Rocko and myself hit a 12er in Idaho, then whip together some BLT Pizza. Happy 2023 everyone! / forestyforest Merchandise: foresty-forests-store.creator... Summit Map: drive.google.com/open?id=12GF... / strava / forestyforest
@Che Robinson She has a very good customized jacket by Forest. Please check out the previous video. And the booties are probably very hard to keep on her tiny, speeding feet. And Rocko also lets Forest know when she wants to be carried in his jacket. They have an amazing bond and Forest is ALWAYS concerned with Rocko's best interest. 🐾💕
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
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!
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!
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!
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!
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 …🎉🎉🎉
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
Definitely some of your most epic drone footage. Oh and I think your music selection was one of your best as well. And looking forward to your travels in 2023.
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. 🎉
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!:)
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!
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
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 🇨🇦
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
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.
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 😎
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!
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 ❤️ 🙏❤️🙏
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.
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. 🐕🏔❤🔥🎆🐐
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!
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!!
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
All the best to you and Rocco in 2023. Cheers from the east coast of Canada. Oh and just a side note: Foghorn Brewery co-owner and head brewer won BREWER OF THE YEAR 2022 from the Canadian Brewers Choice Awards.
