Really enjoyed this Scotty. My best memories are camping with my dad. He's 86 now and we still sit and talk abt our memories. I'm just like him, love the outdoors and camping in nature. Something l also passed onto my kids as a single mum. Obviously this is where you got your love of camping from too. Thank you

[@robertyoungblutt6999]

Scotty I am now 59 and my dad has been passed for a long time. Like you I can remember the family camp. It is now my turn to take the grandchildren camping. With your dad just cherish these moments. Thanks for sharing

[@SJC49]

Your grandkids will think you’re the best for taking them camping and they will always have the same great memories you do!

[@dunno6442]

Man wish I could go camping with my dad again, this was nice to watch.

[@danitron69]

That was a heart warming vid bro. Definitely get the old boy out for another camp asap. Maybe smaller hills this time ;) Give ya dad a rod and a beer and a chair and let him have his power nap until that rod bends over.

[@soniadowney7427]

He's got a lot of time left, i hope 😃

My son watched this with me and yelled 'that's me and you in the future daddy!'. Mate! This is an awesome vid! Plus a kiss from your dad towards then end of the video, PRICELESS! Well done!

Scotty, you are so blessed to have such a wonderful dad. Make the most of him while you still have him, love to you both

Maaate! Best vid yet, your Dad's gold. My Dad gave me the love for hiking and camping, wish I had done more with him over the years. Still time, those times with your Dad are precious! Loved it!

[@michaelbarton3530]

Scotty I thoroughly appreciate you posting that trip with your Dad. Made me long to see mine again. Lost him to cancer 7yrs ago. The kiss from your pop at the end was priceless! Thanks for stirring up good memories!

Love to see an old bloke n his boy having a grand time in the outback, love the wholesome content. Nothing better than seeing you in your happy place and letting your old boy tag along. Keep up the great content Scotty, you're slowly becoming an Aussie icon I can get around. Much love for your channel mate!

"The Apple doesn't fall far from the tree"... You both are so darn cute it's ridiculous 🤩 love love love this upload Scotty and dad 💯❤️

[@rosemaryshepherdsmith5110]

Loved this vid, I took my dad on an adventure at93 to 96 after mum passed at nearly 94. Road trip in an RV. I used to swag it everywhere before. Dad passed with prostrate and bone cancer in Weipa where he wished to be as loved the heat. Still miss him and mum, amazing people. Grief is a strange companion. 😊

[@westralianoffroad]

Mate your old man is living his best life. Uggs, a blanket, he’s doing him all the power to him. Be yourself folks. Live life. I wish I could get my old man out camping.

[@thomasp.4649]

When i was younger I camped with my parents and I remember this times to this day. Camping with your dad is a great idea .👍 Greetings from Germany !

[@mcake1234]

Enjoy your times with your dad mate. It's been 27yrs since I lost mine. I'd give anything for an hour of doing that with him.

[@a24-45]

So nice to meet your dad! what a lovely man, awesome that you took him out, definitely do it again. I recognised the PNG flag on his beanie right away - I visited Papua on my own 5 decades ago, but it had a huge impact on me. It says a lot about your dad that he is into that stunning country and its amazing people. I have never seen such huge and old casuarina trees before; you're right, it's like a fairyland, or a Tolkien story. Thanks once more for taking us with you.

[@PhoenixIsTrash]

Never underestimate how much stuff like this means to the old fellas. I took my dad into upper Colo (a cave camp on the river I located from one of your videos) near on 2 years ago, and he still talks about it to this day.

[@get7025]

You honor all Fathers by honoring your Father and sharing it with us. I never had a son. But from a previous relationship that failed I was a Father to two teenage boys. They never had a Father in their life. We still have a good relationship even though their Mother and I haven’t been together for years. I am blessed. Enjoy every moment with your Dad. A sacred bond. 🙏

[@ianfranke9701]

Awesome vid mate. Im catching up with your vids I have missed. I'm 58 and lost my Dad 30 years ago when he was 61. I lost it with the hug and kiss. Cherish what you have guys. Funnily my Scout Leader name is Gandalf and this made me laugh.

