4 Days Camping on a River in a Burnout Forest 

“So it’s 10Minutes after 30minutes til 10” 😂😂

My favorite parts are always when Xander cooks and enjoys his coffee + breakfast. You can see the true joy on his face. :) Keep up the great content, love your stuff!!

Ahh right on time as usual, here to save me from my insomnia

13:04 “So it’s ten minutes after 30 minutes till ten”🤣🤣🤣

First time commenting on you video. It's so relaxing. I was watching only Joe Robinet in terms of bushcraft but when I discovered yours, I now prefer your vids (both joe and you are awesome) Thanks on sharing your trip with us. ❤️🌿🌲🍃

13:04 “So it’s 10 minutes after 30 minutes to 10…” fried my brain cells

Great video man! That was a trip to remember for sure. Can't wait until the next one with you boys! I'm amped.

Xander, I feel like you could have a show on OLN, seriously buddy. Your content is always very interesting, never dull. And your drone footage is fantastic!

I was missing some xander adventure and here we are great to see you out with jon again and brad, always enjoyable. Run into any animals while out there? Look forward to seeing the trip from jon's perspective.

Oh, the river has passed through the place safely. Thanks for inviting me to a nice place, my friend...

We did a lot of white water RAFTING in Alaska. Saw a lot of canoe bones. You guys handled it just as we did 40 years ago. Of course rafting is way different and harder to steer. It’s nice to see you on an adventure with buddies! So much fun. Loved how you guys stayed together, analyzed the rapids, kept safety first. It brings back a lot of fond memories and good times.

Your videos always look so effortless, yet I understand all the work, during and post, that goes into creating them. Really grateful for the boost to my mental health watching your adventures gives me. Thank you!

We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again. This is the content pushing the boundaries of therapy. Amazing wholesome adventure. Please never stop.

NO FREE RIDES ... i died 🤣great video, really enjoyed this one. You guys must of had a blast. Thanks for sharing this one

My friend, as a fellow canadian from Quebec, I must say you have reingnited my passion for camping. I have planned multiple weekends in the wilderness to disconnect from everything and it's all thanks to you! Take care Xander

Yay, finally one of my favorite channels uploaded new video today. Thank you for always making a great content. Your video always accompany me before i go to sleep. I love you, Xander. Stay safe & healthy. 🤍

Another great video I love burned out forests the green growth amongst the dead also great sorce of firewood everywhere. Love those drone shots really sets mood and shows terrain.

Best Burnout you ever had I guess ;) Looks like another great adventure Xander. Always cool to have a crew that is ready for a bro trip. Good and fun times outdoors are the best. And best cheat what John did in the beginning, just let the river take you downstream 🤣 Stay safe out there. Cheers, M.

4 days camping and boating was amazing but also very dangerous. Good luck to all of you

Jon seems like such a lovely guy - your adventures with him are awesome!

Thumbs up all around 👍👍👍🇺🇲🦅❤️

Great trip Xander. Always nice to see you with Jon. I've been hoping you guys do another 12-14 day canoe trip. This definitely wets the apatite.

Best time of the week bro

What a ripper! Looks so cool riding the rapids!

That is pure content! This guy really puts a lot off effort and dedication to us! A lot of cameras, perfect shots of drones, music, food, adrenaline, I can guess how much time editing these videos. Give a loud applause for Xander. Best regards! 👏👋🇱🇹👍

We watched it on our big screen, as always. Thank you for bringing us along.

I could listen to hours of your drone shot music :) What a great trip, thanks for bringing us along.

I love this stuff. I am glad you continue to paddle whitewater and share it. You're an inspiration. I am no where near your level, but because of you, I am trying harder to improve my videos. Thanks Xander.

I need to stop coming on youtube when I am supposed to be doing work or homework. C'est la vie! It always excites me to see you, Jon and Brad on a trip together. "Rocks and Canoe are bad!" Omg that comment killed me, you guys are hysterical. I can't wait to see Jon and Brad's takes on this trip.

Totally awesome, exciting. So glad to ha e tagged along with you guys!!

Great trip, Xander! Love the camaraderie between you three. And Brad is a beast in the whitewater.

Just the sounds of water make it special 😎♥️

Very cool Xander

I could watch this all day dude!

