Rocco has better self control around bacon than me

Foresty, thank you for the past year of content. I was diagnosed with cancer in December of 2021, and your channel has been my go-to on chemo weeks when I most need a smile (Rocko is a blessing!) and beautiful scenery - your cinematography is outstanding! Don't ever think your content is too boring or too short. I love to see just the nuts and bolts of your van life as much as the epic mountain climbs. Please be safe in 2023!

There's something truly magical about watching a man living so much at peace with himself and the life that he's designed for himself. You inspire me.

The little Rocko tracks in the snow next to yours are the cutest thing EVER 🐾

I’ve said it before, Simon, you are one intrepid dude and so is that pup. Re your pizza dough, for the love of everything sacred, you need to allow the yeast to ferment and rise the dough before you bake it. Otherwise you end up eating a flat, hard biscuit not puffy soft bread/pizza base. Give it 45 mins to increase in size. Pop your dough in a bowl drizzled w a bit of oil, cover, and let the yeast do its work. Your dough will become elastic. You could afford to add a bit more water, too. All the best for 2023!

Starting 2023 with a F.F. video is the best beginning I could wish for.

Dude, that drone footage at the mountain was phenomenal. Thanks Fo-doggy! Happy 2023. You're a freakin' legend.

The way you stick your pup in your jacket is the coolest thing I've ever seen. One lucky dog.

Happy New Year Foresty! Thank you for all the great content you put out, don't change a thing! All the best for you and Rocco in 2023, stay healthy!

Lived in a barn for the month of September with no running water or power. Forest, you helped inspire me to take that step. Sold my house, left my job and lived for once. It's gonna be a great 2023. Happy New Year to you and Rocko!

Honestly, could not imagine a better way to start 2023 other than actually being at these summits. Thank you, Foresty, for everything you do. Much love, brother

Most people who climb will do one summit and bore friends and family with the story and pictures. But our Forestry has done 177 what a summit man.

rocco gonna hold the record for the most summits of any dog for sure.

Your drone footage and choice of music is always fantastic. Do a montage of all your summits and im sure it would be a top viewed video. Happy new year!

Happy new year Foresty, have a 2023 full of slow cooks and many summits!

Imho, some of the best of FF videography in a while. ❤❤ His hand on the van door after the climb always brings a sigh of relief, even after all these years …🎉🎉🎉

Happy new year buddy! Thanks for continuing to take us all along with you! All the best to you & Rocco in 2023!

my friend the other day spent a few hours running around looking for a crock pot while he was on vacation, he eventually gave up and called me to rant, I told him your not going to find one because Forresty Forest who lives in a van went back to that way of cooking and he found a singing crock pot that probably caused a buying spree of Christmas shoppers buying every crock pot out there in hopes of finding one that sings

My first video on KZfaq for 2023.. keep em coming FF

Foresty does it all climbs mountains, cooks, cleans and cuts his own hair! love to see it

Rocko looked pretty tuckered out after that summit lol

Simon and Rocko wishing you two a safe and healthy 2023 with lots of peaks to bag! Love you!

the drone shots almost capture the majesty of those mountains. You've inspired me to get a drone!

I understand that you’re food cooking is truly important to your health and needs as a mountain climber. You probably use more energy than loggers in the old days. Good to stay healthy with the veggies. You definitely need it. Love watching your videos. I’ve always needed educational content. 🎉

Visual mind blow again at 1:46 Stunning! Video....had to rewind it three times...

2022 was full of great vids. 2023 will be better. Happy New Year and thank you, and Rocko, for entertaining us so well.

Gourmet dining on the road. You take good care of yourself and that's what makes life rich.

The aerial view from the drone is spectacular I could look at those views all day.

Happy New Year! This is officially the first KZfaq video I'm watching in 2023.

Happy trails in 2023, Foresty! Your films are an inspiration and comfort to this old feller!

fantastic to find a place for laundry and shower! with that and a store for food and firewood, plus post office and wifi, my life in a van could truly be worthwhile!

