There’s an unspoken communication between them. It’s beautiful. I believe they both need & appreciate each other.
If Foresty says a move is sketchy, then it must be incredibly sketchy. Thank you for another wonderful video.

Foresty, you remind me of the Energizer Bunny. No sooner are you finished with a 5 day grueling and epic adventure that most people would take weeks to recover from, and you are off again into the wilderness for 3 more days of trekking in the unbelievably gorgeous Yukon backcountry of Kluane National Park. It appears that Kluane is in your blood!!
All your videos are awesome, but these last couple have been just so amazing. It’s such a joy to see the beauty of these wild places, to know they still exist, and to see the big smile on your face makes me smile too! It blows me away to see Rocko traveling all these miles with you! What a fantastic companion! Thank you for taking us along…so much joy!!!
That is the cutest sleeping bag warmer I've ever seen.😂
I'm just going to pretend I didn't read ahead and see that my thoughts are already shared by others. Ahem. I never thought I could get so much enjoyment from watching someone else walk. Maybe it's because you have such great videography skills and personal insight. And a phenomenal hiking partner. Thank you (again) for bringing us along.

You are so amazing. The ability to just take off hiking across a place like that…and film it in a way that is absolutely captivating (the scenery, the dialogue, the food, the dog!). It’s just incredible. My deep gratitude to you for offering these beautiful videos to us. Some of us have so little. But knowing that I can watch this makes me feel wealthy.

I will say that the cinematography, editing and shot setups felt different and improved this time. I don’t know if Foresty is taking a class or just honing his craft, but it was amazing.
"When life gives you onions, make onionade." 😃 That's some next level philosophical wisdom! 🤌
Awesome adventure, as always. That giardia is not good bug to have, so glad you were able to walk it off. I do believe Rocko picked a most thoughtful companion to go galloping through the mountains with. May the sun shine for you as often as needed F.F. with enough rainy days to rest well.
Another amazing hike! I love how Rocko is hard at it all day but as soon as the blue sleeping bag hits the inflatable pad, she is right there to snuggle in.
One day I'd love to see your work on National Geographic or the like. You are an artist true as can be.
Our dog looks like your dog- cute!
WOW, you are absolutely blessing yourself AND us with these videos!!!! When the off-days come around, don't feel guilty labelling the videos as 'boring videos'.... we've been very fortunate.

The interlude with Rocco...the pic of her in the fluff and her quietly in the tent. I get the feels. I have a pet and we spend so much time together and it is a real bond. It is a different and deeper communication that takes place. The honesty and trueness of an animal companion is a blessing to have and enjoy.
That muddy water scene was mesmerizing 😵💫
Oh man. Not sure I would have headed out backpacking for 3 days with only 4 coffees😮 You truly are mentally strong.
Enjoy watching your journey in and thru out the Yukon - all the best and be safe

Excellent, as usual. Thanks Foresty, and Rocko. 👍👍

Wonderful, as always. I am not sure why, but I started tearing up a bit as I watched you set up your tent. Sometimes simple acts can have a profound affect on us. It may have been just watching another human doing something and being somewhere that he truly loves. You are an extraordinary and unique person truly living in the moment. Thank you for sharing.
I still remember the winter video in the minivan in a parking lot on Lake Ontario (Erie?) and thinking, "this guy is one of a kind". Living with no heat... and now this? Crazy few years watching this each week.
