What's the opposite of click bait. Lol. Footage of a bear running near the tent you're going to sleep in and the title is 'camping with my dog'. 😂. Click repellent? Great video though 😊

This channel is so real. Nothing crazy and overdone or fabricated like most of the camping, hiking, overlanding, etc channels have become. PLEASE don’t change what you’re doing. Watching someone else, especially younger, go through the trials and learning curves is so real. This is content that some of us have been searching for.

I am really enjoying your videos. You can communicate your love for the Wilderness with simplicity and pure storytelling✨

I swear, fear of animals, ESPECIALLY bears, is my biggest fear while out camping alone. I got a truck camper a few years ago. LOVE it. If I got to my camping locating and it was dark or raining, I didn't have to worry about putting up a tent. I could just jump into the back of my truck. Plus I felt more secure.

I love that you give Kyro his own sleeping pad and not make him sleep on the hard ground

Not so relaxing to experience sleeping close to a bear, but relaxing to watch on KZfaq 😄 excited to see the new adventure rig!

Kiro is such a good travel buddy and quite stylish in his sweater. What a great camp spot for you both to enjoy.

Couldn't think of a better way to spend the long weekend. Gorgeous mountains and great storytelling..

I am avid solo backpacker who hikes with my dog too. She is my best friend. We have hiked over 400 miles since last summer. Your video was beautiful. What a beautiful area to hike.

Very positive young lady who is happy and inspirational. Love the dog. So well behaved. It's nice to enjoy beautiful surroundings alone with her buddy

I've been road-tripping and camping out of my 2008 4Runner for years. I removed the back seats, built a platform, a 42 inch drawer and a couple shelves. I use a Jackery 1500 for power. It's a great setup in a reliable off-road rig. I highly recommend it! I love following your adventures... keep them coming! Good luck with the fishing. Camp-cooked trout is (in my opinion) just the best! :) :)

We recently got a 3rd gen 4Runner for our adventures and absolutely LOVE IT. It’s super spacious, has great clearance, and is really awesome off-road! It’s the perfect adventure truck! Highly recommend!! 😄

Omg the nature is breathtaking! I would probably cry to see it in person.

Another great video👍, i totally get why going solo is therapeutic for an empathetic soul. Looking forward to watching your next adventure!

What a beautiful place. Your energy and smile, how your puppy just loves you. It's a wonderful way to just escape what the world has become. Ty for you hard work and excellent content. You quickly became one of my favorites. Foresty forest has been my favorite for years. I built a tiny home box truck because of him. I'm soon to be 61. I do some of what you do but my body is sore and hurt from years of hard work. I dearly love seeing all that y'all do. I pray for your safety and admire your courage. Such a deeply happy smile you have. Ty for sharing what you do. Sincerely

Oh Madison, I envy you so much. To be only a few hours away from those beautiful mountains and that pitch was the perfect spot. It brings me joy seeing young folks such as yourself with such a deep appreciation for the outdoors. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.

That dog is living THE LIFE

Great video. I love your positivity. Keep those videos coming. Enjoy and be safe out there!

The storyline with catching fish is continuing. Everytime I watch these episodes I’m tensely waiting, if she will finally catch a fish, but we have to wait until next episode I guess. 😂 It was still fun to watch no doubt. 😃

Thank you for being you! Your spirit and pup are definitely appreciated.

I always call those snafus scouting missions and even tho plans get shifted,those missions are important. But gosh,all the tail wagging and playing with Kyro makes this video especially awesome! That spot was incredible and those larch are going to look spectacular before too long. Thanks so much for sharing that experience 🌲

I don't know where to start. Just discovered your channel and I enjoy everything on it. It is so rare to find beautiful, peaceful, positive content on KZfaq nowadays. And you are so beautiful and calm... Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I also envy you for living so close to probably the nicest mountain landscapes in the world. Greetings from Romania (also a very very beautiful country).

Loving your videos! Stay safe out there! Love from Cape Town, South Africa.

kiro is such a good dog it is suitable for travel. feel the experience alone is very boon to you ☺

Very cool! Adventure on! My 4 year old daughter and I watch your videos together and she loves them! Thanks for inspiring people to get outdoors. Sweet to see more Canadian content!

That was a great day. Thanks for bringing us along.

I'm amazed that this was your first bear encounter, especially as you favor the back country. In my very first trip to the Canadian Rockies, two weeks ago, to the highly touristed Moraine Lake, in Alberta, a momma bear and her cub were close to a main trail. A video taken from other tourists just four days later showed the momma and cub following them on the trail...not threateningly, but only about 10 meters behind the tourists. I myself would be afraid to hike the back country alone.

Your videos and so enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work, Madison!

The trees you showed were alpine fir not western larch. The needles on larch are much softer and thinner and yes they do turn yellow and are shed in late fall. I am glad the bear kept going and did not return in the night. Great video, beautiful scenery, much respect for you and your trusty dog!

I like your videos because they present actual situations without theatrics; in other words I believe you genuinely present what you really experience without exaggerations . Keep up the good work !

A real hiking and camping vlog, refreshing. You weather is like here.