Rocco looks so lean and muscley. Such a great life for a dog 👌🏻

That pizza looked amazing! Take good care of yourself and Rocco. Blessings for a safe, healthy and fun 2023.

I’m wondering: could you train Rocko to retrieve the camera/tripod when you leave it behind for a “walking away” shot? Also, happy new year!

I love the way you hold your doggie. So sweet!

Love how this dude be making pizza in his van without a recipe. Legend.

Try letting the dough sit and rise. Cover it with plastic. When it's fluffy and light like feather knit it again. I'm not sure but to get a thin crust you should add only a little yeast and it should be the other kind the biological one. The water can't be too hot or it will mess up the fermentation. With all said I don't know for sure. It's a good question how to make thin crust dough. And you don't really need to cook it first, cook it with sauce and cheese and add the other toppings later. Ok I'll stop now.

Hey, thank you Foresty for helping me celebrate New Year's and the rest of the year...

That was a nice one. Breathtaking footage of the mountains covered in snow. Nobody does it better, Foresty!!!

Top notch stuff! Drone footage is EPIC! Thanks for showing off USA's beauty! ✨💢🐾

FF, Really enjoy your content! Where did your “Foresty Forest” introduction song go? My wife and I really liked it and it set the tone for your adventures. Just wanted you to know. Keep safe and keep the great videos coming! All the best, Clark

Such a trip. I visited family in Idaho for the first time in 20 years and it turns out Foresty was close by. I hiked mount Borah when I was a teen. It kicked my ass let me tell ya. But the view from the top was amazing. We did it in August. I’m not as hardcore as Foresty.

During the drone footage I like to play " where's Simon ".

This gentleman needs to be boosted come on people.

Happy New Year Brother You Have The Best Drone Footage In History 💥🥳👍

That dog is cute

Oh Foresty, you got me again. Those drone shots were other worldly. You are no longer My Dear Lone Wolf (obviously 🐕) You are now My Favorite Mountain Man Godspeed

I like watching the snow blowing up and over the top of the mountain.

Happy new years Foresty! If you want to up your pizza game I would highly recommend to increase the dough hydration (eg 70%) and let it rise longer, so the gluten can develop and bubbles can form. Keep up your cooking adventures, it’s really fun to see what you can prepare!:)

That drone view of the mountains is fantastic! Foresty and Rocco happy new year to you two have fun and safe trips in the years to come, stay safe and healthy! From very warm rainy southern Ontario 🇨🇦

Rock em Sock em Rocko just zooms up those peaks

Love the drone footage. Seeing vistas I’d never see without your generosity. Thank you FF.

Wishing you and Rocko a happy and healthy 2023!

Thank you for giving me some peace in my New Year Eve.. Love your channel

Rocko is a machine

IM NOT SURE ABOUT ANYONE ELSE BUT MY 2022 WAS GREAT SPENDING IT WITH FORESTY FOREST AND ROCCO. LOOKING FORWARD TO 2023 WITH BOTH YOU GUYS!!

Another killer vid! Thanks Foresty, happy new year!

I use Roland Balsamic glaze but I never got around to reducing it like that- I will have to try that when out of glaze. That peak is definitely striking!

WOW..the views from the drone are amazing...I feel like I was right there hiking up to the top as well.....Rocco is a real trooper...thank you

Thank you for your efforts and showing us Sooooo much of our Beautiful Mother Nature,,💐💐🙏🙏

Happy new year Rocco and Forest ! Many thanks for 2022, all the best for you two in 2023 🎉

Another great Rocko and Foresty Forest summit. Yay. Best way ever to start the New Year!

Once your wood or block is burning hot turn the front air intake way down. They will burn slower and last longer. As long as there's very little smoke coming out the chimney it's an efficient burn. Thank you for your hard work on this channel!!

I enjoy watching you cooking and sleeping and what you do inside the van than hiking.

