[@jeng1589]

That snowy view walking up the hill with the early morning skies, completely breathtaking! ❄️💙❄️

[@TheNorsemanRedbeard]

Time in the woods with a father and son can be one of the best investments a man can make. Thank you for sharing.

[@cliffordfreeman7829]

Yes out in the silent woods is very important and peaceful for the soul.

[@mz.6109]

Your adventures help alot of us that simply have no feasible means to get out and do the same and it is very important to be good at being uncomfortable as this world requires it. Thanks Bjorn

[@krisjustin3884]

Thanks for taking us to the Borderlands. Love the wood fire on a cold night. Not easy to beat an atmosphere like that.

[@riseshine761]

Hello Björn from a very wet UK. The hot tent looked very cozy. Beautiful scenery 😍

[@bigunone]

Many years ago a picked up a book in the bargain bin, IIRC the title was "A Good Woodsman Knows What's Eating Him" the author's whole premise was we need to be out in the woods even if it is for nothing more than a leisurely walk to a favorite picnic spot. He claimed it added more red blood cells to you. He talked about canoe trips where his wife would drop him and his boys off then pick them up down stream at the end of the day. One of the funniest chapters was a father racoon teaching his kids how to read the garbage in a camp ground trash can.

[@taralee7076]

That was so beautiful- the snow is so stunning and the campfire lights. Truly blissful. I find that when I go to my horses, and there is no one else around just sitting and being with them in their presence is so peaceful. I was in a head on car accident (other driver was on the wrong side of the road). I’m learning to walk again, so seeing you hiking is also very emotional for me, sometimes motivating, sometimes frustrating as well as you may imagine. Thank you for the video. Keep up your spirit, it will help you when you need it most.

[@ryantowell]

The Scandinavian countries are so beautiful. I hope to visit them in the not too distant future. Just seeing the untouched beauty of a winter forest is so calming to me, as is nature in general. I've been extremely anxious and stressed lately and your videos have been very therapeutic for me. Regards from UK

[@bertramhalbruner3296]

Sadly, my life is very high stress... watching your videos like this one and others where you are sitting by the fire talking... bring such peacefulness to me!!! I would so love to be out there with you. I know it is not comfortable, like a home or hotel, but it is so peaceful and while you work for fuel and hike, it is relaxing. I love these videos!! God bless you, my friend! Enjoy your life and lifestyle!!

[@ianwoodzy638]

When I long distance hike for 4 days or more, it is very rewarding to get the tent up and get inside, make some food and hot water to drink, especially when its been windy and raining all day, I am glad for you it snowed for the next morning, This year here in the UK it has been a terrible winter for snow so far, apart from the storm recently, with constant westerly wet winds or South westerly winds, I am impatiently waiting for some north easterly winds to bring some snow!

[@tykehotep2865]

great times Bjorn with your lad in tow hope it was as good as it sounds all the best from the UK

[@latigomorgan]

Watch out for those border Viking raiders! If you split your wood, it mostly likely will be dry on the inside, if it was dead and standing. It's good to keep close to the earth. Sleeping outside, on the ground does something to align one's spirit, I believe. I have yet to meet a high-strung bushcrafter/outdoorsman. The fresh air, the weather, the dirt, the smells and sounds all contribute to keeping one relaxed and focused. The only drama in the outdoors is survival against the elements.

[@BjornOutdoors]

We could not find any dead standing this time. So this log was wet, but of course not on the inside. That is why you see me drying the pieces before I split them.

[@sharonmcqueentorres2459]

The woods is EARTHING.🐇👍😇

[@teresajames2725]

Nice to be out in nature. Definitely need a fire in the cold. I did notice a house or cabin while you were out walking. You'd mentioned you had your son with you. That's nice he came with you. I was expecting him to be in the video. Maybe next time.

[@SatoshiSean]

That bridge over the river was amazing!

[@RevanJJ]

I’ve been actually planning to do this soon. Waiting on a new Firebox stove. Of course I could go with just the old fashioned way for a better challenge. These videos inspire and help me escape my depression and thoughts about current events in this world so thanks.

[@HotBoxnChevys]

Dont escape from the world, look it straight in the fave and deny that shit it manifests.

[@latigomorgan]

You won't have to wait long for your Firebox stove. Those guys are fast! Be careful, because their products are addicting!

[@germanicpaganpaths]

It is almost like the forest is saying we don't have boarders.

[@kop_life]

Great video. Survival and bushcraft lovers please like this video.

