The place looks great and I hope you have a great season hunting.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

preppernurse1 Thank you, Deer hunting is just over 2 weeks away.

[@bulldog5350]

Been lying in bed with the stomach flu for three days not wanting to eat until you cooked up the steak. Apparently I’m getting my appetite back because now I want a porterhouse!

[@gilleslebrun7779]

Very well done videos, a delight to watch. I gather that your pal Max has gone to dog heaven, I could see that even in his old age he felt that it was the place to be at, he seemed to enjoy going fishing also. Thanks for sharing Mother Nature with us all,

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Max passed away last year. He was 16 years old. He is missed. Thank you. Joe

[@oransmith1010]

Man! you just warmed them up on both sides. Now that's a meal. Awesome

[@shamasi1968]

Oh yeah.. my nephew is getting his hunting genes all up and moving now too. He's 12 and got his first big buck this youth season.. 10 points and one good looking buck too. It was a perfect shot, punctured the heart immediately and dropped like a rag doll on the spot. He's so proud. Now I get deer jerky too.

[@NWHomesteader]

Nice productive trip! Thanks for taking us along...

[@E-Rck]

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Stephen Lees When I am at home, I wake up at 4 in the morning no matter what and my mind is racing on whats got to be done that day and the whole week. I average 6 hours of sleep a night. Up there I wake up that first morning early because I am so excited to do something fun even though its work. Then I sleep like a baby. LOL. Thank you. Joe

J297WFD Thank you. I do love it up there this time of year. I will be back up there next weekend.

[@MouseToes]

Not only is the view from your place spectacular; all that you have done inside is incredibly comfortable and functional. And you eat REALLY well out there. I always enjoy your videos and find them relaxing.

[@warpspeedfd]

You are one talented dude! I wish I had carpenter skills.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

warpspeedfd Thhank you for the nice comment. I have been a carpenter as a job for over 30 years.

[@SCSchmidt]

Wow Joe, it seems like yesterday you were repairing the stand that the tree had fell on. How time flies! Keep up the good work.

[@cabotbluegill]

Wonderful looking camp good luck

[@TheRwhyte]

Favorite hunting and fishing videos on KZbin. Just watching your videos gives me the urge to get out in the woods and enjoy this world. You have some really nice areas to hunt and great for these vids. Keep them coming. Best of luck this season with the deer. Looking forward to seeing your results. Awesome.

[@davidgriffin14]

[@marksparkplug7758]

[@BohistaNordica]

That was so fun to watch....what a cozy place The Tent is! Your Winter is way ahead of us in Seattle. It's still balmy Autumn here although there has been the infamous rain for the last few days. xoj

[@mikemeixner1504]

Awesome video! I spent some good year's in Minnesota! Lived in Hackensack and fished a lot on leech lake!!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Mike Meixner Good ole Hackensack. Its a great area of the state. Thank you. Joe

[@cory8791]

Great vid! Thanks for posting!

[@airsoftlover04]

Sweet setup

[@williamwiechert3030]

Another A+ video! I just love watching your videos. Can't think of anyone else I'd actually watch do work around their cabin! Like a few have said, your videos are so nice and relaxing. It makes me that much more anxious to get up north to our cabin and get ready for deer season. November 8th will get here fast!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

William Wiechert Thank you for the nice comment. I am going back up this weekend to finishh a few things up and then I will stay home I thing the end of october weekend and then I will be back up November 7th and in my stand like you said on the Nov 8th opener. Exciting. Thanks again. Joe

[@williamwiechert3030]

And thank you for the kind words also. We are praying that we see more than we have been seeing on our cams. None of us drew a doe tag this year, so it's bucks only for us. I wish you guys good luck this year, and hope you can fill the freezers with venison!

[@movinon04]

everything at the tent is looking great- i could live in a place like that year round- you did a wonderful job- many blessings

[@bernieclement3373]

You are a eating machine lol. Love the update.

