I just really started watching all this camping content, I am loving it. So well done. I have been binge watching your videos along with Lost Lakes and The Lazy Camper. You guys do such a great job of filming and storytelling. Thank you.

[@jasperbarker438]

You should check out Zachary Fowler and Greg ovens they make similar content

Not that I would do anything Steve Wallis would do, but I LOVE watching his videos.

[@kentuckyhiker7071]

Great video!! You had me laughing so hard with the segment trying to find a good sleeping spot!! Thanks for sharing, awesome stuff!!

[@silby77]

I love the humor he adds to his videos. Fellow Kentuckian here!

[@XanderBudnick]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@MHarenArt]

When you said your meal prep was somewhat ambitious, my first thought was "hey, what else are you going to be doing out there in the middle of nowhere? You've got plenty of time to be an ambitious campfire cook!" I'm sure it was worth it. That meal looked totally awesome!!! Your time lapse of the stars was MUCH appreciated. I love seeing those. Your videos have quickly become one of my top favorites!

[@XanderBudnick]

Might as well eh - and Im happy to hear that :D

[@OpinionatedScents]

I laughed my ass off.... the kiss to Brad and the dingle berries straight from the butt.... I cannot. 🤣🤣🤣

[@IsaakWhitmey]

Hey man ever since you mentioned that you decided to become sober over a year ago now, it’s really inspired me to do the same. I love camping, and seeing you enjoy the little things out in the woods is definitely helping me get through this. Thanks brother from British Columbia 🙏🏼😁

[@kerrydai6142]

How could anyone ever get bored of this content.

[@Catmoore60]

I always get hungry watching your videos. Some of the best camping fare anywhere.

[@harv21]

Patiently waiting for those aerial shots of the landscape with the calming music😌 great video once again my friend

[@XanderBudnick]

I kinda forgot I had a drone

[@zoeenglandsupporter6478]

I’ve become so addicted to these videos. As a mum of severely autistic twins, which will need my forever care, I will never get the chance to do this. But this takes me away just for a short while. I just pretend to be there !

[@raffkayy]

Man gives us people who can't camp, at least a bit of the joy of camping, thanks brother 🙏 great video 💯

[@paulcavigliano6388]

A couple of weeks ago one of your videos randomly showed up in my recommendations. Since then I've been kinda living vicariously through your videos. 30yrs ago I had my own adventures, but now that I'm older and disabled I'm no longer able to do things like this anymore, unfortunately. Thanks for sharing and reminding me how much fun it is to rough it in nature.

[@adrian_ad]

When a man in the wood's cooks better food than me in a kitchen. Love the vids!

[@Erin_Wilson_Studios]

Super grateful for the care you put into getting great audio.

[@liammoulder2838]

Loving all the videos recently, you're really killing the weekly uploads. Keep up the good work : ))

[@XanderBudnick]

Just trying to get back on the grind after being sick and finshing a few other projects

[@bigosito4052]

You sir are now my favorite . Love your videos there always fun to watch . But this one just made my day with laughter. I never camp out alone before but because of your videos it’s now my favorite thing to due. Thank you 🙏

[@Johnnydazguy]

The perfect birthday present- a Xander Budnick video to watch while eating a slice of cake!😀

[@LostLakes]

Thought that might've been the same as Brad's oven...even more tempting to buy after seeing it all shiny new. A pleasure to watch as always sir

[@XanderBudnick]

That Brad's got a few tricks up his sleeve. Hes a smart cookie that one. I like him.

[@dylansue3519]

Lately your vids. Got a lot of sense of humor. I find it funny and watchable. Totally not boring. Keep it up man

[@timawn]

Always have to watch your videos with earphones. The sounds of the snow crunching, fire, cutting the wood etc are always so soothing 👌🏼

[@silby77]

Best ASMR ever!

[@XanderBudnick]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@dereksemik6071]

Ich muss sagen deine Darstellung von Leben in der Natur gefällt mir einfach. Da bekommt man direkt selber lust sein Rucksack zu packen und los zu ziehen ⛺️⛺️

[@april906outdoors3]

Loved all the "nope" at the beginning, and the food was over the top - well done!

