Top 3 Stories with Scary Wildlife Encounters at Yellowstone | +Part 2 SUMMER Camp Trip!

Hi Guys,
This is Part 2 of my camping adventure in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. I cook a big breakfast and then spend the day exploring the high country in the Stanislaus National Forest. I also tell stories of my time working in Yellowstone National Park and how the "Tourists" would risk their lives to get photos of wildlife. I show the Top 3 videos of scary wildlife encounters in Yellowstone. Much to learn about how to deal with wildlife and not get hurt.
Keep Hiking!
Base Camp Chris
How many bison attacks in Yellowstone?
Per a 2019 report from Utah State University, of all the wildlife in Yellowstone, bison are the biggest threats to humans. For context: Between the years of 1978 and 1992, 56 people were injured and two people were killed by bison; from 2000 to 2015, 25 people were injured by bison.Jul 8, 2022

Reminds me of something a Yosemite ranger once said about the difficulty of designing bear proof boxes "there is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists"

[@heatherwhatever7714]

That’s a good one.

[@robertdodson312]

I am always amazed when I see people approaching bison like they are pets! Especially when they have their children beside them!

[@van3363]

Exactly! It always amazes me when people bring kids up to deer. It ain't Bambi folks.

[@yuliiabasova1893]

Soaking my feet in a mountain stream is what I'm always looking forward to when I travel to the Carpathians - a mountain range in Ukraine. Chris, your videos give me the so needed sense of hope that once the war in my country is over, I will be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Ukraine again. Really enjoy your videos and your stories. Stay safe.

[@johncausey8519]

Yuliia, I am praying for peace for your country.

[@vvogt4252]

Praying for Yuliia . Say a Prayer everyone.

[@jerseyandhernomads]

Prayers sent your way 🙏💕

Thank you for your words Yuliia...I hope for peace soon too.

[@yuliiabasova1893]

@@johncausey8519 Thank you for your support.

[@twocross]

Show respect to WILD-life and you’ll be just fine. People are by far the most dangerous animals anywhere. Chris thanks again.

[@missycitty9478]

You're so kind Chris! People are just plain Stupid sometimes! There, I said it! I will never be able to wrap my head around HOW stupid they really can be. another great upload!! Thank you so much!! As always , BE SAFE!! 👍😊

[@miriamjewett5438]

i look forward to watching you every Sunday, Chris... ..either for breakfast or at dinner time.... Such great fun....

[@touthao4581]

Chris is a Legend! Even the food he eat is GOLD! always makes me hungry everytime 😁

[@henrymorgan3982]

I like the question, "Can I ride the bison?" Yea, just ask the animal and most times they will say, "Get on, I'll take you for a ride!" A sidebar. Check your battery on your car. It sounds like it's about to die soon. Just an observation. Thanks Chris!

[@wvgrizzly9323]

Thanks for taking us along Chris, man that's some beautiful country out there.

[@zorazorazorzzora8333]

Nothing like a man that can cook well, neat organized … so enjoy your videos

[@gail9906]

Great part 2 Chris. That valley was beautiful. ❤️🇦🇺🦘

[@basecampchris]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@judyrobinson9556]

Great video Chris. Nice mix of hiking, cooking and good advice on respecting wild animals' space. Unreal how some folks just walk right up to these dangerous animals. "When do they put them back in their cages?" Breathtaking naivety which could cost them their lives. KH!

[@bernielamont825]

hey Chris!! after watching the news clip of the incedent, "touron" was a sad description ( but true ) of the mindset of some people visiting our National Parks, seems like common sense is going the way of the dinosaur, very good video though.

[@bernielamont825]

sorry, my spell check broke

[@ewengillies9826]

Common sense .. what common sense .. there isn't any when it comes to people now. Seems many have a death wish and that's their choice. Great upload once again in a very picturesque area Chris. Thanks. Bushyboy Oz.

[@jamesnimmo1049]

Love the Sunday tradition of your videos I'll be watching tonight after work.cheers be safe.

[@callienash1798]

July 27, 2022 Thanks for all the info. Chris! I seem to learn something new everyday from your channel. I so love the way you incorporate the hiking tips, scenery, stories, your delicious cooking tip and meals, BF encounters and etc. Your channel is truly an original! I also love that you're bringing Bigfoot/ Sasquatch encounter stories to the table ... and bringing out awareness that these beings truly exist out there! Btw, usually when I'm watching your channel it's dinner time for me at work.. I work grave yard. So when you say your cheers after cracking open a cool one... You better believe I'm raising my glass as well! 👍 You're super cool Chris!!👍 Stay safe as always! God bless! I just Love your channel!

