River Camping Under Highway Bridge

I found a great camping spot underneath a highway bridge. A beautiful river ran right beside the campsite and was the perfect place to hunker down and camp for the night. Some highway noise made it hit and miss overnight, but the white noise of the river made camping far more enjoyable than expected!

[@WestCoastWheelman]

Don't ever second guess your channel's genre decision, you didn't just pigeon hole yourself into low hanging fruit, you took an obscure niche side of KZbin and blew it up into the mainstream by making the best videos of the kind. You weren't the first but you're hands down the best! And as an islander (& trucker) I'm loving how I instantly recognize every spot you've been to lately! This one in particular I wouldn't worry about seeing anyone on that trail outside of summer tubing season or fall salmon fishing season. Now I'm just waiting to see myself driving by in my truck in one of your videos! (sorry if I woke you up at 4am)

[@cagneybillingsley2165]

i support this content, but at the same time i can't wrap my head around stealth camper's desire to sleep among human waste and detritus. i'd never want to camp close to civilization or well travelled trails. paranoia of digging into someone else's cathole or stepping on their log has been an ocd of mine.

[@Nathan_Johnson7723]

@@cagneybillingsley2165 it’s not a stealth campers choice to camp near civilization but they have to make do with what’s around them. If Steve wanted to camp off the grid he could easily do that but this is a lot more accessible and takes less preparation.

@@hellogoodbye1748 it may not be a choice where someone stealth camps because they’re doing it out of desperation, but for Steve he’s doing this for fun so he puts himself in these close to civilization scenarios.

After watching channels where they're camping with $800 in tents, sleep systems, backpacks, and cooking gear it's refreshing to come here and see Steve stomping on sticks for firewood.

Your camping videos take me back to what I did in my younger days. I'm 72 years old. In my 20's and 30's, I camped similar to this. I would camp in state and forestry parks locations that were not allowed. Most times, I didn't use a tent and had no fire. I left no trace that I was there. That was true camping. Your videos get me out there like the good old days. Thank you. If you're ever in the San Diego, Southern California area, look me up. I'll buy you dinner and talk about camping until we've both had enough.

[@nickbrown7700]

Can't believe it's been 3 years already! Congrats. It's been quite the adventure and I've appreciated the excitement, the sadness, and the growth. Keep up the forward momentum. You rock.

[@campingwithsteve]

Thanks Nick!

[@lololala785]

I love it when you stealth camp. Try not to be embarrassed about it and don’t let the haters get to you too much. You always leave the places better than when you left it! So neat!

[@lindy-nightowlparanormaltn]

Another Steve Masterpiece...the sound of the water, the view, your relaxed attitude -- the best! I wish I could find the words to tell you what you mean to us out here, you are truly one of a kind, and we always look forward to your next adventure. You may see it as just a simple overnight camp, but for those of us who aren't able to do what you do, it is a gift of sharing your adventures, enjoying nature, enjoying challenges, just enjoying life. Big hugs and love to you!

[@stiffmidget4036]

don't second guess yourself steve, these videos are wherever you wanna camp! "it's beneath you," they can stuff it. Make videos camping wherever you want! I wanna see it either way! Thank you for doing this brother, it's awesome to relax and watch one of your camping videos, and sometimes I learn stuff about survival and camping too! here's to you brother!

[@maurvir3197]

Every one of Steve's camping adventures are something I wanted to do when I was younger, but didn't have the courage to do.

[@manbearpig8691]

You are never to old to go to adventure land. I'm 75 and have several wilderness camping trips plan for this summer.

[@MickCampin-jp9kb]

Just got out of hospital after 8 weeks with Sepsis glad to be able to see Steve again regards from Sunderland UK.

[@LordNisse111]

I didn't even know you tried a "normal" camping channel, it's because of these quirky adventures that I love this channel so much. I'm sure as long as you do you, it will turn out great!

[@Maithiss]

I have to say, this channel is so fantastic and in a world of its own. You bring so much joy and adventure to all of us here. Canada is lucky to have you. Keep exploring and thank you for cleaning up after others. Cheers, Steve!

[@augie5970]

One of the only people on the surface of planet earth who can make camping under a bridge compelling. Keep it up Steve, You're amazing!