[@shamasi1968]

I ended up in Minnesota last Sunday night.. drove across the entire state of Iowa to get my boy. He bought a car up in some small town north of Owatonna, then broke my truck.. lol Drove all the way up there just to see him fix the truck and bring it home. Maybe next time he gets car crazy he'll pick someplace closer to the lakes up there and I'll get to see how beautiful it is for myself. Hopefully it wont be at night again.

[@mawpatti]

your tent videos are one of my favorite videos...I think I have just about watched all of them twice...lol...you are one of my favorite youtuber on here!! so relaxing to watch!! I feel like I know the tent so well!! HAHAHA!! thanks for sharing...cant wait for Melissa to join you up there! :-)

[@carolineedmistoncooki3fair631]

You, sir, are a terrific videographer! Your editing is top notch. I just found your channel this weekend, and have been binge watching. Soooo much fun. I love the series on wild edibles. I don't think I have ever seen such a productive person! You do more in one day than most do in a week. You have terrific kids and just the best toys. Kuddos!

[@americannomad513]

Man, you sure do like Lawry's! Ha ha. You got an awesome place there.

[@lenty2000]

Awesome! I love these vids

[@rebelsyelll]

Another fine video. Thank you for sharing. :o)

[@t.w.milburn8264]

'morning, Joe; Great productive trip 2 the tent. Hoping your Harvest is a success. Thanks 4 sharing with us here, Friend. Happy Trails From The Maritimes In Canada ATB Terry " GOD BLESS "

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

T.W. Milburn Thank you Terry. I love it up there. I am going back up this weekend.

[@t.w.milburn8264]

JoeandZachSurvival Don't 4get 2 bring us along ?

[@ryanfranck5494]

Looks like you had a busy weekend! I just put together another new stand last weekend as well! Always gotta have plenty of choices! Those stands can sometimes be a pain in the ass the put up yourself! I cheated and raised my buddy up along with the stand with the loader bucket on the tractor! Lol! Cabin also great too! I need to get bunk bed built in my cabin and only have a few weeks til gun season! Last year I finished the interior of our cabin but ran out of time getting beds built so we slept on the recliners during deer season! Lol not gonna happen this year!!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Ryan Franck I wish I had the forklift up there, that would have made fun work putting up that last stand lol. You better get your butt moving on them bunk beds. Even after a 12 pack of beer the recliners get uncomfy. Thanks for the comment Ryan. Joe

[@laskeeter318]

I enjoy all of your videos and look forward to new additions. I must comment on your camp setup with a tent. Absolutely awesome and very homey. So when do wife and I get an invite. We are in Louisiana and gave seen where you get to our state every so often. We are located in the Alexandria area, actually just across the river in a small town called Pineville. Have been to your state a couple times to visit the VA Hospital in Minneapolis for various training, etc. That's one cold area! And they were wanting me to move there to take charge of an outpatient facility in St. Paul. Nice chatting and keep the vids coming enjoy them tremendously. Bob (aka LASkeeter318)

[@backcountrypipe]

Great video as usual, and as always love the tent videos. Looks like you had a busy weekend but your already for deer season. Our season opens here on the 31st and can't wait. Sounds like a cool radio show, sometime for a laugh I tune into Minnesota radio, just to hear what's going on. LOL Have a good one Mark

[@eds1994fatboy]

Was hoping to see the off grid wind mill and solar panel install....

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

Ah! Sweet solitude! Just a tad bit envious. ;) I finally did have a chance to get away this last weekend. Wasn't as nice a set up as what you have, I was in a hotel room (not my dime). But I was mostly alone, which is nice once in a while.

[@interstateoutdoors5578]

Love grouse hunting in northern MN! Shot 9 between myself and my grandpa.

[@theokee8957]

Love watching your videos on fishing, hunting, and your projects. The only problem is I get hungry after watching you whip up the cabin meals. Ha! I noticed you guys say you bring your sleeping bags out to your stands, you guys just kick your boots off and jump in them or throw them over the top you? My daughters go out with me but they always get cold sleeping bag might work for them.

