Becky you are a remarkable young woman! You have a very wise head on young shoulders and you certainly know what’s important in life. You’re very intelligent and you have the ability, drive and focus to achieve anything you want to plus you have the support of a very proud loving family. As you know I love watching your channel for all the reasons I’ve said and I’ve also said that you are an inspiration to everyone, young and old! There are so many people that could learn a lot from you and your channel. I will end by saying that I, for one, would be very proud and honoured to have a daughter like you. Congratulations on reaching 10,000subs. You fully deserve that and much more.

[@rhino5419]

Gaz Pyrotechnics Absolutely. Perfect comment. Nothing to add. Well done Becky!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much Gaz for your lovely comment, it is very kind of you! I am glad you like my channel, it means a lot. Aw that is very sweet of you :) Thanks again, one of the best comments i have received. Take care my friend :)

[@surfandstreamfisher5749]

Well said Gaz!!!!!

[@johnh5299]

That what i wanted to say but Gaz said it better.

[@danraviv7393]

Thank you so much! I used to love hiking and camping, but have neglected it a bit since my little kids were born. Your videos inspired me and I'm going out camping tomorrow with my 3 year old girl, will be a blast I'm sure!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@arranbailey4818]

Your parents must be so proud of you, they have obviously done an amazing job. Congratulations on your 10k you've earned it.

[@AndrewLanich]

You come across as a very sincere and genuine person. Your transparency about your past is very telling! I'm not at all surprised you feel at home among nature! Nature always lures the good souls back to where they came from. I hope you make a trip over here to North America sometime, you would enjoy the beauty of it all; we have some of the worlds best forests! Glad to be a subscriber, keep it up!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your lovely comment Andrew, means a lot! Yeah would love to visit north AMerica sometime - its stunning!

[@wildcamper1082]

Imagine having parents like that. Awesome support. Wow, polar opposite to the way I was brought up.

[@ash8662]

You are a breath of fresh air. Subbed

[@cabinlife2347]

Congrats on reaching 10k subscribers!! Love watching your videos.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you Glenn and Maureen. Love watching your channel also!

[@2wheelsrbest327]

Thanks Becky having only just found you I found this interesting. Particularly as I am both a keen cyclist motorcyclist and recently fishing. Its only taken me 71 years to realise how wonderful fishing is. As you said life flies by. If you ever want inspiration to become a motorcycle traveller look up Itchy Boots like you a young lady with spirit. Going to now have to find your dad's channel.

[@davidsexton6604]

There's nothing like being in your tent ,having coffee and some biscuits in the Highlands !

[@williampysell2819]

I realize that this is one of your older videos, but I just discovered it tonight, and I am glad that I did! For such a young woman, you have a vast amount of common sense, and you have a great understanding of life and what you would like to do with yours while moving forward!

[@arkansasexplorer1624]

You have thousands of people who love you thru KZbin, that would never have known you otherwise. Thank You> Love your camping trips. From Arkansas USA

[@tomm2812]

I remember you at 145 viewers. You have come a long ways. All the best to you and yours in the decades to come Becky.

[@GirlOutdoors]

That seems like ages away now, thank you very much!

[@raymondporter2094]

Lovely video and it's good to see your parents have brought a well grounded young lady into the world. I have FOUR years of these videos to catch up on (having recently stumbled onto your CWT videos and watched them).

[@AmieBello]

What an incredible journey you’ve been on…and continue to be on! I really enjoy your hiking/camping videos. You’re such a free spirit - true to yourself and following your own path now. Kudos to you! I disovered you while looking at WHW videos. Your adventure along The Way was so much fun to follow. I can see how you just decided to follow your own path - your trail YOUR way. You’re an inspiration 💕

[@onenation9510]

It's a very courageous to be authentic and its great you demonstrate the objective in life should be personal happiness! I'm pleased you've found it with your Girl Outdoors KZbin Channel. Thanks.

[@unlockscotland]

Best wishes with all you do. Clearly a heart of gold.

[@scotts.8460]

I just found and started watching your channel a few weeks ago. Wow, you are such a well grounded and exceptional young lady. I wish you much continued success. What a beautiful soul you have.

[@Woodchuckinthesouth]

Congratulations! 10,000 subs in less than a year! nice! My hope is that you continue to grow in your skills and never let the wilderness get "old" you are an inspiration!

[@markmarkle476]

Thanks for sharing, and sounds like your happy with the new direction you are taking

[@jeffreyrose46]

Holy Competitive Cycling Bat Girl☺🚵 Who knew beneath that soft shell was an amazing, dig deep champion. That's so cool Becky. So happy on your 10k subs. So proud to know you. Enjoy 🙌🌟👍☺😀💖

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment, appreciate it :)

[@cleetusboon]

you are such a remarkable person. You're absolutely right about making the most of life - I lost my brother a few weeks ago and now I'm left wishing we had more adventures together. These videos inspire me so much to just get out there and stop over thinking everything. Might even start a little channel maybe, we'll see haha

[@mrforss9756]

Hi want to start by thanking you for a great video. Started myself very young to be fascinated by nature and quickly became attached to the whole concept of being out and living out in nature, started as a scout trained me as a leader and has had so much fun and been to camp with 36 thousand scouts from all over the world . Am 41 today and am still out as often as I have time for it. Good luck with everything.