[@centaurusalpha4248]

That one hit close to home mate! you make the most of your time with the old fella mate and ask all the questions you have ever wondered before the answers go away with him. He and you seem to have a great relationship mate! please cherish it hey! bless ya buddy!

[@JustOneKnight]

How absolutely awesome I wish i could do this with my dad, unfortunately he has dementia. Beautiful father son moments you portray. Great Video and beautiful scenery to boot. Thank you for sharing this.

[@MyLittleFarmhouse]

Cheers to your dad .. his eyes said said it all 💕👍🏽

[@kristenmurphy4122]

My dad is not in my life. So, therefore, I have a crush on your dad. When he hugged and kissed you I was so jealous. What a gift.

[@DebOxy]

How nice to meet ya dad Scotty, hope to see him out with you again, maybe some beach camping minus hills next time. Sure loved that beanie lol, could see him rocking an Akubra Hat tho 😉

[@andyprice4696]

My dad is I’ll with cancer and has lost a lot of his mobility. He will be 70 in a few years. I would give anything to be able to do the things we used to do. Time passes and we adapt and I’m grateful he’s still here. Lots of people here have lost their dad. Just a word of advice that can apply to everyone. Make the best of each day while you have the chance. Time will take that chance away from us all. Some earlier than others. Spend time with those you love and cherish those memories. In the end, it’s all you will have left. A memory to look back and smile about. Ps…. That was one of the most beautiful spots I have ever seen

[@shantishanti1949]

Thank you - I loved this video. Memories created - never forgotten- so special for you both. ❤❤❤ He looked comfy not homeless Scotty- he fathered a great kid. Be proud.

Mate, this is honestly my favourite video of yours. Really makes me miss my old man and wish I could have spent more time with him and do these kinds of things. If I could give you one piece of advice. . . Do stuff like this as much as you can (not even for the videos) because you cant get missed time and opportunities back. Loved this vid 1000%

The scene of your dad drinking a warm drink and looking at the river reminded me of my own dad and the times we shared together. He's been gone since 2008.

Good job Scott bringing your pop out into the bush. My father used to take my brothers and I when we were kids. Last time he took me, was his 50th birthday in 1982.

[@intricacy9490]

A very special experience...well done. I could easily be your Dad's twin due to having the same age, hair and homeless look. I can relate to him being confused...one of the bastards about getting older... simple things can confront you. However, one thing....when it happens don't say ...oh, its easy (otherwise, you won't be having an issue)...instead say... I can understand the problem....let's see what we can do. You can see it bothered him, tho of course you just have to laugh it off. My Dad, now 97, also introduced me to camping. A few years ago I took him camping along the Darling. He loved it, especially the stars at night. He hadn't been camping for about 50 yrs.

[@therealrhysedwards]

So special. Father and Son time.

I just had to watch your father-son camping video. My son and I have "planned" such an adventure, but we are still talking about it.

Well done Scotty. I warmly approve of this inter-generational adventure. Thanks for sharing.

Love this video Scotty. Glad you could spend time with your dad. I took my son backpacking with me back in 2007 to Pete Lake and Mirror Lake. Slept along the PCT in the PNW. At Pete Lake we saw a star filled sky. Saw the spiral arms of the Milky Way and even satellites orbiting. Woke up at Mirror Lake to the sound of Elk Calls. Talked with PCT thru hikers on their way to Canada. It was memories of a lifetime. Cherrish the time with your dad. Can't wait to see the next one. Cheers mate.

Settle down mate, leave him alone. You can't compliment the bloke and have a dig at him about something clearly unintended and inoccuous all in the same paragraph. I'm sure they, as we all are are aware of the homelessness problem and have empathy for those sleeping rough. If you are currently, or have recently been homeless I get it, otherwise just don't try to educate the bloke, it's condescending.