Zander wow this was exciting it felt like i was on the water fighting the rapids And I'm glad to see you eating well And your friends are ausm Having some one to go with on trips great 👍💯 video Fireman 🔥🔥🔥

Dude, big fan. Watched you and John for a while now. Really helped me emotionally and mentally get through the lockdown. I work at a hospital in supply chain. So it’s been a rough few years. I get a lot of hope and inspiration from watching you and John. So I feel the need to say thank you. Big fan of the 3 Amigos on this video! I would love to see the 3 of you do more whitewater trips. So cool man. I love the 2 really epic shots of all three of you guys paddling alongside. It was a fun shot and looked fun. Cheers Xander, I hope you keep exploring and sharing with us all. I can’t get enough. Deano

"It's 10 minutes after 30 minutes until 10..." This gave me a chuckle

Love this trio, the collabs are so much fun. Looked like a great trip.

wonderful, simply wonderful and so relaxing to watch and listen to those fly overs. Thanks 🙏

Amazing content Xander! Very jealous of you three guys. Looks like an incredible, fun journey. Keep the vids coming. I look forward to every one

As a person who used to live in the PNW and now resides in Arizona, watching your video gives me a calm and reminisce about the great times I had in the PNW. Might move back one day in the future and go back to my root of exploring the forest/environment.

i cant explain it but the song/music you use in those drone shots just sort of puts me in my place. im really here im really in this world. i have so many memories and regrets and it just all flashes when that music comes on. its bitter sweet

I always know it’s going to be a great drone shot when that dreamy music starts up...

What an beautiful, fun and exciting video:) Absolutely loved it! Ty for sharing!!

This has gotta be my new favorite Xander-ism "...its 10 min after 30min til 10..." 😆 I gotta sneak that into daily conversations.

Im impressed with the fact that you guys are very cautious and watch the river and portage when you feel its beyond your capabilities or too dangerous . Nature is unforgiving, one wrong move and its over. Be smart and come home safe so that we get to enjoy your content for years to come!!!!

That music is great! So beautiful with the drone footage. Perfect pairing.

Challenging trip with good friends. Xander being the character among them. Lol. Makes it interesting !

I do enjoy the drone footage inserts with the surreal music tracks playing over top. It gives us a great idea of space and how small we are compared to that area of land.

The triple high five at the end is so dorky, i love it, great video again thank you.

Been watching you about 2 months ago and loved it!. I hope you guys have a great day.

Love that you guys have a safeword and that you're aware of your limitations! So important if you're gonna have a good and safe trip.

Xander, my dear bro...i really love watching your videos bcoz i feel serenity and peace , eventhough im not present with you...as if i travel with you, camping ni beautiful Canada !!! Your avid fan and subscriber here from the SILANG town, CAVITE, PHILIPPINES.

What a show! Love watching these. My favorite outdoor channel now. Keep up the great adventuring!

Great adventure!!! Nice to see you all together playing in the water!!!😃❤👍

Damn Xan-man get some videos in the queue before you up and leave on a 2 week trip! Excited for the new videos

I’m going through a rough time right now and this video gave me the right amount of distraction I needed, great vid as always

The best channel on RU-vid to relax with some good food and a beer 🍺 fantastic trip guys thanks for making such a great video 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

this is one of those cross-over episodes that all the fans dream for.

"So its 10 minutes after 30 minutes until 10 and we are back on the water"....LOLLL WHO TELLS TIME LIKE THIS?!! I was laughing my ass off when you said that!! Thank you for inspiring me to go camping again my friend!!

Brings tears to my eyes when I see all those trees ..but its all gonna be green again..your lucky to be I that kind of environment and have those moments..Al we have in the Netherlands is flat land ..and no wild camping...

Great video man. I myself packed up the truck last Friday and drove from Ohio to St George, Utah for some hiking. I'm not camping because I'm a rank amateur but I'm still getting some amazing photos. Thanks for being an inspiration.

Thank you Xander for your great videos! I often watch them just before going to bed because they have a calming effect on me. I really enjoy the peacefulness of the scenery, the fireplace and cooking or you breaking logs apart :D Makes me reminisce about my own experiences in scandinavia and the incredible freedom I felt staying in the wilderness. Many thanks from Germany 🥨

Always a good day when Xander uploads😎😎

Always a good day when xander uploads

Brother you nailed that drone shot at around 7:35. Thanks for another gem.

