[@lisaweddle7363]

Videos keep getting better and love you sharing the REAL issues of camping. ❤

[@jimbob-robob]

Wouldn't have thought white was a good camping colour, even for a sleeping bag... wot with the mud and all that...

[@craigmichaelcurtice3013]

The only thing you've done wrong and it's a critical mistake if you're going to take the time to cook outside in a camp dude you have to flame broil the meet The taste is 10 times better bro come on now Detroit charity recording artist Craig Michael Curtice

Pickles are nasty on a burger I don't understand how people like that

[@SongwriterPlayer]

I love to be there with you on this adventure, I love extreme weather camping, it really tests your abilities and that satisfied feeling of beating Mother Nature! I am jealous!

[@annenamishia9902]

Enjoying this one. Sorry you hurt your back. My left leg is almost 2 inches shorter than the right. Rods and screws after turning a flip and landing on my concrete floor in the house. Broke the left hip and femur. Well after 5 years of it slowly getting shorter my right hip is in pain constantly. Over use. Now I don’t know what to do. Scary. I know how you feel Abel. Rest and stay warm.

[@kevinmccarthy7195]

I recommend a hip replacement. I had one last July and had only mild incision pain and was walking a few months later.

[@user-bd1yj6qo6v]

Yes you are a legend! Appreciate your sarcasm ! Take care! Love the weather! I can smell that coffee from Oregon

[@alanblackley4906]

thanks Abel love what you do

[@marcusevans5014]

These films have it all. Terrific blend of scenery, quality equipment testing, demonstration of technical skill and good humour combined with the thoughtful camera work - make for compelling viewing.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thanks. I try to have a little bit of everything.

[@spc3461]

What a fantastic video, Abel and Victoria. You are my favorite camping channel on KZbin. You always have such amazing scenery and exciting stories. This video was no exception, as you camped in a snowstorm and a rainstorm. You are awesome!

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thank you appreciate it

[@merrymary5603]

Back in '81 I made grilled cheese bacon and tomato on whole wheat sandwiches for myself. Great for breakfast or lunch. My fav food for 43yrs. Yummy

[@sannawald824]

Beautiful video, but I wouldn`t mind a trip in good weather and sun, from time to time it would be nice to see NZ in sunshine! Surely you would enjoy it too! Wish you a full recovery for your back!

[@brimac58]

Good job from the USA👍

[@user-ce9qk9sy9p]

Another great video, hope your back is better. Even when you are in pain and are in rainy, snow conditions you always find a reason to smile and make the best of a situation.😊

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thank you. Hard to dampen my spirts when I’m up there and it’s snowing

[@Sarahr98998]

The ASMR of it all.....amazing

[@noahfisher4163]

Nobody can be a legend quite like Abel

[@louiesmith4349]

Na I love getting home from work and seeing a video has been uploaded makes my day 🐐

[@scotthatch8862]

When your back starts giving you problems it is amazing how it affects so many things it affects. Take care of your back what ever it needs or you will regret it later in life. I am speaking from experience. You are making great videos, keep up the good work.

[@sultanabran1]

as a middle aged man with lower back pain, i concur. have to keep those stretches going and keep the back muscles loose. lower back pain sucks.

[@trailslug893]

Way to hang in there. I've had this exact same issue in the lower back and it's no fun. I really enjoy your videos and the beautiful scenery of NZ and your vocabulary is a treat for an American. Keep up the great work and thanks again for taking us along on your adventures.

[@fionalewis3121]

Love that sleeping bag, amazing

[@elisesmith3596]

Always a great day when there’s a new video of yours out. Hope your back is better!

[@sda141]

Oh boy, I’m feeling your pain. I deal with back, neck and nerve pain often. I’m not brave enough to camp anymore. Thanks for keeping it real 😀

[@AbelandVictoria]

It sucks. I’m going to be very careful now

[@julielennox5482]

I love watching your videos and I don’t even like camping! We’ve had enough rain here in the UK recently, but you always stay so cheerful in spite of all the weather.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Hey. I like camping in rough conditions. Makes it more exciting for me. Cheers 😀

[@25Sweetchocolate]

Thanks for another great "rainy" camp video! Hope your back feels better soon.