[@ThomasG77]

Love the humor in this one. Thanks for the video

[@nostros]

I'm so happy to see you posting videos again, I love the meal you cooked up in this one!

[@fkt3d]

Your sense of humour is great. That camping spot was hilarious as I was not expecting that coming. You normally just select a spot in a single go.

[@teamdawkinsmo6095]

Dude your videos are the best! Truly enjoy your antics ie finding the best spot for your sleeping mat. Hilarious! I am battling aggressive prostate cancer and the treatment has taken my energy so I can barely hike but am trying. Watching your videos takes me there...thank you! You make a difference. I know Missouri USA isn't as beautiful as your area but if you ever come through the middle of the US would enjoy a campfire with you. I pray all the blessings possible to come into your life. Thank you for all your efforts to bring is these videos! Enjoy each day! Troy

[@user-xs4pi4ss4h]

Being solo, I can only imagine the time and effort spent making these videos, gotta appreciate all the setup he had to do just to say "no..." in increasingly uncomfortable positions, that had me laughing. Thanks for another great video!

[@ruralredhead]

Watching with my 7 year old son. We liked the humorous sleep spot test and dinner looked delicious.

[@Ryanbmc4]

I love the humor of trying to find flat land where you want to set up. It happens and sometimes you try to justify the decision. Solid little bit.

[@disconbobulated3514]

I'll say it again, I'm so grateful that @Lost Lakes turned me on to your channel. Love your style!

[@popatol]

You apreciate all your hard work, your cooking, your tea even your simple Oats. Love that! Im waiting for No food no water challege, makes me excited everytime you catch your own food. God Bless

[@impjbtw]

wow the time lapse of the stars was incredible. how much of nature are we missing out on? if we saw sights like these everyday like our ancestors hundreds of years ago how would things be different?

[@mariusmorse2417]

Because of my spring break, I have had a lot more spare time recently. I found this channel a couple days ago, and I love every bit of it! Xander mixes in a perfect amount of humor, scenery, and cooking! I think it's safe to say that I have been binge-watching plenty of your content. Keep up the good stuff!

[@007samd]

First time I’ve ever seen you take your fork off the actual ring to the spoon and knife together. Triggers me every-time. I’m weird. Love you x

[@jeremyc6407]

Your Humour is great! Can't wait for the next one

[@sennacherib_]

You're genuinely so funny, I really like your content

[@NormW64]

Beautiful! Beautiful!!! Nice campingfire and campingcook! Keep'em coming 😍

[@castle228]

That salmon dish looked amazeballs!! Another fantastic, relaxing video! Thanks Xander!

[@locomocoM3E]

That’s one thing i luv about ur videos..u make it entertaining and funny.

[@therealoops]

Your videos are therapy to me Xander.

[@kendallcovington3966]

I love your videos, you always crack me up and make me jealous of all the great meals you cook. I still giggle when I think of you pulling out the microwave in the video with the lights and battery pack generator.

[@TheodorBass]

It was like watching a cooking show with elements of comedy. You've made me laugh and im so hungry afterwards 🤣

[@jonus28]

I have to admit that I rewatched Xander's bit about finding the right sleeping spot multiple times. The slow progression to more ridiculous positions had me chuckling. Great video as usual.

[@JuliaJulia007]

This was fun🙂 And beautifully filmed ❤

[@biktrr4541]

Always watching before sleep, always having a good sleep.

[@shannonmark9361]

Another great video, thank you for your humor! I love it!

[@haroldcastro6753]

Love watching you're videos! The comedy to it is icing on the cake! Keep it up!

[@mikeknottscreek8183]

Another great night in the woods. Great video and the reflector stove is amazing.

[@XanderBudnick]

It sure is - such a useful tool

[@traviskylemuller]

This man cooks better in the bush than I do at home. Love all your content, Xander!

