On my first trip this season I visit the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Along with lots of snow and some spectacular scenery, I also discover a strange little bit of local history.

Waking up to a new video from Slim is a wonderful way to start a day!

@PlanetEarth3141 Год назад

That's a fact.

@pdaily5331 Год назад

That ending was killer! Beautiful photography thank you!

@anjichurch4406 Год назад

I live in New Hampshire not too far from where you evidently stayed. I just had to speak up here and make it clear that this snow storm that just happened this past week is the worst we’ve seen this year and is some thing that we see usually every week of a winter. We’ve had an extremely mild and precipitation free to light Year so far this particular storm that you’re sharing here took down wires where I live and we went 3 1/2 days without power and were melting snow for toilet flushing and bathing. It’s just part of living here because like I said some years we get a foot of snow, and, couple days later see another 6 inches in a few days later another 8 inches it just happens that way. Glad to see you local and have to say it’s nice to see the beauty of the trees even on RU-vid. I always say we live in a state where people come to vacation because it’s such a beautiful place.

Up the Falling Waters Trail is one of the hardest hikes I have ever done . Well worth the hike up though .

@lipsticklodge7526 Год назад

Yes I've been to NH a few times and it is gorgeous there!

@faithrada Год назад

@@lipsticklodge7526 Sssshhhh 🤫 yes it is. 😉 🌲🌳🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🌲🌲🦃🫎🦋🌲🍁 ❄️

@sandrakramer1520 Год назад

That’s exactly what I say about living in a state where people come to vacation: FLORIDA!!! 🏖 🏝🍹 South Florida (Miami) to be precise. I’m aghast watching Slim going for a walk in all that snow.

@vickenator Год назад

@@sandrakramer1520 There's nothing like crunching your way through fresh powder. It's serene, meditative, and breathtaking!

@awanderingdream2093 Год назад

Dude! After getting my critters out and fed, brewed a cup of tea and sat down and boom, there you were! Best way to start my Saturday! The winter scenery montage was pure beauty and the music chosen, perfection! The ending was STELLAR! I am still chuckling! Well done! Well done! Just love your videos! Sending healing energy to your finger! ✌🏻

@Tom-In-Ga Год назад

Snow and ice can be inconvenient but, wow, it sure is beautiful. Great ending, Slim!

@fionamichaelpaterson4411 Год назад

Slim, greetings from the UK. Many years ago I helped rescue a work colleague who got stuck to a pit toilet seat in Norway. We were inside the arctic circle in February. He went into the can, lowered his trousers etc. and sat down on the throne for the performance. Only problem was he had been exercising and he was a tad sweaty. He instantly froze to the cold seat. He had been in there for a while and fortunately somebody else needed the loo. He came and found us in the bar to both tell us and get help. We raced to his aid and after a few minutes of uncontrollable laughter we agreed that the best course of action was hot water. So, with a bucket of hot water we managed to defrost his backside from the Karzy seat. He was OK but he was not keen on sitting down for the next week or so. The flight home on the red mesh seats of a Norwegian C130 must have been rather uncomfortable.

@ronaldcumpsty5605 Год назад

That's a nice looking heater and set up you have done, makes me feel warm, just looking at it. Today was a nice surprise to wake up to another Slim video. Thanks for taking us along. Great to see a young Slim. Fantastic ending, really gave me a chuckle

@hiracing Год назад

Agree with you about the pricing Slim. Our barebones state parks (Colorado) start at $28/night. Electric hookups start at $36/night. Note that fee does not include park entry - that's extra. New Hampshire is beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us.

@derick-smith Год назад

I hope you had a blast editing that last scene because I loved every second of it. Great video as always Slim, safe travels!

@sgardner6135 Год назад

Love the ending, made me smile. Your snowy campground looked so peaceful and serene!

@bearlycamping Год назад

Ah yes these are the Slim version videos I miss! Glad though you got your propane heater and trailer prepped for such a beautiful trip 👌

@rickrentz6602 Год назад

11am, Minnesnowta. Thanks Slim for the motivation to get out and winter camp. The scenery is spectacular. And you brought a gift of laughter to my morning with ET! I really appreciate your time and effort with these videos. Peace be with you Slim

@williamwilliam728 Год назад

Okay Slim, you have entered into a new era of videography and musical adaptation. I feel it is time to rename yourself Slick Potato Head, as you have become slick at these productions. Thank you for giving an ex-pat, living in the Philippines a beautiful taste of winter.

@davidneilson3508 Год назад

Fantastic job on the editing Slim 🌴👍👍😎🌴

@billcottle1317 Год назад

Love, love, love this video! Slim, it’s good to see you back in the wilderness, taking and creating beautiful images from nature‘s gifts to us. And I love the surprise ending - well done Slim❤

Good morning from PEI, Slim! Glad you got a good night's sleep. Always fun to see what you're up to. Stay safe and enjoy your time away.

@jefflunt9615 Год назад

Best one yet, Slim. Great job.