[@gundog4314]

Great vid Joe! I wonder if it's possible to put a 1 inch hole in the kitchen/ bathroom wall and run the hose straight to the pot instead of carrying it back and forth. That pump shouldn't have anyproblem moving that water. Cheers!

[@garyveitch235]

hi Joe, just found your channel, great ! but I'm glad you and " cattle whizz" cleared up it was a canvas tent, not a Swiss chalet ! lol keep em coming buddy, atb veitchy64

[@livelife4471]

The Minnesota woods is a good looking woods. I think the woods in New Brunswick has a few more spruce and fir than what you are showing in Minnesota. Nonetheless, the countryside looks very nice.

[@PermacultureHomestead]

damn I want some steak and eggs now... thx for the share.

[@bitblitz14]

I love your videos but I have never known that you guys are in a natural forest would it happen to be superior national forest because I love it up there so much

[@gopha533]

now that's a t-bone! Ha!

[@ROADWARRIORMUSTANG]

+gopha533 I know I almost ate my mouse pad

[@surender4ify]

Surprised you don't keep your water for your shower on the heating stove.

[@georgediridoni1746]

Would you please do a video on how you're canning your butter

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I have a video on this channel as well as my other channel called Northern Seclusion on how I can the butter.

[@camanojim]

I always have such a good time at the tent I just hate leaving. Lets get back soon!!! by the way, we need a PIG UPDATE!!

[@lorenmcgilvrey9124]

Joe, I discovered your site this summer (2014) and I'm always glad to see new postings. You guys have such an awesome set up! I just love your tent/cabin. How far from where you live/work to the tent? I'd guess from watching all the vids you are in the construction business as a living. Keep up the great work, I know it's a lot to make these, but I really enjoy them. I'll never get to Minnesota, but every time I watch your vids, I'm there. lgm

[@davidfoos8396]

I've noticed that you never use the hot water reservoir attached to your stove. Why is that?

[@johnroos5807]

[e-mail] David Foos, I think that the water boils off very fast. It's probably there in case the power goes out. Nice last name! Semper Fidelis

[@cigarcaptain]

Thanks for taking us along. How is your dads cabin shaping up?

[@madamesophia2004]

Great video. I got some good ideas from you with the hanging shoes to warm by the stove from hooks and the woodbox. I'm wondering if it would help deter mice if you kept your pillows and bedding in the plastic bags that expensive blankets come in? I've generally found those bags cheap at second hand stores. How do you keep unwanted critters out of your tent anyway? Best wishes

[@mem7048]

As always, I love your videos and observations. However, judging from the amount of food you cook per meal, which one of your legs is hollow?

[@Ribbitmefoot]

I agree man, you eat too much !

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

M. Everett Munson LOL. I always have leftovers for lunch the next day. Thanks Marty.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Ribbitmefoot LOL. yea my real fat ass shows it. hahaha. Thank you. Joe

[@shamasi1968]

I was going to say that too...lol Joe you eat like my sons who are in the Marines..lol of course they have always eaten like that and not one spare ounce on them either. Color me green.

[@dapappacn]

Damn, man! How can you keep so slim with all that grub? Amazing!

[@scottmueller2871]

ya ive never been a fan of those ladders either or those climbing screws my father always used a ladder stand and thats what i use when i hunt

[@iamaguywithloans7125]

Awesome video, your tree stand thing with the wooden armrest and gun rest is genus's. I took off mine and put up wood and a tree branch for my tree stand. Also how many acers do you hunt on and do you own that land.

[@terryteague164]

joe, it must really be hard to leave sometimes, i love the place! coupla questions....how does a guy your size eat so much? lol and, are you still using that generator for power?

[@metalwing750]

Do you guys ever do deer drives?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Tinger23 We have in the past but the area up there is so vast that its best to sit and wait or walk around and hope. Thank you. Joe.

[@metalwing750]

I live in MN (mankato) , but we go up hunting by upper red lake every year my bro shot a 190 class non typical two years ago .

[@byranbevins3226]

Awesome vidds keep em comeing.

