.

[@adlacz7691]

Your genuine gleeful happiness at being outside is fun to watch.

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Marissa. I had a wonderful time.

[@Hivetown]

At home social isolating during this Covid-19 situation. Dreaming about camping and came across your channel. What a treat!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Happy Camping Tom.

Before even looking at the comments, I was just going to say the same thing!

[@VistarCreative]

Exactly! What a genuine dude! I want to hang out with him!

[@deemoe7301]

I agree this guy is awesome!

[@SHADOWBOXERBAYBEE]

I hope you NEVER lose that expression of completeness. To not want for anything is a blessing!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

It sure is a blessing!

[@ianschulze1461]

Nothing like the warmth of the fire and that distinctive crackling sound. Couple that with the peaceful nature if the woods/Forrest and you're all set.

[@khshoaib737]

You look & act so simple, real & humble. You bear positivity in your every move. Pretty calm to see

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Have you ever been Winter Camping? What's your favorite meal to cook over the Fire? On Day 3 video I will be grilling up a steak, I think that's my favorite campfire meal.

[@AcousticNRG]

steak :]

[@waterdude21236]

Cowboy steak right on the coals

[@ryderclashable]

I love bringing couple little game hens, carrots, onion, spices and making pot of chicken soup! Soups my favorite for winter trips!

[@MrIanJHoy]

Have you heard of cooking in a pit all day, like a pig roast? You put coals underground, wrap your roast in foil and bury it all day. If ground is frozen, then last day of camping, dig out thawed dirt underneath where your fire was. Could be a fun challenge?

[@HurlgoatHiker]

@@MrIanJHoy My old neighbours use to do that, found it fascinating! I would take it upon myself to try that but you'd need a few hungry people to help eat it all. Cheers.

[@jannickrodrigue3591]

You are definitely exactly where you're supposed to be. Your constant smile tells everything !

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I'm at my best when I'm camping.

This was so cathartic to watch! And I appreciate the extra effort you went through to get good shots to build the "atmosphere" of the video!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Cat, it was fun working on these videos.

[@tomwaters7392]

Your happiness and general appreciation for the outdoor inspires me bro

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Happy Camping.

[@mikeboyer860]

some 34yrs ago i spent 2 weeks canoeing and portaging the canoe between the lakes in the park, one of the best trips of my life. glad i'm not the only one who uses welding gloves like that

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Hi Mike, wouldn't go camping with out a pair of welding gloves, makes dealing with the food and fire so much easier. Do you still get out once in a while? Happy Camping.

[@mikeboyer860]

i do alot of hiking didn't do any overnights last year

[@AdventureswithAdeel]

Algonquin is awesome in summers and winters. Good videos, keep them coming.

[@JasonFerguson1283]

I love solo camping. Never tried the snow but the rain is definitely not my favorite. Always love the feeling of just going... settling into a comfortable campsite and lately writing some songs, cooking and just enjoying the beauty and being with the flora and fauna. Great video!! Thanks!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Thanks Jason, Time alone is very important to me, it's times like these that let me release what's truly important to me in life and what makes me happy.

[@fourbyfourer]

There's nothing better than being out with nature.

Grilled cajun salmon with roasted potatoes topped melted butter and cheese and Fork my favorite of camping is cooking on the bbq. Nice setup well prepared i love cozy fire 🔥 super

Beautiful shot going over that bridge 2:11

[@HistoriesPurpose]

So beautiful, thank you!

[@potatothorn]

so peaceful in the winter wonderland thanks for taking us with you

[@Utahsnowmen]

An idea for you. Replace the rope on your sled with a 6 ft 1 1/2 “ wood dowel. Attach clips to each end for quick disconnect to your sled and to a belt on your waist. This lets you walk without having to hold your sled & stops the sled from running into you on hills.

[@coryaughtman157]

Canada is so beautiful

[@TheJoker-wk5jn]

Great to see him smile throughout the video, it portrays the positive attitude in him👍🏻👍🏻

[@northernembersoutdoors1045]

Hello my outdoors friend, thank you for sharing your fine video. You are a well organized bushcrafter. Thanks to the fast forward function on your camera, you were able to complete your chores pretty quickly. You did a wonderful job of filming the serene beauty of the Canadian winter. You be safe out there and don't forget to have fun. See you on the next one. 🤗

[@thepeckfordfam9936]

I never realized how much we Canadians have an accent until I watched your videos haha makes me wonder if I sound like that too and just don’t hear it 🤣🤣🤷🏻‍♀️

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Hi Kaitlyn, I never thought I had an accent until I hiked in the USA, there everyone asked me if I was from Canada, and I thought I sounded just like them haha

[@thepeckfordfam9936]

Lol! Yeah most Americans can tell as soon as we open our mouths that were Canadian 😂 Great video btw!! I used to winter camp near Tea lake in Algonquin, I used to live in Granton (just above London) and I would drive about 5 hours to camp there lol! Now I live literally 30 mins from there and I haven’t gone once 😩 I should totally go this year haha!!

[@HurlgoatHiker]

Do it!! Happy Camping.

[@OldGoatintheWoods]

Boy, what a trip to be on. Totally agree about protecting the batteries, went to use one that had been fully charged & watched the % go from 100 to zero in seconds. Talk about disheartening. Glad to see another KZbinr who likes a high-backed chair! Fantastic to sit in after a long day & take things in, or to just let it go. :)

[@michelbliek_2148]

I watch the first 80 seconds and the only thing I see is a big smile haha. now I'm going to watch the rest of the video...

fish and beer made me jealous. will have to try that kind of beer

[@mikefoehr235]

I have done winter camping but not as crazy as you. I was with my dad at our hunt camp in the winter...was in the late 90s, dad had two snowmobiles and we drove in 35 kms from Morin village which is near Shining Tree. We were there in February and one morning it was -45...the trees were cracking like crazy when I was sitting in the outhouse. I dont mind the winter camping with a nice camp and wood stove. The best meal I ever cooked was homemade soup simmering on the wood stove most of the day. We all enjoyed a cold beer and bowls of hot soup.

[@HurlgoatHiker]

That sounds like a lot of fun! I love the sound of the trees cracking, I often wonder how many people even know that trees make that sound when it's so cold, you have to be amongst the trees to hear and experience that in bitter cold temperatures. Soup on a cold day like that is probably the best meal one could have. Cheers and Happy Camping.

[@GamjaWinnipeg]

Inside of the tent looks really cozy. I really want to try winter or fall camping. There is something about the cold and being alone in the wild. You can think amd meditate and be grateful. One day hopefully. Cheers, brother!

[@kevincoulter2239]

Cornelius, Awesome video. Don’t do much winter camping but might now! Looks great and I think I’ll be getting sled. A whole new experience. Thanks so much!
