Alaska Canoe Trip with Girl in the Woods

[@amandajo1013]

Ive watches Brooke's view of thos trip too. You guys make me happy. We all should be so lucky to find such a perfect match for our lives. Wishing God's continued blessing on you amd yours

[@geemac7267]

The whole "bushcraft" thing on KZbin seems to have morphed into guys with unlimited funds showing off their expensive gear. I'm happy to see a channel that's more about the skills and the fun of the outdoors. Thanks for that.

[@Bushradical]

You are very welcome. I feel the same way. Some people have turned camping into a college level course with only one right way to do everything. Not to mention the cult of "gear".

[@cookscatapults]

Gee Mac72 hahahaha Totally Agree, Pretty Dang Awesomeness and refreshing

[@centauri9458]

That is absolutely right. Seems that happens with any activity, hunting and fishing started that I think. I've caught more fish from a cheap kayak or canoe than I did my bassboat.

[@jenniferrastley7337]

Love the videos from you and your wife.

[@josebarrio7538]

I love the back and forth between you and Brooke, this video always gets a few laughs out of me, feels like hanging out with old friends, I think your greatest asset is having a wife that matches you so perfectly, you guys are great, I watch your videos whenever I'm having a rough day, never stop what you do and thank you.

[@NewtonWashinton]

Awesome video on the river, gave me some good laughs too, Glad you don't seem to have any problems with Mr Yogi. 👍👍

[@wayfaringrider972]

Sharing the same passion with your wife is the greates gift... Happy Trails Dave...

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@larrysanxter6343]

Dear Brooke & Dave, I sooo enjoy your sharing your adventures together, just as much as I love your individual romps through the woods. I have watched this vid before but still enjoy the river trip. My wife and I have canoed the Des Moines River in Iowa as well as lots of Iowa lakes and ponds. I sold our Osagian 17 footer to my barber in Houston 10 years ago and definitely got my $400 out of it. Continue sharing and I will keep on watching. God's peace to you both.

[@hildegardkhelfa]

I very much enjoyed both versions, first the one from your wife and now yours. I wad laughing a lot about you two, gently teasing each other and enjoyed the beautiful trip.

[@KimRehley]

You two are so cute! I love this video, and need to watch more of yours as well now Dave. I've watched many of Brooke's with her and pup in tow, and especially love the little dark brown cabin and A-frame vids. Cannot wait to continue on with more of these!!!! Thank you for them 🤗🙏👍😍!

[@lorrainehelt976]

I love the fact that you two are yard sale people. Me too

[@Bushradical]

Love a good sale!

[@garyharmon1155]

What a beautiful place. You guys are too much fun. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. God bless.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Gary.

[@mheermance]

That canoe has character. Also, bringing limes was a good idea, you can never be too careful about scurvy.

[@ThatCreditGuy1]

Thanks for taking me along for this great float! I so much enjoy your videos.

[@TheRealChetManley]

Ok, you had me at the cold beer in the canoe on the river...awesome

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@pcz5233]

Your guitar pickin' in the background makes the video Dave. Nice touch...

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Paul!!

[@Eagleone9747one]

Thanks for taking us a long with the two of you. I've always enjoyed canoeing a quiet peaceful river, you got lucky the wind was in your favour.

[@Bushradical]

No joke.....we didn't feel it much on the water but if it were against us, I think we would have noticed it more , LOL

[@fishingcostarica]

It is always good to see you guys. It is meditation for me.

[@Bushradical]

Thats good, glad you enjoy our work! Thanks

[@kathleenlairscey5934]

JB weld seal those wholes. Love seeing this country, ya ll make fun. Thanks for showing us!

[@angelachristle2116]

It’s always fun to see the different versions the video that you both shoot! You guys are fun and cute together!

[@doriskovalcik442]

Just found this video and even though it’s a couple years old I enjoyed it so much. Been missing the videos from y’all.

[@George71964]

This episode was so good I had to watch it again after several months. What a great time on the river camping.

[@Bushradical]

it was lots of fun. I'm glad you liked it

[@karenzaller9659]

It was interesting to see the melt along the side of the river. Makes you wonder how long it will be before the river is half a mile wide. I have watched both of your channels and can say truthfully that I enjoy them both very much. Thanks to you both.