Happy New Year Foresty! Always makes me a smile when I see that pup. Safe travels out there

Wishing you & Rocko continued safe travels in 2023! 🎊

Thanks for sharing your mountaineering adventures. A great way to end 2022 or beginning 2023. I really like your humble attitude Forestry.

Dude, after a long day, I'm like, hey where's my turkey slices and some cheese?? Let's call that dinner. I'm blown away that you don't even have the pre-cooked bacon! Much respect.

Perfect timing!! Foresty Forest

Happy New Years to you and your bestie. I love the content bud! Rocko is surely living her best life

I appreciate your adventures and the camera work.

Thank you for the jacket on Rocko.

Happy 2023! Thanks for all the cozy videos. I've enjoyed all of them. Wish you, Rocco, and the mighty crockpot good health and spirit :-)

HI FORESTY AND ROCCO!! YOU ALWAYS MAKE WHAT YOUR COOKING LOOK SO EASY AND YUMMY. THAT PIZZA LOOKED AMAZING. IT'S A WONDER ROCCO DIDN'T ATTACK IT. HA HA!! HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER AND HOPE THE FUTURE IS BETTER FOR YOU. THANKS AND STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY ❤️ 🙏❤️🙏

Congratulations on the success of your channel, you deserve it great work.

Happy new year you two hope to see you soon in my home state of Wyoming

Thank you for a year of great videos and for reminding us that there is a big wide world out there that we should get out of our chairs and see. May 2023 be a healthy year of fun adventures for you and Rocco!

Forestry, if you make your pizza dough ahead and give it time to rise before rolling out, the crust with be lighter/less dense.

Your videos are so inspirational. One day I will have a van of my own.

Incredible. Thank you… beautiful to see from your eyes.

What a beautiful new year surprise! Happy New Year to you and Rocko. You just made my night! I hope you found a turkey dinner. Take care Simon. 🐕🏔❤‍🔥🎆🐐

Happy New Year to you and Rocko. This climb was beautiful. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 Look forward to 2023 adventures 😀

Oh Wow that PIZZA! It looked really next level gourmet.

Higher hydration, and longer rest (overnight in fridge) will make for a more elastic dough that you can stretch thinner.

Happy New Year Simon. Love Dad

A happy and healthy New Year 2023 to you and Rocko, Foresty! Many more summits, slow cooks, and awesome adventures.

The first of 2023!

Thanks!

Happy new year Foresty and Rocko. I don't know what the record is for a man and his dog climbing to the top of mountains, but I am certain that you guys will set the world record together.

Happy New Year Forestry. What an awesome view. The only word I could come up with Wow! Anyway I wish you the very best in 2023. Happiness, Peace, God health and Prosperity

To KEY to making ANY dough is - REST THE DOUGH - For yeast leaven dough, knead for NO LESS than 10 minutes - Rest covered for 2 hours - LET IT RISE TO DOUBLE SIZE - Roll out into thin crust pizza. Enjoy 😎

Looking forward to your videos is 2023, FF, and Moresty, and Rocko.

🎉🎉 Happy New year, what a great video, lovely way to ring 23 watching you and wonder dog do your thing. That pizza looked amazing! All the best!

That pizza looked good! I'm going to have to stop watching you at night when you make such delicious looking meals! It's 3am and I'm hungry now. LOL Happy New Year Simon and Rocko! I'm hoping that 2023 will be a good year for everyone.

That mountain looks like a monster.

You are amazing with the adventures you go on.Glad you have Rocko to keep you company. 🇨🇦

Happy New Year from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Thanks for another great year of videos. Don’t let you burning bricks get any moisture into them as they will swell. I make them for a living, I have a customer who cuts them up as he has a small stove. Just be aware of the dust.

Happy New Year Foresty. You are a beast. Thank you for posting and take good care of you.

“Poor” weather = hot springs weather. Gotta love ID.

Happy New Year Forrest and Rocko, all the best regards from here on the West Coast side of Australia 🌏 Batavia Coast 🙏🖖🤟🇦🇺