[@paavomihalakinen346]

I love that view of the night sky 😍

[@nottigerhoodz7475]

by far my favourite youtube channel. I try not to miss an upload and you've made me want to go portaging in the spring and summer. Thanks for your teachings and reccomendations, you rock

[@harrygreen6935]

What a spot. The meal looked outstanding so hungry now. Love the videos & thanks for sharing.

[@rolandovera5935]

Your vids have the perfect combination of quiet nature sounds and personality/humor… at least for me.

[@chrisgarrett2658]

I love how you try to put the land back the way you found it. Great videos Xander 😊

[@jimmyconway8776]

Fantastic as always Xander! “God could and would if he were sought’. Keep it rolling sir.

[@jungamalar]

Loving the little comedy elements. Wish there was somewhere I could go for an adventure like this :)

[@speedo6921]

The comedy in these videos just adds that extra flair, separates them from the rest 😄

[@RackiePromotions]

Glad you're always being yourself in these videos, a little goofy and all. Great to watch while I recover from my cold.

[@jamesboughen4366]

Literally found your videos yesterday and I’m hooked, just binged 3 hours worth of videos between night feeds with my newborn XD hahaha.

[@jennifermeza1726]

I would totally watch videos dedicated to longer time lapses, your videos are great!

[@barbaronaa5185]

hey xander youre doing great :d is there any chance in the future you will do another 3 days in the wilderness video where you fish and gather your own resources? that one was awesome :D

[@riznanoliveros4025]

Yeah

[@XanderBudnick]

Yes I will for sure - probably later in the year after bug season

I'm just mesmerized by the night star video, simply amazing !!!! Meal was not bad either !! Thanks for the content.

[@tonym4136]

Dude. The way u capture the fire at night is so soothing. It looks warm. I think u should keep doing more campfire sleeps. The time lapse siberian fire u had was awesome

[@thunderboxdiaries]

Your culinary skills are evolving nicely!

[@sunepimsong9555]

What i love about this channel is , it's not everything about him. ❤️

[@rebeccadees2300]

Right before you said that about the fire I had just wondered if it was a bad idea. Thank you for clarifying.👍

[@adamwright9695]

Awesome video, as always! Thank you Xander!!!

[@Zappa870]

A absolutely sweet camping spot. And that food was fabulous. Thanks for taking us along.

[@Mondhase2000]

I am always down to my knees when I see this huuuuge amount of stars 😍😍I am living in Hannover, Germany. Even in the night it is too much light from the city here to see more than 5 or 6 stars😞I know that there are more, I just can't see them 😞so I love your timelaps all the time. Thx for it😍😘🤗and keep on cooking 😁it doesn't matter how long it takes to make an awesome meal. The luxury is to have the time to make it. So enjoy your luxury 😁😘👍

[@Jonnydoherty115]

Quality stuff as usual Xander! Brilliant time-lapse of the sky :)

[@spektred]

I don't know why KZbin recommended this channel to me, but upon watching I subscribed within minutes. I love watching survival skills.

[@krisgarwood5733]

I f'ing love starting my day with Xander 😂❤

[@andrewg944]

I love watching your videos. Thanks for not always advertising a bunch of stuff, and not begging for likes and subs. I get to camp vicariously through your videos. Keep it up, and stay golden, pony boy. -Andrew from Indiana

[@laurensgoossen6885]

Its safe to say that these are youre best video’s just going solo on a simple trip, a 1 nighter or 2 nighter. Cooking some good food en making a nice shelter. Amazing video, cant wait for the next one

I’m so glad I found your channel man. You seem so chill and a nice guy to be around. Congrats on the 400k!

[@Thomas-eu4jf]

Hey Xander I love your content! I think it would be awesome if you did a beginners guide to camping where you go over essential gear, where to find camping spots, and other random tips. This is something I’d love to try but I’m not sure where to start.

[@davewinch6029]

You can cook better over a camp fire than some people can on their kitchen stove. Well done.

[@cowboy6591]

Great job !!! Another classic Xander video. Always a touch of comedy in the mix. KUDOS!!

[@blackpagan100]

By far the best outdoors channel because of your character but please…. make longer uploads!! Cheers from the UK Xander.
