Canoe Overnighter With The Hounds - Elvis the Duckhunter Makes Sure We Don't Sleep...

We went for a canoe overnighter with the hounds, and as it is July in Norway, it doesn't really get dark. My kids slept in their hammocks, I went for the Zpacks Duplex as usual.

Beauty. Tranquility. Timeless experience when you are surrounded by such majesty. Nature calms the soul. Thank you for sharing.

[@Serendipity-gj2me]

This was unbelievably beautiful, peaceful, and tranquil. I enjoyed every minute of viewing the harmony of nature. Thank you, Bjorn.

[@BjornOutdoors]

Thank you. I tried to capture the experience out there.

[@kiwitraveller6451]

Yes we all need more of the wilderness/nature...to hug a tree etc...I do want more of this for myself...am in the city so will go on a retreat this weekend coming to recharge though. Not the same as going bush, countryside or forest, beach etc...how wonderful/neat...:-) To get away from all this nonsense going on around us a???

[@MJ-le3cn]

The perfect picture of "STILL WATERS" always delightful!

[@curtismiller268]

Looked like a wonderful time, thanks for sharing Bjorn.

Good Morning from Tennessee...USA.

Looks absolutely stunning!

[@BjornOutdoors]

Thanks a lot!

[@lindaschaad4551]

Good morning Bjorn from the United States i just wanted to say hello and want to thank you for your videos we enjoyed listening to you think you well appreciated it.

[@bigdaddy1024]

The Seagull is telling you to "give me some Food" Bjorn... 🎧 🎯 🥁

[@lauralee83]

I thought he was telling him " I'll poop on your head" 😅

[@warriorprincess1846]

What a blessing Bjorn, to have a daughter that enjoys being in nature! Wonderful video, really enjoyed thank you!

[@hellequingentlemanbastard9497]

It's so nice that you can do that without having to be armed and being consciously on the alert, because you never know who's watching you and for what purpose.

[@fishsurfer1]

I would still be armed preferably.

[@patriciariddle2997]

Those dogs are so beautiful! What a wonderful way to spend time with your kids and dogs.

[@bobhead6243]

Hi Bjorn , Lovely to see you and the younger Generation out together once again , Be Well my Friend.

[@radiationraven]

That was beautiful. Elvis! Him chasing “sky raisins” as I call them- my dog does the same. I am getting better with the Ferro rod, but not “one strike” good… I wonder how our ancestors dealt with flies, mosquitoes, ticks… what did they use to deal with them!? Much respect from Northern Maine.

[@jamesjoseph713]

Sky raisins 🤣🤣

[@joanirogers6950]

This was lovely! Elvis was looking so pleased with the sun on his face. Thank you!🌲

[@bradleysmith9253]

I love camping ⛺️ thanks for bringing us. 😎🏄🌈🇦🇺

[@exoticwater]

What a beautiful special place, still waters, campfire, just being in nature is so healing 🌿 thank you for sharing Bjørn ⭐️

[@reginajohnson1818]

I agree nature is such a wonderful blessing from God

[@haakonchristensen2880]

It looks like it's somewhere at Vansjø?! That lake has a lot of nice small islands and huge pikes. I've been fishing there a few times. Great video Bjørn!

[@liciniogoncalves4231]

Bjorn, magnificent landscapes around the island, this time with the two dogs and in the company of his son and daughter. This video has more beautiful images than the previous video. Congratulations Bjorn.

[@lauralee83]

All the important things in life with you on a little island surrounded by nature. Paradise Bjorn. ❤

[@nanaa3428]

Another good morning from Tennessee USA. Such a wonderful time camping with family.

[@szeleddie]

I don't think that scenery can look more prettier as it is?!!? Maybe i wrong?!

[@tedmccanna7164]

Beatiful place the sunsets and the morning mists are truley the magical hours of the day, the dogs are gorgeous. Thanks for the video!

[@GreencampRhodie]

Precious, priceless moments.

[@blakewinter1657]

Odd thing but this looks a lot like where I grew up in Vermont. Lots of rocks, lots of pine trees, beautiful water.

[@BerserkerGang2019]

Elvis looks like he's having fun. His vest looks real nice. Of course the flies aren't so nice . I might buy a tent like that.

[@colleenc236]

In places like that, one can almost believe the world is at peace and normal. Enjoy while you can Bjorn 🤗

[@Rabbitholes_Inc]

Stunning place... my dream to live in such surroundings. Even if, with a mr. duckhunter, i wouldn't mind it at all :)

[@mrsorepaws9146]

Mmm, nothing like those early hours, when nature is waking up. Or maybe taking a shift change would be a better word ; ) ᛞ

[@zozosmom7024]

I literally can smell the campfire! I would be putting on the bacon on about now and the kids would be getting up hungry and sassy! Love it!

[@lorih9182]

I miss camping with my kids. They're all grown up now, raising their own children.

[@shewearswoolsocks2883]

Twilight and early morning are such peaceful and tranquil times to be awake and take it all in! Nice sunrise and campfire. Elvis is awesome lol! Thanks for sharing!

