This one made me quite nervous and it was exciting and beautiful. Thank you for taking such good care of Rocco and please NEVER risk your safety for the sake of making a video or anything else! ❤

Wow! Beautiful video! Thanks for taking this old lady along on your adventures with your precious little buddy.

I chuckled when I saw Rocko in the mosquito netting. Foresty is a great dad!

That dog has the most awesome life.

Rocko's snoot inside the mosquito hood with you is just the cutest thing ❤ Thank you for all the amazing stories and amazing views! It's such a privilege to be shown these journeys and accomplishments.

That little dog is living a good dog life.

You definitely have to embrace the suck. You're definitely one tough man and one tenacious JRT. I get tired just watching your adventures. I can't imagine how tough it must really be. I am humbled in your presence. 🫂❤🤗

17:53 - I've never seen a happier living being than in this moment!

Rocko is a trouper. I don't know is she was just born to be the free spirit you allow her to be or if she had to adapt to it, either way, she seems calm when needed and also faithfully follows you along when needed. You 2 are perfect together. She is gonna experience so much nature over her lifetime I can't imagine there will be any regrets when her life is over. Hell, she has already experienced more than many of us. I have ZERO summits and she already has 17. My black was perfect for me and Rocko is perfect for you. Dogs are just the perfect companion. I got 17 great years from my lab, I hope you get as many or more from Rocko.🐕

Thank you so much for keeping the loon calls in at 17:00. We took a trip to New Hampshire and absolutely loved the loon calls!

I must say because you have Rocko. You will push harder and farther than you would have without her.

This looks like most uncomfortable hike I’ve ever seen you make. The mosquitoes 🦟 look prehistoric.You are a trooper!!

This is the kind of trip dreams are made of man. You went out there and you saw things most people never will, and then you let us witness some of it. Truly amazing trip.

What a journey Simon. A friend on mine was a ranger up in Dease Lake and said to me that some guy went out there last year solo and they still haven't found him. Just insane man, I can't even imaging doing that hike without the plane, glad you made it back safe and sound and what incredible scenery.

Dude,I've been watching for a couple of years and this is the best one so far. the dynamic duo of Foresty Forest and Rocko the Wonder Dog on a 4 day High Adventure was a pleasure to watch ,she really is the perfect companion for you. That was an amazing trip , the sense of remoteness must be awesome.Keep on keeping' on , thanks so much for taking me along.

Rocko is such an amazing dog, she’s also super adorable.

Thank you for taking us on this trip!

I was saving this one for the perfect time, to give it the attention and the respect that such a “hike” and effort deserves, much like I used to do for the epic bike rides that FF completed earlier on in his channel’s history. Today was that day. Feeling lousy after my cancer treatment. What can you say about our friend and my fellow Ontarian Foresty that hasn’t already been said? Nothing really. When I was younger (I’m now 52) I fantasized about leaving small-town Ontario to buy some land on the north shore of Lake Superior to live off-grid (before that was even a word) and self-sufficiently. The thought of living in a van, with all of the basic creature comforts one might need in life, never even crossed my mind. Was it even a thing people did 25 years ago? I never followed through and the fantasy of a life on the north shore of Lake Superior fizzled. Finding Foresty Forest, this incredible Canadian human, revived the spirit of that dream in me. I suspect he has revived the spirit of many different versions of that same dream in the many who watch his exploits. He is my younger self, who actually took the leap of faith, and is living what I consider to be his best life. Irreplaceable memories made. He is a special kind of person in the best sense. One in a million, if not more rare. A Canadian treasure indeed. I am grateful to have found him. I will be in his (missing) passenger seat for as long as I can be or until Foresty decides to become Simon once again and move from van life to fulfill a new dream that doesn’t include us. Either way I am ever grateful for what Foresty goes through “for us.” Safe travels and much love Foresty, from Ottawa 🇨🇦

I just found your channel a little less than a year ago. Have not missed and episode since. Now, between new episodes, I go back and watch the ones you created before I found your channel. Love them all. So enjoy everything you do. A devoted fan. Kind Regards, Randy in Arizona, USA

Jack Russell's are known for being energetic, even hyper, dogs and Rocco got the perfect dad!

This one looked gnarly as hell. I'm usually jealous of your adventures but bushwhacking through that level of swamp is where I think I draw the line

I have so much respect for the amount of care and concern you give for Rocko's safety on these trips, especially given her relative inexperience with hiking due to her young age. I've seen so many other KZfaqrs put their dogs in dangerous situations, but you always have her well-being in mind first. It's really nice to see. :)

That moment in the middle when the sound just stopped and those yellow flowers were blowing in the breeze. 🙌

It's admirable that you did this without a guide and without a helicopter. What makes it great, truly great is that you filmed it all so well too. You're a good storyteller, it's rare that good storytellers have such strong legs too! :-)

Absolutely next level adventure, filming and resilience mate. Massive respect to you and Rocco.

