You both seem to have a great understanding of each other, really great to see this , thanks for putting up this video. 💯

[@fionalewis3121]

You guys are the rain and snow king/queen

[@ashburn1606]

Nice seeing Victoria back again, the fire absolutely awesome and SMOKING even in wet condition,i give it 10/10 for Abel..thumbs up both for great effort to keep all trash in rubbish bag giving mother nature clean.👍👍

[@AbelandVictoria]

Yeah this was a tough camp. Thanks 😊

[@pattybates5717]

Lol. I know this was a yucky uncomfortable camp for you two , but at the same time, has to be one of the best camping vids ever. Anyone who has ever camped gets how hard a wet fire is especially when the smoke follows you everywhere. You are the king and queen of tolerance - many other camper youtubers would be cussing at the conditions and it’s refreshing watching people who really enjoy camping and being together. 👍 all round

[@AbelandVictoria]

Hahaha it was definitely one of the most uncomfortable camps but it’s always fun to get out. Overcoming the conditions and managing the pain is all part of the satisfaction 😂

[@NicholasMcClintock1]

Mate, that must have been tough going with the rain and wet clothes. A good fire and food goes a long way to making it more tolerable, I loved how you addressed how some people obviously have No idea about the Northern and Southern Hemispheres or what that means for weather patterns. The Winter/Snow videos are much more visually striking than a rain video, however the effort to achieve comfort is far more apparent, which also makes for great content to watch, the two of you certainly worked Hard in this one - Great Vid!

[@AbelandVictoria]

It certainly was a hard camp!! Snow is way more manageable and fun but one thing we can’t control is the weather 😅 glad you enjoyed the video. Victoria

[@lizvickers7156]

I love being out in the rain getting wet. There is nothing better than getting wet, coming home, getting dry and getting all cosy inside. Give me rain and winter all day long over summer. I hate summer, although we don't get many summers in the UK. We are having a heat wave at the moment. 28c-32c. Too hot for me. It's humid as well. Great video as always. Here's to the next.

[@AbelandVictoria]

It sure is fun and always nice to come home and get cozy!! Wow that sounds hot 🥵 we are looking forward to some summer swimming though as it warms up here

[@Lalunabreeze]

Rains ok but I just don’t getting wet with my clothes on. Same goes for sleeping can’t get comfortable with clothes on.

[@elizabethroy1869]

It’s lovely to see you guys making memories with each other, and having awesome adventures together!!!!

[@kenfox22]

Smart. A tarp by tent. Ingenious. Vicky is a great woman

[@davidneal6920]

The landscape of the central North Island is unmistakeable. Very nice. I love camping and walking in the central North Island. Great camping drills 🇳🇿

It does look like it but this is the South Island 😀

concave and convex ..You two were made and ment to be together for ever and ever.Cheers!

[@dhornsbycultus]

Love the banter. And great vid, as usual. The best part is that when you get home, you have a hot bath/shower, and it takes your mind off the wetness of the camp. See you next vid.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Very true

[@tombouman4485]

You guys are a blast! Love the banter, comments, you obviously have a great sense of humor. And your priorities are spot on, shelter, fire, beer, food! Definitely my kind of camping, and you Abel, are indeed the “Fire King”. Cheers from Michigan!🍺

[@AbelandVictoria]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@sandicoppins]

Abel and Victoria, I had to go and put on jumper watching this, I was so cold seeing all the rain lol. You guys are crazy and cool

[@AbelandVictoria]

It was pretty cold and miserable still trying to warm up 😅 Victoria

[@Steve19055]

I love the way you sit in that chiar refusing to move anywhere while your’e chewing that burger like a hamster while having all the smoke in your’e face🤣 it just shows that not everything is perfect and that makes it more enjoyable to watch☺️

[@fionalewis3121]

Absolutely brilliant footage of the walk in. It really is like theirs a cameraman.

[@oxfordblaze4392]

One of the best videos out there on how to survive cold wet conditions and get a fire going to boot!! Sounds crazy, but this will probably save some people from dying of hypothermia!!

Thanks

Hello Abel and Victoria, I was feeling the cold watching you both.But you both made the very best of the situation and that's what counts.I enjoyed watching you brew your coffee and you certainly love you coffee and it impressive to watch you make it while camping.Thank you for a great video 🇨🇦❤️

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thank you so much 😊

[@mitchelldomanski549]

Yep I like the spot it's cosy just off the track. It's what I would have picked. Good job team NZ.

