I head into Death Valley NP for some cabin life. Thanks to Brent of the Ghost Town Living channel for the inspiration to hike up to Beveridge!

Please don’t change your format. This is exactly why I watch.

Same here

[@susanjacquier5358]

Absolutely....Foresty is the real deal :)

[@dprfail]

it's a great mix

[@closetcleaner]

I learn about new places to visit.

[@julesj77]

Agreed

[@GhostTownLiving]

Great hike! That hike from Snowflake is no joke, right? Loved hearing your perspective on everything. Next time you’re out this way, let’s find some hike to check out together!

[@hansschnuffelhausen7455]

Can't believe I'm seeing a possible collab of my favorite two youtubers happen in front of my eyes. Forest, get in touch with Brent ASAP while you're in the area and please get us some Ghost Town Living x Foresty Forest content! We'd love it.

[@robertc49]

Never ever did I think this would be happening. Feels like I'm dreaming. It's amazing how YT can bring us all together as one.

[@mtndaisy870]

Omgosh! I just saw where Foresty saw Brent's signature....sounds like he is aware of him already! So cool!

[@SinMore]

YES!! you two would make a wonderful video together. My favorites.

[@JerBearTeo]

I hope it happens. I think Brent might be one of the few youtubers who really could match Foresty in terms of hiking fitness and should be an interesting crossover.

[@SurferKenTV3]

This was essentially Foresty’s yelp ratings for Death Valley miner cabins. Starting from his highest graded, with lovely cabinets, 2nd with a functional wood stove, 3rd which left a lot to be desired to the last place which was too touristy. Thanks FF, great content as always.

[@tallguy0887]

I wanna thank you for standing the Flag up in the corner when you headed out and not just threw it on the ground as you found it. You are a fine man my respect!

[@bjclassic1950]

My exact thoughts. Sad that anyone would lay it on the floor. Thank you for showing respect!👍❤️🇺🇸💙

[@Shasha-jo5iv]

this is probaby a dumb question but why wouldn't you put the flag on the ground?

[@tallguy0887]

@@Shasha-jo5iv it’s about Respect. People died and will die for the ideas and way of life it represent. The flag should never touch the ground. It’s never dumb to learn something always ask questions 💪

[@dustinharrison3491]

Mad respect to Foresty for doing our flag (not even his) right! I appreciate that so much!!

When Foresty finally settles down, he should open a wood stove shop and start wood stove youtube channel.

[@darrellcaruk8880]

Nicely Done Foresty , visiting those cabins gets a person thinking , only if the walls can talk. All the stories and adventures talked about for so many years. I love the content.

[@RMJ1984]

Imagine if we could go back in time and watch.

[@ronsparks7887]

I am wondering how they got all of that stuff up there to those places. Not just the old mining equipment, but also the more modern stuff, like coolers, cooking gear, canned foodstuffs, etc. I can't see packing that stuff in on foot.

[@patrickmella6087]

I really don’t get how anyone could have a problem with his videos. Foresty is such a good dude and easily right up there with my fav KZbinrs. Him and Steve are just real dudes showing you their lives. I can appreciate a guy being true to himself. Never stop Foresty!!

[@jamsaanich4993]

With all the variety in the world on YT, if you don't enjoy watching something then move along and find what you're after. It's pretty easy right.

[@noneofyourbeeswax371]

Mostly jealousy, they are just so fed up with their miserable existence and can't bare to see good guys like foresty having a grand old time and making a living off this too!

Who is Steve plz? I'm interested in more content like this

[@marcbroust2124]

@for the love of God thanks

[@khustombuilt2854]

Yep, Steve is the other one I watch too...Great, relaxing value ..🇳🇿🇳🇿

[@doggedout]

Last time I went through there, east to west on that famous flat two lane highway, the thermometer at the store said 124 F. I had to stop in the middle of the stretch for a coyote that just stood there on the center line of the road glaring at me. He only moved when I tossed half a hamburger out on the dirt shoulder. Kill me or feed me he seemed to say. The toll must be paid. After making the strenuous 20 (ft) hike from the gas pumps to the store, I purchased two 6 packs of extremely tasty Death Valley branded pale ales, a couple of cow skill tee shirts...and headed north to Mammoth / Yosemite. It was a terrifying adventure. The colors of the rock looking down into the plain are some of the most stunning anywhere on earth. (Just to add, the first time, in 1979, in my long bed C-10 with a camper shell, some mushrooms and a Doors cassette...was somehow a less terrifying adventure.)

[@mattmurphy24]

Robert, I had the same experience with a Coyote on Antelope Island State Park in the Salt Lake. Seems a learned strategy by coyotes throughout the Great Basin!

