Hey do you understand why the border is gonna stay closed ? You have a country on the earth that there is a whole subsection of your population who believes the virus is a hoax and refuses to wear a mask because they have "rights" until the USA actually does something and gets the whole country on the same page no countries are gonna allow your citizens entry without some type of extreme quarantine it's too risky to the safety of countries that actually took it seriously
Need to pour the gravy on top of the cheese curds to melt it brother! Lol. Noon move eating food chunks of cheese when u went the extra mile by making fries 🍟homemade
I'm an army veteran and I have severe PTSD and when I started watching your videos my anxiety attacks have gone from about once a day to about once every two or three days and now once a week.I'm not sure what it is about watching your videos but they call me and therefore I appreciate it and I consider you a true friend! Thanks pal. I really hope we can meet someday and do some camping together I think it'd be awesome.
Hey Daniel, Dan here from Canada, I’m so glad to here you are feeling better. Stay strong brother. I love watching his video’s also. I also have PTSD from a traumatic incident. His videos take me away for a bit. Super cool. Once again stay strong and thanks for your service.
My daughter has Crohn's and currently has Covid. She has a fever and is resting, but my anxiety is so high. Watching these videos is calming me down in between taking care of her.
You are by far the most realistic car campers I ever known. Every videos you experienced or stated something that I think might happened as a campers. Being questioned and chased away by cops, aware of possible dangers (gunshots, bad neighbourhood etc.), non perfect equipments. Most youtubers they made videos like they are in heaven and acted like nothing can go wrong.
My husband and I live in the fishing goldmine of Ontario Canada, we live just 2 mins from Wollaston Lake!! When and If Canada opens its borders before the winter, you’re welcome to camp in our driveway :)
omg, i love trailer park boys! Your bubbles impression was spot on! Its always been my dream to go travel in a camper/bus/van/truck and check out gorgeous areas!
I really appreciate how you don't use any over-hyped music in your videos. There is something calming about watching your gorgeous drone shots with just the sound of your car.
I love the feel of this trip. Mav, only you could pull off a scene like 28:08 that sets such a calm mood... just peaceful and asleep, while a bird circles and calls from high above... The first alarm of the morning, signalling to us that the sun is coming up and it's time to crawl out of the sack and make coffee. Thanks for that feeling, I'm going back now to watch it again.
Im a Canadian who now lives in the USA. Love that you watch Trailer Park Boys and can do better impressions than myself. Love all your vids but giving Canada respect was pretty cool
I appreciate that you show respect for the reservation. If you found someone to ask, I am sure there would have been no problem with you sleeping over night. You're good about packing out what you pack in anyway. I am glad that you didn't have this cavalier attitude about the situation. If I were ever to be in the same situation, I would have done the same.
I thought the hurricane season was over , I’m a junior Pre-Med Psych major at Texas A&M. One semester missed won’t affect the 8+ years of school I have left.😂 Gotta live a bit before I get too old or busy to do anything lol.
Thank you, Mav. ❤ I'm watching this several months later and I really appreciate all the nice comments you made about Canada. Thank you for being so genuine and kind.
I am a very proud Minnesotan...living in the rural east central part of the state.. On the front of my shed I display the US flag and the Canadian flag....honoring our friends to the north.
I swear I felt like I was watching the beginning of a horror movie when you were walking through those woods into that abandoned cabin. Awesome videos Mav.
You alone inspired me to get out and start fishing again! Haven’t since I was a kid and it’s been the best thing ever! I am so grateful for your inspiration thank you Mav!!!
watching 3 yrs later july 19 2024 in ontario canada enjoyed the episode thanks for upload wish i had seen it sooner 52yr old man enjoy watching the fishing and camping good stuff
I'm 42 years old and watching your channel makes me want to be out more in the outdoors. Just got home last week after being away in New Hampshire and Maine. Loved it can't wait to get out again have a good day and stay safe Jimmy from Massachusetts
I just found your channel a couple days ago - I subscribed and have been binging ever since. Awesome videos Mav, keeps me entertained while staying home. I love camping and fishing.
You're right it was hard for our tourism. I'm right in the middle of where most of you come to fish. Were recuperating some now though. Slow but steady 💜
HAHAHAHA the trailer park boys reference was hilarious. I knew exactly what episode when you brought the show up, just by the passing of the green trees in the window lol
When I watch your videos, it makes the Day much better. Idk what it is with you but watching these puts away anxieties. Shout out from Albuquerque NM. 💯✌🏾
Dude the delicious “poutine” is not what all Canadian eat , it’s what the French Canadians invented . Keep up your amazing channel we love it up here in Canada 👍🏼🤟. Did you know there is a desert in British Columbia .
