Peeing in Nature is one of the most liberating feelings Man can experience. The outdoor relief makes for wonderful break on a long road trip. Cameron McKirdy filmed these videos while stretching in the woods of Oregon, USA. Watch him take aim at a plant off the highway, and piss by a pond! Beats filling a plastic bottle while in motion. HA!!! I’ve never thrown one out of my van window. Promise.

Cameron McKirdy from Survival Bros gives you a tour of his vehicle, and explains why he uses the gear he has. Living in a van allows him to be more free, and not answer to a Boss. He can nap, or go thrifting when he wants to. It’s a challenging lifestyle, but vandwelling can be done, if you’re creative, and easy-going. #vanlife

Chill out on the North Fork of the McKenzie River with #SurvivalBros and Papilio Oregonius butterflies. This is the official insect of Oregon State. Filmed near Cougar Hot Spring, in the Willamette National Forest. SUBSCRIBE NOW ON YOUTUBE FOR MORE!
What a spectacular day this was by the water. The sun scorched my naked body. It burned getting into the 106 degree water later that evening at Terwilliger Hot Springs. I did dive headfirst into the crystal clear river. Exhilarating. However, do you have any idea how hard it is to hold your junk with one hand? Just saying, it wasn’t staying put. Thankfully through the power of editing, the family jewels remained in safe keeping.
I ventured to this sacred spot two weeks earlier, and saw the same collection of butterflies! I counted 40. I’m amazed they were still there when I returned. My friends are posted up hard in heaven. They danced around me as I paid my respects. This area produces insanely large moths too, like this one I spotted heading into a shower last summer.

Survival Bros goes outside for Earthing or Grounding by walking barefoot in the dirt
By Cameron McKirdy I sling a day pack on my back nearly every day. I’ve mentioned the types of things I have in it before, like gear, food, and a warm change of clothes. So when I discovered the Ribz Front Pack, I was stoked. This innovative, steroid injected version of a fanny pack solves many of the challenges I face when backpacking. Here I am with it on the Hummocks Trailhead near Mount St. Helens in Washington State. 
One issue I have with a regular backpack is I’m constantly taking it off to grab water, my cell phone, or something else that isn’t handy. With Ribz Wear, it’s all right in front of me, so I can continue trail blazing. I also mention in the video how backpacks catch on trees when I have to duck under them. It usually happens a few times each hike, and I practically have to crawl under the obstacle. With my gear in front, navigating through heavy brush is considerably easier. The best part of this system is the pack is easy to adjust. My Dad’s chest and waist are smaller than mine, so after he used it, a quick tug on the straps in back and in front made it comfortable again for me. Plus, Ribz have long, padded shoulder straps, so it feels like a natural extension of your body. 
Check out the map of different Mount St. Helens Adventures. Back to the Ribz Front Pack review, I must mention the Large version I tested can hold absurd amounts, with an 11 liter capacity. Even with it packed full, I was able to swing my arms freely. My dad wore it, and noted that you could still use hiking poles with it on. Ribz makes smaller Front Packs with 8 liters of room too. Internally, there are separate pouches to keep smaller items organized. These elastic lined compartments will hold all your tools close to your ribs, and prevent them from rattling around. We both ran with it, and the pack remained snug, not bouncing around, or swaying side to side.
In conclusion, the Ribz Front Pack is an excellent tool itself. The quality is unbelievable, and far superior to what I expected. It’s lightweight, at only 11 ounces, so it beats a backpack there too. However, I think it would be best suited for use with a rear pack, so the weight of your supplies can be evenly distributed forward and back, thus giving you better posture than wearing one or the other. But if you’re into ultralight backpacking, Ribz might be a dream come true. You can’t machine wash Ribz, but it cleans up nicely with a wet rag. I love the Cordura brand water resistant, ripstop material it’s fabricated with. I will be sporting my Ribz for a long time. I like it so much I want the smaller 8 liter pack too for shorter trips, and cross country running. I just don’t know which color to get next. Check out http://www.ribzwear.com to grab yours.

I shot this HD video while camping in the Olympic National Forest near Forks Washington. It’s truly an amazing park. You must visit. I tented right near the river, and there’s plenty of challenging hiking trails nearby. These elk were amazing, and quite noisy. They were making all kinds of crazy calls. I wanted to pet one. Another part of me saw dinner.

If I need an extra boost of energy, and power before an extreme outdoor adventure, I may take these healthy supplements. Bee pollen, royal jelly, and propolis are a superfood. I’ve heard of yogis living off only bee pollen, spring water, and sunlight. I can’t get enough of them all. Maca root is a serious herb, improving stamina and endurance. You gotta try it. Finally, vitamin B12 is also known to increase energy. It’s great for your nervous system too. Do your homework on these dietary supplements. I got them from my local health food store. They help me go beast mode on long hikes, and bike rides. Maybe these can help you too.
Today I felt like exploring. So I biked to The Mill Ponds in Seaside Oregon. The ground was soggy, so I had to pedal lightly to avoid getting sprayed with mud from my tires. Hearing the blue birds chirp relaxed me instantly. Beats traffic noise.
Right before I got to my favorite spot, I noticed a park bench upside down in the water. I wondered where it went. It’s been a few months since I sat on it from the lookout. Without hesitation I laid my bike down, and tromped through the sticker bushes to get to it. I had seen 2 homeless teens camping there before, and I’m pretty sure they trashed the place.
I yanked that bench out of the pond, and brought it back to its home. Now everyone can rest and enjoy that epic view again. The seat wasn’t in bad shape, or soaked entirely, so I chilled there for a few. Just another reminder that you can either make the world a better place, or screw it up for the rest of us. There aren’t many public spaces left, so treat them with respect.
