Rocko walking along with you on the trails is just plain heartwarming. She's been a positive addition to your adventures.

From Sydney, Australia. Kangaroo meat is probably equivalent to your bison meat.....not everybody would buy it as an everyday protein. You can buy it in the local supermarkets....similar price to beef. Interesting you can find it over in Canada. First time commenting here. Been watching your videos about a year now and thoroughly enjoy them.....one of the best videos to watch. It has everything and your cinematography is on par with the very best and even better than many. I am going back watching your earlier fat bike videos. Keep safe and well. And give Rocko a tummy rub for me.

I'm so happy Rocko decided to keep you on when the show became her show.

Rocco is buffed and cut. Those front paws and legs look like super doggie strength.

Yes a new episode of Rocco’s Van Life featuring Foresty Forest 😁

Foresty keeping the pooping bear shot… classic 😂

Hands down, that dog is living her best life.

Should have “an extra spring in my step”. 😂 The spring sound effect was hilarious!

You're THE renaissance man Simon! Please don't worry about your video's cohesiveness. We'd all watch you do anything hahaha

Rocco at the dog park was awesome. She was a wild child who had never been to town. The socialization was probably good for her. Your videos never disappoint and they don’t always have to be cohesive to entertain.

It was heartwarming to see Rocko playing with other dogs @ the dog park.

That guy jammin out on the guitar had no idea he was in the presence of KZfaq royalty....❤

You Sir are a hell of a cinematographer.

Protect this man at all costs

I'm impressed by how well Rocco did on a leash, and I'm glad that you're keeping the kangaroo infestation under control in BC.

Awww Rocko was so happy visiting 'city' life and playing with friends.

That very last shot there ... did Rocko really scare the bear that much? 🤣

Foresty & Rocko live in a van (happiest dog ever!)

Australian here, Kangaroo is fairly common here and you'll find it at most supermarkets, no where near as common as beef, chicken or pork though. When eating it as a fillet it is usually served rare and can be quite delicious

Finally the question that has been lingering for eternity has been solved at the very end of the video. They do indeed!!

Always nice to see one of the few vanlifers with the bare essentials living simple. #Minimalism

The last shot was priceless. We finally know the answer to that question people have been asking for centuries...and it's YES! :-)

Thank you very much, Foresty Forest, for answering that question about what bears do in the woods via video evidence.

🤣🤣🤣🤣"should have some extra spring in my step". Hilarious!

What a difference having a wonderful doggo in your life can make! Rocco seems to be the perfect companion.

Time for Rocco to rock ‘n roll…🐶🐶🐶

"Choose your own adventure mountain." Some (Canada) Dry humor from Foresty Forest!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🐶❤🐶

I like the ramble jamble style of this one, feels like I experienced more. Cool how that little bee landed on your fingertip. And watch out for birds of prey, Rocco isn't very heavy.

Your DIY portion of your videos are honestly the best parts of your videos, right after the drone shots

“Extra spring in your step” after eating the roo burgers is the type of dad joke I’m here for

Eating, sleeping, ball chasing with the occasional mountain hike barking at bears. Living the dream life..Rock on Rocko!

9:31 such a cool shot with the little bug friend!

Great vid Forestry. Enjoyed that. The bear taking a dump at the end was just too hilarious for words. LOL 🤣🤣

That was an a!mazing shot of that hover fly landing on your finger! Yeah, I can relate to Rocko, I don't want anyone taking a dump just outside my home either!

That bear told Rocko what he thought of her barking😁. I saw Mav's new ride too, pretty sweet. Sorry to hear about your van damage. That jump across the river holding onto Rocko was amazing.💪

Your videos are so entertaining! You are a man of many talents and abilities. The clip of you jumping across that raging river with Rocco was amazing! Thank you for sharing your breathtaking adventures.

Best way to stop your brake noise is to get original GM pads they usually give you brand new anti-rattle clips and pad lube. Use a good wire brush to clean all the rust off the caliper mounting area and lube the sliding pin bolts that mount your caliper mount with silicone gel lube.