[@randylueck1956]

Hey Forest, you are an inspiration to an old guy in his 60’s to get out and explore our awesome landscape. Don’t change a thing, you are very entertaining.

[@pimacanyon6208]

braver man than I. I would be creeped out staying in that second cabin. critters and ghosts would keep me awake all night! But the nearly 7000 feet of elevation gain is very impressive! You are a climbing machine.

[@1jackvalley580]

👻 Ghosts? 😩I'm outta here😬

[@caveredecorator5310]

he is a climbing machine. and you never even see him breathing hard. i would need a can of oxygen at the elevations he can get to. he must have large lungs and well defined quadriceps.

[@SocksWithSandals]

So beautifully documented. Hard to imagine how hard life was for the prospectors of the gold rush.

[@calaveth]

I was just gonna recommend you arrange a visit to Brent over in Cerro Gordo when I read who had pointed you toward Beveridge! Good video as usual. Love seeing these old mining environments.

[@isandiraedan7098]

Yes I going to post and say Foresty forest should go and see Cerro Gordo.

[@marianfrances4959]

Nothing says "holiday" like sleeping in a kitchen! Great hike. Love the rock cabin. Cool to sign that book right after Brent! Still snowing in Alberta! 👍😎🇨🇦🔥

[@slevinslevin5700]

I have made a point to like your videos. i normally only like videos to remember what music i like, so see it as a privilege haha well done nomad!

[@mindseye4914]

Another beautiful, soul calming video. To that person who hated on FF's videos and format, they need to go take a hike and never return to this channel. Keep you poison away.

[@SaulTPokit]

Am I the only one who can't hear Death Valley without immediately expecting - The Undeeertakeeeeer! Love this video mate, you look like yer enjoying yerself man. Been watching you for a couple of years now, definitely one my top YTers. All the best fae Scotland.

[@brianoregan1216]

Hi Forest. I spent 168 days out at Ft Irwin CA, it's in the heart of the death Valley. Just before the first Gulf war. It can go from 120° to - 10° definitely a different type of place.

[@pauloh3591]

I'm glad there are people who understand the cultural value in these places.

[@yadayada752]

Ft Irwin is in the Mojave Desert. It is a few hundred miles away from Death Valley although it gets high to. Not as hot as Death Valley.

[@rschreck876]

It’s actually south of Death Valley...

[@TomaszSlowinski]

Great video. I've never seen this side of death valley

[@br3wsan]

So strange to see mention of another channel that I follow on this one. Given the how closely related the topics are I guess it's not surprising but I always think of Ghost Town Living as this thing happening on the other side of the continent while Foresty just a fellow Canadian living in a van, never thought they'd ever visit the same place.

[@vstrbotten]

Your videos are never boring.

[@paf950]

Liked your choice of music for this one...fit the mood.

[@FincaLife]

That cabin is so cool and it's great that people can still use it

[@pollenayeung5815]

Also respect to those enjoyed the stay and made it decently livable for others.

[@mikef1570]

Just awesome! Thanks foresty!

[@yadayada752]

I grew up in Las Vegas & visited Death Valley many times. I never knew those cabins existed. Only the tourist spots down on the flats. Thanks for showing these spots.

[@SYNCROORG]

OMG never did I think I would occupy the same valley at the same time as Foresty Forest. But it’s true. I’m camped in Saline right now and have been for a short while. I imagine Forest is no longer in the valley now - and I missed him this time - but if he is, he’s sitting out a fierce wind storm, just like me. I hope to run into you yet, Forest. This one was very close!

[@forestyforest]

Thats cool, how are you getting internet there? I found one spot of cell service near the Boxcar Cabin. Wind is blasting in Owens Valley too. Have a good one 👍

[@SYNCROORG]

@@forestyforest there is an AT&T tower in DV that skips over to Saline in a few spots - plus I have commercial-grade equip : Parsec K9 4x4 Mimo antenna hooked to Pepwave Max Transit CAT 18 router. My friend Fox was camp;in over near where you parked to go hiking in a pick up with a shell and bike on top. Maybe you ran into him? In any case, what fun. Hopefully I’ll get a second chance to meet you when i head north in the late spring.

[@markakira8988]

This episode is so 'Circle of Life' in a man vs nature, man vs himself perspective. To actually go to these miner cabins you thought about during that crazy long arduous bike ride years ago. This must make you reminisce on a rare level very few people experience. // Those log books on top of mountains and in cabins where you sign in and leave a message, you should leave a Foresty sticker. Peace, man.

[@33Jenesis]

Very interesting DV trip. Certainly helps this armchair hiker to feel the scree underfoot:). Hopefully the person who sign the register after Foresty and Brent would take a photo and upload on SM. It’s what I call a bragging right LOL