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

You've got quite the life story already, for such a young person. It's nice to live the life you want to. But it's good you learned from all your past experiences as well. I know where you are coming from. I used to race cross country and a little bit of enduro, and dabbled in road. Really wanted to race BMX but no scene where I grew up. I didn't persue it as hard as you did, but many riding friends and co competitors did and still do. It's their whole life! And seeing the kids on development teams and whatnot, it's something that controls their whole lives. It's great if they love it, but some are pushed into it, and regardless, it's good to be well rounded and exposed to other things. It's also important to not get burned out. I lived and breathed MTB. Was a bike mechanic, sold bikes, organized rides, led groups, volunteered in organizations, did trail work and even met my wife riding. I raced hard, commuted by bike, and rode four seasons. And I started to dislike it. But, as I wrongly used it to identify who I was, it felt like rejecting who I was to leave it behind. My body finally really started to complain, though, with overuse injuries and multiple bad wrecks. And I needed to go back into the woods. So, I stopped riding, quit working at the shop, traded my bike for a rifle and dove in deeper into bushcraft. It's very rewarding, and there's no performance peak, like sports can have. You have your whole life to learn more and more. Google Mors Kohanski. He's a Canadian bushcraft icon. He's the grand daddy. And he's spent his whole life accumulating skills and knowledge. You can see him on Karamat Ways KZbin channel. Keep doing what you love, specially if it's good and wholesome. Congratulations on 10k subscribers, too. Love the crow! We had one for a bit as kids. Very smart animals. Take care.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Ah wow! You must of been into cycling a lot also, glad to know someone knows where i am coming from. Cycling becomes your life instead of a hobby or a bit of fun, i did enjoy my years doing it but im glad i quit and now looking for more in life. Aha that's cool, think that was a good idea :) Will have to look that youtuber up. Thank you very much, cor you had a crow and cycled, you sure we aren't the same person aha! Take care and thanks for sharing

[@GuinessOriginal]

@@GirlOutdoors do you ever consider cross county and trail bikepacking on a mountain bike? As an alternative to hiking? Seems like something you’d excel at and be able to cover loads more ground, I’ve get it if you’re totally done with bikes though

[@billmitchell7731]

Your Somthing else little buddy. Glad you got into bushcraft. Your good at it👍👍👍. Great channel.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Aw thanks Bill :)

[@robertreynolds9228]

Wow just watched this vid becky! You have come along ways haven't you. I knew you were a atheletic. Good for you. It has been my pleasure watching your bushcraft skills grow and you grow into to wonderful young lady you are. Here's to many more years sweetie.

[@mickeymunkchunk4512]

Oh my god Becky ! only started watching you yesterday, what an incredible life you have had up to now and you are still so young, the way it's going I can only see great things ahead, your mum and dad, relatives, friends, anyone who knows you must be so proud of you, and yes, enjoy being young.

[@FatedTag]

❤ You and your Dad helped me soo much during the Plandemic. Those were extremely dark times but seeing you guys inspired me, motivated me, and kept hope alive. I thank you both so much for what you do.

[@Nate1975]

Good to know the background. Explains a lot About your confidence and resilience. You are just so chilled about the whole outdoor thing. You make it look so easy

[@jamesbarrett2758]

Awsome story similar to my own as a competitive cyclist too once upon a time completely understood where you were coming from with the pressures of it all. Great videos awsome editing style aswell look forward to your future vids. keep up the good work. 👍

[@philgawthrop2518]

Hell-o from Arkansas, I love your calm presence. Stay focused on who you are and not what others imagine you should be. Life can come fast sometimes so stay calm and work through it. Be yourself!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment :)

[@inquisitive1911]

Very humbling lady!! Keep up the great work, doing exactly what you love!! Love from Scotland, x.

[@williampysell2819]

I have been watching your videos for the past couple of years, and I have gained a lot of admiration and respect for you in that time. You have a great working knowledge of the outdoors and of the skills required to successfully live and survive in the wilderness! You have such a pleasant demeanor, as well. Who would have guessed that you are also such an accomplished cyclist! You are a great girl!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you William for your message, I really appreciate your support! You are very kind, thanks a lot! Take care

[@JohnAdams-bz3mu]

Oh and Congratulations on 10k subscribers, on to the next 10k!

[@welshlad6427]

Congratulations on your 10k. Fantastic upbringing you had and great to see you continuing this as you grow ❤

[@tararuaman]

Hello from New Zealand. I like your videos. So many people have well ordered lives and feel discomfort all to easily. In New Zealand we call 'hiking ' Tramping (the Brits called it that right up until the forties ) the word came out with the pioneers and stayed. In 2021 I did 67 'tramps' ,most were day tramps but also some 5 day ones. I have the time and would not want to do anything else. Over here we have huge forests and is a real test of bush craft, many think that they can do it until you drop them off into the NZ bush for 7 days. and they don't see a road or people in all they time. I am sure that you would do very well, You would know by now that 'going bush' keeps you sane in these mad times. Keep it up and one day if you come out this way the mountains and bush will be waiting. Keep the videos coming.