Thank you for sharing the trip with us all...like being there with our mates. Appreciate the work that goes into it all ...

As a Whitewater kayaker, ya love to see it! Enjoyed every bit of it. Given the rapid size, speed isn't going to help you as much as being point strait into the rapids. Focus on just keeping the boat pointed downstream as your plan for success.

That as an awesome river- rapids trip! So glad you took good care of John, he just got engaged. Wouldn’t want anything to happen to him before the wedding.

Absolutely loved the video, and the music just makes it 1000 times better!

Looks like an awesome trip! Rapids looked pretty knarly at some points! 🙌🏼🛶

0:03 isn't it the most adorable smile ever?!? ;) looking forward to watch your video

What a fantastic adventure Mr.Budnick. I have never heard of that river before and now it will be on my list of rivers to paddle. I love how you were able to take footage of you actually doing the rapids and it felt like I was there with you. Great job and I am very impressed if that means anything. All the best Xander and always remember to follow your nose! 🍁🦫

Love your videos! I'm always more hungry after watching them though. Also, I love the collaborations you do with John! You two make a great combo.

LOVE watching you cook awesome meals on the trail.

This is extreme camping. Very nice.😊👍

Beautiful country! Thanks for sharing. The Arial shot at 31:11 is really cool with all of you talking to each other on the water.

Killer trip and the way you showed it. Its great when you and Jon do trips together and we get to see both your versions and Brad is badass. Fun video to watch. Keep em coming Xander and stay safe

This was awesome Xander! I saw jons also. What a trip this was! Loved the Kato from pink panther bit with the knife! Classic! Good stuff man! Take care. Paul

Just amazing, Xander!! Thank you for risking life and limbs bringing us such thrilling episodes. And, Jon, you reminded me of my experience from many, many years ago, when I took my first class of canoeing in the NAIT pool.... then our instructors hauled us out to the Wild Hay river, not too far from Jasper... I thought they were C5 rapids, for corn's sake... most likely only C1. Scared the heck outta me. Yup, a whole bunch of our canoes ended up flipping. But such fun.

As always allowing us to enjoy nature and camping thru the screen, thanks Xander you're a legend bro 💪🏽👑

This one is another level of enjoyment. Canoeing is fun with friends. I also like the way xander cooking his food. Keep it up. Always watching...from philippines❤️❤️❤️

What a great journey! Those rapids were wild! Thanks again for bringing us along. You caught me off guard with the tobasco sauce instead of maple syrup this time. Lol. Well done, another fantastic video.

Another exciting video. Thanks to share your adventures with us.

Johns first wipeout and he didn’t loose anything!! Well done guy’s!

really enjoyed this one Xander, now I'm craving bacon😮

Awesome Xander 👍 my favourite video yet mate 😊 really exciting and great banter with the lads. Thanks for sharing. Paul 🇬🇧

LOVE the music and aerial shots

Always happy a new Xander video is up!

What a rush!! Perfect weather and great company 👌 I would love to try more whitewater at some point, can't wait to see it from Brad and Jon's perspective... Keep up the excellent content my friend!! See you on your next adventure. 🍻

What a wild ride! So great to see the 3 of you out there and Jon getting his hands dirty in the moving water more. You guys are really inspirational to just appreciate the nature we have while it's still here.

I find your cinematic clips so therapeutic I could watch them all day, can’t wait for the next video!

Beautiful job filming and paddling! Your food looked really good (I'm hungry now). I am envious! 36:00 - unbelievably neat campsite. Looks like so much fun. Happy trails!

Love these videos with you and these other chill dudes enjoying life to the fullest. Wishing you peace and great adventures always bud!

Amazing video , you are real warrior . The landscapes are magic. Keep going

OMG!! THANK YOU!! And more of this, please. What a treat, I saw it in my feed this morning and couldn't wait to get home and check it out. Awesome.

Oh and thanks for making this a longer video I look forward to seeing more of those .

Wow, that was super awesome! Nothing better than a few days outdoors with some good friends. I am super green with envy my friend!! I need to get my kayak out and do some overnight trips on the water. Thanks for sharing, as as usual, very nicely done!!

Thanx again Xander for another worthwhile video.

Great video! Fun to watch. Glad to see that patches saved you from pinning a rock. Phew, that was a close one. Nice to see the boys out having fun on the white water.
