Skiing the Wilds! ~ 4 Day Winter Camping with Tarp & Backpack

Touring skiing adventure through the Central European wilderness. For 4 days I trek through wild forests, up and down snowy slopes in the Polish mountains, on the border with Ukraine! In my backpack just some simple camping gear: a tarp, bivy bag, snow shovel, etc... The weather is turning stormy...

Respect to this guy who bring the real content back 2 KZbin filled up by shit content by way bigger channels. Isn't this the quality we want from all the videos we love to watch?

[@MrFlixibu]

that ccamerawork, back & forth in the snow without a cccameraman or second person... you're a menace!!! great stuff, music, cutting, storyline. thx bro

[@CFCNOTBUMMER]

Jeez this dude is so tough, Bear Grylls aint even in it

[@ddoherty5956]

Needs to eat a few pies as a safety net incase he gets in trouble.

[@marcusfridh8489]

Yes, unlike bear grylls, he didnt even check into the Holiday Inn LOL

[@lurker665]

It wouldn't be Smooth Gefixt without stuff falling... or catching fire. Beautiful video, you have improved so much over the years but stayed authentic.

[@Otis1953]

Given the terrain and conditions you encountered, the equipment you had - your Cinematography is amazing! Well done

[@rowanpomeroysoos6339]

You make, we watch! Rock on guys ❤

[@occamsrazor7939]

I love the sound of the wind at night when I am trying to go to sleep.

[@Cloax]

Hey beeeeear!!!

[@edwardpage667]

God I love the snow

[@harrison9680]

Been watching you guys for years always waiting for you guys to upload. I wish you could be in survival mode always ahha

[@WoodsmanEarl]

Smooth gefixt is Brilliant !

[@anastasiosmiaris2119]

I see this video, i click instantly, great work :)

[@anastasiosmiaris2119]

It would be cool if you did a Greece camping trip, anyway hope your doing well

[@27Redone]

Always love theirs videos, real survival and struggle

[@392moose]

I live in a city and i love watching these videos to give me a look at all the amazing things the wilderness holds within, i hope one day i can have this opportunity myself, thank you sincerely for your content❤️

[@countrybowwow]

Hello, my friend Your video is awesome and fantastic. Thanks for sharing. Have a happy day.👍🏼

[@RyanMclain]

Looking forward to this for sure. Thanks

[@saltycapn149]

Videos like this always remind me of the reason I hike. The sigh at 11:34 is precisely why I love hiking. You breathe and realize the world is still magical at that moment. You can find moments like this in your backyard, but it just takes time to slow down and open your eyes. Please continue making these amazing videos Smooth and hopefully you can continue to show everyone how take a moment and enjoy the magic.

[@quietlistner7329]

Wow You Can Move along Pretty Fast On Those ski's ,Sure Looked Cold Though.

[@svjetlanstefanovic1129]

Love watching your videos, that are real survival.Hello from Serbia and stay safe...

[@AwesomeFish12]

Glad you didn't need the bear spray. Thanks for this entertaining video.

[@raylambert7227]

I've been solo backpacking only a few times...this kind of wilderness solo backpacking in white-out conditions would freak me out. I'm pretty surprised you're doing this solo. But thanks for the video. It's pretty spectacular.

[@traceythetruth]

Some of the best content on youtube. Well done. Love these videos.

[@NexusPNS]

Thank you brother for sharing this amazing video with us

[@_bigbuddhacheese9369]

missed the bus after all that xD

[@Bearrascus]

Oh Julius my friend, after a long time I finally found the time to catch up on some videos of yours! Makes me wanna go on another trip with you again, let me know when you might visit Switzerland again. And the quality of your content is still amazing, keep it up!

[@katjavanleeuwen6655]

I enjoyed this video. What an endurance you have, Julius!

[@gesithasgewissa]

Julius, your resilience is awe-inspiring, much respect to you! Really enjoyed the video

[@TressaZimmerman]

I am so glad you are able to share such great content. Thanks

[@CrazyMFx1]

This is a perfect showcase of the live i wanna live💯

[@richardwright9563]

You are brave being out there on your own with just a spay knowing there could be hungry bears around I wouldn't be able to sleep at all

[@jerrysponagle3881]

Hibernation

[@Krwekrw]

I like the work of Czech tourist club, that invanted the markings🙂'

[@bartoszczechowicz5372]

Yo Julius! You are very brave man . Not because of bear activity and relying on the "beer spray":) only because the border patrols. They may be a bit sppoky in this uncertain days. Anyway you survived again and done so well on your own, in yet another amazing adventure in my mother country. I am sitting on my sofa in London apartament and I am well jell of your experience in such a wild part of Bieszczady Mountains. Since I watched the super stunt which should break the internet, when you and your cousin broke the ice and survived the night after , I am a massive fan of you guys. I think the TV contract will land on your doorstep very soon. You defo deserved to be recognised as a proper survivalist , craftsman and video producer. I am still waiting for the proper roundhouse living experience promised :P Take care bro and keep doing what you are doing. Thank you ever so much for that.

[@SmoothGefixt]

Border patrol that kind vicious yeah?':) Thanks for the supportive wordss:)

[@greggmouritzen7478]

Yeah, wearing tactical clothing on the edge of a WAR ZONE, is probably not a great idea.

[@redactedcanceledcensored6890]

@@greggmouritzen7478 or maybe it is a great idea since that makes him harder to see, I don't know :D

[@Enderlad]

Your videos always pop up at the top or my recommendations cause they know how hyped I am!