Watching your videos is like talking to a good friend.

[@leukkpe]

new subscriber here! i just found your channel and i love it!

[@gardensofthegods]

Another one you might like is the Dog Man Encounters Radio channel here on KZbin . It hasn't been so good lately you might like the older stories some of them are absolutely horrifying and riveting

[@lateepiphany]

Putting your feet in that spring is the ultimate grounding! How glorious! I lived it vicariously through you. Thank you

[@derrickwalker538]

Thanks for letting us tag along on your camp outs!! I wish I had the time you do to go on these adventures! Being an industrial maintenance manager at a factory in East Tennessee they don’t give much off time!! You help me get away into nature!! Thanks brother

[@karlawithakranaway6125]

Great video Chris ! Looking forward to more camping and great stores. 👍👍😎

[@johncausey8519]

Another great video Chris! That was an awesome breakfast you cooked! Keep’m coming!

[@basecampchris]

Thanks!!

[@barryhoward7284]

Another good video! Thanks Chris. I wanted to relay a couple of things to you, after seeing your lantern prop, I went looking on Amazon for one and found one that I ordered and love. It is a NEBO 15 LED lantern / 9" battery operated traditional metal lantern design for indoor/outdoor use / rustic red. It has a well worn finish and a very realistic flickering flame, check it out. Also, when I was a kid, I read a bigfoot story that was very chilling that was supposedly told to Teddy Roosevelt about a early 1900's trapper and his partner, the man's name was Bauman. Id love to hear that tale again from you on a video.

[@summerbreaze8627]

Love both videos, part one was great part two is beautiful with waterfall and great info on bison. Making two parts was great idea. Thank you for both and love all of your videos!!

[@nancysays3262]

So much to love about this video! Aside from your skill at taking and editing your video, the food/cooking, scenery, talks, info and just everything else can't be beat. Very relaxing and enjoyable!! ❤

[@basecampchris]

Thank you so much!!

[@lauriehughes8130]

Made the same exact breakfast but added two pieces of left over bacon crumbled in the scrambled eggs. I buy those same potato hash browns.. I break them up and freeze them in packages of 2. Beautiful area really beat my kitchen in toledo ohio. Thanks for sharing your hike and story. Looking forward to your next video.

[@SD0224]

Lol just saw a bison yesterday.in the field Thankfully far enough to enjoy with a good zoom lens .

[@lindadonahue9279]

That meadow was breathtaking! I love wildlife and could watch wildlife videos all day long. I have never been fortunate enough to see the big fellas like elk, moose or grizzlies! I assure you I would not be a "touron" if that is how it is spelled! 🤣Thanks, and keep the videos coming!

[@eric81872]

Thank you for the video! ☼☺♥☼

[@tigerlillybell75]

I love the beautiful bluegrass version of the Hymn, "Leaning On The Everlasting Arms of Jesus" you had playing in the background. Good video. Thank you.

[@MrSpacejase]

love the fiddle. Reminds me of Ken Burns Civil war

[@mjtegan4839]

I was laughing so hard when you talked about the questions about bison from the touron… lol LOVED YOUR BREAKFAST TOO! Enjoy watching such beauty and breathtaking views and listening to your stories!

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

I've watched almost all of your previous videos......maybe need about 10 more to finish.....it's so fantastic to see an "up to date" video!!! Thanks again, for all you do to share your adventures with us! I appreciate you beyond words!!

[@markexpose175]

GREAT. CAMPING.

[@benwelch4076]

I have had many encounters with bison over the years. Not only are they big and fast, they can also be scary quiet Seeing you cook made my day. Stay safe and cheers to you and your subs.

[@m-bronte]

Enjoyed the part 2 hike Chris! I don't understand why people think wildlife is friendly? To many Disney_movies I guess, personally I won't even get close to a squirrel.

[@myzacky96]

Beautiful breakfast, so relaxing by the stream, wouldn't you just love to have that stream in your back yard, I live about 100ft off the Hudson River, but there is nothing like and up and close stream, a beautiful video, I wish I was there with you

[@MrsMarileed]

Love your videos... am living vicariously through your adventures!! hehe ! Some of us are blessed to watch others , so keep it up !

[@jburnett8152]

What a beautiful country we live in. One year in Yellowstone while making our way down the road I caught a woman about to station her small child atop a bison as the father took a picture.

