4 Weeks Mountain Truck Camping Honeymoon - First Night Boondocking

First night camping off grid on the way to the Pacific Northwest. Beautiful weather, logging roads, Fox invasion at campground, cooked leftovers after giving up on the big meal plan. We camped outside of Hinton Alberta on crown land where the river meets the road.

Used your idea of back yard camping with my 5 y/o daughter. Getting her use to sleeping in a tent. Then it's off to the woods. Thanks for your video.

[@magen2271]

Tim Stretton Tried this last night and sadly our daughter didn’t take it well, she’s 4. She loved camping when she was 1-2 years old. Now I think she’s older and more aware of what scares her. We made it for a couple hours and then had to come back in around midnight. We just used our foam mattress topper over sleeping bags and we were nice and cozy. I hope she gets better about this. We will try again. I hope your attempt goes better than ours. Nothing like a camp fire and a tent.

[@ritajimmie3361]

Did that with my daughter and grandkids in my back yard

@@magen2271 No worries. Your daughter will like camping again once she's a little bit older. Keep spending time outdoors & she'll associate the outdoors with happy memories.

Cold outside but warm hunkerdowns at night no doubt after a yummy dinner. I just LOVE the smell of bacon cooking in the morning with the welcome smell of coffee brewing. Mmm... Our anniversary is Aug 7th. We just had our 52nd wedding anniversary this month in 2022. So many wonderful times together with family and friends. We treasure these memories as I'm sure you do as well. You certainly had an epic peaceful honeymoon. Even the fox was drawn to your camp to check out the happy vibes, OR to go shopping. These YT videos has certainly preserved your sweet memories.

[@cdiddy609]

Loved this video.beautiful camping spot, got to see a fox (that was cool, glad he didn't give you too much grief). And I know too well how quick a meal plan can change when the wife changes her mind. You took it with great stride 🤙🏼 cheers to the both of your Steve. ❤ Keep hunkering

[@joeubina2348]

@@noreason2701 Possibly. In GA a fishing license including trout stamp is $15. Rod and reel combo with line on the reel at Wal-mart - $20. A few lures, hooks, sinkers, bait is another $20. Cheaper than that boat he built. I like what he's doing and his videos are great, so to each his own, but when I see a river or lake, I just gotta fish!

I realize you're in the mountains and the elevation is of course gonna give you cooler weather but Wow, we would be sweating our asses off camping this time of year! Looks beautiful out there!