[@sharonr7500]

I just love the 3 channels from the South Island. Victoria and Abel; Tony and Bruno from A B Camping and Cathy from OT. 3 different styles and 3 who face the extreme elements. I realise how lucky I am to be able to follow your adventures in all the elements mother natures gives us. Thank you both you are such a joy to watch I find myself responding emotionally to all of the challenges you face on each trip. Many thanks for posting such interesting camping videos.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Yea it’s cool to see New Zealand like this. I like watching the vids too. Cheers

[@rodrickcox8798]

They are very adventurous go to sleep watching this

[@sweynforkbeardtraindude]

Extreme elements😂.

[@chuffa1130]

I like you guys don't hold back with a little rain, most of us have to watch you troop through this adventure, those "buuurgers" looked epic and I bet even tasted better if you're hungry after that hike in the rain thank you for sharing

[@AbelandVictoria]

Cheers

[@kennethtennant5398]

Hey, young man, you got one heck of a partner I've been watching for months or too. Now you guys are outstanding period but you don't have much snow over there on. Take care your friend from Michigan.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Hey yeah wish we got more snow I love snow camping

[@RogerJones-ez7ez]

Absolutely the best videos of wild camping ❤

[@fionalewis3121]

Yep opposite climate to us in Christchurch lolol. You 2 have great, watchable persona's. Intelligent and funny and knowlegable and interesting.

Another epic firewood chop montage. Get a bow saw and build the legend.

[@itsmee535]

Best video to date !! #1

[@ScottRauber]

Love every second!! TY!!! Since you regularly use the word "mission", I have to mention my familiarity of the word mission when I took my 2 grandsons outside and their mother asked where we were going.....I stalled and then replied....We're going on a Mission. They were 2 and 3 that day over 12 years ago. Every time they saw me, they asked....Poppy can we go on a mission, and I obliged. Then a cousin asked, then a teammate, then another and over 100 kids have been on a mission since 2011!! TY for going on a mission!!

[@AbelandVictoria]

Hahah nice. More missions

[@fionalewis3121]

Espresso machine lololol now that would be an interesting watch.

[@Werkar27]

Amazing camp as always. Like always, I watch your vids late at night and always need a snack, cause I get a craving watching you guys cook those juicy burgers😅

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thanks for watching!

[@1167rover]

I'm cracking up watching the smoke scene, you guys are TROOPERS!

Hello from Scotland. talisker is lovely,but you should also try a tamnavulin or Jura or Laphroag in front of a camping log fire,doesnt get much better than that. Great upload,Looking forward to getting away again here when the midges die off.

[@AbelandVictoria]

I got the device called thermacell stopped all the bugs it was amazing. Thanks for the suggestions

[@rachelfogarty4786]

Loved the birds singing in the morning. Just the best sound. ❤ I often take my stovetop espresso maker camping/tramping. Bit bulky but totally worth it. Thanks for another cool vid guys! 👍

[@AbelandVictoria]

Morning was nice. Tough camp though I promise Victoria I’ll take her on a Sunny camp soon

[@lynbigmore1597]

Loving the transparent snow!! Another great vlog from you both. everyone deserves a Victoria she's a canny companion. Loved the controlled violence with the wood-breaking. Thanks, both real entertainment

[@sanjlakhanpal5017]

Mate if you put some rocks or wood to make a high wall behind your fire then the wind wont blow the smoke at you. Hope that helps. Luv yr camping vids.

Haha... You mad buggers. I love how you take lots of comfy gear and luxuries. One luxury I'd add to the mix would be a hot water bottle. It's my favourite for when I'm staying in a busy hut. It means I can sit outside and avoid people. Hope to see you up the Cobb sometime. Ha! 18:45. Abel and Victoria outed as "Round Earthers"... And, once you've tried Tuimato, you might not go back to Heinz.

No doubt you will see us in the Cobb at some stage. Cobb is definitely my favourite area

You need a Silky Saw. They fold up nice and have a nice long saw. Much better and easier than the short saw. Love the channel!!!

Hey this is a silky. It’s the pocket boy outback. It’s getting a bit dull now. I might upgrade to a bigger none folding one
