Cheers Dave, great adventure with your little mate. Hope you reach your goal soon, bugger tramping on no calories😁

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Thanks Clinton, yeah Bentley is amazing, it’s the terrier in him. 3000 subs, I mean it’s not much in the real world of pretty KZbinrs but it’s a goal for me to keep the foot on the gas. I lost the weight, got to 80kg, passed all my medical markers so it’s all worth while. Thanks for the support 👋

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

I would get lost for sure! So nice not to worry about ticks and snakes. Bentley is adorable, such an adventure dog!

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

I could not do what you two do overseas we all have our skills. Yes Mr B is surprisingly one tough wee dog.

[@chriskeeling223]

So good! Impressive discipline and fun adventure. Great job mate

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Thanks Chris, I lost the 3kg and got to 80kg for my medical so all worth the abstinence 👍

[@gregarmstrong5043]

Thanks Dave. Another great video. Isn't it great to go bush bashing and find hidden gems. Hope you reach your goal weight.

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Thanks Greg & yes it is. I lost 3kg over the 3 days and got to my bmi 80.5kg goal to pass the medical criteria.

Nothing beats a bit of bush bashing! :) At least there's no snakes in NZ. Mr Bentley is adorable!

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Thanks for watching - Here's what I find, if you can drive or hike to a campsite without bushbashing, then there is a high chance that someone else might be there too ;-) Bush bashing solves all that.

Great adventure, that Bentley crossing a log like a badger, you're killing me. 🤣🤣. Good luck on the fasting. My last 3 week canoe trip I fasted alot and was a little weak when I emerged to what passes for civilization. It really helps me through out the year to stay fit. Thanks!

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

If DOC ever question me about having a dog, I’m going to correct them and say Bentleys a badger 😂

[@afellowguy1933]

beautiful bushlands!

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Yes, untouched

[@BlackshacksBushcraft]

Awesome mate. I'm in the first week of my recovery after a total hip replacement so, no hiking/camping for me for quite a while, and I think my first camping outing will be more likely a car camping trip. So... glamping really. lol.😂 Keep those videos coming mate. I need something to watch during my recovery. 😁

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Sounds painful - happy for you to live vicariously via me for a while, there’s only 100+ videos to get through 😁

[@tearoha.hohaia]

Kia ora Dave. Just wondering looking at the murkiness of that water - would you be using a millbank bag to pre-filter your water?

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

If you’re referring to the end shot where I’m washing Bentley we never drank from it but I might use a filter when it comes to us doing a wildcamp by the pool.

[@kiwiperspective8656]

How accurate do you find the watch GPS? I noticed your tracking lines looked like it lost you few times. My Garmin Instinct 2 works incredibly well in town, but seems to record alot more GPS distance than i actually walked when used in the bush.

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

In fairness I use my iPhone app to save battery on my watch, but the times I have used it, it seemed good.
