Welcome to Coleman Outdoors, the channel where Eric Coleman (yep, that's me) takes you on adventures that may or may not end with me questioning my life choices. If you're into, backpacking, hiking, camping, and fishing – or just like watching someone fumble through the wilderness – you’re in the right place.

Quick PSA:
In case you're wondering, this channel has zero ties to The Coleman Company, Inc. or any big corporate outdoor conglomerate. I’m just a guy with a camera and an unhealthy obsession with hiking gear. No corporate sponsorships, no fancy endorsements – just pure, unfiltered outdoor fun.

So, buckle up (or, you know, strap on a backpack) and let’s "go outside and do something" together!

21 days on the John Muir Trail. I haven't even been home for 48 hours and it seems like a distant memory. So many pictures and videos and not a single one represents my entire experience. I don't think it's possible.

One thing is for certain, I am grateful. We are not alone and that this world was created for us.

Where is your Inyo?

I'm still here folks, hikin' peaks and takin' names. I appreciate folks asking my whereabouts. I've been busy and a little lazy with the channel. I'm not going anywhere. A big trip coming this summer. I'll be back.😎

15 years on YouTube!! This video started it all. There was almost a 10 year gap between this and when I really started making outdoor content, but I was having a hard time finding my niche! I keep telling Jake, we're going to make a squeal to this cinematic masterpiece, but I just haven't made the time. Although, it's finally got a proper thumbnail after all these years. Let's hope this drives some new traffic. Maybe when this baby hits 1,000 views it will have earned a part 2.

Climbed Mt Whitney for the second time in my life on July 8th, 2022. You know I love peak bagging.
What's your tallest peak?