[@fionalewis3121]

Love your camp, Abel. All the ingredients are here, stunning scenery, cozy camp, inclement weather, and the burgers. Oh the burgers, bacon, cheese, pickles, couldn't imagine any better! Sorry for your back pain but at least you have some good meds in case the pain worsens. Take care, thanks a bunch Abel for another superb camp!

[@shirleenwest2067]

Also you can add hot chili with beans, and fire roast tomatoes. If you want. Or separate everything for multiple different meals. I hope that you enjoy them. 🎉

[@MegaSusanc]

I hope you're doing better with your back Abel. Awesome video you looked warm and cozy this trip even though you had all that snow. Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing and for all the hard work and time you put into your awesome adventures. They are pretty awesome. GOD BLESS YOU KEEP ADVENTURING.

Beautiful setup ❤

[@AbelandVictoria]

[@lbccarpediem]

Just started watching your videos. I really enjoy them. I am just beginning to get into camping. Starting out small and learning. Nothing rugged like you do. Beautiful scenery. Hope your back gets better. Be safe.

[@fionalewis3121]

Loved this camp, am watching from bed and when it snowed, I actually felt cold lol. pulled my blankest up around me, GREAT video, LOVED it, thanks.

[@elaineososki1159]

I hope you’re feeling better.😮

[@seanchristie9146]

omg you can pick the days but you can handle it keep it up

[@francispajutan7280]

Nice sound of rain/snow touching the tent, good editing, the burger, and the back pain added drama. Plus that accent ❤ New Subscriber here!!!

[@michaelsullivan7183]

Sorry you hurt your back . And still you put out a great video

[@carlavanooik]

Abel, you are my hero!!! The places you go are fantastic, they take a lot of work and strenght from you. And the views you let us enjoy them too. And how strong you are, I think its mindblowing. 😊😊 You edit work is soso cool. You have Dutch roots and Viking roots. And you know Dutch people are tall, well build, strongmen! And your beautiful red hair is unique too., Redheads are very special people on their own way. Maybe a little bit exxagerated, I think not.. It was a fantastic video... Take good care of your back and body. And take very good care of Victoria.

[@lorrainereid6294]

Hi abel sorry your back was in pain but you kept on going great video as allways love the scenery 😊

[@geauxgrl6464]

[@Fantazia11]

Ahh I know how it feels to pull your lower back and it's agony. You are a trooper Abel and smashed this camp as always 💪 Get yourself home and rest yourself for a few days 👍

[@merrymary5603]

Love when you mention Tony... he is the reason hubby and I subscribed to you... glad we did. Try to show more scenery. Thank you for doing what you do.

[@AbelandVictoria]

I’ll add in some more scenery shots 😃 thanks

[@RockNSportz62]

[@AbelandVictoria]

[@bettydavis1506]

Bummer ‘bout your back😩BUT what a thrilling camp with varied weather experiences👍🏻

[@AbelandVictoria]

Cheers I’ll recover

[@jeffwilson3865]

Two more of them monster burgers double cheese and bacon 👍👍. Praying your back gets to feeling better soon. As always great video.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Yes! Thank you!

[@philgibbons7108]

Wait till you getinto your 40s mate.I am a trucker and always suffering with my back but iignore the discomfort,the best thing is to keep moving gently or ifits too back a cold bath.Great video dispite the injury.Take careof yourself buddy👍

[@tinaorr2723]

OMG Abel - you did so much better than I would. When I hurt my lower back I am sore/stiff for at least 3 days... and that's at home, not out in the tops like you did! Although you were in excruciating pain, you did an awesome job! Great ideo, awesome to see the snow, although I watched with a blanket around my shoulders LOL. Take care, and I hope your back gets better soon!

[@user-dg1me5km1i]

Очень интересно, спасибо❤

[@johnnycaldwell6471]

❤

[@CazSmith]

I like the tarp over tent set up, plus a chair combo. I think comfort is essential. I liked the video. Good luck with growing the channel.

[@allaboutthefun]

Hope u get well soon.