[@christinaphx]

You're on a bike trail. The bridges are meant for fast moving bikes with different weight distribution other than an upright, walking human. Very cool to watch bikers ride them! Love you, Steve! ❤

[@KenzertYT]

I literally cannot fall asleep at night without a Camping with Steve video playing in the background. And it's to the point where I wake up if the video stops playing. Thank you for everything Steve.

[@MrThatnativeguy]

I have trouble sleeping too and can totally relate

[@ljd8520]

Me too buddy 😂

[@AuntieD.]

Chronic Insomniac here. I've fallen asleep to the old Boondocking video many times. 😴🥰

[@youtubeis...]

Gentle whispering YT. Maria will take care of you.

[@TheIceisDry]

Steve I really enjoy sitting down and eating a meal with you. Watching your exploits into nature is so relaxing and you're a genuine soul. It's nice to have someone to see weekly so even if you are out there alone, please know that there are many people who enjoy a brief moment of your "company". Also the trash collecting guise you have is pretty cool, not does it help you stay under the radar, but you're also cleaning up these places, and that's really awesome.

[@Grosstradamus]

Steve is the best. Nice to see him so jovial in this episode. Truly the most wholesome content on the internet.

[@JefCollier]

A can't be the only one that raises their coffee mug whenever Steve offers up a cheers.

[@theofficialonecutstudio]

Steve, your show is a serious outdoors camping show. We are all here for and love whatever you do. I'm living vicariously through your vids because I don't have the guts to camp out under a bridge. Love it!

[@sharlakehoe6864]

So proud of you Steve for carrying on your life after your wife’s passing I’m sure it’s what she would want for you xx

[@oneseeker2]

I imagine he is carrying on, one breath at a time.

[@steveturner3999]

@@oneseeker2 You’ve got that right. Lost my wife of 41 years July 2021. It’s still one day at a time. So glad he’s got that smile back. I’m still trying to find mine.

[@onlyjesussaves840]

Yes, & to be born again in Jesus if he isn't. God Bless Sharla! :)

[@baronbokaj]

I love the scale of things, no bragging over expensive yachts, cars or whatever, just Steve doing stuff within reach of every adventurous person.

[@augustharter981]

I love that you always will pickup an area where you camp of all the garbage. It is a cool spot near a creek. You always make something good! Sleeping near a river , under a bridge and with a nice fire. Could ask for anything better😂!

[@imchronicallyme1339]

My Thursday is not complete until I get to watch camping with Steve. Makes my night at work in the ER so much better.

[@marcusrh20]

Watching camping with steve eases my soul after a long week at work 😊

[@robhamilton5057]

you are the Bob Ross of the unusual Camp sites. I don't really have much interest in camping but watch every episode! Love it. Hope you are doing well Steve.

[@bholdr----0]

Wow... That is a very prescient comparison, vis-a-vis how his presentation engages his audience in a way that is totally ingenious, friendly, open, and even comforting... The Bob Ross of stealth, hunkering down, bringing camping back to the people? Sure, I suppose can dig that. 🌲🌲🌲

[@mattbrown5511]

I love camping even after 18.5 years of being an Army grunt. I still go out, but to interesting places like Steve.

[@juggalo4life247]

The best medicine for the soul is to watch a camping with Steve video before bed.

[@mattheweburns]

The sound of water under bridges is so nice even on small creeks or rivers… You really can’t hear the cars if there’s water. For a few years, a friend of mine and me would meet up and hang out and smoke and drink under a bridge over a river like that, and it was just so peaceful.

[@JarodShapiro]

Words can't describe how good these videos make me feel everytime I watch.

[@shibby093]

Keep doing what you’re doing Steve. Your joy outdoors is our joy.

[@ashtonmellafont941]

Hope all is well Steve missed your awesome videos the last 2 weeks but understandable hope everything is going great

[@samir-hasanagic8981]

Really good location Steve. A bit of a hybrid between the stealther and a regular camping trip, but never boring with your narrative. You are the David Attenborough of camping.

[@freespirithippie6857]

Steve's camping adds so much joy to life. Thanks.

[@at0mly]

One of my favorite things about watching Steve's videos is hearing the complicated cover stories he cooks up and then never has to use.

[@kraigbarrett7483]

Hope you're doing well Steve, we love you

[@alyssaw7267]

We were cheering you on every log you crossed! I’m so glad that you didn’t fall! Thank you Steve and please take good care of yourself!

