This week's video was fun for me. My daughter's graduation ceremony was Friday night, so I was unable to head out after work like normal. I woke up Saturday Morning and realized that I had no plans for a video. After scratching my head trying to think of a good one-night road trip, I remembered we have a lost forest in northern Minnesota. Its name is the lost 40.
In the late 1800's the four-man crew surveying the land for lumber production had overlooked the piece of ground. It sat untouched because it was surveyed as part of a swap. Once the oversight was recognized the old growth forest was protected.
Thankfully I found a campsite close by. It was an old site that is not listed anywhere other than my On-X hunting app. The site sits on Glove Lake, and I had plans to hook into some big fish, unfortunately a couple Bevers had other plans. I had mostly good weather, but a small rainout in the afternoon. Thankfully I experienced a beautiful evening walking the bank of the lake.
The campsite was extremely unlevel. There is no way a trailer would work at this location; a van would also have a hard time getting level. I used my camper jacks to lift the rear of the Arctic Fox over a foot which made the spot ok for sleeping.
I have not explored this part of Minnesota as much as I should. I will definitely be back. This state never lets me down.
If you made it this far think about turning on the notification bell for my videos. I see less then 5% of people have notifications set for the channel. If you enjoy the videos think about giving it a thumbs up. It helps with keeping KZbin presenting my videos to new viewers. The amount of people KZbin showing my videos has dropped about 100,000 impressions month. This is causing a real drop in new viewers. I use the KZbin income "about 150 bucks a month" to pay for my editing subscription and royalty free music fees. The left over 100 bucks goes into the fuel tank. Unfortunately, just the fuel cost to produce videos averages $1200 per month, it would be nice to collect a few more dollars from KZbin. The more times I can show up on someone's home feed the better my chances are at earning a new subscriber. With that being said I really appreciate the thumbs up and comments, it helps with the algorithm.
Thanks for coming along on this little adventure. I'll see you down the road.
