​@@basecampchrisFYI, your diet is not good. You eat mostly carbs and sugar. The beer is also pure sugar. If you want to stay active look into the Keto way of eating with Dr Ken Berry. You can loss the big belly and fix any big issues like arthritis, pain, diabetes, and so many issues.

[@michellereed5638]

Thanks for a great video, watching this on June 17, 2024--excellent. I have been watching a lot of your videos as I just stumbled upon them. So I am watching as many as pop up on my KZbin, and have emailed you too. These are just exellent videos. I really enjoy these too, just as much as the "scary" ones and hope that you will continue to do these types of videos too. They are so enjoyable! Thank you! Bravo Chris!! You are a very unique individual and I appreciate your hard work!!

[@kevingraham194]

Great video Chris! Pretty cool how you match beers with your hikes and I’m always looking forward to see what you’re going to cook. Great historical recipe, wow. Keep hiking!

Thank you Kevin!

[@mikeparker1161]

Great adventure! Thanks for bringing us along.

[@basecampchris]

Thank you Mike...great Country!

[@tmo.48]

I remember the coffee my parents would make while on camping trips, on an old sturdy Coleman stove. They had a nice sized porcelain blue with white speckles coffee pot that they just dumped in some coffee grounds and let it cook and settle and absolutely yum. They never let me drink coffee till I was about 14. I would collect nickels and stop in at the corner gas station and for 5 cents a cup I would buy 2 cups and drink them quickly as my school was just caddycorner of the station. My Mom never knew.😮

[@niklashall5969]

This channel and Lukes channel outdoor gear review are my all time favourite hiking channels

[@dianamayberry8584]

I always got up at the crack of dawn to welcome a new day. At home and camping. Everyone one else still sleeping. We mostly camped in the Shawnee Forest. Rode our horses. Of course there was always tons food along with gallons o the brew. Best days of my life.

[@natehoover5266]

I was up in an alpine meadow in the Loss Creek Wilderness in Colorado and it was my favorite part of my trip. So beautiful, and just knowing I was up 11,600ft was awesome.

[@tylertapp131]

First time seein your channel but I have to say I really dig the jeramiah johnson music you put in, probably one of my all time favorite movies since I was a kid. THE NOSTALGIA! Love it.

[@basecampchris]

Glad you enjoy it!...Great Movie. C

Wow! Such a beautiful video! The colors of the morning remind me of the art of Maxfield Parrish. :)

[@geralynbreault4643]

Omg you have to work in the morning!!! Gosh I admire your energy & enthusiasm !!! Also got me thinking about how ridiculously wrong I am living my life at the moment !!! 😄.

[@Colorado8300]

Great scenery! Great stories. We live in Colorado- we have a restaurant called The Fort on US 285. They serve a drink called the Jim Bridger! Keep up the great stories. My kids and I love your great story telling. As always, keep doing what your doing and be safe - keep your powder dry! We loved the Jeremiah Johnson music (my 8 year olds favorite movie), I appreciate your beer in the stream while you tell your stories!

[@elizabethambriz8298]

Hello Chris love listening to your stories in this videos , listen when I am getting ready for bed .

[@dynahmaranatha2954]

I LOVE HISTORY...My family did the DNA family tree and found out that Meriwether Lewis, is in our family tree. I always watched documentaries, as a child and still do. Read a lot of historical books. We all know that the schools are teaching this anymore. Sad. Thank you for the interesting information about Heroes of the West. They truly were.

[@HardyTempestsWildCampsandWalks]

I thought I recognised that background music , perfect for that terrain. Awesome.

[@basecampchris]

Yes...Great Music and Film! Keep Hiking

[@joshhazama1620]

I have watched alot of your videos Chris and this was my far my favorite. You tied the narration, the music, the beautiful secery and all the history together perfectly. Thank you!!!

[@AllisonHayes-jx8mu]

Hi, Chris! Love your videos! You are an awesome director and story teller! The beer review is a very creative component, as well as the camp cooking. Wasn’t Jeremiah Johnson the best western ever??!! And Robert Redford in his prime, OMG!! He’s an amazing human in more ways than one! Thank you so much for your entertaining and informative content. I’ll keep watching and hiking!