Your adventures are always epic and Rocco is always a pleasure to see her enjoying nature. May God bless

I’m really enjoying your trips. I’m 78 with lung issues, so really enjoy watching your videos. TY

Edziza... This has been on our bucket list for 2 decades. You are legend 🐺

Legendary stuff! My body literally could not travel that far, and yet, the most difficult looking aspect of this trip appeared to be the bugs... My god those bugs...

One of the best videos I have seen. This old guy is having fun pretend hiking through you. Love your style and that dog, Thank You.

Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. Easily one of my fave episodes.

Your such a legend for not only doing this very hard trip but also filming and bringing Rocko along

Holy crap dude, that was a big one. Glad you made it through safely, and I'm glad you felt good enough to make this trip. I'm super impressed with how well behaved Rocco is compared to what I imagined she'd be. I imagine there's a lot of tomfoolery off camera, but still she seems to be doing so well and knows when to rest and listens to you. You've done well raising her and training her!

Rocco lives the good life. She seems to love every second of it. Super cool man.

"Just when you think it's safe to put on your boots... It's not." hahahaha

I don’t comment a whole lot on KZfaq vlogs but I just want to say thank you so much for taking us on your ventures it’s absolutely awesome and stunning take care and please be safe 🙏😊

Rocco is an unstoppable beast!

Foresty, you are one in a million. Thank you so much for taking us along on your adventures. Priceless. Take a much deserved rest! And give Rocko extra kisses from all her fans!

Set yourself a nice goal there. You and Rocko mastered it with flying colours. Thanks for taking us along 🤗👍✌

What a trip! Hats off to your tenacity! Rocco doesn’t know how to quit - something she must have learned from you. Thank-you for sharing the journey and Congratulations!

I *LOVE* the way you take care of Rocko! When I saw you carrying her in your coat with the bug net over her head too, I exhaled a little giggle and fell in love with you/your channel just that much more! ****** Your channel is the only one that I watch on fullscreen (laptop) and wish I had a 90-inch TV to watch it on, lol. Your adventures are epic and I look forward to all of them! ps. I wish you could have flown your drone as well because you do an incredible job and the views are breathtaking!

Rocko is the perfect companion for you. She’s a real trooper.

I can see why you were inspired by Iohan Gueorguiev, his videos are amazing. Light, humorous… just refreshing and spectacular! Thanks for sharing him with us.

Good evening from Godley Texas, the average person would have quit long ago. You and Rocco are an inspiration. Stay safe and happy travels 😎

The level of mosquito savagery is unreal!

That gorgeous Jack Russell who looks remarkably like mine is living her best life - sweet brave little girl. Oh and well done you too excellent video.

If Rocco disowns you I wont be surprised, but I think she knows a good place. Thanks, you and Rocco are amazing

Some of those beautiful shots with cinder cones & glaciers reminded me of Iceland. Thanks for filming the trek so we can all enjoy it, without any mosquito nets!

That’s a serious journey. The remoteness really ups the consequences.

It's fascinating how that little dog can do such a massive trip and then the day after it's over, she's still full of energy like nothing out of the ordinary happened. Maybe Rocco is solar powered!.

What a determined man and what a unbelievable dog! Pure entertainment… For me. Pure work for you!

Thanks! Stunning photography, just seeing mosquitoes made me itch.

Congratulations on the summit! What a journey--amazing scenery! You're super tough both mentally and physically. Good show.

Thanks for mentioning something about Johan in the last video. I had no idea. Looked him up online. What a HORRIBLE TRAGEDY!!!! Such a cool guy. If you start feeling like that ......REACH OUT HERE on youtube if not somewhere else. The world needs you!!!!!

Rocco is living her best life

To think that you had to place the camera, go through and go back again to retrieve, in those conditions to film it; and living life true to yourself, massive respect FF🫡

Damn vampire bugs. Looks pretty thick. Love how Foresty is more concerned with Rocko's welfare than his own :D

I guess I 'm nuts. This made me cry. Rocko is so amazing. Hats off to you both.

My Dear Lone Wolf, You are one amazing man. With one amazing dog. Be well. Be happy. Be safe. Most sincere and best wishes from, The Great Lake State of Michigan 🐢

Wearing my fancy earbuds and listening to the mosquitoes, It felt just like I was there. Good girl Rokko.