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

Hello Bjorn I think you would like to see the modifications I did to my Seek stove, a glass door and smoke stack robber!!😁✌️💚

[@daveyjoweaver6282]

When you are camping out on Mother Earth you are surrounded in true reality. Home on the sofa in a nice warm home is comforting but outside is mans reality, which is not so real in most cases. Thank You for this wonderful and beautiful trip with your son! Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

[@kiltedsasquatch3693]

I'm making a Nokkelost cheese today as a means to use up some excess milk and to celebrate my Norwegian-American heritage. From what I've read, this is a traditional Norwegian holiday cheese. Keep up your outdoor channel, it's inspiring. Try some fishing in a video when the bite is good. Cheers!

[@theimperialist2686]

This was another great video outdoor in nature as always Bjorn.

[@robertbelliii7048]

I also like your stoves and fire equipment. I need to get one of those.

[@hkentw]

Thank you my friend. It was good to be back for a few moments.

[@gerardvanengelen9001]

So agree with you. I took my son to the woods when he was younger. Now he goes on his own. Even spent 3 weeks in Norway hiking. And I go almost every day.

[@sharonmcqueentorres2459]

I want to tell you a few things. 1) been very sick /kidneys failing-on machine 3xweek SO I can’t donate right now. We don’t have free healthcare 😩 We have Ins. We pay for.🐇🇺🇸 Your shows are great. My Gpa (MacQueens) ALL came from the Isles of Sky/Highlanders. Big on Earthing like you-we live by the Sea but are happiest in the mountains. Thank you for being real-for being my kind of people(values/respect/principles. You Matter🙏🇺🇸

Thank you, Sharon. I hope you get better soon!

Lovely Video Bjorn and best wishes from Yorkshire ,England 😀

[@hawkeye8712]

Yes sir and by the way listening to your videos has inspired me. Let's do one thing surround yourself by like minded people . And build that connection that brings us to a more successful, and successful understanding of which is to come..

[@abyssmanur3965]

Weve been sitting around fires since 2000000 years ago, thats why it feels right.

[@Peter-od7op]

Thank god for Canadian truckers.

[@mz.6109]

Yes whomever God one prays to thank them for these people's courage

[@CheckmateStallioN]

Beautiful forest!! I hope Freyr and Freija's blessings protect what is still left of these woods! Iceland has the beautiful iconic waterfalls but Norway and Sweden has the most beautiful forests! Have you ever come across a forest troll in these woods Bjorn? Skol!

[@robertbelliii7048]

this is one of the best ones bjorn. The scenery on this trip was incredible. Sweden and NOrway are very pretty countries. That was a nice river !!

[@BjornOutdoors]

Thanks a lot!

[@thenordish8403]

This will be fun to watch. Have a great day Bjørn !

[@hawkeye8712]

Yes sir it does make you wonder why, would someone want to separate the border. Well I guess maybe I have a point of view ,that everything right now these days is a plan. And not always is it the plan good for the people.. Thank you sir for bringing forth very informative videos, God-bless be safe be inspired.

[@BjornOutdoors]

Thanks a lot. I heard someone saying it's because of the different rules for hunting in Sweden and Norway, but I am sure there must be more to it.

[@hawkeye8712]

@@BjornOutdoors Yes sir I believe just like you must be must be more to it. Also by the way thank you for responding it is a great honor for this. Let me introduce myself my name is Michael, And the videos that you have shared ,I believe in them just like you. I am from Texas but move to Colorado United States of America.

Looks amazing out there. Thank you so much for sharing! I wish my dad would of taken me camping!

I've been out for a month now getting my land setup for my bug out location. It's 1500 acres so I'm taking what trees I need to build my cabin and clearing some for garden and pasture for my horses and the cattle and sheep. I've been through 70°F temperatures to sever thunderstorms and Tornadoes not to far away then down to the 20s Degrees Fahrenheit temperatures. But I'm back at my home for a week now..

[@HotBoxnChevys]

Stop all trucks deliveries, learn from the so called freighter shipping issue, flip it around on them. Point is the " top " makes all their money off of commerce, state, national, international commerce, taxes, fees, bribes, manufacturing profits, transport profits, and sales profits, 10% to the big guy has to come from somewhere... the power of the people, the power of the little guy a cumulatively makes all and any of this work... shut it down , sick out, sit out , whatever you like to call it. It will take light speed to take effect on the rich " top " . each day cost them untold profits world wide. How do you stop an advancing dominating army ? Cut off supplies and logistics.. 101
