i’m a grown man watching another grown man build a fort. my father would be proud.

I have this weird addiction to watch bushcraft videos at 2AM.

Tripper is still just such a puppy, I love him. It will take time until he finds his old man wisdom like Scout :)

Since you mentioned it within the last couple seconds of the video: Yes, you do inspire people to go outside and have an adventure! I watched your videos, when it was still Scout by your side (may he rest in piece with all the firewood he can steal). It inspired me to go outside and it caught on to my girlfriend as well. Unfortunately we can‘t bushcraft as much in Germany but we did our first 170km trekking tour this summer. It took us 12 days (9 days hiking) through Portugal and we loved it. The next trip will take us to the highlands of Scotland and I just wanted to let you know, that you WERE a part of the spark that lit our adventure fire within. Take care!!

Its good to see you still out doing this stuff. Your the man joe, ive been watching you for a couple years now and ive learned alot from ya and when I started watching you it really helped with my depression and gave me the motivation to get up and get out and start camping. So thanks for all the vids and keep em coming🙌

AWESOME FORT! Great vid as always! Cheers from Alberta

Didn't know you were a skater back in the day. I just got back into it a few years ago. I'm 40 now.lol your videos are awesome. Keep up the good work . I'll be out in the woods alot in the next few months . I don't film but i enjoy the outdoors. My daughter and I love this time of year.

You know Joe has young ones when he whistles Baby Shark. 😂

loved the colours in this video Joe. Something special being out in the woods during the fall. The colours, the cold crisp nights and if you're lucky a gorgeous sunrise.

Found your channel about 2 weeks ago, i haven't stopped watching since, great content. Hi from the UK!

Thank you for the video Joe! It sure does inspire.. The first video of yours i watched was a overnighter with old Scoot two years ago. "Overnight Bushcraft Camp with my Dog - Long Fire, Wool Blanket, Fire Reflector" it was. That video was the initial thing that set the spark for me. And i'm really thankful for that. Keep doing what you do. More videos with Tripper!

He reminds me of Scout also he’s going to be a good companion in the woods he’s so alert with every noise he hears... dudes on point 👉🏻

Now that's an awesome fort. Tripper was just helping you dig out the dirt. Great video 👍👍👍👍

These videos are a huge inspiration for me. Was going through a spell where I lost touch with my love of nature and hiking and the outdoors in general when I found your channel. Was inspired to put together a camping trip with friends and it was one of the best weekends of my life to date. That trip got me right back into the woods, now I hike nearly every weekend (weather permitting). You kick ass, man, keep doing what you're doing.

Hi Joe! Just wanted to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire series on building the fort!! I amazed at your skills when it comes to bushcraft, really good stuff. I also enjoy watching you with your dog Tripper. I too am a dog lover, I can't wait to get off work so I can go home to play with them outdoors every evening. I had never heard of you before & had just started watching & getting into bushcraft on KZfaq, when I saw your farewell video in honor of Scout. My heart was broken for you & Scout both. I went back through your video library & started watching several of your overnight trips with Scout and I became hooked & a dedicated Joe Robinet fan! I've watched all of your videos with Tripper so far & love them too! I'm hoping to start work on my own fort real soon, of course Joe Robinet style. Can't wait to see how my dogs react to that. Anyway, keep doing what you do Joe, & I'll keep watching!!

Hi Joe! I'm a 68-yr old grandma from the Phil... your fan and subscriber for 2 yrs now. Just love to watch you do your thing in the woods. Do finish your fort...I'm watching it closely....excited too.

Trippers having a good time

Love the shelter brother. The camp is coming together. I really like your idea of calling it a "fort." I've been building a "fort" of my own over on my channel. I enjoy seeing yours progress. Awesome work! 👍

Such an inspiration to me Joe. You inspired me to take some outdoor journeys myself. Keep up the good work man I love your content.

The very first sentence: "We got a new frying pan"

Looking great Joe! Exactly one year ago I went to Canada to camp "JOE STYLE" for the first time and was my first video. Always inspriring my friend!

I just love watching Tripper!!! He is such a cool dog. I love fall too. It was great just to see you out there.

Enjoyed your day in the woods at the new fort. Tripper is a real trip for sure, Peace.

you and tripper made the woods even more beautiful - thanks for taking us all along.

What a beautiful setting and even a Canadian tire story, love it

your videos are fantastic for escaping the day-to-day. from a guy who doesnèt get out much, I appreciate joining in on your adventures.

