Greg! There aren't enough like buttons for the song at the end. Not to mention that truly epic bowdrill trick. (Im a Scout leader and will show that to the kids for sure!) I've been watching all your videos with my two young boys and we all really look forward to them. Keep it up man! We're in your corner.

Thanks Tod it works well

[@irishwezel]

I like the "Handicap" Bow drill.. i was actually kicked out of 4H many moons ago because being Handicapped(65% paralyzed on my right side) i couldn't do the bow drill. I love the idea of using a force that is already there

Watching every episode! Thank you Greg for sharing this experience with us all who cant make it to the Rockies. I know you are doing this for multiple reasons more than likely, but the longest lasting one will be the inspiration of thousands of people to go live and experience something like this instead of sit on their couch.

[@kimcurtis9366]

When I was in Alaska, as a 14 year old kid, I remember going out and dipping a bucket of water from the stream. You'd have to let it sit and warm up for an hour before you could comfortably drink it without getting a brain freeze. The water was coming right off the glaciers and it was VERY COLD! I KNOW what you mean, Greg, about the water being cold! Clear and breathtakingly cold and no worries about giardia or any of the other bad stuff! Best to boil it, though! Wish I had been catching fish as big as those you guys are catching at that lake! I've watched all the episodes, so far and sharing them on my FB page and enjoying them immensely! I'm 67 now, and disabled so, this is me vicariously enjoying your adventure!

[@jwk4567]

I smiled from ear to ear when you caught that fish on the set line Greg. Way to go brother! Cheers from the Okanagan.

OMG that'd be amazing.

[@MaliciousSRT]

I am actually shocked this hasn't been done yet. There is a huge population of folks that don't know how to use a computer (older people) that would LOVE LOVE LOVE this organic no BS content. Put it on any TV channel during a good time spot and it would explode, mark my words. Doesn't even have to be discovery, any channel. It would need to be cut down a bit, at least initially. Greg would be on the late night TV interview circuit within 3 months and be a spokesman for all the outdoor gear he could do. Guaranteed.

[@SenderBudYerGood]

I personally think big cable networks don't deserve someone like Greg. Plus when he's doing it his own way, he can continue to do it his own way. Once you sign the dotted line you're someone else' bitch who can be bossed around because now they got control over you with money. That would be no good.

Awesome your set line trap caught that fish, proves it's working, really ingenious if you analyse it.