[@pastoramoscarmichael5986]

Hi Becky wonderful video thanks for sharing,love you and The Family you always make camping look good and fun. God Bless many could learn by watching a great patience teacher,thank you keep up the Great work

[@3101010]

Congratulations on reaching 10K I really enjoy watching your videos , so its no surprise so many others do as well. Keep up the good work.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you so much :)

[@semco72057]

You have learned so much in your young life and have experienced so much too. I love how much you know about living in the forest, and also knowing how to be a bicyclist as well. I know your parents are so proud of you and wish you all the best as you mature and become more independent.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for all your comments, they are lovely to hear! Take care

[@iain79]

Great bio Becky glad your doing your passion outdoors camping cooking etc I hope you done well in your exams great stuff 😀

[@bikinglife1547]

You thoroughly deserve 10000subs. You are a credit to this country and I sincerely wish more people were like you ...... Congrats

[@oldprentonian7767]

A very brave and candid account, of which you were under no obligation to give. I gave up cycling for much the same reasons you did, although I still enjoy the sport. Keep going, but most importantly, do it on your own terms. Thanks for the great content. Take care, Al.

[@loneoutdoorsman]

Fantastic video, and what a great outlook you have on life. It's true, you only get one go at life and you certainly are making the most of it :) congrats on 10k subs, well deserved.

[@marting4128]

Wow, amazing cycling achievements Becky...didn't see that one coming! Quite brave to give that up, in many ways, but reflects the maturity and wisdom we've learnt that you have...and I guess must have been nurtured / developed by your wonderfully supportive family. And a crow-whisperer too, love that :) Thank you for sharing your story with us.

From my perspective, your outdoors adventures is a good fit for you. Your camping videos are fantastic. Too much competition can be detrimental to ones well being. Please continue your camping adventure as it will be well with and for you. Have a super grand day.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!!

[@stevegartman113]

When I was growing up (80s) my father, brother and I raced track and road. We would ride and race on the weekends. I went to private school and would ride at least 25 miles a day I remember how hard it was. I would be very tired after my ride and would need to shower, eat and do homework. I would be so tired in the mornings. It was rewarding but a truly grueling lifestyle. I still have my very first road bike, it's a Lotus. Still ride it to this day even though it's a 19" frame 😂. My father is 79 and is in great shape because of his passion for cycling. For those of you who don't know much about cycling, for Becky to win on a national level means she was a tremendous athlete! Thank you for sharing, what a wonderful surprise to learn about your cycling career! 🔥🤙🏼

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your lovely comment, i really appreicate it. Yeah i understand, it is a tough but very rewarding sport. Take care :)

If you can achieve that high a level with something you don't really love, just think of what you can achieve with something you do! 10k today 100k tomorrow! Thanks for bringing us along Becky. If you ever want to come to Vancouver Island and hike the West Coast Trail, count me in, I'll meet you at the beach!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much :)

[@joeboyd4726]

Thanks for the background. You are a true badass in the best possible way. Looks like you were an amazing biker. I ride a bike quite a bit but have never been a competitive biker. I have seen enough to know that can be a pretty self centered crowd. Great pictures of a young you. I agree with prior comment by gaz0463 that you are a very remarkable and wise young lady. Sounds like you have a fantastic relationship with your parents, particularly your dad. I have three grown daughters and have a good relationship with them all, but nothing like you seem to have with your dad. I have watched many of your videos and look forward to many more. I am in Vermont USA and a healthy 73 years old. Just saying that you reach a wide and diverse audience.

[@Velobetty]

It's so interesting to hear about your cycling background which I hadn't realised. I'm a cyclist too and also race but I've always been a lover of the outdoors and learning bushcraft skills. Nowadays I'm quite happy going bikepacking and wild camping then I am competing. 😊

[@crazyhorsejohnny1974]

Thanks for sharing. Sometimes that's real hard to do in a setting like this. Congrats on your success. Btw a great channel for you to check out if you haven't already is Justin Barbour. He's a fellow Canadian from Newfoundland who does great outings in the wilderness with his dog Saku. He has a few epic long voyages that I think are second to none. Take care and have a good one.

[@PsilocinThistle]

Awesome story..... thank you

[@steveoutdoorsuk3602]

Great video Becks. Always good to hear your positive views on life. You have achieved much more than most guys of your age. All the best for next Tuesday's trip to Romania. Stay safe. ATB. Steve.

'It's better to die with memories than to live with only dreams' is my life motto. I really like the honesty in your video. I had no idea the channel is only 9 months old. The teaching bushcraft part is a good idea.

Congratulations Becky. I'm not sure what I can add that has not already been said. Thank you for your story. It takes a special person to achieve what you did cycling and then to know it was time to move on. Very few people have your sense of yourself at such a young age. You will do extremely well at whatever you choose. Best wishes from across the pond.