I like your final comments! It's your videos that inspired me to get back out in the wild and take a step back from the busy life. I've started to build my own shelter in the woods by a Loch. Needs a lot of work to be anywhere near as good as yours though Joe. Thank you for being an inspiration in this journey I'm now on!

very nice shelter set up with plenty of space inside!Well done Joe and keep up the great work!!!!

Tripper is hilarious! Love that guy. Him watching all those great sticks being used for firewood was more than he could take, LOL. Great stuff, Joe.

The fort looks great. Can’t wait to see what it looks like when finished.

Joe, you do inspire. I just got back from a week camping in the southwest desert in the US. I haven't been camping in 20 years and you reminded me why I loved it so much when I was younger. To see, travel, experience and learn. And I even brought my dog. Thank you for doing what you do.

Trust me Joe it pumps me up when im about to head out and prep-watch a video!!! Thanks for the motivation!

Looks great. Looking forward to some winter camp vids from there. Keep’em coming Joe!

Dam Joe, if that shelter gets any more elaborate they'll start charging you taxes!

Great video, have always loved watching shelter making videos. Video and sound quality are awesome way beyond my capability currently.

The start of this video started like one of your old school bushcraft videos!!! Nostalgic!!!

Thanks from Greece for your videos..my love to your dog!!!

Love the videos, the fort is a super cool project. I like to see the more real time progress aspect and see that it is a long term thing. I love the snow time overnight camping ones with minimal gear. It always amazed me how you kept your watch out for temps and showed how warm your fire reflectors kept your bed. So cool. Tripper looks like a riot.

Im a definite inside person but am doing a series of ADA hikes around my area that ends in the Phoenix Summit challenge. Not much of a hike for most but achallenge for me in my wheelchair :) Might not be building a fort but we all have to set our own goals :) Thank you as always for the wonderful videos.

Loved your parting words Joe. That's what it's all about. Just getting out there and enjoying yourself.

Love you, Joe. Keep up the good work ;)))

The shelter is looking awesome Joe !!! Can’t wait for you to make an overnight camp video there 😀👍

Joe, seems like you should carve yourself a decent spatula. 🤗 Great work. I love to see it in progress. Great dog!

What a stunning Dutch Sheppard you have! Absolutely beautiful!

I can't believe the quality of the camera that you're using. Gorgeous.

Tripper is such a scout grabbing the tree whenever you cut it down it’s like he never left (love you scout❤️)

Thanks Joe, keeping the bushcraft alive!!!

What a good looking pup! He is very very cool. Love the cast iron egg skillet too! That breakfast grub looks so delish. That's the way you do it!

Just a little tip for you. When you do your walls, fat end down then skinny end down on next. don't have to worry about the angles so much then.

I am wanting to do this in my own yard, kind of a permanent "camp" when I'm home for a future video on my own channel. Good stuff man. Keep it up. You're an inspiration to many.

Greetings all the way from Denmark. Love your videos :-D

Awsome video. Got me all motivated to build another fort. I'm 61 years old and still building forts in the bush. Absolutely love it. Thanks for the motivation. Lol

Back to the fort let’s go! 💪

Always good to see you and Trip, Joe, hope the family is doing well

The end of the video summed it up nicely Joe....it has motivated me to get out and reconnect with the wilderness. Greatest thing ever to get back out there. I spent many years in the woods as teenager and had gotten away from same. So thankful for your channel and all the bushcraft channels for inspiring me. Get out in the woods.....even a fire and cup of coffee ....as good as it gets. Joe your channel has far reaching effects more than you can comprehend:) Ba bam son:)

I loved watching this video. Tripper after a mole? Ha Really cool camp cabin. Can't wait to see it finished. Nice solid construction. At 71 I can't campout like I used to but can vicariously by watching your videos. Means a lot to me. Boy! Those Autumn leaves swaying and singing! Could almost smell them. Take good care, Pat from southern Indiana.

Watching your video's are just pure relaxation. I love them!

Joe you definitely inspire me to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Recently went backpacking/camping in the middle of no where in upper michigan. tied up my tarp and was able to remember " Two on the inside, one on the outside" :)

Canada is so beautiful! Fall colors too! You are a lucky man Joe. Tripper is awesome when he is growling and wants to play.

Love the video Joe! I originally subscribed to you for your bushcraft stuff, I'm glad you and Tripper are having fun!

It sure makes me longing to get out there. going back home in December and gonna make sure to have many outdoor trips with plenty of coffees brewed over a fire. :)

17:30 " should've brought the handle..." DUDE! There are 90 handles growing in the background.

Great progress man. Have an awesome weekend, Andreas 🇸🇪

These videos keep me and my family going! Thank you from my family to yours!