I'm a big hunter and hiker, so I do a lot of weekend trips by myself for deer, and week long trips with my dad for elk. We pack in and get away from cell service, a great way to get out and relax the mind and stress relief after the 50 hour a week work grind.

You’re awesome , my new favourite outdoorsman. I’ve been living your lifestyle for 40 + years and you are exactly where you need to be. Well done

Your channel is honestly my favourite camping and outdoors channel! So many good tips for people starting out too

You have one of the first sponsors that I also totally recommend! Love your videos. Thank you!

The views and mountains you've got in the west are truly breathtaking! Hope I get to hike in BC sooner than later too 😊

Beauty is fleeting, Madison. Flaunt it while you can; you know, between the silence and the noise!

I also enjoy solo hiking and camping!! Nice video. People are often shocked when I tell people I enjoy camping solo, but for me, it can be super recharging! 😊

A toyota tacoma with a canopy on the back makes for a great adventure mobile. I have a bed and drawer setup in the back. Works well for stealth camping or basecamp for hiking.

I really really appreciate the calmness you bring with this videos, stay safe out there! A bigger rig would definitely help out you and Kyro can enjoy more comfort and safety

This is what it's about! Get out there, and feel alive. I love your spirit ❤‍🔥

Good evening Madison & Kyro ! Another great video with an awesome location ! You’re a very loving & caring Mommy ! I think it’s great that you take the time to also think about Nature ! To cherish & to help keep it in it’s natural state ! Keep up the great work, stay safe & keep smiling !

I always enjoy your videos happy camping and hiking. 😊☮️

What a location. When you were above Kyro and the tent with the lake at the bottom below...wow....it looked like a puzzle picture.

This has rocketed to my favourite channel. Even your sponsor part comes through with such sincerity.. And, you're amazing..

You’re inspiring… Keep it up. It hit home when you said you feel most alive when you’re stripped down to your basic needs.

What a beautiful place to be , Kyro really happy toooooo. Take care both

Amazing scenery. Thanks!

You could keep the Subaru and upgrade to an all-terrain tire and a small lift but, if you want to be limited much less in where you can go the 4runner or Wrangler are a good option. More room, very capable even without modifications. You will take a hit in mpg though, probably 7 or 8 overall. Doing adventuring right costs a little bit but, it's all part of the fun! As for fishing, use light line and small lures to up your chances.

Your videos are always very positive and charming! I hope your channel becomes so successful that you can buy whatever new vehicle you want 😊

You find really Epic places to camp. Great video and thanks for sharing. I enjoyed watching you both have a great adventures. Have a wonderful day!

Great video, beautiful landscapes. Be very careful with bears. Take care ❤

I'm working on a setup for myself to do weekend trips, and your videos are inspiration.

One of the many delights of your videos is how you share your knowledge with others in such a positive and cheerful way, as you did in pointing out the risk of inadvertently carrying around invasive species. The humor is fun, too: you were talking to Kyro as you put on his sweater, "What have you been eating?" seconds later... "oh, such a handsome boy!" :) He seems to be the best of companions! Don't tell the Ursack naysayers that you used n Ursack in -- gasp -- proximity of a brown bear and it survived just fine! Always a pleasure when your video pops in the feed. Thank you for the vicarious trek and excursion that I enjoyed on a workday evening, far from my own eastern US wilderness where I long to be.

Awesome views in those mountains. I believe i would just sleep by the fire and fall asleep looking at the stars all night. Enjoy the hiking and exploring. Your dog has too love all the trips in the mountains im sure.Keep up the hard work and great content you show us 👍

Another great video! I love how your videos are so pure, honest and relaxing to watch. With regards to suggesting a new camping rig I would say it depends on your preferences but you can look at Toyota Tacoma, 4 Runner, maybe Land Cruiser too, but as I said it really depends if you are looking for a truck to take you through tougher roads or just you would like to have more space. I look forward to your next video!

Nice video and some beautiful scenery! The bear was the perfect touch too. But not too close :) I would definitely recommend a 4Runner for more serious overlanding since you're pushing the limits of your car now. Either a TRD or even the base SR5 model would be great. You can haul more gear on the roof rack and it's great for stealth camping. You can add a sleep platform behind the seats and some blackout shades for the windows.

Haha Kiro/Nala stomps and bird calls at the end had my laughing

Awesome camp with some amazing beautiful views.

Oh man that campsite you chose just brings back awsum memories, thanks for sharing another great video ✌

Comfort in the silence. I agree.

A wonderful moment for a peaceful day

I really like this channel a lot. Thank you, Madison and Kyro. Love from the USA.

Extraordinary scenery, be safe…

Hey Madison, thanks for sharing your adventure. You are a wonderful content creator, and I really enjoy watching your videos. Solo camping for me is nothing short of therapy itself. It clears your mind and gives me a feeling of belonging. Belonging and being one with nature. When I was solo camping in Northern Minnesota, I was told about a bear sighting in the area. I never saw it, but it definitely gives you a heightened sense of awareness. Be safe and have a great fall.🤗

My experience with fishing in the rain is - just before it rains the fish will turn on, & just as the rains stop the fish will be on a feeding frenzy. So yeah enjoy the rain.

