Camping at a TINY CABIN made of Driftwood on Vancouver Island | Ep. 3 

New sub sent from Steve Wallis,I've been watching him since he had 1k too. I look forward to seeing your first Million too!!

Hey guys, here from Steve Wallis' recent video camping out in the cabin. When I was on Couchsurfing a long time ago, I remember reading about a cabin somewhere up-island that had its own profile on the website, and it was first come, first serve. I don't know if this is the one, or that was a different one. All I know is it was way North Island. Beautiful scenery, though! The furthest up I've been is Zeballos for commercial fishing. It's a whole other world up there. The scenery and wildlife is unreal. Thanks for the footage!

Just watched Steve’s adventure here and had to see yours too. Someone in his comments made mention that they helped build that place and was happy to share some history. Don’t know if he read the comment, but that would be a cool story to hear.

WOW ! I know 31 is coming around now but Happy 30th. I celebrated 50 in July 2023. We drove to Yosemite and hiked Half Dome. Highlight of my life, it was just magical. This place looks magical too. Glad you got such a special spot for your special day.

Also a new sub from camping with Steve so happy to find ur content

Thank you for sharing this place with Steve!! Just subbed to your channel and Love it! Awesome stuff!

Hey people, from Steve Wallis. Hope you guys reach 100k then 1million soon 😊

Steve sent me!! Great channel! Im a BC girl, so this is very exciting ❤

Steve Wallis sent me here! I had to come here as soon as Steve mentioned your channel, but also because of the channel name itself! 🤣 Just subbed.... Cheers!

Another gem of a cinematic showcase of the Island. Hope Diesel is doing better now....cheers!

Enjoyed the drone beach and coastline footage.

On my initial Cape Scott trek, after a night on Nils Bight, in the sand surrounding the tent, several wolf prints were witnessed. It was evident that a pack had passed in the night and taken mild interest in my site as the majority of the evidenced paw traffic was concentrated around my tent.

I've done Cape Scott 5X; can't wait for the 6th. The safari analogy made me chuckle.

Also here from Steve. I'll check out your content, looks great so far!

Fantastic trip you guys!!!! So glad Diesel is better - poor dude:( But he knew it was a special day for his mom so he didn't want to hijack the day ;-) ... oh and Happy belated Birthday Alannah!!!! 🎂🥳

The harder a place is to get to the more beautiful it is

Hi you guys, I'm not much of a commenter but I really like your vids. I got onto you from Steve Wallis a few weeks ago. I just moved back to Canada after living in Australia for the last 33 years, but I grew up on the Island and spent countless nights camping all over it tip to tail and left to right. Really loving the nostalgia. Going through the back catalogue . Best of luck to you 3. Knox.

Hitchhike Mike’s cabin just outside of Tofino right on Long Beach was amazing. I stayed there a couple nights back in 2001 Sadly it was torn down Anyone ever hear of Hitchhike Mike’s?

Lol "what is dutch oven" had me giggling like a 12 yr old.

I love that island! Hope to go vivid that cabin one day

Lots of people deflate their tires for the rough roads. When we were in Holberg this summer, you could see the locals running around on tires that looked half flat. Much smoother ride. Also helps to have off-road tires like TA-K02s Orr similar.

Wow, your road trip across Vancouver Island looks like an incredible adventure! I love how you discovered these hidden gems 🚐🌊🏞

Hand crank radio would be a nice touch in the sea shack … the shack reminds me of the sea shack from the movie - After the Storm starring Benjamin Bratt and Armand Asante.

Amazing videos! I hope to see more in the future! Chase your dreams!

very nice photography/cinematography/editing. thanks for sharing and keep it up!

Thank you so much for what you do I really enjoy bless you both stu from England x

Well you definitely made it to over 1000 subscribers before the end of the year!

The views just keep getting better. That little cabin looks amazing and it looks like you could send days just beach combing alone. The bumpy roads got me thinking /wondering about Mexico and Central America. Any thoughts about heading down that way some day?

Worked in Hoberg in 1976 memories.

I read that the Hecht Beach cabin burned down. Not sure if this is same one, but it looked like it.

So sad….I was there Friday (June 9/23) and couldn’t find the cabin. Back roads my book has it on the wrong spot. It is one little day over. I climbed ropes and everything else and when I got back to the main beach, there was an older gentleman sitting in a lawn chair and he said oh, you just have to go one day further… Then he proceeded to tell me about the wolf 30 feet away from the trail head. That was after I mentioned to him that a Bear crossed my path 50 feet in front of me at San Josef on the main trail 😮 What I learned from my trip to the northern part of the island was that I never want to go there alone again Hahahahha. Seeing a Bear, while you are all by yourself, and being told, there is a wolf 30 feet from the trail head tends to scare one a little😂

My girlfriend and I love the videos! We’re planning a van trip up the east coast of the island and down the west. I was born and raised on the island and been here for 28 years never been past port alberni 😅 also curious if you to are from the island originally? Love the videos!!!

We broke my Mum in Laws car by going up there years back. it was worth it. RIP Fudge. Great channel guys, what a lovely way to spend a birthday . (Happy very belated Alannah, lol)

what'up-amigo. you made outstanding editing~talk to you soon- )

What beach/ cove is that on? I've sea kayaked around the entire island twice. Don't think I've seen that cabin...unless Laurie Cove maybe?

I get the feeling that they may not have slept in the cabin? I just think that the lack of video proves it. Either way, it doesn't matter, I'm just not a fan of fibs or lies

In that same beach location where the cabin is, there is an abandoned campground, with a trail leading up to the old parking lot. It's just a small walk from one beach to the other. My family and I stayed there last summer and it is by far my favourite place on earth. The beaches are beautiful, the river was soothing and I can't wait to go back! It is quite a hike to get to it though, but it's so worth it. There are beautiful spots to set up camp and the cabin is just on the other beach, a short walk away. You do have to be carful for bears and wildlife, we hung our food packs up in the tree every night! I can't wait to go back to this beautiful place!

Those pies are so over priced its insane, Screw those pies