[@NewExperienceExplorer]

Thank you guys for starting to do videos again :D . I love your stuff, it's so down to earth and wholesome makes me wish i was back in the mountains of Transylvania :D .

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Adrian P!

[@vianonamitchell4114]

Lol...love it, you two are just so real, awesome!

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@markfoulds9917]

Great video of both you and Girl in the woods (I have watched hers too). You two are a great double act. Just fantastic scenery....utter bliss with some fine comedy moments too. Hugely informative video and living as i do in the UK, i am very jealous of these amazing spots.

[@jamescarryl9690]

Dave I did watch Brooks video first. I finally got t ok see the interaction between you and her. I must say. If ever two people were meant to be togeather, it's U two. I enjoyed this video very much. Please make another. Stay safe in the woods.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks James. We don't get up to this river often but its always a great trip.

[@ronhart8857]

Glad you guy's had a safe good trip down river, and that she was able to get truck and meet you safely at the old bridge! Thank you for sharing! Great job.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@barrywebber100]

Nice to see your film of this canoe trip Dave. It seemed more relaxed and enjoyable this time around. Thanks.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@abeach5420]

hehe ..... I missss all this banter from y'alls olll' days!! Our Brooke just does NOT take life laying down, hehe....she keeps ya on your toes Mr. Whipple

[@Markam248]

love the duct tape repair. beautiful area. thanks for taking us along.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks for watching. The duck tape worked perfect, and still does.

[@CliffManis]

Enjoying.. both...Good to see you two guys together....

[@grizzly22485]

Always fun watching the juxtaposed views of the two videos. Great trip, great fun, great video.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks!

[@proudchristian77]

Ty for bringing us, yeah !

[@Bushradical]

[@annbullard7657]

Thank you both! Wonderful!

[@Bushradical]

[@josephb7460]

Same trip that Brooke posted but totally different perspective. It was awesome. I enjoyed both videos. Good job Bushey.........

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@danhooper1056]

Had a great time with ya. Thanks again.

[@73FORGE]

Great time on the creek, crisp Rainier with lime, and your lady.. what more could you need! So relaxing, great video👍🏼🍺🍺

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Steve. Hey I just picked up a Hammond 2x60" belt grinder for $50 I'm stoked.

[@73FORGE]

That’s awesome bro! Such a sweet deal👍🏼

[@mn7803]

Lovely couple!

[@BushCraftBums]

Awesome video my friend! Looks like a great time! Thanks for sharing! Stay Blessed!

[@Bushradical]

Thanks....love the name BTW.

[@gkeyman565]

Tell her it was "Thunder", .... Rollin thunder........ Great video from both of you !!!! have a great day... whatever day it is when you read this

[@jeffnotti9932]

hey great to see the float from your perspective. too... well done both of you J

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Jeff.

[@davecassady7468]

Rainier beer! Walt Longmire would be proud!

[@loreneknight9755]

Ok, ol bushy, your making me nervous. Why are you carrying that big old canoe by yourself? I don't understand...LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. Your videos. I started watching Brooke & she led me to you. U 2 are such a joy to watch & learn from. And pretty darn entertaining!! Safe & extraordinary adventures for you & your loved ones. Lime in beer? Never tried it.

[@Bushradical]

You have to try it! Put a WHOLE lime ( crushed) into 2 beers....thats what you want.

[@paulmiller7276]

That little nippy bot is great for bringing to a football game filled with southern comfort lol😂

[@Lisa-cj6vx]

Great video as always! Thanks to both of you! God bless and stay safe!

[@Bushradical]

THANKS

[@lindasands1433]

What a pleasant video. Thanks

[@danielcronce6593]

Good video Dave and brook

[@Shawn_Richards]

Such a great relaxing video. 👌🏼

[@Strangernightg]

I tell you, I sure wish I could be out there living off the grid. Right now even if I wanted to I wouldn't be able because im in need of a hip replacement and I've been waiting for an operation for the past 7 years or so!!! Anyway, I'll keep following and learning from you as time goes on thank you for your teaching.

[@Bushradical]

I hope you get that done soon. Thats a long time to wait

[@dianevillemaire8286]

Great video. Love thesceney

[@Bushradical]

Thanks.