[@sqwrrl]

Very nice! How often do you go out to your cabin, and have you had any experience with vandals, theft?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Carlota Chmielewski I have never had any trouble at all with theft but its a very secluded place. From the Sunday after Thanksgiving until all the snow melts which is around mid april to mid may you can not drive to the tent, you have to cross the lake ice on snowshoes or a snowmobile. I have had several times I have been up there for over a week and never saw another soul. I get to the cabin more in the fall with hunting and I guess I get up there when I can. I think I will be going up within the next couple weeks. I have over a hundred videos on the tent in that playlist and if you watch them and the dates you can see when I get up there and when it slows down. Thank you. Joe

[@loooseunit]

Hey Joe, was wondering with all that ply you're using inside ...is it treated , got a few jobs to do inside using ply in dampish areas ,have been told by some treated ply can be toxic inside , but others say it is OK .....loose

[@jeffnordengren3797]

Three things. First how do you know when your shower water is just right and not too hot? Second, I noticed your computer was there, you don't have Internet there do you? And finally how are the pigs doing? Watching this made me feel like I spent the weekend with ya. Keep the vids coming please....

[@cattlewiz7219]

I love your tent video's! I was just wondering if your tent is still canvas on the outside? or if its a regular wood cabin now?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

CattleWiz Still canvas and it is holding up well. Thank you. Joe

[@dstorm7752]

That kind of door is good for viewing the outdoors, but a burglar can see in and break the glass, reach in, and unlock the deadbolt.

[@jayrich2744]

Oh btw u eat a lot too he he he !!!

[@landondavis2988]

you need to do another hobby farm update soon

[@bobinmissouri]

Have you had any snow yet for October 2015? Been busy getting caught up on your videos. hope you get 1 this year. i drew in to a managed deer hunt for 2 does add they don't count for regular deer season so this year I am hoping to get some deer so far deer14 me 0 lol

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+bobinmissouri No snow yet Bob but I am up at the tent right now and the radio says possible snow flurries tonight. Thank you. Joe

[@3flashcan]

Hey , I couldn't find on old videos . But what are you using to pump the water so you can take showers at your cabin. Nice job builting it.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

3flashcan a rv or travel trailer pump

[@williambreen5091]

wish I lived up there. do you ever fish besides ice fishing

[@bitblitz14]

yes he does all the time if you would check out his videos he has many where he open water fishes

[@cetuspa]

That was awesome, something so relaxing and enjoyable about watching others work. I feel like you got a whole lot done in 22 minutes all I did was sit on my butt.....,

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

cetuspa LOL. great comment. Thhank you. Joe

[@dbcooper692]

you guys sure take a lot of showers my goodness?

[@michaelduschane2495]

Heyn Joe, I was thinking of buying land in Laporte Hubbard County, Minnesota because of price and two 18.55 Acres. I live in Southern California and plan to use this land for vacation about six times a year. Is ther any advice you could pass on to me about this land after I purchase? Thank you.

[@filbnineseventwo7410]

Hello, do you hunt on the Federal Land? Ever have issues with people hunting next to you?

[@Shamevideos123]

Went grouse hunting last week in superior nat'l forest. I shot two and my brother shot three

[@409mark]

will there come a time when the tent becomes your full time home l mean it.ll no longer be a tent by then right

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

william burgin Watch the next video I will be posting in a couple days. The tent will always be the tent as long as its up there because its a tent. In two years I think I will be building a real cabin. At that point it will be "The Cabin" because it will be a cabin. LOL. Thank you. Joe

[@409mark]

JoeandZachSurvival lam glad to hear it l enjoy your video.s very much

[@rhiahl3511]

You need a bird dog. We're planning a litter next year. The father has 4 Brittany Hall of Famer's in his background. Instinctive dog. :)

[@danilocarra2602]

Why don't you use a bow

[@dbcooper692]

how come no pork steaks

[@jayrich2744]

Do u ever relax? I mean really relax especially in the tent?! You're constantly moving doing things what's the use of the tent if u don't ever relax?! I bet you are doing things even during your sleep! At least mentally u do !