Love your life. Thanks for always taking us along. Can't believe where you leave the camera sometimes knowing you have to backtrack to get it. Good call on the river crossing on not having camera out. We would much rather you be safe than showing us that. Incredible place once you got in there. So serene and beautiful.

Amazing adventure as always. Love how Rocko is taken care of with the mosquito covers and the jacket kangaroo pouch!

Can’t believe you made that trip alone. The boggy parts and the bugs would have done me in, even when I was young. What an amazing little dog also.

That's a real mountain dog 🐕

Those mosquitoes 🦟 were no joke! Rocko is such a trooper! 🤩🙌🐶💛

If some scriptwriter wanted to come up with the perfect nightmare for me, it would involve wading through a Northern BC swamp with swarms of evil bugs. Thanks for showing this Foresty, and now can we get on to something more pleasant, please?

Rocko is a machine, that is a very popular breed here in South Africa for their tenacity and general hardiness. Very cool little companions that are up for *anything*

Rocko hit the lotto with you Foresty! Such a beautiful existence...

I'm watching this in disbelief. What a view, and what a testament to your abilities.

Wow. This video was great. Who needs TV?

Omg foresty you need someone shooting video as you move along. The vigor of your hike is lost to brevity. Most people would take ten days to your five… you and Rocko are epic campers!

Thanks!

You are a bloody LEGEND, man. You keep inspiring me to push forward. Thank you!

There are approximately 10 Quintillion insects on earth, or about 1.5 Trillion for every human. Foresty showed us that ratio is accurate in this video.

I love the mutual friendship you have with Rocco, you respect her space. she does not respect your magic and lovely :o) x

I’m so proud of you, you’ve come such a long way since the beginning and now with your sidekick somehow she makes it even better. I’m so glad your in a bigger van, I was tired of getting claustrophobic just watching you. Lol. Take care keep up the incredible videos my friend and be safe.

Congratulations on your accomplishment!!! Rocko is a rockstar. Love that you put her inside the mosquito net with you.

So, I did a google map and found Ice Peak, and guess what Google had for an image....Rocko at the summit! Terrific trek, Foresty and Rocko!

DUDE!!! be carful out there the world needs you . Hi Roco! 🥰

Priceless! You AND Rocko sharing a head net!

What an epic adventure! We drove through that area back in 1989 when the Cassiar "highway" was still a gravel road, it was great to see it again, thanks so much for taking us along.

How cool was all that? Summit #161, #17 for Rocko. Woo hoo! 👍😎🇨🇦🐾📷🌊

Cool seeing the caribou. Rocko Is a perfect companion. Thanks for sharing

It is mind blowing to me seeing the terrain you went through. 4 days/130km is absolutely crazy stuff. You're a legend!

So Amazing, I have never seen anything like this and Forest's capabilities, talent and determination, no telling what he's going to do next, just wow !! 😯👍

Foresty Forest: always upping the game.

Give this man around of applause. That was one wicked hike

... still WAY better than anything on network TV !!! Thank you ...

That cariboo was huge! and the loons calling on the lake were so beautiful. Thanks for capturing that. I was fascinated by the age and erosion lines on that glacier ice. So ancient looking. Glad you made up and back safely, and that the damn black flies and mosquitos didn't suck you dry!

You and Rocko are amazing !!! Thanks for posting this part of BC most folks will never see.

Congratulations Foresty and Rocko on your great accomplishment! You're nothing if not intrepid!

HEY Hello and thumbs UP to you and Rocco

Forestry Forest does so much for us! All those back shots of tracking through the swampy areas means he had to go back to get the camera. 😮 Couldn't have been me. Loved the video! Such a great adventure.

Wow! Splendid! Caribou and moose antlers and loons and of course little Rocco in the moss! What a trip!

Damn dude. Don't think I've seen you go through more harsh terrain. Badass, The legend grows. Oh, and you too, not just Rocko. ;)

Absolutely gorgeous place! I’m a rockhound, so much obsidian would be going home with me😂. Rocko is my spirit animal, I would be rolling in the moss too. Thanks for bringing us along with you Foresty. Hugs & love to you and Rocko❤️❤️

that volcanic landscape was otherworldly! rocko is a champ

Maybe not the best video for those using quality headphones. Now I'm all itchy! Your stereo audio recording is on-point.

You never cease to amaze. Rocko is a real trooper. Her in the mosquito net... no man's land .

You are a machine, Foresty. Just a machine. Glad your trip was safe and rest up!