[@shawnr771]

Good video. Nice buy on the canoe. Rainer beer. I have been on the tour of the brewery years ago. At the end they used to let you drink all the beer you could drink. The catch was when you left to go to the restroom you were done.

[@Bushradical]

I love that story!!!

[@johnlong9534]

My first canoe was exactly like the one you have. It was a little too big for one person. On my first time using it, I went to the bank for a break and the front of the canoe went up on the bank. When I stood up, I was off balance. I was int he back and fell overboard. All my gear stayed in the canoe. I was the only thing to get wet. I am not sure why I am even posting this. Your videos remind me of old times, good times. Thanks. Oh yeah. Filming each other. You guys crack me up.

[@xfilion]

Lager and Lime. We drink that in pints in the UK. Great video both.

[@royramey5659]

Man you love lime. Going down the Yuba my friend ate it in his coleman and folded it in half.There were plenty of holes and i stuck dry twigs in holes,they swelled and we were able to make the last 8 miles.He's wife was with him.

[@Bushradical]

Dry twigs.....I'll remember that

[@justaguyoutside8409]

Lucky,Lucky Man. Brooke is not only your wife! She seems to be your best friend too!!

[@Bushradical]

you know it.

[@victorcastle1840]

Bushradical Great ! The only way , 54 yrs. for us in 2 wks. can't remember when I wasn't married. Got married as kids and grew up together :-) well almost. She was adult by law and I wasn't in Illinois.

[@Bushradical]

Congratulation!

[@Bushradical]

54 years is an accomplishment.

[@joycebarnett5813]

That was an amazing canoe trip down river. I thought it is cool how the trees just curl off the bank as the permafrost soil curls off. The beaver were fun to watch. Sure make a loud sound when they smack that tail on the water. I am so glad that you took me along on this trip. I really appreciate it. Where was Masie???? I missed her as she is usually always along. Well have a great day. Stay safe and happy trails.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Joyce. Masie was left at home....we thought about taking her, but ran out of room.

[@frasersgirl4383]

I love this video with you two together!!

[@eddiep5676]

You've got that Hank Jr. look going with the shades. Great video! Thanks for sharing your trip with us!

[@Bushradical]

There were several years of my life where I had Hank Jr's greatest hits in the console of my truck. That and Alabama, Steve Miller, And the Eagles.

[@eddiep5676]

I think we would get along pretty well.

[@bradstone9834]

That looks like a great time.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Brad. It was a good trip

[@alanwilliams5836]

I saw Brooke's video from this trip... have been waiting to see if you would include one Dave. Very awesome. I'll tell ya one thing for sure. There is nothing better than seeing the vs. videos that you guys do on your joint adventures. Gives us some hope... if you know what I mean. Imagine if couples always saw eye-to-eye on everything... how boring a life would that be!!?? But still... finding a mutual, self respecting manner to love one another through all things is a true gift given freely to you, and you guys really seem to choose it without consideration. Awesomeness!!! We are looking forward to any new adventures (dual or solo), gear reviews, etc... a pleasure being subscribed. Let us know when you guys return to MI... really enjoy vids from here at home.

[@Bushradical]

Thank you Alan. We appreciate the compliments. Brooke and I are both back in Michigan right now.......long story......you'll get to hear it soon enough.

[@andreaseberlein6924]

Wow, very very nice video. Thanks a lot for sharing this!

[@Bushradical]

Thanks !

[@gulfcoastoutdoors1]

Canoe awesomeness! If it’s glass. Get a kit from the auto parts. If it’s plastic. There are plastic kits too. Awesome canoe! Chris Is an good man to know.

[@Bushradical]

AH, you know Chris Wilkes too? Right on!

[@gulfcoastoutdoors1]

Lives a couple of hours away from me. We've met for trades a few times. Really have enjoyed his company the short times we have had.

[@mrnelson1911]

The water reflecting on Brooke's paddle was kewl.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Mark. I had here stay still for 20 seconds so I could get a good take of that shot.

[@gerardcaccioppo4539]

Very very nice what a nice truck that was cool I enjoyed that one I wish I was there

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@rickgreen9936]

good stuff, didn't have as much fun as you two, but watching this was the next best. keep the vids coming, thanks.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks RG!