We were in Grand Portage in August 2020. There is a really cool/difficult hike at the State Park/rest area right by the border. One trail (very easy) takes you to this amazing waterfall and then another trail (pretty difficult, but amazing views) that veers to the left takes you to a river where the Canadian border was about 10 feet away (just a “jump” over the rushing water). Pretty cool.
canadian here and im actually liking this summer a lot better since no tourism lol , a lot of the local places ive talked to say they are doing just fine or even better then before for half the part just because of local support !!
Your videos make me want to face my fears head on for some reason.. You have more strength then most. To live inside of your truck and do what you do takes a certain someone. You are an interesting dude and your channel is a great help too the world. Keep it up man. Almost 100k views Yeee! Be safe bro
I like watching your trips, I used to belong to 1000 trails and camp in California and Nevada when my daughter was little. I am bored now so this is nice seeing different areas. Bye, bye.
Recommend you get a road atlas book for your state and region. Never have to use google maps when you have no cell service and restricted land like reservations is usually well marked on the map.
Cool videos thanks. Just got a topper for my truck. Setting it up for trip to the states to see my great grandkids. I agree it's sad the border closed for so long. I love Lake of woods and Northern Minnesota.
Dude I love Sven and Ole's! Grand Marais is one of my favorite places in the world. You're channel is criminally underrated. Keep doing what you're doing.
That thing you read on the old bridge is a survey control point that surveyors use to verify elevation and is filed on with public records. Thats gold to a surveyor lol
I am Canadian. Poutine is a treat food. We rarely eat it I haven't had good poutine since i left Newfoundland 5 yrs ago. Last poutine i had: It was Fries, gravy, cheese, chicken, and peas. So delicious. I haven't had poutine in Alberta yet. Good video as always.
bless your heart, you used real cheese curd! only the east coast says aboot and a few northern states, also poutine rocks. Thank you for being respectful to the indigenous community.
Our border is opening in the middle of August Maverick and you are welcome to come and camp and do some fishing up here anytime.Greetings from Ottawa,Canada.
I've been to that spot on the Pigeon River. It's pretty interesting, and I still wonder how long that bridge has been out. I never noticed the old stripped cabin, though. It really did look like something out of The Blair Witch Project. Did you notice the "security system" they had in place? It might not still be there, but on one of the trees in the middle of the lot/turnaround, there was a game camera in a metal box. lol! I was awed by the technology. Glad you finally stopped by Sven and Ole's. NOW you're a true Minnesotan! ;-)
The bridge was moved in 1962. The bridge spot in this video was built illegally without gov't approval by either country by the Rotary Clubs on both sides.
Where I ATV and snowmobile there are many parts of the border with just rock boundary markers. Many farms also are half in NH half in Canada. Pretty cool
I've been watching for a while, I'm lucky enough to owne a 2003 TJ and a roof tent being in the UK and so many restrictions for wild camping. I've ditched the campsight and started going wild. Spent the night on a beach last night, hidden away and it was awesome 👌
The found-footage type feeling of your videos always has me thinking things are about to turn into a horror film but this one really took it to the next level.
I had Sven & Ole's Pizza when I was up in Grand Marais a year ago and that is some of thee best Minnesota pizza I have ever had and I loved every bite of it.
Literally the worst bubbles impression I've ever heard.. stop bein a kiss ass bc we all know it was awful, and that's ok. Still a good vid regardless but cmmooonnnn
You seem to do everything by the book and you are very respectful, as a Canadian with the same values, we welcome U.S. citizens with your moral value anytime and we hope you will come and visit again when the borders open up!!
I love hearing references about trailer park boys because they filmed that less than 2 hours from my house, and I live in the same house bubbles grew up in as a young kid, my grandmother bought it from his parents in the 80’s
Next time you make it... Boil the potatoes until it's fork soft... then fry it on medium heat.. .take them out and let it rest... then just before you want to eat, fry them up on higher heat... til golden brown, add the curds then smother with the gravy, preferably beef gravy...
This was a really interesting watch. It's sad the US failed on COVID so bad no other countries want us, but it is what it is. Hopefully that changes soon.
No the sad part is he is the type of person that wants to come across the border the second it opens up. He doesn't care about covid or spreading it. Such a shame.
@@shoesmostwanted He is though, you think he won't have any contact with anyone? He will have to get gas, food, etc... These things put you in direct contact with people. Do you think hes going to isolate for 14 days? Doesn't sound like he will. Be a fan boy all you want but hes advocating for something that shouldn't even be a priority at this time.
Great video!! Sending positive vibes from Wellington, New Zealand. I'd love to see some videos in Vermont or up around that area this time of year! Stay safe
you know what you need to invest in? The new ford lightning. Has a 220 outlet and a bunch of 110 outlets in the bed of the truck which would make your life so much easier
