I lost my brother and dog these last 5 months. This was like a last straw, and I bawled after seeing the video. Such a shock. Poor Bruno and poor Tony...
That was a fantastic place to camp I loved it!❤ please say prayers along with us all for Tony and Anne❤
That was very nice of you to leave the shelter to the kids. Honestly I like the second one better it’s pretty cool.

Under the rock was pretty cool
You're a rock star Abel.
Both were really cool spots, food looked so tasty. The Dad would’ve been so happy to have some good firewood for the kids to enjoy and be warm.
Always with the good food making us all hungry 😁
Before my disability we intended on travelling NZ on our Harley especially to visit my grandfathers grave in Christchurch. Ah well so be it I can live on your content
Love your wood cutting/chopping therapy sessions!

I am from the UK - scones, jam and cream are the best! I didn't know about whipping the cream in a jar- a great idea, I am going to try it.

Thanks again Abel for another great camp. Would love to see you back there in raining or snowing weather. I particularly liked the pans around the bush, you sure have some beautiful scenery over the ditch mate. Kindest regards to Victoria my friend, hope the pregnancy is progressing well. See you on your next adventure.

We have had endless sun. Makes me a bit sad should have had some snow by now. I have some more cool shelters I plan to visit later this year. Victoria is doing good. Thanks 😊
What a magical little spot. Will definitely stay over next time I’m up that way. Cheers 🤙🤙
Such a neat place to camp out. So pretty and love the sound of rushing water👍🏻
Always love your videos, but this was a FUN spot!

I love your videos and found you through AB Camping. Hoping Victoria is doing well 🙏
Those were two great camping locations; thanks for sharing them in your video. And scones - my grandma made them & taught my mother, but sadly both are gone now. I loved scones but haven’t had them in about 30 years. Your video brought back a flood of memories- all good..!

Great video as always. Please check on Tony. My heart breaks for him, Ann and Brandon. 😢💔
Hello Abel, that was a great camping site
Oh yes, my way of eating Scones for sure! The whipped cream must be sweetened, yes! I'm a Canadian with British grandparents. My husband and I were in New Zealand years ago for a month visiting friends and one thing they asked me to make was Scones with jam and sweetened whipped cream! I love your personality and your very interesting videos Abel.
Another great video! It is a very unique and beautiful location for a cabin. And under a large rock. These two cabin videos were very interesting and entertaining. The severe storm videos are awesome. I look forward to your snow videos.

Hi Abel what Gorgeous Awesome beautiful Amazing Scenery 😊
Food looks lush
It is amazing at that campsite. Great choice!
That’s awesome!
One of your best video.
great location
Absolutely mesmerizing! The way you both harmonize with nature and create such a cozy shelter amidst the rocks is inspiring. Your attention to detail, from setting up camp to cooking, really brings the essence of adventure to life. Can’t wait to see where you’ll take us next! 🏕️🌟
Wow! Cool hut. Great vid.
A good video and also amazing place to camp ,I love camping ,it's bring peace and I love the sound of nature 😊
Wow! I really like these little huts. I have so many questions. Who mains the upkeep of them? How do they get to the area with the materials to build them? That was vey kind of you to allow the Father and his two sons to stay. Give my love to Victoria. Prayers she feels better and regains her joy.
I really enjoyed this camp
The subtitles always have a field day with the NZ accent. Adds to the enjoyment 😁😁
This to me is your best so far / And no you shouldn't have gone to the second spot first as you were not to know others would turn up , You were very considerate to the family so i hope they appreciated the effort of uprooting yourself - Both spots were amazing and spotting that duck as you said is so rare , this was all meant to play out as it did
I agree Abel it seems like your pioneering GREAT VIDEO
Awesome vid, bro
Love u brother..❤❤
Awesome video you got some pretty cool campgrounds there 😊makes me want to visit New Zealand 🇳🇿❤get a different experience then in the United States 🇺🇸 I’m guessing you don’t have bears 🐻 we do here in Colorado! Keep up the awesome videos and thanks for sharing your adventures with us

A more sunny spot would be more ideal
Very good of you to give up upper Gridiron hut but as it was a three bunker and there were four of you, that many people in such a small hut would cramp your video style, so understand you moving onto the overhang rock shelter. It’s Encouraging to see the views given you haven’t used your normal algorithm words in your title, hope yet for us minnow creators. I really enjoyed this one Abel, hope to see more places like this. 👋

Kia ora koutou. Whereabouts is the hut situated?
Another sneaky weka making sure it gets on camera.