[@democracyfirst5934]

Same canoe I use... they are awesome. One tough canoe.

[@mountainviews5025]

We love y'all best couple on KZbin thumbs up my friends

[@Bushradical]

Thank you my friend

[@chumleymoobs1021]

Well.....Thanks a lot Dave. Been watching your vids, particularly the Bark River tour. Something in my bones I guess wouldn't leave me be. Even though I had to dip into my gas/grocery money, two thirds to be exact. I ordered and received my first top tier knife. So I eat top ramen for awhile , couldn't be happier. Thanks, dig your channel. 👍

[@Bushradical]

Right on! What did you get? As for me, Ive never owned a Bark River Knife, but people sure like them.

[@chumleymoobs1021]

@@Bushradical picked up a springbok in 3V , roughly 4 inch drop point, black linen matte micarta. After having a cold steel bushman, condor bushcraft, rapala branded martiini clip point, all budget blades, the bark river feels like the Almighty made it just for me. One heck of a treat for sure. Thanks for responding, really enjoy your channel. Thank you.

[@Bushradical]

I saw those Springbok knives at Knives Ship Free....Its a cool design.

[@victorcastle1840]

Bushradical I haven't either, but I can't imagine it being better than that LT Wright knife you have . Yours looks like it is the just the right size to be a great, all around bushcraft knife.

[@Bushradical]

I love that knife. Not only is it a great knife, but LT gave it to me, so it makes me appreciate it all the more.

[@TheRocketbob22]

Mesmerizing . Your like a friend 7000 miles away.

[@Bushradical]

Thank you.

[@michealdraconis6179]

I look at those huge trees and can’t help thinking what an awesome home they would make

[@Bushradical]

They are great for cabin logs

[@michealdraconis6179]

Cabin nothing I’m thinking 2 story log home with a drive in basement lol basement for meat prep and food storage main floor for me loft with balcony for guests lol

[@johnbrock1602]

Always enjoy seeing Alaska

Thanks

you're welcome Worm Gitter

[@marciaolson4878]

You guys are a riot!!! Too funny! Keep up the good work!!!

[@underthecarolinasky2363]

I love it! You guys are just so real. What a fun trip. The canoe is cool -I wouldn't change a thing! lol. Cool to watch both vids from different angles too. Ya'll take care! -Mike

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Mike.

[@augustreil]

Excellent video. I have 2 - 17' Aluminum Grumman's, one is a double ender and the other is a flat back. I modified the hell out of both, especially the flat back by lowering the new seats which made them unbelievably stable, strengthening the motor mount to handle my 9.9 HP Evinrude and it is scary fast ! I made custom aluminum corner shelves with ledges any place I could put them, so my beer and other stuff won't slide off. lol. I used 1/8'' aluminum and 3/16'' stainless rivets for everything. Anyways, you can tell I really like canoes and your video ! Thumbs up.

[@Bushradical]

Thats awesome. A 10hp motor on a canoe sounds insanely fast!!! Does it get squirely with that much power pushing a canoe?

[@augustreil]

It is wicked fast and feels like the motor wants to get ahead of the canoe !

[@Bushradical]

I push a 16' deep V Smoker Craft with a 1957 Johnson 18 hp....and with just two people in the boat it will put her right up on step. And that boat weighs 7 times as much as a canoe.

[@augustreil]

I love those Smoker Crafts. I have a 14.5' Starcraft with a 25 Johnson that I also modified with transom strengthening and hollowed out bench seats for storage. She does 29mph on GPS with 3 guys.

[@outandaboutwithpb9616]

One of my best memories of Alaska was a 3 day canoe trip down the Copper R from Chistochina to Chitna.

[@waynewoodward2313]

You guys do it right! Appreciate it.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@novastones8914]

Thanks for sharing ..nice nife.,jackpot landscape..bro

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@KAStodgell]

Love the limes. Canoe is perfect. Love your bickering. I love to eat lemon or lime with a bit of salt. I am a fan of both of your channel.

[@kevintulak9987]

Nice to see your version of the trip, I see Brooke had the decency to not streak in the back ground of your video like you did in hers. Looks like it was great time. Thanks for sharing.