[@SmoothGefixt]

That is great news xD

[@UzumakiBarz]

Living the life, as one should! A true example and inspiration for many you are! Gotta love that spade cutting through the snow like buttercake ;)

[@DaleStLouis-xb5mx]

Great video! You are bear brave (and border guard brave too.) Eating away from sleeping -- really hard in the cold. I once did a float/fishing trip with 6 people in 3 canoes in bear country in early spring, not as cold as this, and we set up a sleeping camp and cooking camp a ways apart, and moved almost every day. We had good bear bag, food way up tree. But we were even told not to keep our cooking clothes in the tent! We cooked two meals a day so whoever cooked changed clothes a lot, storing clothes was a pain, and the clothes we fished in smelled like fish so how is that any better?? I am afraid your food back on a stick is not a good bear solution. Bear will knock down the stick for sure.

[@sineadconran4964]

❤Smooth

[@jefferybublitz7968]

Hey Julius, here's a tough one for you to share with us your viewers. Show us on th mountains, in th winter time all of those edibles that you can find, so that th lost skier, can gather some form of food source for an increase of moral, as well as a boost of his energy needs. Thank you!!! B-Strong, B n Christ.

[@Naglis91]

crazy man, crazy :D

[@turtleduck2317]

Leipe video Julio

[@SmoothGefixt]

Ben jij dat nou???? XD

[@turtleduck2317]

Maybe

[@selahschumpelt6302]

Did you dig a cold-well in your shelter. I didn't see that.

[@SmoothGefixt]

Not really bothered I gues having pretty good sleeping bag, in the natural winter shelters we often do though. You notice a big difference?

[@feldgraufox4927]

Wonder how many times he's knocked one out alone out there in the woods 😂

[@redactedcanceledcensored6890]

I can't see much of your sleep system. So you had a thermal undershirt, a cotton undershirt and that jacket and that's it for clothing? I can see what looks like a bivouac (bivy) bag, but I guess you had at least a mattress.

[@arek-krakiewicz]

What is the Atomic ski and binding model?

[@Funkfuzzz]

Vetttt

[@feldgraufox4927]

Turns out I've missed out on 5 videos over last 5 months lol

[@tgziceblood]

WHEN are you going to give us the Medieval Round house Videos you have been Promising us for over a Year now LOL ?

[@SmoothGefixt]

Atleast when I don't promise it anymore, i hope you ll be surprisingly delighted when it does happen. Real sorry about that not going to plannn..

[@Escape_normality]

Could you buy bear spray in Poland? Or did you buy in Romania?

[@SmoothGefixt]

Online, trip got delayed because of doing that last minute

[@JapanScott1]

Could you make a short video talking about your ski gear? Your skis look like normal downhill, skis, and your boots look like normal downhill boots, but you don’t seem to be fully attached to the skis.

[@SmoothGefixt]

A full gear video is planned of this trip, but if you think there is special interest in the skiing gear perhaps I should make a short about that(?)

[@williamsimpson73]

no self respecting bear would attack you for a bowl of lentils lol

[@SmoothGefixt]

Lollzzs

[@OldBlindDougArtist]

When did you do this trip ?

[@SmoothGefixt]

First half of march, sometime

[@WoodsmanEarl]

When is the next video coming?

[@SmoothGefixt]

Sunday again (*likely 😅)

[@jacobbell6608]

Yellow snow spotted at 14:00

[@theonewiseoldman]

Dude, you must keep the boots loose in walking position, they should feel like your sofa at home. Never close them as you did, you only close them when you ski down a hill. Greetings from Austrian SAR

[@GamerBoyCharlie]

I love your work bro but can't have money watch your all videos 😢

[@SmoothGefixt]

Dont completely understand this comment?

[@Village.life1]

🏔️🌨️❄️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😉👍🌹🇮🇷

[@thomasbryson2757]

If you think this makes up for cheating me out of the round house. You are mistaken.

[@kirivanyam5969]

20 seconds 😅

[@Wild.win.]

Least yours is planned out Any situation I've been in is not Which makes survival even harder

[@SmoothGefixt]

Thats true! This though, wasn't really survival content in my book😅

[@saleemgujjar9171]

Very painful trip be aware this kind of trip

[@biggiesmalls7259]

The whole thing is wayyyy too dark. Shame really. The music is beautiful

[@SmoothGefixt]

You mean exposure wise, the video footage bightness?

[@biggiesmalls7259]

@@SmoothGefixt Yeah, sorry l. Exposure is too dark I'm afraid. Still a good watch

[@matthiasengh7935]

Dude, you need to get your priorities straight. 1 pack an extra layer of warms in case you get wet, 2 don't make fire inside and on top of your life sustaining shelter especially when you didn't secure it properly and it's windy 3 have an extra map and if you're not going to be careful about your water source have breakfast that doesn't require water and 5 bring a lighter ffs. I really like your content but you are a little too inconsistent to have so little margins, be safe

[@matthiasengh7935]

And check the weather forecast 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@matthiasengh7935]

Also don't make up this stuff about bears, an area with frequent bear attacks don't make up your own logic. You have no clue about bears they have incredibly good noses

[@samuelshuck1559]

Hey, since ya have to spend the night again to wait for the next bus, that fallen tree not far off with a tarp is an easy build bro!

[@SmoothGefixt]

Haha

[@Studzilla-is-here]

Too dark for me. Need mor brightness for some of us to see the experience

[@mdsign001]

it's important to be aware of others needs, feelings and vulnerabilities. If only someone had been aware of yours, someone woke enough to care ... too bad there's No Woke Here 😉