@papajon62 Год назад

Seeing the snow coming down reminds me of a joke we would recite growing up in Michigan: What do you call a snow storm that dumps 2 feet of snow? A good start…. ;)

@roquedemelo9832 Год назад

Your videos are getting better and better. The end was so funny. Good luck Slim.

@patshankle3281 Год назад

WOW Slim loved the snow and little river but the ending was magnificent. Love seeing ur new videos. Keep trekking around and showing us places through your eyes. So u have been doing this a very long time. WTG!!! 💜

@Curt100 Год назад

Well done Slim. Thanks for your hard work and attention to detail!

@pmmurf101 Год назад

Great scenery, and I always get a kick out of some of the surprises you put in! Especially the story of Betty and Barney Hill, the movie of which I’ve seen at least couple of times. I feel it really happened. Great job at the end!

@michaelspiak3998 Год назад

Love the ending of the video. Great job Slim.

@marshaloneagle4646 Год назад

Lovely video, such bliss 'hiking' alongside you. Then tears of laughter at the ending. Bravo sir.

@froggie6608 Год назад

@lindaz2284 Год назад

What beautiful scenery. Thanks for braving the elements and sharing.

@danajensen2935 Год назад

Gorgeous winter scenery! The trees at around minute 16 are absolutely spectacular. Thank you for bringing this serenity to me today.

@theresevh Год назад

Another fabulous video! Yay! It always makes my day when you post a new one. Great guitar soundtrack, and nice ambient recording, Slim! Your new heater seems to be quite adequate. Cheers, Slim, and thank you. Ps great cliffhanger ending lol - nice video work😁

How beautiful. And that stove.. perfect.

@fredsieber2676 Год назад

Snow all around Slim and more coming down: "Its a little cool but not bad." Love it! Thanks for the great video!

@normamccafferty3053 Год назад

That clear water in that river! Great work capturing the beauty of the setting, and also offering a glimpse into the town nearby.

@o.smallwood4268 Год назад

Amazing how you camp in weather like that; just shows it can be done! The ending to your video was priceless....also shows what camera trickery that is out there. Thanks for sharing and safe travels friend.

@rndmparker561 Год назад

That was really great at the end, I super enjoyed that. But I love every second of your videos for the beauty of the nature that you share and your camping experiences.

@MakinEndsMeet69 Год назад

Yeah Slim don't feel like the Lone Ranger because you're not alone I have the same problem with my fingers All the carpentry I've done in my life And then getting them frostbite did them in. I try to make do the best I can, There are headed gloves out there that work off of a small battery That work very well But I try to do it as naturally as possible When I'm outside in the cold. So happy that that heater worked for you It should have for what it cost, but when it comes to your own personal safety and comfort It's worth what you pay. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome video Slim, I will be waiting on the next one that's for sure

@marknesselhaus4376 Год назад

Hello Slim. I have never been in the Whites in the winter, only summer. Looks so peaceful for you. I did get a bit of a chuckle with your ending 😀

@rhondalyn100 Год назад

What a FUN ending! I always love your "extra special" affects, Slim! Appreciate the campground review, with cost, too. I totally agree with you...beautiful winter park but the fee is too high. Loved this one, Slim! Thanks! 🙂

@funzeevanzee Год назад

Beautiful area. I enjoyed your video, especially your humor at the end. And, it's pretty cool that you saw that place so long ago.

@justlookin3 Год назад

Thanks for sharing your journey and the blast from the past photo with longish hair and that little tent for hitchhiking. How cool. I realized as I watched your video that even if I were there you wouldn’t want me around… so the video is you taking me along and that’s as good as it will ever get! Thanks for taking me along!

@richardthomas1743 Год назад

Beautiful video Slim. I am really happy that your heater is working so well for you. Safe travels and thank you for taking us along! I am less than an hour away from where you was , it was a sad day when the Old Man of the Mountain crumbled. It happened on a foggy night, people were shocked the next day when the fog cleared and saw the old man was gone. That was a funny skit with you being taken away by Aliens and what was left of the Old Man of the Mountains said "Good Luck Slim" LOL.. 👍

@johnhuff393 Год назад

Good morning from Godley Texas, thanks for taking us along with you. Love the story telling technique. Keep the snow on the East Coast. Headed to Fort Parker State Park TX tomorrow. Stay safe and happy travels 😎

@kaykaykayak9368 Год назад

I love winter and fresh falling snow ❄️ That was a huge birch tree ! Beautiful photograph, darn plastic ladder! And killer ending , loved it!

@charliemac2131 Год назад

Fantastic vlog Slim !!! You experienced beautiful creations there !!!

@fattyhamster Год назад

This has got to be one of my favourite Slim Potatohead videos! 👽😊

@ChrisRI1000 Год назад

Wow! 15 minutes away from my house! Hancock is one of the very few open in winter. The stream behind you is Otter Creek if I recall and quite refreshing in the summer. Last summer they had to close Hancock because there was a bear constantly showing up. If you go to the other side of the Kancamagus there's a really nice CG called Jigger Johnson and the Swift River runs past it. Well worth the stay too.

@imsjs78 Год назад

I hope your insulation and new heater works great on this trip. Now watching time.