[@Bushradical]

You know she edited her video too and could have left that out...........but she didn't. LOL It was a good time for sure.

[@mickeywilsonbushcraftandsu2513]

Nice and peaceful trip it seemed. Very nice video. For the $75 you paid for the canoe and that trip id say it was beyond well worth the money. Cool the wind was working with ya. Nice yard sale find man I too am a concrete finisher by trade. Thanks for sharing and a huge thumbs up. Now I am going to go see Brooks version lol.

[@Bushradical]

Hey Mickey, Thanks for the comment! What kind of concrete work do you the most. With me it seems like we end up doing a lot of mono slabs.

[@cookscatapults]

Hahahaha that was an Awesomeness Adventure .....Thanks for having us along for the Ride....Super Coolio

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@alexanderweaver9182]

Great canoe trip, Dave! I would love to find my $75 dollar canoe. I have a kayak but a canoe would be more fun and able to carry the camping gear I'd need. Someday I will make it to Alaska...beautiful country! Hi to Brooke from Virginia.

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@Woodenarrows]

Nice trip Dave. Cool seeing both sides (yours and Brookes). That old Canoe is a wreak but hey, it still floats and no worries about grounding it on the gravel bars :-)

[@Bushradical]

Good point! its like a built in feature!!! "run this boat right up on the rocks.....you'll never know anything happened". I like the way you think.

[@RidgeRunner5-]

Nice video Dave, nothing wrong with the canoe. Thought I'd see some fishing.

[@heathschwab]

Wow I no that was fun. It's been to many years since I've just went down river like that. I've went canoe Jon boat tube all's great o pontoon boat yes big river. But ide love to again just can't do the canoe due to my disibilty. But job boat and motor I'm ready. Lol. But I did subscribe to your channle check it out. I've watch your wife's channle for while now. Didn't no you had one. Sorry. But I read your bio and I'll deff be checking out videos. I may learn something I'm shur I will. Y'all have a great week and thanks for sharing a amazing trip. God bless

[@Bushradical]

Thanks Danny

[@leliadeland2016]

You guys are so cute and found Brooke on another one of your videos and i subscribe to her too. 😃👍🏽

[@stevenandbobthedog]

I watched Brooke's video on this, I've been waiting for your upload :)

[@marciaolson4878]

Me too, just to compare who really does talk more, Dave or Brook!!!😂😂😂😂

[@kittymorse7402]

Enjoyed.

[@mrnelson1911]

Nice relaxing music to accompany your nice relaxing video.

[@Bushradical]

Don't listen too close to the guitar music its full of mistakes.

[@kodeywhitewolf4056]

A fun canoe trip adventure Last time for me was in Maine down the Saco for 6 day when I went to camp as a kid Lots of fun

[@Bushradical]

awesome

[@josephlawrence6873]

Awesome video I would love to take a trip down that river. Reminds me of my hunting trips on grindstone island in the middle of the St. Lawrence river.

[@Bushradical]

It was a fun float.

[@williamblakeley3744]

Thank you for the beautiful toar down the lake its really likeable ..

[@Bushradical]

Thanks

[@ksmitty7277]

Cant beat a rainier and some fishin with the ol lady. awesome buddy. all the way from washington where they made that and a staple of fishing

[@Bushradical]

Right on!

[@farrenbeaulieu6200]

Love you guys. Wanna meet you halfway. I'm in yellowknife! 😆 lol

[@davekibbey7944]

Thanks for taking us on a nice trip down the river. Got to see it from the front with Brooke and now we get your views from the stern. It makes you feel like you're sitting right in the middle, squeezed in next to the bike. Like the ol' Ford. Does that have the 300 six cylinder? Great , dependable pickup.

[@Bushradical]

Hey Dave, yes it does have a 300 six!

[@gosmoothgolight7567]

It's "double the fun" to see a Girl in the Woods video from Bushradical's point of view! (Or is that a Bushradical video from Girl in the Woods' perspective?) And I just watched Zippy and Dippy with a Club Wagon kinda like the one I just bought for my next trip to Michigan! Love your canoe, sir ... thanks for sharing the river trip! God Bless :)