[@gardensofthegods]

Incredibly stupid people ... they need to have Hefty fines for people doing stuff like that

[@TeriDean]

We also called them Tourons when I lived in Jackson Hole 1995-2005. It’s still fitting and relevant. I enjoy all of your videos. Thank you for sharing!

[@christineferoli1750]

Enjoying your vid’s so much. Beautiful! Thanks.

[@basecampchris]

Glad you like them!

[@stevenbrown6277]

I love the 'tourons' part.

[@johnfun3394]

I’m always amazed to see the the tourists forget the wild part of wildlife. I ran from a skunk just the other night, and was so proud. My dog was too. Thanks

[@mikefreeman7038]

Great video. Educational and well made. Thank you.

[@basecampchris]

Thank you!

[@red1able]

Great presentation, really enhanced by the example videos. It can't be stressed enough that wild animals are just that, wild and they aren't animatronic, with an off switch.

[@folkblues4u]

I have major disabilities, which make life hell. But watching your videos helps me forget for awhile. Probably sounds silly, but i almost fell like I'm there with ya - which is a pleasant escape from reality. Thanks! Jim - from Chicago, IL.

[@DrDennis]

Good one. Keep hiking buddy.

[@basecampchris]

Thanks Dr D!

[@Jaxissupergay77]

I especially love the mountains, streams, reminding me of Day hikes to Lake Louise and following Fish crick to the inlet. I am upset with myself for getting ( acidentally) too close to bison in Canada.I had a cast on my left leg, spun around and I was a foot away from Mrs Bison. Woops. Scattered, 🐌 slowly outta there! Thank for reminding us wild animals deserve repect!

[@Xeidasx]

This was a good video. Gorgeous scenery

[@basecampchris]

Thank you very much!

[@sharir1679]

Thanks for your video work, I do not blame the animals, can you imagine having people always bothering you? It's a wonder they don't get even more mad.

[@EmsLionheart]

Hell w that They’re just as pretty, through the camera scope/zoom 😅 I grew up on farm-around horses, chickens, deer, cows and one HELLUVA mean turkey who wanted me for a pecking post - they all taught me, within minutes, about allowing animals their space as well as alerting animals to your presence.

[@basecampchris]

Very cool!

[@yuccavalleynan2074]

I am so envious of all these places WITH WATER that you show us! Also no loud people around - just how I love to hike! Thanks Chris - this southern California desert rat needs to see the green & water! Tou-ron is a kind way to describe these idgets that disrespect wildlife & their space. Thanks for the extra work/time you put into your videos - showing us all the beauty! Stay safe - keep hiking!

[@lolitagrant6751]

I bet your Folger's was, "Good to the Last Drop"; but, Maxwell House, would argue this point! Haha! You are a good cook, Chris! Really enjoy your video's down hee ya in Kentucky!😊

[@christellehoareau5303]

You’re travelling alone, camping alone. Just the thought gives me the heebee jeebees! I guess I have listened to too many missing people cases!

Hey Chris, every now and then if you did a video from your yard, garage, driveway, or recliner would be cool.

[@rdemarco1956]

That’s pretty funny. Just seconds before you said Touron. I was thinking of the same word. Because that’s the term we used when I was a Ranger in Zion NP.

[@garyminick1050]

Love your old music, it brings me back to childhood memories.

[@nettiezdolls6742]

I was six years old when we traveled to Yellowstone. I saw my first bison (it was behind a fence). It snorted, and I ran back to my parent’s car and laid down behind the driver’s seat to hide. I wasn’t in any danger but even at six years old, I knew better than to get too close.

Hi Chris, greetings from the Czech Republic. Dude, I have been stuck with your channel for close to a year now. I think that might be a record. I like to play your hiking videos in the background when getting ready for work and stuff. It is pretty relaxing. Also, I appreciate the Nevada setting. Do you ever watch the night sky there or something?

Hey Chris great video. I could tell you were from Minnesota the first time I saw you. I lived there for 8 years. Then came back to California. Was wondering if you could let me in on where you were camping in part 1. Heading up to that area on Wednesday for a solo camping trip. Thanks and keep up the good fight.

I lived and worked in Yosemite. They have tourons too. I once saw the mom put her MAYBE one year old on the back of a large full rack beautiful buck while the dad took a picture. I was afraid to say anything incase l was the one who might cause an awful incident. Back then the only animal caused deaths were from deer.

[@81eagle]

Stayed at a guest ranch just outside the park, well closer to Dubois actually. They had a book titled "Death In Yellowstone" I couldn't put it down. Finally found a copy in a book store and put it in my library. Worth a look.