Stunning scenery! I struggle to switch off from life stuff when out in the hills, need to work on that to enjoy them more and leave the issue's behind at least until back home! Keep up the great videos.

I’m a new subscriber. I absolutely love your dog. He is so sweet and fun and loving towards you.

I love your videos Madison. I admire your solo backpacking adventures and feel more confident doing my own after seeing your trips. You've inspired me to go car camping too. In a future video, can you talk about how you find the right roads to pull off at for the night? I wouldn't know where to start searching for the right places!

I love camping and the scenery you are with the best friend sent you a big hug from Alaska USA🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅

amazing trip, breathtaking. awesome bear moment too

Awesome video! If you get a pickup truck with a 6 foot bed they make tents that are built to go in the back of the truck. That would get you off of the ground and maybe more safe from bears.

I love my Toyota Tacoma with a rooftop tent. For safety you might want a 4wd van where you can pass to the drivers seat from your bed. Or get a camper shell for your pickup with a pass through window.

I love your videos. Love watching you enjoying Nature. Keep it up and stay healthy. PS: You look amazing in all of your videos.

That’s one lucky dog. He’s living the life!

wow.. stunning landscape! just gorgeous! your blue mug, blue rug, blue shirt and blue eyes. amazing!!!

5:10 I LOVE her dog. They are such great company. So glad she has one to go along with her. This showed up in my recommended videos. I'm subscribing. Thumbs up!

That was really smart to eat, cook and hang food at the same spot well away ftom tent!

I own a Silverado with a tonneau cover. I've been known to escape out somewhere and sleep under the tonneau cover. It's a bit noisier than my old Subaru, but effective enough at keeping the elements off you. It's a 5'6" bed so I have to scrunch up or turn sideways. But, at any point I can add a camper shell like Mav's, I just like the simplicity of throw gear in the truck, get out, come back, drive truck...

It's amazing that you wake up and have the face of an angel.

Awesome video thanks again Madison ✌️

Great overnight trek into fantastic mountain country ! I like your gear set up it works well for you !! Great video !!

wow stunning locations! lucky! what really boost the nature experience is to learn to meditate properly, its also the best help self advice one can get. because you wont need a shrink no more. its also much easier to meditate in nature then in home. I recommend learning vipasana , pranayama, Shamatha, zen, dzogchen, etc..

I spent two months doing what you're doing. I'm from Charlotte NC and I also only used my truck for camping. I took all the seats out except the driver's seat and used the passenger side for my sleeping bag. It's an experience that everyone should have at sometime in their lift. Safe and enjoyable travels to you!

I,ve never seen anything as beautiful. And the scenery is pretty too.

Looks like you guys had a great time out, beautiful scenery! But that bear, oh my! I'm not sure if I would've been able to sleep very well, haha. Looking forward to your next adventure!

Lots of introverted hermits out there. Hope more will watch this excellent video. Beautiful, rich content. Thanks for sharing.

The sounds in the last 5 seconds of the video was awesome

She’s not alone.

Madison, I love your intro to this video. I often feel as though I am living in the wrong era…100 years too late. I deeply enjoy getting out into the backcountry, away from people and the rush of modern life; away from cell service and the noise. I realize that living 100 years ago wouldn’t be easier, but it would be simpler and less distracting. Your videos are quite calming. Never let an opportunity to enjoy peace and quiet slip away. I don’t know how much larger you wish to go with your next adventure vehicle, but a Toyota Tacoma will be super reliable and get you places you wouldn’t think possible…at twice the cost of Subaru fuel. I’ve had seven Subarus and enjoyed all of them. I currently have a Tacoma and a Ford F-150. Putting a camper shell on the back is an inexpensive way to increase your mobile living space. Moving up to a pop up, slide-in camper on a pickup greatly increases the comforts of camping. Happy trails!!!

Such a beautiful location. I have a fairly irrational fear of bears so I don't think going out in a tent in the back country is for me but it's absolutely beautiful and I can very much appreciate that 😊

Great video. That camp site was drop dead gorgeous, cooler than cool. An all wheel drive Astro van may be a good fit for you.

Madison, I traded in my Rav4(2017) for a 4Runner (2016) to handle the FSRs better. Get a 4Runner, put some KO2 tires on it. When you reach an FSR, use a tyre deflator and deflate down to 18-20psi. You will have a very comfortable ride and open up so many new camping spots. Good luck!

We love our jeep wrangler sport model we got the 2023 version with a hard top option row bars, ram guard like protections, etc. etc.

Gurl I feel so comfortable just watching this video, this is literally my dream life🥺 best wishes for your dog friend and you!

so so awesome your videos as you making for all of us to watch.

Some very beautiful views 💖

i think im in love... lol so awesome its tough camping in this texas heat but love the outdoors so its awesome to see you doing this up north

Madison….much credit to you for getting out by yourself and enjoying nature. You are my kind of woman. I would love to camp with you. Your face looks so beautiful and alive. Your photography and editing are wonderful. Keep on posting videos. Thanks for sharing.

I love this girl!! Wish I had started hiking/camping long ago. Also I worked for Better Help for a while. Great advert !