Man you are the best dog owner 🌞

I have noticed, from some of the other channels that I follow, that once a channel reaches a certain level of subscribers, that they frequently tend to grow very rapidly in the number of subscribers and views. Probably within the next year (or two) Foresty Forest will probably reach the same level of subscribers and views as Mav's channel. Simon, I watch a lot of different channels, and yours is by far the best and most entertaining channel out there.

I just enjoy listening to all the issues you face as you travel in your home. Rocko has the heart of a lion. Thanks for including us in your life.

Rocko, she's a Dog of the World but she sure loves you. :)

Never think you don't deserve good things! You have a good life, and a sweet canine companion to share it. You surely deserve that.

Rocco is a star. She was the cool girl of the dog run.

Looked like an excellent episode to me. Very cool that Rocko socialized so well with other dogs. She clearly comes from a good home.

Forest, she’s so damn cute…. She just makes me smile.. Love her all you can !!! 🇺🇸🥰❤️💕🙏🏻

When you drive the roads that you do, it's a miracle that you don't have many more problems.

I'm from Australia, Kangaroo meat is usually available from most of our supermarkets and butchers. Although I can say I've never had it in burger form, only steak and sausages.

A friend who was a hand faller in the interior for many years, when asked if bears sh@t in the woods? He responded no from what I've seen they like the middle of the road most.

Thank you for showing me so many beautiful mountain summits. I can’t get out of the house much but your videos really help! Rocco was way too cute while you were making her food and she was sleeping under the covers. ❤️🐾🐾 I think black bears are so beautiful. I’m glad you got to see it I’m sure it’s not your first.

In Australia we don’t see Kangaroo meat much in the city supermarkets, but it’s available through certain butchers. Some people prefer it as a source of protein because it’s much more environmentally friendly than beef. It’s also much leaner, and typically made into roo patties. Very surprised indeed to see it on the shelves in Canada. The food miles 😦.

Congrats to Rocco on summit 16!

Really enjoy following you and Rocco. I remember getting so excited and telling everyone that I had found cool this guy on KZfaq who lives in his van in Alberta, has only "a few" followers, and deserved way more. A vanlifer in freezing weather, so inspiring. I think you were working in a J. O. B. back then. All I remember is a huge empty frozen parking lot. Now, stellar cinematography and adventures I will never go on. Much

Roo is good, but it’s a bit lean for me. Props for going to the lengths with the egg and beetroot though! I left oz 20 years ago, roo was usually available without too much effort but it’s an acquired taste for many.

Loved the spring in your step comment 🤣

Rocco is just my absolute favorite dog right now and Forrest your an awesome guy and an outstanding content creator🙌🏽

Those grill grates have lasted a long time and still look new.

Great shot of you holding Rocco jumping over the river. No sure about the marsupial burgers 🍔. I did pet a Kangaroo at the San Diego Zoo and their fur is like that of a rabbit so soft.

Bahaha I was literally just watching one of your videos from 3 years ago to tide me over till the new ones. Good timing!

"A spring in my step" a good chuckle was had at that one :)

One day in town and « I miss the mountains already », that is so Foresty! Should make TShirt of it

Your 'Ozzie burger' was more Australian than the ones in Australia lol. Love the wild life content too. Bears are fascinating me, at present. Our 'drop bears' i.e. koala would make a more eucalyptus flavoured burger ( just kidding). That goat lit up the background and the bee was adorable. The bear taking a dump got a giggle😄

Hope the high temp silicone works. Maybe just go OEM on the brake pads in the future. Loved the bear taking a 💩 at the end. Always enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work.

That Rocco is so adorable! What a cute little personality! I love watching her!! Talking about Mav’s car? It’s a beaut!

Man I never noticed how much the van just eats bumps right up. Sounded nice and quiet too after the diy shim. Mad props to you

Dryer sheets work under the hood and other areas that could house mice..just put them around and refresh every couple months..

I really enjoy your down to earth and honest videos! The shots you get with your drone are amazing! Safe travels to you and your little buddy!