Tripper growling at the fire was adorable

The cast iron skillet will still rust if left out there. I have a griddle I keep covered inside of my grill (outside) and it still rusted. Save yourself a headache of cleaning off the rust and carry it with you. Love your channel.

Great video Joe... And I do get pumped up by watching your video's before I head out to the Wood's.

Outstanding video Joe!!!! Really loved it!!!!❤️❤️❤️🏕🏕🏕

you should make a merch line that all says "not too shabby." id buy that

looks awesome buddy, and hey if you were serious about Sweden let us Scandinavian fans know, I want to shake the hand of a legend😉🤘

I have missed watching your content. It’s always nice to sit down after a hard and bad day to go watch your content, it always puts me in a good mood. Keep up the amazing work! 👊🦈

I absolutely do the same thing: getting hyped up with videos. I decided today halfway through your video to go out for a 6km hike in the snow. Thanks for the inspiration! I look forward to the next one that will help me get out there.

Love the dog his happy and healthy,and activate!!

Finally, my wait is over, Friday here we come!

Very cool, awesome video! you got my ideas flowing for a cool shelter build in my camp. I saw a nice natural slingshot fork in the pile of scrap wood you had there.

The sound at 16:25 makes me miss spending time in the Rockies. Thanks for capturing that

«Woooohhh buddy» sounded like Shug... 😊

I have been waiting for you to post another vid and love the vids

Nice to see simple not fancy stuff, cheap tapes, budget iron, still works. Have been trying to get a budget camp set out together.

A big fan of yours from down in Southern Ontario close to where you used to be. I love your videos Joe, I’ve been watching them for over 3 years now. I love this shelter and you’ve inspired me to start making my own out in the woods.

Looks like Tripper could use a chew toy, or something like Shaun has for Calli. (That throwable orange thingy)

Joe have you ever thought about making a bunker/underground style shelter would be really interesting to see

Keep coming back to the fort! Love those videos!

Love these videos Joe and the adventures with your dogs. As a UK watcher I also appreciated the "Lovely" and "Righto" :D

Hey man, I’m back after a while and one of the last videos I remember when a great dog named scout passed away. I’ve noticed that you got a new dog now and he looks pretty cool.Nice videos 👍

Remember that time when all you had to do in the school holidays was go off with your best friends into the woods and build a base for days on end. Hmmmmmmmmm. Thanks Joe!

Nice! Glad to see the Scout in action! I can't wait to get mine =) Super cool fort Joe. The girls are probably enjoying the break from the boys.

Awesome videos Joe, keep it up. I have been watching you for many years, I love nature and find it really relaxing watching your videos. I loved the camping vids with your old dog scooter/scout. Now you have a new dog, hope he will go camping with you to. Keep your hard work on the high, wish you the best of luck with your bowls and I have noticed you seem more better recently which is very good, I am from England 🇬🇧

He's got the Doug Shirt on!

'Joe-Jitsu' fells tree with Canadian martial arts kick!

Headed to Vancouver Island for season 2 of Alone this was the concept I had in mind for my fort...um, shelter. I wanted a solid structure around my sleeping area and I was going to use my tarp as a wide/tall shell to give me some workspace off the front. I got to my zone and found I had very few poles. All my trees were massive. I had to scrounge around to get the poles needed to frame up the shelter I made.

Great to see you back in the woods rather than the canoe! Tripper is coming along great! Devine intervention from Scout maybe? Cant wait for the next adventure. Be Well

8:42 dad songs. I have a few in my head as well. 🎵Ryder and his team of pups🎶 LoL 😆

I love how you started this project in the winter, having to dig through feet of snow, and now it's fall and clear. It's just so interesting to me how the fort develops across the seasons.

Can't wait to see this one in the snow Joe.! looks awesome man

I love this! We go to the creek at our friends house and it is nice and wooded. We made a tent out of sticks and a tarp. It survived the hurricane, strong winds, strong rains, and even snow! It was nice and comfy! We definitely want to try and get more wood for a fort. We live in the city, so we can't cut down random trees down there. It might hit a house! We are also kids..so...

Tripper, like Scout, sees you chopping up wood so he's doing his version of helping you... grin...

Canadian Tire? They tried to expand to the US twice, their last attempt was in the 90s. They lost a lot of money

Mission accomplished. Each time I watch one of your videos, I know it's time to get out and spend some time in the woods. Keep it up, brother.

Great vid as always Joe! Your vids such an inspiration to me. watching Ray mears growing up was what led me to love bushcraft but you have been the one that has driven me to get out and do it, Thank you for that. Tom.
