Trivia
While in their debut appearance in "Donald's Nephews" Huey, Dewey and Louie are portrayed as being very mischievous, in this second appearance they are depicted as being much more mature, resourceful and helpful towards their uncle.

Goofs
When Huey, Dewey, Louie pushes the round boulder over a cliff to block the geyser, the geyser erupts even bigger sending the rock up to Donald Duck and the Bear jumps on the rock and chases him even when night comes. Both Donald and the grizzly bear would've got tired very quickly due to being covered in fur and feathers and they would've likely fallen off the round boulder rock even before night came.

Quotes
Huey: Goodnight...
Dewey: ...Unca...
Louie: ...Donald.

Happy campers

In this cartoon Donald is taking his nephews (no a helluva lot more well-behaved) on a camping trip in the wilderness. Donald is their leader and well...you can pretty much guess that every time he tries to show off to them that disaster will promptly follow.

Be it chopping down a tree, pitching a tent or fending off wild bears, Donald does it all badly. And funny. And this is the first cartoon in which Donald actually appears cute instead of frowning and shouting all the time. It's also one of the few cartoons in which is face doesn't turn firetruck red through sheer anger.

For a short made in 1938 it's brilliantly drawn and very funny.