[@rfncharlie]

Used to do lot of camping in Wales and Scotland,watching you makes me yearn to be young again.keep it up

[@BigV96220]

your never to old if you feel the yearn do it again your soul is telling you something🥰🧡

[@JnnnL]

Hot water bottle on your back will help relax you back muscles. But when you get home use a heating pad on your back.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Been have baths feels good

[@markthomas2436]

You really know and utilize tarps when camping. You know where to set up, and try new set ups. You're really talented in camping, and you are certainly NOT afraid of the cold weather.

[@patdayton3219]

Yeah over here in the US there's a phenomenon called thunder snow. Could be elsewhere as well. When we have huge snow storms that's when that occurs. Truly awesome

[@juleesadventures7925]

Hi Abel Brilliant video Brilliant tarp set up and those burgers looked amazing ❤🇬🇧

[@AbelandVictoria]

Cheers. It’s a good spot. Want todo a full blown winter camp there

[@juleesadventures7925]

You should do a 2 night video video that would be Brilliant

[@lynnekolar8419]

I sympathise with the back, I had lumbago for three weeks recently, frustrating for people like us who like to be active. I hope yours heals up quicker. I watch your videos because I dream of wild camping in beautiful locations.

[@jhh243]

Hope your back feels better soon brother! Way to power through it!

[@AbelandVictoria]

I hope so too

[@TamaraLR]

Sorry you were hurting so bad..☹️😞 I’ve got lower back pain, I have to lie down to get the pressure off the vertebrae…and sometimes I bring my legs up to my chest to help open up the vertebrae…it does help, so maybe if it happens again try what I do..good luck and hope you feel better soon..love watching your channel..😁👍🏻👍🏻

[@jeffsawyer8468]

Hello Abel from Chicago. You're a class act acknowledging Tony from AB Camping as he acknowledged s you. Great video. God bless you and your family. ❤

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thanks 👍

[@user-fi1cl5pv1l]

Abel yet another Very enjoyable vidio 😊,sitting here in 40 degree heat it’s great seeing the first snow falls of the season makes you feel a little cooler ,a man of my own hart burgers and coffee.Also enjoyed seeing some of the drive in the changing weather conditions and scenery.from your Aussie friend.

[@terryevans5476]

Hope your back is improving Abel. Love from Cornwall England ❤

[@AbelandVictoria]

Slowly getting better but this was pretty bad. I’m definitely going to be more careful going forward. Thanks

[@aussiedonaldduck2854]

For more Ibuprofen, Thanks! Hope your back is better now. Great Vid again🤕

[@AbelandVictoria]

Hahah thank you. I’ll get myself another card. Back isn’t better but it’s slow improving Victoria will get me doing rehabilitation

What a way to make a living , eh mate. Mike. Canada 😮

[@armandzottola1626]

Good sport, mate. A smile , backache and all. I don’t think I’d enjoy the cold rain. We have plenty in New England…hard to shake off the chill even if dressed properly. Hearty appetite too.

[@fionalewis3121]

sorry to hear about your back, that's tough

[@lorrainesimpkin8385]

Great video sorry you got a bad back not nice as I suffer from back pain so I no how you feel Able love watching you ❤

[@jthomas332]

Terrific footage of the snow and storm! What a trooper to put on a smiling face, keep going and still enjoy the time on the tops despite the obvious pain you were in. From what you've described it does sound like a disc injury. When they go out of alignment, the sciatic nerve gets pinched and pressure builds. This translates down the leg as pain, weakness and even numbness. Last year my husband experienced a severe extraforaminal disc herniation and it took many months to heal but he was able to avoid an invasive operation through aquatherapy. It was a deal-breaker and was much more effective than physiotherapy. With changes and retraining with the way he lifted it has not been a problem since. If you can get in the pool and walk, resistance exercise is key. All the very best for a full recovery with no lasting issues.

[@AbelandVictoria]

It’s been a week and there has been pretty substantial recovery. I think the injury wasn’t super serious but it’s given me a wake up call to be more careful. Still a bit weak and sore but way more mobility and seem to improve daily

[@jthomas332]

That is heartening news, the advantages of youth! If it's an ACC injury and you mention weak leg that can fast track you to an MRI.