[@yellowbeard9958]

Good morning .I'm behind you tree on the right 👃I wish .my small hound hidding in garden under tarp and bid boy in house .to warm to take the out .he would be swimming across to see other dogs.loves water .take care outhere .you lucky lucky man👌

[@freedomformen2548]

Yes nature makes you happy . Your lucky to live in a wonderfull natural country 👍🙏

[@greghart6310]

Another amazing trip. What a magnificent setting! Elvis seems to have adjusted well to outdoor life, much more confident than his first outing.

[@BjornOutdoors]

Yes, I have noticed that as well!

[@kevincraigyates5443]

Good morning

[@lodazal6571]

Got to spend time with family recently, out in nature. It was very nice because it was almost like the old normal.

[@1954shadow]

Campfires stimulate one’s thoughts.

[@valerierogers9609]

That was so beautiful. Nature teaches us many things. We are natural beings and, largely, too disconnected from nature today; that is the underlying reason for much depression, anxiety.

[@rotntv]

Loved that Hero Shot of the doggo

[@justinstilson8028]

Bjorn,it really looks like you have a good and fulfilling life,I'm still enjoying All your channels,and the shots you took of early morn and evening were amazing. Have another great night out! Tusen takk

[@MrBboyle1]

Lol. The fun of traveling with dogs.

[@ctheflower7818]

Aw... Good Morning 🌅 Bjorn 🤗 This is just Grand 🤗 You & yours are so very Blessed. And we all are so Blessed that your kind heart has chosen to take us along 😎

[@jamesjoseph713]

Beautiful place, so peaceful..your so right when you say nature is profound. Thanks Bjorn 😊From the UK.

[@Charmain-vj9qz]

Oh my goodness what a absolutely beautiful location ❤❤❤😊

[@paulworgan6599]

Totally agree I am lying on the ground next to my little wolf.

[@margomaloney6016]

EXCELLENT video highlighting the importance of family bonding time (dogs included) in nature! Takk, Bjørn!

[@han1660]

This place looks absolutely beautiful. So peaceful

[@Laura_B__]

Bjorn, I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now, and I think this one might be my favourite yet. So beautiful and peaceful. It gives me a yearning to find some isolated place to go camping. Thanks so much for sharing this experience with us. I wanted to add also, that the landscape looks exactly like northern Ontario - including the flies. :)

[@hidebehind2604]

In youth I and my scruffy American full blood mutt went on a 7 day quest of completeexppolration of a very large lake. First two days were spent mostly under a canoe and canvas tarp out of wind blown snow and freezing rain. End of day 2 it cleared and a full moon crystal clear night began so I pulled stakes loaded canoe and off we went. After Northern blizzards and storm sometimes perfect no wind calm ensued. In those first days of year edges of lake was iced up so you watched for where streams entered and melted ice. My dog and I survived off of fish, a sort of pemmican, moose jerky and a Black Duck,( original eastern mallard). At end of week even though. Dog and I bathed in lake we smelled like wet dog and human and dogfarts and were scratching fleas. For water we did what no man should do today. Drank the streams and lake water At nights water reflected heavens as if a mirror and being as it was a very large lake and mirror smoothing the middle it seemed as if my canoe, dog, and were afloat in the heavens. The silence was what drove many into being stir crazy and everything they did was as loud as hell. Oh there were noises but not a one made by humans except a paddle making silver water drops and bow of canoe cutting through starfilled water,startled beaver , loons and ducks, various owls, Lynx calls and of course my and dogs breathing, just as when we savages and pagans of ancient times passed through. My dog and myself asleep under two wool blankets and a Moose hide kept the cold from bothering our daylight or night sleeps. Impossible to find solitude near that lake today as the crudness of civilization invaded and indeed acts stir crazy from having to yell above other man made savages toys of over boats, yappling mini almost dogs, music dogs and plastic autos, so as to let world know he is alive,

[@BjornOutdoors]

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

[@andrewbarlow8937]

Beautiful Scenery. I want to experience that in person.

[@alicewoodard2373]

P. S. Here, in Colorado, U S.A.) Tent camping is best with a large dog, it wards off large animals such as Bear,and Mountain Lion, and Coyote 👍

[@theimperialist2686]

Absolutely love watching these videos Bjorn

[@koraktheape]

If covod and travel permits, you should come to Alaska, you'd fit in like a fish to water 🍻

[@donpardoe8067]

Every video is a like a soothing touch of sanity.

[@nachozombiekilla481]

Consider dryer lint for your fire tinder. Very flammable, lightweight, compactable, and free.

[@DG-ic9ub]

Thanks Bjorn. So peaceful & relaxing. Really well taken too. The 1080 quality on my mobile watching this was just excellent 🙂👍

Sweet dogs... I love animals. Your Norwegian scenery is gorgeous as well... your videos will probably attract more visitors and tourists. :)

[@Jetmab04]

Such a wonderful place Bjorn...your kids and your dogs must be so proud of you...and, if they don't tell you now, they will when they become older and watch this video again 😊

[@Jetmab04]

Thanks so much for the heart Bjorn and one in return here for sharing this peacefull video ❤️ I love Norway, always did but obviously can't visit this beautiful island now....maybe Bjorn....maybe one day I can show this and all the other wonderful places I've visited...show it to my 3 Grandsons whom I know will love this place....if we are all allowed to survive the present nazi-fascism that is...hope is green!! Keep hoping!

Perfect peacefulness.