[@lukerogerss]

Let’s get him to 2 million subscribers!!! I love watching camping with Steve! I grew up camping with my family my whole childhood life and some of his styles bring back so many fun memories!

[@FatalChaz33]

He's added another 250,000 subs very quickly - and deservedly.

[@some1234321]

This "low hanging fruit" has been my saviour these past few years. Not being able to escape the grind as much as I want to, I'm always looking forward to Thursday nights to relax and unwind with Steve. It doesn't get any better than this!

[@andrewjackson5127]

This is by far the best spot I've seen you camp in.

[@alaskansummertime]

I think I'm actually doing this for a good part of this summer. I think Steve is my spirit animal. Been in Alaska 20 years and never really got out to see the entire state.

[@therealbigfoot3076]

Rip

[@burakuc49]

Hey man. I grew up without a father, and i have always been a camping lover. Dont have the opportunities you have for now and i live in a difficult country in the middle east. Just wanted to let you know i look up to you, im not a long time follower but i can say i love you and support you will all my heart. Im in my 20's now. Im so proud of everything you do. You inspire me not by just camping but by being your lovely self. Please dont ever stop. I hope i can meet you one day and camp with you . love and respect. Be good big bro steve.

[@ADAM-tx4nv]

Hey Burak, God bless you brother, best regards from Brazil

[@FurnaceFuneral84]

You know you got over 1 million fans of this channel you can go camping with too! You should come to WA state best camping ever!

[@jo18533]

Hey Burak, what country do you live in?

[@jackbaxter-williams8059]

Whoa. Amazing perspective. I'm in the pacific northwest. I'd go camping with you, as I'm sure most of these people would

[@SinaloaTacos]

Beautiful!

[@CihaPet]

I think this was one of my favorites. The water scenery and tranquility of the surroundings, more the nature side than the freeway side obviously, just really looked like fun.

[@joeyadams8750]

Was really looking forward to a video

[@mikereviewsit4u]

That exciting moment when you see a new video from Steve! Leave it to Steve to leave his camping spot in a better shape than when he arrives. Classic stealth camping episode, keep up the great work Steve! 😁

[@IDrawToothpicks]

Your videos make a difference. You’re the most unique person I’ve found on any platform I’ve been on. Videos are humorous yet relaxing and I get to see places I would never see if you hadn’t been to them. You don’t ever try too hard. You just be yourself. You don’t play a character. Not a lot of people on KZbin or anywhere can say that ❤

[@td5046]

I have had to sleep in a graveyard years ago in fall. It was so incredibly cold and the ground was hard. The next time I had to camp in an emergency I was digging my own latrine and bending a small tree for a seat. I had visual blockage via bushes. I was cooking my own food and constantly improved my site until I found a place to go. Steve's videos do actually help those who may find themselves without shelter.

[@jgarner1104]

I think it's pretty neat that you're living the life you do, camping and enjoying yourself. Keep it up, Steve

[@orif9607]

Those who critics others are not worth your time. I journey around the UK and often find myself looking at places where I imagine I see you sat with a step two in hand. Keep having fun.

[@SnarkfishMan]

Thanks Steve. As an older guy who is relegated to car camping, I got a Marmot 6p Limestone tent and a couple of cots for my wife and I. We're heading out next weekend, weather depending. Thank you for inspiring me to get back out there and enjoy the outdoors! Godspeed 🙏🏻

[@marcoantoniogalindolucches8085]

Steve is our national treasure 🇨🇦 It's always great to see these videos, good, simple and clean fun. Everytime I go walking around and see spots like that, I think Steve would really appreciate camping here ! Cheers from Quebec and keep up the amazing content, you're awesome!!! 😎😎😎Hunker down!!!!!!!!!

[@alextheis1123]

I found your channel as a suggestion when I was watching Stobe videos a few years ago. Never thought anyone would create videos that gave me peace with a sense of inspiration and sanity like Jim, but you, my Canadian friend, have done it. I get tremendous joy and mental solace watching Camping with Steve. And this has been a particularly difficult week, but you showed up with perfect timing. Thank you! 😊

[@desertation]

rip to a real one, stobe ruled

[@patfinn8859]

Sure would like to see another video soon.