@fatmonet Год назад

16:00 I really love how you put this video together but especially at this point duringyour walk. You really capture nature so well because you look at things that I do, like the bark of a tree, the branches, their life and everything surrounding them, the way everything moves. Very beautiful eye you have. So nice. Thank you.

@msehruz7489 Год назад

Love your videos. Beautiful scenes. Great ending!!!!

@andreaandiwilliams9232 Год назад

Loved your video and your heater is doing its job!! The woods were so beautiful and serene , loved the steam it sure was so peaceful to watch. Always enjoy your videos and the ending to this clip was very crafty and a fun way to end your adventure!!

@GoTakeADrive Год назад

Welcome to New Hampshire Slim! Hancock Campground has always been my go to, during winter my pals and I will just hang out on a site during the day and sit around a fire and eat BBQ. Hope everyone was as pleasant as we usually are here. Come back soon

@tomheath7146 Год назад

Been to Hancock a few times very nice place.

@thrivingnow7843 Год назад

Beautiful video with inspiring music in the background. Ah Spring is around the corner. Thank you. 🥰🌵🏜️

@brucewallace3860 Год назад

Your winter journeys are some of your best videography. Thank you for sharing your talent, and our Mother Nature. Safe travels!

@MarianRehersals Год назад

I’m in the Pacific Northwest (damp) and have a similar pair of gloves. “Snowboarder gloves,”they were called. Mine got wet from sweating and were impossible to dry because of the waterproof outlet layer. Ended up separating the lining from the outside with a seam ripper at the wrist. Now I can separate the two layers and dry them separately. Put back together, they work as well as before. Envy you your winter camping! And your travelogue of places I’d like to go.

@tinydancer7426 Год назад

Couldn't you have just turned the gloves inside out? I guess there is some merit to those glove dryers I have seen advertised.

@darrenobryan3746 Год назад

Hey slim, great video as usual!! Your trick for the toilet adventure was different. I’ve never heard of that before but what ever works!! Lol!! I’ve used 1” styrofoam sm, cut to the same shape as ( or close to) the seat. It’s portable and if someone is heavier they could bump it up to 2”. The best part is it’s like having a heated toilet seat!! Lol!!

@Wythegoodsense Год назад

I’ve used the foam products from the garden section of your store. They are great at kneeling in the snow to capture water too. AND a great thing to sit upon in the outhouse. Like the others have said another great production. Thanks, Mike

@dakotaprojectify Год назад

Out of all the camping channels I've viewed. I truly enjoy yours. I've adapted several of your ideas to being on the road in my semi truck. Keep up the good work and fun camping. Thanks for your hard work on these videos for us.

@susanw8471 Год назад

Beautifully videoed as always. I can't even imagine how long the editing in the different segments took you. The surprise ending was unexpected but very entertaining. Thank you for all your efforts.

@MAGA-kw3ol Год назад

Hey Slim, wonderful video I have been there in the fall it’s beautiful but I agree in winter that should’ve free

@bafergs Год назад

Beautiful location. How did the battery warmer work for you? I wish I was out there enjoying winter as you do.

@SlimPotatohead Год назад

The battery warmer did great. The next video will be a follow-up on all the winter improvements I made. Thanks! SP

@MsCar2008 Год назад

@kathyb.amptmann2547 Год назад

@skippy2752 Год назад

Wow, There ya are. I thought i`d lost ya. Glad to find you again. As always a great video and thanks for taking us along with you on another outstanding road trip. Love the new trailer.

I just had to do the exact same repairs to my 2004 liberty - it's amazing how much quieter they are afterward. I love these winter videos so much - stay safe!!!

@loreneknight9755 Год назад

Always a delightful time, hanging out with you, Slim. You always go above & beyond with your keen camera work. Much respect to you for pushing yourself to get out there!! Discovering this great nation is part of what your all about. And tinkering & refining anything that is in front of you. And, hey, the gloves were a splurge, but your worth it, my friend. Powerful, safe & extraordinary travels to you!

@EerieVonIII8574 Год назад

Lol!! The ending was funny! Thank you for the video Slim

@RexStarlite Год назад

Slim, you're a real minimalist. Your rig is simple and your equipment needs are at a truly basic needs level, you extract the true essentials for life out of the small and crucial things we all need to exist comfortably. Keep the wonderful videos coming. They're great!

@joycefranklin8981 Год назад

I have camped several times along the "Kanc", in September. Live in NE Ohio . This brought back so many memories, thank you. I appreciate all the work associated with the camera work that your videos require but the results are fantastic! Since I am 82 with health problems and camp in my minivan I doubt I will get back to this area again so THANK YOU for your great videos!

@pagewhite8177 Год назад

The Slim Potatohead Incident! Ha! Beautiful footage, great video. Thank you so much.

@doncarlton4858 Год назад

That's why I loved skiing in that area of New Hampshire, lots and lots of snow! I grew up in North Central Massachusetts and visited the White Mountains area many times. Hilarious ending! You spent some time editing that one! 🤣