Kangaroo is considered a pest here, they're often culled. Not a lot of take-up on the dinner table as the meat tends to be very lean/gamey. Burgers or a medium rare/rare tail is your best bet.

That bee closeup is incredible!

Hey buddy shout out from Bend Oregon 🇺🇸🤙

the Mav reference with the dream car haha. my dream car is and always will be a 1994 Acura NSX and an AP2 Honda S2000. i was lucky enough to own an S2K for about 7 years before I had to sell it, I always miss that car.

Grab bag episode featuring Rocko's city adventure, kangaroo burgers, a summit, and some amazing drone footage 😀 Also, van repairs 😞. Keep er moving!

Gone 12 minutes, and miss the mountains! Love you bro!!! Livin' your Dash!!! - Davey.

You deserve a million subs

Always something that needs fixen on these older. vans. Better order some peppermint oil for your engine and underneath. Thanks for sharing.😎🥰❤❤🎶 love Rocco. She's a gem..So are you!🥰

Rocco's probably super stoked to see some other dogs

LOL vegetarian here not excited by kangaroo meat. Glad you got your van repairs sorted for the time being.

Its so wild seeing snow like this in july. its been over 90F here for two weeks so thats lookin pretty good rn

Good old Castlegar. My old stomping grounds. Norn's Creek FSR has some really nice spots to camp, or at least it used to. I used to hunt up there lots. Rocco is such a sweetie and not to take anything away from you but she really is the star of the show. :) She is certainly living the life. Lucky pup !! You answered the age old question with the last shot. "Do bears poop in the woods"?. Yup, lol.

I don't know why exactly but I loved the little cut with the guy busking. Good way to dodge copyrighted music!

Absolute legend ending video with the Bear dropping heat!

Love from Malaysia ❤️💪🤩. Keep it up Foresty Forest and Rocco🐕

You could also try liquid electrical tape they make it and it works well with sealing things like that. I used it on my atv winch connections and they have gotten soaked and still work great.

i love your dog rocco she is so cute i love watching her she is adorable

LOVED this one....Rocco is a ROC STAR!!!

That shot at 8:45 is epic! Without a drone that must have taken quite a while to capture

Morning Foresty!

lol. the Boing noise while jumping the creek. awwww. great vid. 🥰

Kangaroo is readily available in most big grocery stores in Australia, but not as commonly eaten as beef, pork, lamb, or chicken. I do eat it on occasion (I have a couple of steaks in the freezer, and also like to make meat pies with roo.) I do find left over cooked roo steaks and burgers have an increased "gamey" flavour. My local butcher also sells emu, crocodile, water buffalo, and camel.

Glad it wasn't anything major with your rig. Yeah, try as I might to keep my rig nice 💩 happens. Seems I'm constantly working on her. Wish I had my late husband's skills with engines and suspension systems, though as those get spendy. Better yet, wish I still had him, ❤️. Rocko is such a joy to watch. My pup and senior cat make life worth living. Happy travels, Foresty. 💕

Love Rocco…..she seems so content, and so confident….we have an 8 year old male JRT called Fonzi…..short for Alfonso , best companion you will ever have, they are fearless small dogs, nothing with faze them…..👍🇮🇲💪🐶

Man and Dog, unbeatable combo!

That shot with that Fly / Bee was epic ... 👍

Foresty Forest, I’m always looking for your updated videos on your adventures with Rocko! When you think of the law of averages for having mishaps & being able to handle whatever comes along, you do Al right! Thank you for sharing your life with us! God Bless!

Lol the bear at the end! Sorry you have some damage to your van. I relate to the not being able to have nice things. Nice video! Sending love to you and Rocko

“Should have some extra spring in my step” That’s Awesome. I wonder how many people caught that… Foresty Forest Rocks!!

JDM RHD CRX SIR *YES!!!!!!!* that was totally unexpected and awesome to hear! Glad to know you’re also a Honda guy!!! So cool!!

Hi Foresty! Good video

Great video , love your optimism and sense of humour.

Mav got his dream car. You should hook up with him sometime too!! It was cool to see you link up with Camping with Steve!!

13:50 is peak Foresty... delightfully subtle
